Requites their leaves.

SEEN IN HAWAII.
Barking Sands A Missionary Who
Reads Greek at Night—A Grass House.
tetter in Providence Journal.
Among the curiosities in Western
Kauai are the famous barking sands. This
phenomenon of sound is attributed to the
attrition of the angular grains of sand
against each other when the mass Is in
slight movement. It is especially notice
able in dry times, and scarcely percepti
ble after a rain. Happily, one may see
the thing, or rather hear it, on a ’small
scale. It is common for those residing in
the region to keep a bag of sand at home.
When this is taken in the hands and re
versed repeatedly, allowing the sand to
fall, first to one end of the bag and then to
the other, a faint sound results, though it
requires some imagination to liken it to a
bark oi a yelp. The same phenomenon
may be observed at Manchester-by-the-
Sea in Massachusetts and other localities
in the United States.
During our stay in Waima we went
down the face ot the red cliffs to the bot
tom of the valley,a distanceof some hun
dred feet, by a rude path, whose stones
were laidin earlier years by the veteran
missionary beneath whose roof we found
shelter. In the garden at the foot of the
pall were twenty-five kinds of fruit, also
planted and trained by him. This same
man, who has spent a lifetime in this re
tired spot, has the reputation of being the
finest classical scholar in the islands. • 1
noticed at family prayers that he read
with great deliberation and from an un
usual-looking New Testament, and I found
on investigation that he was reading from
the Greek, translatingat the moment. On
his study table lay anew and abstruse
philosophical work, with critical notes in
pencil on its margins.
On this pedestrian excursion we saw
one of the grass houses now so rare. It
was no hut, but the grass was neatly
braided in large strands. Its green had
changed by age to a silvery tint, which
was very pretty. The interior was lined
with rushes, and in this climate one could
not ask a more comfortable abodg. The
principal room was a small shop, where
we tarried to rest a little and refresh our
selves with a glass of mineral water,
which we were surprised to find in this
out of the way place. The owner was a
fine-looking man. three-forths Hawaiian,
one-fourth while. He was evidently
above the average of his class, and the
blood of the old cheifs is in his veins. He
is a worker on Hawaiian woods, anil
specimens of his skill in this line won
admiration in the Hawaiian department
ol the Centennial exhibition, in Philadel
phia, in 1*76. We learned that some
years since bis wife became a leper.
Though refusiug to comply in form with
the law for isolation, the husband did
observe it in fact. Close by their home
he built a small but separate house for the
poor victim of the disease, of whom he
took the best care, though refusing to
deliver her up, locking her in for her own
protection. Oae happy day for her, when
engaged in some simple duty, she sudden
ly tell and instantly expired". The disease,
which had nev# displayed itself in a
loathsome form, hadprobatily reached the
seat of life. He evidently has a happy
home once more, and appears devoted to
his young wife and little daughter. The
former is a Hawaiian belle, but has a
sensible look, her countenance beaming
with intelligence and good will. As we
were passing another house not far dis
tant, we saw a little girl whose swollen
lace, too old for her size, indicated to the
practiced eye the presence of the dread
disease, “.'■he was my pupil a year ago,”
said my friend, “with no outward indica
tions of the leprosy. The father of the
child, a Hawaiian dandy, is one of thir
teen children, whose mother received a
medal lor her success in rearing so large
a family.” Hawaiian women are deplor
ably deficient in maternal skill, and
infants often die in consequence of this
ignorance and inexperience. At present
there are but two births to three deaths
on the island of Kauai.
BABY INSURANCE.
A New Business Springing Up in Ohio—
How It Pays.
Cleveland Leader.
“You see. if I don’t prove she is dead I
won’t get the insurance, it is necessary
for uie to get the certificate of the doctor
who tended her.”
Thus spoke a plainlv-dressed old lady
who cal.’cd at the health office. She was
the proprietor of a baby boardiug-house
and was in seacb of the* certificate of the
death of an infant that had been under
her charge.
“The eh Id’s mother brought it to me.”
she said, "and 1 kept it a long time. The
woman tailed to pay the board until she
had got Into my debt about sl9. One day
I went to the store alter a loaf of bread,
and while I was gone the mother came
and took the child away. It has since
died. aud she is trying to keep me from
knowing where its death occurred in or
der to keep me out of the insurance. If
1 would get that, however, it would near
ly pay me for the child’s board.”
A%she finished speaking the woman
took on her lap a neatly-dressed child
which accompanied her, saying:
"This is one of my boarders.”
"How much do you charge a week to
care for the babies?” was asked ot her.
‘•Two dollars,” was the reply, “and 1
do all their washing.”
‘•Are they mostly the children of work
ing women?”
“No, not at all. The little one that died
was the daughter of a woman who was
never married, and she brought it to me to
board.”
“You spoke about insurance. AVhy do
you insure them?”
“So that when they die on my hands l
can give them a decent burial.’ Now, the
little one that was taken away was about
a year and a hall old, and the insurance
on it amounted to over $lB. It costs only
5 cents a week to insure a baby, and the
amouut to be realized on its death varies
with the age of the child.”
Further investigation showed that there
is an agency in Cleveland at which baby
insurance is one of the branches ot busi
ness. Circulars are issued by tbe agent
showing the immense profits made on a
small investment. Lists are published of
the children insured in Cincinnati,
Cleveland, Dayton and other cities. There
can be no doubt that the insurance busi
ness combined with the boarding-house is
a most profitable enterprise.
A CARGO OF CATS.
Remarkable Inhabitants of the Aban
doned Schooner Maggie M. Klverg.
Philadelphia Timet.
“We were rolling along at about ten
knots an hour,” said Capt. Ferlan, ol the
Austrian bark Luigia I*., now in this
port; “the wind was west-northwest and
we were braced sharp up to make the
most of it. The position of the bark by
dead reckoning was one hundred miles
north of the Bermudas. I had just sat
down to breakfast with lhe_ mate, when
the second officer, putting his head down
the companion-way, sang out:
“‘Vessel in distress; about two points
on the lee bow, sir.’
“ ‘Keep her away a little,’ I said, ‘aud
1 will be on deck directly.’
“In about two hours we had raised the
craft so that we could see that she was a
dismasted and abandoned schooner. She
had evidently been adrift for many
months. The mate, who had been ex
amining ner intently through the glass,
suddenly exclaimed:
“ ‘There are animals moving about on
top of her deck-house. I cannot make
out what they are.’
“Seizing the glass, I could see some
small objects moving about on the house,
but what they were I could not imagine.
Directing the man at the wheel to keep
her away, we ran down close aboard the
hulk, and imagine our surprise when we
discovered that the moving objects were
cats.”
“Cats!” m
“Yes, cats and kittens. Twenty or
thirty of 'em. They clambered up and
down the stumps of the masts and ran
around the deck-house and 6tood up like
monkeys, with their forepaws beating the
air. while thev vowleil like mad.”
“Great Scott!” broke in the mate, “1
never saw so many cats in my life.”
••Looking at her stern,” continued the
Captain, “as we swept by, the name of
tbe vessel we made out to be the Maggie
M. Rivers. This vessel was set adrift in
January last, off Cape Hatteras, and has
floated about the North Atlantic ever
since. I suppose that in the hurry of
abandoning the vessel the cats were
forgotten, and they multiplied while the
schooner was drifting about all summer.”
Advice to Hotnen.
Mbs. Winslow's Soothing Strop
snould always be used wnen children are
cutting teeth. It relieves the little suf
ierer at once; it produces natural, quiet
sleep by relieving the child from pain, and
the little cherub awakes as “bright as a
button.” It is very pleasant to taste. It
soothes the child, softens the gums, al
lays all pain, relieves wind, regulates
the bowels, and is the best known remedy
lor diarrhoea, whether arising from teeth
ing or other causes. 25 cents a bottle.

Demons vs. Malaria.
Docto: s are growing sensible and seek
ing remedies for diseases among the sim
ple things of nature instead of confining
their researches to the platitudes of sci
entific twaddle. Doctor, or Prof. Crudeli,
presented the most interesting paper
which was read before the recent Inter
national Medical Congress at Copenhagen,
and it was devoted to the experiences of
the Professor in proving that the common
lemon, while the cheapest, most simple
and natural, was also the most harmless
ar.d effectual preventive of that univer
sally distributed vegetable germ called
malaria, but which revels in mud swamps
and attains to its greatest luxuriance in
permanently moist land 6 uncovered to the
sunshine. Prof. Crudeli says: “Cut up one
lemon, peel and all, into thin slices, put
it into three glassfuls of w ater, and boil
it down to one glassful. Strain the liquid
through linen and set it aside to cool.
Drink the whole amount when fasting
(that is to say, on an empty stomach).
As the decoction possesses cathartic prop
erties the dose should not be repeated too
frequently, not more than once a day, or
every other day, according to individual
susceptibility.”
After all, the wise come back to nature
to find that she has placed all things about
right, and all we have to do is to “accept
the situation” and learn the order of her
incomparable arrangements. Who can
suppose that she ever meant to keep man,
her “Lord of Creation,” out of the dense
forests, low lands and marshy seacoa9ts,
constituting more than one-third of all
the continents, by concealing there a
deadly enemy so subtile as to steal upon
his vitals with the very air he breathes?
These localities and their conditions were
doubtless as necessary to the grand com
plexity and harmony of nature as other
localities and conditions, and the lord of
the manor has but to receive his educa
tion before he goes forth to administer his
royal estates, or, even the veriest ass may
humiliate his lerdship with a lesson his
hostler had learned before him. Man’s
knowledge was not given to liira like that
of the animals, all in a lump, to do the
things most fitting without instruction.
On the contrary, he knowsabsolutly noth
ing until instructed. But mark you!
Nature recognizes at once tbe God-like
stature aud reason-endowed capacity of
her lord, and not only yields him royal
food and raiment, but opens her secret
councils and throws wide her doors ol
knowledge for his elevation and refine
ment. Thus he is able to discriminate in
the course of time, to inquire, to test and
prove the condition and mc-aningof things
around him. Evidently low lands and
malaria were not created to bring about
his death any more thau waters were
made to drown him; nor was his stomaCh
designed for an apothecary’s shop because
there were mineral and vegetable king
doms.
Nature is a mighty laboratory of knowl
edge, leading to all good things, and he is a
student, the promising heir of the rich
treasures, to iuherit as soon as he has
learned to manage them with propriety,
ne may prove indiscreet and lose his life
in the pursuit, but wisdom, the child of
experience, admonishes him to move with
caution, to pause and think—in other
words, to use his talisman, his reasoning
faculties, if he would win the prize. By
these be will triumph over the difficulties
and harmonize the seeming incongruities.
By them he will understand the distribu
tion of plants and minerals, the reason cf
their localization; and in the final perfec
tion of his knowledge he will learn that
life and health on the earth and, conse
quently, human happiness, aud to reach
their maximum through his understand
ing and ability to use and administer the
productions of Nature in harmony with
hs own organic structure.
Treatment Tor an Orchard.
An old orchardist says: “Give your or
chard a top dressing of wood ashes, say
150 bushels to the acre.” But where, in
the name of common sense, would one
owner of an orchard, in an hundred, get
the 150 bushels of wood ashe9? It might
do to tell a man that whose orchard was
on the frontier or, by cbance, bordered
some woodyswamp or primeval forest;
but this country is settling up and all tbe
wood available for ashes in such bulk has
long since disappeared from vast sections
now covered with farms and vineyards
and orchards. But the same writer pro
vides an alternative. “If you can get
lime,” he continues, “put 50 to 100 bush
els to the acre.” That is more reasonable,
for lime is more abundant and will last
longer, but the quantity leaves large dis
cretion, which should be governed by ex
perience or good advice. How will you
know the land lias not enough lime al
ready? If certain of its need it w ill be
properly used, but if such a quantity is
used we should say that it would also be
well to give it something to feed on—some
thing to work on ana dissolve—something,
when dissolved, that will constitute a fer
tilizer. The lime itself is not a fertilizer,
but it will turn other materials into fer
tilizers, provided such materials are there,
and, tberetore, we say the orchidist who
puts 50 or 100 bushels of lime on his or
chard should be sure to accompany it
with a good epating of vegetable matter,
for few soils need lime witnout such ad
ditional matter. •
Sheep for t he South.
On this subject Prof. J. P. Stelle, of the
Mobile llegister , has been carefully col
lecting information for the use of South
ern farmers, and from the best authorities
he publisnes the following on
BREEDS.
The Xew Yoricer says no class of farm
stock yields a better return than sheep
intelligently cared lor, and there are lew
farms which would not be directly bene
fited by the introduction of them. They
are easily managed, are first-rate fertil
izing machines, good farm scavengers
and yielders of two harvests annually.
While the best results will be obtained on
rolling uplands, they will thrive in low
lying districts, provided these be dry.
T'he breeds that chiefly interest the aver
age farmer aie the Leicester, Cotswold,
Bouth Down, Shropshire anil Merino.
The Leicester lor early maturity excels
all others, provided it gets what it likes.
It is nothing uncommon for a shearling
wether to weigh 230 pounds. Tne meat,
however, is too fat. The ewes are not
prolific and are rather scanty milkers.
The lambs are delicate for the first month,
but, once started, they make very rapid
growth. The sheep yields a heavy fleece
ol coarse, long wool, commanding a low
price.
The Cotswold is the oldest authentic
English breed. The ewes average one
and-one-fourth lamb a vear, are fairly
good mothers and great eaters. Cotswoltls
hold their wool weft and for a longer time
than the Leicester s. Their wool in quan
tity, quality and price is much on a par
with the Leicester. As mutton sheep,
they are a little inferior to the Leicester
m weight and rapidity of maturing, but
distinctly superior to them in the quality
of their meat. They are liable to suffer
from rapid changes in temperature and,
like the Leicesters, they will not thrive in
large flocks; they should not be more than
25 to 30 in one “bunch.”
The South Down, England's favorite
mutton, is a breed difficult to overpraise.
A flock will vield one-and-one-half lamb
per ewe, the’ lambs coming strong, lively
and able to look out for themselves. The
ewes are excellent mothers and excellent
milkers, yielding enough ler two lambs.
The South Down maintains a regularity
or evenness of flesh better thau any other
breed, while in hardiness and capacity to
adapt itself to circumstances it is not
surpassed. It yields a lair-sized fleece of
very fine, medium-long wool, which com
mands at least second-best price. Al
though a medium-sized sheep, the shear
ling wethers, properly cared for, weigh
160 pounds, and the mutton will bring one
cent per pound more than that of the long
wools. A larger flock can also be pas
tured together, for these sheep, though
incessaut eaters, are much livelier in
motion and better foragers than the Lei
cesters and Cotswoids.
The Shropshire Down is a celiab’.e breed
er and good mother, will average one-and
one-half lamb a year and yields a close,
heavy fleece cf medium-long wool ef fairly
fine texture. It is a larger, leggier sheep
than the South Down, but has not such
good forequarters. When extreme excel
lence of both meat and fleece is not so
much a desideratum as weight of both,
then the Shropshire will lead the South
Down.
The Merino, as a wool-bearing sheep,
stands pre-eminent as well for the fineness
as tbe felting quality of its wool, which is
likely always to command a relatively
high price. Asa mutton sheep it is no
where, being small and maturing slowly,
while the mutton has a woolly, greasy
flavor. It is best fitted for the great flocks
of tbe Western rau hes, where, on account
of the cheapness of the land, sheep can be
bred at a profit for the value of the wool
alone. A cross of a Cotswold on a Merino
is a sheep of considerable merit, having a
carcass much heavier than that of the
Merino and yieldiug an excellent fleece of
combing wool, with a notable improve
ment in the quality of the mutton.
The common American ewe Is usually a
mixture of the long and short wool breeds,
and among such sheep it is quite possible
to pick out the nucleus of a flock, well
woaled, rcomy and ol good 9ize, and by
crossing these for three generations with
thoroughbred sires the result would be a
flock of sufficiently fixed type for all use
ful purposes.
FARM AND STOCK NOTES.
C. S. Brice, of Woodward, S. C., tells
the readers of the New York World that
dry arsenic applied to warts on mules
will soon cure them. Says he has just
tried this remedy with success.
It i9 estimated by an English authority
that an inch ot rain falling upon one acre
of ground is sufficient to fill a tank 20 feet
square and 11 feet deep. Tne same quan
tity would also measure over 15 cubic feet
on every side.
An account of a profitable strawberry
crop is given in tbe liural Home. It was
raised by Mr. B. J. Case, of Sodus, N. Y.,
his whole cultivated ground being an acre
and a half. One-third of an acre was in
strawberries, from which he picked 20,000
quarts.
The Poultry Keeper (Chicago) recom
mends as a remedy for chicken cholera a
mixture of four parts hyposulphite of
soda, two parts boracic acid, two parts
extract of logwood, one part rosin, one
part alum and one part ginger. Give
each fowl a full teaspeonful in a little
water.
A Vermont sheep raiser says that the
best method of doctoring sheep for foot-rot
is to wet every foot of every sheep in the
flock, sound or lame, thoroughly with ker
osene or coal oil, and put what sulphur
>ou can take in the thumb and Anger be
tween the hoors of each foot. Keep them
in a dry place for twelve hours. Repeat
this operation in about two weeks and
you will have no more trouble.
There is an art in raising early pullets
so as to have them begin to lay soon. The
object should be to breed from parents
that mature early. In selecting a cock
and hens from which to breed early pul
lets, select a cock that throws out his
hackle and tail feathers early, as this in
dicates his early maturity. Then mate
him with old hens and hatch the pullets
as early in the year as possible. Such
pullets will hegiu to lay in October and
will then lay all through the winter.
Perhaps tbe largest prune orchard in
the world is situated one mile south from
Saratoga, Cal., and contains 16,000 trees.
It was recently sold for $71,000. It is sit
uated on a gentle slope trem the loot of
the mountain to the Los Gato road and
can beta Ken in at a glance. Near by is
the famous Rice orchard, containing fruit
and nut trees of almost every known va
riety; also the O'Banion & Kent orchard
of 80 acres, for which SIIO,OOO advance has
been offered and refused.
The Farmers’ Club ot Eimira, N. Y.,
has adopted tbe excellent plan ot an oc
casional implement trial, where the farm
ers can spend a day or two near home and
see all sorts of larm implements In prac
tical use as operated by skillful men. It
leads to the use.of a great many more im
proved implements and machinery, and
to quite au extent guards the farmer
against the purchase of those not suited
to his wants. The manufacturers of good
implements have nothing to fear from
such trials, aud if there are makers of
worthless ones they deserve exposure.
If growing fruit as a business you must
learn the cheapest method of producing it.
It pays to fertilize well, to give good cul
ture,to offer in attractive style in market
and to raise the best varieties, but there
is a limit to high culture and to everything
connected with the business. Every man
must be his own judge as to when he has
reached this limit. Some men can grow
fruit at half the cost of others. Some men
can manufacture shoes for less than oth
ers. Good common sense carries a man
a long way toward success in this coun
try.
The following is said by the American
Stock Journal to bean infallible remedy
for chicken cholera: Make a mixture of
two ounces each of red pepper, alum,,
resin and flowers of sulphur, and put it
in their food in proportions of one table
spoonful to three pints of scalded meal.
In severe cases give about one-third of a
teaspoontul in a meal pellet cnce a day to
each fowl, putting a small lump of alum
in their drinking water. The writer says:
“I have tried the above ingredients with
marked success; have cured fowls in the
last stages of the disease. 1 make it a
practice now to give my fowls some of it
once or twice a week, and there are no
symptoms of any disease among them.”
Some genius has been calculating val
ues as related to human energy in vari
ous departments of life, and cites tbe
following illustrations: “The British
poet Laureate can take a worthless sheet
of paper and, by writing a poem on it,
make it worth $65,000; that’s genius.
Vanderbilt can write a few words on a
sheet of paper and make it worth $5,000,-
000; that’s capital. The United States
can take an ounce and a quarter of gold
and stamp on it an ‘eagle bird’ and make
it worth S2O; that’s money. The me
chanic can take the material worth $5
and make it into a watch worth $100;
that’s skill. The merchant can take an
article worth 25 cents and sell it for $1;
that’s business.
Paper bottles are now made on a large
scale in Germany and Austria. The paper
must be well sized. The following is said
to be a good recipe for the paper: Ten parts
of rags, forty of straw, fifty of brown wood
pulp. The paper is impregnated or coated
on both sides with sixty parts of defibri
nated fresh blood, thirty-five parts of lime
powder, five parts of sulphate of alumnia.
After drying ten or twelve rolled leaves
are coated again, placed over each other
and then placed in heated molds. The
albumen in the blood forms a combination
on pressure with the lime which is per
lectly proof against spirits, etc. The bot
tles are made in two parts, which are
joined afterward.
For a good common whitewash, take a
piece of stone lime as large as a child’s
head, having it new and entirely unslaked
and put it into an iron kettle that will
hold a pailful. Tour over it a few quarts
of boiling water at night; cover and let
stand till morning; then fill up with water
and set on the stove. Add a handful of
salt and stir occasionally till hot. Pour off
into a pail, and if too thick add more
water. Allow it to bee >me cool before
using, as the smoke will strike through
worse if used hot. For a nicer white
wash use Spanish white—about ten pounds
for an ordinary room. Pour warm water
over it and let stand for a few hours. Melt
four ounces of white glue in a little water
and add.
It is as natural for vegetation to grow
on the fields to protect the soil as it Is for
hair to grow on the head. Those plants
whose value we have not yet discovered
are called weeds. If one class of plants
monopolize a certain spot, watch how soon
it robs the soil of the food peculiar to it,
and how another class will spring up.
This is nature’s plan of rotation, and
every principle of rotation and manuring
may be traced back to it. In this way we
learn the mistakes which farmers make,
not only in false systems of rotation, but
also in continually applying the same
kind ol manure on the same plan of treat
ment. By varying the modes of treatment
manures can be rotated as well as crops;
in fact, manures could be rotated to such
an extent that there would be little neces
sity in rotating the crops.
Th *highest velocity that has been im
parted to shot is given as 1,626 feet per
second, belnz equal to a mile in 3.2 sec
onds. The velocity of the earth at the
equator, due to rotation on its axis, is
1,000 miles per hour, or a mile in 3.6 sec
onds; and thus, if a cannon ball was fired
due west and cquld maintain its initial
velocity, it would beat the sun In its ap
parent journey round the earth.
HOUSEHOLD NOTES.
The little books of rice paper that cigar
ette smokers use for the manufacture of ho
moeopathic smokes are handy things for
peop’e who wear spectacles. The paper
is said to be the best thing in the world to
wipe lenses with.
A Tretty Fan, intended to be hung on
the wall, has the upper halt covered with
dark green piush and the lower part with
bright red surah silk shirred on. A biMch
of golden roils is tied on in front with a
bow of bright ribbons.
Dark Marble Cake.— Two cups dark
brown sugar, one cup ot butter, one cup
ol molasses, one cup sour milk, five cups
flour, the yolks of seven eggs, two table
spoonfuls of cinnamon, one"of cloves, one
of allspice, one ol nutmeg and one tea
spoonful of scila.
Egg Mold.—Four ounces of butter, four
ounces of sugar, the yolks o( eight eggs,
the grated peel and the juice of half a
lemon, and a tablespoonful of flour must
be whipped to a foam, then stir in the
whites of four eggs in a stiff snow. Bake
it in a buttered form or dish.
Potato Mould.—Whisk three eggs
with two ounces of sugar and a little
grated lemon peel, then stir in a pint of
cream and enough grated cold potatoes to
form a very thick batter, which mu9t be
sostiff that it will notdropfrom the spoon.
Bake it in a well-buttered mold.
Poison.—lf poison of any kind has been
taken into the stomach an emetic should
be given as quickly as possible. Mustard
and w arm water, or salt and warm water,
or ipecac, are effectual. Of the latter,
give sixty grains. If vomiting, drink
freely of warm water or warm milk until
the stomach is thoroughly washed out.
Pincushion.—A novelty in the shape
of a pincushion cover is to cover a thick
cushion of medium size with satin, then
cover one corner with very 9heer white
muslin. This should be cut in the form
of a triangle, and where the muslin ends
and the satin begins put a jabot of lace
there. The effect is both pretty and quite
new.
Almond Mold.— Stir three ounces of
butter to a cream, then mix iu four ounces
.of sugar, the yolks of six eggs, four ounces
of almonds, sliced thin, and when the
above has been thoroughly 6tirred, add
the whites of six eggs, whisked to a firm
snow, stir the latter lightly. Steam in a
well-buttered mold, with sugar sprinkled
in over the butter.
Coffee Cake. —To make one good-sized
loaf take one beaten egg, one-half cup ot
molasses, two-thirds of a cup of brown
sugar, one very small cup of butter, same
sized cup of very strong cold coffee, one
teaspoonful of cream of tartar, one scant
teaspoonful of saleratus, one cup of rai
sins; flavor with nutmeg, cinnamon and
allspice; put in enough flour to make as
thick as pound cake.
A Sweet Nudel Dish.— Use fresh made
nudeis, eut line and straight, not rolled.
Put butter into a stewpan and brown tbe
dry nudeis in it, shaking them occasion
ally. When they are nicely colored pour
over them some good milk and let them
stew till soft. Add sugar to sweeten.
Beat two or three eggs and stir them into
the nudeis. Cover and let them steam a
few minutes belore serving.
Cooking Onions.—A very appetizing
way to cook onions is to boil them in salt
and water until they begin to tie tender;
drain the water from them anil wrap each
onion in soft paper; set them side by side
into a dripping pan, let them bake until
done, then put into a vegetable dish and
pour rich brown gravy over them. Span
ish onions are especially nice cooked
this way, as they have so delicate a
flavor.
To Cure Colds, keep a cup of pine tar
and when you feel cold coming on drop
some ol the tar on live coals and inhale
tin* smoke three times a day. It is a great
relief, will often effect a cure on one ap
plication and rarely requires more than
two days to break up a cold. The tar can
he obtained at a drug store. Like all other
remedies, this will be found better for
some persons than for others. No two
systems are exactly alike.
Date Sauce, which is very nice with
bread puddings, is made by stewing dates
in just enough water to cover them; let
them simmer for three-quarters of an hour,
then if the dates are soft rub them through
a colander, beat it until it is light, add
water if it is needed to thin it,’let~it come
to a boil. If you have saved the juice of
fruit when canning it, use this instead of
water to thin the sauce. The juice of cur
rants is especially appetising.
A delicate dish for dessert is made by
paring six ripe, tart apples, cut them In
halves, put half a pound of sugar into a
saucepan, with half a pint of w ater, add
the juice of one lemon and let this boil
until it is thick; then lay in the apples.
When they have simmered until they are
tender, take them out, drain them on a
sieve and let the syrup boil a few min
utes ionger. When the apples and syrup
are both cool put the apples carefully
into a glass dish and pour the syrup over
them.
BITS OF SCIENCE.
Water filtered through porous unglazed
porcelain is absolutely free from microbia.
With a single such vessel, 0.20 metre long
by 0.25 metre in diameter, Mr. C. Cbam
berland obtained about 20 litres a day of
physiologically pure water.
M. l’olncaire contends that the attrac
tion of the moon modifies the intensity of
gravitation. Hence at the equator the
clock is retarded by half a second yearly
by the combined attraction of the sun
and moon, and advanced a second at the
poles.
Experiimnts with the albumenized pa
per of photographers show that light can
not penetrate water to a depth exceeding
some 300 feet; traces of light were dis
tinctly left on the plates at this depth, but
the plates employed were required to be
very sensitive.
In the Province of V iatka, Russia, there
are produced annually 72,000,000 pounds
of tar, 5,400,000 pounds of pitch and 2,160,-
000 pounds of turpentine oil. It is stated
that the annual product of birch oil
amounts to 144,000,000 pounds (4,000,000
poods), an indication that the demand for
it is now great.
A system of rails for street railways, in
troduced by M. Marslllon, is under trial
by the Compagnie des Omnibus, of Paris.
It consists of an ordinary bridge rail and
counter rail of the same section bolted to
an iron longitudinal sleeper. The absence
of wood makes the system a very durable
one, but it is very inelastic.
As to the depth reached in sounding the
ocean, Lieut. Berryman obtained bottom
at 4,580 fathoms a short distance south of
the Banks of Newfoundland. The depth
of the sea is commonly exaggerated. Peo
ple used to think that it ranged from 7,000
to 8,000 fathoms. The average depth is
2,500 fathoms in both the Atlantic and the
Pacific.
Cast iron if heated for several days to
about 900 to I,ooo’ degrees neither melts
nor softens, but is converted into mallea
ble iron. Its surface is covered with a
grayish efflorescence. The fracture is
sometimes of a uniform black, like that of
a lead pencil, and sometimes riddled with
large black points regularly distributed in
the metallic paste.
Until lately most of the supply of sugar
in Denmark was imported. Now the ma
terial for sugar is provided within the
boundaries of the kingdom. Six years
ago the Danes made 2,600,000 pounds ot
beet-root sugar, and four years later the
figures rose to 8,600,000 pounds. The pro
duction ot 1882 exceeded that of 1881 by
fully 2,000,000 pounds.
The effects of the inhalation of fumes of
strong ammonia on the system are deaf
ness and catarrh. In some instances the
troubles are very serious indeed. It will
induce lung disease if there is any ten
dency to weakness of the lungs. The most
valuable remedy is to inhale the fumes of
strong glacial acetic acid which reacts
upon the alkali ammonia.
Lead tanks which withstood sulphuric
acid perfectly, Mr. S. P. Sharpies reports,
were soon destroyed by hydrochloric acid.
In some recent experiments undertaken
to destroy cotton fibre by means of hot
hydrochloric acid it was found that lead
lined vessels were soon rendered useless
by it. Even the cold acid could not be
kept in wooden tanks lined with lead.
The skin or outer cover of the insect con
sists of the cuticle, not comparable with
any part of the skin of a vertebrate and
underlying tissues. The cuticle consists
of two very distinct layers—one thick and
transparent, the other, in which also pig
ment is developed, thin and opaque. The
pigment is disposed in beautiful micro
scopio markings, differing in different
species.
875,000 Capital Prize Won and Paid.
E. B. Lhoste, of the Louisiana National
Bank, certifies that he held for collection
for a depositor in the bank the whole
ticket in tho Louisiana State Lottery
which drew the first capital prize of $75,-
fiOO on Tuesday. Oct. 14, and acknowl
edges it was paid to him in full at the of

Inoculated Poison!
Some eight years ago I bPcamc the victim
of a fearful Blood Poison, communicated by
a nurse to my infant, and thence through the
breast, and suffered for six long years. The
Mercury and Potash treatment seemed to
drive the poison further into my system only
to break out in worse form on other portions
of my body. Three months ago I began taking
Swift’s Specific, and it has cured me sound
and well. It is the greatest blessing which
has come to mankind in years.

“Dr. J. Dkadfield—Dear Sir: For a long
number of years I was a great sufferer from
that ternblediseaseknown as BLIND PILES,
and having tried all I could hear
of, was induced by yourself to use PRYOR’S

this certificate voluntarily, and earnestly
recommend it to all who are suffering with
