How Tom Rouaod Her*
The wife of Tom Guidon is a victim
to imaginary ailments, und is never so
content us when living according lo the
dircc ion of her medical advisor. Dr.
Valentino now understands Iter whims
and oddities so well that ho humors Iter
in overy caprice; if she imagines rheum
at ism in her compluints, tie agrees
with Iter, and proscribes some harmless
potion; if sho thinks byr appetite do
creasing, some bread pills keep liei in
good spirits until the fancied symptoms
of sumo other disease induce her to sond
again for him.
During tlto hist four years Turn has
often wished that his wife would roll
down stairs and break horToollish head,
for tlto reason that tho physician and
upotheenry's bills made n serious inroad
upon his fortune.
About three months ago sho com
plained of a pain in her side 1 und, us
usual, tho doctor was summoned. After
proscribing three or four bottloa of dif-
perent compounds—nil liurmless, bn
rutlier expensive—he said :
“All you want to assist medicine in
effecting a cure is a little rousing. Al
though your ailments is serious, it is not
dungorous. Assume a little energy
nnd you will recover. Remember, rouse
yourself.”
After tbo doctor retired, tho patient
fancied that at least some serious dis
ease was beginning to manifest itself,
and liku a lbol situ went lo bud iu de
spair.
Tom understands the case thorough
ly from long experience, uud suid men
tally, ‘ Shu wants u rousing, does she t
Well, IJI give her a surprise that will
startle Iter.”
Mrs. ILako, nn attractive widow, was
engaged to act in tho capacity of nut so
to Mrs. G. Tlto widow is young, bux-
uni, amiable; and Torn thought bur at
tractive qualities might be made uvuilu-
bio in giving the patient tho necussury
rousing.
A short conversation with Mrs. llnko
resulted m thu nrrnngcmont of a plan,
the execution of which was to induce
Mrs. U. to forever throw physio to tho
dogs.
Luto lite next evening, while the pa
tient pas fruiting nnd groaning, und an
nouncing her intention of giving up (lie
ghost, Tom called Mrs. Make aside,
and suid to her, lit a protended whisper,
but loud enough to be hoard by the in
valid:
"Poor Funny I she is about to tlio nt
lust, ond so you nnd I limy ua well ar
range for our mariugo.”
Tom threw u glance over his shoul
der as ho spoke, and observed tl# dying
patient cease her grouning, and began
to rouse liursulf. Arising quickly to n
silting posture in thu bed to note every
word of tlie conversation, she stared at
them with eyes ns big ns small onions
peeled.
"'Twill be a relief toiler,” continued
Tom, "for site has always been nit inva
lid 1 too liuve Hull'oied us well as she,
but with you tho piotuio of health, ns
iny wife, my happiness will be complete.”
Thu widow threw herself upon Tom’s
shoulders, Iter nrms about liisiiuck, and
began to cltow Ids vest iu mouthfuls, to
mtotber her laughter.
"llow loon shttll wo get married after
sho in dead T" usked Tom, passing his
anus around llio widow’s substantial
waist.
"I suppose yon will bo willing to wait
n week or two ?” simpered Mrs. IJttke,
ns site leaned her head on IjD shoulder
nnd took another mouthful of vest.
Tlto invalid ut'ered an exclamation
und lunded on tho floor-
"You think I am going die do you ?”
site exclaimed. I'll live to spite yon .
both I and lor you”—sho tinned and!
grasped Mrs. ILako by tlie hair—"out
of my bouflo you designing vixen I I
will net ns my own nurse hereafter.”
From Hint day to this Mrs G. lias
onjoyud good Iteullh, and Tom has en
joyed good spirits, because ho liua nut
hud a doctor’s bill to pay. Ho know
how to cure Iter, for she only nouded
rousing, uud Turn roused Iter.

How Panama Hats aro Made.
While they produco for exportation
the best tobacco for cigmelts in tho
world, so amateurs nay, dried fish, tur
tle ogg butter nnd vanilla (from two to
live dollars llio pound,) by far tho great
est staple export nro tbo hats. I hero
abounds in tlio lorost n small fun-palm
tree, which never exceeds ten foot in
height. It is called bonboimxii by tlio
Peruvians, bonbonneo by the Brazilians.
It is found in tlio interior of Peru, 10tj-
uador, New Granada, nnd Venezuela,
usually away from tlio Pacific slope and
has bran cultivated with indifferent suc
cess in Brazil. Tho ouly pluce where
it lloutisltes to a great extent on tlio
Pacific coast is in tho Ecuadorian pro
vince of Munnvi, north of Guayaquil.
This is tho other centre of tho first qual
ity „Panama lint” trndo and manufac
ture, and tlio oaly rival of the Moya-
bnmba. The people ot whito descent
and tlie Indian lialf-breods aro tho muk
ora of tha hats in quostion.
At Mnynbamhu each mnn hits his own
house and lands, lto cultivates a email
quantity of Indian corn, pineapples,
mnndioca and swoot potatoes for liim-
sulf and family and caplin or Guinea
grass for his mule. No hnta nro mndo
in anything like that which wo would
call a "factory,” but in euch man’s
house.
Thopya (straw) is thus prepared:
Tho leaves uf tho bonbonneo are care
fully gathered, so that tho life of the
treo is not in jeopardy; then tlio Indian
slits the loaf with n small knife, his eye
alone guiding tlie hand, so that the
right s'zo is obtained. You will observe
that all Panutna bats have straws of dif
ferent sizes. Nothing can bo more
primitive titan all tlio appliances brought
to hour in the prduothm. Tho "straw”
ns tho split leaf is now culled, is placed
in tlio dew for three nights in suedes
sinn, nnd during tho three intervening
days in tho shade. This curls up the
straw and gives it thut firm, round ap
pearance always to be noticed iu this
kind of hut. The straw is now roudy
for p’aiting, which operation is likothrtt
of all straw platting. Tho children
mnko tlio coarser Imts, tho adults tlm
finer article. The platter begins with
well washed bunds, nnd uu lie must
constantly wet his straw in a pot of tlie
purest fresh water, his work is sure to
come forth in tuo cleanest possible con
dition.
When one, two or more hats nro fin
ished tlie maker repairs to some store
(either Gorman, French or English) to
sell his work. Ho will never go except
at night, when it is easier to deceive us
to color defects, &o. Sometimes u clerk
or agent of tlio Moyubomba stores will
go from house to house in tlio country,
and if ho can collect a dozen hats, it is
considered n good day’s work. A lint
which sells at tho rate $ll (gold) tlie
dozen, requires ono week to make. An
eighty dollar hut required from four to
six mouths. Reference was mndo to
tlto milkers going to town to sell only
at night. They go in numbers and re
sort to evory subterfuge to got a large
priuo, and to sell u poor article for a
superior ono. Tho skill of tlio bnyor is
remarkable. Hu knows tlio hnlf-brood
will n»k throe tlmoa ns much ns tlie hnt
is worth. Tho eye of lit© purchaser
rims rapidly over oaoli hat, and nt n
glnnco cau seo whether it is made by
man, woman or by child; whether it is
uneven, defective, starched up, bad in
color, or vice versa. Tlto maker, often
times not siilit-iiod with tho decision,
takes buck the Imt—passes it to another
Indian, who goes out uud comes in, as
if lto had just arrived, and offers the but

chaser is bo skillful that tlio best of

Washington by this sketch "I saw

Tlto following painful accident (for
after all it was an accident') occurred in
tho vicinity of one of our Medical Col
leges In Utis city, a few days ago. Tho
unfortunate victim is n well known mer
chant in this city. But for the mike of
his family wo concoal tho nnrno.
It is well known that all our medionl
colleges hnvo to be supplied with sub
jects. These dead bodies aro produoed
in various ways, nnd to got what tlio
Professors would call a first-class sub
ject, tlioy aro obliged sometimes to ro-
sort to very doubtful means; such, for
instance, as offering very large prices,
thus enticing nnd encouraging u party
of men in this city, who make this their
calling, not only to rob tho grave, but
often much worse.
In thia case, however, tlioy were un
expectedly supplied not only with a
good but a fresh ono. The person to
whom we refer is a German by birth,
but has boon in tins country over twen
ty five yearn. A few evenings ago, and
what might have boon unto him a fatal
flight, or rather morning, (for it was
about two o'clock in tho morning), while
in a state of itoxicution ho Btoppod iu a
tavern not far from one of our colleges.
The landlord knowing tlie niau nnd his
habits, tried to persunde him to remain
ull night, Imt it was no use.
lie took another drink and out ho
wont, and being in a h-tuto of oblivious-
ness, lay down close by the entrance of
one oi the firut-named institutions, ond
thcro lie slept in nn almost lifeless con
dition. Between the hour mentioned
and 4 o’clock, is the time that tho grave
robbers bring in their prey, nml it so
happened that on that morning they had
been very successful, ami brought in a
load from the Almshouse, in West Phil
adelphia. It is not to be expected thut
men following such nn occupation aro
men of sobriety and diseurment.
Tho gang, four in number, wore all
likewise drunk; and it so hnppcnod that,
after unloading their dead "subjects,”
they laid them alongside of our victim,
who was stored away with the corpBos.
Next morning n subject was wanted.
As soon ns tho door was opened nml
light admitted, tho unfortunate man be
gan to givo signs ol life. Two or tlirco
of tho students Wero called, but they
wero afraid to approach him.
At lengtli tho bravest ono made efforts
to arouse him, nnd they were success
ful. Gazing wildly nrotiud him for n
moment a terrible realization of his posi
tion came upon him like a flush, and ho
ultorud hourt-rouding screams.
8o nppnling wore they thut ono of
tlio students went into n tit, and n Ger
man was so alarmed that ho full duwtt
a flight of stairs and fractured one of
his arms, and was removed to tho Penn
Hospital, where lie ia now doing well.

his home in un insane condition, mani

TTnfliasant Rbfi.rotions —Not a
thousand miles from La Cross, Wiscon
sin lived a family who had in their em
ploy ndaughter of Erin. Tho lady hav
ing cause to doubt tier honesty, hud u
mirror hung in the sitting*rooin, so that
while idling uwny her timo sho could
wuteh tho movements of the unsuspeo-
tir.g Biddy in tlio kitchca. Ono day
while watching her inukc away with u
largo quantity of choice preserves,
site rushed in to tho astonished girl.
"How duro you out nil iny nice preserves
in this way f" Although sho still hold
tlio jar und spoon, sho ropliod, “Sure
Missus, you must bo mistaken, I’ve not
tasted tlio first blessed mouthful * I
was only fixing them for tny.” "Oh,
Biddy, how can you deny it when T
saw you from my room. Look,” und
sho pointed to tlio glass reflector in tho
center of her cosy boudoir,” in that’
glass I can soe nil you nro doing in this
room, nnd I saw you out my preserves.
If this oocurs again, I ahull discharge
you.” Biddy stood in amazement stur-
ing nt Uto glass a few minutes, and then
rubbed Iter hand over her forehead as
though trying to comprehend the extent
of the magic glass, cried out, „Och am)
sure I 'tis myself tiiat lius boon watch-
ing, (iu tho same gluss,) aud l’vo my
opinion thut If the master was to see how
you welcome that snme gentleman part-
net of his, in your own private parlor,^

It is not necessary to add that tho
glass was removed, and Biddy kept alt
