Smoking and Heart Disease. in a report by Dr. # Fn»ntzel, of Berlin, on immoderate smoking and its affects upon the heart, t is stated that the latter show themselves chiefly by rapid, irregular palpitation of the heart, short breath, languor, sleeplessness, etc. Dr. Frautzcl says that if the cutises of these complaints are inquired into, it is generally found that tho patients arc great smokers. They may not smoke ci gars rich in nicotine, but full fluvored cigars imported from the riavanas Smoking, as a rule, agrees with per- Bont for many years, perhaps for twenty years and longer, although by degrees cigars of a finer flavor aro chosen. But all at once, with out any assignable, cause, troubles are experienced with the heart, which rapidly increase, and compel the sufferer to call in the help of the medical man. it is strange that persons consuming cigars of ordinary q-iality, even if they smoke them very largely, rarely arc a'tucked In that way. Tho excessive use of cigarettes has not been known to give rise to similar troubles, although it is the cause of compluints of a different nature. Tho ago at which disturbances of the heart become pronounced varies very much. It is out rare that patients aro under thirty yours of age; they uro mostly between forty and sixty yoats old. Persons who are ublc to smoke full flavored Havanas continue to do so up to their death. If wo look round among tho better classes of society, who, it is well known, aro tho prin cipal consumers of such cigars, it is astonishing to find how many per sons with advancing years discontin ue smoking. As a rule, affection of the heart has caused them to abjure the weed. In such cases the pa tient has found the best cure with out consulting tho medical man. If lie makes up bis mind to discontinue smoking at once, the complaint frequently ocaSes at once; in other in- staucos it takes sumo time before the action of the heart is restored to its normal health. In such oases, besldos discontinuing smoking, relief must he sought also by regulating • lie diet, taking onlyeusily digestib e food, light hear and wine in moderate quantities, abjuring coffee, as wo(i as by short walks, residence among mono tains of moderate elevation, and suitable interior treatment. By taking this course, all symptons dis. appear in the course of a year, and do not. reappear if tho patient does not recommend smoking. In a lluid category of cases, the more acute disturbances leave the patient; he feels well and heariy, but an irregu lurily of the heart, more dr les's pro nounced, is left behind. It has not yet'been determined what it is that makes smoking injurious; but ibis tuucli appears certain, that it does not depend upon the anionut of nicotine which cigars may contain.— Scientific American. The Girl of To-Day. If there is anything wo know less about Lhuti we think we do it is the girl; and of this the girl is glad, for there is nothing she hales to be known about her so bad as the truth. We have been acquainted with her for a long time and watched her pranks from afar, seen her cut the "pigeon wing” and knock the "ouck-step” in the back yard, when she thought she had no spectator; but still we don’t know her. From the limp bIio is big enough t« swing on tho gate and lit- a ribbon in a double bnwknot she begins to locate a sweetheart, anil sho keeps this up until he is located in the back yard exercising his talents dis secting stove wood.

Shu will wear out two old droasts running around to find out to make a now one in the latest style. She. will break off hei brother’s nnil'e making a crack to peep at the strangers when they come visiting. t , She will walk three blocks out of tho way to get a peep at her boatt, and thou puss by without looking at him. She will talk with you two hours without being able to repeat u word you have said, but will know how long you have worn your duds and how many buttons have lost their grip. She will attend church, listen with absorbed interest to eloquont and pathetic sermons, then return home and expatiate upon the horrible fit of Miss Snow’s new basque. She will go the table, mince over ever delicacies with the most fastid ious taste, then slip buck in the kitchen and eat a raw potato. Sho will wear out hor best shoes dancing all day, and then attend a ball at night and complain of being j out of practice. Sho will spend all night writing a carefully worded .loiter, in the most precise hand, to her Simon Suggs, then scratch off a pago to her sister that old Harry couldn’t read. Shu will be tho most devout croa- ttiro on earth, aud hate the earth thatSallie Grimes walks on. She will be industrious and economical for a month, then spend her savings for « ‘led rib bon.
