It is no doubt the part of the Christian

are so much superior to those of the com

The uses to which paper can be put
are limitless. A German firm has begun
the manufacture stoves out of paper,
and they are said to give perfect satisfac
tion. The day is coming when paper
will be used for watch cases and table
ware in place of gold and silver; at least
we hope so. It don’t though
the price could always be kept up.
A religious body having resolved to
build a new church, the pastor went

In the Sunday school a few days after

then inquired what the latter did with

Perils by Bees.
It is a disadvantage of civilization that
it shows ns the dangers to which life is
exposed. Every year presents us with a
new peril, and the latest is almost the
least expected. French men of science
are now preaching a crusade against the
industerous race of bees. Not only are
they destructive to property, but they are
actually dangerous to human life. The
Prefect of the Paris police has been ap
pled to. M. Delpech lias drawn up a
formidable brief, and is precise in his
statements and clamorous in his demands.
It seems that bee-keeping is lucrative in
the neighborhood of Paris, and so also is
the distilling of spirits and the refining of
sugar. Moreover, where there are sugar
works the bees are active and abundant.
At Say, for instance, the loss attributed
to them is estimated at £I,OOO a year.
M. Delpech gives facts and figures. At
another refinery the number of bees
killed daily amounts to twenty-two gal
lons full.' He himself saw a large glass
of syrup drank up in two hours. As to
loss of life he is equally circumstantial.
He gives'a full list of people who died of
bee stings in the course of the year.
Most of the cases occurred in America,
out many are furnished by France, and
some by Germany. The death is very
painful, and in some instances extremely
sudden. At Chemnitz, in Hungary, a
peasant stung while cutting a branch of
a tree died on the spot At Chester, in
Pennsylvania, a farmer, examining some
hives, was stung, fell at once into a state
of syncope, and died within a quarter of
an hour. In another case twenty-five
minutes elapsed between the wound and
its fatal consequence. M. Delpech ac
cordingly appeals to the Prefect for the
protection of the police, and -wliat he
asks is that the keeping of bees may be
placed in the category of dangerous and
unhealthy occupations. The fourth
Georgic of Virgil may bo read with new
interest.
Gymnastic Training.
The Spartans were rigid in exacting a
gymnastic training for youths. Then
the girts were expected to lie good gym
nasts, and no young woman could be
married till ahe had publicly exhibited
her proficiency in various exercises.
In the middle of one of Roland Hill s
sermons he was disturbed by a commo
tion in the gallery. He exclaimed
“What’s the matter there? the devil
seems to have got among you." A
countryman replied, “It am t the devil a
a doing it, it’s a lady wots fainted. Hill
rejoined. “I beg the lady’s pardon and
tiiu devil’s, too."
Shall We Bolt Our Food!
If there is' any point in physiology
upon which authorities have generally
agreed, it is that fast eating is unfavora
ble to digestion. The food must lie
thoroughly chewed, they tell us, in order
to mix it thoroughly’ with the saliva, the
first of the fluids essential to its assimila
tion, and to prepare it for being acted
upon in the stomach by the gastric juice,
the second of those fluids. The more
l>erfectly it is subdivided, the greater sur
face it exposes to the action of the gastric
juice, and the more rapidly it will, there
fore, be dissolved and reduced to proper
condition for the next stage of the diges
tive process. Every school boy has
learned this in his toxt-book of physiol
ogy, and it seems so reasonable on the
face of it that we need not wonder at its
having been universally accepted as a
hygienic axiom.
But, as we have before said in the
Journal, there is no scientific proposition
so axiomatic or self-evident that it may
not be disputed now-a-days. Dirt has
l>eeii defended by learned Dutchmen, and
even foul air lies its champions. The
arguments in favor of drinking ditch
water and breathing a vitiated atmos
phere are, however, less plausible than
those bv which fast eating has recently
lieen advocated ns being more consistent
with the true philosophy of digestion
than more deliberate feeding. The
thorough mastication which the latter in
volves is declared to lie not only unneces
sary, but positively injurious, interfering
with the work done in the stomach in
stead of promoting it. Dr. William
Browning, who made some experiments
with dogs, in order to satisfy himself on
this point, says:
“If the meat, before being fed to the
dog, was reduced to hash or cut into fine
pieces, the digestion was at best but
imperfect, a considerable portion of th*
undigested or imperfectly digested meat
being found in the excreta. If, under tin
same conditions, meat was fed to the dog
in large pieces, it was bolted at a gulp,
with the result that little, if any, passed
through undigested; compared with the
result from thechopped meat, it could be
called a perfect digestion for the coal's*
form as compared with a decidedly im
perfect digestion for the fine form. S*
far as simple experiment goes, this must
be pretty conclusive for the dog.”
He reasons, and logically enough, that
the same ought to be true of human
digestion:
“ The rotary movements of the con
tents of the stomach is to facilitate the
gastric juice, to bring the various par
ticles and lumps of the mass into contact
with it as it exudes from the stomach’s
walls. If the material has come fron
the mouth finely ground up, a considera
ble portion goes over into the duodenun
before it has been properly acted upon
but if it has come down in coarse lumps
these begin shortly to dissolve, passing
into a more or less fluid condition, and
this can be taken care of with about th*
same rapidity by the digestive apparatu
following. By this arrangement no por
tion of the food would be allowed to pass
from the stomach unprepared for the next
step in the digestive process. All pot
tions, then, even the finest fibers of meat
diet, must be acted on by the gastri*
juice before passing on, and this pro
grosses best by slowly wearing off th<
outside of the muscles.”
Prof. Ludwig has made some export
ments upon himself t > test this theory
eating coarsely divided meat at one tin,
and line at another, and states that I
lias not been able hi detect any ill effec
whatever from swallowing mouthfuls a.
large as he could conveniently manage.
Indian Pastime.
The Piutes of this section not having
any cares of business to worry them gen
erally manage to kill time by loafing
around the street corners. The dry
slum pond of the Standard Mill provides
accommodations for divertisements for
squaws other than that of taking care
of papooses. Every day Indians of both
sexes congregate at the shun pond and
witness a game of the squaws—a game
similar to that of “shinny.” Eight
squaws participate in the game—four on
a side. The buck champions arrange
themselves on the ground near the home
bases, and after the squaws divest them
selves of surplus clothing—shoes and
stockings—the game commences. Each
squaw is provided with a bough of a
tree about five feet long, and one of the
squaws throwing a piece of rawhide in
the air the players endeavor with their
sticks to send it to their own base. An
inning, ns it may be called, sometimes
lasts fifteen minutes. When either side
wins the bucks, championing the vic
tors, jump and shout till the earth
quakes. The sport gives the participants
an opportunity to show their fleetness of
foot; the piece of rawhide is tbown
twenty yards, and before it touches the
ground sixteen pairs of feet are around it.
The side that wins three innings first is
considered the winning side, ami what
money the game is played for is divided
equally between the players. Bodie

A Lover of Sliakspeare.
One of the most noted characters of
the border twenty years ago was old Jim
Bridger, of Fort Bridger, in Utah. On
one occasion he came to New York. He
did not like the narrow down-town streets
with high buildings on each side, and
complained that he had once lost his way
in “Dey Street Canon,” and been rescued
with difficulty by the police. He liked
the theatres, and expressed the utmost
delight at a performance of the “Mid
summer Night’s Dream. ” He had no
clear idea who Shakspeare was, but con
ceived and developed the most extrava
gant admiration for him.
Returning to the fort, he sold stock
and supplies to emigrants and other
travelers as in time past. One day a man
wished to buy some oxen, and Jim said
he could have any except one yoke,
which he had made up his mind to keep
at all hazards. In the morning a mes
senger came to say that the man wanted
this yoke, and no other.
“He can’t have ’em, said Jim.
“There’s no use talkin’.”
“Well, he wants them, and is just a
waitiu’ for them,” said the messenger.
“He’s a-settin’ there, readin’ a book call
ed Shakspeare.”
“Eh?” yelled Jim, jumping to hia feet
“Did you say—Shakspeare. Here, —you,
give me my boote.”
He ran to the corral.
“Stranger,” said he, “jest give me that
book, and take them oxen.”
“Oh no,” said the man. “ I only
brought the book to read on the way. I
will give it to you.”
“Stranger,” said Jim, resolutely, “jest
you take them oxen, and give me that
book.” And so the man did.
Jim hired a reader at fifty dollars per
month, and listened to Shakspeare eveiy
evening. All went well, until one night,
its the reader came to the prop*j«ed
murder of the princes in the Tower, Jim
sprang from his seat, with blazing eyes,
and yelled, in thunder-tones, “ Hold on
there! Jest wait till I git my rifle, anti
I’ll shoot the scoundrel 1"
As one of his old “ pards ” justly re
marked, a sincerer conqiliment was uevpr
paid to Shakiq>eare.— Editor’t Drawer
in Harper's Magazine.

I n 1873 there were two negroes confined In
Jail budly afflicted with Syphilis. In my offi
cial capacity I employed C. T. Swift to cure
them, under a contract, “no cure no pay." He
ad ministered his “ Syphilitic Specific,” and
in a few weeks I felt bound to pay him out ot
theoi unty treasury, as he had effecteda com
plete nd radical cure. A. 8. Giles,

gentleman who had been confined to his bed
six weeks with Syphilitic Rheumatism has
been cured entirely, and speaks in the high
