not done" could not possibly get it done''-I dis
charged him, and left what he had done towards it,
on his hands. | engaged another mechanic to do the
same piece Of work at certain time-caled at the
time--t was not done--T discharged him. These
mechanics had violated their word, disappointed me,
(by which sustained loss, in money and time,) and
lost a customer.-So much for Dam of punctuality.

work at a certain time-called for it at the tme-it
was ready for This mechanic enjoyed the con-
seriousness Of having kept his word, performed his
contract, and done justice to his customer, by which
he secured not only my work in future but my good
will. which gained him many more customers.-So
much for punctualty
It is but ten years since the occurrence of these
things and during the interval have marked the pro-
gress of these three mechanics. A crisis towards

FLOUR IN BURNS.

From various reports of cases in the foreign
journals, it appears that the application of flour to
the denuded surface produced by burns and scads is
often attended with great relief and productive of the
happiest results and has sometimes effected a cure
when many of the more usual remedies had been en-
poyed to little purpose This remedy acts by shield
ing the part from the influence of the external air.
by checking the profuse discharge, and moreover,
is supposed by some, by the supply of that animal
gluten which is essential to the process ofncanatlon
In many in which applied the pain was at
once relieved, and the process of healing went on with
unusual rapidly. We have known this practice re-
