SAL KRATUS.

SAL ERATUS is a preparation from
~ the we'll known article Pearl Ash,
purified and highly charged with Carbonic Acid Gas,
fixed air.
A cooling and agreeable saline draught is made by
dissolving a small tea-spoonful ofthese salts in water,
and adding thereto a table spoonful of Lemon Juice
or good Vinegar, to neutralize the same, producing a
strong efferyescence.
The saiutary effects of this medicine are well known
In allaying the preternatural heat and thirst attending
levers. While this article is beneficial to health, it is
grateful To the palate, and may he substituted for the
spa and Soda Waters, as a constant drink in suliry
weather, forming an agreeable beverage.
1t correcis acid in the stomach, and consequently
tends To prevent Dyspepsia aud oppression, especially
u taken au hour after eating, and we know of no me
dicrne whose use may be persisted in with less incon.
venience. Nor is it less useful for Culinary purposes,
a very small quantity of these salts effectua!ly answers
the purpose of yeast or eggs in making cakes, bread,
puddings, sc. light. II will also sweeten cream OF
dough when n little changed. 1t imparts to Cyder
the life and brillinncy of Champaign.
lt Is an invaluable article for ship masters on long
voyages at sea, as a preventive of the Scurvy. The
above is carefully prepared and neatly put up in walls
so that II may be safely transported to any part of the
world. Sold by GEO. PULLING s. co.

The ChJice of a Wifc.-The whole
secret of choosing well in matrimony
may be laugh: in three words-explore
the character. A violent love fit is
always the result Of ignorrnce; for there
is not Il daughter Of Eve that has merit
sufficient to Justify romantic love,
though thousands and thousands Ray
reasonably inspire that gentle esteem
which is infinitely better. A woman
worshipper and a oma hater both
derive their mistake from ignorance Of
the female world; Tor ifthe characters
Of women were thoroughly understood
lthey would be found too good to be ha-
ted, and yet not good enough t o be
idclized.-Chris. Her.
Itching fect.--Among the minor evils
to which the human frame is subject,
there are few more tormenting than
that Of violenl itching of the feet, du-
ring severe frosty weather, caused by
~Incipient chiIblains. The following
specific is SO simple and cheap, that no
person ought to be ignorant of it; it is
merely n part of muriatic acid, min
gled with seven parts Of water, with
which the feet must be rubbed for a
night or two, before going to bed, and
perfect relief will be experienced The
application must of course be made be-
fore the skin breaks, and it will be
found not only to allay The itching, bn,
prevent the farther progress Of the
chilblains. The feet, may be a little
tender for a short time, but this slight
Inconvenience will c disappear.

NEW PLAN OF ENGRAVING PEAR
TREES

A very Interesting paper on The cultivation
of an early and late variety of the pear Oh
the same wall trees, by Mr.. ID. Montgomery
gardener to the Duke OF MOurose. is printed III
the Transactions Of The Horticultural Society
of London, vol. vi, PIP. 367. He proposes 10
graft the half OF the late pear-trces with the
early sorts, and half the early trees with the
la G sorts for example, every alternate branch
of The Crnsanne with the Jargonelle, and oil
the Jargonelle with one of The best late pears
In this way there are two chances OF success
Should the Jargonelle, which is very early
in bios fail from unfav orabie weather, the
laie sort, which flowers al another time, may
succeed. Another advantage arises from the
crop coming at different times. The Jar
p.nelle ripens of before much effort is requlr-
ed from the tree TO support the late sorts, SO
that the tree is more capable of supplying
nourishment to half crop Of Jargonelles, than
if the crop were all of that sort ; aud as the
early pear are all gathered before the late sort
begins to swell to size. the tree is at once re-
Iieyed from half its crop, and is better able to
mature in greater perfection its laIe produce
Mr. Montgomery states that the trees produce
finer fruit in this way than il they were All oil
one sort Mr.. Sabine, the able secretary oil the
society, recommends the adoption OF TINS plaH
in England. on the ground that, AS lie" tamt
lies can consume the entire produce OF inll
sized, we'll managed pear tree OF any one Rind'
much waste would be avoided, as well al
more variety for the table be secured, II every
tree on a wall were worked with Two or more
kinds
Mr.. S. Cooper of New Jersey has ascertain
ed that early and late apples, by oe'ng g,aiie'

mora than if but one kind grew on a tree
and il appears by the above that the same ei
