RULE FOR MEASURING CisTER zs.--Thc
.foll"wing short rule for measuring cisterns
we give for the bcne6 Of all who may
ever need any information in that line:
Multiply the diameter of the bottom in
inches by the diameter of the top, then
multiply that prodnct by 1854; divide the
last obtained number BY 23l, cut off four
figures at the light hand an the quo
tlent will be the answer 10 gallons.

Cigar ashes will be found an invaluable
remedy for the bite Of the musquito and
other insects. Wet the ashes and rub
them on the part, and the stinging sensa-
ton will be extracted almost instantly.
The reason of this is that ashes contain
alkali, which neutralizes the acid Of the
poison.
