ont any dc6niIe aim. 1t is useless to
tell tho victim 70 do this or that, or call
for water Intact il is generally best 10
say NOT a word, but scizc a blanket from

II none Is ~ hand, tnke auy woolen ma
teriRl--hold The corpcrs ms Ear apart as
you can, ssvctch them out higher than
your head, aud, running boldly to the
person, makc motion of clasping in the
arms, most about tho shoulders. This
instantly smothers the fire and saves the
face. The next instant throw the unfor-
tunate person on the floor. This is an
additional safety to the face and breath,
and any remnant of fame can be put out
more leisurely. The next instant, im-
merse the burnt part in cold water, and
all pain will cease with the rapislity Of
lightning. Next, get some flour, remove
from the water, aud cover the burnt parts
withIan inch thickness Of -four, if possi-
bic; put the patient to bed, and do all
that is possible 10 soothe until the physi-
clan arrives. Let The. -four remain until
it falls off itself, when beautiful new
skin will be found. Unless the burns are
deep, no other applications is needed. The
dry flour for burns is the most admirable
remedy ever proposed, and the informa-
tion ought to be impaired to all. The
principle Of its action is that, like the wa
ter, it causes instant and perfect rclieffrom
pain, BY totally excluding the air from
The injured parts. Spanish whiting and
cold water, Of a mushy consistency, are
preferred by some. Dredge on the flour
until no more will stick, and cover with
cotton batting.--,Scientsfc american.

How TO HAVE FLowERs DoUBpE.---
A young lady In Central New York wrote
TO the Farmers Club, says the Country
: Gentleman, saying that someiof her bal
sam and aster plants produced flowers
double, while on the other plants the
flowers were all single, and asking if the
Club could tell her how 10 have all her
flowers double. ''.
Mr., Pardee said: The remedy for
this difficulty is simple and eifectual.
When plant produces a flower with a
single row of petals, il must be inexora-
bly,, torn up by thoroots and trampled in
the path. Balsams, pinks, asters, and all
that class Of plants, are apt to have seeds
which will produce plants that will bear
single flowers; and il the pollen from
these be allowed to fructfy the flowers Of
other plapts, the whole bed will be hy-
bridized, and the following year crop Of
inferior flowers will be produced. On the
other hand, II the plants that bear single
flowers areifirmly sacrificed, the seed will
improve and frequently very fno and cu-
rious flowers will be obtained"
