Remedies for the stlag Of : Bee.

T. 80 ~ 3
If only few of the host of cures, SO
zealously advocated, could be made effect
ual, there would be little reason to dread
being stung.
The first thing to be done after being
stung, is to pull the sting out of the wound
as quickly as possible. When torn from
the bee, the poison bag and all the muscles.
which control the sting accompany it; and
it penetrates deeper and deeper into the,
flesh, injecting continually more and more
poison into the wound. 1t extracted at
once, twill very rarely produce any se-
rious consequences After the sting is re-
moved, the utmost care should be taken
not to irritate the wound by the slightest
rubbing. However intense the smarting,
and the disposition to apply friction to the
wound, it should never be done, for the
moment that the blood is put into violent
circulation, the poison is quickly diffused
over large part of the system, and severe
pain and swelling may ensue. On the
same principle, by severe friction, the bite
of mosquito, even after the lapse of sew
eral days, may be made to swell again.
As most of the popular remedies are rub
bed in, they are worse than nothing
If the mouth is applied to the wound,
unpleasant consequences may follow; for,
while the poison of snakes, affecting only
the circulating system, may be swallowed
with immunity, the poison Of the bee acts
with great power on the organs of diges-.
ton. Distressing headaches are often pro-.
duced by it, as any one who has been
stung or has tasted the poison, very well
knows.
I The milky juice of the white poppy Is
highly recommended. An old German
writer states that it will instantaneously
allay the pain and prevent swelling.

Soft Shell Doughnuts.

A FEW days ago, George s., salesman
of renown," having Western customer
in tow, dropped into the Cafe Haven for
lunch. Boston cream cakes and coffee
were ordered and discussed, to the delight
Of the Western man, to whom the cakes
were novelty, and the quality of the
beverage a surprise. The next day he
was eager to repeat his pleasant expert
ment, and wanted George to lunch at the
same place. Arrived at the saloon and

Selecting Seed Corn.

EVERY farmer is ready to admit that
both the quality and quantity Of his corn
crop arein d great measure dependent on
the seed he plants. Still there are num-
bers who plant Indifferent seed year after
year, and, as a consequence, harvest in
different crops. Now, since even the best
seed for an acre of land can be obtained
for few cents, it seems pity that there
is not more pains taken to procure it.
The first thing that should be looked
after in selecting seed corn, is to get ears
that are of the sans kind, both as regards
the form and color of the kernel, as well
as those whose period of maturity are the
same. 1t does not make so much differ
ence what the color is; as it does that it
is all the same color, for mixed corn never
sells as No. in the market, notwithstand-
ing the fact that the sorted ears of each
several variety would have been SO rated
If they had been kept distinct. The same
is true of the form of the kernel.
Another thing that adds much to the
market value of corn, is that the kernels
are of nearly uniform size. If a portion
Of the kernels of shelled corn, taken from
the middle of the ear, are of very large
size, and another portion taken from the
ends areof very small size, their Gispro-
portion shows greater by contrast, and the
lot is marked at lower grade than it
would be, if there was greater uniformity
in this respect. Care then should be taken
to select those ears for seed, other things
being equal, that tarer least, having their
butts scarcely larger than the tips. Such
corn is much easier shelled by q machine
than that which grows on ears where the
taper is great. There will also be less re-
q n ON hn e<h 4 n fra,
shelter.
The uniform maturity of the ears of
corn designed for the next seasons crop is
also matter OF prime Importance for If
suitable care is not taken in this respect,
there win be difference, not only in the
period of its coming up, but in the time
the different hills will require to be cult
waited and harvested. The field too, during
all the season, will fail to present that uni
form appearance which is the delight Of
every thrifty farmers eye. In growing
corn IN q tolerably high northern latitude,
it is often necessary to cut up the corn on
the stalks and to shock it, in order to save
it from the threatening frost; and unless
there is good deal of uniformity in its
degree Of advancement, the labor of sort
Ing 1t at husking time viii be very great.
Seed corn then should be selected with
special reference to the uniform ripeness
At q certain time. To which end the
farmer should 60 through the field and
select those ears that are Thoroughly rise
on the stalks st a certain time, instead of
taking his seed ears from the whole field
at husking time, regardless of the period
1t which they matured their: growth.

Agriculture in China.

- " II
THE Cinnamon, who walkrover bridges
built two thousand years ago, who cult
waited the cotton plant centuries before
this country was heard of, who fed silk
worms before King Solomon built his
throne, have fifty thousand square miles
around Shanghai, which are called the
Garden Of China, and which have been
titled by countless generations. This area
is as large as New Y FORK and Pennsylvania
combined, and is all meadow land raised
but few feet above the river--lakes,
rivers, canals--a complete network of wa
ter communication; the land under the
highest filth; three crops a year har-
vested population SO dense that wher-
ever you lsok, you see men and
women in blue pants and blouse, SO nu
merous that you fancy some fair or muster
is coming and all hands have turned out

GRANT AND CoLFAX.
Their Responses.
GENERAL GRANT.

sGALENA, ILL.,, Nov. ..
LAST night the people Of this city cele-
brated the election of their distinguished
townsman, Gen. Grant, with q grand
torchlight procession, Examinations and
general jubilation. The Tanners were out
in full force, and these, with citizens to
the number of several thousands, marched
to the Generals residence. In response to
repeated and energetic calls, Gen. Grant
appeared on the piazza and spoke as 1oi-
lows:
Friends and fellow-citizens of Galena .
/ thank you for this additional mark OF
your kindness. Sufficient, suppose, has
now been heard of the result OF the late
election to show upon whom it has fallen
to administer the affairs of the nation Tor
the next four years. suppose it is no
4 egotism in me to say that the choice has
fallen on me. The responsibilities OF the
position I feel, but accept them without
1 fear, if can have the same support which
has been given to me thus far. l thank
you and all others who have fought to-
| gether in this contest-a contest in which
you are all interested personally, as much
as ard, perhaps, more than am. now
Take occasion to bid you goodbye. as |
leave here to morrow for Washington, and
shall probably see but few of you again
for some years TO come, although it would
give me great pleasure to make an annual
pilgrimage to a place where have enjoyed
myself so much as I have here during the
past few months"
A voiley of deafening cheers was the
response to this speech OF the General
after which the crowd proceeded to the
residence of Hon. E. B. Washburne, who
was called out, and addressed his fellow
townsmen in very happy and eloquent
terms. Hon. W. g. Allison, Represents
tive from the Third District of Iowa, also
made an effective and stirring speech
after which the crowd dispersed, with
rousing cheers for Gen. Grant, Wash
burne and the splendid victory they had
just gained.

BLUsHIEG.

tThe skin of the forehead of young
girls Is apt to blush with an excessive
facility. This tendency, If not check
ed, will cause a permanent redness
very unfayorable to beauty. In many
cases, no doubt, this is owing to some
bodily disorder which requires medi-
cal treatment. In many instances,
however, this rising of the blood to the
face comes from the indulgence in an
exaggerated Hensibnity. Young girls
should therefore be on their guard, and
check it while 1t is in their power.
They should also avoid all prolonged
study or reading, especially in sit
ting posture with the head bent down.
They should take regular exercise,
walk much, not expose themselves to
rude winds, wear their clothes loose,
and not allow their sensibility TO be
agitated by every passing impression.
IL Is a common mistake for those girls
thus AFFLICTED to live too meagerly, with
the idea that a full diet increases the
tendency of the blood to rise to the
face. Generous food, on the contrary,
Is what they require.

mouth may have, as with the present
style of wearing full mustache and
beard little of It can be seen. In the
smooth face of a woman, however, the
form of the mouth has great deal 10
do with its beauty or ugliness. Accor;
ding to our Caucasian notion, it should
be small, regular. dry, sweet and In
laughing or speaking not show more
than half of the length OF the four or
five upper teeth. The standard in taste
in regard TO the lips varies in different
nations. The lips should be neither
very thin nor full, and form when the
mouth is closed an obtuse angle at
each corner and in the center. Their
color ought to be of lively red. me
