IowANs WARNED OUT OF M1ssrssIp-
PI.-Mr. De Witt Stearns, formerly Of
Davenport, Iowa, communicates the
following from Oxford, Miss, to the
Davenport Gazette:
Inclo>ed please find notice to leave

"patriorch" went out trembling and
praying as though he thought dooms-

asked in All undertone which one could

THE VALUE OF Working
rs an ordinary hand in Philadelphia
shiryard, until within few years, was
man named John L. Knowlton. His
peculiarity was that, while others of his
class were at the ale house, or iDdulging
in jolification, he was necessarily en-
gagged in studying upon mechanical
combinations. One Of his comlmn ions
secured poodle dog, aud spent six
months in teaching the quadruped to
execute Jig upon his hind legs.
knowlton spent the same period in dis.
covering some method by which he
could saw out ship timber in a beveled
form. The first man taught his dog to
Characterization. in the same time.
discovered mechanical combination
that enabled him to do in two hours the
work that would occupy dozen men
by slow and laborious process, an entire
day. That saw is now in use in all the
shipyards in the country. 1t cuts a
beam to curved shape Us quickly as an
ordinary saw-mill rips up u straight
plank.
Knowlton continued his experiments.
He took no part in parades or target
shootings, and In q short time afterwards
he secured a patent for a machine that
turns any material whatever into per-
fectly spherical form. He sold a portion
OF his patent for Il sum equivalent to a
fortune. The machine was used for
cleaning off cannon balls for the gov
ernment. When the balls come from
the mould the surface is incrusted, and
the ordinary process of smoothing it was
slow and wearisome. This machine,
almost in All instant, and with mathe-
maticai accuracy, peels off to the surface
of the metal, at the same time smooth
ing out any deviations from the perfect
spheriodal form.
The same unassuming man has in.
vented u boring machine that was test
ed in the presence of u number of scien-
titic gentlemen. 1t bored ut the rate of
twenty two inches an hour, through u
block of granite, with pressure Of but
thee hundred pounds upon the drill.
A gentleman present offered him ten
thousand dollars on the spot for part
interest in the invention in Europe, and
the offer was ac"a.-'
lne moral of all this Is that people
who keep on studying are sure to achieve
Mr.. Knowlton does not
consider himself by any means brilliant,
but if once inspired with an idea, he
pursues 1t until he forces itinto tangible
shape. If everybody would follow
copy, the world would not now be filled
with idlers and the streets with grum-
blers and malcontents.-Scientif AMER

Hygienic Fallacies.

A fallacy in regard to diet is to suppose
that the natural appetite is not the best guide
as to the quantity and quality of our food.
1t is true that the appetite does sometimes
become perverted. 1t is true that it does
become sometimes a symptom of disease
But these cases are exceptional.
Hideous doctrines have been taught on
this subject. We have been solemnly told
to rise from the table as hungry as when we
sat down. We have been told to be always
ready for meal-in other words, to live in
a state of perpetual hunger. We have been
told to eat those things that We most hate,
and to avoid those we most love-that to
have longing for any article is the very
reason why we should be denied it.
These doctrines are monstrous. They are
unworthy of the nineteenth century. They
are libel on the Creator who gave us taste
and appetite, in order that we might know
what to eat and drink, and gave US also
Judgment to direct appetite and taste when
the system becomes diseased.
Notwithstanding all its liability to perver-
sion, the appetite is, on the whole, better
guide in selecting food, and in measuring its
quantity, than all the books on hygiene that
have ever been written.
The practice of weighing the food, which
was introduced to the world by the example
and teachings of Cornaro, the Italian, cannot
be too strongly reprobated. 1t is impossible
for scales to tell how much to eat The
quantity of food that we need depends on
the amount of labor that we do, on the ma
ture of the constitution, on our mental mood,
and on the quality and variety of the food
which is served.
To weigh or measure the food habitually
is not only silly, unnecessary, and useless
it is actually crime. 1t wastes valuable
hours that should be better employed. 1t
makes US miserable, and that fact alone is
argument enough against it. Il brings on
Indigestion and all other woes, and therefore
prevents US from getting the best advantage
of what we eat.
Still another common fallacy is, that
brain.workers need less nutriment than those
who live by their muscles.
This idea would never have been enter
tanned if people had depended on their own
observation and experience. But we have
been influenced by false teachings and err
roneous theories.
Any one who has attended associations of
clergymen, or alumni meetings, or has
boarded with students, has had an oppor-
tunity to see that brain-workers are large
eaters, as indeed they should be if they are
really hard workers. The changes of tissue
in the brain, that take place during study
and thought, are very important and very
rapid, and must be replaced by abundant
food.-Appleton's Journal,
The central Presbyterian. [volume] (Richmond, Va.) 1856-1908, 1869-08-18
Creosote in Typhoid Fever.

NJ Pecholier, of Montpelier, has recent
ly been conducting series of interesting
researches on the action of creosote in ty-
phoid fever. Conceiving the disease to be
one totias substantial, depending on certain
changes in the blood, caused by the action
of an organized ferment, which draws from
the blood the materials necessary for its nu-
triton, and exhales those thrown off by it's
decomposition, M. Pecholier has been led,
the Lancet reports, to employ creosote as an
anti-fermentive agent. Sixty patients at the
Hospital st. Eloi were chosen as the sub
jects of the experiment. Every day a
draught, containing three drops of creosote,
two of essence of lime, ninety grammes of
water, and thirty grammes of orange flower
water, was administered to the patients. At
the same time enemata were given containing
from three to five drops of creosote. M.
PechoGer states, as the result of his expert
ments, that creosote employed in weak doses,
either in draughts, injections, or in the form
of vapor, at the outset of typhoid fever, acts
powerfully in diminishing the intensity of
the disease, and shortening its DURATION
NJ. Pecholier adds that the employment of
the remedy as prophylactic agent in
schools, garrisons, hospitals, &C., during cpl
denies, would be of extreme efficacy.

Preaching to Children.

4 Is it not our privilege and duty, as preach
Rrs of Christ, to do more preaching to chill
Elren? think of nothing in my own min
|istry with so much regret, and so little re-
|spect, as do of my omissions here. We
get occupied with great and high subjects
that require handling too heavy and deep
for children, and become so fooled in our
estimate of what we do that we call it coming
down when we undertake the preaching to
children; whereas it is coming up rather, out
of the subterranean bells, darknesses, intri-
cacies, dungeon-ife profundities of old
grown,up sin, to speak to the bright day
light creatures of trust and sweet affinities
and easy conviction. And to speak to these
fifty, so as not to thrust in Jesus on them
as by force, but have him win his own dear
way, by his childhood, waiting for his cross,
tenderly, purely, and without art-ohI how
fine, how very precious the soul equipment
it will require of US think l see it now
clearly: we do not preach well to adults, be-
cause we do not preach, or learn how to
preach, to children. Jesus did not forget to
be a child; but if he had been child with
us, We should probably have missed the sight
of him. Gods world contains grown-up
people and children together: our world con-
tains grOwn-up people only. And preaching
only to these, who are scarcely more than
half the total number, it is much as if we
were to set our ministry to preaching only
to bachelors. We dry up in this manner,
and our thought wizens in a certain pomp of
pretense that is hollow and not gospel. The
very certain fact is that our schools of the
Ology will never make qualified preachers
till they discover the existence of children.
Let every young man who is going to preach,
put himself to it, first of all, in that after
noon service we just now spoke of, there to
begin a ministry, wise enough and rich
enough in gospel meaning to take the heart
of children.-Dr. BUSHNELL
The central Presbyterian. [volume] (Richmond, Va.) 1856-1908, 1869-08-18
What can be the Reason?

1t would appear from the following state
ment, that the city of Rome is probably the
most dissO1ute city in Christendom! How
shall we account for this fact?
We clip from the Cincinnati Gazette, of
July %, as follows:
according to the latest statistics pub
lished of 1915 births at Rome in the year,
$3.50 were Legitimate. The same authority
gives the percentage Of illegitimate births in
various cities-LOndon, 4 per cent; Paris,
81; Brussels, 50; Munich, 81; Vienna, 118;
Rome, 243. AS is well known, the capitals
of Catholic countries are far in advance of
those of Protestant in these Irregularities. F"
Now philosophy and reason both teach us
that all effects are the necessary and natural
result of certain causes. The ultimate cause
of these appalling facts, all will admit, is the
depravity of human nature But why should
this depravity be so much more potent and
universal in Rome than at London, or in
New York? If human nature has there
sunk to lower level than in any other part
of Christendom, to what baleful influence
are we to attribute it? 1t cannot be for the
want of religious teachers, so-called; for
everybody knows that Rome is the most
priest-ridden city in the world. Her church
es are numbered by hundreds, and her
priests by thousands.
Rome literally s0arms with ecclesastics
and nuns of all grades. 1t is the very
citadel and focal point of the power and in
fluence of the socalled "holy Catholc-the
only true and infallible Church on the earth. 4"
Everything is here subjected to the authori-
ty and will of the Pope. The Church per-
vadeS and dominates everything. No Pro-
testant can preach, or publish in any form,
syllable within the walls of this Catholic
city to which the Pope objects. All classes
have been compelled for many centuries to
sit at the feet of ellis Holiness" and of
such teachers as he appoints, and receive
their dictum as the revelation of Gods will
Why then, the question returns, have they
not made the people more moral? Why
does Rome even surpass the worst of heath
en- cities in the matter referred to in these
statistics? 1t is doubtful if all Asia, or even
Africa, can produce city with so Infamous
record as the one furnished by Romel 1t
would seem to be very Sodom of impurity.
