What's the Use Of SRosc?

The old provcrb that "snow Is the poor
mans manure" has. perhaps, grain OF
truth In Il. Some chemists tell US that
analysis reveals larger per centage OF
ammonia In snow than In rain. One says
that "water acquires nitrous salts In
freezing" However that may be, this ut
least Is true, that snow Is a powerful abb
sorbcnt, purifying the cir, and returning
those impurities to the soil.

ifcst In the ncighbOrhOOd Of large towns.
The harshncss and d:yncss produced In
the mouth by drinking snow-water, aud
the unpleasant effects on the skin by
washing In 1t, are ascribed to the impuri-
ties Il contains. The disease called goiire,
causing mon,trous swelling Of the neck,
which prevails In Alpine regions, salso
attributed by some to the use OF snow
water. The absorbent power OF snow has
been illustrated thus: "Iake lump OF
snow (crust answers we'll, Of three or
four inches In length, and hold IL In the
flame Of lamp; not drop Of water will

rs formed will be drawn up into the snow
by capillary attraction. II Is by virtue Of
this power that Il purifcs the atmosphere,
by absorbing and retaining Its noxlous
and noisomc gases aud odors.'
Furthermore; II prevents cxhalations
from the earth. and having absorbed them
returns their fcrtillzing properties to the
soil. Hence, marshes and stagnant pools

A few days since Mr.. Barnard Hanavan
proprietor of wine cellar on Seneca

rian wine from butt; there Is nothing
remarkable In this statement, but attach

artist may use fhc chooses,in illustrating
the disgraceful habits Of the lower anl.

by the teetollars, rs being worse than q

ton so derogatory to the human species

perancc argument In this section of the
world, for It can now bc proven that the
lower animals will not only drink wine
without any previous education Of their
tastes, but drink TO excess and then mis-
behave. As stated above Mr.. II. drew
tho sweet wine, but did not close the tap
completely, rs It seems, and soon after
ward he discovered an old topper Of q
rat sucking the juice Of the grape which
had fallen on the floor. On perceiving the
blped the quadruped scampercd Into his
hole. Being naturally Of an inquisltirc
and experimental turn Of mind, the land
lord examined the fawset and found that
the wine had been falling In drops upon
the floor. and that the rats had lmb'bcd oil
they could securc. Giving the wine lit.
tie more vent he then retired and through
the glass door watched the course Of
events.
Emboldencd by former draughts, prob
ably, one old fucker soon put In his ap.
pcarance and renewed his attack on the
liquor, even standing on his hind legs to
reach the wine, which was now flowing a
little faster. Others soon Joined their lead
or, and then followed real ratification,
the like OF which was never seen before In
the town. They squealed, scratched, bit,
fought, and struggled for the possession OF
the tap, until many Of them, one after the
other, became tight rs bricks, dead
drunk, and lay upon the floor In utter

made vigorous onslaught. His appear

sporting fraternity of tan-barn cock pit.
Some OF them were frightened Into de-
gree of sobcrncss that enabled them to
reach their holes. where they undoubted-
ly slept of the effects OF the liquor and
woke up next morning with terrible head
aches. Four or five Of tho brutcs, how
ever, were too far gone for locomotion,
and they became prisoners and were all
condemned to death instantly, save one,
which was placed In n cage for exhibition
and experiment. On recovering himself
from his stupor he seemed to be not ono

No sooner does one ingenious trick for

another Is devised; and forthwith the

THE SOCIETY OF LADIES.

Thackery says ''One Of the
great benefits a young man
may derive from women's soci-
ETY. is that he is bound to be
respectful to them. The habit
is Of great good to your moral
man, depend upon it. Our ed
ucation makes US the most en-
inently selfish men in the
world. We fight for ourselves;
we push for ourselves; we cut
the best slices out Of the joint
at the club dinners for our
selves; we yawn for ourselves;
and light our pipes, and say we
won't go out; we prefer our
selves and our ease; and the
greatest good that comes to a
man from women's society is
that he has to think of some
body besides himself; somebody
to whom be is bound to be con-
stantly attentive and respect
full. Certainly I don't want
my dear Bob to associate with
those Of the other sex whom he
doesn't and can't respect; that
is worse than billiards; worse
than tavern brandy and water;
and worse than smoking sell
fishness at home. But I VOW
I would rather see you turning
over the leaves of Miss Biddle
combe's music book all winter
than at billiards, or smoking,
or brandy and water, or all
these.
