Mrs. N. A. Little, a well-known
lady resident Of Grinnell, Iowa, had
a daughter much troubled by EpiIep-
tic fits, who was cured by the use Of
q remedy which she gives as follows
in q communication to the Powe-
sheik Herald:
"The prescription was from Rev.
D. +. Ives, Of Tiskilwa, Bureau
County, Illinois, where she has been
for several weeks to be treated with
galvanic. baths in connection with
the following medicine:
One ounce OF Bromide Potassium. .
One ounce compound spirits Laven-

Eight ounces water.
One tablespoonful essence pepper

Shake it well each time before
using.
Dose-one teaspoonful three times

The dose can be increased to three

Fruit Trees and Their Man
0gemenf.

Below we give the twelve rules
laid down by the Woonsocket Patriot
for the management of fruit trees:
/. When fruit trees occupy the
ground, nothing else should-except
short grass.
2. Fruitfulness and growth of the
tree cannot be expected the same
year.
8. There is no plum that the cur
culio will not take, though any kind
may sometimes escape for one year
in one place.
a. Peach borcrs will not do much
damage when stiff clay is heaped up
around the tree foot high.
5. Pear blight still puzzles the
greatest men. The best remedy
known is to plant two for every one
that dies.
@. fyoudon't know how to prunc,
don't hire man that knows less than
you do.
7. Don't cut Off d big lower limb
unless you are renter, and don't
care what becomes Of the tree when
your time is out.
8. A tree with limbs coming out
near the ground is worth two trees
trimmed up five feet, and worth four
trees trimmed up ten feet, and so on
till they are not worth anything.
8. Trim down, not up.
10. If you had your arm cut off,
you would fell ii to your heart-a
tree will not only feel, bat rot to the
heart.

some Clock.

A clock which has just been COM
plcted for the cathedral Of Beauyais
contains 10000 wheels, and Indicates,
among many other things, the days
of the week, the month, the year, the
signs Of the zodiac, the equation Of
time, the course of the planets, the
phases of the moon, and the time at
every capital In the world, the move
able feasts for one hundred years, the
saints days, DC. Perhaps the most
curious part OF the mechanism is that
which gives. the additional day in
ieap-ycar, and which, consequently,
Is called into action only once in four
years. The clock is wound up every
eight days. The main dial is twelve
feet in diameter, and tho total cost
exceeds S4O, 900. E.r.

How ChewiDg-Gum Is Made.

AAO" MCvAu6 - - SA"uSe
A great many American girls and
boys, as well as children of larger
growth, have acquired the truly dis
gushing habit ofchewing gum. 1t
may be pleasant for them to know
how it is made. An exchange tells
them:
"The greatest gum manufacturing
establishment Is at Poddnk, Massa-
chusetts, and the fame Of the gum
land the gum itself is in the mouths
of many. One Of the employees Of
that establishment. who he's hccccc::ssss
thoroughly initiated into the mys-
teries of the manufacture Of the gum,
was recently discharged from the
establishment, and has divulged the
mode Of making the gum which the
young Americans masticate with
such velocity and apparent satisfac-
ton. The gum Is made OF certain
parts Of gum-arabic, gum tragacanth,
a small quantity Of resin, and fat.
The fat used is not lard, THAT being
too expensive,) but 1t Is substance
expressed from the bodies Of hogs,
cats, dogs, and other animals found
dead in the streets OF cities" Nice,
isn't 1t?

He expressed his dissatisfaction In

Teutonic oaths. "If ,you wish 1t, !"
said the actuaryof theinsurance COM
pany, tive will build you a house
larger and better than the one burned
down, ms we are positive that can be
done for even less than six hundred
pounds.p To this proposition the
Dutchman objected; and at last was
compelled to take the six hundred
pounds.
Some weeks after he had received
the money he was called upon blythe
same agent, who wanted him to take
out policy Of life insurance on him.

your wife's life for s2,OO0," the
agent said, "and she should die, you
