PAINFUL A cciDEnf.--The Newport
Ners of last week says, Wednesday af-
serinou IN accident oesurred at the barn
of Mr. John Shearer. in Centre town
ship, about "a miles from Bloomfield, BY
which his son Wilson, aged l9 years,
wasvesy ssr;eu.ly hurt He was in the act
of oiling the cylinder Of the shreshins
machine when his sleeve caught in the
tuubling shaft and drew his arm around
the shaft, breaking it in two places and
pulling it out of the shoulder socket
Dr.. Strickler was immediately sent for,
and messenger hurried to Newport and
telegraphed for DR.. Rutherford. who ar
rived on one of the evening trains and
proceeded to the scene of the accident.
At this writing Thursday morning) we
have not been able to learn his condition.
We learn the above account of gentle
man from Bloomfield
Since the above was in type we learn
that his Qeft) arm was broken only once,
between the elbow aud shoulder, and
was not dislocated at the shoulder. and
be received very painful flesh wound
under the arm. DR.. Rutherford wished
toamputatc the arm, but the young man
would not hear to it, and from all &C
counts amputation was unnecessary, as
he is improving rapidly.

Filters and Filtering.

Water, wine spirit, Jelly, syrup, tine
lures and great variety of other fluids,
hot and cold, often contain substances
which should be separated in order to
render the fluid clear and bright. As re-
CARDS water, tiltering it has become
pretty general but in domestic life
there are fluids, such as wine, liquid iel-
ly, syrup, etc, which are required to be
made clear" before they are put on the
table. There are three kinds of filters
sponge, for watery liquids; cotton, for
sprituous fluids, and WOOL for gelatinous
fluids and oils. In every wellappointed
kitchen, there are tin or porcelain fun
nels For iiltering watery fluids it is
only necessary to insert in the choke of
the funnel, Vshaped piece of fine
sponge. All such liquids, on being put
into the funnel, will pass through the
sponge, and become quite clear. When
this effect ceases the sponge must be re-
moved, and well cleansed. Ninous flu
ids are best cleared by hltering through
a cone of white blotting paper, shaped
by folding II square piece of the paper
from corner to corner, then folding the
triangle into half its size, and opening
the folds it will fit any funnel, which
will act as support to the paper. Wines
etc, poured into this, will run through
it perfectly bright. In some cases, where
the wine is only II little thick from lees,
cork, or other mechanically suspended
substance, it can be made quite clear by
filtering through wad of white cotton
put in the choke of the funnel and
when this answers, it is much quicker
than the paper filter. For jelly and oil
wool alone is the proper medium for fill
tering. The felted wool jelly bag is
pretty well known as the best means for
clearing calves foot jelly, and it also an
swcrs for olive and other oil These
bags are, however, too expensive to be
generally used hence they are rarely
seen in kitchens. a good substitute for
the wool bag is colander, on the inside
of which new flannel lining should be
fitted, made of double stuff. 4 wad of
white knitting wool, put in the choke of
the funnel, win do to filter any small
portion OF such fluids Many good
glass of port wine has been wasted for
the want of penny paper filter Sci

The MARTYRS of NerIect.

1t is not too much to say that tens of thou
sands are now suffering from biliousness, in
digestion, constipation, periodical fcvcrs,
general debility, and nervous affections. who
might be restored to perfect health within Il
month or less by the use of Hostetter'5 5
Stomach Bitters The mult!tudcs who have
been cured of these and other ailments by
the use of this well known specific are al
ways ready tO testify TO its virtue as pre-
vcntive and u remedy. They are spread over
the whole country; they are eager to praise
and recommend it; and yet, notwithstand-
ing its vast popularity, there are many in
yalids, and many who are continually eX-
posed TO the epidomical diseases, against
which it is sure protection, who, either
through indifference or incredulity neglect to
seize the opportunity to cure aud means OF
prevention, which they have only to reach
out their hands to obtain. This is strange
il II one of the anomalies of human nature
which it is impossible to account for or cX-
plain. 1t is, however, quite certain that
every day tho number of these Martyrs of
Neglect is diminishing. This is proved by
the statistics Of the sales of the great
remedy. During the present fall the demand
for il has increased beyond all precedent,
and it seems rs if in the end the entire com
munity would realize the important fact,
that when all other medicines prescribed for
the above complaints fail, it can and does
effect a cure. As Il protection against the
diseases most common at this season, there
Is nothing comparable with it,

an entirely new process, which consists
in the use of raw limestone, charcoal
black oxide of manganese, sal Soda com.
mon salt, and pulverized rosin, com

which is now widely used, and from
which he has reaped quite n fortune.
No less than twenty-three of the lead
ing railways in America now use this
process, under license from the patentce,
for hardening the links, guides, pins, and
nuts of locomotives, affecting, we are
told, no less q saving than from five to
six hundred dollars annually on each
locomotive, in obyiating the lost motion
consequent upon the wear of links,
guides and pins.
