Wars HoRRoRs.-A Virginia paper
says, in referring to the photographic in
conveniences of the rFanco- German war,
" For several weeks after the war broke
out we made the most conscientious efforts
with the aid of maps and cyclopedias to
get names and localities right, but as the
field of contest enlarged, they crowded
on us so thick and fast that we had to
give it up 1t would have required two
or three men forty-eight hours out of
each day to look them up. For reasons
like these, the war is getting to be I'M
popular with the newspapers. The strain
on the jawbones is too great and contin-
nous. And yet it is mere child's play
to what Russian war would be. With
every despatch from st. Petersburg or
the Euxine we should have half hun
dred such jawbreakers as these Cherlky-
ernozoff, Kickerbootzoff, Sneezeheadoff,
Nijii, Novergorotyerclozoff-a not one
of them in the cyelopedias or on the
maps. The Franco German unpleasant
ness is bad enough, but deliver us from
any belgerent turn of the Eastern ques-
ton.

HOPELESS Inyalids in Southern Hotels.

The Boston 7rdpeier says: "A lady
who had been boarding at Southern
hotel, among sick and dying Northern
people, writes Indignantly to her friends
about the cruelty of sending hopeless
invalids away from the conveniences
of home, to suffer and die among stran-
gers, without any home comforts and
alleviations. And yet, physicians are
continually doing this same thing. Hav-
ing a patient for whom they can do moth
ing, they send him South, with the de-
lusive hope of recovery, when there is
nothing before him but sad and soli-
tary death, away from home and friends.
In the incipient stages OF disease, and
when the patient is well enough to take
care OF himself, and to bear without
great suffering the trough and tumble +"
of ga life abroad, it may be an excel
lent prescription to try Southern eli
mate but where the disease has got a
firm hold, the cases are very few in
which an experiment is advisable or safe,

GERMAN REVENGE. But in strong
contrast to these instances of German
clemency is the following, which is true
recital of which happened in recent
encounter The Fourth Company of
the One Hundred and Seventh Prussian
Regiment had taken French camp,
most of whose occupants fled, while
those who remained feigned surrender
The German officer in command advanc-
ed with polite bow to the French chief,
who while delivering up his sword with
one hand suddenly fred revolver at
the German with the other. He was but
slightly wounded, but the rest of the
French soldiers taking the shot, as a
signal, all fired upon him simultaneously,
and he fell pierced with many mortal
wounds. The Germans, who were in
much larger numbers, were so maddened
with rage at the sight of their dead lead
er that they fell upon the French prison
ers and put them all to death.

Something for our Young Readers.

Hearth and Home tells its young read
ers how to take coin out of water with
out wetting the hand, and this is their
method: Fill plate with water to the
depth of about quarter of an inch q
coin is then placed in the water piece
of paper is lighted, and put, while burn
ing Oh the surface Of the water, and COW
cred with tumbler. AS the paper burns
under the tumbler, the water will rush
up under the tumbler, and leave the coin
in the plate, when it may be lifted with
out wetting the fingers. This is very
interesting experiment, as it affords a
good illustration of the expansive power
of heat, and of the pressure of the atmos-
phere. But we will tell our young
friends of more wonderful and equally
simple method of doing the same thing.
Suppose you were required to take O
coin from the bottom Of deep jar, or
even a pail of water without wettine
your hand, and suppose further that
your naked hand was to be thrust
through the water, how do you suppose
it could be done? Simply by shaking O
little lycopodium, Ia substance that may
be procured cheaply at any drug store, ),
over the surface of the liquid. Their
plunge your hand boldly but steadily in
to the water and it will not wet you il
the least The cause of the waters moi
wetting the hand is the same in princi
pie as that which causes the dew-drop'
to stand in spherical drops on the cab
bage-leaf, and the water to roll off thu
ducks back without wetting it. By {
somewhat similar power, spiders ant
other insects walk on the surface of wa
ter without wetting themselves, ant
without sinking in the liquid to any per
ceptible degree.

the third verse. "A time to dance On
the following Sabbath evening the Doc

WITHOUT AN ENEMY.-Heaven help
the man who imagines he can dodge
enemies by trying to please everybody.
If such an individual ever succeeded,
we should be glad of it-not that one
should be going through the world try
ing to find beams to knock and thump
his poor head against, disputing every
mans opinion, fighting, and elbowing,
and crowding all who differ with him.
That again, is another extreme. Other
people have right to their opinions
SO have you don't fall into the error
of supposing they will respect you more
for turning your coat every day to
match the color of theirs. Wear your
own colors in spite of winds and wealth
er, storms and sunshine.

KEEP Your Tor Cool. -Artemus Ward
once during q journey across the Plains
offered a stage-driver drink Of whiskey
from his flask, which was refused in most
decided terms. Said the driver:
81 don't drink / won't drink. And
! don't like to see any body else drink.
! am of the opinion of those mountains
keep your top cool. They've got snow,
and I've got brains that's all the differ
ence."
There is a wealth of wisdom in the
sententious remark, keep your top
cool" The fountain of mans power
and happiness is in his brain. Alcohol
is foe of the brain, and when it gets
there, either benumbs it or perverts its
action. Remember the stage-driver's
curt philosophy.

EATING THEIR FEATHERS. Eating each
Others feathers is q habit which fowls
often contract when confined in yards,
but is not, perhaps, fully understood.
" 1t is morbid appetite, says writer
in the Cultivator, apparently induced
IN the onset by the the impotence of
the fowls under confinement. 1t is
well known that fowls are very fond of
blood, and when moulting, the new
feathers are called blood-shot that is,
the end of the quilts, when quite young,
have drop or so of blood, which in
duces the fowls to pluck for the blood
contained in them +; and we have known
it to be kept up until some individuals
of the flock, who were made special vic :
tins, were almost denuded of their feath-
ers, and sometimes have even had their
entrails torn out.

nearly $50 miles by the completion of
the West Wisconsin Railway. Only "a
miles of this important line remain to

cars running to st. Paul early in the

stand high in the markets, the interest
being paid very promptly, and the in

as one of the best, if not the best, be-
