Blue Light Cure.

At recent meeting of the Phila-

Pleasonton read an interesting paper on
the effects of sunlight on plants and
animals when transmitted through blue
glass. Geraniums which had become
unhealthy recovered their vigor and be-
came more deeply colored when cover.

of the same grapevine showed re-
markable difference in their growth of
leaves according as they were or were
not covered with blue grass, the leaves
on the former having a diameter of six
to eight inches, being of a deep. green
color and perfectly healthy; while the
uncovered branches were only two
inches in diameter, and of a pale, sick
ly.yellowish color, indicating a feeble
vitality. The paper also mentioned a
case of the wife of a Philadelphia physi-
clan, who had for some time been sut-
fering from complication of disorders
which had battied the skill of her
physicians, and who, on the suggestion
of Gen. Pleasonton, tried the following
plan: Every other pane Of glass in one
of the windows OF the PATIENTS room

GreaSing Wagons.

The Ohio Farmer says more injury is
done to carriages by greasing too plen-
tifully than the reverse. Tallow is
recommended as better lubricator
than lard for wood axle-trees, and castor
oil for iron lard is apt to penetrate the
hub, and work its way out around the
lemons of the spokes and spoil the
wheel. Just enough grease should be
applied to the spindle of a wagon to
give it light coating. To oil an iron
axle, first wipe clean with cloth wet
with spirits of turpentine, and then
apply few drops of castor oil near the
shoulder and end. One teaspoonful is
enough for the four.

De Witt Clinton-His Duel with John
SMart " out.

If YOU wish to know what manner OF
vouno man De Witt Clinton was, you
have only TO read the official report OF
the duel which he fought in 1902 with
John Swartwort, at Weehawken. Gin
ton was then opposing Aaron Burr, aud
Swartwout accused him of being ac-
tuated in his opposition only by per-
sonal and selfish motives.
"He is { liar, a scoundrel, and a
villain" exclaimed the hot-headed
Clinton.
A challenge followed, and the duel
was fought. suppose that ii was the
most remarkable affair of the kind that
ever occurred-out of Ireland. The
first fire doing no harm to either an
taronst. one OF the seconds asked
SwartwOut:
Are you satisfied, sir?'
81 am not" said he, with more blunt
ness than courtesy.
They fired second time without
effect
Are you satisfied, sir?' asked the
second.
Mop .hundered Swartwout.
The men fired third time without
effect, when the same gentleman again
politely asked Mr.. Swartwout if he was
satisfied.
~ am not" was the reply; neither
will be until that apology is made
which have demanded. Until then,
we must proceed"
Swarlwout's second then presented a
paper containing the apology demanded
for Clinton's signature, saying:
"We cannot spend our time in con,
versation. This paper must be signed,
or proceed"
| will not sign any paper on the
subject said Clinton, with tirmness
and dignity. :" have no animosity
against Mr.. Swartwout. will willingly
shake hands, and agree to meet on the
score Of former friendship"
The fourth fire then took place, when
Clnton's ball struck his obstinate an.
tagonist in the left leg below the knee.
care you satisfied sir p the wounded
man was again asked.
Standing firmly at his post, he an
swered:
:" 1T is useless to repeat the question.
My determination is fixed, and beg we
may proceed
While the surgeon was extracting the
ball rom the opposite side OF Swart-
wout's leg, Clinton again declared that
he had no luminosity against Swartwout,
that he was sorry for what had passed,
and was willing to 20 forward, shake
hands, and bury the circumstance in
oblivion. Swartwout, however, stand.
ing erect at his place, insisted upon the
written apology. A fifth time they
iired, and Clinton's ball struck his an
lagonist in the same leg, Il little below
the former wound.
"Are you satisfied, sir?' asked the
second.
81 am not, sir " replied Swartwout
"proceed."
Clinton then left his station, threw
down his pistol, and declared that he
would fight no more.
Whereupon Swartwout, turning to
his second, asked what he should do
to which the second replied:
"There is nothing further left tol
you now, but to have your wounds
| dressed"
So the combat ended, and the two
parties returned in their barges to the
city.
Such was Clinton at thirty three
when he had already been member OF
the Legislature, and was about to enter
the Senate of the United States. He
was brave to rashness, and ambitious
beyond measure; but he lived up to
the standard of his day, and acquitted
himself of every trust with honor and
distinction.

The Smithsonian Institute.

From Prof. Hcnry's report of the
Smithsonian Institute, it appears that
the $4,000 appropriated by Congress,
and the $4,000 income from the Smith
sonIan fund, have been devoted TO the
rebuilding of the PARTS destroyed by
fire. 1t is proposed to ultimately sep
arate the National Museum from the
Institute. For the special accommodate
ton of the Museum the large room in
the west wing, formerly occupied by the
library, has been prepared for the re.
ception of cases for meteorological and
geological specimens while the great
hall, 200 feet by 80, in the second story
of the main building, has been com
pleted, and is now ready to receive the
cases for the anthropological and other
specimens. 1t is believed, too, that per
feet security against fire has been SC.
complished in the reconstruction.
A DEATHS HEAD AND CRossBoNEs ought
to be the trade mark of every de Ter in
Rum Bitters. But no; to proclaim
their real mission would ruin them, so
they sail under false colors, and do their
deadly work surreptitiously. Fortu-
nately their triumphs over crcdulity
are nearly at an end. Ever since the
introduction of DR.. WALKERS CALIFoR-
MA VINEGAR BITTERs the sale of all the
burning fluids advertised AS "tonics"
has been rapidly declining. They are
still the unwholesome solace of indi-
vduals who wish to satisfy a morbid
appetite for strong drink, without com
promising their rcspectability but the
sick are every where dscarding them, and
adopting the VINEGAR BrrTERs. The success
of this wonderful vegetable remedy astonshes
Dr. Walker himself. He believed, when he
gave it to the world that it was an unequaled
tonic, free from the objections urged
against the medicated tire-waters and dilu-
tions of strychnne, quinine and other power

but he scarcely expected that ii would prove a
