1t isn't great many years since the
American neck was first encircled by a
paper collar. and yet vast industry
has grown out of the manufacture OF
that very questionable article of beauty,
which is anything but a Joy forever.
Paper shirt fronts and cuff. next came
in, and now we learn that an enterpris.
ing dealer. without the least considera-
ton of the washerwomen, has intro.
duced to the American market whole
suits of paper clothing. What may
come of This innovation it is impossil lie
to say; but if newspapers, after they
become stale, could be used for pur-
poses of costume, it might be good

could wrap themselves in World

end of people could cover themselves

the only trouble being that they are too
thin and won't wash. Joking aside, the
days of paper clothing are not far dis

Taking Cold.

If a cold settles on the outer covering
Of the lungs it becomes pneumonia, in
fammation of the lungs, or lung fever,
which in many cases carries the strong
est man to his grave within q week. If
cold falls upon the inner covering of
the lungs it is pleurisy, with its knife
like pains and its slow, very slow recov-
cries. If a cold settles in the joints,
there is rheumatism, with its agonies of
pain, and rheumatism of the heart,
which in an instant sometimes snaps
the cords of life with no friendly warn
ing. 1t is of the utmost practical i'm
portance, then, in the wintry weather,
to know not so much how to cure cold
as to avoid it. Colds always come from
one cause, some part of the whole of
the body being colder than natural for
time. If man will keep his feet
warm always, and never allow himself
to be chilled, he will never take cold in
a lifetime, and this can only be accom-
plished by due care in warm clothing,
and the avoidance of drafts and undue
exposure. While multitudes of colds
come from cold feet, perhaps the ma
.jority arise from persons cooling off too
quickly after becoming little warmer
than is natural from exercise or work, or
from confinement to warm apartment.

Forever giving off caloric, yet its

is problem that has exercised the in.
genuity of philosophers who hold to
the Old theory that the sun is glowing

amount of radiating heat into unmeas-

of the center of the solar system ere

accumulating ratio exactly equal to

universe must have inevitably ensued
soon after the morning stars sang
together in concert.
TO meet that necessary contingency,
another theory has been announced,
viz: That the suns heat is kept up to
the required status for sustaining all
worlds within its nebular jurisdiction by
the destruction of millions of inetcors.

japanese Manners.

Just at this time much interest is felt
in tnc customs OF the Japanese, and the
more we learn of them the more we
find to admire. They never smoke
opium. They have small pipes that
will hold three good whiffs. and of the
milde.t Turkish tobacco. They have a
clubhouse in Yokohama, of which the
hig'. officials are members. They have
none at Yeddo, the capital. They have
the games of chess, cards, and dominoes.
Their cards are different from ours,
but the essential principles of the game
are the same. Latterly they have be-
come large importers of billiard tables,
and the game is fast assuming there
high rank. They are great wrestlers, md
every year the champion wrestler wins
the embroidered apron, which he is
allowed to wear one year. No Japanese
is allowed to cut down a tree unless he
plant. arotber Under the law, the
mother is held responsible for the good
conduct Of her children. If Il trouble
occurs in the street, the parties living
opposite &e held responsible for it.
Their idea Is that citizens must be their
own policemen. How would that plan
do with us? We call ourselves enlight-
ened, and should be equal to the task of
self government. All married women
haqe their eyebrows shaved. Married
men have no distinctive mark-which is
pity. The Japanese have their illus
trated Punch: besides that, sixteen
newspapers, with three English-the
Hrrald, the Mail, and the News-pub-
lished in Yokohama. The present En-
peror is the one hundred and twenty.
fourth in regular line. In these gener-
ations there have been eight females.
The present Emperor, Moutsouhito, is
six feet high, twenty-five years old, and
a fine specimen Of man.

Japanese Coin.

We learn from California exchanges
Just received that the enormous sum of
two million dollars in japanese gold
currency was recently brought to San
Francisco to be refined and prepared for
the coinage under the new system
adopted in Japan. These coins, called
"nibos," are fiat pieces, of gold about
one inch long and half an inch wide,
containing 20 per cent. OF silver, and
are valued at tiity-three cents each. The
metal is to be returned in the gold bars
of about 900 fine, ready to be converted
into coin. The silver separated from
the coin is also to be returned in fine
silver bars. The coined money in circu
lation in Japan amounts in value to
fifty millions of dollars, and it vas
found that with limited refining works
in that country it would take five years
to accomplish the object of changing
the currency. Arrangements were there
fore made with the gold retineries of
San Francisco to refine S20, 100000 worth
of "nibos," the coin 10 be sent at the
rate of S2,0O0,000 per month. The Jap
anese have II mint at Hogo, where the
refined bars are turned into the new
coinage.

Cures for HydrOphObIa.

This is the time for publishing the
various cures of hydrophobia, but a
catalogue of all of them would be too
much for the crowded state of these
columns. When apatient is seized with
this disease: |. Inject morphine under
the skin. >. Give half a dram of pow
dered castor internally. 3. Administer
small quantities of chloroform by inhala.

saturated with awarm solution of nitrate
of ammonia. 5. Apply oil of juniper
externally. 6. Administer vapor baths.
I. Put the Iatient pom diet of raw

An Intractable Savage.

The Faculty of Amherst Agricultural
College have caught wild Indian, and
are trying to teach him the peaceful art
of husbandry. The red brother, teach
able in the main, is subject to violent
fits of passion. When his chum, a
white man, asked him to be quiet, he
playtully poked him with bayonet,
which was lying handy, an chewed up
three of his fingers in a rapid and dex-
trous manner. He was finally seized
and tied. At last accounts he was foam
ing at the mouth, raving, threatening,
and yelling like the wild auimal which
he really is. The Faculty are disposed
to give up trying to tame him, and
think of shipping him to the West.
His fellow students are strongly in favor
of the nolicy of denomination.

A Good Story.

Who will forget the convivial Joy
with which we celebrated the happy
Treaty of Washington How fortunate
that our joy took time by the forelock !!
The present scene recalls the lrishman's S
experience Seeing bull in the field,
tearing up the ground with his horns,
the notion struck him of jumping nim-
bly, over. the fence and .iamming the
bulls nose in the dirt. The idea was
so comical that he laughed till he could
not stand. On recovering a little, he
proceeded to put his plan into practice
but somehow found himself going
through the air over the fence again
Picking himself up slowly, and family
brushing at the dirt upon his clothes, he
sighed: And wasn't it lucky that |
had me laugh before | went over
beyant ?"-He,uy Ward Beecher.

Advice to Young Men.

We find the following advice to young
men in the Altoona Tribune: Young
men, get married you will never be
worth last years robins nest unless
you do. The fruits of disobedience are
misery and misfortune, and you will
never be truly happy while in disobe-
dience to Gods commandment to our
first parents in the Garden. Remember
that there are seventy five thousand
more marriageable ladies in the United
States than gentlemen, and three hun
dred thousand more females than
males. Imagine yourself at the bar of
Judgement with seventy-fve thousand
spinsters with toothless Jaws, and
tongues sharpened on the grindstones
of temper, and honed on the strap of
unrequted affection Of your accusers :;
surely your chances for eternal bliss
would not be very 1attering. And
furthermore, remember that unper-
formed duties always come home to
roost. so you will be likely to go through
the world with holes in the heels of
your stockings, and your elbows out,
and finally die unregretted and be for
gotten like any other brute.

A Remarkable Career.

A Frenchman with history died the
other day in San Francisco. His name
was Grandillet, and his age was sixty
five. At the age of twelve he embarked
as a ship-boy upon brig, and therein
made several voyages in the China seas
He next took service as chief cook in a
Dutch three masted schooner, and sailed
on two or three voyages to the coast of
Africa. This vessel, he it stated. was a
SLAYER, and on one occasion, when pur-
sued by cruiser, it was run ashore by
its crew, who escaped into the interior.
In this extremity Grandillet was cap
tured by the soldiers of petty African
king, who ordered him to be baked and
served up for the royal supper. But,
fortunately, Grandillet obtained Glenn
ency by announcing himself as a cook,
and promising the king touch of his
European cookery if his life should be
spared. His offer was accepted, and a
native prisoner was handed over to him,
who W IS " furnished forth" la Marengo
Thus saved by his culinary skill, Gran
dillet became the vatel of the African
chief, to whom he taught the secret of
how to pickle meats. The king became
so addicted to picked dishes that he
constantly called for them at his meals.
In order to satisfy his appetite in this
direction, he even undertook a war,
and ordered all the prisoners captured
by his soldiers tie be picked. But one
day Grandillet succeeded in escaping,
and, picked up by passing vessel, he
was landed at San Francisco, which he
afterward made his home. Among his
papers was found detailed narrative of
his sojourn with the cannibal king.
