A NeritahIe India Ruhher Man.

The Gardiner (Me } Journal gives the
following particulars of the wonderful
escape of Mr.. Joseph Glazier, of that
city, from instant DEATH He was ex-
aiming a paper mill in Topsham, and
while so engaged the skirt of his coat
caught IN the roll He immediately
bethought himself to throw off his coat.
but IN doing so his hand was drawn
into the rolls. "I'll let it pull nv arm
out, he thought to himself, but as the
merclless machinery pulled at the stout
muscles and tendons, Mr.. G. found
that his arm would not pull off without
breaking his neck. Just think of such
situation for a man to be in! Cody
submitting to his fate, he turned his
head over on the side to save his nose,
and through the space of about four
inches lie was drawn to his hips. He
says as the rolls passed over his head
it made noise like grinding coffee in
a mill, and that's the last he remem-
berS. The blood spirited from his eyes,
ears and mouth SO as to go on to the
dryer, twelve feet distant. He was
taken up for dead, but, strange to say,
he is now about the street. The space
he went through was about four inches,
we are told, but the upper roll could
rise little by what give there was tc
an 80-inch felt. The Journal naturally
remarks that it hardly seems possible
that man could be ground through
such small space and live.

\ Years Vital Statistics in London,

London, with population of 3, 500, :
900 still grows rapidly. The number
Of births last year was 112, 535-against
so, 332 deaths, The estimated increase
of population between the middle of
1871 and of 1872 is As, 719; so that the
natural increase was supplemented by
about 10000, representing the excess
OF immigration over emigration. The
birth-rate in London in 1871 was equal
to "a. 5 per thousand persons, being @. 5
below the rate for all England. The
birthrate (says the Times) varies re-
markedly in different sections of the
population, depending much upon ages,
proportion Of the sexes, coniugal con-
ditions, and social position. The
death rate in London IN
1871 was PAT per 1000, being
81 above the rate for all England ex-
elusive of the deaths from small -pox
the London death-rate would have been
only 22.3. As it was, the rate of NOR
tality was higher than in any year since
1856, when cholera was epidemic. The
male death rate of London in 1871 was
26.6, while among females it was only
22.8; at the recent census there were
1897 females living in London to each
100 males. in 1871 there were 2, 594
deaths from violent causes in London,
2, 1873 of them from negligence OF acct
dent, including 900 from fractures and
Commissions, among which are 2OS deaths
caused by horses or vehicles in the
streets. Among the deaths by negli-
gence or accident are 400 from suffoca-
ton, nearly all cases of infants there
were 100 cases of murder or man
slaughter, nearly all of them cases of
infanticide.

To Make :, sheen Own q Lamb.

A correspondent of the Maine Far
mer, writes: Sometimes it is desirable
to make one sheep own the lamb of
another, but often it is a difficult task.
An experiment that we tried a few days
since proved perfect success, and was
easily conducted; and for the benefit
of those similarly situated we commu-
nicate it to yeur columns. One of our
sheep lost her lamb. In a few days a
yearling dropped lamb which she did
not own, and in fact had no milk for it.
We took the lamb Immediately after it
was dropped and sprinkled it with fine
salt and placed it with the sheep that
had lost her lamb. AS soon as she
tasted the salt she commenced licking
the lamb, and III short time was as
fond of it as she was of her own. She
is now taking the greatest care of he1
adopted charge.

The Manufacture OF Butter


Perhaps there is no article of food Of
which we hear such extraordinary, and
indeed alarming facts, as butter. The
commodity itself, SO universally popu-
lar, is supposed to taste almost literally
of Flora and the country green, to be
an honest preparation from the pastoral
dairies. But we are told that London
butter is a triumph of the wicked
chemistry of adulteration. 1t has it's
basis in Thames mud at one time, at
another in lard, and it appears that it's
latest origin is horse-fat A confectioner
accused arrival in the same business the
other day OF using the last-named ma
terial instead of butter, and although
the charge was denied, the notice may
render the admirers of cOnfect.Oners
goods uncomfortable. 1t may be,
however, a sort of fanciful accusation
on the pant Of one sweetstuif dealer
towards another. The horses that are
led from the cabs to the knockers would
not furnish very much of the raw ma
terial mentioned in the transaction to
which we have referred. Our best
safeguard from the horse-fat butter lies
in the~simple fact that no fat horses
are killed.

A CURIOUS and valuable tree is the
Stillingia Sabifera, or tallow tree OF
China. It's most important peculiarly
is that it contains separately, in nearly
a pure state, the two proximate prin-
ciples of animal tallow, stearine and
elaine. 1t has other uses. It's leaves
are employed as black dye; its wood
is hard and durable, and may be easily
used for the blocks in printing Chinese
books and various other articles and,
finally, the refuse of the nut serves fo1

DURING the fever epidemic Of last
month, the stock of Ayers Ague Cure in the
OLD North State became exhausted, and be-
fore supply could be received from Lowell,
the suffering from chills and fever, became
fearful. a few parties were so fortunate as
to have it on hand, and in Iredell county, the
druggists eked out their slender stocks by
selling doses-a spoonful each-for dollar.
Many paid ten dollars for a bottle, when the
regular price is but one, and thought them
selves favored at that, so valuable are the
curative properties of this preparation. which
not only expels the poison from the system.

Little NobOdy.-A Valentine story.

Little NobOuy.-A aIcntiTse story.
BY FRANK R. STOCKTON,
There was a little girl once, a young
thing, ten or eleven, or more or less,
and she lived in a house which was not
a palace But it had a garden in front
Of it and trees about it, and she might
have been happy if it had not been for
the holidays coming ronnd so often in
the year. People were generally very
happy in those days when the holidays
came around, but it was different with
her. She worked and sewed through
al common weekdays, but it seemed
wrong to work and sew on holidays.
And yet that was all she had to do
And 1t so happened that Valentine S
Day was coming around, and it made
her sad to think of it. And SO she sat
by the window and looked out over the
bare garden, and sang, and sang the
same little song. And the song was
nothing but this:

Another Estate Purchased by the Roths-
ChiIdS.

Another splendid estate. consisting
of a noble mansion, with deer park of
three hundred acres, and comprising
altogether 3, 643 acres, has passed into
the hands of the Rothschilds. This is
Tring Park, in Hertfordshire. which,
up to the time Of Charles H., was royal
property. This makes the third LARGE
property in the neighborhood which is
owned by this family-Gunnersbury,
formerly royal residence. and Ment-
more, now magnificent palace, being
already in their hands. The Roths-
childs have not, however, been for their
means large investors in English real
estate, contenting themselves with
such an amount of property as gives
them consequence and pleasure as
country gentlemen. Baron Lionel is
the purchaser of the Tring for 923O 900.
The SUPREME QUEsTIoN.-Health is
the most important of earthly bless
lngs, and therefore the nervous anxiety
OF the sick to ascertain the relative
merits of the various medicines in use
is not surprising. Within the last two
years many thousands of invalids have
abandoned the preparations of the
pharmacopolst for the remedy intro
duced by DR.. Walker, of California, I'M
der the somewhat eccentric name of
VINEGAR BITTERs. That this new veg.
etabIe medicine is winning golden
opinions Of all sorts of people is be-
yond a doubt. The accounts we hear
Of its extraordinary effects in cases of
chronic dyspepia, rheumatism, liver
complaints, malarious fevers, nervous
prostrations and many other distressing dis
eases, certainly Justify the popularity which it
has everywhere acquired.
Dr. Walker claims for his specific remedial
power over ali disorders that do not involve an
irreparable destruction Of bone and fibre, and
results so far appear to have justified the
claim In this age of wonders we are not dis
posed to deny the possibility of any phenom-
ena not directly at variance with the laws of
nature, and, as it is held by many physiolo-
gists that all naladies proceed from the same
generic cause, We see no reason for the incred-
ulty with which some people regard the idea
Of Universal Medicine. DR. Walkers pre-
paration seems destined to to be universally
approved.-COm.
