Hor BREAD.-One of the most iniu.
rions dietetic habits of Americans Ia
that eff eating fresh hot bread, cake
and biscuit. The Prussian govern
ment oompels bakers to keep their
bread at least one day before selling.
II Americans would follow their ex-
ample, there would be fewer dyspep-
tics than at present. There Is not one
dyspeptic Germans where there are q
dozen dyspeptic Americans. This, how
ever. is but one of many causes for
Sthis marked difference. The only.
fresh, hot bread that is wholly obj ec-
fionable, is the unleavened bread, ,
crackers, or gems.

New Remedies for Burns and
VA SCaldS.

A new remedy for burns was tried
by Mr.. Joel.!in the Children's Hospit-
al, in Lahsanne,l e,lSwitzerland. A child
four years of age had sbeeu seriously
burned ;suppurationw4s abundant and
30 offensive that they put the child in a
tepid bath, containing couple of pin
ches of sulphate of iron. This gave
immedia.e relief to the pain, and being
repeated twice day-twentyfm minutes
each bath-the suppuration decreased,
lost its odor, and the child was soon
eonvalescent. Another remedy is
charcoal laid on a burn, at once soothes
the pain, and If kept applied for an
hour, cures 1t completely.

THE POLE KAT.


Ny friend did you ever examine the
fragrant pole kat clussly?
1 guess not, they are kritter who
won't bear examining with a mikro-
skope.
They are bntiful beings, but oh!
how deceptive.
Their habits are phew, but unique
They bid their houses out ov earth,
and the houses have but one door tew
them, and that il a front door.
When they enter their houses they
don't shut the door after them.
They are called pole kats bekause it
liz not convenient tew kill. them with
klub, but with poles and the longer
the pole the more convenient.
Writers on natral history disagree
about the right length ov the pole TO
be used, but would suggest that the
pole be about 365 feet, cspeshily if the
wind IL in favor of the pole kat
When pole kat IL suddenly wailop-
ed with long pole, the fust thing
that he she or it doz, iz tew embalm
the air for meDny miles in diameter,
with an acrimonious oilfactery re-
freshmeut which permeates the ethe.
rial fluid with au entirely original
smell.
This smell IL less popular in the
fashionable world than iubins extrakt
but fhe day may cum when it will be
bottled up, like musk, and sold for 81
al-2 cents per bottle; bottles small at
that.
A pole kat will remove the filing
from a. hens egg, without braking a
hole IN the shell bigger than marrow
fat pea.
How this is did, historians hav left
us to doubt
This IL vulgarly called "surking
eggs"
This IL an accomplishment known
among humane, which 1t IL said they
hav learnt from the pole kats.
Pole kats also deal In chickens,yung
turkeys and yung goslins.
They won't tutch an old goose, they
are sound on that question.
Man IL the only phellow who will
attempt tew bite into an old goose,and
his teeth dy oph CRATE menny times
before he loosens emmy ov the meat
a pole kat travels under an alias,
which IL called skunk. There IL q
grste menny aliases that there is no
accounting for, and this IL one of
them.
] have kaught skunks In a trap.
They are easier to git into trap than
TO git out ov it.
In taking them ont ov a. trap CRATE.
judgment must be had not tew shake
them up; the more yu shake them ND
the moro ambrosial they am.
One pole kat in township IL enuff,
espeshiiy if the wind changes once in
while. @4
A pole kat skin IL with dollars in
market, afterit is skinned, but it IL
wuth dollars and fifty cents tew
akin him. AZ a 81 II
This IL one way to make II shillings
