Don't Box Your Children's Ears.

We call the attention of parents, teach
ers and all those having charge of chill
dren to the fact that a physiological jour
nal condemns the practice of boxing
children's ears We bad supposed, in
this advanced age OF civilization, that
such barbarous punisments were only re
membered as relies of the darker ages
But it appears that the practice is sui
fcieutly common in some sections of the
country to call forth decided remon
STRANGE Besides being a brutal method
of punishment, it is dangerous. The
passage of the ear is closed by a thin
membrane, especially adapted to be in
fuenced by every impulse Of the air, and
with nothing but the air to support it in
terna!ly. Ii any one designed to break
or overstrain the membrane, he could
scarcely devise a more effective means
than to bring the hand suddenly and
forcibly down upon the passage Of The
ear, no possibility for its escape but by
the mem brane giving away. Many chill
dren are made deaf in this way.

Packing Butter.

At a meeting of the Bucks County
(Pa) Agricultural Society recently a
short essay by Miss Kate Craven, Of
Newtown. was read in response to the
question "Can butter be packed to
advantage in June or July for winter
use p Miss Craven was decidedly in
favor of packing butter in early summer,
when the price is usually so low as to be
Improbable. If properly put up then it
cannot be surpassed. 1t must be fresh

Remedy for Small Pox.

4 correspondent of the Philadelphia
Ecening Star says: GA great discovery
is reported to have been made by sur
geon of the English army in China, in
the way Of an etFectual cure for this ter
rble and loathsome disease. The mode
Of treatment is as follows: When the
fever is at its height, aud just before the
eruption appears, the chest is rubbed
with crcton oil and tartaric ointment
This causes the whole of the eruption 10
appear On that part of the body, to the re
lief Of all the rest. 1t also causes full
aud complete eruption, aud this prevents
the disease from attacking the internal
organs This was said to have been the
established mode of treatment 10 the Eng
lish army iii China, only few years
ago"

The Goldfish.

1t is curious to note the history of a
Goldfish from the moment when, on the
hook of the fisherman, it is dragged from
its native element, till it disappears down
the human throat on the banks of the
Amazon, the Parana, the Tagus, or the
Po. Alter few expiring wriggles-and
il is a comfort to be informed by naturaists
that fish are almost insensible to pain

upon the rough stage" where it is seized
by the "cut throat" who cuts the fish
open across the throat and down the belly,
and passes it to the ''heaier." This
operator proceeds TO extract the liver.
which is dropped into "a vessel by his
side, to be converted into cod liver OIL

to mix with hog and earth, thus forming
a most iertilizng compost for his fields
The tongue, however, is taken out, and
also the sounds or air bladder; and
these, fresh or picked, are an excellent
article of food The fish is then passed
to the splitter" who, by adexterous
