Cholera Remedy.


The New York Journal o Commerce says:
More than forty years ago. when it was found
that prevention for the Asiatie cholera was
easier than cure. the learned doctors of both
hemispheres drew up o prescription, which
was published Cfor working people in the
New York Sur, and took the name of the
.. SIN cholera mixture" Our contemporary
never lent his name to better article: We
have seen it in constant use for nearly two
score years, aud found it to be the best rem
edy for iooseness of the bowels ever vet de-
vised. 1t is to be commended for several
reasons. Il is not to be mixed with liquor,
aud therefore will not be used as an alcoholic
beverage; its ingredients are we'll Known
among all. the common people, and it viii have
no prejudice to combat; each of the materials
is in equal proportion to the others, and it
may therefore be compounded without pro-
fessional skill; and, as the dose is SO very
small, it may be carried in a tiny vial in the
waistcoat pcket and be always at hand 1t
is: Tincs. OPT, capsiehi, rhei CO., menth pip,
campho. Mix the above in, equal parts; dose,
ten to thirty drops. In plain terms, take
equal parts tincture opium, red pepper, rhu>
barb, peppermint and camphor, and mix them
for use. In case of disrrhea, take q dose Of
ten to twenty drops, in three or four teaspoons
fnls of water. No one who has this by him,
and takes it in time, will ever have the chol.
era. We commend it to our Western friends.
and hope that the recipe will be widely pubs
l!shed. Even when the cholera is not antici-
pated, it is an excellent remedy for ordinarz
Summer complaint.

Why Some Towns Grow.

There are many towns on all sides, not as
favored by natural advantages, that have
sprung up into cities while the mass has been
accumuatins, and grass growing in the streets
of othef places. Such items as the following.
to be found i'd commercial and scientific ex-
changes, may perhaps throw some light on the
mystery:
TO CAR Observation-Disclosures CIV. W
offers sl0,O and exemption from taxation
for ten years to any company that will estab-
lish factory there; to employ at least one
hundred men.
To MANuFAcTURERs.-M Illinois,
offers $4,000 to any company that will locate
in that place and engage in manufacturing
there.
This is the way that towns are made to
grow, and here is the key to the whole secret
Some places don't require the public to run
gauntlet of toli>gates and toll>bridges for the
privilege of getting into town to spend their
money. And when manufacturers come around
for site, building lots and water privileges
are not stilted up to fancy prices. Indeed, if
such Wide>awake towns as the above were of
fsred State bounty of say $4,000 the '.best
citizens" would not 60 to work to throw a
damper on the whole thing. But there is
now and then an old conservative who thinks
the town isn't prospecting if enough grass
doesen't grow in the street to pasture his COW.

RoBBrNG THE MAILS. f,


| RoBBTNG THE MAILS. - For
months past, the popular and re-
liable publishers, Messrs.gHunter
g. Co., of Hinsdale, ". H., have
been annoyed and dismayed at
the immense losses of valuable
letters which We're daily 0ccurr-
ing. Aided by the chief Detect
i've and two special p. O. Agents
they have at last the satisfaction
of seeing the thief-a night clerk
in the Boston p. 0. --"behind the
bars" and has confessed all.
Messrs. III. & Co.'S losses have
been enormous; in fact no exact
estimate, can at present be made.
The thief carefully examined,
aided by the light, every letter,
and took eueTy one that contained
money. He was caught ia the
act and arrested, and, if he gets
his dues, will board with the
State for from five to ten years.
Meantime the prosperous business
of Hunter & Co. goes on with its
usual energy, promptness and
care, and those who have lost
by mail will now see just
aohere it a0eat, and avoid giving
the blame to honest persons.

The Eucalyptus Tree for Tim bsr

Mr.. Patterson and John B. Eel.
ton are making an interesting ex-
pertinent at stheiry-raneh near
San Pedro, in San Mateo county,
California, in raising the Euca-
lyptus tree for use as timber.
These trees are raised from the
seed, growing the proper size for
! transplanting after some three Or
four months. The ground Is then,
properly prepared, and the trees
are planted eight feet apart-thus
giving between eight and nine
hundred Stress to the acre. For
the first two or three years the
ground is at intervals of few
months cultivated with the plow
or harrow. The trees are allowed
to grow naturally, only clipping
the foliage from the wind ward
side, where the growth is more
dense, in order to preserve the
equilibrium Of the tree. 1t is sup
posed that about eight years will
be required for the growth of the
crop to a time profitable for the
first harvest, and the estimated
value for railroad ties, fence posts,
and wood, will be not less than
$500 per acre. After the trees are
cut, from the stumps will spring
new shoots; only one will be al
lowed to grow, and thus new
crop of timber is raised. 1t is said
that this timber will grow thrift
lily upon barren lands, requiring
but little care and attention. There |
are hundreds of places along the
Pacific Slope where the Eucalyp- |!
tus would thrive and prove of
great benefit to the grower and |
add greatly to the beauty of the |
locality. The farmer would find |
it to his advantage to grow this
tree around the margins Of his |
fields. Cattle will not browse up
on the leaves, as they are strong
and bitter as quinine. The bark
is said to possess valuable medici-
nal qualities. There is no other
tree that grows SO rapidly, or the
timber of which is more valuable.
