Use Of the Eustachian rube.

The chief use of the Eustachian tube is to AL
low a free interchange of air between the ear
and the throat, and this is exceedingly impor-
tant; and it is very important also that its use
In this respect should be understood Persons
who 60 down in diving bells soon begin to feel a
great pressure in the ears, and, if the depth is
great, the feeling becomes extremely painful
This arises from the fact that in the diving bell
the pressure of the air Is very much increased
in order to balance the weight OF the water
above; and thus it presses with great force
upon the membrance of the drum which. if
the Eustachian tube has been kept closed has
only the ordinary unc0mpressed air on the inner
side TO sustain 1T. 1t is Therefore forced inward
and put upon the stretch, and might be even
broken. Many cases, indeed, have occurred of
injury to the ear, producing permanent deaf
ness, from descents in diving bells undertaken
by persons ignorant Of the way i'm which the ear
is made; though the simple precaution of fire.
quent swallowing suffices to ward of all mis-
cnlei. , ror, II the Eustachian tube is thus
opened, again and again, as the pressure of tine
outside air Increases. the same compressed air
mat exists ousi,.e passes also into the inside of
tne drum, and the membrance is equally
pressed upon from both sides by the air, and so
Is free from strain. The same precaution is ne
cessary In ascending mountains that are LOFTY,
Tor then there is the same effect Of stretching
produced upon the membrane, though in the
opposite way. The outside air becoming lass
and less condensed as a greater height is gained
the ordinary air contained within the drum
presses upon the membrane, which Is thus in
sufficiently supported on the outside. and
similar feeling of weight and stretching is pro-
duced. The conjurer's trick of breaking vase
by word rests on the same principle. The air
Is exhausted from within, and the thin though
massive looking sides of the vase collapse by
the pressure of the air outside; and Just as ever
SO small hole, made at the right moment in
the side Of the vase, would prevent the whole
enect, 50 does swallowing, which makes a little
hole, as 1t were, for the moment in the drum of
the ear, nreyent the in-pressing or ut-pressing
OF the membrane. Mr.. Tyndall, in his inter.
esting book "On Sound, }" tells us how he en-
ployed this precaution Of swallowing, and with
entire success, when, in one of his mountain
excursions, the pressure on his ears became

Murder as a Religious Exercise.

About three miles from the little village of
Catskill on the Hudson River, there stands a
small weather-beaten house, the home OF a
family OF Germans Of the name of Waltz. The
family, which consists of the father and the
mother and son about twenty three years old,
obtains a livelihood by the cultivation OF a
vineyard which surrounds the house. To this
house, on the second day of the present MONTH
there came an old German, of the name OF Har
mon Hulcher, and by practice scissors
grinder. He never was seen to come out OF the
house; suspicious of foul play grew up in the
community, and on the sixteenth of May the
father and son were arrested on the charge OF
numbering their guest.
Various evidences that Hulcher died a violent
death came to light, and under the increasing
pressure Oh TINS circumstantlal testimony the
young man on Saturday promised to tell the
truth. He was taken from the Jail to his home,
and there made the following explanation:
. Father is innocent. On May first the scissors
grinder came TO our house. / was down in the
lot. After supper father and mother went to
bed. Hulcher, the scissors grinder, went next,
and l went to my room and opened my tesla
ment. As laid down on the bed an evil spirit
came over me. went outdoors and got Ratchet
down on the floor. My conscience fought
with all its might not to do the horrible act,
but the evil spirit was the stronger. / took
up the Ratchet and struck Hulcher on the
head with the hammer part. He made but
little noise then struck him twice with the
blade He struggled a little and then died.
1 took the body out alone, past the barn to the
stone wall, and then put a few blankets and
stun over the body. left the body there one
day; next day and the next night, when father
and mother were abed, / placed the body in q
hole which L dug, and prayed for the mans
soul that had buried i felt better then. 1
cleaned up in the house, and so father thought
in the morning that the scissors grinder had
stolen the missing blanket. 1 found in his
pocket $50 or $40 in bills and currency, and
some silver coin 1 took the machine down be-
hind the fence, and locked up the bell in nv
trunk. Three nights afterward went up the
road near Coxsackie on foot, and there left part
of Hulcher's machine, and nailed a letter to
the telegraph pole. L burned his clothes and
The truthfulness of this statement is shown
by the fact that after making it young Waltz
pointed out to the officers the place where the
murdered man was buried, and upon digging
they found the mangled body. We must be-
!ieve, therefore, that this young man did read
his Bible before killing Hulcher, and that he
round comfort, after the dreadful burial, in
praying for the soul of the murdered man.
This strange confusion of moral notions affords
ground for much curious but unsatisfactory
speculation 1t Is easy to say that he was dis
ordered in his wits, but that is the vaguest of
explanations.

the bell sounded again, when, a watch

ringing went on. The bell stopped as soon as

that not enough had been provided for the cele-

How A Danbury Man Ast0nishes his
Wife.

1t is very rarely indeed a man leaves his wife
in bed asleep and slips softly into the kitchen TO
stove. When he does, It is an event OF some i'm
portance in the family history, and the way he
does it affords material for edifying reflection
for days at a time. He first moistens the black
ing by filling the saucer to the brim with water
Some OF this he spills on his pants, but gem
orally manages to get the greater part OF il on
the carpet. Then he grasps the brush firmly in
his right hand, and setting the saucer on the
floor where 1t is handy to step in, he goes 70
work, and for the next fifteen minutes a most
astounding complication of noises proceeds from
that kitchen. There is the whisk of the brush
as it glides over the smooth places, and then a
sharp rap as il comes in contact with an unex-
pected angle. There is a sort of kissing noise
made by himself, and which indicates that the
stove is occupying his entire attention, And
this Is occasionally relieved by sundry exclama-
tons which may or may not have reference to
the work in hand-such as "ouch!" "C-h-r-i-s-
and lightning" and the like. The final noise
is snap OF something like crockery, which is
sightly moved with proper proportion of pure
English, and about this time the sharer OF his
joys and sorrows makes her appearance in the
picturesque attire woman always assumes at
that hOur-corsets and hoop shirt predomina-
tng1and the spectacle her eyes fall upon is as
tonishing to the farthest extreme. The stove
appears in half-dress uniform of blacking and
ashes, and seems to be taking a lively
interest in the whole affair, while the man
OF the house, apparently riveted to the
spot, stands there in his shirt sleeves, staring
with all his might at a spot in the carpet, and
valniy endeayoring to comprehend how il all
happened, while patches of agreeable lustre
illuminate his face and shirt front; and stove
backing and raw spots equally divide posses
sion of his hands He has skinned every knuckle
on both hands, and broken the saucer by step
ping irto it; and got the ashes into the CARPET
and snapped the handle from the brush She
takes 1t all in at glance, and with true womanly
sympathy says, ''Well, hope you are satisfied
now" And the expr essiOn of his face attests
more eloIuently than words that he is.-Dan-
