How Drinking Causes
ApopleXY.

It is the essential nature Of all
wines and spirits to send an in
creased amount of blood to the
brain. The first effect of taking a
glass of wine or stronger form Of
alcohol, is to send the blood there
faster than common, hence the
circulation that gives the red face,
1t increases the activity of the
brain, and it works faster, aud SC
does the tongue. But suppose a
man keeps on drinking, the blood
is sent to the brain so fast in such
large quantities, that in order tc
make room for it the arteries have
TO enlarge themselves; they in
crease in size, and in doing so they
press against the more yielding and
faccid veins which carry the blood
out of the brain and thus diminish
their size, their pores, the result
be ng that the blood is not only
carried to the arteries of the brain
faster than is natural or healthful,
but it is prevented from leaving ii
as fast as usual; hence double set
of causes of death are in operation.
A man may drink enough brandy
or other spirits in a few hours, or
in a few minutes, to bring on IA
tai attack of apopleXy.

Cheap Cement Of Brick
Dust.

+. B. Miles informs the Frank
lin Institute Journal that Spanish
engineers successfully use ordinary
brick dust, made of hard burned
finely pulverized bricks, and mixed
with common lime and sand, as g
substitute for hydraulic cement
The proportions used in general
practice are one of brick dust, one
of lime and two of sand, mixed
dry and tempered with water il
the usual way. Mr.. Miles has
tested the remembering six years
experience, and found it superior
TO the best Rosendale. DR.. Wahl
in a note to the above commuuiea-
ton, quotes the opinion of Mr.
Trautwine that the addition of
even as little as One-tenth as much
brick dust as sand to our ordinary
nortars would prevent dislntegra
ton so generally visible in the
nortars used in masonry. ~

The Dutchman's Remedy.

A Dutehman In Iowa, having
frequent occasion to employ
physician, the head of the family
became quite familiar with the
form of writing prescriptions.
The doctor was one of those mix
lures of farmer, stock raiser, and
physician. not uncommon in the
country; bat exercised but very
little care in the management OF
cattle, which tod wonderfully
against his pecuniary interests,
while the Dutchnlans herd being
well fed and housed, was in very
fine condition. The doctor was
not slow in observing the differ
Ience, and suggested to the farmer
that he thought something vas
The mater with his cattle. and
requested lin to ride over and
tell him what to do for them
The farmer very cheerlully
promised to come at a given time,
and when that time arrived he
was promptly on hama ltwo hap
pened that the doctor had been
called away. The Dutchman,
however, examined the stock care.
fully, and then looked in all direc-
tons for a suitable shelter and
food without finding either. De
ducing the conclusion that hunger
and cold, with lack of care, were
the only diseases with which the
cattle were suffering, he entered
the office of the doctor aud left
the following prescription:
"R--Good Shelterum q s,
Corn mealum q s,
Pure waterum q s.
Apply corn mealum III form

The prescription worked won

next. We think that this plain statement of
facts should satisfy all concerned that while it
is to be regretted that delays as to the trans
portation of freight have occurred, it has been
unavoidable, and not the result Of want of en-
ergy and industry on the part of the officers of
the various railroads, and at least not of this
one. There is no merchant on the line Of the
Greenville Railroad who has been engaged in
business upon it for any considerable length of
time who is not cogrizant of the great and un-
expected increase of the business over it, and
if he has given himself the trouble to look in
to it, of the truth of all herein stated as regards
this road.
Yours, very respectfully,
THOMAS DoDAMEAD,
