How TO KEEP HONEY CoMBs.-A
writer in the American Bee Journal
for several years has practiced the fol
lowing method of preserving old combs
from the dspredations of the moth
when it is not convenient to melt them
up at once: Lay them In the sun until
they become softened, then roll them
up and press them with the hand into
hard, round balls. In this condition
they may be kept without loss or dan
ger for years. A wholesale honey deal
er says honey will not candy if teas
poonful of cream tartar dissolved in
water be mixed with a gallon of honey
when scalding hot. Care must be taken
not to scorch the honey.
THE SToCKRLAw.-The Ohio stock
law is pretty rigid. making the owners
of stock liable for all damage done by
it. No person is required to fence
against stock, but it is a matter of the
utmost importance to the owners that
they keep their stock off other peoples
premises. Under the law trespassing
stock can be taken in execution to pay
costs and damages without reference to
homestead exemption. The law, how
ever, does not authorize persons to kill
or injure animals that trouble them.-
On the contrary, persons who will or
injure stock even when trespassing,
subject themselves to heavy penalties.
CHICLEN CHoLERA.-R. n. Knapp,
in the Atlanta Sun, says, 81 have found
mixture of two ounces each of red
pepper, alum, rosin, and sulphur to be
an infsllible remedy for this scourge.-
Last summer / lost more than fifty
common fowls from cholera, my buff
Cochins not being atall affected. When
glancing over the columns Of the Rural
New Yorker I chanced to see the above
mixture recommended, and tried it,
mixing one tablespoonful in three pints
of scalded corn meal, and though sew.
|eral fowls were in the last stages OF the
disease they recovered and II have not
lost a chicken since. In severe leases
would advise giving about tone-third OF
a teaspoonfnl In = meal pellet to each
fowl every day till well. Put small

INFLAMMATION OF THE JoINTs.-I
The joints of the horse are the seats of
two kinds of Inflammation; one the
resulto of constitutional disturbance, and
almost always OF a rheumatic charact-
er; the other, coming on gradually as
consequence of the batterisg of hard
work. By disease of the joints, we
mean such as occur in those called
''roundbone," ''stife-joint disease,n
"grogginsss," etc., and not in those
which are rather external to the joints
than occurring In them, such as SPAWN
and ringbOne. The kind of infiamma-
ton which occurs in the joints without
work is generally Of rheumatic char
acter. and comes ON after attaching
cold from standing in a draught, or
from similar cause.
Lameness Of the stifejoint Is very
rare. except as connected with sprain
or dislocatlon Of the patella, accidents
which sometimes occur. Whenever

An exchange says: '"The New Hamp-
shire Legislature has passed an act
obliging railway trains to stop 500 feet
from the intersection of railroads, at a
gate.n That is exceedingly lucid, and
reminds one of the bill lately intro
Iduced into the North Carolina Legis-
lature, that "when two trains upon dif-
ferent tracks approach junction, both
shall stop at a distance of 100 rods from
she intersection, and neither proceed
until the other has passed.

Kaue.t,o. or women.

Our modern life is in some respects
drying up, and our young men are toe
often mere sticks, without a living
idea of generous inspiration. They
sometimes do their utmost to spoil
young women. and young women re-
pay the folly with added grace and as.
siduity. The true womanhood, in its
quick PERCEPTION, ready wit, flashing
intuition, personal devotedness, and
high fidelity, must come to the rescue.
She must show us that under her inter
probation reason is not a cold and
heartless rationalism, bnt a genial,
loving wisdom, with ray as glowing
as it il luminous for our pathway and
our home. She can teach US that vir-
tue is not hard law, a dull fornalism,
harsh negation, but living inspira.
tion, drawing power from the eternal
love, and going forth in healthful free
dom to its conflict and to its peace. All
men may confess to share of weakness
for the ring of pretty girls who are
found almost everywhere trying to
make mediocrity charming, and to
keepup the old routine of empty chow
and petty clique. We understand in
some degree the power of that ring OF
graces when they pass into favord ese-
tablishments, the pet wives of hus-
bands whose principles and aspirations
are not always the better by this
charming petticoat government. But
among the girls and the matrons we
have seen enough of what a true wo-
man can be to make us wish and strive
that she may be more frequent fact
and power in these new times that
threaten dangers as well as promise
privilege, and call upon men and wo-
men to study together the science and
the art of the social order which they
are to suffer or to enjoy together. We
often call our time the age of mechan-
ism, but it ought to be the millennium
ofideality and faith; for within all the
Aacts of nature and history mysterious
forces move, and over all the supreme
love presides. If men are too often
forgetting the more humane and di-
vine view of the universe, and becom-
Ing as souiless as the machines by
which they make their money, women
do not tend that way, and even their
faults vindicate the emotions, and do
not wholly deny the ideal sphere. The
true culture under the supreme guild
ance will give woman due power for
mans sake as her own, and bring the
marvellous quickness of her perceptions,
the flash of her intuitions, and the
richness of her genius into the true
life. She bas more genius than man
In proportion to the measure of her
faculties, and Hartmann well says that
young men should associate with wo-
men for the best incentive, for you can
find men in their books, but women
must be seen In actual society to be ap-
preciated. They have certainly done
wonders in our age by their books,
aud the century that has given us Cori-
,nle, Consseio, and Romolc may, be-
fore it closes, show US type of society

POISONING OF THE ATaosPHERE BY
ARsENIcrN wALLrPAPERs.-The pois-
onous effects upon the air OF rooms OF
arsenical pigments on wallpaper have
been generaliy aseribed to the inhala-
ton Of the dust, which was found to
contain arsenic and copper, but cases OF
arsenical poisoning Of this kind have
occurred in which, on account of the
moisture still present In the wall and
the effectual fixing of the colors, this
explanation will not answer. Upon
these recent series Of experiments by
Fleek throws some light. Air in glass
receivers was subjected to the action of
Schweinforth green and arseLious acid
by simply placing these substances be-
meath some bodies in a moist condition
and by applying them as a coating to
others, with and without paper, potato
and wheat starch being employed as
pastes. After from eight days to three
weeks, in different cases, the presence
of arseniureted hydrogen In the air
was unmistakably revealed by tests,
and left no doubt that cases Of chronic
|arsenical poisoning must be attributed
not only to the mechanical mixture Of
arsenical compounds with the air Of
rooms i'm the form Of dust, but also to
the presence OF this gas, resulting from
the decomposition Of free arsenious
acid in Schweinfurth green. 1t was
also found that the development of the
gas is favored by moisture In the air
and the presence Of organic matter,
especially that in the paste. Mould ap-
Ipeared on the paper in some cases,
showing that arsenic is not preven-
tive of its formation, as often stated
