Flowers in Winter.

The taste for flowers in winter is rapid
ly increasing with the advent of hot-air
furnaces and base-burners, which keep
the fire burning for months. 1t is COM
mon belief that flowers cannot be made
to flourish in furnace-heated rooms. Ex-
perience has proved that this is an error,
at least when the furnace air-chamber is
supplied with water for evaporating, and
no others are fit to use. AS private con-
servatories are generally conducted, they
are great expense and a vexation to the
heads of families. They are generally
placed at some little distance from the
house, all their sides exposed to the
weather, and consequently the consump-
tion of coal is great, and then one or more
functionaries are considered necessary
for taking care of them. Managed in
this way, they can never become a COM
mon luxury. A well-built room, twelve
feet by twelve, on the south side of the
dwelling house, can be warmed in win
ter, by single register from the furnace,
to 70o Fair. in the daytime, and 4O0 or
500 at night, and this will suffice for
roses, geraniums, heliotropes, ivies, Pc
tunias, mignonette, pansies, jasmine
(grandifora) callas, the daphne odora,
fuchias, salvias, gloxinias, hyacinths, and
many others. Caladiums and begonias
require nlgnI temperature from 90 TO
659. The room should have half the
roof, and all the south end, covered with
double sashes, and the tables for flower
pots should have border three or four
inches high to hold moss for the pots to
stand in. This moss holds considerable
water, and it's evaporation keeps the at
mosphere sufficiently moist. The floor
should be of hard pine, and oiled with
coal-oil once a month. After each
days sprinkling, the floor is easily wiped
dry in minute or so; besides, the tables
may be edged with half width of oiled
cloth stair covering; and this, held up
while sprinkling, will drain all the water
back into the moss. Such conservatory
can be easily taken care of by one young
lady, and it will give more delight and
healthy occupation than all the crotchet-
ing and embroidered pen-wiper making
in a whole volume of fashion magazines.
When there is repotting to be done, a
newspaper spread on the floor will pre-
serve it from the soil. Where ladies
manage Conservatives, they keep them
clean and inviting, and there is sure to be

distinguished nephew came to deliver the
address at her county fair, and, to enable
the boys and all farm hands to listen to
his agricultural learning, went into the
corn-field, hung his coat to crab-apple
tree, and stripped husks so vigorously
that the job was worked off in good time
for all to partake of his pastoral succu-
lence.
In showcase in one of the west-side
avenues in New York is to be seen the
following announcement, affixed to what
is commonly called "switch" by artists
who educate the outside of ladies' heads:
This solid mass of real hair, weighing
one pound, and fifty two inches long, was
cut from the head of a young lady six
teen years old. Price $125." The ap-
pendage referred to is black, and of the
texture of horses tail.
AN eminent Scotch divine happened to
dine with the learned lawyers of the
Edinburg bar. He appropriated to him
self large dish of crosses, upon which
he fed voraciously. Erskine, wishing to ad-
monish him for his discourtesy, remarked,
doctor, you remind me of the great
Nebuchadnezzar in his degradation. !"
just as the last conclusion was calling
forth a lively litter, the reverend vege-
table eater turned the laugh with the
quick retort: cay, do remind We of
NebuchadneZzar? Doubtless because
am eating among the brutes."

EPIZOOTY.

impart to you information that will be Of value

The disease here assumed many forms, and to its
treatment nearly all doctors differed but our best

through fourteen horses all were sick, but hardly

True Comfort.

There are very few men who have
proper idea of true comfort. 1t is too often
confounded with the mere delights of the
flesh. Some mistakenly consider easi-
ness to be comfort. Nothing could be
further from the fact. 1t is impossible to
be truly comfortable without occupation,
both for mind and body. We recollect
hearing of a man whose highest idea of
comfort was to go to sleep and dream of
swallowing gin-cocktails that were a
month long. This, however, is mere
sensuality. There is a man in Terre Haute
who seems to have the proper idea of
comfort. He lies on the grass in the rear
of his house, under the shade of fine
elm tree, and entertains his wife by read
ing the newspaper aloud to her while she
saws logs and chops them up into fire
wood to cook the dinner. There is no
time wasted here. The mind is exercised
and information is gained, while the wife
is at the'same time kept thoroughly posted
on current events. That man knows
how to enjoy himself, and is not selfish
enough to keep all his enjoyment to him.

IT has been decided in England that a
bankrupt may not refuse to answer ques-
tions which are put to him touching his
estates and effects, even when such ques-
tions tend to criminate him. Such a rule
might possibly be initiated to good ad-
vantage everywhere, though it has been
the custom to treat bankrupts in this
country with the same immunity in this
regard as if they were arraigned as Grim
inals. But the English courts seem to
have gone too far in the other direction,
as it has been recently held that such an
examination may be introduced as evil
dence in any criminal suit that may fol-
low; and man has been actually con-
victed in criminal prosecution by his
own testimony given previously in bank
rupt proceedings.

The middle classes spend their income
in keeping up false appearances. They,
too, must wear dove-colored pantaloons
and shiny boots. They must wear
diamond studs and seal rings, and carry
young ladies TO the opera, in hired car
riages, at the rate of three hours use for
three days wages. They must take
turn now and then at billiards, stand

CoNsUMPTIoN.-For the cure of this dis
tressipg disease there has been no medicine
yet discovered that can show more evidence
of real merit than ALIENS LUNG BALsAM.
This unequaled expectorant, for curing Con-
sumption and all diseases leading to it, such
as affections of the Throat, Lungs, and all
diseases of the Pulmonary Organs, is intro
duced to the suffering public, after its merits
for the positive cure of such diseases have
been thoroughly tested by the medical fac
ulty. The Balsam is, consequently, recon-
mended by physicians who have become ac-
quainted with its great success.

CRIMINAL SECRECY.-The martinets of
the medical profession insist that it is be-
meath the dignity of a regular physician
to advertise. If member of the faculty
should discover an absolute remedy for
any disease it would be breach of pro-
fessional decorum to offer the specific for
sale through the Journals of the day.
Scorning such prejudices one of our lead
ing practitioners is now making known
to the public through the columns of over
three thousand newspapers, one of the
most comprehensive remedies for disease
that has ever assuaged the sufferings of
humanity. DIR. WALKERS CALIFORNIA
VINEGAR BITTERs, although comparative
" new medicine, has already attracted
the attention of millions in both hemi-
spheres. 1t has been advertised through
all the channels accessible to advertising
enterprise, and the result has been the
preservation of thousands of lives, and
the prevention of an untold amount of
physical torture. DR.. Walker thinks that
the greatest good of the greatest num-
Der" is the true object of medical science,
and hence he steps boldly out of the con-
tracted circle of professional exclusive
ness, and places his Great Restorative
within the reach of all. Its beneficial ef-
feet in cases of chronic dyspepsia, bilious
ness, kidney disease, gout, diseases of
throat and lungs, rheumatism, nervous
complaints, and all disorders of the secre-
tive and excretive organs, is beyond all
