Artificial ReSDiratiOn.

The new method of artificial respira-
ton, brought forward as a substitute
for DR.. Marshall Halls, is warmly com
mended by some of the foreign medi-
cal journals. According to this system
the patient is laid on the ground upon
his back, his arms fully extended back
ward and outward, firm roll of cloth
ing being placed beneath the false ribs,
so as to throw their anterior margin
prominently forward. The tongue be-
ing held forward by an assistant, the
operator facing the patient, knees
astride his abdomen, and places both
hands so that the thumbs rest upon the
anterior margin of the false ribs, the
four fingers fallying naturally into the
four corresponding intecostal spaces on
each side. The elbows of the operator
being then planted against his sides, he
has but to throw himself forward,
using his knees as a pivot, and the en-
tire weight of his trunk is brought to
bear upon the patients false ribs. If,
at the same time, the fingers of the
operator grasp and squeeze the false
ribs toward each other, these combined
actions crowd the false ribs upward and
Inward, producing Ine greatest possible
motion of the diaphragm and displace-
ment of the contents of the pulmonary
air-cells. The operator then suddenly
lets 60, and returns to the erect posi-
ton on his knees, when both the thrush
of air and the natural elasticity OF the
ribs at tins part cause instant return tC
their normal position. This repeated
with proper rhythm and frequency, c on
stitutes the entire process.

SaltinU.Rutter

one OF the incest points in the manu-
facture OF butter consists in so proper
t1onlng the quantity of salt that there shall
be enough to properly flavor the
without giving it a distinct salt taste.
inns again must be proportional some
what to the taste Of the individual buy
ers, the more delicate palate requiring
tar less salt than the ordinary one.
Indeed, there is no doubt that the i'm
mense amount of indifferent butter which
is yearly sent to our great markets. is
salted to such degree merely TO hide
rancldlty or impure OdOrs. The COM
pound is often gritty with excess. This
has gone far to vitiate the taste of the
masses, so that many people do not like
butter unless it is sailed excessively.
IA England, this highly-seasoned but
teris very properly named "salt butter"
to distinguish it from the better articles
for sale IN the markets of that nation.
While it is true that the taste of indi-
vlduals varies exceedingly in the guam
tlty of salt IN butter, some even prefer
ring it entirely fresh, the average and
normal taste prefers just so much saline
matter that, the butter being worked
until dry, there will be no mdissolved
salt remaining. We have heretofore
stated that salt is no more necessary TO
the preservation Of lard or tallow. If
the water and matters containing nitro
gen are expelled, it will keep as perfect.
~ as tallOw or other pure fat. Never
theless this is difficult to do, except by
melting and evaporating the water, and
then the butter Is simply oil and con
tains none of the essentials of butter
but oil.
If an even tablespoonful of salt be
added to each quart of the cream when
it is skinned and stirred about, it is
thought to aid in breaking down the
skin which envelopes each globule of
butter; 1t probably assists in causing an
easier separation, and the butter is
churned much more easily, the other
conditions being proper. This does not
affect the sadness of the butter, for the
quantity Of salt Is 50 slight that the ac-
tual butter globules are not affected,
but the salt is taken up by the water
contained Ill the cream; for the oil, the
caseine, the sugar, and other solid sub
stances of the milk being taken away,
the rest Of what was originally milk Will
be simply water, nothing more
A very good preparation for season
ing butter, and one which we have found
satisfactory, is to add to four pounds
OF the best dairy salt, one ounce of pure
white sugar, and one ounce of saltpetre;
blend all thoroughly together; one
ounce Of this mixture will be sufficient
for each pound of butter. Thus season
ed, and properly manipulated worked
and packed, and kept in a cool uniform
temperature, the article will keep a
year. 1t will be of a marrowy consist
ence, and n nutty flavor, will never get
brittle or taste unduly of ,alt. If, how
ever, the butter is to be eaten immedi-
ately, the saltpetre should be omitted,
since unless it stands four or five weeks
before it is used, the salt will not be
entirely blended with the butter, and
the GOODNESS of the nitre Will be per
ceived. 1t will entirely disapp AZ with
age.

The following method of preserving
wooden labels that are to be used on
trees or IN exposed places, is recon-
mcnded III German paper: Thorough

solution of copper COR suIphate Of iron),
then lay them, after they are dry, in

bells thus treated were shown which had

Beck coping for Women.

One of the most profitable as well as
interesting kinds of business for WON
an is the care of bees. In recent ag-
ricultural report it is stated that one
lady bought four hives for so, and IN
five years she was offered 81, 800 for her
stock, and refused it as not enough. In
addition to this increase of her capital,
III one of these five years she sold TWEEN
ty-one hives and 43O pounds of honey.
1t is also stated that in five years one
man, from six colonies of bees to start
with, cleared 5000 pounds of honey and
fifty four colonies. When properly in
structed almostany woman III the city, as
easily as IN the country, can manage bees
and make more profit than in any other
method demanding SO little time and

Superiority Of French Fowls as Layers.


An impression prevails in some quar-
ters that by dipping a hen in pail Of
water and then chasing her around the
poultry-yard with astick, she Will be in
duced, on emergencies, to lay two
eggs il day. Consul Hotham, on the
other hand, in his commercial report on
Calais for last year, lately printed, cx-
presses his opinion that the whole secret
of the libcrality of egg-laying, displayed
by French hens, lies in the quality of
the soil in those districts in which hens
arc renowned for their laying qualities
Attempts have, he says, been not I'M
frequently made to introduce French
poultry into England under the impress

concerned. The French hen, however,
removed from her native land, does not,
ms a rule behave herself with that pro-
dtrctive alacrity which distinguishes her
III many, though not all, parts of
France. This Is accounted for 10y the
fact that in the neighborhood of Calais,
as well rs near Boulogne, there exists q
marked quantity of slick i'll the soil,
highly favorable for egg-laying pur-
poses, and when the fowls are removed
from this particular soil there is Il mark
ed diminution IN their laying propen-
sites. At Amiens, again, this same
quality of soils found, and the poultry
from that district are remarkable for
their laying qualities; they are, indeed,
the most celebrated layers in france.

Died Suddenly CT Heart Disease.

How common is the announcement.
Thousands are suddenly swept into eternity
by this fatal malady This disease generally
has its origin in impure blood filled with irri-
tating, poisonous materials, which, circulating
through the heart irritate its delicate tissues.
Though the irritation may at first be only
slight, producing a little palpitation, or irregu-
lar action, or dull, heavy or sharp darling
pains yet by and by the disease becomes firm
ly seated, and Inflammation, or hypertrophy,
or thickening of the lining membrane or of
the valves, is produced. How wise to give
early attention to case of this kind. Unnat-
ural throbbing pain in the region of the
heart should admonish one that all is not
right, and if you would preserve it from fur
ther disease you must help it to beat rightly
by the use of such a remedy as will remove
the cause of the trouble. Use DIR. Pierce's
Golden Medical Discovery before the disease
has become too seated, and it will. by its great
blood purifying ard wonderful regulating
properties, effect perfect cure. 1t con-
tains medicinal properties which act specific
ally upon the tissues of the heart bringing
about healthy action. Sold by all tirst-class
