How TO swallow pill is thus stated
by a correspondent "Put the pills
under the tongue and behind the teeth,
and let the patient Immediately take a
large swallow of water and he will
neither feel the pill nor taste it. In
fact, he cannot tell where it has gone,
and have seen them look about the
floor to see if they had not dropped it. :"

warm weather or overkeeping, washing
it with ime-water will restore its sweet

it will produce the same effect.

HOUSE WINDows.-The more light
admitted to apartments the better for
those who occupy them. Light is as
necessary to sound health as it is to
vegetable life. Exclude it from plants,
and the consequences are disastrous.
They cannot be perfect without its
vivifying influence. 1t is fearful mis-
take to curtain and blind windows so
closely for fear of iniuring the furniture
by exposing to the suns rays; such
rooms positively gather elements in
darkness which engender disease. Let
in the light often, and fresh air, too, or
suffer the penalty of aches and pains,
and long doctors bills which might
have been avoided.

CoCoANUT CRIsPs.-To the oatmeal of
either of the above recipes, add half a
cup of sugar and one cup of dessicated
cocoanut, or one and half cups of
grated cocoanut. Scald as above, with
either water or cruel, place them in a
pan with a spoon, and bake in a
moderate oven until dry and crisp. 1t
will be necessary to be still more care
full for fear of burning them than if
there were less sugar and no cocoanut
When done, put them away dry and
serve as cake. They are more whole
some than almost any cake, and they
are much liked. They can be made
without the cocoanut, and they can be
favored with other favors. Here is
room for experiment, and good oatmeal

SUN RAYS FOR You've ASTRONOMERS.
- The appended extracts from the
address of learned scientist are made
for the information of young astrono-
mers.
Light which travels 200, 900 miles in
a single second of time takes eight
minutes to reach us from the sun.
In every second the sun gives out as
much heat as would be given out by
burning II, coo, eco, 000, 900, 900 tons of
coal.
II this earth were represented by a
globe one inch in diameter, the suns
globe would be represented by an orb
three yards. in diameter.
Every form of force upon the earth,
every action that We perform, all the
forms of force, we know of, even the
mere thought we think, may be said to
come from the sun.
When the spots on the sun are the
greatest, it is found that the magnetic
needle has the greatest sway, and when
the spots are fewest 1t has the least
sway.
Ii the sun were 4 mass of coal of the
same bulk, the coal, in the course of
500 years, would be entirely consumed,
and the sun would be a mere cinder.
In solar outbursts, or eruptions,
bright fragments are sometimes carried
10 height of 200, 600 miles-a propul-
sion of matter at the rate of 500 miles
per second.
The sun seems to us to be perfectly
still but even the hideous groaniDgs
of the earthquake is surpassed million
fold by the disturbance In every square
mile of the sun.
If gravity, by the force of which the
sun rules the earth, were to occupy the
same time in passing over the interval
between the sun and the earth that
light does the years would continually
grow longer.
4 bullet fred at the rate of 400 yards
per second, and maintaining it to the
end, would take thirteen years to get
to the sun and the sound of the explo-
sion would reach the sun half year
later.
If an object as large as the earth
were placed Immediately before the
sun and there appeared as a black disc
it would nevertheless require large
telescope to make it visible.
If there were a steel rod connecting
the earth with the sun and the pole of
the earth we're brought into communi-
cation with the sun 200 years would
elapse before the strain would reach
the earth.
ii this earth were to grow in density
until its mass we're equal to that of the
sun, then a half ounce weight would
weigh four and half tons. A man of
average weight would be drawn to the
earth at weight of 10000.
By calculation which can readily be
made it is found that only the 260, ,000,-
00Oth part. or less than that proportion,
of the suns heat is captured by the
earth, and all the planets together re-
ceive only one 227, 600, ,0G0th part of the
suns heat.

TEA Growing IN THE SoUTH.-The
tea tree of China. it is said, will once
more be cultivated in Georgia. 1t has
been grown by several persons in that
State, from the Piedmont region to the
seacoast. The shrub is hardy and
vigorous evergreen, and thrives as well
iii the Piedmont district as it does in
China or Japan. 1t grows from three
TO five feet hlgh-a neat, compact, lau-
rel-leaved shrub, with pretty white
flowers in spring, and is quite orna-
mental. 1t Is perfectly hardy, and will
stand any exposure in that climate, as
has been tested in Athens and many
other localities in Georgia. We are
told it would be an easy matter for any
family that has a home and a few feet
of ground to produce their own tea and
little to sell. It's general introduction
for home use would most likely lead to
its production for market. There
would be many things for the people to
learn before they are able to manufac-
ture the article as We get it from China /;
but, it is said, a very good tea, and free
from adulteration, can be made by
simply picking and drying the leaves in
the same manner that sage leaves are
cured. 1t is declared by those who
have Investigated the subject that the
difficulty in the way of the culture of
tea successfully as an article of COM
merce in the Southern States is the
want OF experience, but chiefly of cheap
labor.

| BEET-ROoT MoLAssEs. The French
| depend chiefly for their sugar on the
beet-root. In manufacturing the pro-
duct, there has hitherto been a large
residuum, in the form of molasses,
which could not be recovered, and it
was so nauseous, in consequence of its
vile smell, as to be useless. NJ. Dubrar-
FAINT has lately discovered process by
which this molasses may be made to
yield up all its saccharine matter. By
adding hydrate of baryta to the molas-
ses, combination is formed between
it and the sweet principle, and an inso-
luble substance, called saccharate or
sucrate of baryta is produced. This is
C eansed of all extraneous matters, and
is left perfectly colorless. Upon then
being treated with carbonic acid the
baryta leaves the sugar entirely free.
This is now subjected to clariication,
whereby it becomes perfectly white,
extremely sweet, and entirely free from
baryta. By this process there is a re-
covery of from 35 to 45 per cent of pure
sugar from the originally molasses.

results, sufficient to warrant the con-
struction of two small vessels, one made
of ordinary timber and the other made
of the same material treated with the

be filled with combustibles and fired
simultaneously, thus submitting the
efficacy of the protective substance to a
fiual and crucial test.

TIDAL WAvEs.-The following inter-
esting information relative to tidal
waves is given by Professor Van der
Weyde. Tidal waves are the only
manifestation of the attraction of sun
and moon on the surface of the earth.
II the earth were entirely surrounded
by the ocean the solar tidal wave would
travel round the whole earth in twenty
four hours, which is a velocity of 900
miles per hour. The lunar wave would
travel round the earth in twenty-five
hours, at a velocity of 500 miles per
hour. As, however, the continents are
everywhere interposed except round the
South Pole, 1t is only there that this
wave motion takes place, and from this
region 1t is propagated northward into
the Indian Ocean and in the Atlantic,
where 1t attains its greatest magnitude.
1t propagates from Van Diemen's Land
in twelve hours to the coast of Hin
dostan and in another twelve hours
from the Cape of Good Hope to Senegal.
Twelve hours later it has reached the
coast Of Great Britain, and, turning
round Scotland, reaches Norway and
Denmark, in an opposite direction
namely from west to east.
Its velocity Of propagation depends
on the depth of the ocean. It is only
when the depth exceeds, 6,0O0 fathoms
that the velocity is as great as the revo-
luton of the earth. At depth of 600
fathoms it travels with the velocity of
80 miles an hour, and when the depth
is 100 fathoms the velocity is 100 miles.
At 20 fathoms it is So miles, 10 fathoms
p miles, and fathom miles. This
law, which was discovered by Russell,
is go reliable that it has been possible
to determine the depth of the ocean by
the velocity Of the tidal wave.

POISONED MILK.-Much of the sick
ness and mortality among infants may
be attributed to impure milk. The
danger attending the use of milk taken
from cows while the animals are suffer
ing from nervous prostration or excite
ment was forcibly illustrated recently
in two cases cited by an eminent ply
sician. He says that a gentleman
bought young COW that he might get
pure milk for his child, but that the
process of milking was, from the ig-
norance of the mixers, attended with
much excitement and brutality. The
child having been fed on the milk was
seized with brain fever and never en-
tirely recovered. In the other case milk
was supplied to four families by a
brutal, drunken dairyman, and those
who used the most milk suffered during
physical and mental health, "due, with
out doubt, to the changed and poison
Gus condition of the milk from excite
ment." DR.. Hale, in discussing the
cases, expressed the opinion that it
would be better to feed a child on the
milk from a dairy of many cows than
on the milk of one COW. 1t has been
pretty clearly demonstrated that milk
poisoning may result from impurities
in the water which the cows habitually
drink, and this fact, together with the
probable poisoning resulting from ply
sical ill treatment of the animal, gives
COWS a terrible revenge for neglect and
abuse. But unfortunately vengeance
in such cases falls upon the innocent
and guilty alike.
For THE RAINY DAY.-In this coun-
try there are tens of thousands of per-
sons who live from hand to mouth ;
married men, too, with families liable
to be reduced, not merely TO discom-
fort, but to deep distress, were they to
be thrown out of their avocations for
even q month. Yet so reckless are these
men as to their future, so selfish, so
careless of their responsibilities as
fathers and husbands, that one may see
them every day wasting what ought to
be deposited in a savings bank. When
these men die their wives and children
become in many cases, dependent upon
their relations, who have the burden of
their support until such times as the
sons, after the merest smattering of
education, can earn enough to keep
themselves. There are thousands of
people in this country to-day who are
thus dragging out existence on a
pittance from friends, and it is probable
that the recent rise in the prices of ne
cessaries has greatly increased their
number. and placed many of them in a
worse position than ever, inasmuch as
many of those who have had had such
pensioners will no longer be able to aid
them.
