GYMNASTICS FOR GIRLs.-The Berlin
Medical Society has issued circular
setting forth the deliberate conviction
of its members that systematic instruc-
ton in gymnastics for young girls of all
classes of society is desirable, nay, alb
solutely necessary, seven more so for
girls than for boys, since the physical
condition of the female sex is calculated
to effect in the highest degree the con-
stitutions of future generations.

DR.. r. V. PIERCE, Buffalo, N. Y:
Dear Sir-Allow me to give You a
brief history of the effect of your medi-
cine called "Golden Medical Discovery
in my case. l am now in my seventy
fourth year, and naturally of firm con-
stitution. Within the last few years,
from over-exercise, 1 have been afflicted
with a complication of diseases almost
incredible to relate. In the first place.
Catarrh, to degree that, TO me, il
seemed that my voice passed out at the
ears, to which was added its natural
ally-Bronchitis to which, at no great
length of time, were added Neuralgia
pains in the head and shoulders and
bloating of the lower limbs, the most
of which was superinduced by a torpid
state of the liver. had the advice of
several eminent physicians, and tried
almost every known remedy for such
complaints without relief. A rapid loss
of strength and waste of flesh, reminded
me that could not long Withstand the
combined force of disease which was
fast bearing me down. l gave up all
business, made my will, had my grave
stone placed in position and lettered,
except date of exit, and resigned myself
to my couch to await events. Not long
after this, 1 saw your advertisement,
procured your remedies-I am now on
the second half-dozen bottles of Golden
Medical Discovery-have a good appe-
tite, have gained fifteen pounds of flesh
no more talk out of my ears. no more
bloating of the limbs, can walk two or
three miles with ease, and feel that you
have given me lease of ten or fifteen
years-subject, however, to the ratitica-
ton of the Court above. That you may
live long to do good to suffering hu-
manity, is the sincere wish of
Your unknown friend,
LUTHER Cole.

ScALLoPED OYsTERs.-Crush and roll
several handfuls of Boston or other fria-
BILE crackers. Put layer in the bottom
of buttered pudding-dish. Wet this
with mixture of the oyster-liquor and
milk, slightly warmed. Next have a
layer of oysters. Sprinkle with salt and
pepper, and lay small bits OF butter
upon them, then another layer of mois-
tened crumbs, and SO on until the dish
is full. Let the top layer be of crumbs,
thicker than the rest, and beat an egg
into the milk yon pour over them.
Stick bits of butter thickly over it, cover
the dish, set it IN the oven bake half
an hour if the dish is large, remove
the cover, and brown by setting it upon
the upper grating of the oven, or by
holding hot shovel over it.

QUANTITY OF SALT IN THE OCEAN
Everybody knows that the waters OF
the Ocean are very salt to the taste, but
how many have thought of the immense
quantities of salts of different kinds
must be in the Atlantic and Pacific to
give flavor to such enormous bodies
of water? Scientific men have thought
about it and one of them Captain
Maury) has told us that if all the vari-
GUS salts of these oceans could be
separated from the water and spread
out equally over the northern half of
this continent, they would form a COW
ering one mile deep. So heavy would
be this mass of salt that all the me-
chanical inventions of man, aided by
all the steam and water in the world
could not move it SO much as one inch
in even centuries of time.

EGYPT has 113 navigable canals and
756 not navigable, all Of which are used

ACTION OF LEAD UPON WATER.-M.
Dumas describes former experiment
in which FIVE bottles containing leaden
shot were partially filed with the fol-
lowing waters respectively: Distilled
water, rain water, Seine water, Ourcq
water and well water. 1t was found
that the one containing distilled water
showed in very short time traces of
lead in solution, whilst the waters
charged more or less with calcareous
salts contained none. The rapidity
with which pure water acts upon lead
is surprising. and the effect produced
by traces of lime in preventing this
reaction is not less so. 1t is impossible
not to be reminded of Schlosing's
observations upon clay, which, in pure
water, remains indefinitely suspended,
but which is precipitated by the slight
est trace of lime salts. The author
thinks that pure water is an agent nor
yet perfectly known, and that its prop
critics differ from those of common water
more than is suspected. In the con-
versation which followed, M. Ellie de
Beaumont remarked that Schlosing's
observations explained fully the clear
and sparkling character of calcareous
waters.-Chem. NeUs.

PILES CAN BE CURED only by ANAKEsIs,
the greatest discovery of the age and
the sole, infallible remedy for the worst
cases of PILES. Thousands of sufferers
after trying in vain all manner of lotions,
ointments, and internal remedies, have
been instantly relieved and permanently
cured by ANAKEsIs. It is the happy
discovery of DIR. SILsBEE, regular sci
entiic physician, and Doctors of all
schools endorse and recommend it.

HEAT AND LIFE.-The English Jour
nal Of Science notes that the stokers of
steamers in hot countries, laborers in
steel works, iron mills, &C., can work
without visible detriment to health in
temperatures of from 100 to 2l2o. To
this it may be added that, in some parts
of California, Americans can farm in the
sun all day, with the thermometer
ranging over 110'. In fact, it is the
humidity of the atmosphere in heated
terms that works detriment to health
and life. In a permanently dry air
there are no sunstrokes or congestions
at high temperature.

HANGING BAskErs.-Many people who
are Indifferent to the attraction of flow
ering plants cannot help admiring to
tastefully arranged hanging basket, and
the demand for them has increased in
wonderful ratio the past few years.
They are attractive alike in winter or
summer Beautiful in winter when hung
in a window beneath which are flower
ing plants or in the wall pockets con-
tanning ivies and climbing vines which
can be trained around pictures, produc
ing q charming effect. Beautiful In
summer when from the piazza
ceiling or from the branches of trees on
the lawn. They are made of rustic and
wire work, earthen ware and iron, and
are not so expensive as is commonly
supposed-made as they now are in
great variety of size and style. The
rustic are the most expensive as well as
the most beautiful. Hanging pots of
earthen ware are now made in great
many forms, some of them being won
derfully accurate limitations Of sticks of
wood and rustic work in various styles,
but however lastly or expensive the
form, the effect is often greatly marred
by the manner in which they are filled.
One general plan should be followed,
whatever the size or expense of the
basket viz : A creeping vine for hanging
over and covering the ground, brill
liant leaved or upright Towering plant
of some kind for the centre. and an ivy
or some climbing vine to run up the
strings or handle. For example, place
a colens or foliage plant in the centre,
surrounding it with little creeping vines
as myrtle, inaria sedum, or if flowers
are wanted, put in such as mignionette,
sweet allyssun, cobelia, &C., and, for
climber, put smilax or English or Ger
man ivy. There. are very many other
varieties suitable which can be found IN
almost any plant catalogue. Verypretty
baskets are made by planting only one
variety, oxalis or lobelia, from so cents
to S5 anyone may procure hanging
basket or pot that will be source OF
enjoyment for a long time, as well as
rendering home cheerful, which is better
than money.

A SENTIMENT worthy of analysis is the
strange disgust felt by the poor for
certain articles of food. During the
famine in Ireland people would almost
starve rather than eat "Indian meal. Z"
Australian preserved meat is an abomi-
nation to the inmates of British poor
houses. The female paupers in the
Cardiff workhouse, to show their dis
like for this kind of food, lately rose up
in revolt and . sailed the house officials.

of a rer;.st consisting of Australian
mutton prepared as an Irish stew, de-
clared it was exceedingly palstable. I"

To PREVENT CLUB Foor GARBAGE
The Rural Ne,0 YorkOr says: "a Ger
man market gardener in Pennsylvania
the past season, in putting ont his cab
bage, followed the German custom of
pudding" the roots of part of his
plants in q thin mixture of COW manure
and water. Five rows thus treated
entirely escaped disease, growing pros
perously, while the remaining portion
of the crop, one thousand four hundred
plants, all died.

PROPORTION OF CREAM To MILK
The proportion of cream to milk yielded
by cows of various breeds used in the
dairy, was ascertained by experiment,
In England, some time since, to be as
follows: Brittany cows, 1927 to 22.00
per cent. of cream; Jerseys, 1866 to
1000 per cent; cross of Jersey and
Short-horn, 1875 to 1906 per cent. !;
Short-horn or Durham 1882 to IS. Sc
per cent; Devon, 14S6 to 1900 per
cent; and Ayrshire. AZ to 14S4 per
cent. The variations depended on the
feed, which for the lowest yield was
grass or hay only, and for the highest
was the most abundant food of the
richest character that could be pro-
cured. As a general thing, however,
cream is yielded in larger proportion in
our dairies than in those of England.
APPLEs.-It is stated that by care
full analysis it has been found that
apples contain larger amount of phos-
phorus, or brain food, than any other
fruit or vegetable, and on this account
they are very important to sedentary
men, who work their brain rather than
their muscles. They also contain the
acids which are needed every day, es-
pecially for sedentary men, the action
of whose liver is sluggish, to eliminate
effete matter, which, if retained in the
human system, produces inactiop of the
brain, and, indeed, of the whole system,
causing jaundice, sleepiness, scurvy and
troublesome diseases of the skin.

THE RESULT

If we have failed to thoroughly over
throw the power of the corrupt major
ity in this State, it has simply been be-
cause the light was not equal to the
darkness; because the heather out
numbered the converts, as they did in
the old days when the blessed light of
Christianity fought against the black
ness Of Odin and Thor. But the work
goes bravely on. The idols are over
thrown in the East; the temples of
Moloch are despoiled; the shrines of
Mammon are rooted up.
There are thousands so incapable Of
independent thought that they dare
not follow the whisperings of their own
consciences; but they look afar off to
see what their cousins and uncies think
IN the land Of their birth. To such
the results in the East will come like a
great voice of authority.
New England has spoken. she, as
Senator Thurman says, has not been
controlled by the Ku-klux; her voters
have not been inundated; she needs no
ghost come from the grave to testify to
her intelligent appreciation of the situa-
ton, or to her loyalty to the Union
And yet she is ready to trust the Oppo-
s:tion. She turns away with disgust
from the endless robberies and corrsp-
tons of the dominant party; she shrinks
from the imperialistic tendencies of her
leaders; she recoils with horror from
third term.
We cali upon the men who have tri.
umphed in this revolution to be wise
and just and honest. If they protect
the white men of the South from the
carpet Daggers, and the black men Of
the South from the kuklux; if they set
their faces like flint against all
robberics of the public treasury;
e they cut down expenditures and re.
duce taxation: if they, in short. do
their whole duty by the whole country;
the nation will sustain them almost
unanimously and free institutions will
he saved
We believe they will do their whole
duty. We believe the election last
week brought to the surface the hon
esty, the conservatism. and the real Re.
publicanism Of our country. We be.
lieve posterity will recognize the Sd Of
November, 1874. as mex. in Importance
to the +th of July, l71716, and the 4th Of
July. 1868.

THE NEXT SPEAKER.
The Mankato RerieaO SAYS:

Whether we have carried the Lower
House OF the Legislature or not, We second
the suggestion Of the Winona Herald Of
Hon N. H. Burchard, Of Winona, g ths
Opposition candidate for Speaker II elect
ed, he will prove an able and impartial pre-
siding officer. If not elecsed, his selection
as the representative man Of the Opposition
will prove . credit to the party.
As the Opposition and Independents
have majority in the next House, we
see no reason why they cannot agree
upon Mr.. Burchard, or some other
equally good man, for Speaker; and SO
control the organization Of that body in
the interests Of the people.
Men who have defeated Republican
candidates will scarcely want to crawl
back into the Republican ranks, to be
used and despised.
The "Independents" ofthe house will
probably hold the balance Of power.

THE RAILROADS.

Whatever else may be gained or lost,
we take it for granted that the coming
Legislature will be. anti-Railroad; not
in any unjust or proscriptive sense, but
in so far as that phrase indicates de-
termined purpose to subordinate those
great corporations to the control of the
law; and to furnish the producers Of
the country some protection from their
exactions.
We are inclined to think, upon ma
ture reflection, that Minnesota should,
to some extent, initiate the action of
Wisconsin, and establish two, three or
four classes, into which she shonld as
sign the several railroads of the State,
according to the cost and amount Of
business of each; and then fix marina
for each class, for the transportation of
wheat. oats, corn, -four, wood and lum-
Der. If these marina are fixed as low
as they should be, the roads would en-
rich the State and build up trade in
other branches which would soon COM
pensate them for any temporary losses
they might sustain. By permitting
them to retain their present rates on
all merchandise, except the productions
of the farm and forest, the reduction Of
rates would not fall with crushing
weight on the roads.
We speak only for ourselves, but we
are inclined to think, that if we can get
reduced rates on the transportation Of
our bulky productions. we will be will
ling to bear the present rates of charge
for travel for few years longer. In
most cases the farmer can avoid travel
ing, but he cannot avoid the onerous
tax levied on his wheat by excessive
charges for transportation.
In the interval which will elapse be-
tween this time and the assembling of
the Legislature, we would be glad to
have our friends express their views on
this subject. We would also be glad
to learn the status of members elect on
this question. The probabilities are
that they will be more earnestly on the
side of the people before they come to
St. Paul than they will be after they
have spent month at the Capitol. Let
US hear what their opinions are now
what promises they made to get elected,
