It Is the only form Of instrument yet Invented
with which fluid medicine can be carried hi1h up
sal passages and the chambers or cavities com
municatins Herewith. in which sores and ulcers
frequently exist, and from which the catarrhal dis
charge generally proceeds. The want OF success
in treating Caiarrh heretofore has arisen largely
from the impOssibiliry o. applying remedies 10
these cavities and chambers by any Of the oTdi-
nary methods. This obstacle in the way OF ef-
fectng cures is entirely overcome by the invention
Of the Douche In using this instrument the Fluid

New METHOD OF MAKING BEEF TIA
Take thin rump steak of beef, lay it
upon a board, and with a case-knife
scrape it. In this way red pulp will
be obtained, which contains pretty much
every thing in the steak, except the f.
brous tissue. Mix this red pulp
thoroughly with three times its bulk of
cold water, stirring until the pulp is
completely diffused. Put the whole
upon a moderate fire and allow it to
come slowly to a boil, stirring all the
time to prevent the leaking" of the
pulp. In using this do not allow the
patient TO STRAIN it, but stir the set
things thoroughly into the fluid. One
to three fluid ounces of this may be
given at time.-Rurdl Ne,0 Yorker.

LITTLE THINGS TO RE,fEAIBER.-Some-
times it may be convenient to let water
stand in tub, pail or barrel, that is ex-
posed to intense cold weather, and there
is danger of the vessel freezing and
bursting. If stick be thurst down
into the the water it will prevent this,
and no danger may be apprehended.
If, in baking pies, little bit of paste
is left over, do not lay it aside to sour
or be forgotten, but make it into tarts in
your little patty tins. One of them
would make very happy the little, red
fingered. half-clad errand-boy who

We have been SO annoyed by the
shrinking of our white wollen hose, that
1 tried the experiment, this winter, of
boiling the yarn most thoroughly be-
fore knitting it. We have not had time
to fairly test the new experiment yet.
Don't use good table-knives to scrape
kettle, or pare potatoes, or for any
other than table service. Keep old
ones with faulty handles, or odd ones
that belong to no set, for such common
purposes. Never let nice ones be picked
up and used unfortunately.
l cannot too earnestly recommend
that womeu-not only heads of house
holds, but even school -girls-should
keep correct account of all money they
spend. Looking over my own account
lately, was surprised when it footed
up an outlay of seventy dollars since
the last of August. I read it aloud,

against their own wills.
1t is well in February to begin to eat
very freely of fruit and vegetables. A
strong meat diet with buckwheat cakes
and corn bread, and such hearty food,
all heatgiving, is very apt, if persisted
in, to make sores, and boils, and bilious
arrangement in March and April. By
due attention TO what is eaten the latter
part of winter, all this may be avoided
Persons of scrofulous habit especially
should be preparing for the invasion of
disease To such, canned fruits, toma-
toes, cranberries and lemons, in any
form in which the acid is preserved, will
be found invaluable. They should set
aside meat altogether, unless it be lean
boiled meat, slice or so at breakfast
or dinner. But if people persist in
using the same food, they must expect
to pay the penalty. 1t is wisdom, how
ever, to consult nature and abide by
her unalterable laws. Not always does
she punish at the time of the transgres-
sion, but the punishment will and does
come, sooner or later.-Arth,rs Maga-

The following cure for neuralgia is
given by the Newark Gazette, and is
well worth trying. The article reads /:
"a friend of ours, who suffered horri-
bly, from pains from neuralgia, hearing
of a noted physician in Germany, who
invariably cured the disease, crossed
the ocean and visited Germany for treat
ment. He was permanently cured after
sojourn, and the doctor freely gave
him the simple remedy used, which was
nothing but poultice and tea made from
our common and field thistle. The
leaves are macerated and used on the
parts afflicted as poultice, while small
quantity of the leaves are boiled down
to pint, and small wine glass of the
decoction drank before each meal. Our
friend says he has never known it to fail
of giving relief, while in almost every
case it has effected cure.

How JOIN BRoUGHAM CRIED QUARTER.
"A good story is told of John Broug-
ham, who was once at the first rehearsal
of a new piece, where the actors were
reading their parts from a somewhat
ill-written manuscript. John, when
his part came round, somewhat sur
prised his brother actors by shouting
at the wrongful heir" in the piece,
"And thou bad quarter -
"What's that?" interrupted the stage
manager.
$50 set down in my part" replied the
comedian, referring to his manuscript.
''No such thing-I never wrote that, "
said the irate author, who was present.
SIT makes arrant nonsense OF the speech.
Bad quarter, indeed"
'See for yourself" said the actor,
handing the manuscript to the author
"This, why" said the literary man,
adjusting his eyeglasses, 'this reads,
thou base counterfeit"
"Ah is that it ?" said the comedian,
with sly twinkle of the eye. "Wel,
the terms are synonymous. A bad
quarter is base counterfeit.

Low VS.. HIGH FRUIT TREEs.-An Hi
nois fruit-grower, who has l., 900 apple,
and from 1000 to 5000 pear trees, finds
that "those with low heads, of the same
varieties, show at least two-t thirds more
fruit, as large or larger, and as high
colored as those with high tops. To
test the matter he cut off in certain
rows all the limbs from four to six feet
from the ground, and in others he en-
couraged the limbs to start close to the
surface, and in the latter case neither
thinned nor pruned, except occasionally
to lop away too lusty shoot in order
to preserve a symmetrical appearance,
or evenly balanced head, and the above
is tine result.

A HINT TO HoRsEMEN.-Clacking and
over-reaching can be cured by making
the shoes of the forefeet heavy, and the
hind shoes light. The heft of the shoe,
when the foot is thrown forward, carries
the forefoot out of reach of the hind
foot, and in most cases prevents the
feet coming in contact.

How TO BUILD A HoUsE.-A writer
says: I'VE will suppose a frame en-
closen with clapboards or siding ready
for the mason. Have strips of an inch,
or inch and quarter wide, sawed from
any common boards and nailed in the
centre, up and down, of the studding,
upon which nail a course of lathing.
Let your mason apply scratch coat"
of strong coarse hair mortar from ceiling
to the floor, without a skip. When this
is done let him commence the lathing
upon the face of the studs in the usual
way for the regular side walls. 1t will
be perceived that this plan is upon the
principle of an ice closet, giving two air
chambers, cutting off all direct air cur
rents, constituting your rooms cooler
in the summer and warmer in the winter.
1t is cheaper than filling in with bricks
and very much better"

does not matter whether it be q recent
attack, or a lingering cough, the Dis
covery is in either case equally well
adapted for its relief and permanent
cure. In fact, it will cure a cough in
one-half the time necessary to cure it
with any other medicine. and it does it,
not by drying it up, but by removing
the cause, subduing the irritation, and
healing the affected parts. No time
should be lost in commencing the use
of a proper medicine for the relief of
a Cough, for unless this course is pur-
sued, serious and dangerous disease of
the lungs is liable to result.

have used your Golden Medical Dis

have tested its merits ia severe coughs,
both acute and chronic, in chronic dis
ease of the throat, severe cases of bron-
chitis, general arrangement of the sys-
tenn. .constipated condition of the bowels.
and wherever thorough alternative has
been indicated. In all cases I have
found it to act gently yet thoroughly
and effectually in removing the various
diseased conditions, and bringing about
healthy action throughout the system.

Humorous.

A FARMER in this county, says North
Carolina paper, has a mule so awfully
contrary that he can do nothing with it.
Put him in harness, and it is hard to
say which way he will travel. Put q
saddle on him, and he appears to doze !;
but try to mount him, and he will all
of sudden kick every way, straight
out, straddle bug, with all four legs at
once. As to eating, he will eat anything
from his feed trough up to wooden
saddle. The owner took a notion to
have him shod, but he kicked out the
blacksmith shop and returned home.
The owner tried to kill HIM some time
back, SO he tied his ears with trace
chain and rode him for six consecutive
days and nights, as hard as he could
under whip and spur. The fact is, he
nearly killed himself in the effort, and
had to be carried upstairs to bed, and
his firm belief was that the mule would
die that night, but, to his astonishment,
the next morning he found that the
mule had kicked to death Chester hog
weighing 800 pounds, bit piece out of
his horses shoulder, ate up saddle,
blanket and bride, tore down the fence
and was spurging about more deyilish
than ever, to find something else meaner
to do.
THE Rev. Horace Bushnell, of Cincin-
natti. although both blind and lame, is
known to be one of the best wits in the
city. Some two or three years ago he
was on a committee for the collection
of funds in aid of charitable institu-
tion in that place, and, among those
whom he induced to subscribe, was q
well-known merchant who had, by long
and persevering closeness, built up a
reputation for penuriousness second to
none in Cincinnati. Just before the
subscriptions were to be collected, Mr..
Bushnell took sick and was laid up for
some time. The first day that he was
able to be out he went to the merchants s
counting-room for the money. Just as
he entered, that parsonage came up to
him and, knowing what was coming,
endeavored to conceal his vexation at
the prospective depletion of his pocket
book by warm "Good morning, Mr..
Bushnell, good morning. 1 am very
happy to see you out" The clerical
wit leaned on his cane, and drawled out
in that deliberate tone, which gives
such an additional zest to humorous
reply: 81 have no doubt you are, sir,
but you will be much happier to see me
out when you know what have come
for"
