CURE FORLovR.-Not harbor " alter nor char
Goa fumes, nor Paris green, but something
which is more effectual in removing the dis
ease, and yet does not seriously impair the con-
stitution OF the patient. The remedy was dis
covered out IN Iowa. A youth In Davenport
offered himself TO young lady whom he had
long loved 20 desperation, ana upon being re-
tus rushed msdly from the hOuse and jumped
down we'll, falling astride of a cross beam
near tie bottom. The beam saved his life as the
wafer was ten feet deep below him. But instead
of deciding to ask her nineteen times more or
fastening away to marry, out OF spite, the per-
son popularity known as Another, he experienced
sudden revulsiOn OF feeling after he got
down there. Truth, who lives in that damp 10
Cality, suddenly Jedm-ed upon him-the truth
that he could live without the cruel sweetheart
and be remarked TO his mother, who was called
TO attend him, that he wished he might never
see the face of another girl so long as he lived.
RIA couple of deputy clerks in the Office of
the clerk of the county court OF Murray, Ky.,
while alone with a couple Of young ladies the
ether day, proposed to have a mock marriage,
one deputy performing the ceremony for the
other. Ii has since turned out that the first de-
pity had the power TO perform the marriage
ceremony, and the sequel Is that the other is
really married.

SALT IN SICKNRss.-Dr. Scudder remarks
81 am satisfied that 1 have seen patients die
from deprivation of common salt during a pro-
tracted illness. Ii Is a common impression that
the food for the sick should not be seasoned,
and, whatever slop may be given, IL is almost
innocent OF this essential OF life. In the milk
diet that recommend in sickness, common salt
rs used freely; the milk being boiled and given
hot. And II the patient cannot take the usual
quantity in his food, have IL given in his drink
This matter is so important that IL cannot be
repeated too often. or dwelt upon too long. The
most marked example of this want of common
salt have ever noticed has been in surgical
disease, especially in open wounds. Without a
supply OF salt the tongue would become broad ,
pallid, putty, with tenacious, pasty coat the
secretions arrested, the circulation feeble, the
effusiOn at the point OF injury serious, with an
unpleasant watery pus, which az last becomes q
mere sanies or ichor. A few days OF a free al
lowence OF salt would change all this, aud the
patient get along well.n
