Coffee and Milk.

Milk taken alone is acknowl.
edged to be one of the most val
liable ailments known, suitable to
all ages and constitutions, and
eminently dipestible except in GER
tian mo, bid cases. Coffee, on the
other hand, is in itself an excel
lent tonic and stimulant, which
favors digestion after meals. But
when these two beverages are
mixed together, as is universally
the case at breakfast on the Con-
inent, and pretty frequently so
in England, a chemical change
takes place, producing new a
gent that is utterly indigestible,
and therefore absolutely incapable
of assimilation when the mixture
is ffected in proper proportions.
Thus, when q customer enters a
coffee house, calls for his cafe au
lait, aud tells tn waiter how
much milk he wants in it, be sim.
ply is deciding how much Of his
money he chooses to waste on a
useless compound, and how little
nourishmeDt he is resolved to take.
To understand this, let us consid
er that the skin of animals may
be boiled down SO as to become an
eatable substance; but that the
same skins into an imputrescible
article which will defy all the
power Of the gastric juice 10 ex-
tract any nutritive matter there
from. Now, all proteine sub
stances, brought into contact with
the tannin, will combine with
the tannin, ard resist digestion as
as we'll as putrefaction. The in,
fusion of coffee intended for iudi-
gestion is extremely rich in tam
min: consequently, when brought
into contact with the albumen and
casein contained in milk, it will
Instantly transform these ingredi-
ents into an insoluble leather; the
only difference being, that this
coriaceous substance will be III
the shape of an impalpabIe power
instead of forming "A continuous
sheet, This inert precipitate will
remain In the stomach until car
ried off by other food, prod ucing
no other effect save that of i'm
peding the full action of the gas
trio juice"

Windows in HorSe-Sta-
nIaS.

A German paper states some
curious facts relating to the po-
sition of windows in holsestables,
and their | over to affect the eyes
Of horses. In one instance the
horses of farmer-fihe animals,
celebrated for their excellent c. n
sIition-were kept III a stable
aigi ted only by small window
at one side. When light was
needed for work, the door was
temporarily left open; the result
was that nearly all these animals
had eyes of unequal strength,
and in time a number of them be-
came blind on the side toward the
window. Strong light directed in
the horses face has been found to
weaken the sight. The worst
position of all for a stable wiz
dow is In front OF the horses and
much higher than their heads.
An officer hal fought perfectly
sound mare from a gentleman
whose stable was lighted by win
dows at the rear of the stalls.
The animal was sound and per-
fectlY satisfactory. After three
months she became suddenly
"ground shy;" Oh examining her
eyes they were found directed up
ward, and this was explained by
the fact that the windows of the
officers stable were situated above
the head of the stalls, the eyes
being generally drawn in that d.
rection. She was removed to All
other stall, where the light was
admitted from all sides, and in
three months time the difficulty
had disappeared.

Glue as a Cure for Cuts.

A correspondent Of the Sclen-
tific American writes as follows:
-"For the last twelve or four
teen years | have been employed
in a shop where there are
over three hundred men at work,
and as is the case NALL shops
of this kind, hardly a day pass
es with without one or more Of
us cut or bruise our limbs.
At first there were but few
who found their way to my de-
partment to have their wounds
bound up; but after Il while it
became generally known that
rag glued on a flesh wound was
not only speedy curative, but
an effectual protection against
further injury. | was soon OBJ
ligcd TO keep a supply of rags
on hand, to De ready for any e.
mergency. l will here cite one
among many Of the cases cured
with glue: A man was running
a boring machine with an inch
and a quarter anger attached.
By some means the sleeve of
his shirt was brought in contact
with the bit, tearing the flesh a.
long the muscles in a frightful
manner. He was conducted to
my department (the pattern
shop) and I washed it in warm
water and glued around tia cloth
which, when dry, shrunk into a
rounded shape, holding the
wound tight and firm. Once or
twice a week, for four or five
weeks, | dressed the wound "a
fresh, and it was well. The
man never lost an hour in con-
sequence. The truth Of this
statement hundreds can testify
to- l use, of course, the best
quality of glue.

Keeping Leather Harness
Pliable.

Tt is we'll known that leather
articles, kept in stables, soon be-
come brittle in consequence of
ammoniacal exhalations, which
affect both harness hanging in
such localities and the shoes of
those who freqaent them, The
usual applications of grease are
not always sufficient to meet this
difficulty; hut it is said that by
adding to them small quantity
OF glycerine the leather will be
kept continually in soft and phi.
able condition.

Birthstone for Bedbugs.

Probably the best method
that can be adopted to free a.
partments from inva sions of bed
bugs is to fumigate them with
birthstone. Houses standinglong
empty, which have swarmed
with them, have by this means
been effectually freed from
them. Place in the centre of
the room a dish containing "a
bout 4 ounces of birthstone; re-
moving from the room metallic
services as might be affected
with the fumes; close every APP
erture even the key hole and
light the birthstone. After
four or five hours, enter the
room and open the windows for
a thorough airing.

In cauterizing wounds by hot
irons (the most effective means),
it is essential that the iron
should be intensely hot. If a
red hot iron is used, great pain
ensues, and the cautery is i'm
perfect. To obtain true caute-
ry, the iron should be raised TO
a white heat. 1t then instantly
destroys the part and the opera
ton is painless. tits bestto use
several irons alternately, keep
ing a white heat until the object
is effected.
