Common sense in Finance.

The following extract, taken from IN
article which comes from the able pen OF
DIR. Cyrus Elder, which we find in the cols
ums Of the Johnstown fPa.) Industrial Bull
letin, bears with it its own commentator
to men qcho think for themselves:
''It is confidently asserted by very high
authorities that more money would merely
make matters worse, and that no amount
of money would be enough to supply the
lack Of credit which prevails in season OF
panic. These theories may be true, but
we shall insist upon regarding such troubles
as those through which we are passing as
evidence of vices in legislation, and not as
wholesome experiences or blessings

refusal to be lanced and drenched would, in
some rural communities, have been re.
garded as flying in the face of Providence.
An attack of fever, or other formidable
| disease, was also reputed to be beneficial,
| if it did not prove fatal, because the victim
| was incidentally put through regular
course of medicine We hope it will not
be regarded as offensive If we assert that
there was about as much sense in these no.
lions as in some of the financial theories
which are advanced with the greatest con-
fidence.

How TO DESTROY INSECTS. The
Journal of Chemistry has the following
concerning the destruction of insects: Hot
alum water is recent suggestion as an
insecticide. 1t will alse destroy red and
black ants, cockroaches, spiders, chirtz-
bugs, and all the crawling pests which in
fest our residences. Take two pounds
OF alum and dissolve it in three or four
quarts of boiling water, let it stand on the
fire till the alum disappears, then apply
with brush, while nearly boiling hot, to
every joint and crevice in your closets,
bedsteads, pantry shelves, and the like.
Brush the crevices in the floor of the skirt
ing or mopboards, if you suspect that they
halbor vermin. Ii in embarrassing cell
ing plenty Of alum is added to the lime, it
will also serve to keep insects at distance.
Cockroaehes will fee the paint which has
been washed in cool alum water. Sugar
barrels and boxes can be freed from
ants by drawing wide chalk mark just
round the edge Of the top OF them. The
mark must be unbroken, or they will
creep over it, but a continuous chalk mark
half an inch in width will set their depreda-
lions at naught. Powdered alum or
borax will keep the chintzbug at a respec-
table distance, and travellers should always
carry package of it in their carpet-bags,
to scatter over and under their pillows, in
places where they have reason to suspect
the presence of such bedfellows.
