Preventing Flies from Annoying Horses.

According to Rochard, a French
veterinary surgeon, a simple method of
preventing flies from annoying horses
consists in painting the inside of the
ears, or any other part especially
troubled, with a few drops of empyreu-
matte oil of juniper. It is said that the
odor of this substance is uncomfortable
to flies, and that they viii keep at a dis
tance from the parts so anointed. If
this treatment should accomplish the
alleged result, it may, perhaps, be
equally applicable in repelling mos
quitoes from the faces and hands OF
tourists and spOrtsmen when passing
through woods or meadows.

VINEGAR BITrERs. great merit
of Vinegar Bitters has made them the
leading medicine Of the day, and re-
spectacle druggists everywhere write +:
They are the best and most popular
preparation IN the market" They
have stood the test of public opinion
and won confidence. They sell rapidly
because they cure. If you are sick you
want reliable medicine. Vinegar Bit
tiers commend themselves to the ailing
and afflicted, as they are deficient in
one thing alone, viz. the stimulant that
unduly excites the brain, and creates a
morbid thirst for spirits ! There is no
phase of indigestion, biliousness, ner-
vous disease, or physical debility, in
which they will not effect a cure. Iu-
valids who are wasting away from a
want of proper action in the liver,
stomach and bowels, viii find them a
constitutional specific, and a fountain
of vitality and vigor as refreshing and
celebrating as a cool, gushing spring
of water 10 the parched and fainting
traveller in the desert.

HARD on THE STUDENTS james 10
seph Han, sends the following amusing
joke. in which, It's quite probable, from
mis- very funny propensities, he played
the part OF " corpse, "
A party of students, not exceedingly
well acquainted with the medical proies.
sion, determined to procure a corpse, for
the purpose Of testing their anatomical
powers. They formed together with this
intention but one Of them being much
inclined TO joke, and fearing detection
from his pranks, they contrived that he
should know nothing OF the voyage.
However, he became aware Of all, and 81.
lently resolved to doctor them in his
own way. The dead body they managed
very easily TO obtain, aud each took a
turn at carrying it. After travelling a
considerable distance the subject was de.
posted in an old barn while the students
departed in search Of water to satisfy
their thirst
Our joker now appeared on the spot,
having without their knowledge accom-.
panied them through the whole journey,
and was greatly pleased with this beauti.
ful opportunity to revenge himself.
Quickly he drew the body from the sack,
(of course hiding it, and substituting
himself in its place, quietly awaiting the
coming Of his brother students. They
soon arrived, and one Of them shoulder
ed the body and resumed his journey
with the rest. He proceeded but a little
way when TURNING around he observed |:
"Boys, this fellow Is getting deuced
heavy, and I'm tired.
The supposed corpse assumed as
ghestly n voice as possible. and sqneez-
ing the poor victim with all his might,
replied:
"You ungodly graveyard digger, let
me down and I'll walk myself.
This scene was picturesque. That sack
was shaken off quicker than dog could
shake a rat, and the way those medicine
boys got to town $, fast was caution
