An 0utgrOwth of Other Disease!

frequently symptom of other diseased con-

A Gardeners Barometer.

The common camphor bottle makes a
very cloudy index of atmospheric weight
and weather changes On which the follow
ing is an improvement. Dissolve two
and One-half drachms camphor in eleven
fluid drachms of alcohol. Put thirty-eight
grains Of nitrate of potash (saltpetre). and
thirty-eight grains of muriate of ammo
mia (sal ammOniac), into nine fluid
drachmS of water; when all are perfectly
dissolved. mix the two solutions. Shake
them well in a twO-Ounce or four-ounce
white glass vial, cork very loosely, or, bet
ter, tie over the mouth piece of linen or
cotton cloth. and place the instrument in
a good light, out of the sunshine, where it
can be observed without handling.
When the weather is fine and clear, the
fluid is also; but on the least change, the
chemicals, which lie as sediment, rise in
beautiful frOnd-like crystals proportionate-
ly, and again duly subside. BY watching
these changes one soon becomes able to
predict the changes probable for a few
hours to come in any locality. This in
strument is also a pretty philosophical
toy, showing how sensitive some chemi-
cal solutions are TO atmospheric influences.

The Father of the English Premier.

Mr.. Disraeli, the new British Prime Min
lister, although well known for many
years as one of the most active, restless,
and industrious political leaders of the
age, has also been equally well known as
an author whose writings rank among the
most popular productions of the English
literati. This gifted man received the best
education that could be given him, which,
by his constant devotion to study and in
dustrious habits, has been principally the
means of his elevation to the high position
which he now occupies. But much of the
great literary ability which he has dis
played has been transmitted TO him from
ais father, Isaac Disraeli, who during a
long lifetime was most devoted lover of
books, and the author of number OF
works of great merit, which are still to be
found in all first-class libraries. Among
those which are best known, and show
great historical research. may be named
:" The Life and Reign Of Charles l., ;" The
Amenities of Literature" and 1.-The Curl
osities of Literature" The elder Disraeli
was, when boy, sent to Amsterdam, and

The Office of Food.

Farmers should bear in mind that the
first requirement of food is TO supply the
wear and tear of life. and to build up the
body of animals when they are growing.

them than other animals whose growth

Look to Your Cellars.

Knowing as | do, says a correspondent
of the Ohio Farmer, the danger families are
often in from mwhOlesOme cellars, have
a number of times before written word
of warning, and that las suggestion)
would now repeat. Any one who has not
given attention to the subject would be
surprised to know of the fearful results
that often come from ill-ventilated and inn
pure cellars. Typhoid fever, dysentery,
and other diseases have been traced to
them with absolute certainty. Scores of
families have been broken up by death
from this cause, and scores have been called
to suffer long, distressing and dangerous
SicknesseS because of an invisible bOisOn
that has been generated in their own cellar.
Any physician of experience will without
hesitation testify to the danger that turks
here. While | am writing, five in family
not far away are low with typhoid fever
from some local cause, which probably a
close attention on their part might have
kept away. A damp, wet cellar is always
an unhealthy one, especially if it has not
free ventilation and is not kept clean. In
such cellal nearly always vegetable matter
is decaying, and this is fruitful source of
disease.
Even a dry and well-ventilated cellar
spring opens. Alldecaying matter should
be removed, and some of this can always
be found. Attend to the work and do it
thoroughly, and then if sickness comes
upon yourself or your children, you will
not have bitter reflections because of your
carelessness. A matter so fruitful of evil,
and one that can be attended to in so short
a time, and with so little expense, should
not be neglected. Attend to it early, be-
fore the hurry of spring work; but the
better way is to be always attending to it
as there is need. a clean, sweet cellar is
not only healthy, but how much better it
is for the butter, the milk, and the meat,
and for everything kept in it.
This will also suggest the importance of
seeing to everything about the house that
is likely to produce disease. A few hours
work and a few dimes spent Tor disinfect-
ants are as nothing compared with the ben
