Removing Stains.

If YOU have been picking or handling
any acid fruit, and have stained your
hands, wash them in clear water, wipe
them lightly, and while they are yet
moist strike a match and shut your hands
around it SO as to catch the smoke, and
the stains will disappear. If you have
stained your muslin or bingham dress,
or your white pants, with berries, before
wetting with anything else pour boiling
water through the stains and they will
disappear. Before fruit juice dries it
can often be removed by cold water,
using a sponge and towel if necessary
Rubbing the fingers with the inside of
the parings of apples will remove most
of the stains caused by pairing.
For removing rust stains from fabrics,
moisten the spot with Il solution of
Epson salts in Il few drops of hot water;
and after a few minutes rub it in well.
Next fill a tin vessel with boiling water
and set it ON the stained place for a few
minutes, and afterward wash out in soft
water. If the spot be old, and not easily
removed, the operation must be re-
peated. 1t is advisable to have articles
thus treated washed at once. Another
way: Wet the spots with lemon juice,
cover with common table salt, and apply
a hot lrOn.-JIil,odukee Mogazine.

full effects which have attended the use
of DIR. WALKERS VINEGAR BITTERs as
an antidote to the causes of disease and
a cure for every comfortable ailment
have demonstrated the utter fallacy of
the doctrine that alcohol is tonic as
well as stimulant. The new and in
comparable Vegetable Remedy which
has superseded the death draught of rum
bitters is as free from every Intoxicating
element as the dew of Heaven, yet see
how it is invigorating the nervous, re-
lieving the bilious, curing the dyspeptic,
purifying the blood of the scrofulous,
strengthening the debilitated, arresting
premature decay, and replacing despond
ency and weakness with cheerfulness
and activity. Truly a grand Medical

HEART DISEASE. persons suffer
with heart disease without knowing it
suddenly they drop of, and their
friends are astonished, on post mortem
examination, to learn that they died OF
heart disease. The heart, like the
brain, is the seat Of life-its diseases
are of several characters. The most
common are valvular diseases, fatty de-
generation, and functional derange-
ment. If the liver becomes deranged,
and digestion is impaired, the heart,
through sympathy and iuxtaposition,
becomes abnormal. The following
symptoms indicate approaching disease:
palpitation, giddiness, faintness, nerv-
GUS prostration, deranged digestion,
vertigo, cold e1tremities, etc, ETC.. for
which the old school will administer
iron, opium, antimony, mercury, and
many other mineral poisons. Heart
disease is a blood disease-purify the
blood; remove distractions to limpid
circulation by taking that Vegetable
Alterative, VINEGAR BITTERs, and you
will be sound person in two or three
months.-Cona.

Measuring Lightning.

The length of flash of lightning is
generally greatly under-estimated. The
longest known was measured by NJ. +.
Petit, at Toulouse. This flash was ten
and a half miles long. Arago once
measured a series which averaged from
seven to eight miles in length. The
longest interval ever remarked between
fash and report was seventy-two
seconds, which would correspond with
q district of fourteen miles. Direct re-
searches have shown that storm is
seldom heard at a greater distance than
from seven to ten miles, while the aver
age are barely heard over four or five
miles off. This fact is more curious as
q cannon may be heard double or treble
that distance, and in special cases much
further.

NEW YORK

A welLknown freight agent in New
York stated that he was we'll acquainted
with the Loch Earn, and had frequently
put cargoes aboard her. She had, he
said, been originally built to trade be-
tween Canada and England, and, in
order to enable her to force her way
through ice when she fell in with it, was
furnished with q bowsprit steel-plated
and of extra thickness. This fact, he
thought, accounted for the manner in
which she went crushing into the side
OF the Vile du Havre.
