Chances Of Living.


A medical writer of eminence has
been collecting evidence as to the
chances of life which children have,
upon being born, in different countries.
Out of 10, 900 children born it is found
from official statistics that in Norway rs
many as T,415, or roughly speaking,
three ont of every four, live to be TWEEN
ty years of age. In England only 6, 627
so live, or 7S6 fewer than in Norway.
In the United States boys have nearly
as coed & chance of life as in England,
while girls have not. But In France
only 3, 022, or scarcely more than One
out of two, reach twenty. While In
Ireland no more than 4, 855, or actually
less than one out of two, attain that
age. More surprising still are the sta
tistics regarding old age Ont of the
same 10, COO, for example, We learn that
in Norway 3, 487, more than one out Of
three, reach seventy; in England almost
one out OF four in the United States,
still men only, one out of four-a trife
higher than England In France, 1,776,
or about one out of 81 and IN ireland
only S61, or one out of III. If this
table is to be depended upon, We thus
learn that of all countries in the world
Norway offers the newborn child the
best chance of long life; while Ireland
offerts the worst. And France, uDiYer
sally admitted to be so far as soil and
climate are concerned one of the most
favored regions of the earth, offers but
little better chance than Ireland.

MammOth Hot Springs.

The great hot springs of GARDENERS
river form one of the most notable feat
ures of the magnificent Yellowstone
national park, set apart by act of con-
gress, March 1, 1872, as a pleasure
ground for the people. The tract of
land thus appropriated comprises an
area of ffty-fve by sixty-fve miles in
the northwest corner of Wyoming and
southwest corner of Montana terrific
ries, and embraces the wonderful canons
of the Yellowstone river Yellowstone
lake, with an area of $50 square miles;
mountain ranges from ten to twelve
thousand feet in height, of volcanic orr
gin; and series Of geysers and hot
springs which are almost unparalleled.
OF all the marvellous scenery which re-
cent explorations have brought to light
in the weird regions of the Rocky noun
tains none surpasses the wonders of ma
ture that are crowded in this territory
which has happily become the property
of the nation.
GARDENERS river, which is small trib-
utary of the Yellowstone, lies entirely
within the territory of Wyoming. The
hot springs upon it are situated In
rocky gorge, the walls of which rise to
an altitude of 1885 feet above the river.
few of the springs are on level with
the river, but the greater number of
them are distributed among fourteen
terraces, the lowest of which is 52S and
the highest 7035 feet above the river
level. The principal springs are found
on the first ten terraces, which are the
hottest springs. A constant change,
however, is going on in these volcanic
sources, and every year some die out
and others are formed. The springs
vary in size from geyser-like tubes and
little pools three or four inches in di-
ameter, which can only be found by
searching among the grass, to real lakes
q hundred feet in diameter, They are
almost fairy-like in beauty, with their
water, of an indescribably exquisite
sapphire hue, contained in dazzling
limestone basins resembling marble,
half hidden among the green grass, and
contrasting with the many-tinted rocks
for which the canons of the Yellowstone
are famed, while the pearly beads and
beautiful stslactite processes formed by
the dripping fIom one basin into an
other give an added glory to the scene.
The temperature of the springs varies
from 80 degs. to 1872 dogs. Fahrenheit.
One of them is described as being To-
Gated so near a stream of cold water
that the fisherman, without changing
his seat, can cast his line into the boil
ing water, and cook In five minutes the
fish he caught in the river. For the ex-
plOratiOns of this territory much credit
is due the United States geologist, Pro-
lessor HAYDEN, whose careful surveys
and graphic description have done 80
much to introduce this new region to
the public knowledge.

Horse Morals.

In discussing the moral qualities of
the horse, the Iowa State Journal offers
the following sensible remarks
In selecting a horse, or mare for
breeding, speed and form are not all
the qualities to be looked after. Never
breed vicious or ill-tempered horse,
no matter what may be his pedigree or
antecedents and reject at once any
horse lacking a sprightly intelligence.
There are as many degrees of intelli-
gence IN horse as in the human race,
and without intelligence horse is al
ways sluggish, stupid and awkward in
his movements. The thoroughbred
Arabian horse has generally that cspac-
ity necessary for learning any useful
lesson, that all his work and labor for
man are pleasure to the owner and
apparently to the horse. We like to
see man proud of a noble horse, but
more especially does it fill our hearts
with delight to see horse proud of his
master. There are clowns among
horses, and they are always a vexation
to the owner. Some will plod along,
never looking where they step, and just
as likely to step on a stump or hole in
bridge as any other place. But the
intelligent horse takes heed to his steps,
and, If anything happens dangerous to
life or limb to himself or his master,
has judgment frequently prevents the
accident. And a gentle, kind horse,
with large development of social and
intellectual powers, while away manyEa
weary hour of the lonely traveller, OF
| lightens the labor of the long days of the
tiller of the soil. In selecting breeders,
| great care should be taken relative to
the social morals of both horse and
mare. Like begets like, and in no case
more than that of the horse. A bad
and vicious temper in horse may be
| checked, but never eradicated, and he
will always be unpleasantly, dangerous,
andin his fretting and Tuning will unnec-
essarily waste his strength. Form and
action have claimed the closest scruti.
ny, and those qualities have been given
their full Importance, but the social
morals of the horse have been lost sight
of in the strife for speed and strength
Viciousness is almost invariably trans
mitted to the progeny, more certainly
than color or points, and should be
serious objection to any horse as a good
/ breeder.

Caked Bags in Cows.

A correspondent in the Cincinnati
Gazette says for cake bag IN COWS, get
ten cents worth of dry iodine fill a cup
with good fresh lard, and stir in the
iodine till it is thoroughly mixed let it
stand for day or night; stir it again
and rub it with the hand frequently,
and a cure is certain. Whoever en-
ploys the violent remedies should I'M
derstand that they may do more than is
desired. Iodine affects the secretions
powerfully, and causes the absorption
of tumors and abnormal growths may
it not also cause a decrease in the secre-
ton of milk? We have found that per-
sistent rubbing and kneading was better
than anything else. If the bag be very
tender, as it often is, give teaspoonful
of tincture of arnica in water, and rub
the same diluted with twice as much
water upon the bag, to take out the
soreness

A Human skull in Solid Rock.

a very strange discovery, interesting
to biologists, is reported by the Usage
Mission (Kansas) Journal. A human
skull was recently found near that place
imbedded in a solid rock which was bro
ken open by blasting. DIR. Weiriey, of
Usage Mission, compared it with q mod
ern skull which he had in his Office, and
found that though It resembled the lat
ter in general shape, it was an inch and
a quarter in greatest diameter, and
much better developed in some other
particulars. BE says of the relic: " It
is that of the Uranium of human species,
of large size, imbedded IN conglomer-
ate rock of the tertiary class, and found
several feet beneath the surface. Parts
of the frontal, parietal and occipital
bones were carried away by explosion.
The piece of rock holding the remains
weighs some forty or fifty pounds, with
many impressions of marine shells, and
through it runs q vein of quartz, or
within the Uranium crystalized organic
matter, and by the aid of a microscope
presents a beautiful appearance. I"
Neither Lyell nor Hugh Miller, it is
stated, nor any of the rest of the sub
teFranean explorers, report anything so
remarkable as this discovery at Usage
Mission. The Neander man comes
nearest TO it, but the Neanderthal bones
were found in loan only two or three
feet below the surface, whereas this
Kansas skull was discovered in solid
rock.

A Darkened Life.


In Nashua, N. H, resides young
girl, whose pitiful lot excites the deep
est sympathy, yet for whom sympathy
can do but little in alienation of her
sad misfortune. When child she was
terribly scalded about the head and
face, and, although she survived her in
jEries, she was theneeforth disfgured,
and the rosy face of childhood was
changed to a mask-a travesty on the
human countenance-absolutely fright
full in its hideousness. In Lowell, Mass,
where she once lived, so great was the
horror excited by her appearance that
she was forbidden by the authorities
to show hersesf in the streets. At
Nashua she ventured out the other day,
and several ladies tainted at sight of
her, and a call is now ma le upon the
authorities of the place to forbid her
appearance on tho streets.
