sestive shrugs, and in some instances the names
OF parties were mentioned who are supposed to

IND substantial reason that warrants the pub
location OF any concern as being either weak or in

"There is one point" said the man, " that
whenever any person comes into my saloon and
looks stranger-lke, and particularly il they give
any evidence of being unused to city life they
invariable ask for vanilla cream. don't
know why it is other than the fact that vanilla
was about the first flavor used in ice cream. In
olden times it was supposed that ice cream
might produce hysteria, and az vanilla was ad-
ministered incidentally for that, they used it as
suitable flavor to counteract any evil effects that
cream might have. Those were the dsys
when doctors were just beginning to allow
their fever patients to have ice and drink cold
water. The consequence WAS that vanilla ice
cream thus became widely known, and it is ono
of the best. By some it ia called 'vani' by
others miller, and there are those also who ask
Tor " banilla. or course these mistakes are
laughablc, but then we never treat unknowing
people in any ungentemanly or unladylike way
1t is not our business to make fun of others,
who, in all probability know infinitely more than
we do in their business at home"
What sort OF ice cream do ladies' ask for2"
continued che reporter.
Elderly ladies take lemon, middle-aged like
chocolate, young ladies take strawberry, and the
quite pert misses ask for orange, peach and
mixed tlayors. 1t has become quite fashionable
TO ask for mixed creams During the strawber-
ry season we sell berries and ice cream. Ice
cream and berries form the principal demand
nowadays. There is great deal in appear
ance, and plate heaped high with berries and
cream looks aristocratic and still doesn't cost
much. Then, again, it is very palatable and ia
much more creditable than spending that mon
ey for something that does not do any person
any good, but rather harm. Ice cream is re-
freshing and nourishing, and can be eaten in
perfect safety by everybody"

No rear Of Death In the Dying.

A striking fact in connection with the dying La
that they are not afraid OF death. You notice
this even in executions. The majority of men
who are hanged are reported to die game. "
Death following disease or injury is, with the rar-
est exceptions, not..accompanied with fear. Dis
ease dulls the intelligence 80 that the situation
may not be fully comprehended; or there may be
pain and death is looked upon as a relief. Ma
ture, by kindly provision, seems to,prepare for
the flight Of the spirit as the hold Of life grows
weaker, 30 does the desire for life grow less
and in scarcely single instance within my own
experience, or within that of my professional
brethren, with whom have conversed upon this
point, has not the dying man relinquished life
at the last without seeming reluctance or fear.
The several physical phenomena which &C.
company the act of dying, vary considerably
in the earlier stages with the causes whice pro-
duce death there is much similarity in the latter
steps. Death offers them a physiognomy,
which, once witnessed, is not hard 70 recognize
again.
Among the more constant signs are the failing
pulse, which gradually becomes imperceptible,
first at the wrist, and lastly at the breast itself;
the e1tremities grow cold; the countenance
changes as the yenous blood courses the arter-
les; the skin grows clammy as the vessels relax;
the eye glazes; the jaw droops; the fluids accu-
mulate III the wind-plpe, causing the "death rat
tie, 30 called, as the air passes through the
breath comes short and finally ceases.
AS the red blood leaves the brain, the judg-
ment becomes obscured, and the senses deficient
Speech is incoherent. Many times "last words"
are imagined by affection to mean more than
intended, If there was any intention at all 1T
grows dark, or '' more light" are common say
ings as the optic nerve loses its stimulus Or
strange sights may be seen and sounds heard, as
occurs sometimes in the still twilight The hal
lucinations OF the dying may be often explained
upon natural causes.-Prof. X. o. Co,oling

In zsceptAesssr toithe.N. r., Tribune Colonel
VIM. NJ Grqstenor exposes with great distIpct-

the politics Of the State. On the streets Of st.

OF the Democratic party. Several mes who were
extremely bitter against the Republicans last
Fall now offer to spend weeks in addressing the
Germans of Ohio in behalf OF the party. The
trouble began sometime ago. About II 000 men,
mostly Germans, voted for Lincoln in that slave
state in 1850. For this, and for active and in
valuable Union services during the war, the Be-
cession element has desperately hated them ever
since. Blair WAS thrown aside to make room for
Bogy, candidate far inferior to him in every
respect, but whose record WAS more acceptable to
the majority. Union men were gradually driven
frsm place and power. The Democratic party
became more than ever subordinate to the con-
federate and q certain religious element The
Democrats went for imitation and insisted on re-
pudiahon. Senator Carl Schurz fought for an
honest currency. He was accordingly removed

Last year agents were sent all over the State to
get up war claims for the property of confeder-
ate sympathizers, destroyed during the rebellion.
The State appointed q commission which accept
ed two or three millions Of such claims, but
they haye had little success with the LegislR-
ture thus far. The government of both the
State and the city Of St. Lonis has been shame

disgusted honorable men of whatever political
views, and the next election is likely to see an
unprecedented struggle to redeem Missouri from
the political yandals,
