Remedy Against Cholera.

DR.. Woodwork, the officer appointed
by tho United States authorities to
investigate tho subject, says "the true
remedy against cholera is preventive
medicine, and he might add, preventive
measures. The Inter nro OF the ordi-
nary hygionic character, which, though
well understood, arc too little attended
to by the bulk Of the people. It was
shown at the time of the Ashantee war
that water may be effectually purified Of
organic matter with n mixture of clay,
pormanganate Of lime, aud sulplatc Of
nlumiua in due proportions. Expert
ments in Europe in 1872, with n number
Of ordinary agents, showed conclusivcly
that while some are comparatively power
less to produce any effect in destroying
the life of the bacteria which exist in
some OF the fluids OF the system in
cholera, these bodies arc effectively de-
stroyed by sulphate of iron, and
especially by sulphuric and nitric acids.
Dr.. Woodwork joins with those who
for more than half n century have been
regarding these rs the best prevontivcs,
and he says emphatically that we do
"possess in the mineral acids certain
prophylaxis against cholera"

The CompositlOn Of MILK.

The dairyman's raw material is milk,
and milk is fluid Of animal origin,
varying, within certain limits, in the
relative amounts OF its component parts.
1t will DO sufficiently accurate for our
present purpose to say that one hundred
parts of milk are composed Of eighty
seven and onc.half parts Of water, three
and ono-half parts Of butter, three and
one.eighth parts Of sugar, and less than
one part Of mineral matter. In new
milk the composing parts ore in state
Of solution, and oil except the buttercan
be drawn from existing association only
by agencies which change their form or
composition. Tho butter is only held
mechanically in the milk it exists ms m
emulsion OF oil and n heavier fluid,
which is chiefly water and curd.forming
material. When milk is examined with
n microscope the globules Of oil are
plainly seen floating in the liquor. 1t is
the art OF the buttermaker to collect
these globules into solid mass.

The American Crocodile,

William T. Hornday makes repul.
sive subject interesting in treating OF
the Florida crocodile. His notes are
the result Of personal observation dur
ing soiourn on the southeast coast OF
Florida, where he wascollecting zoologi-
cal specimens. He describes the croco-
die as pugnacious, and very tenacious
Of life, often living to green old age,
after passing through MI kinds OF DIES.
perate struggles. 1t is not an uncom-
mon thing to find specimen which has
lost n part Of its tail or one OF its legs ;
and m alligator cousin german to
the crocodile-was killed last winter,
whose upper jaw had been broken of
squarely halfway up to his eyes by
some casualty probably occurring years
ago.
Mr.. Hornday procured very fne
male crocodile for his collection by ly.
ing in wait for him with rife near n
mudhole in which he WIS wont to wal
low. The old fellow madca sturdy re-
sistance to tho advance Of the destroyer,
and gave up only after receiving six
bullets i'll his neck, directed towards the
brain. He measured fourteen feet i'll
length, and five feet two inches in cir
cumfercnce Mt q point midway between
his fore and hind legs. He had evil
IDENTIFY brayed death before in one shape
or another; three OF his teeth were found
to be shattered ; the tibia and tibula OF
his right hind leg had been broken in
two and joined again, rs had also one of
the metatarsal bones Of the same limb ;
about five inches had been bitten or torn
of his tail, and there was sign of m
old wound in the awkward angle ut
which two of the vertebrp near the mid
die of the tail had grown together.
Tho next day this crocodile's mate was
shot in tho same neighborhood. She
measured ten feet eight inchesin length,
and presented many points in contrast
with tho other. Her teeth were regular
and white and sharp. The notified
black and yellow OF her back and sides
was distributed evenly, the yellow rather
predominating than otherwise while in
tho case of the male no part was yellow
except the belly-tho sides shading OF
into the lusterlcss black which covered
almost all OF the back and tail. The
ovary of tho female contained four hun
bred and twenty eggs, varying in size
from No. 5 shot TO hens egg, and all
perfectly spherical. 1t may DO added,
in passing, that the female crocodile
lays twenty or thirty eggs at q time,
which she puts in myers in hole in the
mud or sand on the shore, covering each
layer with coat OF earth and reeds and
grass. She then leaves the process of
Matching to the fermentation Of this
mass, which reaches the right degree in
about months time.

Cabinet or Parlor Organs.

These have become the most popular
of large musical instruments. There
arc now about two hundred and fifty
makers of them in the United States,
who produce moro than forty thousand
organs per annum. Most Of these are
very poor instruments. This is naturally
so, BECAUSE there arc few articles in the
manufacture Of which so much saving
can be made by the use Of inferior, i'm
properly prepared material, and inferior
workmanship, and yet which, when flu.
ished, show SO little difference to the
average purchaser. The important parts
of m organ, made as well rs they can
be, cost two or three times MS much MS
if made MS low rs possible. Yet, when
tho organ is done, it is not easy from
casual hearings to tell the difference be.
tween tho best and very poor one. Es.
pecially when shown by ono who knows
how to cover up defects, to one who las
not special skill in such matters, it is not
difficult to mako n poor organ appear
good one.
Tho temptation to makers, then, to
produce, at n fraction Of the cost, m or.
gan which will sell almost as we'll MS q
good one il almost irresistible. Hence
the fact that so few good organs re made
and 80 mnny poor ones, and that the
country is flooded with peddlers and
dealers selling these poor organs, which
pay such largc profits. The buyer of the
poor organ does not fail to find out his
mistake after while. The thin rccdy
tone of his cheap organ soon becomes
offensive, it works noisily aud roughly,
is constantly out Of order, aud becomes
useless by the time n really good in
strument would have been getting into
itsprime. A good organ ought to Inst n
generation, Mt least; poor one may
last five years, with considerable tinker
ing, or may break down much sooner.
There is one safe why. Get genuine
production Of one OF the very best makers
and you cannot go astray. Among these
undoubtedly stands prc.emincnt the
Mason & Hamlin Organ Co., whose
organs arc 80 well known TINT other
makers are generally content to claim
that they can make as good IN organ rs
the Mason & Hamlin. They invented
and introduced tie Cabinet or Parlor
Organ in its improved form, started with
and have always closely adhered to the
policy Of making only tho best work,
have shown such skill Ms has given their
organs the highest reputation, not only
in this country but also in Europe. At
the Great Exposition ut Vienna, in COM
petition with eighty Of the best makers
in the world, they obtained tho highest
medals. To enumerato the competitions
Mt which they have received similar
honors would be to give n list OF the
fairs Mt which they have exhibited and
to mention the prominent musicians who
recommend their organs MS unequalcl

OF the most illustrious musical names in

Long Cl0aks.

OF all garments that have grown
longer, says a fashion journal, cloaks
show the most decided increase in
length. The long pelissesand bnsquines,
nearly fitted to the figure, are revived for
clothcloaks, while long Frenchsacks with
loose backs aro used for those Of silk
that are lined with fur. Dolmans are
also longer, and have ample sleeves from
the elbow to the wrist. There are other
new wraps that resemble tho double
capes oftwo years ago, but which have
the fronts turned up to form sleeves.
New jackets of figured camel's-hair have
closed sleeves hanging long and square,
and showing lining Of velvet.
