American Women.

1t is melancholy fact that American
women have degenerated in point of
health and physique, until they have be-
come literally race of invaiids. How
sad it is to look around us and compare
the frail and effeninate looking lady
of to-day with the hale, hearty and
buxom ladies of days gone by. To all
such the late discovery of DR.. Walker,
of California, which is known as Vinegar
Bitters, is priceless boon indeed. For
this class of diseases it is certain and
safe, and any lady, old or young, can
take it with entire confidence in the re-
suit, and thus avoid what to thousands is
stumbling block never overcome, viz
a consultation with family physician.
lis true there may be cases of years
standing, that will necessitate more
powerful treatment, but in nine cases
out of ten this remedy will reach the
disease, and after little time effect n
cure. The number of ladies cured by it
are numbered by thousands, and are

DON'T SNUB CHILDREN.

How often do we see people enter a
family in which they are acquainted,
speak pleasantly to all the grown folks,
but vouchsafe not even nod of recogni-
ton to the children. Is it any wonder
that boys become rude and boOrish,
caring for nobody, because they are per-
petually made 10 feel that they are in the
way, and that nobody cares for theml
Is it any wonder that girls In their teens
are so awkward and i'll at ease when they
first begin to be treated with some con-
siderationi If children were treated with
the same politeness which we extend to
young ladies and gentlemen, "the awk-
ward age" when hands and feet are such
inconvenience, would not make its
appearance. once had in my school
family of children who invariably
attracted the attention of visitors;
they were not especially pretty, nor
smart, nor well dressed, but people who
saw them never failed to remark, "What
pleasant manners those children have"
The first time 1 visited their home 1 dis
covered the secret. The mother, having
occasion to pass before one of the girls,
said to her as she would have sale. TO me,
=" Excuse me for passing before you"
The mystery was solved at once; she
treated her children as she would have
them treat her, and the consequence was
they were the best bred children in the
neighborhood.- CORES. Bucks County

TILE PI PLANT.

The pi plant liz luxurious weed, that
IL cultivated in the garden, and the more
it IL kut off the better it grows. 1t looks
not unlike the wild burdock, and grows
just about az hi, and has leaf on it like
tobacco.
The leaf ov the pi plant IL about the
size ov an elephants ear, and the stalk
on which the leaf grows IL deikate
wine color.
Out ov the stalk the pi IL made, and it
IL the first pi out ov green sass that yu
kan git in the spring.
The pi plant IL az sour az country
school marin, and one pound ov plant
takes four pounds ov sugar to soothe it.
There IL sum pholks think that this pi
kan beat the pumkin pi, but right here
liz WHARF they err.
They dassent bet on it.
When emmy man tells me that sutch
and sutch pi kan beat the pumkin, 1
konsider that man may hav sense enuff
to sett ON jury, or perhaps assist in
lending toll gate, but for all the i'm
portant dutys ov life he IL of no more
use than an axe without emmy handle.
But pi plant liz better than no pi, but
it does take in the sugar the darndest.
If was going into the pi plant pi
spekulashun, 1 should want partner,
and should let him furnish the sugar
and I would put up the roots, and we
would divide the profits equal
/ should say that this would be smart
thing for me to do.-Josh Billings.

GRASSHOPPERS.

The crop of grasshoppers this year
promises to be as abundant in Missouri
as it was in Kansas and Nebraska in
1874. A gentleman in this city received
a box of specimens from Weston, in that
State, on Tuesday. There seemed to be
millions in it-an innumerable mess of
sprightly little fellows, from an eighth to
a quarter of an inch long. They had
been scooped up by the handful, and the
gentleman who gathered them in says
there are acres upon acres of them. The
ground is alive with the pest, and as
soon as they have grown a little more
they will take wing, and then comes the
havoc. 1t is not unlikely that they will
appear as far east as Southern Illinois
the present season. 1t was thought the
late cold weather would be fatal to these
grasshoppers, but they seem to be proof
against any ordinary temperature, and
can stand sharp frost good deal

Il HAWK STORY.

A few days ago two hunters were rid
ing toward this city on one of the foot
hill roads, when they observed chicken
hawk in the midst of flock of crows,
and each crow in turn seemed to be Civ
ing the hawk pick. The unequal con-
test excited the sympathy of the observ-
ers, and they thought of giving the crows
a shot. While they were bordering over
the matter the hawk made quick dart
from the midst of his enemies toward
their buggy, and ON reaching tine ground
near them skulked beneath the brush
fence. The horses were stopped, and
one of the party alighted and picked up
the bird. 1t was found to be nearly
frightened to death, but bore no marks
of violence. 1t was brought to the city
and placed in a cage.-Marysvile (Cal.)

GRAIN-SAMPLER.

A Maryland inventor has patented a
grain-sampler, which is described as fol-
lows: 1t consists of metal cylinder,
provided ON the sides with wings or
fanges, closed and pointed at the end,
and containing three openings; within it
is hollow spindle or Shaft which has a
circumferential movement in it, and is
furnished with openings of correspond
ing size, which, when brought into the
same relative positions, afford means of
communication with the interior of the
spindle or shaft. There is also handle,
by means of which the spindle can be
turned and the openings easily opened
and closed. Tie condition of grain at
various depths and positions in the holds
of vessels, elevators and other places
where grain is stored In bulk, can be
positively determined, and the apparatus
produces at each withdrawal sample
which cannot possibly become mixed
with other matter through which it is
moved as it is brought to the surface.

THE destruction of life in India by
Wild beasts and reptiles appears to be on
the increase. Over 10000 persons, it is
estimated, die annually from snake bites
alone, while the inhabitants of the bor-
der lands are killed by tigers in alarming
numbers. In the three years from 1866
to 1869 tigers destroyed 946 Europeans
in the Central Provinces; during period
of six years wild beasts in Lower Bengal
cost 13, 401 lives; and in one month in
1867, in South Canara, forty persons fell
victims. Mr.. Clements Markham states
that single tigress caused the destruc-
ton of thirteen villages, and 256 square
miles of country were consequently
thrown out of cultivation, while another
tigress in 1869 killed 127 people and
stopped all traffic op public road for
many weeks.

4 CHASTITY PHENOMENON

The Nashville CTenn.) Union and
american says strange phenomenon is
exhibited in the office of the Courier
Herald, in the town of jackson. 1t is
thus described as to history and appear
ance: A man named William Heron was
out walking with his wife one Sunday
evening not long since, and in passing
an old nsgler ted graveyard near the pub
lie road, she saw gum bush with a
bunch of mistletoe on its top, and re-
quested her husband to get it for her.
He went and cut the top off the bush,
and commenced breaking off the mistle-
toe, when to his surprise and terror he
discovered that the wood underneath
presented the perfect form of human
hand. Captain Andrews, hearing of the
wonderful discovery, went to the house
of Mr.. Heron, who, feeling rather I'M
comfortable over the thought that he cut
it from a grave, and perhaps having
some theory as to its supernatural signifi-
canoe, very willingly let Captain An
drews have it. There are citizens of
this city to whom both Captain Andrews
and Mr.. Heron are known, and they are
vouched for as truthful men, but the
hand itself is proof enough of the truth
of their statement concerning its growth
on bush. The bush from which it was
cut was six feet high, and the hand was
on the top, pointing upward, presenting
the position of the minister's hand when
pronouncing a benediction. 1t is about
the size of a six-year-old child's hand,
with long slender fingers like those of q
person very much emaciated by sickness.
The wood has enlarged formations on
each finger and thumb, representing and
corresponding with the joints of the hui
man hand. The most remarkable feature
about it is the natural appearance of the
nails. They have a kind of flesh color,
and the balance of the hand, where the
bark has been entirely removed, looks
CHASTITY white. The first impression il
makes upon you is the same experienced
in handling a skeleton, and large ma
jority of those who see it regard il
with the same subdued, half supersti
tious awe inspired by the presence of q
corpse. Mr.. Andrews says the grave
from which it was cut is supposed to be
the grave of very devout Methodist
minister by the name of Butcher, who
was buried there many years ago.

ENGLISH NEWSPAPERS.

Putting aside humor and speaking
words of truth and soberness, the Dan
bury Nea0s says: "They are rather
slow concerns, are the London dailies.
They crowd their advertisements into re-
pulsive limits; they mix up their matter
without any regard to classification; they
publish but beggarly handful of Amer
lean news; they report in full the most
insignificant speeches; they don't seem
to realize that there is such an attraction
as condensed news paragraphs; they
issue no Sunday paper, and but one or
two have weekly; they ignore agri
culture and science, personals, and Cos
sip; they carefully exclude all humor
and headlines, and come to their readers
every weekday, somber and mournful
spectacle that is most exasperating to
behold"

4 FEATHER-BED and A COW.

Justice Jossey, of Griffin, Ga, is soon
to try a case, in which the Widow Multi
gan is defendant, where the scales of
justice will "teeter" to hair before
the exact merits of the contest will be
fully determined. The Widow Mulhgan,
who lives in East Griffin, noting the adj
vent of tardy spring, recently took her
feather-bed and hung it on the fence to
ventilate, as well, doubtless, as to secure
the Matching beneath the warm rays of
the sun of all eggs of vermin, that the
yermin becoming visible might be slain.
There hung the feather-bed, peaceful
evidence of luxurious civilization,
harming nobody, when hungry town
COW came along and ate the bed up, tick
and all, at least so says the plaintiff
The cow enjoyed the meal no doubt but
it didn't seem to digest well and the COW
lay down and died. The man that owned
the cow has now sued the Widow Multi
gan for damages, and the widow pleads
an offset for her feathers

DR.. Hall is opposed to the immoderate
drinking of water. He says:
The longer one puts off drinking water
in the morning, especially in the sum-
mer, the less he will require during the
day; if much is drank during the fore
noon, the thirst often increases, and a
very unpleasant fullness is observed, in
addition to a metallic taste in the mouth.
The less man drinks, the better for
him, eyond a moderate amount. The
more water man drinks, the more
strength he has to expend in getting rid
of it, for all the fluid taken into the sys-
tenn must be carried out; and as there
is but little nourishment in water, tea,
coffee, beer, and the ike, more strength
is expended in carrying them out of the
system than they impart to it. The
more a man drinks, the more he must
perspire, either by lungs or through the
skin; the more he perspires, the more
carbon is taken from the system; but this
carbon is necessary for nutrition, hence
the less man is nourished, the less
strength he has.
Drinking water largely diminishes the
strength in two ways, and yet many are
under the impression that the more water
swallowed, the more thoroughly is the
system washed out" Thus, the less
we drink at meals, the better for us. If
the amount were limited to a single cup
of hot tea, or hot milk and water, at each
meal, an Unreasonable good would re-
suit to all. Many persons have fallen
into the practice of drinking several
glasses of cold water, or several cups of
hot tea or coffee, at meals, out of mere
habit; all such will be greatly benefited
by breaking it up at once; it may be very
well to drink little at each meal, and.
perhaps, it will be found that in all cases
it is much better to take single cup of
hot tea at each meal than glass of cold
water, however pure.
