How common is the announcement.
Thousands are suddenly swept into
eternity by this fatal malady. This
disease generally has its origin in i'm
pure blood filled with irritating. poi
sonOus materials, which. circulating
through the heart, irritate its delicate
tissues. Though the irritation may at
first be only slight. producing a little
palpitatiOn or irregular action, or dull,
heavy, or sharp darting pains, yet by
and by the disease becomes firmly
seated. and inflammation. or hypertro
ply. or thickening of the lining mem
brane or of the valves, is produced.
How wise tO give early attention to a
case of this kind. Unnatural throbbing
or pain in the region of the heart should
admOnish one that all is not right, and
if you would preserve it from further
disease, you must help it to beat rightly
by the use of such a remedy as will re
move the cause of the trouble. Use

Dyspepsia is the most perplexing of
all human ailments. Its symptoms are
almost infinite in their variety, and the
f0rlOrn and despOndent victims of the
disease often fancy themselves the
prey, in turn, of every known malady.
This is due, in part, to the close sym
pathy which exists between the stOm
ach and the brain, and in part also to
the fact that any disturbance of the
digestive function necessarily disorders
the liver, the bowels and the nervous
system, and effects, to some extent, the
quality of the blood.

When you see sofa and two lengths
of stove-pipe on a front stOop, and a
child on the premises eating a slice of
bread and jam, il is safe to believe that
the family has just moved in. When
you see several windows open, with
lengths of carpet hanging from them,
and a child at the front eating bread and
jam, it is an equally sure indication that
the family is cleaning house.

Keeping WUm.-One way not to keep
warm is to drink freely of hot drinks !;
to keep the pores of the skin closed |;
to eat more than can be digested; to
sit over hot air furnace; to lace
tightly; wear tight garters, tight shoes.
tight gloves, and bundle up with
heaps" of warm clothing; wear
muffilers around the neck, and avoid a
breath of cool, fresh air; take wine or
bitters before meals. and pills to aid
digestion after eating. Do this daily a
month or more, and you will be as
tender as a tropical house plant, and
will take dreadful colds" on the slight
est exposure. Hot drinks just before
going out are especially favorable to in
duce chills; and this is the way many
are trying to cheat nature and prOlong a
miserable existence.-Science Of Health.

Prairie Chickens and Grosshoppers.-
While natnralists and entOmologists are
puzzling over the discovery of some
plan to prevent the recurrence of the
grasshopper plague i'm the Western
States during next fall, it would be well
for them 10 take the immense yearly
slaughter of the prairie chickens into
consideration. The numbers of these
birds which are slaughtered each winter
by trapping after heavy snow storms,
and find their way to the markets, are
something enormous; and as the grass
hoppers constitute a great part of their
natural food, it seems not improbable
that the disappearance of the former
might exercise a very appreciable effect
in the increase ofthe devastating insects.

Easy Mode Of Sharpening Edge Tools.
The simplest mode of sharpening a
razor or other edge tool, is to place the
blade for about half an hour in water
containing One-twentieth of its weight
of sulphuric or muriatic acid. Upon
taking the razor out, wipe it of lightly
on piece of soft rag, and in a few
hours afterward "set" it on strop.
The acid supplies the place of u whet-
stone, by cOrroding the entire surface
uniformly, SO that nothing but a good
polish is afterwards needed. This pro-
cess never Injuries good razors, while
poor ones are improved by it.

Groring Large Fruh.-How il happens
that by winding cord or small wire
about a grape vine or limb of an apple
tree the size of the fruit j. increased, is
explained in this way: BY winding
tightly, fine annealed wire around a
branch of grape vine or limb of fruit
tree. a little below the fruit, the sap l.
not prevented from passing up the sap
wood, but, after il becomes elaborated
in the leaves into proper food to grow
the vine. tree or fruit, it passes down
the branch, putting on new layer of
wood, until it reaches the wire, where
it is stopped for want of room, and the
nourishment intended for the whole
limb and the root is all expended upon
the fruit and limb above the WIRE The
consequence is, the fruit grows to enor-
nous size, and the limb swells out above
the wire two years growth in one.
This is easily tried, but should not be
done till the fruit has set, allowing the
returning sap previous to this to pass
and nOurish the parts below sufficient
to prevent any great injury to the root.

Chlorine Gas in a New Relation
During the late cholera epidemic in
Vienna, a new remedy, called cam
phOrein, was used with great success In
the hospitals. 1t is prepared simply by
passing chlorine gas into pure turpen-
tine oil until saturated it gives a
thick, heavy, oily fluid. of brown color,
with strong smell of chlorine. This
is freed from muriatic acid by washing
with water. The remedy is applied by
placing portion in a fiat vessel and
holding it to the patient to inhale.-

1t is worth knowing that if one vol
ume of castor oil be dissolved in two or
three volumes of spirits of wine it will
render paper transparent, and, the
spirit rapidly evaporating, the paper in
a few minutes becomes fit for use. A
drawing in pencil or in India ink can
thus be made, and if the paper is placed
in spirits of wine the oil is dissolved
out. restoring the paper to its original
condition. This is the discovery of

Panoramic PhOtOgrdphs.-M. j. F.
Plucker, of the Belgian Photographic
Association. contributes an ingenious
method of producing panoramic prints
from two or more negatives. The ne
gative must be taken so as to include,
at the edges where the junction is to be
made, a portion of the subject in COM
mon. This portion is printed from one
Of the negatives upon slip of paper,
which is divided in the center with a
penknife. The two halves are then
attached to the negatives in such a
manner as to exactly cover the portion
it is intended to stop out" of each, q
piece of Opaque paper, the size of the
negatives used, being also gummed on
for the purpose of protecting the sensi-
tive paper, which is not covered by the
negative. The first negative is placed
in a printing frame large enough to
hold the number of negatives intended
to be combined, and. after printing, the
extremities of the line of junction are
carefully marked with pin point.
Negative No. . is then introduced and
brought into register with the pin holes.
This may be done either by holding the
frame up to the light. or by resting it
on the edge of a table, lamp being
placed ON the floor. Having secured
the register, proceed to print in the
usual way, repeating the operation for
each different negative.

A Ddiry HouSe.-There are certain
conditions necessary for complete sue
cess i'm dairying-the temperature and
freedom from all impurities being the
most prominent. As this branch of
farming is daily becoming more promi-
nent, and must continue to increase, the
following suggestions from a CORES
pOndent of contemporary, will be
found of advantage To those who may
contemplate making improvements in
their dairy quarters, or who intend
erecting a new dairy house:
The dairy house should be built about
four feet below ground; it is airy, high,
light, dry, cool and detached from any
other building. Ii is smoothly plastered
inside, and well ventilated. No impure
air of any kind reaches it from without,
and everything within is the perfection
of cleanliness and neatness. Ii is fur
nished with open racks of lath all around
it, bench beneath northern window
and table i'm the centre. The pans,
which are shallow ones of tin, holding
about ten quarts each, are filled to three
inches i'm depth, and are placed on the
shelves of the racks. The shelves are
made of lathS, 20 that the cool, fresh air
of the mIlk-room reaches all parts of
the pan, and speedily reduces the milk
to the desired temperature. This is
kept at about 30 degrees all the year
round by means of current of cold air,
which is brought into the room through
pipes from the adjoining ice-hOuse in
summer, and by stove in winter.
The cream is skinned, after the milk
has stood thirty-six hours, into oaken
casks of forty gallons each. The churn-
ing-room adjoins the milk-rOOm. The
churns are casks similar i'm every respect
TO those in which the cream il stored.
The churning is done by small horse
power run by a small pony, which, by
means of rocking shaft, operates a
common upright dash. The churning
is made TO occupy at least half an hour.
Ii is held here that first-clasS butter
cannot be made in five minutes, by any
of the rapidly working churns. The
butter is worked by lever fixed to an
inclined table, and the buttermilk, as it
is worked out, is absorbed by sponge
enyeloped in clean cloth, and dipped
in pure ice-cold water.
