DO Not Eat Raw Eggs!

ONE of the most common prejudices of
housewives and mothers is that hard
eggs are difficult to digest, especially the
white, and that the less they are boiled
the better they are for weak and dyspep-
tic stomachs The reverse is the case. as
there is more danger of raw and soft
white of an egg passing through the
digestive apparatus without being really
digested than when thoroughly boiled
and hard; in fact then it constitutes a
most excellent food for dyspeptics, as ex-
peIience is proving. A writer in the
Medical Journal saws: I'VE have seen
dyspeptics who suffered untold torments
with almost every kind of food. No
liquid could be taken without suffering
bread became a burning acid; meat and
milk were solid and liquid fires. We
have seen these same sufferers trying to
avoid food and drink and even going to
the enema syringe for sustenance. And
we have seen their torments pass away
and their hunger relieved by living upon
the white of eggs which had been boiled
in bubbling water for thirty minutes. AT
the end of IA week we have given the hard
yolk of the egg with the white, and upon
this diet alone, without fluid of any kind
we have seen them begin to gain flesh
| and strength and refreshing sleep. After
weeks of this treatment they have been
| able, with care, TO begin upon other food y
And all this, the writer adds, without
| taking medicine. He says, what we also
have always maintained, that hard boiled
| eggs are not half SO bad as boiled
ones and ten times easy to digest as
| raw eggs; and we have no doubt that an
animal may be starved to death by eat
| ing only raw white of an egg, for the
same reason that dogs have been starved
by eating gelatin alone. Only toothless
babies can digest soft food. such as milk

that was the total lack of beauty. There
was not one really beautiful woman
present. There were some with
fine eyes and others with fine Shout
ders and still others with grace
full figures, but for actual striking
loveliness, or even that degree of beauty
which is common to at least One-third of
the well-bred women of America-there
was none of it. A Philadelphia assem-
bly, numbering 500 guests could display
fifty times the amount of female charms
than did this assemblage of over 5000.
The clothes were neutrality-suspicious.
far beyond anything that one ever sees
at home, and the faces and forms were
nothing in particular, if not actually
ugly. The aged element, too, came out
very strongly among the ladies. Veneer
able dowagers, with scraggy or beefy
necks, much laden with diamonds, and
with masses of false hair on their poor
old skulls, sat up in battalions and
yawned at the dancers. There were
myriads of these antiquated persOnages;
they quite threw the young girls into the
background. But young girls are no
bodies IN France. 1t looked rather odd
TO my transatlantic eyes to behold the
rows of solemn-looking damsels in SIM
pie tulle or plainest tarlatan, with never
a jewel and scarcely rosebud to adorn
their attire, seated demurely by their
mammals, and looking horribly bored.
What good time a party of American
girls have under such circumstances at
home! 1 am inclined to think that our
style of doing things socially is right af-
ter all, and that the young girl element
should be the predominating one in So
ciety. Let the young things do the fiirt-
ing and dancing, and the frolicking in
general. Seventeen adorns a ballroom

Another Case OF HydrOphObfa.

THE attention of the medical faculty
of Brooklyn has again been brought to
that remarkable and most terrible of
maladies, hydrophobia, by fatal case
which occurred in that city yesterday.
The victim was a negro named William
Ellice, thirty-five years of age, man of
steady and regular habits. Ellice was a
coachman and lived with his wife and
family at No. 1873 Gold street. Last sum-
nier he was bitten by a coach dog belonging
to his employer, the animal putting its
teeth through the t1eshy part of the in
dex finger of the left hand. But little
attention was paid to the wound at the
time, as it very soon healed. The dog
had exhibited some symptoms of mad
ness, it seems, prior to biting Ellice, and
the fact coming to the knowledge of d
policeman he shot the brute, very much
to the regret of the coachman. The cir
cumsiance was forgotten in time, Ellice
enjoying excellent health, apparently,
and continuing to perform his labors. On
Wednesday last, while walking along
Hillary street, the fell disease which had
been so long latent in the blood mani
Tested itself in a sudden and fearful
manner He was Frustrated by sharp
spasm and fell heavily on the sidewalk
He was carried to a drug store and there
received stimulants, which had the effect
OF restoring him to consciousness. As
soon as he was able to walk he repaired
to his home without assistance. He had
not been long in the house when he ex-
perienced pain in the finger that had
been bitten, and the member began to
swell. The affection next extended to
the arm and then to the throat, until the
whole body was affected and violent con-
tortions and agony, physical and mental,
ensued. Elllce, among other vagaries
of the mind, conceived the idea that
some one was endeavoring to murder his
wife and children. At this stage Mrs.
Sllice summoned physician, DIR.
gentleman, on entering the sick-room
and before he had learned the incidents
cited above, pronounced the pa
tient to be suffering from hydro
phobia. The doctor prescribed opium
and choral in liberal doses, but these
had no effect. The spasms and contor
tons OF the muscles continued, and final
ly became SO violent that the patient was
unable to swallow either food or drink.
A consultation of medical men was held
in which Drs. Seguin, Sanitary Superin-
tendent of the Board of Health, Shaw
and G. X. Smith took part with the ply
sician in attendance. While they were
discussing the case one of the doctors
spoke of the dog and the nature of the
bite, which the patient overheard, and
springing from his bed set upon the of
Tending doctor and forcibly elected him
from tie room before he could be pre-
vented by the astonished spectators. The
patient continued to suffer overwhelmingly
until Sunday morning, when the spasms
ceased. He did not sleep five minutes
during his sickness. From Sunday he
sank rapidly, despite the administration
of stimulants, and died yesterday morn
tug at an early hour.-New York Herald,

AlphOnSO in His Palace.

DESCRIBING the entry of King AlphOn-
SO into the capital, correspondent says
"All the travelled world knows the saloon
of the Ambassadors, the gorgeous throne
room of the Royal Palace at Madrid.
Into this noble apartment the procession
now swept. The saloon glittered with
colossal mirrors, crystal chandeliers,
marble statues and fine pictures. The
gorgeous dais of the throne rose from
the floor by three broad steps, with gold
en- lions at the corners, the fore paws
resting proudly on marble globes. The
throne was beautiful structure of GRIM
son velvet, enamel and gold A brilliant
throng gathered round the throne as the
King sat on it Il few moments, and the
scene was very striking. Through the
great windows opposite wide view
stretched across the valley to orchards
and villas and wooded slopes, and the
bare, rugged mountains beyond The
reception began by the Marquis de Mo-
lines, Senior Canovas del Castillo and
Gen. Primo de Rivera standing ON the
steps of the throne with four of the lead
ing grandees. The King stood ON the
edge of the dais, with his hand on the
hilt of his sword. He was dressed, as
he had been throughout his progress, in
an undress Generals uniform, with Il
sash and a few orders. Presentations
were made by the Grand Hereditary
Chamberlain, attired in gorgeous court
dress. The Populations and persons pre-
sented defiled past the throne and bowed
to the King, receiving his bow in return.
Meanwhile the gorgeous suite of state
apartments was thrown open to prone
naders, and ladies and gentlemen circu-
lated through the rooms, decorated in
different styles. This one was hung with
cloth of gold, with silver woven into it.
Another was inlaid from ceiling to floor
in porcelain with raised figures. A
third was lined with great China vases
A fourth was simply furnished as an or,
binary room. A fifth was hung with
Bourbon portraits. A sixth was devoted
to NEUROLOGICAL pictures, and SO on. The

Massachusetts Marriage Statistics.

AN individual, evidently of an 1nquir-
ing turn of mind, has been looking into
the marriage statistics of Massachusetts
and this is what he finds: The record
shows that the last three months of the
year are the seasons when most mar
riages are celebrated-the next favOrite
season is spring and early summer.
During the year 1873 the number of fe-
males married at the age of II was 439,
an excess of 80 above the average num-
Der f. the last seven years. One hun
dred and seventyfour were married at
the age of &c. forty seven at Is and seven
al IA Among the males, two were mar
ried at 10, eleven at II, forty-four at 1s
and one hundred and forty-three at 10.
OF the males above named who married
at Is three took for wives girls aged 10,
