SMELL OF PAINT.-To get rid of the
smell of oil paint, plunge handful OF
hay into pail full of water, and let ii
stand in the room newly painted.
HAM ToAsr.-Chop some lean ham
fine, put it in a pan, with little pepper,
a lump of butter, and two eggs beaten
when we'll warmed spread on hot but

CASTOR OH FOR CoRNs.-The South

applied to the corn, after pairing closely,
each night before going to bed, soften1
the corn, and it becomes as the other

For a sovereign remedy against
bleeding take linen, or other rags, and
burn them to charcoal. Put the char
coal in the wound and no more bleeding
will come For bleeding at the cavity
of an extracted tooth, pack the alveolus
fully and firmly with cotton moistened
with alum-water.
Too MUCH CAMPHoR.- Scientific
American cautions people against the
too frequent use of camphor as medi-
cine. 1t says the nature of camphor is
that of a nervous stimulant, similar to
opium or alcohol. and when taken in
large doses causes irritation of the nerv-
GUS system, and produces commissions,
often fatal in their effects.
As a moth preventive, mix half pint
of alcohol, the same quantity of spirits
OF turpentine and two ounces of cam
phor. Keep in a stone bottle and shake
before using. The clothes or furs are
to be wrapped in linen, and crumbled-
up-pieces of blotting-paper dipped in
the liquid are to be placed in the box
with them, SO that it smells strongly.
This requires renewing once year.
To MAKE HAIR CURL.-The method
employ d by professional workers in
curled hair is as follows: Wet the hair
to be curled, wrap it smoothly around a
cylindrical stick or tube of proper size,
tie it in place, and then put it in water
and boil it two or three hours, remove
it from the boiler, wrap it care fully in
newspapers, and bake it in a moderate
oven for an hour. Thus treated, it will
stay in curl permanently.

Bacteria in Diphtheria.

Since the death of Bretonneau, some
twenty-five years ago, it has been abun-
dainty proved that diphtheria is COM
municable otherwise than by innocula-
zion, for the result of numerous chemi-
cal ami microscopic investigations has
been to nearly demonstrate that the
disease is contagious by contact with
the patient through exhalations from
the surface and through his breath.
And it is thought that the cause of
diptheria had been found in the exist
ence upon the diseased parts in the
dirhtheritic cases of small vegetable
parasites, which are endowed with life
end motion, and which have been des-
ignated bacteria. These parasites in
crease in number as the disease in
creases in intensity, and if diphtheric
Inflammation attacks any surface which
is covered by the parasites, which cause
certain other diseases, such as catarrb,
the parasites diminish and disappe ar.
as though deprived of the required nu-
triment. And on the other hand, when
diphtheria disappears other vegetable
forms may succeed. The grayi,h- white
spots which appear upon inflame sur
faces at the beginning of diphtheria are
entirely composed of these bacteria,
which have come in contact with the
mucous membrane, and have adhere
to it, and which, unless prevented, will
multiply rapidly, and then by burrow-
ing through the tissues will infect the
whole system. The reason why diph-
liberia primarily and chiefly affects the
surfaces of the nose and throat is that
the air which contains the germs of the
bacteria constantly passes over the Sc
surfaces. The important conclusion to
be deduced from these facts is that
diphtheria is entirely local in it's COM
mencement, and is amenable to local
mes sures.

MUSICAL INsTRUMENTS.-ln making
your selection of Piano or Organ, don I
fail to examine the stock of Messrs.
Adams N Lucas, 1927 Market street.
The instruments they represent, viz: The
Steinwuy, Knabe and Emerson Pianos,
the Mason X Hamlin and Smith AmerI-
can Organs, are universally acknowI-
edged to be the leading instruments otthe
world, and taken together they make an
assortment 50 varied that no one cal fail
to be suited in the selection of an instru-
ment, either rs to price or quality. In
aSmuch rs many unscrupulous dealers
offer for sale instruments of questionable
character and inferior quality, It would
be well to bear in mind the fact that bat
few persons buy more than one uustru-
mcut in lifetime, hence the necessity OF
making u careful selection, for rs thou
sands OF experienced parties can testify,
it is cheaper, safer and better to buy in
strumcnts of established reputation, of
cook and responsible makers, that TO risk
money in doubtful experiments.

BASE Standards Successful
Yesterday afternoon match game OF
base ball was played between the Stand
ards, Of this city, and Mutuals, OF Md
dleport, Ohio, which resulted in a hand
some victory for the Wheeling boys.
Ouite y respectable sized crowd assembled
to witness the game, among whom was
fair sprinkling of ladies. The
Mutual club is one of the best amateur
organizations in Ohio and they have the
reputation of being No. players. While
the Standards had the best wishes OF
those present, very few among the spec
ta,ors believed the boys in blue would be
able to "get away wilh the Ohioans, and
as they did, they deserve that much more
credit.
In tossing for the choice Of innings,
the strangers won and sent the Standards
TO the bat. BY good batting and errors
on the part of the Mutuals, the Wheel
inc BOYS scored three ITALICS, mucn to the
surprise and delight of the spectators. The
Mutusls were retired with only one. In
the second inning the Standards secur-
ed two runs and their Opponentsthree. In
the third inning the Standards did some
splendid batting, and that with mutfng
and wild throws on the part OF
the Mutuals, they scored seven
runs. Standard stock went up
amazingly. The strangers were white
washed, and the game stood at the close
of the third inning, twelve to four in
favor of Wheeling. In the next six in
nin.s the Standards scored eight more
runs and the Mutuals nine, which closed
the game in favor Of the Standards
by score of 20 to l3
The Standard boys were in excellent
trim and played with steady nerve and
determination TO win. Glasscock, on
third base distinguished himself, playing
in manner that would have done credit
to professional. The most of the
members of the nine did their
work effectively, and made no errors OF
bad plays. On the Mutuals' side, Hal
the catcher, and the pitcher, played ex.
ceedingly well, but for most of the Other
members of the nine, they did some ter
rible mulling and poor playing. The see
ond baseman generally turned two OF
three somersNults before he got ready t.
throw the ball.
The result Of the game was most graf
flying to the Standards and their friends
as their victory is over "crack' club
The following is the score:
