The Prevailing Disease of America.

The disease receives different names In va

We advise those who have the following
symptoms TO use an effective remedy, and
eradicate the disease from the system: There
Is generally dull pain in the head, with
dizziness al times, foul breath, bad taste In
the mouth, irregular bowels, poor appetite
and imperfect digestion, distressed, all gone

pectoration; then wasting away OF the flesh,
finally night sweats, and soon death closes

EngIand's Big Ship.

On the 29th of this month, If nothing
goes wrong in the meantime, there will
be launched at Portsmouth the most
powerful iron-clad ship ever construct
ed. This is the ship Inflexible. She
may be considered as the latest result
of the efforts made to prove that ship
may be built strong enough to resist the
most powerful guns. The five most
powerful ships now in existence are the
Monarch, which has an armor 10 inch
es thick, and which carries guns of 20
tons each; the Thunderer, which has
IL inches of armor and guns of SO
tons Peter the Great, with II inches of
armor and guns Of 30 tons; the Re-
doubtable, with II inches or armor and
guns of % tons; the Independence
with II inches of armor and 6 guns of
50 tons. But the Inflexible, which is OF
larger tonnage than any of these, has
an armor "a inches thick, and carries
Cor will carry guns of 81 tons each.
She is 500 feet long, IS feet wide; she
draws 20 feet of water, and she is ex-
pected to sail at the rate of IA knots an
hour. No ship has yet been made to
carry such immense guns as those
which will be placed on the Inflexible ;
they will discharge projectiles weigh
ing l,400 pounds, and they are loaded
by hydraulic machinery. The whole
equipment of the ship is monstrous.

A Yrain-sooshing Remedy.

The wondrous organ that crowns the edi-
fee OF man Is not only the seat OF reflection
and the home OF Ideally, but 1t Is the gov
erning center OF the nervous system. When
1t is overweight, unduly excited, or af-
fectcd by irregularities OF those bodily or
gans with which 1t most closely sympathizes,
all the nerves suffer, md the general health
Is impaired. The reason why Hostctter's
Stomach Bitters exercise such a soothing in
fuence upon the brain is, that they remove
those digestive and bilious arrangements
which react injuriously upon IL and that in
relieving irritation or weakness OF the great
sympathetic nerve which connects the stom-
ach and the brain, they benefcially affect the
latter organ as well as the former. Sound

freedom from biliousnes are insured by tins

Chloride of lead is said to be the
most powerful, safe and economical
deodorizer and disinfectant known. To
prepare il for use, on a small scale, for
ordinary purposes, take half dram
of the nitrate of lead and dissolve il in
one pint of hot water; dissolve two
drains of common salt, in two gallons
Of water and mix the solutions this
forms a solution of chloride of lead.
A cloth wet with this, and hung up in a
room filled with n fetid atmosphere,
will sweeten it instantly; and the solu-
ton thrown into a water-closet, sink or
drain, or wherever the sulphite of by
drogen and ammonium exists, or is
generated, will produce the same effect.
Ii is not carbonic acid, but the sulphite
of hydrogen and ammonium, which
are eliminated with the breath, and
through the pores of the skin of the
living body, that makes people who are
exposed to such an atmosphere so de-
pressed, and which when highly con-
centrated develops typhus poison.
Nitrate of lead Is in dry crystals,
and is sold according to quantity, at Is
to % cents per pound, which would
make several hundred gallons of the
solution of chloride Of lead. And If,
after testing, il proves to be as effective
as represented, let it be published in
every newspaper throughout the land.

In the course of some notes on the
rsttlesnake, published In Forest and
Stream, DIR. j. w. Baily, of Albany, as
serts that this snake is the most slug
gish Of the snake family. ltneyer strikes
unless in self-defense, excepting just
before and after its winter sleep. OF
course, the rattlesnake 3 idea OF self-de-
Tense is rather broad. Thus, il a per-
son step upon il by the purest accident
the snake will make no allowance, but
strikes the intruder on the spot. To
strike, however, il must be i'm close coil,
with It's head erect. 1t is capable Of
springing only little more than half
its length, unless il be lying on an in
clined plane then, by supporting itself
entirely on its tail, 1t can spring much
further. Hogs attack the rattlesnake
with impunity, the effect Of the poison
being probably neutralized by thick
layer OF adipose tissue. DIR. Baily is
able TO contradict, from his own expert
ence, the statement that serpents do not
move about at night; he has often,
when riding by moonlight, seen them
gliding through the grass. The author
SAYS that, wien the venom OF a SER
pent has entered the circulation, all
remedies are unayailing He has seen
freshly killed chicken split open and
applied to the wound with good results.
In such cases the flesh of the chicken
turns green and putrid where it
comes in contact with the virus. The
most certain remedy, however, is whis-
Ky or brandy used in large quantities
say quart-immediately. Intoxication
is not exhibited until the poison is coun-
teracted. Sweet oil, taken in doses Of
several ounces, is also etfectual. Sports
men camping in Texas are accustomed,
after pitching their tent, to spread
around il hair lariat. The short hairs
irritate the snakes belly as he attempts
TO cross the lariat, and he retreats.
