The PHILOSOPHY OF FMIxTUREs.-Much
questioning has been made first and
last, especially by hygienisls, about the
propriety Of mixing different materials
In cooking. 1t is strongly urged that
i'm the perfect preparation of dishes they
should consist of simples only. II this
idea be strictly carried out, the science
of cookery would mostly be done away
with. The only exceptions would be in
the processes of parching and roasting,
for the plainest breads and mushes cam
not be made without an admixture Of
water. We think it would be very
difficult to prove that it would be any
less objectionable to dilute natures per-
feet preparations with water than to
mingle them with each other. Further,
the same principle applies to the ming
ling two or more kinds Of food at the
same meal, for it Is no worse to mix
them in the mouth or in the stomach
than in the cooking. OF course, 1t is
possible to make a whole meal of one
kind of food and enjoy it. When re-
striction upon gOrmandizing is neces-
sary, 1t might be best to resort to this
device. In ordinary cases, however,
we think people are better nourished
and have their digestive powers more
thoroughly brought into action to have
both fruits and grains, ard several Of
them at the same meal. The practice
of many of our best hygienists comedies
with this opinion. We are speaking
now of well people. The sick, of course,
have their diet as well as their general
treatment prescribed by their physi-
clan.
1t should be remembered, however,
that when different materials are min
gled, the cooking should be sufficient
for the hardest, whichever that may be.
In these mixtures of rye and Indian
corn, the cooking should be sufficient
cooked very long time.-Science Of
Health.

To ALL, particularly invalids, spring
is a trying season. Indications of sick
ness should at once be attended TO. Fa-
tai diseases may be caused by allowing
the bowels to become constipated, and
the system to remain in a disOrdered
condition, until the disorder has time to
develop itself. An ounce of prevention
is worth pound of cure, is an old and
truthful saying. Therefore, we advise
all who are troubled with the COM
plants now very Observation-Disclosures,
Indigestion, disordered liver, want of
appetite, nausea, or feverish skin, to
take, without delay, Schenck's Man.
drake Pills. We know of no remedy so
harmless and decisive in its action. 1t
at once strikes at the root of the disease
and produces healthy tone to the sys-
TEN. People never need suffer from
any disease arising from a disordered
condition of the liver if they would take
this excellent medicine when they feel
the first indications of the malady. Fa.
miles leaving home for the summer
months should take three or four boxes
of these pills with them. They have an
almost instantaneous effect. They will
relieve the patient of headache in one or
two hours, and will rapidly cleanse the
liver of surrounding bile, and will eff
fectually prevent a bilious attack. They
are sold by all druggists.

Burning Gas from Wood and Petro-
leum.-The process of Messrs. Date and
Eichbaum for making Illuminating gas
is sufficiently novel and interesting TO
warrant the following description of
the system lately introduced into the
town of Ingersoll, Ont. The retOrt
benches (threes) here in use have some
differences from the arrangement
usual for coal gas. The upper retOrt
is provided with an inner or interior
retOrt of cast iron, into which regula-
ted supply OF crude petroleum is fed by
an air-cOmpressiDg device. The ope-
ratOr having thus perfect control of the
amount of oil introduced, gas of any
desired candle power can be made.
The charging of the retOrts and the
operations in the process are as fol-
lows: One of the lower retOrts is
charged with $50 pounds of ordinary
cord wood, and as soon as gas begins
to be evOIved-which is almost instant
ly-by means of suitably arranged
piresand valves the wood gas is thrown
into the upper retOrt, in which it comes
in contact with the heavy vapors
evolved from the petroleem. The two
gases thus commingled are then passed
over heightened heated surface, the
resultant product being fixed or per-
manent gas of any desired illumIna-
ting power, leaving little or no resi-
dunn. The charcoal resulting from
the process is declared to more than
pay for the wood employed. -.

ONE Sabbath day, Bridget was left at
home, to take care of the baby, of whom
she was very fond. A neighbor's child,
about five months older, was brought in
to remain while the family were at
church, who seemed disposed to take
the little ones toys away from it. This
annoyed Bridget very much, and when
her mistress came home, she ex-
claimed
"Oh, dear, Mrs. C.. 1 pity any

DISEASE MEANS SOMETHING WRONG.-
Disease means tcdnt Of ease, and when-
ever found it is a sure sign that some
thing is wrong outside the body or in
side of it. Discomfort is one Of the
earliest signs We have of its approach,
and therefore the most valuable. Pain
is later one, more solicitous, perhaps,
but none the less kind in its intentions,
for all of that. They both warn us that
something is somewhere wrong, and
mean that sickness will surely Overtake
us, unless we see where the wrong is.
When found, the mischief which has
been done should be at once corrected,
and its return must be prevented by
avoiding i'm the future that which first
produced it.

CUTTING OFF LOWER LIMBs.-It is a
very common error, and a very injuri-
Gus one to cut off large limbs near the
BODY of a tree. We meet with mutilated
fruit trees all over the country which
have suffered in this way from the use
of axe or saw. Forest trees that are hol-
low, furnishing habitatiOns in their
trunks for squirrels and other animals
and birds, should teach a lesson show
ing the danger and folly of removing
large limbs from the trees trunk. Rot
ting is almost certain to follow, for the
wound is too large to heal over, and
sufficient care is seldom taken to cover
the surface with sufficient protection to
keep out moisture i'm the atmosphere.
And besides, the growing tree itself
keeps the wound moist. The conse-
quence is decay sets in and eventually
the tree becomes rotten at the heart,
and the whole becomes injured and
loses much of it's vitality.
GRAFTNd THE CRAZE VINE.-A cor
respondent of the Elmira IN. W Far
mer's Club gives the following mode of
grating the grape vine: The cut
should be made in the stock by thin
chisel, not more than three-fOurths of
an inch wide, on one side of the stock,
and clear across it if it is small. If the
STOCK Is two or more inches in diameter
then the cut must be only part way
across. Grasp the stock and bend it
back as the cut is made by the chisel.
When so bent insert the scion, then let
the stock straighten into place, hy
which the graft will be firmly held.
The graft should be put in as soon as
the buds start in spring; needs no wax
or other plaster, though 1t will do no
hurt to apply soft clay mud, Of course
returning the earth taken off in making
the graft, and If thought best, slightly
banking up, but not above the terminal
bud of graft.

DETECTIVE OF THINGS WHICH FAVOR
DIsEAsE.-Now, there are many little
monitors by which these outside condi-
tions favorable to disease are detected,
the chief one, or at least the one relied
upon as much as any other, is the smell.
Whenever substances which have been
alive become dead, and are undergoing
decay, little particles of them break
away from the main mass, float in the
air, come in contact with the nOstrils,
and we smell them. These vapOrs
which are bred by decay in decomposing
substances, are poisons and, like all
other poisons, little absorbed will con-
taminate the health of the body, while
more will so much affect the health as
to produce sickness and even death.

MaQsetisation of Hmen,te Titanic
IronsfOneJ J.-Dr. Il. L. PhipsOn says (:
sSome fine specimens of ilmenite hav-
ing been sent to my laboratory from
Norway, it seemed good opportunity
to investigate the magnetic proper
ties of this mineral. The composition
of that which served in my expert
ments was; Titanic acid, 24'60; pro-
tOxide of iron, 1910; Fe Ss.. 2-06; man
ganese, trace silicic acid, 1-24. Total,

Its specific gravity was 4-s. and it ac-
ted with tOlerable energy upon the
magnetic needle. From the inspection
of this action l concluded that it was
possessed of a very considerable num-
Der of poles in close proximity to each
other, so that scarcely two closely ad-
jacent parts acted in the same manner
upon the north pole of the needle ;
hence it was evidently built up by a
mass of crystals. An elongated rec
tangular piece of this mineral was sep
arated by q blow of the hammer; 1t
measured II inches in length and was
about inch broad. This was placed

extremity, which it certainly had not
before, and was accordingly suspended

quiet corner of the laboratory. 1t pOin

returned to that position when devia-

weeks but one morning l found 1t

lost its acquired magnetism entirely,
having retained it for rather more than
a month.
This loss occurred rather suddenly,
and | believe that it conceded with a
magnetic storm of some intensity which
happened about the time. If these ex-
periments could be continued by some
who have more time to devote to them.
they might lead to some interesting re-
suits. 1t is possible that some mine
rails that show action upon the needle
might be made magnetic i'll the above

A UNITED STATES ship once sailed
into the harbor Of Naples, and the king
and glittering party of noblemen
came off to visit her. To the honest
Yankee sailor-eyes, that could see no
other sign of royalty than gold lace,
one laced man was as much of king as
another; and as one of the royal party
on the deck tripped and disappeared, a
sailor stepped up to an officer, and

briefly:

RADItAL kNlHl SlASM On PAPER.
To THE EDITOR OF THE TINES In the
Giobe-Democrat OF Monday, the 18th, a
correspondent writing from this place
says that General Logan. in his speech
delivered at Carbondale last Saturday, al
luded to Hon. W. j. Allen in the most
"scathing manner Suchis not the tact.
Men of undOubted yeracity who were
present at LOgan's harangue say that
he did not allude To Judge Allen,
either directly or indirectly. The bitter
Radicals hereabouts were diving to have
Logan attack Judge Allen, but the for
mer knew better than TO do so. The
Giobe-Democrat correspondent at this
place Is wild young man OF seventeen or
eighteen years OF age, and his statements
are often very unreliable. la fact. the
young gentleman on some occasions
stoops TO deliberate lies. and il it were
not for his age and certain other circum-
stances by which lac is surrounded, he
would be severity repremanded by the
lovers Of truth and fair play.
He tells another untruth III his article.
II says there were upwards OF 1900 peo-
pie To hear Logan, when the most en-
thusiastic Republicans admit that 900
will cover the number ia attendance. In
deed, one or two Of Iogan's warmest
friends declare in disgust that 500 would
cover the number. When it is remem-
bered that twO-thirds of the audience
consisted of negroes, women and chill
dren, the disgust Of the Radicals is not
to be wondered at OLD CITIZEN.
