Hint.

Never let children go to bed with cold
feet. Indeed they never should be allow
ed to sit in the house with wet or cold feet.
Many child has died of Group whose
life might hight have been preserved by
little attention ito his feet. If a child
has been out and comes in with wet or
cold feet, take off his shoes and stock
ings, and toast its feet 10y the stove.
Grown up people may promote their
own health and comfort by drying and
warming their fect5 but whether they
attend to their own or not, it is their
duty TO attend to their children feet.

of this cake known to the majority of

an article of commerce as the common

Some persons in trying it, have not had
good luck the first time; they have
failed from the milk being too sour for

Black Teeth in Pins.

Being the cause of sickness or disease,
though very common belief among
farmers, is pronounced a most thorough
humbug by DR.. Johnson, a distinguished

ance and superstition TO knock them
out as means of cure ia sick swine.

Cement for Cracked Hoofs.

Mr.. Defay has discovered preparation
by meaSls of which sand cracks or frac-
lures in hoof or horn may he durably
cemented up. Even pieces of iron can
be securely Joined together by its means.
The only precaution necessary for its
successful application is the careful
removal of all grease by spirits of sal
ammonia, sulphide of carbon, or ether.
Mr.. Delay makes no secret of its COM
position, which is as follows: Take one
part of ccarsely powdered gum ammonia
cum and two parts gutta percha i'm pieces
the size of hazel nut. Put them in n
tin lined vessel over slow fire. Before
the thick, resinous mass gets cold, mold
it into sticks like sealing wax. The
cement will keep for years, and when
required for use it is only necessary TO
cut off sufficient quantity and remelt
it Immediately before application

to Kansas overland.

About The biggest thing the way Of
overland travel that We have heard Of
lately, has been accomplished by Mr.. v.
Williams and family, d Brooke county,
West Virgins, who will make their home
In Franklin county. Mr.. Williams took
the contract to bring through team own.
ed by Mr.. Kuhn, who has recently settled
here, and biayely concluded to bring It
and his family through across country,
not at alltefTiGed by the eleven hundred
long miles which laid before him. The
trip has been successfully accomplished
in leps than six weeks, under very agree
able circumstances, and with very happy
financial results, the sum total Of expehse
not exceeding thirty,liye dollars. Mr..
Williams is abrick.-Oilara (Ks.) Repub-
lean.
Eleven hundred miles in u little less
than six veoks--say 40 days-would give
an AyersgO Of 27I miles per day for the
team, and atotal expense Of s35, would
give sly cents per day as the coat to the
family for the journey from WCllsburg
to their new home In Kansas.
The season was remarkably favorable
for such an experiment. Such an other
would not he had, perhaps, in many
years. Then, too, the journey was made
through an agricultural country, in which
feed and provisions could be bought
cheap. Afamily carrying its own provi-
sionp, and sleeping in acovcred wagon at
night, could travel very cheap and gel
along quite comfortably during six weeks
oil such weather as we have had since
September lsl.

A Policy DEALER in New York, who
ought TO know all about it, has told a
7iituae reporter that the man who buys
lottery ticket is fool" He thinks that
u player Of policy is"u little less oil an
idiot" but Is still one in q mild degree,
becsure the odds are in the end dead
certainty against the player To show
tho reporter the chances he had as pol.
icy dealer OF making money, he said:" "A
man stakes his dollar on one out Of sew.
enty.iiye combinations, and he stands a
chance OF winning $780," This, of course,
presuppo,es honesty in the dealer in con.
ducting the deal, but as honesty is not
their distinguishing Characteristic, the
few chances the player has Of winning
anything in the end grow still fewer. All
this has been preached and published
over and over again by men who never
played policy or bought lottery ticket,
but without much effect on the credulous
investors in lotteries and policies. Per-
haps they may listen now, however, to
to the opinion OF an expert-aman who
makes his living lin very expensive
way OFtheir folly and credulity,

made Of the value Of the commerce Of the
Ohio river cities and towns? As regards
Wheeling, steubenvillc, lronton and a
number Of other important points no re.

showed That the annual commerce Of the

When he came in sight Of the fatal
pile, the wretched Servetus Frustrated
himself on The ground and for awhile was
absorbed in prayer. Rising and adyan-
cling few steps, he found himself in the
hands Of the executioner, by whom he
was made to sit on block, his feet Just
reaching the ground. His body was then
bound 10 the stake behind him by several
turns Of an iron chain, while his neck
was secured in like manner by the coils
Of hempen rope. His two books-the
onein manuscript sent Calvin in conf.
dence six or eight years before for his
strictures, and u copy Of the one lately
printed nj Vienna, were then fastened to
his waist, and his head was encirCled in
mockery with chaplet Of straw and
green twigs bestrewed with birthstone.
The deadly torch was then applied to the
fagots and flashed in his face; and the
birthstone catching, and the flames rising,
wrung from the victim such cry OF an.
guish as struck terror into the surroun.

silent, but the wood being purposely
green, a long half.hour elapsed before
he ceased to show signs Of life andsufIer-
