Conditions ofInsanity.

NJ. Meyer, Of Hamburg, asserts that
all mental diseases fall into two great
classes. In one of these, the mental
action exhibits a state of the intellect
below the normal intelligence. and here
there is evident weakness or confusion
OF mind; this diseased condition is lido
pathic-cOmes from the brain-and if,
in case of any patient Of this class, there
appears a state OF excitement, this eI-
element indicates at once fever. In
patients of the second class, DR.. Meyer
says the mental strength is not below
the normal standard, but the intellect
ual activity is wrong in directions the
insanity in a case of this class is SYM
pathetic or reflected, that is, it does
not arise from a diseased brain, but the
cause is to be sought in some other
organ and part of the body-the organs
of generation, the digestive organs, &c.

A SIMPLE REMEDY FOR CNDERs IN
THE EYE.-Persons travelling by rail-
way, are subject to continued annoy
ance from the flying cinders. On get
ting into the eyes they are not only
painful for the moment, but are often
the cause of long suffering, that ends
in a total loss of sight. A very simple
and effective cure is within the reach
of every one, and would prevent much
suffering aud expense, were it more
generally known. 1t is simply one or
Two grains of flaxseed. These may be
placed in the eye without injury or pain
to that delicate organ, and shortly they
begin to swell and dissolve a g~lutinous
substance that covers the ball of the
eye, enveloping any foreign substance
that may be in it.. The irritation or
cutting of the membrane is thus pre-
vented, and the annoyance may soon
be washed out. A dozen of these grains
slowed away in the vest pocket may
prove, in ali emergency, worth their
number in gold.

OYSTER SOUP FOR INvALIDs.-Procure
the largest oysters; remove half a dozen
from the can, II at a time, to a plate.
Insert a fork into the solid flesh, and
with a sharp knife make a slit up and
down and across the abdominal cavity {;
slip the point Of the knife under the
dark mass thus thus exposed and thor
oughly remove it, being as nice about it
as you would in dressing any other
fish, for the abdominal foulness of one
is as unsuited to the weak stomach as
the other. Put into stew pans; pour out
proper share of liquor, a pint of water
and half gill of cream; add salt; pepper
if there be no fever; a t%easpoonful of
lemon juice, or two of pure cider vim
egar. Bring just to the boil and pour
into a dish. Break In cracker or nicely
toasted thin slice OF light bread. A little
fresh butter makes it richer.

COUGHING IN CHURCH.-The attend
ants Of churches where coughing is liza
Bile to be followed by critical remarks
from the minister should know that
coughing is not such a necessity as many
imagine. 1t partakes of the nature of a
habit. There is no need for coughing at
every little irritation in the throat. You
will be surprised on making IN effort to
suppress your cough to see how little
coughing you can get along with. Were
a man to stand threatening you with a
club or pistol and Offering to blow your
brains out at the first cough you would
find that the will power is most efiica-
cious in suppressing these bronchial in
surrectiOns. A French surgeon used to
say whenever he entered the wards of
the hospital, ''The first patient who
coughs will be deprived of food to-day"
And very few then coughed. DIR.
Brown-Sequard says that coughing may
be prevented by pressing on the nerves
Of the lips in the neighborhood of the
nose, by pressing in the neighborhood
of the ear, and by pressing very hard
on the top OF the mouth.

DOMESTIC.

TALLow CANDLEs.-According to my
practical observations, 1t il both safe
and economical TO use candles for ordi-
nary purposes in the house. | would
not like TO depend entirely upon them
for lighting either the parlOr or dining
room; but Tor going from n apart
ment to another, or into the cellar, /
think they are far more convenient and
safe than Kerosene lamps. The annual
breakage Of lamp chimneys will cost
more Than the expense of candles, and
every person will allow that lamps are
dangerous for children TO handle; too
many sad casualties have occurred TO
illustrate that fact, TO need any argu-
ments 10 prove 1t. The old fashioned
tallow dips have gone by, aud given
place to the mOulds, that make uniform
smooth candles with but little trouble.
| admit that there is a liability to drop
the tallow, but that is nothing which
cannot be remedicd easily, and neither
scars or disfigures any one.
TO make candles nice, | would prefer
a set of mOulds that requires a pound
of tallow for eight candles (No. SIS, they
are called). Twist the wicks lightly.
Some soak the wicking in a solution of
two ounces of alum and two ounce of
salt, dissolved in two quarts of soft
water, for a pound of cotton wicking.
The wicking has to be measured off the
proper length and cut, before soaking ;
then dry perfectly. 1t gives a ~steadier,
clearer light. Have the tallow luke
warm when tits turned into the moulds.
These candles give a good light-sufi
cient for all domestic purpOses-and if
one is accidentally dropped, or knocked
over, there is no worse result than a
grease spot, that a little soap and water
will easily remove.
When | used to dip my candles, | al
ways prepared my wicks in the manner
mentioned, and the rule was TO have
nine wicks on a rod, and two inches
space between the wicks; have the
tallow just hot enough to allow the
finger to be held in a moment without
burning; then dip the wioks with a
steady hand, putting them in quick,
and lifting them up slowly, SO as to
keep them of equal size all the way. 1t
was hard work to dip up a years stock
in a day; but candles last longer the
older they are. Since | have commenced
running them in mOulds, / make up the
years supply in March. | a gen.
orally run four sets in a day, and one
does not seem to feel it. l should feel
lost without my tallow candles, al
though | fully appreciate the cheerful
light of the lamp for reading or sewing,
and making a room pleasant; but for
safety and convenience, the candle has
the preference by all odds.
