Mr.. Sampson Gamgee, Surgeon to the Queens
Hospital, Birmingham, in short article (Lqscef,
June 10, 1876 calls attention to the subject Of
preserving ice in case of sickness. His practice
for some years has been to cut piece of flannel
about nine inches square, and secure it by ligs-
ture around the mouth Of an ordinary tumblcr,
so as to leave c1p-shsped depression of flannel
within the tumbler to about half its depth. In
the flannel cup SO constructed pieces Of ice may

of flannel four to five inches square be used a.

with comparatively open meshes, is preferaoie,
the water easily drains through u, and tne icc
is thus kept quite dry. When good flannel VIII
close texture is employed small noie mu osts 10
wise it holds the water, and facilitates the melt
ing of the ice which is, nevertheless, preserved
much longer than in the naked cup OF tum6ler.
In . room 60 deg. f, DIR. G. made the follow
ing experiment with four tumblers, placing IN
each two ounces of ice, broken into pieces of the
average size of sucking. In tumbler No. l the
ice was loose. 1t had all melted in two hours
and fifty five minutes. In tumbler No. the ice
was suspended in the tumbler in cup made, ~
above described, of good Welsh flannel. In five
hours and q quarter the flannel cup was more
than half filled with water, with some pieces of
ice floating in it; in another hour and quarter
(six hours from the commencement the flannel
cup was nearly filled with water, and no ice re-
manned. In tunibler No. 3 the ice was suspended
the material as in No. q; but in No. 3 hole, ca.
pable of admitting quill pen, had been made in
the bottom Of the flannel cup, with the effect of
protracting the total liquefcation of the two
ounces of ice to period Of eight hours and three
quarters In tumbler No. two ounces of ice
were placed in q flannel cup made, as above des

Cholera Infantum.

An eminent physician in Philadelphia furnish
90 the pnblic with the following rules in the treat
ment Of cholera infantum: Keep the child cool by
means of frequent and protracted bathing in water
cooler than the atmosphere. If the temperature of
the atmosphere isyery high-say about from 30 to
90degrses Fahrenheit, if it is close and Cypress
ive-tbe bathing should be repeated number
of times in the course of the day, the water for
this purpose being regulated to about 65 or 20
degrees. Sometimes, instead of immersing the
child in the water it may suffice to sponge it CO.
piously. Thus treated, the child viii feel cool
and comfortable for several hours, after which
the process may be repeated, there being no
cause for apprehension whatever that the little
one will be weakened thereby, Gas is sometimes
enormously supposedly even If kept in the water
for half an hour at time. The object of this
bathing is to substitute q surrounding medium,
the temperature of which may be regulated at
will, for the atmosphere whose temperature is
not 80 readily modified.
As to the diet the most important article of food
is milk, accompanied, after the tenth month of the
infants age, with small quantity of crushed
water cracker soaked in the milk in the form of
"pap." Great care should be taken not to over
feed babies during the warm season, as the func-
tion of digestion at such time is just as much
averse to being overworked as are the functions
of the muscles.
The milk that is used should be as fresh as it
can possibly be had. If COW could be MIXED
every time that the baby needs feeding, it would
be all the better. At all events the milk should
be freshly drawn from the udder at least twice o
day, and to facilitate the preservation should be
Immediately boiled, and then cooled and
kept on ice in closely covered vessels. All the
water, too, that is given to infants for drink
should first be boiled, and, when cooled and
settled, carefully poured off from the top, bot
tied, and kept on ice. The process of boiling
purifies and distills the water, and destroys the
vitality, to great extent at least of the para.
sites it may have contained. But to do still
more towards neutralizing the injurious effects
of the water, a few drops Of pure Cognac brandy
should be added to every drink given the infant.
Sometimes few drops of lemon juice (if the
child is year old or over) may be added; or q
little camomile tea in the proportion Of q tea
spoonful to wineglassful of water. A very lit
tie sugar also should always be added.
OF water thus modified the child may drink
without let or hindrance guarding only against
too large quantities at time. In fact the water
thus given will aid in cooling the blood from
within, and diminishing its tendency towards
congestion, even as the lotions and bathing ex-
ert this effect from without.

A Km0ttV Text.

There was once an itinerant preacher in West
Tennessee, who, possessing considerable natural
eloquence, had gradually become possessed Of
the idea that he was also an extraordinary Bib
lical scholar. Under this delusion he would very
frequently, at the close of his sermons, ask any
member Of his congregation who might have q
"knotty text to unrayel, to speak it, and he
would explain at once, however much it might
have troubled less distinguished divines. On
one occasion, in large audience, he was partic.
ularly pressing for some one to PROFOUND q text
but no one presenting to do SO, he was about to
sit down without any opportunity Of showing
"his learning" when a chap hack by the door
announced he had Bible matter of great con.
Germ which he desired to be enlightened upon
The preacher, quite animatedy, professed his
willingness and ability, and the congregation
was in great excitement.
'What want to know, said the outsider, sis
whether jobs turkey was q hen or q gobbler.n
Tho "expouuder" looked confused, and the
congregation Uttered, as the questioner capped
the climax by exclaiming in Q loud voice

for difficult passages" was abandoned.

What Killed Him.

A few years ago, when Judge Gould, of Troy,
lately deceased, was holding court in that city,
o prisoner was being tried before him for willful
murder, in causing the death of . man by pis-
toll shot. An eminent physician and surgeon
was on the stand as witness for the defence.
The prisoners counsel, an adroit lawyer, at
tempeted to show that the man, who lived some
little time after being shot, might have died from
some other cause, aud examined his witness after
this style: ,....- 49,.
doctor, would not such thing cause death ?
"Oh, yes, sir"
"Well, doctor, might not this man have died
from such and such causesP
"Oh, yes, he might"
"This is quite sufficient for us" exclaimed the
defendants counsel, with an air of triumph,
twirling his eye-glass.
Judge Gould turned in his seat, bent his large,
keen, penetrating black eye full on the witness,
and said o little sharply:
doctor, you have now told US what might
have caused this mans death; what did cause
his deathf"
"The bullet, sir" answered the witness. This
ended the case.

SYRUPs FOR SODA wArER-wHAr WE DRINK.
The New York Graphic says: The syrups sold
at many soda water fountains demand some at
tsntion from those having charge of the public
health. Will some philanthropist and investi-
eating spirit with abundance Of leisure mako an
assay Of these fragrant mixtures, and give the re-
suit to the publicf The very latest Intelligence
from the soda fountain reads that some red syr-
ups tinge the glasses, and what is more sugges-
tive and suspicious, the color does not wash off.
As glass dye it seems success, but there is too
much hint of q mordant in this phenomenon to
warrant its plentiful introduction into the hui.
man stomach. The sugar used in the syrups is
heating for the system, and tends strongly to
acidity of the stomach, but the additional dye
and drug used to counterfeit strawberry or cher
~ must serve as vigorous aids in promoting ouI
National dyspepsia.

Sundry Recipes.

Cold in the head.-At last cure is found for
cold in the head DR.. Poillon, French physi-
clan, says it can be cured by inhaling hartshorn.
The inhalation by the nose should be seven OF
eight times in i've minutes.
Remedy for burns.-An exchange says that by

will Immediately subside. By leaving it on one
hour the wound is healed, as has been demon
strated on several occasions. 1t will not cost
much to try it.
A health producing vegetable.-The acid Of
the tomato stimulates the liver to work off the
surplus bile of summer. 1t is nutritious article
of diet and can be prepared in so many different
ways that it never becomes monotonous to the
palate, or never need to be SO, if proper care and
ingenuity are exercised.
Relief for o troublesome cough.-Gargling the
throat with tspid water will often afford relief
from q troublesome cough. The ordinary cough
mixtures-troches, lozenges and other nostrums,
when injudiciousy used, load the stomach and
seriously interfere with digestion, thus indirect
ly increasing the evil which they were designed
to cure.
Salt as tooth powder.-If, while examining
under the microscope, drop of water contain
ing infusoris you introduce grain of salt, tho
effect seen will be the instantaneous death of
the creatures, The knowledge of this property
of salt may be turned to account in several
ways; among the rest it suggests an excellent
tooth powder. If it be true, as asserted, that
the matter which is formed on the teeth is the
receptacle of animalcule, and that these arc the
real agents in producing carious teeth, dip q
moistened brush in common salt, and you have
at once the cheapest and most preservative of
tooth powders.
