with intestinal parasites. To say the
least, they have no generic relation to
the trichina spiralis, although they
might readily be mistaken for It by one
who was not an expert in microscopic
inquiry. DIR. Appel thought it very
probable that these parasites had been
acquired by the shad this year by feed
Ing upon the offal and sewage emptied
into the Hudson by New York City; but
this, he observed, was yet mere un-
verified conjecture"
This is more hopeful view of the
case. It is a truth long known to the
scientific that the tricocephali are COM
mon to nearly all animals used for food,
and no fatal consequences have re-
suited from them. We do not think
the alarm is sufficient to drive the
human family to milk, oat meal and an
exclusive vegetable diet. Man Is ON
nivoroas, meat is partly his natural
diet. and by proper cooking, the human
family will yet worry along and live
their allotted years Notwithstanding
the microscopic discoveries of trichin@.
The fatal results of many hundred
cases. however, from this terrible dis
ease should be a warning needed by
every one, and raw meats, and even
half-cOoked meats, should be banished
from every table as dangerous. Science
may yet demonstrate to US that the
ancient Jews, who SO carefully marked
the animals which were "clean'' and
fit for food, were even wiser than the
enlightened generation of this later
century.-Chicago Inter- Ocean.

were agreed to-. In the House, Mr.. Potter
presented resolution, directing an investiga-

alleged frauds committed in Florida and Lou

considerable discussion. the Speaker decided
that the preamble aud resolution presented
q question of the highest privilege,

was taken from this decision and motion to

him that he might offer an amendment, which
he desired read. Mr.. Potter refused to allow the
amendment to be read, but asked a. to its pur-
port, and on subsequently ascertaining that 1t
embraced the question Of alleged frauds in

ground that It was not germane to the resolu-
ton, and would be of no practical effect.

One of the oldest and best known,
as well as best lighthouse keepers on
the Atlantic coast, is q woman, Kath-
leen Andre Moore, Of Black Rock
Lighthouse, near Bridgeport, Ct. She
is sixty-tive, has tended the lighthouse
lamp for fifty years and lives alone in
her little house with two dogs and q
net lamb. She says there used to be
many more wrecks than there are now
on her coast, before sailing ships were
replaced by steamers. She is as active
us girl of fifteen. There are several
hundred printed rules for the instruc-
ton of lighthouse and live-saving sta
tiou-keepers, and this bright old wo-
man knows them all by heart. She is
q great reader, and prizes particularly
Shakespeare, the British poets and
books Of travel and history. She had
more than 1000 visitors in her little
house last summer. Chicago Tribune.

The Magical Beauty Wash.

SOME of your elder readers may re-
member that several years ago wom-
an calling herself Mime. Rachel, who
had long carried on in London the
business Of making ladies g beautiful
forever by means of applying to their
faces certain washes and powders, was
convicted of fraud and .'sent up for
five years. 1t now appears that Rachel
-" which her real name is Leverson''
had served out her sentence. and had
again gone into business in Duke street,
Gr0svenOr Square, where she opened
perfumer's shop and announced herself
as "Arabian Perfumer to the Queen"
Attracted by this imposing title, Mrs.
Cecilia Maria Pearse, wife of well-to-
do stOck-brOker, one dav walked into
Nine. Rachers shop, and thus took the
first step in . path which led her to
much trouble, and which finally brought
her into the Central Criminal Court, at
the Old Bailey, rs witness against
Nine. Rachel, on an indictment charg-
ing that person with obtaining from
her two necklaces and other articles of
jewclry with intent to defrsud. Mrs.
Pearse, who testified that she was
"twenty-three years of age and the
daughter of ignor Mario" bought
"some tooth-powder" and j" some vio-
let-powder;'' and finally Rachel showed
her q bottle containing "a wash
which "came from the East" and
which would "keep the skin in
healthy state" It was expensive, FL
per bottle; and several bottles would be
necessary to thoroughly beautify the
complexion.
Mrs. Pearse, on q second visit, bought
"a worth of this magical preparation,
but on hearing Rachel callit enamel
ing" she became alarmed and said she
would not take it.
Nonsense" cried Rachel, .they
all do it! You know Lady Dudley,
don't you, the most beautiful woman
in Eng1andp She has used my wash
from q child, and l am now finishing
her with this process. l will finish you
in the same way, If you like; you shall
be as beautiful as Lady Dudley. and my
fee is only 1000 guineas."
Mrs. Pearse felt herself strongly
tempted, but she did not yield at once,
although Rachel greatly impressed her
by pointing to bust of the great &C.
tress, Rachel, in her shop, and telling
her that they were cousins.
Some months afterward Mrs. Pearsc,
who all the while had been hankering
to be made Is Handsome a. Lady

PerniciOus Literature.

PRESIDENT PORTER and ex-President
Woolsey, of Yale, Profs. Wayland and
Walker, DIR. Leonard Bacon, and ex-
Gov. English, with other eminent citi-
zens of Connecticut, have called alton
ton to extensive issues of cheap and
nasty reading for boys, which are care
fully circulated through the country.
We have seen list of such books Of
fered for sale, and they certainly de-
serve the strongest censure and the
widest warning. They are not, in the
ordinary sense, improper books, but
they are demoralizing, and worse than
worthless. They are stories of rascals,
vagabOnds and adventures. Their he
roes are sharpers and tramps. A true
and generous manhood, modesty, fidel-
ity, purity, prudence, economy, tenn
perance, sobriety, industry, are COW
cred with ridicule. Their scenes are
disreputable resorts; their songs and
talk are of the most wretchedly witless
kind. They are low, unclean and un-
mannerly, and a generation of boys
feeding upon such literature would be q
race of Artful Dodgers and Charley
Bateses.
Boys love amusement, adventure and
excitement, audit is a Mephistophelian
craft which seizes upon this natural
taste to pander to their degradation.
In this busy country parents are SO en-
gagged that they are often ignorant of
the books which their children read,
and before they are aware of it a NOR
bid and vulgar appetite may have mas
tered their sons. The boy who is con-
stantly familiar in the books he reads
with rowdies and swells, whose idea of
''life'' is coarse dissipation, and to
whom swearing, gambling and de-
bauchery are "seeing the elephant, {"
who is taught that the diligent and
faithful workman is q goody-goody,
and that peaceful home life is hum
drum stupidity, is boy who will nat
urally admire Fisk, and believe that
Tweed was a jolly soul and friendly to
the poor, hundredfold better than
half of those who condemn him, and
that the only fault with the swindling
Presidents and Treasurers Of compa-
MES and corporations and savings
banks is that they let themselves be
found out.
This kind of cheap reading is poi
soned fountain, inviting the thirsty to
drink at every corner. Such books are
moral dram drinking, and the good
sense that seeks public order by regu-
lating groggeries should warn and
guard our youth from the pollution of
such literature.-Harper's Weekly.

Six years ago Julia Leblanc, daugh-

teriously disappeared and was never again
seen alive. A few days ago q negro, while
shooting along the bank of the Mississippi,
twenty miles below Leblanc's home, saw q
skin floating down the stream, ard, on over
hauling 1t, found that it contained a female
skeleton, which proved to be that Of the miss
Ing girl. The theory is that she was stran-
gled and placed in the skiff, which was then
tied to the bank Of q creek leading to the
Mississippi, where the underbrush concealed
1t from observation; that there the boat re-
NAMED until the rope rotted, when It noated
down stream and was secured as stated.
