"HE NOSE BATH.-In variety of
nasal affections, catarrh, colds in the
head, Inflammation ofthe nasal passages,
nose-bleed, etc., this remedy proves
beneficial: Water should be snuffed
freely through the nostrils and drawn
back, if possible, so that it is elected by
the mouth. This should be repeated
several times day, when the object is
to tone the debilitated mucous membrane
of the nose, and should be used cool or
cold. When, as in liberated surfaces,
the design is to cleanse them, it may be
used tepid, following with cold water
for a tonic effect.

1t is claimed for it that it is propelled

OF fuel is given out when the carbon of
the fuel unites with the oxygen of the

of linseed oil, to be melted together in
an iron pot. One part of native oxide
of copper and one of sulphuric acid are
then to be added, after which the com

WHAT SHE ASKED TOMMY.-He was
named Thomas and she was named
Jane. They sat on Central Hotel balcony
for three long hours one day recently.
AS they sat down Thomas took one of
James hands. She allowed that sort of
thing to go on without a word of pro-
test, and the flaxen-haired youth finally
seized the other one.-They talked and
talked. and looked down upon the
street, and sighed, and the hours slipped
away. At the end of the third hour
she said:
'Tommy. dearest, want to ask you
something"
"Ask me a hundred-a thousand-a
million things" he exclaimed in reply.
''Well, Tommy, I've got an awful
cold in my head" she continued, land
if L drew one of my hands away and
wiped my nose would you think l was
mad? Ive either got to do that,
Tommy, or let my nose wipe itself. just
one wipe, Tommy, and then you may
have it back"
Tommy released her hand, though he
hated to, and her nose was softly and
duly wiped.

Prof. Gdrrod in a recent lecture
brought into prominence some WELL
known physiological facts which
deserve more attention than they usual
ly receive. In expiration the carbonic
acid is thrown to a considerable distance
from the nostrils, and is, consequently,
not taken back by the next expiration.
If at night, however, the bedclOthes
happen to fall over the face, the current
of carbonic acid is obstructed and is in
hailed again and again, producing mis-
chieyous effects. Air should not enter
the lungs at temperature much below
that of the blood, and the habit of breath
through the nose in cold weather should
be cultivated. The protoplasmic vitality
of the body led, in the opinion of the
Professor, to the oxidation of pabulum
supplied and the formation of carbonic
acid, just the same as muscular work.

sixty more for the watch-that's three

DOMESTIC.

A FARMERS SAVOY STEw.-A Cana
dian journal remarks; SIN Canada we
have learned something from the
French about cheap living. Perhaps
our pot-pie came from them, because
they are famous for their rich, whole
some stews. Take a joint of any kind
OF fresh meat, some like beef, others
like veal, 1 like mutton, because my
father kept long wool of mutton sheep.
In the city you can get such joint for
a dime, and in the country it ought not
to cost more. In all cases put the meat
in cold water, add enough water to
cover it, and boil until it is tender, for
beef and mutton say two hours, for veal
say one hour. Add salt and pepper.
About half an hour before serving, put
in six potatoes, pared and quartered,
and let them boil with the meat. In
the meantime prepare the dumplings
by taking a quart of flour, a table,
spoonful of butter, and two teaspoon
fuls of sifted baking powder; wet with
milk enough to make stiff batter, so it
will drop from spoon; ten minutes
before serving drop the batter into the
stew, spoonful at a time, until all is
in, and then cover tightly and boil ten
minutes. If the meat is not sufficiently
fat, add butter, but not otherwise; it is
generally rich enough without butter.
The batter thickens the gravy as well
as makes the dumpling. Serve, of
course, on large platter. Here you
have meat and the juice of the meat,
bone and the juice of the bone, potatoes
and flour, all healthy and nourishing,
good for brain, muscle and bone.
Enough for large family does not cost
twenty-five cents; all like it; and We
at home have this stew at least twice a
week."

CAPER SAUCE.-Melt q tablespoonful
of butter, and mix smoothly with it a
tablespoonful of flour; add " hite pepper
and salt, keep it on the stove, and by
degrees stir in almost pint of hot milk.
When the sauce thickens, add capers,
or if you have none, use picked nastur-
tium seed. 1t the addition of lemon
juice is desired. omit the milk, using in
its stead boiling water. When the sauce
is taken from the fire, stir in the lemon
!juice-abOut a Disqualification
with the yolk of an egg. Although
caper sauce is the proper thing for
boiled mutton, it is very good with a
plain drawn butter, substituting in
place of capers slices of hard boiled eggs.
The liquor in which the mutton was
boiled with little pearl barley will
furnish an excellent broth. Let it cool,
and remove the fat from the surface be-
tore using.

SCIENTIFIC.

Fires Caused by Wdter.-The familiar
lecture-table experiment Of "touching
off q cannon with an icicle" has its
counterpart, no less paradoxical, in the
actual world, where fires are sometimes
Though not frequently caused by
water. In the experiment alluded to, a
tiny piece of potassium by its energetic
combination with the oxygen in the
icicle, inflames the liberated hydrogen.
and thus lights the priming of the can
non. The experiments is striking one,
calculated to make one long remember
OF heat, and that when two bodies have
a rery intense mutual affinity, they may
combine with such fervOr as to cause
combustion. Some time ago the Poly
technic Review called attention to a
case in which fire was caused indirectly
by doOd-the rising water floating a
cotton bale that was in warehouse
cellar until it caught a gas flame and set
fire TO the floor, and thus caused the loss
of the building. Recently at the Ame-
lunk fire in Brooklyn, there was a
more direct example OF fire caused by
water, by the energetic combination OF
the water raised by the high tide and
wind, with some quicklime, the slacken.
ing being so vigorous as to cause ignition
of the boxes or barrels containing it,
and thus causing a serious fire. These
and similar lessons should teach us
greater care IN storage and greater
watchfulness. 1t is very much doubted
whether any lessons or any losses will
ever teach Americans to build fre-proof.
Spontaneous combustion of damp hay
is not unfrequent; coal, sometimes, if
not well enough ventilated, gets to
smouldering on shipboard: grain is
liable to the same danger. Cotton waste
and rags, etc., can be ignited if the
proper conditions of moisture and con-
finement exist; and where these are not
found spontaneous combustion, caused
by rapid oxidation of animal oils, is
quite ready to aid in swelling the list
of insurance losses. Not entirely
apropos of our title heading may be
mentioned fires caused by the rays OF
the sun, concentrated by means of
druggists bottles, engravers' globes,
aquaria, or even bubbles in glass panes
falling on infiammable materials.
The water, acting as refracting ma
terial, causes the damage.

OF all men whose names have been men,

In the first place his appointment would be a
handsome cumpliment-in an indirect way
30 the German Government. His eminent
heroism and admirable personal bearing in
Paris, especially toward the Germans there
domiciled during the Franco-Prussian war,
made him greatly liked at the Court OF
Emperor William BY temperament and ex
perience he is singulary adapted to the duties
If an ambassador. His Judgment seems to
be equal to his courage-which is always re-
liable, available and calm. Personal reasons
would make Us prefer Hartrauft-who would
make an excellent representative of our in
situations, especially in view of the fact o.
his very self -cuntained and judicious charac-
teristics and his thorough knowledge of Ger
man; but under all the circumstances of the
situation Washburnes nomination would be
most appropriate aud satisfactory

we reproduce the following from the Lyon
County Ttm,s of Wednesday,
The ore from the Schee mine, which was
worked in the Raulsdell mill, last week
yielded over 81, $50 in gold. Only twelve
cons were worked The yield was therefore
more than sl3O per ton This is what Dir.
Scheel calls ''ttlird class ore" and is the
third lot of ore from this mine milled during
the past tive months. The first lot Was OF
two tons, ard welded S. 900 So, 900 per ton,
the second lot vas vi nine tol!S, and yielded
81, 9tt;3j, >r an average Of si,2J0 per ton.
Totals for the three lots, 81 tons, and SIS,
365 This ore has been extracted from the
rine during the last FIVE months, one nlau
being at work there besides Mr. Scheel.
This is a very splendid showing, and it is
doubtful if any other district on the Coast

assistant are still at work, extracting and
sorting ore
