A HomeIy Cure for Dyspepsia.

Here is rather o curious remedy, says
Gasselt'8 Family Magazine, but IN many
cases a very certain one, for the cure Of
indigestion. It is simply the cultivation
of a habit OF chewing, while out Of doors,
different kinds Of green leaves and swal-
lowing the juice. One can always Gull
q leaf from o hedge, or bush, as one
passes. Almost all are good that are
not nauseous, such. as the ivy, or poi
sonous, as the laurel leaf. One. of the
latter, however, is o capital thing where
there is slight irritation Of the stomach.
The chewing Of leaves cures dyspepsia,
principally, 7 believe, by increasing the
flow Of the solitary juice, and partly by
the TONIC or stimulating action OF the
leaf ehewed. The leaves that occur to
meat present as most likely to be bene'
fetal are those Of the pine trees, spruce
or Scotch. fir, blackthorn, currant and
rose bushes, mint, the petals Of many
flowers, the stalks, Of mountain daisies,
the white portion Of PUSHES, the bark Of
many young trees, and the tender part
of the stalks of green wheat, oats, or al.
most any Of the larger grasses; but youl
own taste must in great easureagulde

remedy. I should say, however, that

In the Missouri below this point,
writes q Bismarck fDakota) eorrespon-
dent, is o bonanza amounting to $I10,-
900 in gold. In 1864, opposite Bis
marek, there was massacred o boat-load
of miners returning from Montana.
They had in the bottom Of their fiat or
mackinaw $40, 600. There were eight
cen miners, o woman and two girls.
They stopped O short time at Fort Bert
hold, and were there warned by T. p.
Girard against going on OF that time.
1irard was the trader OF Berthold. The
Indians down the river were bad, and
the prospect of trouble good. The mi
ners, however, declined the advice, and
thought they would push out for the
next landing. They had with them o
little cannon and plenty of arms. An
Indian afterwards related TO Girard the
story Of their fate. When they were
nearly opposite the present site OF Bis
marck they ran into an Indian trap. On
the east bank Of the river the Indians
appeared and fired q volley into the
boat. The miners steered over TO the
west side TO escape the range. Up rose
from behind O sandbank near the wa
ter's edge another and more numerous
band. The first volley killed the whole
crew except one nan wounded and the
woman and girls. The cannon was fired
once and over went the boat, drowning
the survivors. The Indians pulled the
boat ashore, found little or nothing, and
then pushed her into the stream to float
on to her wreck. Girard says he never
sees anything in the Missouri that looks
like q lost boat without thinking of the
Montana mackinaw and her gold, He
has always been on the lookout for the
wreck, as he believes the gold was so
securely boxed up that il is still intact,
and il found the treasure could be res
cued. It is somewhere between Bis
marck and the Gull, imbedded in the
sand and mud. Some dredging boat OF
lucky fisherman may drop on ii. Girard
still looks for il, and he's o sensible
man. The probability is that the hidden
bonanza Is not farfrom Bismarck.

Cigar Ships

The Baltimore Sun says: Tits doubt
less the popular impression, both IN
baltimore and elsewhere, that the cigar
shaped steamers which Mi. Winars, the
celebrated inventor who died recently,
invented were abandoned as impractical
bic soon after their first trial; but such
Is not the case. For the past thirteen
or fourteen years experiments with these
steamers have been actively carried on
in England, and voyages have been made
I'm them TO various paris OF the world,
most notably TO the North and Mediter-
ranean seas, where they have been spec
tally on trial They are perfect as tar
as speed and exemption from rolling
and pitching are concerned, and 1t is
probable that when they are sufficiently
satisfactory in other respects they Will
be brought into practical use. Mr.
Winans' idea was to have o big steam
ferry and cross tho Atlantic without re-
gard to weather, fog or Ice, with the
Regularity Of railroad trains, making the
trio i'm summer or winter in less than
ak DAVIS. An immense steamer was to
be constructed one-half larger than the
Great Eastern-l,2OO feet long-the
pioneer in this new advancement In
navigation. MI. Winans had perfect
confidence in the storm=defying quail
ties of his steamers, and, in replying to
questions concerning those qualiica-
tions, used TO say that they could stand
any weather that had eyer been made
yet. without regard to hurricanes and
cyclones, though he supposed such
could be made especially for their de-
struetion. On account Of the immense
size of these intended steamers, there
was TO be q special port Of entry in each
country.

A Strange HYdropIlobia Cure.

Many years ago Noah Hatch, of North.
cumberland, q wealthy farmer, had three
or four children bitten by o rabid dog.
On the first symptom of rabies in the
children he started for the ocean. Port
lind was the nearest point, and 1875 miles
distant, but he reached il in about
twenty hours by o frequent change d
horses, and immediately put the chill.
dren on board q sailing craft and tool
them out o short distance, and, fastening
weights TO them, three times sank them
in the sea, keeping them under as long
as was safe without extinguishing life.
The effect Of the submerging was the
cure Of the children. Alpha, one'of the
titten children, had ;hydrophobia
apasms, and would snap her teeth, froth
at the mouth and bark like q dog before
reaching Portland. This individual,
now nearly seyenty-iye years old, re-
