lent SO on violin worth 500, and
put the instrument carefully away
in closet. On the following day q
similar violin was pledged, and at

temperature about the same as that
of the body, and food placed in it.
This food was digested the same
as if it were in the stomach. If
the temperature of the juice be-
came much lower than that of the
body, digestion nearly or quite
ceased. This proved that ice water
drank on full stomach will stop
digestion at once and is one of the
best things in the world to induce
dyspepsia. The DR.. also analyzed
some of this juice and found what
it was composed of, and then he
made some that digested food ex-
actly as well as that furnished by
the dog. This suggests that the
day of jubilee for dyspeptics may
be here, and that their poor, weak
stomachs may, with artificial juice,
be able to digest a grand feast.

Be Agreeable at Meals.

Every one can do something to
add to the social life at the table.
If one cannot talk, he can listen or
ask questions and start others who
can talk. Good listeners are as
necessary as good takers. Never
argue at the table; but tell pleas
ant stories, relate or read anec-
dotes, and look out for the good Of
all. Sometimes a single anecdote
from a paper starts a conversation
that lasts during the meal time.
The family table ought to be bright
and cheerful, a sort Of domestic
altar, where every one casts down
his or her offering, great or small
of pleasantness and peace; where,
for at least brief space in the
day, sll anoyances are laid aside, all
stormy tempers hushed, all quar-
rels healed every one being glad
and content to sit down at the same
board and eat Of the same bread
and salt, making 1t, whether it be
rich repast or a dinner of herbs,
a joyful, almost sacrament
al meal.-Christian Advocate

EDUCATIONAL.

For some months past DIR. Stow
ell, of the University at Ann Ar
Dor, has been making some very
interesting experiments respecting
hunger, thirst, and digestion, and
this is the way he has proceeded.
He took quiet, well behaved dog,
bound him in frame, put him un-
der the influence of chloroform,
made a small incision just back of
his breast bone, through the hide
and flesh and into the cavity Of
the stomach. Through this he
placed half inch silver tube fang
ed at both ends, and securely fas-
tened it, so that one end was in
side the stomach and the other out
side the dog. In about two weeks
the wound was healed and "Alex'
so called after the renowned Alex.
st. Martin whose stomach taught
the world-was ready for scientific
pursuits. He first showed the fel-
lows how he could drink. The
plug in the tube was withdrawn
and water was set before him. Be-
ing thirsty, he drank and drank,
but the water ran out Of the tube
as fast at it went down his throat.
His thirst was not slaked. He was
astonished, disgusted, and thorough
ly demoralized. He leaped from
the room and would not be fooled
into tasting water for three or four
DAYS. He was afterwards allowed
to drink all he wished; then the
plug was drawn ont and the stom-
ach was emptied, when poor Alex.
was as thirsty and drank as greed
lily as before. 1t was repeated
again and again, and every time
the animal greedily slaked his
thirst. This proved very perfectly
that thirst is not desire Of the
mouth, nor throat nor stomach, nor
of all three, but demand of the
whole system. His thirst was per-
fectly satisfied by forcing water in
to his stomach through the tube.
Next he was kept without food
for "a hours, and then given milk.
When he had satisfied himself this
was drawn off and he was hungry
again. More milk was given and
presently drawn of and Alex. was
hungry as ever Finally he was
kept without food till he was known
to be very hungry and food was
injected through the tube. This
satisfied him perfectly. Thus hun
ger was proved to be q demand of
the whole system.

The Uses of Lemon.

The London Lancet says: Few
people know the value of lemon
juice. A piece of lemon bound up
on corn will cure it in a few days ;
it should be renewed night and
morning. A free use of lemon
juice will always relieve a cough.
Most people feel poorly in the
spring, but if they would eat a
lemon before breakfast every day
for week-with or without sugar,
as they like-they would find it
better than any medicine. Lemon
juice, used according to this recipe,
will sometimes cure consumption !:
Put a dozen lemons into cold water
and slowly bring to a boil; boil
slowly until all the juice is extract
ed; add sugar to your taste and
drink. In this way, use one dozen
lemons per day. If they cause
pain lessen the quantity and use
only five or six day until you are
better, and then begin again with
a dozen a day. After using five or
six dozen, the patient will begin to
gain flesh and enjoy food. Hold
on to the lemons, and still use them
for several weeks more. Another
use for lemons is for a refreshing
drink in summer, or in sickness at
any time. Prepare as directed
above and add water and sugar.
But in order to have this keep well,
after boiling the lemons squeeze
and strain carefully; then to every
half pint of juice add one pound
of loaf or crushed sugar, boil and
stir few minutes more until the
sugar is dissolved, skim carefully
and bottle. You will get more
Juice from the lemons by boiling
them, and the preparation keeps
better.

ITO meet this want, the Board de-
termined co procure the establishment
Of an agricultural journal, entirely
disconnected with politics, and exclu-
sively devoted to the success of the
Boards work, through the columns Of
which their labOrs could be made
knoun to the farmers and others. Like
the Department itself, the paper will
cost the public not one dollar in the
shape of taxes, the enterprising pub
fishers agreeing to publish free all mat
ter furnished them by the Board, and
risk their remuneration in the patron
age Of the people. If the Department
of Agriculture shall prove capable of
doing anything for the real good of
North Carolina, these results will be
made known through these columns
from time to time
