+ The immense service rendered BY
chiorotorm, ether, etc, in the alleyiation
OF pain have been somewhat deprecated
by the danger to life incurred in their
use, and the numerous fatal cases record
ed as the result OF their administration.
Many efforts have been MADE to tind a
rapid and certain antidote, but without
success. until g. very simple remedy was
discovered by the late celebrated sur
geon, DR.. Nelaton. His son, while quite
lad, was in the habit of amusing himself
by catching mice and Harvesting t. en- to
toy carriages like horses. In attaching
them to the miniature vehicles taey fire.
Quently bit him, and he induced his
father to give him some chloroform to
enable him to perform his Operations
without the Inconvenience Of being bit
ten One one occasion, having admins
tered the an@sthetic, he raised the little
animal by the tail in perpendicular d.
rection, when it immediately turned and
tried to bite him. He mentioned the
subject to his father, who, upon rehec-
ton, considered that the explanation was
due TO the fact that tho brain, while be-
ing asleep, is almost destitute Of blood,
but that, on the position OF suspension
with the head downward having been At
tanned, the circulating faid rushes to
the head and awakens the animal. Not
long after be had an opportunity Of test,
ing his theory. Two eminent surgeons
had to perform an operation at Saint
Gelmain-Laye, and requested the assis-
lance Of DR.. Melton. He happened to
miss the train, and when he arrived by
the subsequent one, the proceedings had
alread Y commenced. The patient was
under the influence of chlorotorm, an
the medical men feared from the symp.
toms that fatal result might ensue. DR..
Nealton at once advised that the head of
the patieat should be hung over the side
of the bed, and the feet raised in the air.

Face to Face with Disease,

How often It happens that although we
have witnessed the ravages of disease in the
case OF others, we disregard his warning sig:
mails in our own. 1t is only when we find
him face to face with lis that we really perceive
how grim he is. Then, perchauce, when it is
too late, medicinal aid is sought. His avaut
courier, his forerunner, is physical weakness
Fortify the system, and you are armed against
him. The finest tonic for this purpose is
Hostetter's Stomach Bitters, which renders
system, improves the appetite, gives strength
yielding sleep, couuteracts biliousness, and
keeps the bowels in first rate order. Lean
ness, and unnatural wanness and salluwness
of the face, are obyiated by it, and SO genial
and beneficent are its effects, that not only is
the body invigorated and regulated by its
use, but dependency banished from the
mind.

THE Rev. HENRY WARD BEECHER in his
Lecture on "The wastes and burdens of
society,"" claims mans natural life to be 80
there must be a waste Of. Al years." There is
much of truth in this statment. If q man be
unfortunate in business, it is attributed to
the violation of some commercial law Now,
If person be taken off in the prime of life,
ought it not to be attributed to the violation
of some physiological law? II people only
knew better, they would live better and long
er; but how can they profit by that which
they know not Of? The only popular work
that meets the great want is DR.. Pierces
Common Sense Medical Adviser. In it the
great problems of disease and health are fully
discussed. The work contains over 800
pages and $50 colored plates and wood cuts.

An Unpublished Poem.

'-.=z. BY IALLACK.-"THE TEAR" r'''~7.
ION beds of snow the moonbeam slept,
And chilly was the midnight gloom, .ss.
When, by the damp grave, Mary wept :
Sweet maid! 1t was her lovers tomb.
A warm tear gush'd, the wint'ry air
COngeaPd 1t as it flow'd away;
All night it lay an ice-drop there,
81 At morn 1t glitter'd in the ray.
An angel wandering from his sphere,
Who saw this bright, this frozen gem,
10 To dew-ey'd pity brought the tear ~
And placed 1t in her diadem."

restore her to health. Ladies, attend to your
health before you even think of apparel. A

lutely true. No one who has not seen
it can imagine the damp and mildew
which covers every thing if it be shut
up even for a few days. Ammonia in
the box or drawer keeps the gloves from
being spotted like the pard, but nothing
seems to avail with the other articles Of
clothing. Linen feels quite wet if it is
left unused in the al,nirah, or chest or
drawers, for week. Silk dresses
break out into a measle-like rash of yell
low spots. Cotton or muslin gowns be.
come livid, and take unto themselves a
horrible charnel-house odor. Shoes
and books are speedily covered quar-
ter of an inch deep by a mold which you
can easily imagine would begin to grew
ferns and long grasses in another week
or so.-G0Od Words.

To wash silks, lay the silk smooth
on clean board, rub soap upon it, and
brush it with rather hard brush. The
amount of brushing requisite will de-
pend on the quantity of grease upon the
silk. When it has been sufficiently
brushed with the soap to cleanse itfrom
grease and dirt, it should be well brush
ed on both sides with clean cold water.
A little alum infused in the last water
with which the silk is brushed will pre-
vent the colors from spreading Should
there be any patches of grease upon the
silk, they should be removed as previ-
ously described, or by the application of
little camphene and alcohol. Folding
or wringing six when wet must be
scrupulously avoided, as creases made
in silk when wet will never disappear
and, in like manner, hot Suds must not
be used for washing silks, as it will in
most instances remove the colors.

first set up. 1t has cooked 27, 1893 meals, in
Guiding $4,000 lbs. of steaks, 1900 lbs. of
