Good Shooting.

Some of the members of the ChebOygan
Gun club do shooting that would do cred
| it to some of the crack clubs of the cOun-
try. Last Monday evening w. S. Hum
phrey and TIA. Perrin INDUCED in a
shoot for their own amusement and to
get in little practice. They shot 10 balls
each, Bogardus- trap, twenty-One yards
rise, and scored as fOllows:ss 1
Total
Perrin. 10111111-S
Humphrey. Is
The next afternoon they undertook to
shoot off the tie, shooting at five balls
each, the balls being thrown from the
trap across the field, and the result was
each shot four out of five, leaving them
still tie. The above is about as good a
ratio as some of the contestants for
championship make in their matches.
This morning they determined to have
the matter out, and had to make two
trials before it was decided. The first
resulting in both breaking four out of
five, on the second Humphrey broke four
and Perrin three out of five.

The Schooner s. l.. Watson i'm Trouble
Last Thursday morning the schooner
S. L. Watson ran on the foot of Bots
Blanc island during the fog. The cap
tain came over in shis yawl after the
Leviathan, which went to his assistance.
The Watson had not gone on very hard,
and the Leviathan soon had her off and
started to tow her out into the straits,
while doing so the schooner struck a
rock, which is not shown on the charts
and was in worse condition than when
ashore. The rock upon which she stuck
is about three-quarters of mile east by
south from the buoy off the foot of the
island, and, Capt. Kirkland says, is not
larger than good sized vessel, with
plenty of water upon all sides of it.
The Watson was loaded with coal for
Chicago, and had to be lightened before
she could be got off. Capt. Kirkland
succeeded in getting her free about
midnight Thursday night. Striking
the rock caused he to leak some but it
was thought she could be kept clear by
the use of her pumps. Several extra
men were hired to help keep the pumps
going. The Leviathan took her in tow
and left last evening for Chicago. That
rock should be buoyed so as to warn yes
sells OF the danger. Situated as it is
three quarters of mile from the buoy
at the foot of the island, it would natur-
ally be supposed that vessel would be
all right at that point. It is said that
it is the same rock on which the steam
er MayhOwer struck some years since.
Something should certainly be done to
prevent any further accidents if possible.

Street Improvement.

Last week we referred to the work be- ing done by landlord Browne in front of the Grand Central hotel, and we speak of it again this week, because the im- provement is of such character that ali who have seen it pronounce the change as well the benefit worthy of the highest praise. Mr. Browne has ornamented the grass with large stones whitewashed. He has also set number of hitching posts and whitewashed them. One good effect of this work is that others intend to fix in front of their residences the same as in front of the Central hotel. Mr. Charles H. Peck and Charles F. Beardsley will commence in short time. The actual cost is but little, and we are in hopes of seeing Newtown street graded and put in such good order that it will be the finest street in Fairfield county.
 Mr. Wm. Botsford has graded in front
 of his fine residence, and was actively engaged in hauling gravel last Friday
 with the thermometer among the nineties
 and suffering humanity bleeding at every pore.

would be ready between two and three p. m., and promptly at the appointed hour the cunning Quaker was on hand when he was shown an array of kegs which he saw contained (ln place of large coin that he was in quest of nothing but Spanish pestareens and quarters, with a few bushels of the much worn and delap- dated ninepeuce and sixpence-a variety certainly, but he could dispense with that, so he desire the porter to unhead the whole of them, which upon being done he grasped a few hands full from each, and said he had changed his mind and that they might count what he had left and place amount to his credit What it should be he could could tell in a few minutes by counting the hands full that he had distracted while it was the work Of days before the bank could as certain what remained in the kegs; it was thus that he proved himself a match for his colleagues in Wall street, ard there were some who were not much inferior to him in any of their business transac- tions.

Ague and Fever.

When the attack comes on in its cold stage apply warm water freely to the trunk and lower extrsmities. Cloths rung out of hot water may be bound around the body, passing over the stom- ach and liver, and the feet placed in water of about 110 degrees. A steam bath is excellent in this stage. When the fever sets in, cold water should be applied; the temperature being from 60
 to 65 degrees. A thorough and very effective mode of treatment in the hot | stage is hv the wat ehaot no oi,. .L---h--. being changed about once in thirty mtn-
 utes while the fever continues. The head of the patient should be kept cool
 by cold, wet cloths, to subdue or mitigate
 the violence of the headache. Occasional
 sips of unsweetened lemonade are agree
 able in this stage and help to cool the blood. On the subsistence of the fever, the pack or bathing should be suspended
 and the patient dried off with towels, and
 then rubbed briskly for five or ten min
 utes with the hands. He can then go to
 bed and rest. or take a nap, and will gen.
 ally experience a sense of refreshmeat.
 The diet in such cases should be com- posed almost entirely of farinaceous ar-
 ticles. with fruits and little milk. As , the malady proceeds from a derange- ment of the stomach, liver, and spleen in other words, from trouble in the diges. F tive function-nothing but nutritious food f and that which digests easily. should bt f eaten; while everything which excites
 heats or abnormally stimulate the system i should be positively avoided. When tn, l. stomach and bowels work normally. tn, I patient is in the way of recovery.

That Pickle Recipe.

"Oh! Mrs. Thompson" exclaimed Mrs. Pembrose, enthusiastically. at the former lady's supper table, "how do you make those pickles. they have such lovely flavor? I always thought made good pickles, but yours far exceed mine. Mrs. Thompson was highly fiattered to hear such encomiums from the lady. since she had uniformly condemned her capacities in that line hitherto. At the lady's request she wrote the recipe on . strip of paper. Next day she was in- formed that Mrs. Pembrose had tossed the recipe in the gutter before she was 8 hundred yards from the house. and said she asked for it only to fiatter her hostess excessive vanity. Mrs. Thompson was deeply incensed, and racked her fertile brain to be even with the wretch. | Next day the jar of pickles was emptied; there were just enough for sup per- Among the pickles she found 6 mouse, which had evidently fallen into the jar and was scalded to death by the hot vinegar before it was tied up. A sar-
 
 hastily wrote note and addressed 1t to Mrs. Cecelia Pembrose. It was worded thus:
 "My Dear Friend II had omitted one essential ingredient in that pickle recipe. not by any forgetfuiness on my part as- sure you, for was not aware at the time that this ingredient had been added and to it, no doubt, may be attributed the lovely flavor you admired so much. It was little mouse. which accidentally fell into the jar while it stood uncovered to cool the hot vinegar. Now you have the recipe complete, and may have pickles equal to mine.
 Respectfully, MRS. THOMPSON" The delight of Mrs. Pembrose at this : intelligence may be imagined. She does , not take tea with Mrs. Thompson any more.

pore.

When the cheated term" is upon us, care should be taken to avoid excessively heating the blood which tends to the at tack called sun-stroke. They who are temperate and hygenic in their eating and drinking are much less liable to sun stroke than they who eat everything they want and drink wine, whisky, or ale. Then, too, the hygenic and they who practice abstinence with respect to alcoholic beverages, when sun-struck, recover much easier from the attack than the drinkers. This is the testl- mony of all physicians of experience.
 The treatment of one who was sum- struck is similar to that required in apo plexy, as the brain-congestioni is similar. Cold ablutions over the whole person and ice to the head, considered the best method by many physicians, may do with strong, robust persons, but the majority of cases would sink under such treatment A better method is to make hot appllca- lions or alternate hot and cold. II ho' water cannot be obtained at first, bathe the head with tepid water, and with the hands moistened, rub the extremities the neck and the whole length of th' spine, rubbing in a downward dlrectloi to draw blood from the head. As sool as boiling water can be obtained, put l dry blanket around the body, then wrlhi aannels from the hot water and appl, quickly to the region of the stomach
 liver. bowel and spine, over the blanket ! also immerse the feet in hot water,
 wrap them in hot fannels as far as th
 body. Re-wring the hannels once ever five or eight minutes for half an hour c
 more. then remove them and apply col
 water in the same way, either py COG
 towels or by sponging with cool water l dry we'll and rub the surface lightly an
 briskly with the hand until glow IS pro duced. As soon as the patient can swa low. give hot water to Gfink-plenty it-with occasional bits of ice or sips cold water.

Almost a Serious Accident.

Last Thursday afternoon Leonard. youngest son of Col. l.. J Wright. while at play in the lot of Mir. A. Blackman, Jr.. he attempted to get into an ox-eart Tn which there were three barrels of water which was being useo for watering to- bacco plants. The cart tipped, and one of the barrels rolled on to the little fellow and injured him. Dr. Bennett was called. and on examination found no bones- broken, but from the amount of pain the little fellow suffered during the night, It is nresumef2 that the barrel rolled over him hurting him internally. Had the barrel struck upon him in it's descent to the ground it would de ubtless have killed him. The escape from more serious in- jury was truly wonderful.

As We know familiar voices. Every near and dear ones call. Coming through the silent chambers, Waking echoes in the hall; So with instinct all unerring, Ever strengthening, more and more, We can read the varied language Of the footsteps at the door Grandpa's faItering tread, now heavy With the weight Of fruitful years. Nearing wonder golden city
 Almost through this vale of tears; Staadfast feet that never loitered Brayely going on before; By and by we'll miss their music Isqrvtvuss IuUIstcps al the door. Then, the batter of the children,
 Happy darlings out and in, Like the butterflies and sunbeams.
 With no thought of care or sin ! Little feet that need sure guiding
 Fast the pitfalls on the shore, Least they turn aside to mischief;
 Blessed footsteps at the door Then the matron, glad and cheery,
 Hears her good man drawing nigh; And then the children hear the mother As her busy footsteps fly: Household music We all hear it
 While we love if more and more. And we hope to welcome with it
 Angel footsteps at the door.
