Timely Hints to FATHERS.

Avoid bathing within two hours after meal
or when exhausted by fatigue or from any
other cause or when the body is cooling after
perspiration, and avoid bathing altogether in
the open air if after being a short time in the
water there is a sense of chilliness, with numb
ness of the hands and feet, but battle when the
body is warm, provided no time is lost in get
ting into the water. Avoid chilling the body
by sitting or standing undressed on the banks
or in boats, after having been in the water, or
remaining too long in the water, but leave the
water Immediately there is the slightest feel
ing of chilliness. The vigorous and strong may
battle early in the morning or on an empty
stomach, but the young and those who are
weak had better battle two or three hours after
a meal; the best time for such is from two to
three hours after breakfast. Those who are
subject to attacks of giddiness or faintness, and
who suffer from palpitation and other sense of
discomfort at the heart should not battle with
out first consulting their medical adviser. At
ter bathing a vigorous use of the towel is very
beneficial, and should be followed when nee
essary by moderate exercise till general re-
action sets in. The old notion about the dam
ger of plunging into cold water when the body
is heated has long ago exploded. In fact it is
now clearly established that the colder the
water the hotter should be the bather Fever
patients, it is well known, never take cold,
even if wholly immersed for brief intervals in
ice water. If the body is not already in Wig
orous glow, bathing is sure to do more harm
than good

A Cruel RumOr.

cruel rumor has been going the rounds,
and published in two papers, that Mr.. Ansel
Dyer had killed man in Cuban waters. The
story is false in every particular. A few weeks
ago the "Lije Houghton," of which vessel Mr..
Dyer is mate, was discharging a cargo of shook
at Matanzas. Mr.. Dyer had charge of the
sings with which the shook are hoisted from
the hold and passed into the lighter alongside.
A member of the crew of the lighter ran to UNI
fasten the hooks from bundle Of shocks at
tached to sling, and in so doing ran under
another bunch attached to another sling just
as Mr.. Dyer gave the order to ''let 60" The
second bunch of shook weighing some 400
pounds, fell on the unfortunate man from the
deck of the Lie Houghton, killing him i'm
stantly. The captain of the Houghton, the
captain of the lighter, and our informant went
before the Captain of the Port,-for in Cuba
all such affairs have to be investigated-all of
them showed the affair was an accident and
Mr.. Dyer was Immediately acquitted. He is
now in New York. Newspaper men cannot be
too particular how they publish affairs of this
kind without full investigation.

young, active farmer in North Gorham has
some crops unusually forward. A field of

superphosphate in the hill, was spindled on
June oath and he had mess of green peas on

berries which are bearing well although some
what injured by late frosts.
The Lewiston Journals correspondent
writes:
A deputation of ladies belonging to Gorham
Lodge of Good Templars in the spirit of
reform, visited, five respectable cider sellers,
all farmers last Tues day, and respectfully, but
earnestly besought them not to sell any more
to inebriates. Two of the parties denied sell
ing any of late; two others admitted selling,
and said they should continue to sell until the
law Ghe Maine law, which never helped the
cause of temperance and has no terrors for
rumsellers, you know compelled them to stop
and especially until certain other respectable
citizen should be made to stop selling to in
temperate persons. The last named did not
deny selling but would give no promise to
woman" The cider business here is causing
much domestic trouble, and its effects are
deplorable in all cases.

MATCHING EGGS BY STEAM.
Experiments by a Portland Gen tlema

Experiments by a Portland Gen tleman.
Some few months ago Portland merchant,
who is interested in poultry raising, received
from Paris, France, a French machine for
artifcially Matching chickens, since which
time he has been carefully experimenting
with the most gratifying results. This machine
is heated by hot water, which is kept at a
certain temperature by drawing off a guam tity
and replacing with boiling water at certain
hours night and morning. The eggs are con-
tanned in drawers through which there is
constant current of warm air, which must not
vary over four degrees. These eggs are care
fully turned night and morning. After being
in the incubator five days, with lamp--which
is also a French invention-the eggs are ex-
amined, and those in which the chicken has
not begun to form, are thrown out as worth
less and replaced by good ones; thus the
Matching process goes continually on This
machine has capacity of 400 eggs. From
this machine, after being Matched, the
chickens are confded to the care of the
artificial er''-another French machine
which gives warmth and shelter to the
CHlcheHS JiI tney are large enough 10 take
care of themselves. This is very ingenious
machine, the heat being supplied by large
copper tank kept filled with hot water which
throws the heat down from above; the inside
of the lower compartment is covered with
down and feathers, which envelope the
chickens when they enter the machine which
is on level with the ground. This gentle
man has also a novel machine with which to
feed chickens, when fattening, which forces
them to eat whether they want to or not, con-
sequently fattening them rapidly.
When we remember the demand and great
prices paid for spring chickens in the large
cities, it is easy to see how with these machines
one may raise large quantities of poultry and
get good prices, for they can be raised as well
in December, January and February as in the
later spring.
The gentleman referred to with his machine
Matched out large brood of chickens two
weeks ago, which under the care of artificial
mother have grown well, not one of which
has died.
The machines with proper care are a perfect
success, and are the first of the kind ever used
in America S.
