A Useful Garden Pet.

A writer in Land and Water gives an
Interesting description OF a tame heron
whose sparrow-eating proclivitieswould
delight DIR. Coues. 81 took a heron"
he says "from nest last Summer, and
have had him about the back yard ever
since. There were three in all in the
nest, which one of my boatmen took
feeding them on fish, which they took
TO at once, and it was surprising what
large-sized perch they could swallow
WHOLESALERS, spines and all. When
they became a couple of months old,
they were brought up to the stable yard
where they stalked about most indie
pendently, and soon began TO fly. They
generally took their stand on the top OF
house or gate, and soon began flying
off to lake close By; but one met an
untimely fate, and another remained On
the lake and refused TO return to oslatcry
so the remaining one had his wings
clipped, and has had to remain a walk
ing gentleman ever since. l consider
him a most useful pet. As soon as 1t
gets dusk of an evening, he is to be seen
creeping round all the quiet corners
with outstretched neck and bent legs,
on the lookout for rats and mice which
he pounces on and devours greedily.
His great delight is in a small pond of
water in the corner of the yar1, where
he spends all his spare time in chasing
imaginary fish, and it is most amusing
to watch him play with small branch
or leaf as cat with a reel of cotton;
he throws it on the water and dashes
at il as if at fish or eel. He is not at
allIparticular about his diet. and eats
all kinds of offal. When he Is given
anything, which he is unable to swal-
low, he walks right off TO the pond,
where he dips it, and straightway it
disappears down his throat, no matter
what the size may be, He was once
given a mutton chop which had been
busted with pepper and salt preparato-
ry to frying it. This he swallowed
without knowing what he was eating;
but soon finding it not very agreeable in
his crop, he at once brought it up again
(which he has a facility for doing) and
coolly walked to his pond, where he
washed the chop and swallowed it to
his satisfaction-a most sagacious per-
formance on his part. He frequently
catches sparrows and other small birds |
which comes within his reach; these |
he swallowed at once. L had no idea |
they were such omnivorous birds"

Can Piles be Cured

is the most important question to-day with
suffering millions who, when looking at the
long list of useless pile nostrums feel as the
afflicted Bible Patriarch like exclaiming: Il
have heard many such things, miserable COM
forters are We all, how long will ye vex my soul
and break me in pieces with words?' 1t Is not
recorded that Job had piles, but he could not
have had anything more painful and the same
question might have been asked then as since
for three Thousand years can piles be cured
We believe that DIR. Silsbee has solved the prob
lem. for nothing is more certain than that his
''Anakess. does absolutely and promptly cure

Not symptoms, bat the Disease.

1t would seem to be truth appreciable by
all, and especially by professors of the healing
art, that to remove the disease. not to alleviate
its symptoms, should be the chief aim Of med
ication- Yet IN how many instances do we see
this truth admitted in theory, ignored in prac-
tice. The reason that Hostetter's Stomach
Bitters is successful IN so manv cases. with
which remedies previously tried were mad
equate to cope. is attributable to the fact that
it is q medicine which reaches and removes the
causes of the various maladies to which it is
adapted. Indigestion, fever and ague, liver
complaint, gout, rheuTstism, disorders of
the bowels, urinary affections and other niala-
dies are not palliated merely, but rooted out
by IT, 1t goes to the fountain head. 1t is really
not nominally, radical remedy, and it en-
dows the system with an amount of vigor
which is its best protection against disease.

DR.. J. Hopkinson gives the following
explanation of the fact that in Wilde's
electric lamp the arc always proceeds
to the ends of the carbon and stays
there, whether the lamp be erect, hori-
Zontal or inverted: The current in each
carbon repells the arc exactly as the
current In the mercury-troughs repels
the connecting cross-wire to we'll
known experiment of Ampere. In
Wild's candle we have two fixed con-
Guctors, the carbons, and movable
conductor, the arc. Since the current
in the arc and the current in either car
bon are one from the other toward the
point of junction of that carbon with
the arc, the arc must be repelled by the
carbon.

Rosenstieh considers the following
propositions as demonstrated so far as
of eolors. In monochrome decorations,
derived from single pure color, the
gradstions of one and the same color
furnish among themselves harmonious
arrangements, realizing what Cheyreul
calls the harmony of analogues."
When coloration is derived from two
pure colors, the most pleasant assort-
ment is that of two complementaries
and their derivations, resulting in what
Chevreul designates the Harmony of

DR.. Hols has found that the specific
magnetism of magnetic irOn-stOne is
the greatest of all magnetic substances
hitherto examined. Its maximum per-
manent magnetism is nearly as great as
and partly greater than steel, as hard as
glass, and its permanent magnetization
is sooner removed in demagnetization,
with the same external agencies, than
that of steel.

DR.. Otis johnson, of the University
of Michigan, gives the following new
test for arsenic: Place the mixture con-
tanning arsenious or arsenic compounds
in Marsh apparatus with .concen-
trated solution of potassic hydrate and
a little aluminium wire. Upon wearing.
arseniuretted hydrogen will be evolved,
which may be subjected to the usual
tests. If, however, the gas blackens
argentic nitrate, the proof is quite con-
elusive, since antimony by this process
is not converted into authenticated
hydrogen.

Insects furnish many remarkable ex-
amples of analogy between their actions
and those devised by intelligent indust-
ry. The water gnat, for instance, to
keep her eggs afloat in an upright pos
ition, so that the tops may be exposed
to the air and sun, CLUES them together
side by side, in the form of a boat,
which can not be sunk. Its Larvae be-
comes pupa or chrysalis, from which
bursts the gnat, and, until it can fly, 1t
makes use of the old pupa skin as a
boat. The notonecta, or water-boatman,
turning on its back, converts its own
body into boat and rows with its long
hind pair OF legs exactly as with pair
of oars.

Fry MBAT.-This is a common habit
in American cookery, and it is most un-
profitable to the eater. 1t robs the
meat of its juice and hardens its texture.
The extreme heat of the fat not only
burns the outer layers of the meat, so
as to injure their value for nutritive
purposes, but also changes the chemical
condition of the fatty acids, giving rise
to products which obstruct breathing,
and cause tingling of the eyes and nose
of the cook which are more or less
harmful to the eater. The peculiar
flavor of the meat is in a great measure
lost by frying, and for it is substituted
the flavor Of the fat in which it is
cooked. The fat permeates the fibres of
the meat in such a way as to render
them less soluble in the watery fluids Of
the mouth and stomach, and thus
causes difficult digestion. Broiling on
a gridiron over quick fire costs little
more time and trouble, and very likely
fuel also. but by this process the juices
of the meat are sealed up-to certain
extent-instead of being evaporated,
and the nutritive value is thereby much
increased.

ATTRACTIVE LUNcHEoNs. - There is
something very dampening to the appe-
tite in the aspect of thick bread and
butter rolled in bit of piece Of
brown paper. with a cookie or two
sticking TO the parcel, and an apple
covered with crumbs at the bottom of
the pail. Such luncheon often will
prevent delicate child from eating it
at all. A little care spent in prepara-
tion-in cutting the bread trinity and
neatly, packing the cake in a white
paper, and the whole in q fresh nap
kin, in choosing pretty basket instead
of a tin pail-is not pains thrown
away. Some children are born fastidi-
GUS and with distaste for food. They
require TO be tempted to eat. at all
not by unwhOlesome goodies,
but by taking trouble to make simple
things dainty and attractive to them.
We have heard a grown woman, whose
fastidiousness had survived her child
hood, describe with shudder the effect
which her dinner-basket at school had
upon her. The very sight of it took
away her appetite; and she went
through the afternoon faint and fasting
rather than meddle with its contents.
By all means bake the cnstard In

to give the luncheon an appetizing ap-
pearance to the little people, who de-
pend upon it for the working force of
