A CURE FOR INTEMPERANCE.

\ physician has discovered a remedy
for intempeTance, which IS said to be
thorough in lis operation, and to result
in a perfect cure. He starts with the
assumption that drunkenness, manifest
ing itself in the first instance as a habit,
afterwards develops into a disease OF
the nerve-cells. To bring out clearly
the action OF alcohol upon the system, it
may be well to contrast it with that of
food. The latter goes to the stomach
first. and then to the heart, and then it
passes through the arteries to the brain.
Many hours at least foUr-aTe consum-
ed in his process. Now alcohol pro-
ceeds direct to the nerve cells. from
which the brain is stimulated in three
minutes. clearly showing it has been un-
digested. From the brainit goes to the
spinal centre, thence to the muscular
system. and ultimately it reaches the
stomach, reversing at each step the ac-
ton of food. Now these nerve cells
should be stimulated. naturally. through
the blood, and when they are subjected,
as 10y alcohol, to an unnatural Stimulant
and especially when this is done hab-
itually.-the cells crave larger and
larger doses, till by and by a man can
drink an enormous quantity of whiskey
every day.
/
The recipe in question is compounded
from pound of the best quill red Per-
uvian bark (CjHcLOaG l-ltJrd). which is
powdered, and then soaked in pint of
diluted alcohol. 1t is next strained.
and evaporated TO a half-pint. y tea
spoonful is given every three hours, the
tongue being occasionally mOiStened be-
tween the doses on the first two days.
On the third day the dose is reduced 20
tablespoonful. then to a aquarter spoon
ful, then to fifteen, ten, and five drops.
The treatment lasts in extreme cases to
thirty days, but seven days is about the
average.
We have seen that the nerve-cells
when unnaturally stimulated call for
larger doses of alcohol, and the object
of the cure, it was stated, was to put an
end to the craving. Well. the medicine
is natural stimulant, but contains no
poison accordingly, the nerves are slim
ulated, and the inflammation is gradu-
ally allayed through the absence of the
poison. In short, the cells are held open
/ until the morbid deposit is elected,
and they accustOm themselves TO receive
their stimulus in the natural manner
through the blood. Patients who have
submitted themselves to this remedy
have not only been cured of their dis
ease, but have lost all desire for drink

THE LAW OF TRESPASS.

The following summary of the law is
from report on the subject made to the
State Board of Agriculture of PennSyl-
vania:
Trespass is defined as ''any trans
gression or offence against the law OF
nature. of society, or of the country in
which we live, whether it relates to a
mans person or property This IS its
widest meaning.
Ordinarily, however, it has reference
only to an entry on the property of an
other without authority, and in doing
damage while there, whether much or
little.
The law gives the owner exclusive
control over his property. An infringe
ment of his rights without his permis-
sion or justified by legal authority there
fore constitutes a trespass
1t does not need that the land should
be inclosed by fences. The law supposes
an imaginary Enclosure, which answers
every purpose, and the simple act Of
passing oyer it constitutes trespass, al
though no harm should really result to
crops, cattle or aught else.
Every person legally authorized to
seize certain goods on q man S premises
dare not break open doors for that pur-
pose; if he does, his authority availS Eim
nothing, ana he becomes common
trespasser.
Neither is Il person justified in so ar
ranging SpOutS as to discharge water on
another mans land, even though he
never steps off his own grounds nor to
permit filth to pass a boundary line
without due permission.
When the spout first discharges on q
mans own premises and the contents
then find their way to neighbOr's prem
ises it does not constitute trespass.
Hunting and fishing, however, cOnsti-
tute the most common and annoying
sources of trespass to which our farmers
are subjected.
Custom has induced some people ia
believe they can hunt and fish on the
lands or waters of other men with i'm
punity. Nothing is wider of the fact
than this.
Because there can be no property in
rabbits, quails, squirrels, pheasants and
other feraI birds and animals. they think
these may be pursued wherever they
may be discovered
1t is hardly necessary to sap that the
same laws governing trespass in Other
cases prevail here. No matter that
neither grass nor grain are trampleC
! down, whether gates are LEFT closed.
/ bars left up and no rails broken. the
1 pursuit of such game on the lands o.
/ another without permission is trespass.
/ To even enter an inclOsed piece OF
/ woods where there are no crops to bt
J injured, in pursuit of game. which may
/ have taken refuge there, is violation
. OF law-quite as much as if a wEea
/ field in ear had been trampled down.

THE following recipe for keeping
lamp chimneys from cracking is take II
from the Diamond, a Leipzig journal
devoted to the glass interest Place
your tumblerS, chimneys, or vessels
which you desire to keep from cracking
into a pot filed with cold water. add a
little cooking salt. allow the mixture to
boil well over a fire, and then to cool
slowly. Glass treated i'll this way is
said not to crack, even if exposed to
very sudden changes OF temperature
ChimneyS are said to become very dura-
ble by this process, which may also be
extended to crockery, stoneware, porce-
lain, etc. The experiment is so cheap
that it deserves a trial.
