The trst application of Wizard Oil gave
me relief in fifteen minutes, and disoelled my

The laxative Judge.

A long-winded lawyer lately defended
a criminal unsuccessfully, and during
the trial the Judge received the follow
ing note:
1.-The prisoner humbly prays that the
time occupied by the plea of the counsel
for the defense be counted in his sen-
tence." This recalls an incident in our
State Supreme Court. The late Michael
Sanford was arguing a case and the late
Judge Gould was presiding. The Judge
had interrupted the counsel considerably,
and when he reminded the counsel that
his "hour was up" the latter said /:
"Well, your Honor ought to give me
half an hour more, for you have talked
half the time since I have been on my
feet" The same Judge once fell into o
ferry-way, and, unable to swim, he had
the presence OF mind to turn on his back
and float until he was rescued. In mar
rating the circumstance to al awyer, he
said: "All [ had to do was to keep on
my back with my mouth shut for three
minutes" The lawyer exclaimed:
"Judge, how did you manage to keep
your mouth shut so long?"-E1chan9e.

VARIOUS accounts are given of the
origin of the compression of the Chinese
ladies' feet. One is, that an Emperor
was jealous of his wife, and, to prevent
her from gadding abroad, put her feet in
iron stocks. Another is, that certain
Empress, Tan-kc, HOO B. c., was born
with club feet. and that she caused the
Emperor to issue an edict, adopting her
foot as model of beauty, and requiring
the compression of female infants feet
so as to conform to the imperial stand
ard while third accounts, that the EN-
peror, Le-yul, was amusing himself one
day in his palace, when the thought oc-
cured to HIM that he might improve the
appearance of the feet of a favorite slave.
He caused her feet to be so bent as to
raise tho instep into an arch, to resemble
the new moon. It is said that another
Emperor placed stamp of the lotus
flower on the sole of the small shoe of
his wife, so that at every step she took
she left on the ground the print of the
flower. Girls with small feet are compli-
mented at the present day as "the golden
lilies. The operation of bandaging and

RAIN Is the moisture of the atmos-
phere condensed into drops large
enough to fail with perceptible veloci-
ty to the earth. The water thus pre-
cipitated is quite pure, except in so
fare as it absorbs slight quantity Of
air, caTbonic acid and ammonia from the
atmosphere. The formation of rain is
in general continuation of the proc
esses of the formation of clouds, dew and
fog. The deposition of moisture de-
ponds upon the cooling OF the atmos-
phere, but concerning the precise proc
ess by which that cooling is affected
erroneous views have been widely en-
tertained In general it may be said
that the temperature of a given mass
of warm moist air is lowered in the Or
binary course Of atmospheric phenomena
by one or another Of the following four
processes: J. By radiation to the cold
sky. 2. By radiation to neighboring
masses of cold air or the cold ground.
3. By mixture with cooler air. e. By
the absorption of heat in the expansion
of ascending air. The fourth Of the
above processes is doubtless by far the
most efficient of all in lowering the tenn
perature and producing rain.

How Typhoid is Carried.

Ten thousand persons annually die OF
typhoid fever in Great Britain. Two
hundred thousand year are attacked
by the fever, and yet the disease may
be prevented.
An article in the Nineteenth Century
discusses the question of its propaga-
ton. We give some of the leading
points.
The various infectious diseases have
each their proper seat in the system.
That of typhoid fever is in certain
glands in the bowels. These are its
nidats-the spot where alone the contag
ious germ can find Judgement.
Ii the germ enters the body through
the lungs, and thus passes into the gen.
eral circulation, the probability is that
it will again pass out of the system with
out causing sickness. But it Is quite
likely to reach the glands where it will
terminate, if it enters through the stom-
ach with the water drank.
In this case the germ soon multiplies
TO millions of germs, as the yeast fungus
multiphes in dough. Hence the excre-
ments of the patient are filled with
them, and, if these are thrown upon the
ground or into open outhouses or cess
pools, they generally find their way into
wells-perhaps into a neighbor's, or
possibly into we'll which supplies
many families-endangering the lives of
the persons who drink the water.
To remove all danger, thoroughly dis
infect the fecal discharges, and, if in the
country, they should be taken at least
200 feet from any we'll. Under no c1r-
cumstances should they be disposed of
in an open clubhouse. In the city-in
case the drainage is good-it is safe to
use the sewer.
The author of the article maintains
that, as the infections germs are carried
out in what passes from the patient, the
sick-room is aCholy safe to friends and
attendants. This we do not fully ac-
cept We believe that more or less of
the germs enter the atmosphere of the
room, and may be inhaled; still, that
there is next to no danger if the room is
kept properly ventilated.
As a general thing, one attack is proof
against q second. The glands that con-
stitute the seat of the disease are quite
documentary in early childhood III
crease In size and activity till puberty;
are most fully developed from, say, Is
to 40, when they gradually diminish,
losing their activity at 70. Hence the
prevalence and violence of the typhoid
fever in persons whose ages are between
Is and As, and the general exemption of
infants and the aged.-Youth's COM

Il has been noticed and publicly COM

have long been recognized as so conspicuous

was significant of an open difference Of po-

A World reporter visited the home of Mr.
Mast in Morristowp, N. j., and greeted the
cartoonist as he returned from his usual
ride over the hills, followed by one or two
of the graceful grayhounds which seem to
abound about his park-like premises. As

Mr.. Mast remained significantly silent on
this point.

Mr.. Joseph w. Harper, Jr., upoa the subject
of the reported break between the literary
and the pictorial artists at the head of Har
