TIE EFFECT OF COFFEE AGAIN
DR.. Richardson, the eminent English
scientist, in respect to the popular no
ton that coffee is an unhealthy beyer-
age, that it keeps up constant lrrlta-
ton of the stomach, and brings on de-
preston of spirits, etc There was a
great deal of truth in that statement,
saws the doctor, as coffee cannot be
taken in excess without producing dys-
pepsia and irritation, bit moderately
used 1T as an inUigOrat1ng, hedtthtut
and uholesome drink, bringing a
mans best energies into play. The
quantity taken, however, must not be
large, and should be good.
DIR. Book, of Leipsic, another cele-
brated scientist, says: "The nervous
ness and peevishness of our times are
chiefly attributable to tea and coffee !;
the digestive organs Of confirmed coffee
drinkers are in a state of chronic de-
rangement, which reacts on the brain,
producing fretful and lachrymose
moods. Fine ladies addicted to strong
coffee have q characteristic temper,
which | might describe as a mania for
acting the prosecuted saint Cocoa and
chocolate is neutral in its physical et-
fects, and is really the most harmless
of our fashionable drinks

HOW WOOD PULP IS MADE
portland Ne J Press.l


So much is said about the paper
pulp which is extensively used in the
manufacture of paper that a brief des-
cription of the process Of making IT will
be entertaining. Any white soft wood
NAV be used. The bark taken oil, the
knots and dark and decayed places cut
out. 1t is then put into large caul-
dron and boiled, which extracts all the
glutinous matter and resin and renders
it soft. 1t is then put on large stone
grinder. with water pouring on 1t all
the time. The grindstone wears oil the
fibres until they are finer than sawdust,
which float away into a receptacle.
The water is drained off by means OF a
fine sieve, leaving the pulp, which con-
sists of fine fuzz or splinters OF wood.
1t is white and requires no bleaching,
but is ready to be mixed with rag pulp
or anything else that has strong more
and receives the proper constituents TO
make it into paste, after which 1t Is
run off into paper sheets, whereas rags
have to be washed and bleached with
chloride of lime, soda ash and alum
and such strong chemicals to take out
the color. Then they are picked to
pieces and made into pulp. The pro-
cess by which wood pulp is made Is
purely mechanical. 1t can be made
cheap-say at about one cent pound

a POPULAR ERROR.
rp..;;e Mel. and Surg. journal. !.

(Parific Med. and surg. Journal
Rv the burning of Chinese wash
bonse in San Francisco short time
since. eleven of the occupants who
were asleep in bed lost their lives. The
account published in the newspapers
described them as exhibiting, by the
positions in which their bodies were
found, the agony they suffered from
the fire. AS editors and reporters are
considered to possess more than an av-
erage amount of intelligence and infor-
nation, it appears singular that they
should propagate such an error III
NAV be safely asserted as a general
rule that persons who lose their llves
while sleeping in burning buildings,
are suffocated and die painlessly with
out waking, and before the flames had
reached their bodies. The merest tyro
knows what would be the effect OF go
ing to bed with pan of burning char
coal in the room, or the effect OF blow
ing out the gas instead OF turning IL
off. An individual going to sleep under
sucb circumstances inhales the impure
air which acts as an anasthetlc and
rapidly converts the natural sleep into
stupor and coma, from which there Is
no waking. Persons sleeping in a
house which takes fire are smothered
frequently in this way by the car
boniferous gas long before the fire
reaches them. The bodies or remains
are found-not in halls or stairways
where they would have been had they
awakened and attempted to escape
but in bed, or in the spot which the
bed had occupied, and in the very po-
sition in which they had been lying
asleep. The exceptions are mostly no.
ticeable, as when persons are seen TO
make attempts to escape. There Is
something so horrible in the idea OF
being burned to death that it were
well for the community not to suffer
needlessly from sympathy for the VIC
tins. To the relatives Of persons who
lose their lives in burning houses, par
ticularly to parents whose children
may die in this way, it may save q
lifetime of grief to know that death en-
tered the chamber quietly and per-
formed his task without so much as
disturbing the slumbers of his victim.

A NEAT little story is told about the
way in which Mr. Jay Gould makes
use of the few social opportunities he
enjoys. Being invited to private
dinner upon his recent return from the
West, he declared in postprandial
effusion to the dozen or so of gentle
men present that he had made more
money than he could possibly find use
for, and that the great object of his
life henceforth would be to improve
the great consolidated concerns which
he now controls and to place them on
the basis of solid dividend-paying Sc
curities. He suggested indirectly that
Union Pacific would be the first to
benefit by the new consolidation ar
rangements. Upon hearing this an
old gentleman present went next morn
ing to his broker and bought thous-
and shares of the stock at 90 and a
fraction. He had to sell it out few
days later at about 88.

PETROLEUM IN RUssIA.-From an
official report addressed by Col. Ro-
manowsky to the Russian Minister OF
Finance, it appears that the principal
petroleum depots in the Russian EN-
pire are to be found in the southeast
ern and northeastern districts of the
Caucasus, that is to say, in the prov
ince of Bakou, on the shores of the
Caspian Sea, and in the province of
Kouban, in the vicinity of the Black
Sea. According to the statements OF
some Russian engineers, there are no
less than $50 localities within these
provinces where enormous quantities
of petroleum can be found. 1t is said
that 100 of these depots, if properly
worked, could be made to yield 66O,-
900, 900 gallons per annum. The Ba-
kou oil is thick and heavy, suitable
for heating and for rough purposes in
general; the Kouban oil is Of better
quality for refining and for burning in
lamps.

Mr.. VIM. III. KEMBLE could do the
public much greater service by full
confession than by serving brief
term of Imprisonment. We do not
mean a mere admission that he is
guilty of the attempt at bribery for
for which he is now waiting sentence,
but confession of all past briberies in
which he has performed part, or of
which he has been cognizant. Con-
fessions among criminals have
become very common of late. The ex-
posure of the Lewis will conspiracy by
the pretended Mrs. Lewis is notable
instance. But even that attracted little
attention compared with the commo-
tion which would be caused by the
long story Mr.. Kemble could relate of
fraud and bribery Except in the direc-
tion of frank and full confession, Mr..
Kemble's public career would seem
to be rapidly drawing to an abrupt
close.

MANY people have sort of passion
of dosing themselves every spring
with medicines Many dose their farm
animals in the same way. "The sys-
tenn needs cleaning out at least once a
year!" 1t is well to know that medi-
cines are really disease-producing
agents, and that they can do us no
good unless we are suffering from dis
ease. On the contrary, the effect of
medicines upon the healthy system is
necessarily injurious. Take medicines
only when sick, and not then, if nature
can restore health without them.

ABOUT four years ago novel plan
for instructing the children of the poor
in the art of housekeeping was put
into operation at the Wilson Industrial
School for girls, in New York City
The little girls were taught in an at
tractive manner, and with the aid of
toy implements, to wash, sweep, dust,
set the table, make beds, and variety
Of other things, in neat and thorough
way The system was known by the
name of the "Kitchen-Gard 1t
has gradually extended, until there are
now ten or twelve classes in that city,
and others have been formed in Hob
oxen, Brooklyn, Boston, Philadelphia
and Chicago. Plans have also been
made for establishing Kitchen-Gardens

THAT BLOCK PUZZLE.
Toledo B1ade.1


John Henry, whose engagement to
Sarah Emeline is just announced, goes
ND to spend the evening with his be-
loved, who has invited a few friends
to meet him. He takes the block puz-
zle up with him to make it pleasant
for them. He is quite dexterous In
tie use of the bits of wood, and has
come out even several times. With
great pride he showed it to Sarah
Emeline and her friends. He works 1T
out carefully. Somehow or other it
bothers him more than usual this time.
"I wish so many of you wouldn't
stare at me-" he remarked ''it makes
me nervous" Then he goes into a
quiet corner and works it out by him.
self After few minutes he returns,
exclaiming, Eureka ~ The guests
all gather around, and there, sure
enough, is 13, IA, Is. 'It amt right,
after all !" says Sarah Emeline; "you've
got IL, ii, instead of IL, l2.". And

blocks could bring it right. Is it any

line more? For" said he, reflect
lively, "a girl who would take fellow

invited company has got no feelin',
and it's feelin' that tells in the long
rum"
Mark Twain was accused of bring
ing plague upon his country when he
invented the horse-car poetry:
A blue trip-slip for a six-cent fare,
A pink trip-slip for an eight-cent fare,
ETC., is q terrible thing to get running
through ones head. But that flows
easily along, and while it occupies the
mind it does not torture the brain.
The block puzzle turns black hair
gray, makes amiable men cross and
sane men lunatics. 1t is, however,
the bond of sympathy that binds the
people of this city close together, and
