Trade Diseases.

In his address before the British
Medical association, DR.. Arledge CLASH
fies, under the following heads, the
various causes of disease in the different
trades: First, the evolution of dust;
second, the evolution of unwholesome
vapors and gases; third, materials of an
irritant or poisonous nature acting
through the system or only locally;
fourth, overheated air, whether dry or
laden with moisture; fifth, compressed
air and rarifed air; sixth, external con-
ditions acting upon the organs of special
sense; seventh, over-exertion of particu-
lar parts of the body; eighth, mechani-
cal appliances productive of bodily in
jury. Dr. Arledge pronounces the evo-
luton of dust the most widely-spread
source of disease flowing directly from
the labor pursued-its presence and ac-
tion being observed in all textile fac
tories, in mining, for coal or metal in
ores, in cutlery manufacture, in cutting
and polishing stone and ivory, in the
process of grinding flour, and likewise
in a large number of the smaller trades.

Eggs as Food.

Eggs are an article of cheap and nu
tritious food which we do not find on
farmers tables in the quantity economy
demands. They are very convenient to
take to market, and this is the disposi-
tion which too many farmers make of
them. They probably do not compre
hend how valuable eggs are as food;
that, like milk, an egg is complete
food in itself containing everything
necessary for the development of per-
feet animal, as is manifest from the fact
that chick is formed from it. 1t seems
mystery how muscles, bones, feathers
and everything that chick requires for
its perfect development are made from
the yolk and white of an egg; but such
is the fact, and it shows how complete
food an egg is. 1t is also easily di-
gested, if not damaged in cooking. A
raw or soft boiled egg is always as easily
assimilated as is milk, and can be eaten
with impunity by children and invalids.
The average egg weighs a thousand
grains, and is worth more as food than
so much beefsteek. Indeed, there is
no more concentrated and nourishing
food than eggs. The albumen, oil and
saline matter are, as in milk, in the
right proportion for sustaining animal
life. When eggs bring no E,ore than
twenty cents per dozen, it is much bet
ter economy to find market for them
in the family than at the store. Two
or three boiled eggs, with the addition
of slice or two of toast, viii make a
enough for king.
An ordinary hens egg weighs from
one and half to two ounces, ducks
egg from two to three ounces, the egg
of the sea-gull and the turkey from
three to four ounces, and the egg of
goose from four to six ounces. The
solid matter and the oil in the ducks
| egg exceed those in hens egg by about
one-fourth According to DIR. Edward
Smith, in his treatise ON Goods, an
egg weighing an ounce and three-quar-
ters consists of 100 grains of carbon, and
eighteen and three-quarter grains of
nitrogen, or 1925 per cent of carbon,
and two per cent. of nitrogen. A writer
in the Scientific Farmer estimates that
the value of one pound of eggs, as food
for sustaining the active forces of the
| body, is to the value of one pound of
lean beef as 1854 to 900. As a flesh
producer, one pound of eggs is about
equal to one pound of beef
A hen may be calculated to consume
one bushel of corn yearly, and to lay
ten dozen or fifteen pounds of eggs.
This is equivalent to saying that three
and one-tenth pounds of corn will pros
duce, when fed to hen, fve-sixths of q
pound of eggs But tiye-sixths of a
pound of pork requires about five
pounds of corn for its production.
When eggs are one shilling per dozen,
and pork five pence per pound, we have
bushel of corn fed, producing ten
shillings worth of eggs and four shil-
lings of pork. Judging from these facts,
eggs must be economical in their pro-
duction and in their eating, and espe-
cially fit for the laboring man in replac-
ing meat. ProDisiOner.

How Gambettn LOST HIs Ere.

The tale that Gambetta, the eminent
French statesman, when a child, volun-
tarily put out his right eye in order to
be removed from seminary which he
abhorred, is pronounced an absurd
fiction. The real facts are that one day
when only eight years old, while look
ing at cutler boring holes in the
handle of a knife with drill fastened to
an old broken foil by piece of catgut,
this rude machine gave way by reason of
too great tension, and the broken foil
struck the right eye of the child with
great force, perforating the cornea.
This terrible accident causing him to be
one different from his kind, he was
petted, pampered and spoiled by his
parents, his every whim and fancy in,
dulged, and every caprice of his ardent
and violent character allowed free play.

The Owner Of the Cape Of Good Hope and
His Ostrich Farm.

Mr.. Mcclellan, who was most kindly
hospitable, has an ostrich farm, but
his flock of birds was not very large at
the time of our visit, he having had bad
luck at first in breeding.
He owns the actual Cape ofGood Hope
and long stretch of the moorland ad-
joining, and has thrown wire fence
right across the peninsula, so as to give
his Ostriches the run of large tract,
stretching right down to the Cape it.
self. One old hen ostrich was a pet
about the house, but used to do sad
damage in the farm yard eating the
young goslings, swallowing them like
oysters.
1t was amusing to 60 with Mr.. Nc
Kellar into one of his breeding pad
docks; here pair of ostricheS were
broOding on a nest of eggs, dividing,
as usual, the labor between them.
The cock was very savage and at
tackled all intruders, so his master had
a long pole with fork at the end of it,
and when the ostrich ran at the party
he caught its neck in the fork. The
ostrich was excessively enraged, but
soon had to give in.
A kick from an ostrich is well known
as very dangerous. The only thing to
do when attacked without means of de-
fense, Mr.. McKellar said, is to lie fiat
down and let the bird walk on you till
he is tired. l was astonished at the
brightness of the red cOIoring devel-
oped on the front of the legs of the
cock bird during the breeding season.
The ornamental appearance of the bird
is greatly enhanced by it.
A narrow but strong and high pen is
provided for plucking the birds in.
They are driven into it and held fast.
1t is found better to pluck the feathers
out than to cut them off. The stumps,
if left in, are apt to cause trouble.
Young ostriches, when first from the
egg, have curious horny plates at the
tips of their feathers, like those in the
feathers of one of the Indian jungle
fowl, and some other birds not in the
least related to one another.
The cape peninsula becomes very
narrow toward its termination, and
ends in two capes, Cape Point, on
which is the lighthouse, and the Cape
of Good Hope. The Cape of Good
Hope itself is mass of rock, terminal
ing in perpendicular cliffs toward the
sea, but with ledges here and there, on
which numbers of cormorants nest

piled when the first has dried. When
both are dry apply over the whole sur
face two or three coatings OF balsam Of
Peru. Plaster thus made is very plia-
bic and never breaks.
"A preventive of those accidents
which SO frequently occur in the ad-
ministration Of chlOroform to produce
an@sthesia, has been suggested by DR..
Wachsmuth, of Berlin; the method con-
sisting simply in the addition of one
part Of rectified oil of turpentine to five
parts of chlOrOform. The Oil of tur-
pentine in vapor appears to exert
stimulating or life-giving effect on the
lungs, and protects those organs from
passing into that paralyzed state which
seems to be produced by chlOrofOrm
narcosis. 1t appears that DR.. Wach-
smuth, while lying on a sick bed, ac-
cidentally breathed the VapOr of tur-
pentine, and he experienced from this
strongly refreshing feeling-a fact
which induced him to try the plan of
adding oil of turpentine to chlorofOrm
when using the latter for an@sthetic
purposes.
An article of glue which will stand
damp atmosphere, says the american
Journal of Industry, is desideratum
among mechanics, especially pattern
makers. Few know how to judge of
quality, except by the price they pay
for it. But price is no criterion; niether
is color on which 80 many depend. Its
adhesive and lasting properties depend
more upon the material from which it
is made, and the method of securing
purity in the raw material, for if that
is inferior and not well cleansed, the
product will have to be unduly charged
with alum or some other antiseptic, to
make it keep during the drying process.
Withered glue is that which has expe-
rienced unfaVorable weather while dry
ing, at which time it is rather a deli
cate substance. To resist damp atmos-
phere well, it should contain as little
saline matter as possible. When buy
ing the article, apply your tongue to it,
and if it tastes salt or acid, reject it for
anything but the commOnest purpose.
The same operation will also bring out
any bad smell the glue may have.
These are simple and ready tests, and
are the ones usually adopted by dealers
and large consumers. Another good
test is to soak weighty portion of dry
glue in cold water for twenty-four
hours, then dry again, and weigh. The
nearer it approaches to its original
weight the better glue it is, thereby
showing its degree of insolubility.
