My arrival created much excitement.
as pursuit OF the murderer had from the

been IN that part OF the state before.
The child was several miles away from

been year since the murder. Little
Jack had almost forgotten the circum-
stance, and OF course the murderer had
changed some; but l had strong hopes
that the child would be able to identify
the man, and was not disappointed.
Waiting until evening, | conducted
Jack INTO a room where Luke and q
dozen citizens were sitting. The little
fellow had no knowledge OF what we in

murderer. When he did he uttered a
loud shrek, ran to me, and exclaimed:

when the purchaser of the watch testified
to his identity he kept bold face, and

Suicide OF the Scorpion.

Mr.. Allen Thomson, In letter published
in Nature, writes that while residing many
years ago at the baths of Lucca, in Italy,
some friends were much annoyed by small
black scorpions. Having been informed
that the scorpion destroys itself if ifexposed
to a sudden light, his friends soon became
adopts in catching the scorpion and dispos-
ing of them. This consisted in confnlng
the animal under an inverted drinking glass
or tumbler, below which card was insert
ed when the capture was made, and then,
waiting till dark, suddenly bringing the
light of candle near to the glass in which
the animal was confined. No sooner was
this done than the scorpion invariably
showed signs of great excitement, running
round and round the interior of the tumbler
with reckless velocity for a number of
times. This state having lasted for a min
ute or more, the animal suddenly became
quiet, and, turning its tail or the hinder
part of its body over Its back, brought its
recurved sitting down upon the middle of
the head, and piercing it forcibly, in few
secones became quite motionless, and, in
fact, quite dead. This observation was
repeated very frequently, in truth, it was
adopted as the best plan Of getting rid of
the animals, and the young people were in
the habit of handling the scorpions with i'm
punIty Immediately after they were 50
killed, and Of preserving many of them as

COOKED OR USCooEED FooD.-Prof.
Harrington Of the Maine state agricul-
tural college, has just concluded a SER
les Of experiments which were begun
nine years ago by Samuel johnson,
tnen farm superintendent, fol the pur-
pose of ascertaining the feeding value
of cooked and uncooKed meal Tor swine.
The trials have been carried on several
months each year, the greatest care be-
ing taken that no food should be wasted
but that the pigs should be fully sup
piled. The raw meal was simply mix
ed with cold water and fed immediate
l., except in very cold weather, when
IL was given slightly warm. The result
is wholly in favor OF the uncOoked meal
for feeding. The professor says that
these experiments prove that the labor
and fuel required for cooking food Is
more than thrown away. This accords
with opinions We have held for a long
time, and our practice has been confin-
ed wholly TO uncooked food for more
than twenty years. We are not even
particular to mix the meal and water
only as IL becomes mixed in the trough
by pouring milk and water upon the
meal, Meal is cheap and labor dear In
New England.

THE HOUSEHOLD.

CURE FOR CoLD IN THE HEAD.-"It
would seem that the cure for those
worst of small nuisances, cold in the
head, which DR.. Ferrier suggested IN
the Lancet, might prove to be remedy or
very great value. 1t Is a snuff-a white
powder-composed oi the following ln-
gradients: Hydroc"lorate Of morphia,
two grains: acacia powder, two drachms
trisnitrate of bismuth, six drachms-
the whole making mp aqnantlty of
powder, of which from one-quarter to
one-half may safely be taken, If neces-
sary, In the course Jf twenty-four
hours. DIR. Ferrier says that with this
snuff he has twice cured himself of
very violent colds, once, indeed by TAX
ing trisnitrate Of bismuth alone, which
is \ very powerful remedy for catarrh of
the mucuos membrane, and Is the most
important ingredient In this snuff. DIR.
Ferrier mentions two others who were
cured of violent colds, by the same snuff
and to these instances we may add that
of the present writer, who having Il
very violent cold coming on, with the
sensation of weight in the temples and
the usual disagreeable feeling In the
| throat, as we'll as ordinary catarrh
made trial of DR.. Terriers remedy one
evening, and got up on the following
morning completely free from cold,
which has not since recured. The
snuff, Instead of increasing the ten
dency TO sneeZe, almost Immediately
| begins to diminish It,.

Sort BEDs.-There are differences OF
opinion In regard to the best beds for
refreshing sleep, some persons advO-
eating soft and some hard bells. The
difference between them is that the
weight of body on a soft bed presses
on larger surface than q hard bed +,
and consequently more comfort Is en-
jOyed. Hard beds should never be CIV
en- to little children, and parents who
suppose that such beds contribute TO
health. by hardening and developing
the constitution, are surely In error
Eminent physiclans-both here and in
England-concur in this opinion, and
state That hard beds have often proved
injurious to the shape of infants. Birds
and animals cover their offspring with
the softest materials they can obtain
and also make soft beds for them; and
the softness of bed is not evidence of
its being unwholeSome. But if it Is
not kept sweet and clean by daily air.

it is hard or soft-it IL surely injurious
to health.

FRENCH WIT.-There is a certain
charm about French wit. 1t cuts Ink
the sword of Saladin, and Its keen edge
is sometimes very dangerous TO tritle
with. The marriage relation, har-
ness which all Frenchmen wear very
lightly, acd which Americans are rap
idly learning to wear in the same way,
is favorite theme for sarcasm. A
gentleman in Paris lately lost mis- wife,
and, as Is the custom in most foreign
countries, walked at the head of the
sad procession to the grave. On his
return q friend cOndoIed with him and
tried to cheer his heart. "Now, you
must not give way to your grief" he
said; ''you must walk in the open air, !,
because exercise helps one to recover
from the excess of SORROW" "Yes,
yes," replied the bereaved man, 'Frhe
advice is good; have already taken a
short promenade to the cemetery and
feel better for it,"
