HydrophOb a.

Gottleib Elsasser. Prussian doctor
who died in Philadelphia some time since,
gave what he said to be never-failing
cure for hydrophobia obtained from his
uncle who was pound-master in Berlin.
The following is Elsasser's remedy
Beneath the tongue of every human be-
ing there are two large veins, whose
blackness renders them easily distin-
gulshable. When any one is afflicted
with hydrophobia, cut these open with
a pair of small scissors or any sharp in
strument. and allow the blood to trickle
out. This rids the patient of the virus.
Then make tea of lupulin. the seeds OF
the hop vine, and give the patient cup
full. This will at once put him to sleep
without having the injurious effect that
would follow the administration of opium.
In four or five hours the patient viii
awake. Then give him another cupful of
tea, and continue this treatment until he
has slept for twenty-hours. He will theD
be entirely cured"

Why Teeth Decay.

One great cause of decayed teeth is
drinking cold liquids Immediately after
having had some hot article in the mouth.
The heat expands the enamel covering
of the teeth. and the cold contracting
it suddenly causes it TO crack, and thus
exposing to the air the structure of the
tooth proper, allows il to decay. Another
prolific cause is want of cleanliness.
Particles of food clinging to the crevices
between the teeth cause them to decay.
So you should always brush your teeth
well after eating. Do not neglect this
easily performed. duty; it will not only
serve to protect your teeth and keep
them in good condition, but a nice, clean
sweet mouth will have great influence
in making you feel well all over, while a
mouth full of decayed food will give you
bad taste, foul breath and a rotten
mouth, which will tend to depress your
system and make you feel not only i'm
pure to yourself, but will render you
offensive to your companions.

Human Endurance In the Water.

Men and animals are able to sustain
themselves for long distances in the
water, and would do SO much oftener
were they not incapacitated, in regard
of the former at least, by sheer terror,
as well as complete ignorance of their
real powers. Webb's wonderful endur-
ance will never be forgotten. But there
are other instances only less remarkable.
Some years since, the second mate of a
ship fell overheard while in the act of
hosting sail, 1t was blowing fresh:
the time was night, and the place some
miles out in the stormy German ocean.
The hardy fellow, nevertheless, man.

Can't Stop a Minute.

Recently Mr.. Sarsaper told his wife
one morning that he had got about tired
OF buttering his bread with spoon, and
so that day he sent home a refrigerator.
1t was beauty, and he felt proud of it,
so mnch so that he had good deal to
say about it at the store.
81 suppose you have to put ice in it,
don't you" said one of the clerks.
Certainly" said Mr.. Sarsaper; ''but
then it takes very little. It's an I'M
provement on all others ever made Full
OF little boxes and places for all sorts of
things. Keeps everything separate
meat, vegetables, milk and so on, with
out any mixing up. 1t makes hot weather
so much more comfortable, Bob, to pull
up tO.the table and find everything
nice, cool and crisp, instead of limp,
sour and slushy. We wouldn't be with
out 1t again for any money wish you'd
run in and look at it, Bob, the first time
you're going by. It's a curiosity, and l
know you'll get one as soon as you see
it. Don't you bother about ceremony
run in at any time"
About 2 O'Clock one morning, Mr.. Sar
saper was awakened out of his slumber
that always keeps company with an easy
conscience, by his wife poking him in
the ribs, and calling on him to hustle
out, and see what the matter was. The
door was jingling like all possessed.
Mr.. Sarsaper crawled out of bed, and
after banging his nose on the door post
till the blood started, giving himself
black eye against the corner of the man.
tel, and falling down over pretty much
everything in the room, he finally made
his way to the front part of the house,
threw up a window and peered out into
the wet and murky gloom.
"Who's there 81 he demanded, looking
down at the top of an umbrella.
''Me y came in n thick voice from til,
under side of it.
"Who's me-"
Bob"
"Oh it's you, is it? What's the mat
ter, Bob anybody sick ?"
''Oh, no. You see I've been out to |
with some of the boys to
help institute lodge, and I'm just get !
ting back. l happened to think about
that refrigerator of yours as 1 was going
by, and so l thought I'd stop in and see
it, without ceremony, as you said. Come !
down and let me in. I'm in hurry to !,
get home, and can't stop but a minute. -
Mr.. Sarsaper said something that |
would bend the types double if We
should undertake to print it, and slam
med down the window.
He remarked to Bob the next day that
for downright GOODNESS his refrigerator
was bake-oven compared to the prank
prastised on him.

War Horse.

/ was standing in the rear of tn,
Washington, City Post office, one day
says correspondent, and saw a you'll
drive up the queerest-looking animal

ETY. buggy, and came on sideways, with

funny enough to make mule hysterical.

look of inquiry Don't laugh at that
horse" he added.
The animal then turned look on me
which seemed to remonstrate ON her own
account
"You wouldn't think that little bOny
and broken down old thing had once
been ridden in battle and was thor
oughbred, now, would youl' said my
! friend.
"No, 1 wouldn't" And yet the idea
seemed to invoke respect which her
appearance could never suggest. She
was of dun color, less than fifteen
hands high, thin, gaunt and bony, knee
sprung, ind-galled and her hip broken.
His ribs stood out like atarvation and his
broked hip protruded in ghastly man.
ner. walked around her and returned
whence 1 had started "No, I wouldn't.
''Yet it is fact" said he, and then he
gave me her story, which 1 have found
to be true. She was caught wild in
Mexico and was ridden by Confederate
captain. On his being captured his horse
became government property and was
purchased by General Rawlins, then on
General Grants staff By him she was
used as an alternate and was ridden in
several hot engagements. She would
carry man with the speed of the wind
and was admired as thoroughbred. Her
speed and mettle was the subject of gen.
eral comment. Some time after the close
of the war, perhaps after Rawlins'
death, she became the property of Cap
tain Waleott, at army headquarters.
Through General Grant she was brought
to the attention of General Beale and
suggested as n breeder. Beale, who is
an excellent judge, bought her on sight
and placed her on his stock farm. Here
she had three colts, sired by Washing
ton" then owned by Wash. Nailor, the
Washingtonlivery man, and of which colts
'Preston" has a record of 2. 81 and was
sold for S15, 900 She was taken the
same care CT as Grant blooded Arabians.
But 10y an unfortunate accident she had
her hip dislocated and became useless,
even as breeder. When General Beale
came home from abroad he sold her for
a nominal sum and she now carries the
United States mail between Washington
and Georgetown, four trips a day (twen-
ty miles, and two trips on Sunday. She
must now be twenty-eight or thirty
years old Her name and tail are turn
ing gray, like a mans beard, and there
is nothing but the thin nostrils and
shapely head to give hint of her royal
origin. Poor, broken-down, dismantled
steed of war; 1t does seem as if she
should be taken out of that mail wagon
and turned loose in the Presidents
grounds, where she might die in peace
and plenty and in the shadow of the
White House.

went to bed and many laughed at the
sections ghost. On the following day
a great number visited the belfry to see
the curious bell-ringer. 1t was found
that an army of fying-squirrels had cut
the hole in the lattice work, and that
the wind had forced the limb of the
neighboring oak through the opening.
A little prong near the end of the limb
had caught the clapper near its point,
and so the wind made its novel bell
ringer.

Cheap Food.

1t has been quite pertinently remarked
III regard to cook-books generally, that
when the cooks took their pens in hand
they rather had in their minds the prep
aration of dinner-party than the daily
fare of an ordinary household. Such
criticisms, directed toward modern
works on the culinary art, are hardly
just, as both in England and this coun-
try many handy books have been COM
piled, whose chief end is to teach the
ignorant how to oprepare food in the most
economical manner. Perhaps, what Is
not 30 fully explained as it should be in
many of these books, is what might be
called the rationale of food values. The
most inquiring of housewives, thumbing
her cookbook, when she comes across
some page or two devoted to the chemi-
cal composition Of food, generally skips
it, as she is only intent on finding out
how a charlotte russo is to be composnd-
ed. Still, these rather dry pages have
their use, and by no means difficult to
understand. 1t is by no means necessary
that the exact chemical composition of
food, its carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen,
oxygen, sulphur, phosphates and other
mineral salts should be memorized, but
the three specific characteristics of tho
things We eat ought to be remembered.
In the briefest manner, then, food may
be separated into three classes, the al
buminoids, the hydrocarbons, and the
anti-scorbuties. The first are essentially
the builders-up and restorers OF the body
the second are substances which tend to
keep us warm; they are essentially the
Goals which keep the engine going, and
the third are the preventives which keep
off disease and more especially scurvy.
An egg is an albuminoid, butter is a
hydro-carbon, and cabbage an anti
scorbutic. An albuminoid makes tissue.
What men call "the strength" in food is
said to be derived from albuminoids,
but this term is an erroneous one. Men
can and do grow strong and lusty when
partaking of the albuminoids in the most
sparing way. The rice feeders of Hin
dustan are q notable example of this.
The hydrocarbons exist In all the
starches which are found in the cereals,
in sugars and in the fats. The anti
scorbutics, found in certain vegetables,
are as valuable as any other edible sub
stances, though their food value may
not be very great. Now, what is notice
able in all these charscteristiN Of food

is that many single things may posses
In themselves some of these qualities
For instance, meat has in the lean tn

it has even, when fresh, a certain anti
scorbutic power. In milk, too, We hav

anti-scorbutic power. We see, then
that In q certain way nature has givel

laborers can have, so that their thews,
their sinew and muscle, shall be forth

turn has been made, by the analysis of
these alimentary substances, the hydro
gen, oxygen, nitrogen and carbon to an
old English dish. Possibly the classic
pork and beans was brought over from
England to Plymouth Rock. English
writers on the economy of food, Sir
Henry Thompson and DIR. Paxy espe-
cially, direct working people to the ex-
cellence of beans, peas and lentils, when
cooked with fat meats such as bacon,
but wisely require certain simple addi-
tions. Now, why? The beans contain
the starch, the sugar-making properties,
the fat the hydrocarbons. These are
and hydro -carbons, but your
is not present. This want
is supplied by the addition of vegeta-
BILE such as an onion or a carrot. The
value of anti-scorbutics in our food can
not be overlooked. If the poorer classes
can not indulge in salads, the use of
which entails more or less expensive
dressings, resource can be had to sour

An Attack Upon q Farmer.

Aspecial despatch from Scranton, Pa. =,
dated last night, says; "While driving
along near Petersburg, short distance
from Scranton, early this morning, a
farmer named Lucy was surprised by a
party Of desperadoes, who endeavored
to drag him from his wagon. Lucy
whipped his horse, and was getting be-
yond their reach when they followed
him, keeping up a running fire until the
horse fell dead on the road riddled by
their bullets. Then the farmer, becom-
ing desperate, seized u hatchet that lay
in his wagon and leaped out to meet the
ruffians, who had exha1 1sted their revol-
vers without striking him. His deter.
mined attitude had the effect ofdriving
them from the scene and he remained
there until help arrived, nearly an hour
later. Another man who passed that
way shortly before Lucy, says the rur:
fans fired upon hin, but he returned
their fire and they did not follow him."
