Temperature and Respiration.

Washington Correspondence NsiU York
Stdr-The average temperature or nat
ural heat of the human body in good con-
dition of health is 9812 degreesl98.5 Fab
renheit). The 9Sth degree is marked on
the thermometers as blood heat. Cases
are on record to which the temperature
rose to 1903 in children and 107 in adults,
but 105 is regarded as, almost certain
death, and 104 as extremely dangerous
Raving yellow feaver patients are said
rarely to go above 106. The Presidents
temperature has been as low $50, only
four tenths of u degree above normal.
Last night it reached the highest point,
1923. The surgeons ascribed this un-
usual rise (it had not previously being go
ing above 101 and fractions) to the excite
ment of the patient produced by the
hammering and other noises and stirs
that are necessary to the introduction OF
pipes for compressed air.
The Presidents respiration has varied
10 to "a. In health, when entirely free
from any exciting influence, the natural
respiration of an adult is from IA to 20,
but in cases of sickness and of wounds it
has been recorded as low as 7 and as high
as 100 per minute. This it will be seen
that while these outward indications in
the Presidents case mark him as a very
sick man, they are not such as to warrent
the theory that the doctors are mislead
ing the people about his general or partic
ular symptoms.

The Republican party travels largely
upon it's professions of freedom from the
spirit of caste. 1t talks about the clause
in the Declaration of Independence
which asserts that as all men are created
free and equal. 1t makes pretty speeches
about the negro, gets his vote and gives
him nothing. In the exhuberance of its
enthusiasm against the spirit of caste, it
pats the leprous Chinaman on the back,
And bids this pestilential curse welcome

fused to nominate Mr.. Seasongood for the
Office of Lieutenant Governor simply and
only because he was Jew. The Demo-
Gratis observe more democratic theory.
Democracy does not ask concerning the
religious creed of any candidate for its
fayors. The Democratic party sends
BENJAMIN F. Jonas, of Louisiana, an
Israelite, to the Senate of the United
states. Boston Democrats sent Mr..
Morse, an Israelite, to the House of Rep
resentatives. But the Republicans Of
Ohio refuse to give to gentleman of high
character and Of unquestionable capabili-

and small powers-for no other reason
than that he was Jew. This is the Re-
publican illiberality placed alongside its
professions of liberality. y.-Cin. Enquirer.

A Democratic Awakening.

Senator Butler, of South Carolina,
thinks the course taken by the Demo
Gratis in thesSenate during the late ses-
sion has greatly strengthened the Ma
tional party.
This seems to be SO. The Democratic
party has certainly become possessed of
aquahty within the last few months,
which, it was supposed, had passed be-
yond its grasp-nerve. 1t seems now to
manifest some confidence in itself and
in its ability to accomplish results. There
is less hesitation, less timidity, less awk-

DONE" The special session was of value
to the party in bringing out this feel

feated often, but it will never die
This hat become sort of political pro-
verb; and it is true. But of what prac-
tical use is such party? What right
has it to live? For twenty years Demo
Gratis have been Democrats on principal
solely. The encouragement that arises
from victory; the confidence that springs
from sense of real Importance, have
both been denied them. They have
fought in that time five National battles,
and, in effect, have lost them all. They
won in 1875, but their, victory was null
lifted. They lost in 1880, when every
seeming advantage was on their side.
The way to succeed is to succeed. In
political conflicts party must have
pluck. 1t should never be resigned to
defeat until defeat,is assured. The Dem
ocracy has need of pluck during all these
years; the absence Of the attribute has
really been the cause of many fail
ure. ... .,.
Senator Butler looks forward to bet
ter day. He thinks the long delayed
keynote has been struck at last Here
after Democrats will deserve victory by
bravelv fighting for it. They will sur
render when beaten and not before.
When they triumph they will hold to
their honors.
For the good of the country this should
be true. Let us hope it is.-Washington

The wires went down in the river and
only meagre details can be- given. 1t
seems that two currents of air swept the

The time has been in this country, and not
q great number of years ago, when many far
mers found almost insurmountable Difficult
ties in the way of the introduction of good
stock but that time has passed away. OBJ
stacles which presented themselves disappear
ed, and it is no longer an open question
whether or not it is good policy to breed,
grow and fatten the best The great cost of
thoroughbred stock, at one time, was a barri-
er in the way of its general use, but breed
ing has now grown to be vast industry, and
prices of good individual sires and dams have
been so reduced as to place them nearer the
reach of all than ever before. The hard
times of few years back prevented many
farmers from wedding out trashy breeding
stock, the means for making desirable substi-
tuition being actually Improbable; but this
difficulty is now removed. The general I'M
remunerative condition of the fat stock trade
was another impeachment to those desiring to
raise their standard of breeding; but this
trouble no longer exists. There actually are
no obstacles in the way of general improve
ments at this time which are worth consider
ing On the contrary there is an incentive to
the introduction of good blood. 1t is one of
the urgent demands of the day, and if the
American people would become, as they can,
the regular feeders of Europe, it must be
needed. The standard quality of the stock
on our fat stock markets can, with proper
effort, be raised fifty per cent within the
next two years time without any financial
trouble whatever. pittsburgh StOckmdn.

There are two advantages sought in fall
plowingj one is, getting the work advanced
so that spring operations may be relieved
and the other is, improvement to the soil
through the action of frost. Neither of these
advantages would be found in very early fall
blowing, say for instance, early in Septem-
Der. If were to direct the work with a
view of obtaining the fullest and best results,
/ would have it done the day before winter
freezing, SO that the land might be left as
loose possible, to aid frost in penetrating
to the greatest depth. 1t will be understood
by any farmer who gives the subject even
slight thought, that very early blowing must
have its effect neutralized, to some extent at
least, by beating rains-that the loose earth,
even without much rain, must settle to its
former compact state and the labor be lost.
When land is plowed just before it is to be
locked by frost, it will be held loose until a
general break-perhaps until spring That
is the condition to give the greatest sdvan-
tage. Frost reduces clods by its expansive
power. 1t takes the smallest and the largest
Jumps and expands them, thus destroying CO.
hesion, 80 when frost leaves they fall into
fragments or into finely pulverized soil. So
reduced they are fit for use. Frost in this
sense performs the same work we seek to ac-
complish by blowing and narrowing. The
more we can get of it the better, hence the
wisdom of late blowing, for in the soil fresh
ly loosened it will penetrate deeper and do
more work than in a compact soil. do not
say fall blowing is always advantageous, for
the facts l have cited are not applicable in all
cases. Land already too open certainly can
not be benefited mechanically by an agency
sure to magnify the fault But there are few
farms of heavy clay, and a more solid subsoil,
that will not feel the ameliorating influence
of judioious fall blowing repeated from year
to year, as occasion may require. The effect
can be measured easily by comparisons that
every farmer should make until he has intel
lgent understanding of the true require
ments Let him pillow part in fall and part
in spring TO determine where the advantage
lies, He will soon see that fall blowing,
properly performed, has the effect of tighten
ing labor, or at least distributing it over the
season in such manner as to lesson its cost
and its hardships. and he will have greater
breadth, and very possibly better crops to
harvest.-W A. 4. IN ElmirG Farmer $

HURRIED EATING. is a mistake TO eat
quickly. Mastication performed in haste
must be imperfect even with the best of
teeth, and due admixture of the salivary Sc
erection with the food cannot take place.
When a crude mass of inadequately crushed
muscular fibre, or undivided solid material
Of any description, is thrown into the stom-
ach, it acts as a mechanical irritant, and sets
up a condition in the mucous membrane lin
ing that organ which greatly impedes, if it
does not altogether prevent, the process of
digestion. When the practice of eating
quickly and filling the stomach with unpre-
pared food is habitual, the digestive organ is
rendered incapable of performing its proper
functions. Either a much larger quantity of
food than would be necessary under natural
conditions is required, or the system suffers
from lack of nourishment. Those animals
which were intended to feed hurriedly were
either gifted with the power of rumination or
provided with gzzards. Man is not so furn-
ished, and it is fair to assume that he was in
tended to eat slowly. Lancet.

CIDER FOR KEEPING AND FOR YNEGAR.-M.
II. W., Wrightstown, Penn. Cider that is
made from early apples will not keep; the
apples must be winter kinds and well ripened.
There are some kinds of apples specially pre-
ferred for making cider, as the Harrison,
Campfeld, Smiths Cider, Russet, etc. But
good cider can be made from any well ripen-
ed late apples, after the cool days of Novem-
Der have come and the frosts have destroyed
the germs which are floating in the atmos-
phere, aud which produce decay. The APP
pies should be perfectly sound the cider, if
desired for long keeping, should be boiled
down one half, and then put into clean cask
previously sulphured by burning some sui
phur in wisp of paper in it. The cask
should be closed tightly and kept in n cool.
airy place. When it is to be made into vine
gar, the cider should be kept in warm place
and the bunghole of the cask left open, COW
cred only with a piece of thin muslin.

To MAKE THE IDEAL Cur OF COFFEE, brown
and grind the berry at home; it is more
trouble, but the result is so satisfactory that
you will be more than paid for your labors.
Then have your water boiling when it is
poured over the coffee. If you use the or
binary tin coffee-pot, be sure to stuff something
in the nose to keep in the steam and frag-
rance land, by the way, do not try to use one
of these for a lifetime Our own coffee-pot be-
ing sent to the tin shop to be repaired, we tried
the experiment of making coffee in new tin
pail with tightly fitting cover, and such cof-
fee have we had that the tin pail has been in
use month. 1t is of course little extra
trouble to pour it into presentable pot for
the table, but it is enough better to pay.
There is nothing so nice to settle the coffee
as an egg. Mix the egg with the ground
coffee before pouring hot water on. II eggs
are expensive, you may economic by meas
uring the coffee for two mornings and divid-
ing the egg or mix the coffee, adding a lit
tie cold water, and divide this, taking great
care to cover that which is left very closely.

An English farmer has invented method
of curing hay by an artificial process By
means of tubes penetrating the stack or mass
of hay the hot air is exhausted from the CEN
trail parts, thus forcing current of cold air
through the mass from the outside to replace
it. In the cool, moist climate of England,
where there are few good hay days, practi-
cal method of curing hay by artificial means
would seem to be desirable; and even in this
country, if some process could be devised by
which our hay could be safely stored in a
greener condition, there would be the advan-
tage at least of improving its quality.
