Bad News for Water Drinkers.
[Richard A. Proctor.


The age OF the earth is placed by some at
five hundred millions of years, by others one
hundred million years; and still others, OF
later time, among them the Duke of Argyle,
place it at ten million years. None place it
lower than ten millions, knowing what pro-
cesses have been gone through. Other plan
cts go through the same process. The rea-
son the other planets differ so much from the
earth is that they are in so much earlier or
later stage of existence. The earth must be-
come old. Newton surmised, although he
could give no reason for it, that the earth
would at one time lose all its water and be-
come perfectly dry. Since then it has been
found that Newton was correct.
AS the earth keeps cooling it will become
porous, and great cavities Will be formed in
the interior, which will take in the water.
1t is estimated that this process is now in
progress, so far that the water diminishes at
about the rate of the thickness of a sheet of
writing paper each year. At this rate in g.
100000 years the water viii have sunk a
mile, and in 100000 years every trace of
water will have disappeared from the face of
the globe. The nitrogen and oxygen in the
atmosphere are also diminishing all the
time 1t is in an inappreciable degree, but
the time will come when the air will be so
thin that no creatures we know could breathe
it and live; the time will come when the
world cannot support life. That will be the
period of old age, and then will come death.

Another Libel on Women.

When woman has new pair of shoes
sent home she performs altogether differently
from man. She never shoves her toes into
them and yanks until she is red in the face
and all out of breath, and then goes stamp
ing and kicking around, but carefully pulls
them on part way, twitches them off again
to take a last look to see that she has got the
right one, pulls them on again, looks at them
dreamily, says they are just right, then takes
another look, stoops suddenly to smooth out
wrinkle, twists around and surveys them
sideways, and exclaims: Mercy, how loose
they arew looks at them again square in
front. works her foot around so they won't
hurt her quite SO much, takes them of, looks
at the heel, the toe, the bottom and the in
side, puts them on again, walks up and
down the room once or twice, remarks to her
better half that she won't have them at any
price, tits down the mirror SO she can see
how they look, turns in every possible direc-
tion and nearly dislocates her neck trying
to see how they look from that way, backs
off, steps up again, takes thirty or forty fare
well looks. say they make her feet look awful
big, and never will do in the world, puts
them off and on three or four times more,
asks her husband what he thinks about it.
and then pays no attention to what he says,
goes over it all again, and finally says she
will take them It's a very simple matter,

How to Prevent Diphtheria.

In an article ON this subject, in the Saai-
tarium, Dr. Edwin Maxon says: ITO prevent
diphtheria, then, and SO finally exterminate
it, every man, woman and child throughout
the land and the world should be lie brought
to obey the laws of life and health. Parents
should regularly feed, properly clothe and
duly restrain all children before they come
to the years of understanding and account
ability. This alone would do much. A late
prominent physician of Paris estimated that
5000 children had died in that city, during the
thirty years of his practice there, from short
sleeves, short pants and other kindred impru-
dence in the dressing of children. And l am
fully convinced that as large proportion are
sacrificed, in towns at least, in this country,
from the same cause-all for wicked fash
ion. And from careful observation in this
country and abroad am confident that at
least as many more are carried off by inn
proper food and irregularity in taking it
together with poisonous candies, and other
unwholesome and indigestible trash, that no
child or any other person should eat"

Titles for Ladies.
IAppleton's Journal.


What awkward prefxes Mrs. and Miss are
to the names of our wOmen1 Mr.. is dis
tasteful enough as a masculine title, but that
the unpronouncable Mrs. and the kissing
Miss should have survived as long as they
have, is reflection upon the good sense OF
English speaking people. Mistress for Mrs.
might be revived-indeed, it would be a
great improvement; but how inferior even
this term is to Madame of the French! For
Mademoiselle we have actually no exact
equivalent, for this I'M may be used as a
either as prefix to the name or separately
as title, while the use of Miss without the
name to follow is a vulgarism of the deepest
dye. This fact leads to many awkward
nesses How shall person address young
lady whose name he does not know? To say
Miss" is abominable: to say Madam" if
she is very young, is absurd; to borrow
"Mademoiselle" would be an atfectation. The
language absolutely provides nothing for
such an emergency, unless word fairly OBJ
solete in this use is revived-the word lady.
We occasionally hear common people address
a lady simply as lady, while the better in
formed. as they are supposed to be, stumble
at Madam" or are guilty of the impropriety
of saving Miss" 1t could be adopted more
freely in this country than in England, be-
cause here it is not title of rank, and no
exclusive class is entitled to it.

The Opinion of the Supreme Court in
Burke Case.
SAN FRANCISCO, June l, 1SS1

SAN FRANCISCO, June ], 1851.
In deciding the case of Burke VS.. The AS
SCISSOR, on the question of taxing certificates
of stock, to-day Justice Ross, in delivering
the opinion, held that the Constitution Of the
State does not require or authorize double
taxation. On the contrary, it clearly forbids
it. The stock of any corporation consists OF
it's franchise and such other property as o
corporation may own. When, therefore, all
of the property of corporation is assessed,
its franchise and all of it's other property Of
every character, then all the stock of the cor
poration is assessed and the mandate of the
Constitution is complied with This prop
erty is held by corporation in trust for the
stockholders who are the beneficial owners
of it in certain proportions called shares, and
which are usually evidenced by certificates
of stock. A share of each stakeholder is
undoubtedly property, but it is an interest in
the property held by the corporation and
nothing more When the property of the
corporation is assessed to it, and a tax there
on paid, who but the stockholders pay it ?
1t is true, it is all paid from the treasury OF
the corporation before the money therein is
divided; but it is substantially the same
thing as if paid from the pockets Of indi-
vidual stockholders. Justices Sharpstein,
Mckee, Thornton, and McKinstry concur in
the decision. Chief Justice Morrison con-
ours so far as the opinion relates to savings
bank deposits, expressing no opinion on the
question OF the taxation of certificates OF
stock Justice Myrick concurs except as to
assessment of savings bank deposits, on
which subject he expresses no opinion. In
business circles the opinion gives great salts
faction, and is considered to have an import
ant bearing on the interests of the State.

"He was the most brilliant man New Orleans
ever had, though erratic. He received fee
of 100000 from the city Of New Orleans to
represent her in suit with the General
Government. He never knew what became
of the money, it went SO fast. When asked
to proceed to Washington to finish the mat
ter, he demanded $4,000 more for about two
weeks work, and he got it. His life was full
of brilliant episodes, accompanied with reck-
lessness. He shot the Speaker of the Legls-
lature for speaking against his wife. An i'm
putation had been made against the lady's
Character, and Grymes said he didn't consider
the truth of that at all, and if 1T were true,
he didn't hold the man in the case RESPONSE

talked about it, then it became my business.
He married the widow of a worthy and emil

the time, residing on Staten Island, N. T. he
paid her visit every year, and they were
friendly. but it was impossible for woman

To Cure Foot Rot in sheep.
IOhio Farmer


The preparation Of the foot is just as es
sential as the remedy, for if every part of the
disease is not laid bare the remedy will not
effect a cure A solution of blue vitriol, as
strong as you can bear your hand in for
moment, having the liquid three or four
inches deep, or deep enough to cover all the
affected parts; then hold the diseased foot in
this liquid ten minutes, or long enough to
penetrate to all the diseased parts; put the
sheep on a dry barn floor for twenty hours
to give it chance to take effect. In every
case where l have tried it, it has effected
cure, and have never given a sheep medi
cine internally for foot rot. This remedy l
call dead shot when the foot is thoroughly
prepared, but more expeditions way, and
where you don't hardly hope to exterminate
the disease, but keep it in subsection, is this:
After preparing the feet as for vitriOl cure,
take butter of antimony, pour oil of vitriol
into it slowly until the heating and boiling
process ceases, and apply with swab This
remedy works quicker, is stronger than the
vitriol, and is just as safe, but its mode OF
application renders it less sure.

A Very Crooked Road.

boarded the local for Virginia.
We'll, rather" was the reply. There are
several places between here and Virginia
where a passenger can hand cigar to the
engineer"
by Jove, that's astonishing must watch
out for those curves, you know"
He watched, and though snaked around
pretty we'll between the tunnel and Scales,
failed to swing such tremendous circle.
"Look here" said he to Follett when they
arrived at Virginia, where was the place
where passenger in the rear car could hand
cigar to the engineer ?"
why, one point was Mound House; there
is good saloon there, and there is plenty OF
time for any passenger to get off the car, get
q cigar and hand it to the engineer"

THE TWO AGES.

Folks were happy as days were long
In the old Arc"dian times;
When life seemed only dance and song
In the sweetest Of all sweet climes.
Our world grows bigger, and, stage by stage
As the pitilcss years have rolled,
We've quite forgotten the Golden Age
And come TO the Age of Gold.
Time went by III sheepish way
Upon Thessaly's plains of yore.
In the nineteenth century lambs at play
Mean mutton, and nothing more.
Our Swains at present are far too sage
To live as one lived of old;
so they couple the crook of the Golden Age
With a hook in the Age of Gold.
From Corydons reed the mountain round
Hear news of his latest fame;
And Tityrus made the woods resound
With echoes OF Dapmnes name
They kindly left Us Il lasting gauge
OF their musical art, were told;
And the Pandean pipe of the Golden Age
Brings mir;h of the Age of Gold.
Dwellers in huts and in marble halls.
From shepperdess up to queen
Cared little for bonnets, and less for sha wis,
And nothing for crinoline.
But now. simplicitys not the rage,
And it's funny to think how cold
The dress they wore in the Golden Age,
Would seem in the Age Of Gold.
Electric telegraphs, printing, gas.
Tobacco. balloons, and steam,
Are little events that have come to pass
Since the days of the old regime;
And, spite of Lempriere's dazzling page,
I'd give-though it might seem bold
4 hundred years of the Golden Age
For year of the Age of Gold.
