Inhalation Of Benzoatc Of Soda.-Pro.
fessor Rokitansky Is cited as among
those who think highly Of the treatment
Of phthisis by inhalatlons of benzoate of
soda. In order that the spray may find
free access to the throat and lungs, he
directs that the patient draw the tongue
forward or hold itdown with a spatula,
and then take deep Inspirations until
coughing Is eXcited-the inhalations to
be repeated until the cough ia no longer
followed by eNpectoration. lie assumes
that tho tubes are then cleared of mu-
Gus, and that the medicine comes into
direct contact with the mucous men,
brane. AS BuchholZ and Klebs have
shown that this drug destroys bacteria
with certainty only when administered
In the proportion Of .l,0O0th of tho
weight OF the body, Dr.. Rokitansky has
his patients tnhale daily one gramme Of
the drug-ln a five per cent solution
for cvory two and one-flfth pounds of
their weight. Ho attributes to this
medication first Of all, destructive
action Oh bacteria, and, in the second
glace, a mechanical action on tho pa
biological secretions, which are rem
dered more liquid, and are more readily
removed from tho air passages.

Il process Of improved tanning, for
the improved treatment Of leather, is
desoI ibed In the technical journals. 1t
appears that, IN this process. iron salts
were. originally resorted to, but no
practically successful results could be
obtained with it, tho iron salts being
found to attack tho leather fibre, de-
stroying It's durability. The addition
Of chrome was found to be gIeat Inn
provement, but the chrome and salts
became partly dissolved by moisture,
thus rendering 1t necessary to protect,
by an absolutely non-solnble coating,
the fibres Of the leather. This end was
at last attained by producing an iron
and chrome soap, and it is by using
this compound, in manner adapted to
the purpose In Wow, that the material
is prepared, the appearance being tnat
Of ordinary leather, though somewhat
lighter than bark-tanned hides. Some
experiments arc reported to test the
the value Of the article produced by
this method, tho results proving very
satisfactory; that is, the tensile 6roak-
Ing strength Of several speclmens was
found to average some four thousand
five hundred ind fifty pounds per
square 1nch, which is about equal to
that of good bark-tanned leather, tho
improved fabric also showing re-
markablo resistance to tho absorption
OF water.

RoPE JUMpINa.-As cooler weather
approaches, the jumping rope will be
moro and moro in tho hands OF the
girls. Properly used it is not an OBJ
jecuonable plaything. But children
cannot be TOO frequently cautioned
against jumping against time or COM
petlng TO see who oan jump the great
est number of times without stopping.
In an essay on popular customs and
public health In the recently published
annual report of the Department of
Statistics OF Indiana. DR.. j. w. Her
vey of indianapolis lays great stress on
the danger OF this practice. None, he
say2, Is more injurious; and in illus
tralion Of It's evil effects he mentions u
case Of real occurrence in that city.
The patient, u girl of twelve years,
WAS dead when he reached the house.
lie says, ION inquiry l learned that
she nau Jumped the rope at school, a
Iew days before. 500 times. Think of
QUO rusEes of blood upon the little
neart in quick succession! No wonder
had to make the certificate of death,
'LmOoll, or clOt In the heart, caused
by ovcrheaG and jumping straight up
QUO times.'" Not only does this prac-
tlce throw a great and sometimes kill
my strain upon the heurt, but it often
causes serious Injury to the joints Of
Tie knees and hlps and to tho spine.
The muscular and nervous exhaustion
duo 10 long-conLiuued jumping must
also be Injurious.

The Course Of lightning Flash
Prof. TAFT, Of Edinburgh, insists that
when people think they see a lightning
flash 60 upward or downward they
must be mistakan. The duration Of a
lightning flash Is less than tho mil
lionth part Of second, and tile eye
cannot possibly follow movements of
such extraordinary rapidtty. The ori-
gin Of the mistake seems, he says, to be
a subjective one, viz, that the central
parts of the retina are more sensitive,
by practice, than the rest, and there
tore that the portion of the flash which
Is seen directly affects tho brain sooner
than the rest. Hence spectator look.
Ing toward either end of a flash very
naturally fancics that end TO be It's
starting point.

by somo ono present at tho marriage
feast how he, bachelor, could consist

good mans answer was significant: !:
"In mans life thero are two periods
when he is likely to marry--one when
he Is young and has no sense, the
other when he is old and lost his sense.
He was glad to inform them that he

ToCLEANsE SCoRcHED LARD.-When
the lard gets scorched by frying
doughnuts, rs it sometimes will (es-
pecially If The girls are doing it) it can
be made nice again by sllcing q raw po-
tato into thin slices dropping them
into the kettle and frying till quite
brown. They absorb all the bitter
taste, and collect the dark spots on the
surface, and make the lard tit for use
again. Another way to cleanse lard in
the frying pan is, just before you set
your kettle away, TO puur in some
boiling hot water, and lee it stand and
cool. When you wish to use 1t again,
take knife and rnn around the edge
Of the lard; lit it from the kettle, and
lay 1t bottom side up Oh nAt plate !;
scrapc of all the brown coating for the
soap grease; turn out the water and
cleanse the kettle; If any water stands
III drops on the lard, let 1t drain OF,
and your lard Is pure and sweet.

AGRIOUI.TIJRE.

FAT BAcoN.-The English object to
our hogs because they are too tat, and
we are advised to feed more barley and
less corn. This, says Joseph Harris, Is
all very we'll; but II our hogs ara too
tat (Which l very much dOubt,) the
way to correct the difficulty Is not
merely by feeding less corn, but by In
Producing better breeds, and adopting
better system Of feeding and manage
msnt. A large, lean hog does not iur-
nish the pork or bacon which either
the American or English market re-
quires. Large boned, lean hogs are
not scarce. II the improved breeds are
TOO tat, 1t fs becauso we do not manage
them properly. We may have to let
them get more growth before we fatten
them. Instead Of selling them at nine
or ten months old, we may have to

BICARDONATE OF SODA IN TOOTH-
ACHE-Dr. Dack worth contributes q
short memorandum on this subject.
He was called on to treat a oase OF
very severe toe thache, and tried vari-
Gus ordinary remedies, including
chloroform and carbolio acid, without
any benefit to the patient. He then
remembered having read that the pain
might be relieved by holding in tho
mouth q solution of bicarbonato OF
soda. He ut once gave The patient halt
drachm In al ounce of water, and co
his as;onishment, the pain ceased i'm
medlately, and complete relief was Sc
cured. Ae thinks that as tho remedy
Is so simple, and the disease so distress
sing and often intractable, this
treatment may be worthy Of notice and
imitation.
