TRUSSES l!

Fifteen years since we commenced the manufacture of Trusses, Supporters, and va rious appliances for the relief and cure of the various weaknesses and deformities which af1ict not less than one-tenth of the commit nifty. With what success our efforts have been crowned is known only to the thousands who, of their own accord, or following the advice of their physicians, have placed them selves in our hands.
 Thetreatment of Hernia has been with study, and experience has taught that there is no one truss or appliance suited to the wants of all, but that each individual case requires special consideration. For this reason, while we manufacture many applian- ces of our own, we have constantly availed ourselves of the inventions of others until on our shelves may be found nearly every truss of any value in market. Considering our comp etc stock and long experience in the se- lection and application of various appliances, we are able to offer special inducements and to guarantee perfect satisfaction.

Tho French Army.

The military correspondent OF the
st. james Gazette says. the French
lrmy maneuvers as exhibited recently
ire very unsatisfactory TO all who wish
o see France take her place again as a
Itrong military power. 1t is evident
hat the officers are not yet half up to
heir work, nor tho men half trained.
Reckless exposure in mass to the en-
,my's fire, extreme carelessness in out
post duties-an old fault OF the French
irmy-volleys fired at an enomy's guns
1t ranges of two thousand yards when
his infantry was much neare and more
dangerous at the moment, expenditure
II ammunition and no means of sup
plying the deficiency, loss Of opportu-
aities for attacking at the right mo-
nent, nc measure taken for meeting a
ianking movement. officers kicking the
nen-all these things show a condition
If complete unreadiness for war. 1t
nay be said that the pick of the peace
.rmy is now either In Africa or on its
way there, but this does not mend the
natter. 1t only shows that France has
blundered in great matters rs much as
her legions do In the details of every
lay tactics. The common reply Of
English officers to criticisms on minor
laults is that they will right themselves
n war, and perhaps the French say the
Iame. But nothing can be more untrue
,r unsafe TO act upon. 1t would DO
quite as accurate to assert that LAWYERS
would be successful in conducting their
Ease. or doctors in saving their patients,
q they left till the moment of action

HOW TO APPLY WATER TO FIRE.

An old fireman Of the State of Maine
gives the following wisdom to one of the
papers of that State. Our hose boys
would do well to bear this in mind, as it
may prove of use to them:
One gallon of water at the bottom of
fire will do more to quench it than ten
gallons at the top. "Play low" is the
true motto for the fireman. If the en-
CINE that reached the Summer street fire
in Boston had burst into the warehouse
and played into the goods elevator,
where the fire broke out, it would prob
ably have saved fifty millions of dollars.
To play on the roof of house on fire is
to waste water; the roof was made to
shed water; the rain does not put out a
kitchen fire, nor would river flowing
bodily on roof put out a kitchen fire.
Be sure to play low; get the water near
the fire, and then you need not pour out
river. A few gallons at the bottom of
q fire will rise in clouds of steam when
the fire is rising, and will quench it.
Even heap of rubbish turns water like
a partial roof. A gill of water thrown
in at the bottom of a crate, equals a
quart thrown on top. For similar
reason, water ON the windward side is
more effective than on the leeward. I
am speaking now of moderate fire,
where there are only two or three houses
burning. The big blaze on the leeward
looks fearful, but it cannot be affected
by playing on that side. Throw your
water in the bed Of Goals under the retort
that is sucking them, and it will 60 out,
that is to say, play at the bottom of the
windward side of a fire, and you take the
surest and speediest way to quench the
whole leeward side, blazes included.

A pair of Bradford, Pa, husbands,
have hit on short and easy way out Of
matrimonial mesalliance by trading
wives. And the wives seem to enjoy the
exchange more than their spouses. Four
miserable souls made happy for life by a
trade! This is q deal better than the
method too many miserable husbands
take to get rid of their wives. No Cor
oners inquest. No trial for murder.
Not even . divorce suit. Really, this is
great progress.
The Pioche weekly record. [volume] (Pioche, Nev.) 1877-1900, 1881-03-19

The annual meeting of the Chamber of
Shipping held in London, February 18th,
the Chairman, in moving the adoption of
the report, was able to show that there
is no present danger of England ceasing
to be the general carrier. The English
effective tonnage at the present time is
10000, 900, while that of all other flags
put together is only II, 900, 900, and the
increasing activity Of English ship-yards
may be gathered from the fact that on
the 3lst of December, 1879, the tonnage
under construction was but 45O, 900 tons
as compared with 500, 900 tons at the end
of 1880.
