NoTe1ty Carrjage-W orlss, whose office and
wareroonls are at ::sS State street, in this city,
has for years been recognized as the most
perfect vehicle Of its kind and is in use by
all the leading drivers Of the country. In
this country the Brown sulky is so well
known, and its merits so universally rccog-
nized that it is i'll use from one end of the
land to the other. In Europe trotting is be-
coming popular, and, as d natural conse-

Timely Suggestions as to Treatment
of Persons Overcome by the Heat.

/. Garry the patient carefully, but
promptly, to the nearest shade.
2. Secure for him as much circulation
of wholesome air as may be possibly OBJ
tanned.
8. If the skin is hot, sponge with cold
water or ice.
4. If the head is very hot, and the ar
teries of the neck pulsate violently, ap-
ply ice.
5. Give two teaspoonfuls of good
brandy or whisky every ten or fifteen
minutes. The addition of two or three
drops of laudanum to each dose of the
stimulant prevents vomiting or purging,
which is liable to occur and often to
prove fatal.
6. Don't give large draughts of cold
water or any other fluid, even if the pa
tent is able to swallow them.
Z. Don't allow the patient to be moved
or raised from recumbent position I'M
til sufficiently recovered to render it
safe to do so. This seldom occurs for
hours, and often not for days, after the
attack.
8. Send at once for a doctor, not for
half q dozen. Otherwise valuable time
may be lost by differences in opinion as
to whether the case is one of congestion
or exhaustion.
1t is always safer for non-professional
prescribers, and generally safer for doc
tors, to pursue methods of treatment
calculated to relieve more or less pro-
found exhaustion of vital powers.-Ez-

Hens Plucking Feathers.

I notice frequent inquiries for the
cause of hens plucking their own and
their associates feathers for the pur-
pose of eating them. Have had long
and successful experience in keeping
fowls, and for many years after COM
mencement never had an instance of tho
kind in my flock. Later there were .
few instances in which the disposition
was manifested to do so on the part of .
very few of the lot. Not knowing the
cause, and supposing that the foolish
freak would soon be done with, as had
once or twice before happened, al
lowed some of the obnoxious birds to
live over in my next years flock, as they
were good layers. During the winter
following, the vicious habit of the old
fowls remained about the same in de-
gree as had been manifested by the in
fected ones the summer and autumn
previous; but in the spring and sum-
mer following nearly the whole flock of
from seventy-five to eighty fowls be-
came infected with the mania, until the
disposition to be picked was apparently
as great and pleasurable as to pluck,
until nearly the whole lot became hide
Gus in appearance, the remaining few
untouched only serving to widen the
contrast between themselves and the de-
nuded ones.
The entire lot were good layers, and
in excellent health and condition gener-
ally, having the free range of all out
doors" on unlimited territory, in ia
vorable locality, both in summer and
winter, with capacious and excellent
shelter, and every variety of food and
accomplishments, milk included, which
are usually supposed to be beneficial to
fowls. Thus it will be seen that at the
time they were the most inveterate in
this habit they were enjoying the free
range of woods and pasture, meadow
and field, with an abundance of food
beside; but they would never abandon
the trick, but would usually impart it to
new corners, until they were killed.
Hence I have never found any remedy
but to kill off the entire lot and COM
mence with anew 1ock.-Cor. NeD Eng
land Farmer.

-"Can't hurry Nature, can't we!
Well, We can, then, and we do. It is
true you can't make hen set before
she is ready, but there il an artificial
hatchery on the Hudson River that dis
counts all the hens in America getting
pullets for the market, and matches out
IA chicks before the natural hen in the
nearest barn-yard can get q nest
scratched into shape to suit her fastidi-
Gus taste. And we hustle Nature with
hot-beds, and fool her all winter with
conservatories, we take the sting out Of
lightning with . platinum tip. We make
water run up hill and we fly past the
wind and the birds with railroad trains.
Nature isn't of very much account in
this country in this year of grace 1881.

Fresh Air.

Too many houses are closed up at the
back in America, there are no through
draughts; front and back open and a
current set a-going, that's fresh air. Air
stagnates, and curtains drawn, blinds
down, carpets on floors, doors closed,
and one bit of awindow just opened
goodness, where's the life to come from
to breathe in so many cubic inches even
of oxygen!
Now, then. in the morning let your
maid open your street door for an hour.
and set something airing, some current
into those stagnant air layers, that stuff
each other up and can neither move up
nor down, nor in, nor out.
Ladies are faint, children droop, ba-
bies die, men swear, and all for want Of
little current of fresh air just passing
through the house.
Look to it and open your house-door
the first thing in the morning, and if you
can, set q current going through it,

Mrs. McSpilkins, who belongs to
one of the Oldest families in Austin, is
very domestic in her habits, and does
not pay much attention to what is going
on outside. She had heard of the com
ct, but did not have a very clearly de-
fined idea as to what it was. When it
first appeared, her little boy, Billy, said
one evening: ''Ma, may I 60 out and
see the cometp'' "Not tonight, my
son, it's too dark; wait until tomorrow
when there is daylight" Next morn
ing she told Billy he might 60 out and
see it, but be careful and not 60 close to
it, and above all things, not to pull its
tail or fool around among any other ami
mails in the tent.-Ieras SJtings.

Italian needlewomen of the sixteenth

Italian needlewomen of the sixteenth
and seventeenth centuries were renown-
ed especially for their skill in what was
known as applique work. Very much
of this was done in converts. Two
fabrics were selected, as, for example,
velvet and silk, and the same pattern,
usually conventional one, was traced
upon each, and then carefully cut out.
The two were then carefully laid one
upon the other, and the edges concealed
by use of fine cord or silk, or worked
over in buttonhole stitch. This style OF
work was very much in demand in the
decoration of churches, and some of the
old Milanese work is very beautiful, the
selection and the arranging of colors
giving the effect of deep relief upon
lighter ground.

"A good mother, whose five-year-old
boy is exceptionally conscientious and
devout, has often been smitten with a
pang of apprehension lest her darling
might be too good for this world. The
thought came into her mind the other
day, when her head was bowed by the
side of her child's at church in prayer
time; but this pain was quickly Danish
ed by very different feeling when the
little boy said to her in q low whisper:
''Mamma, can't 60 to the circus to-
morrow There's going to be a horse on

HOyen or BlOat.

When cow over-feeds on green fod-
der, and especially if it is wet, the mass
ferments in the rumen and produces a
large quantity of gas, which bloats the
animal and distends the stomach. The
proper treatment in this case is to give a
quart of water in which one ounce of
carbonate of ammonia has been mixed;
to put stick, such as piece of broom
handle across the mouth and tie it there
to the horns, to cause the COW to eject
the gas. If this is not effective, the
paunch should be opened on the left side
of the animal, in the center of triangle
formed by the hip bone, the last rib and
the short projections of the backbone
for the three angles or points. If no
other instrument is at hand, o sharp
pointed penknife may be used. The
skin is pushed or drawn little out of
place and the knife pushed through to
penetrate the paunch, taking such a di-
rection as not to wound the kidneys. The
direction is slanting downwards. A
piece of quill, securely tied to q string,
is then put into the opening, and the gas
pours out and at once relieves the ami
NAL. The quill is left in the hole with
something tied to it to prevent its enter
ing, and as gas is formed it escapes. A
dose of sixteen ounces of epson salts
dissolved in hot water should be given
as soon as possible, and, if necessary,
copious injections of soapy water. When
gas is no longer formed, the quill may
be drawn out, and as the skin returns to
its place it covers the opening through
the muscle to the paunch, and the
wounds heal very soon. An instrument
known as a trocar and canula Is used
vi n perfect safety in such cases.-N. =.

been proved by weighing that there is
about as much substance in an acre Of
clover roots as in an acre of tops. II
the root half of clover can be harvested
or consumed with az little expense, it
will Weld as much profit as the part
grown above ground. We have seen
the roots of clover harvested and cousum-
ed by herd of roofing hogs, at a great
saving of other feed, and therefore with
great profit in the excellent quality OF
fieshy pork so cheaply and naturally
produced. This gives great satisfaction
To the owner, who derives adouble profit
from his clover field by allowing the
hoes to root and live, and thrive and
keep healthy, while making the very
best quality of pork in their own natural
way.
The French are sometimes laughed at
with an assumption of superior wisdom
because thew consume the flesh of the
muscular horse as food. But when the
fact that one pound of no Sc flesh
which is as pure as the food it is formed
from is select and wholesome-contains
as much nourishing food as fre pounds
of pork of average fairness is considered,
it is seen that after all the French con-
sumers of horse flesh have q very prac-
teal appreciation of the value OF muscle
or flesh as food. And it is entirely prob
able that if the horses carcass was fat,
which is not food, instead of flesh, which
is very nutritious food, the fat would be
less appreciated, because its food value
would be small in extent.-Cor. Country
