PREVENTION OFHYDR0PHOBIA.

M. Pasteur and other French savante
have lately been devoting special atten-
ton to hydrophobia. The great author
ity on germs has, in fact, definitely an
nounced that he does not intend to rest
until he has made known the exact ma
ture and life-history Of this terrible dis
ease, and discoveredame ofpreventing
or curing it. The most curious result
yet attained in this direction, however,
has been announced by Prof. V. Galtier,
Of the Lyons Veterinary School. This
inquirer has found, in the first place,
that if the virus of rabies be injected
into the veins of sheep, the animal
does not subsequently exhibit any
symptoms ofhydrophobia. This in itself
would be sufficiently curious result to
justify attention, though its Importance,
except as con6rmatory, becomes less
striking when it is remembered that M.
Pasteur has lately shown that the spe-
cial indus Of the disease appears to be
the nervous tissue, and particularly the
ganglionic centers. But there is this
further curious consequence: Sheep
which have thus been treated through
the blood, and which are afterward In
oculatedin the ordinary way through
the cellular tissue, as if by bite, are
proof against the disease. It is as
though the injection into the veinsacted
as vaccine. Twenty sheep were ex-
perimented upon; ten only were treated
to the venous injection, and then all
were inoculated through the cellular
tissue. The ten which had been first
ssvaccinated continue alive and well !;
they have not even shown any adverse
symptoms. The other ten have died of
rabies. It remains to say why 81. Galtier
experimental on sheep and not upon
dogs and cats, which usually communi-
cate the disease. The incubation of the
disease is much more rapid and less
capricious in the sheep than In the dog
or in man, and hence M. Galter was
able to get bis results more certainly
within short period. Having succeed
ed SO far, he is now justified in under
taking the more protracted series Of OBJ
servations which experiments on the
canine species will involve and this he
proposes to do. Experiments of this
nature are not without serious risk, and
admiration is almost equally due to the
courage and intelligence of the expert

THE TWO OLD BACHELORS.

Two old bachelors were living in one house,
One caught muffin. the other caught mouse.
Said he who caught the muffin to him who caught
the mouse:
sThis happens just in time, for we've nothing in
the house,
Save a tiny piece of lemon, and teaspoomful of
honey;
And what to do for dinner-since We haven't any

And what can expect, if we haven't any din

They borrowed two large onions, but no sage was to

IN EDITOR.


Editor Watterson, in the Louisville
Courier Journal, speaks as follows about
conducting newspaper "Some peo-
pie estimate the ability of periodical
and the talent of its editor by the guam
tty of its original matter. It Is COM
paratively an easy task for a frothy
writer to string out column of words
upon any and all subjects. His ideas
may flow in one weak, washy, everlast-
ing food, and the command Of his Ian
guage may enable him to string them
together Like punches of onions, and yet
his paper may be but a meager and poor
concern. Indeed, the mere writing part
Of editing paper is but small portion
of the work. The care, the time en-
ployed in selecting, is far more import
ant, and the fact of good editor Is bet
ter shown by his selections than any
thing else; and that, we know, is half
the battle. But, we have said, an editor
ought to be estimated, his labor UNDER
stood and appreciated, by the general
conduct of his paper-its tone, its uni
form, consistent course, aims, manliness,
its dignity, and its propriety. To pre-
serve these as they should be preserved
is enough to occupy fully the time and
attention Of any man. If to this be add
ed the general supervision of the de-
tails Of publication which most editors
have to encounter, the wonder is how
they find time to write at all"

drown myself"
In this last amiable speech the young
lady had unwittingly hit upon the true
motive. The widow was intent upon
catching Elder Boyd, and she INDUCED
in costly bonnet, not because she sup
posed the elder would be caught with
tinery, but because this would strength
en- in his mind the idea that she had
stumbled upon hidden wealth. The
widow calculated shrewdly, and the dis
play had the effect she anticipated.
Monday afternoon, the elder found an
errand that called him over to the
widows. 1t CHANGED to be just about
tea-time. He was importuned to stay to
tea, and, somewhat to his own surprise,
actually did.
The polite widow, who knew the eld-
er's weak point, brought one of her best
mince pies, piece of which her guest
partook of with zest.
"You'H take another piece, 1 know, "
said she persuasively.
Really, I am ashamed" said the eld-
er; but he passed his plate. "The fact
is" he said apologetically, "your pies
are so nice don't know when to STOP"
s'Do you call those nice?" said the
widow, modestly. 81 call them COM
mon. I can make good mince pies
when set out to, but this time 1 didn't
have as good luck as usual"
81 shouldn't want any BETTER" said
the elder, emphatically.
"Then 1 hope, if you like them, you
will drop in to tea often. We ought to
be more neighborly, Elder Boyd"
Elder Boyd assented, and he meant
what he said. The fact is, the elder
began to think that the widow was very
charming woman. She was very comedy,
and then she was such an excellent
cook. Besides, he had no doubt in his
own mind that she was worth a consid-
cradle sum of money. What objection
could there be to her becoming Mrs.
Boyd? He brought this question be-
foreher one evening. The widow blushed,
protesting to be greatly surprised. In
fact, she had never thought Of such a
thing in her Life, but, on the whole, she
had always thought highly of the elder,
and, to cut the matter short, she ac-
copied him. A month afterward she
was installed as mistress of the elders
large house, somewhat to the surprise
Of the village people, who could not con-
ceive how she had brought him over.
Some weeks after the ceremony, the eld-
er ventured to inquire about the pot of
gold which she had found in the cellar.
'Pot of gold p she exclaimed, in sur
prise; 81 know of none."
"But," said the elder, disconnected,
"you asked me about whether the law
could claim it.
ooh, Lor', elder, I only asked for Gu
riosity."
"And was that the reason you made
inquiries at the bank ?"
Certainly! What else could it be ?"
The elder went out to the barn, and
for half an hour sat in silent meditation.
At the end of that time he calculated,
as a closing consideration
CATER al, she makes good mince
pies.
It gives me pleasure to state that the
union between the elder and the widow
proved very happy one, although to
the end of his life he could never make
up hia mind about the spot of Gold"

THE soRROWs OF SINGERS.

The lot Of the famous singer is not
always happy one. From the days OF
Maibran, who was in America over a
half century ago, to those Of poor
Christine Nilsson, trouble and sorrow
have spared none of the great singers
who have been popular idols. The most
lucky Of these is Jenny Lind, who retired
on fortune before her voice failed. and
who leads happy domestic Life in Lon
don. But Malibran when young married
a rascal, and, although her second mar
rage was not unfortunate, she lived but
very short time after it. Her contem-
porary and rival, Mile. Sontag, married
an italian Count and entered fashionable
life, retiring from the stage when quite
young. But her Count was also rascal,
who squandered all her money i'll gam
bling, and she had, when nearly 30 years
old, to resume her artistic career, which
was brilliant to the last. But her hus-
band was Jealous as well as spendthrift,
and when she died in Mexico there were
suspicious that she and the handsome
tenor Pozzolini were both poisoned.
Mile. Grisi, who was the acknowledged
grandest dramatic singer of her time,
welded man whom she did not love
and who was not worthy of her. and she
made a scandal by leaving him for the
arms of the equally famous tenor, Mario.
Mile. Alboni, probably the grandest con-
tralto singer that ever appeared in pub
Lie, was married for the fortune in her
voice by an italian Count, but the mar
riage was not q happy one, and they
lived apart for some years. He did not,
however, squander her money, and when
he died she lost no time in becoming
the wife of a French subaltern officer,
much younger than herself, who loves
her fortune devotedly, and makes him
self generally disagreeable to those that
rent houses or apartments of hers in
Paris.
Missions husband, NJ. Rouzaud, is
said to have inherited insanity from his
family, and he was literally madly In
love with her when he persuaded her to
become bis wife. He was crazy, too,
about stock speculations, ard, after
gambling all his own and his wife's
fortune away on the Bourse, he died in
o mad-house. Another great singer,
Mile. Heilbronn, who was pet Of Paris
some years ago, married French Count,
and lost through him al that she had in
the crash of the Union Generate. She
Is now compelled, after having lost the
freshness Of her voice, to return to the
stage. Everybody knows how Adeiina
Patti threw herself away on poor old
French Marquis, from whom she fled
after he had enriched himself out of her
earnings, and how she has thrown her
self away in another manner with Signor
Nicolini. Adelins is reported, by
Western interviewer, to have said, also,
that her sister Carlotta's husband is
bad fellow, who spends all his wife
makes in gambling.
These are only few examples; more
might be given to illustrate the facility
