"BEAUTY is a gift Of God aad
good looks are in themselves q pleas

Of this quality in every household
where there is cleanliness, neatness
and grace. Plato says: "Let your

draw the soul, even in childhood, into
harmony with beauty" Had dentis-

had OCCASION somewhere in his volu-

mankind universally.
Which leads to the remark that no.

A Locomotive Telegraph.
FSt, James Gazette. I

A system for enabling railway train in
motion to send and receive kilograms was
recently tried on the Atlantic & Charlotte
aerial railway in America. 1t is the inven-
tion of Capt. c. w. Will of the United States
Army, and consists of a telegraph wire run
ming along the track, but insulated from it
and interrupted at intervals of forty feet
The ends at each break are connected to
copper rollers, which normally are in con-
tact, so that the electrict circuit is completed
through them. One car of the train is fitted
up as telegraph Office, and the long metal
strips OR rails projecting from below the car
rub against the metal rollers as the car
passes In doing so they depress the rollers
thus causing them to break contact with one
another. The strips are connected together
through the instruments in the car, and the
electric current passes from one roller through
the instruments to the other roller, and
thence pursues it way along the rest of the
wire. The circuit through the apparatus
thus established is never absolutely inter-
rupted; for as the car moves from one pair
of rollers to the next the strips make con-
tact with the latter just before contact with
the former is broken. The instruments, in
fact, are constantly moving along the tele-
graph line as the train itself moves; hence
can be received on them or dis
patched. Telephones can be used as well as
the ordinary Morse and sounder instruments;
and the system enables a passenger to send
or receive an important telegram while
travelling, or the position and state of the
train to be communicated to distant station.

Effect Of OdOrs on Milk.

Upon this question Professor Arnold. in
the work American Dairying," says: 'The
London MIk Journal cites instances where
milk that has stood a short time in the pre-
sence of persons sick with typhoid fever, or
been handled by parties before fully recover
ing from the smallpox, has spread these dis
eases as effectually as if the persons them
selves had been present. Scarlatina, measles,
and other Contagious diseases have been
spread IN the same way. The peculiar smell
OF cellar is indelibly impressed upon all
butter made from milk standing in it. A
few pufs from pipe or cigar will scent all
the milk in the room, and smoking lamp
will soon do the same. A pail of milk stand
ing ten minutes where it will take the scent
OF strong-smelling stable, or any other
offensive odor, will imbibe taint that will
never leave it. A maker of gilt-edged but
ter objects to cooling warm milk in the room
where his milk stands for the cream to rise,
because he says the odor escaping from the
new milk while cooling is taken in by the
other milk and retained to the injury of his
butter. This may seem like descending to
little things, but it must be remembered that
it is the sum of such little things that de-
termines whether the products of the dairy
are to be sold at cost or below, or as high
priced luxury. If milk is to be converted
into an article of the latter class, it must be
handled and kept in clean and sweet vessels,
and must stand in pure fresh air, such as
would be desirable and healthy for people to

London Post.l


A new proof Of the globular form of the
earth has been produced by two scientists in
Geneva, Messrs Dufour and Farrell. They
have called attention to the fact that the
images of steamers and the surrounding
mountains, when reflected upon the surface
of the immense lake, invariably appeared in
diminished size. Hence they conclude
that the surface Of the lake must be bent in
a convex shape, otherwise it could not pro-
duce the same results as a japanese diminish
ing mirror or convex lens. Of course this
observation is not confined to the lake of
Geneva, but must be true of all great water
surfaces which are sufficiently still and placid
to serve as mirrors. A critic has asked why
this phenomenon has not been noticed until
recently. NM. Dufour and Farrell reply that
it has possibly been noticed by private OBJ
servers, who have not thought of its interest
or importance as confirmation of the theo-
ry that we are living upon globe They
add, further, that the diminution of the re-
fected objects is so slight that it would nat
urally escape the notice of the greater num-
Der of observers.

Injurious Shade Trees.

Attention has been lately called in the
columns of Les Nodes to the injurious effects
ON health that are apt to follow a residence
near the common shade tree known as the
"buttonball," or ''plane" tree. The fact has
long been known that stay near these trees
is often followed by an irritation of the air
passages, followed by disagreeable and
sometimes persistent cough. This is due to
the fact, familiar to botanists, that the young
shoots, leaves and stipules, are covered with
thick, fine down, composed of minutely-
branched rigid hairs, which falls off as these
parts become older, and often floats in the
air in large quantities; it is the inhalation
of this that causes the throat difficulties in
question. Besides this it frequently causes
serious annoyance to employees in nurseries
where the tree is raised, unless suitable pre-
caution is taken against it.

Peck on Railroads.
Peck's Sun.

We know it is fashionable for people to
talk about the egreatmonopolies, the railroads,
and show how they are sapping the life blood
from the farmers by arranging facilities for
transportating wheat worth 40 cents BUSH
ell in store pay, without railroads, to mar
ket where the farmer realizes nearly 81 a
bushel in cash.
Demagogues ring the changes on these
monopolies, tell how the directors ride in
palace cars and drink wine, though they
never mention the fact that the railroads have
made it possible for farmers to give up driv-
ing ox-teams and ride after horses that can
trot in 2:4O
We presume that railroad managers like
to get pretty good dividend on their invest
ments, but do they get better dividend than
farmers do on some of their investments :?
Do you know of any farmer that ever COM
planned that his products were selling too
high? If you complain at paying So for a
jag of crows-nest wood during a snow block
ace, does he argue with you to show that he
is monopoly, or does he tell you that you
don't want the wood, you needn't have it?
These monopolies have taken the country
when it was as weak as cruel, and hoisted it
by the slack of the pants to the leading po-
sition among nations. The monopolies have
built their track all over Gods creation,
where land could not be given away, have
hauled emigrants out there and set them up
in business, and made the waste places of the
Government valuable. They have made trans
portation so cheap that the emigrant from
Germany of last year can send wheat from
Dakota to the Fatherland, and Bismarck and
King William can get it cheaper than they
can within mile of their castles.
These monopolies that the played-out nine
spot anti-monopoly leagues are howling
against have made the country what it is.
and if there is anybody in this country that
don't like it, they can get emigrant tickets
and 90 to Germany or Norway and take the
places of the men that monopolies are caus-
ing to settle here. Of course we could still |
run railroads better than the owners could |
run them, but as long as we have not got
money enough to buy them we had better
shut up our yaup and let the railroad men
do what they please with their own, as long
as they permit the country to prosper as it is
now. The anti-monopoly leaguers
had better 30 to driving street cars.

THE WHEEL o. THE BREAST.

Through rivers of veins, on a namlass quest
The tide of my life goes hurriedy sweeping
Till it reaches that cutious wheel O. the breast
The human heart which is never at rest;
Faster, faster, 1t cries, and leaping
Plunging, dashing, speeding away.
The wheel and the river work night and day.
] know not wherefore know not whittier
This strange tide rushes with such mad force;
1t glides on hither it slides on thither,
over and over lie self-same course,
With never an outlet and never a source;
And lashing itself to the heat Of passion,
II whrls the heart in ll-wheel fashion
! can hear in the hush of the still, still night
The ceaseless hum of that mighty river;
can hear it rushing, gurgling, gushing,
With wild, delirious, strange delight,
Ann a conscious pride in its sense of might,
A. it hurries and worries my heart forever.
And wonder oft, as | lie awake
And list to the river that seethes and suOges
over the wheel that it chides and urges
wonder oft if the wheel will break
With the mighty pressure it bears, some day,
Or slowly and wearly wear away
For little by little the heart is wearing,
Like the wheel o the MILL as the tide goes tearin.
And plunging hurredly through the breast
In network OF veins on a nameless quest
From and forth unto unknown oceans,
Bringing its cargoeS of fierce emotions.
With never pause, an hour for rest.

New Treatment of Sciatica.

The London Medical Times publishes tht
statement of Manchester physician who
has, by the administration of copaiba, imme.
diately cured the most severe pains OF
sciatica, in cases where morphia, chloral, tur-
pentine, quinine, lithia, colchicum, potassium
bromide and potassium iodide, with poultices
and liniments in all varieties had proved
unavailing The method pursued is iiot to
begin with the drug, but first to empty the
bowels, and relieve any gouty, rheumatic, or
an@mic state that may happen to exist, and
falling back upon the drug if the pain con-
tinues unabated. The remedial property
thus exhibited is thought to be due to the
drugs well known power of producing
diuresis in certain forms of hepatic dropsy.
1t seems to have an action on the liver, it
certainly stimulates the liver, and it exer-
cises some influence on the nervous system.
