HoM to Tell a Good Potato.

Here is & good place to impart what is secret to the vast majority of people, and 1t is one well worth knowing. It is simply how to tell a good potato; that is, as well as can be done without cook ing 1t, for sometimes even experts are deceived. Take 8 sound potato, and, paying no attention to its outward ap- pearance, divide it into two pieces with your knife and examine the exposed surfaces. If there is so much water or "juice that seemingly slight press ure would cause it to fall off in drops, you may be sure it will be "soggy" af- aer it is boiled. These are the requisite qualities for good potato which must appear when one is cut in two: For ,olor, yelIowish white if it is a deep yellow the potato will not cook well there must be considerable amount of moisture, though not too much; rub he two pieces together and a white roth will appear around the edges and upon the two surfaces this signifies the presence of starch, and the more starch, and consequently froth, the better the potato, while the less there is the poorer It will cook. The strength of the starchy element can be tested by releasing the hold upon one piece of the potato, and, if it clings to the other, this in itself is very good sign. These are the experiments gener- ally made by experts, and they are or dinalily willing to buy On the strength of their turning out well, though as stated above these tests are by no means infallible. Tine anti Chinese element of society will not like the information that very large percentage of the potatoes consumed in this market are raised by Ghinamen, but. such is the case. The River Reds," our cheapest potato, which is grown along the banks of the sacramento river, are raised almost ex- clusively by theheathen, who ship them to the commission merchants, from whose stores they go to hotels, boarding
 houses and private families all over the city, and @ few good seasons make the Chinamen rich-froma Mongolian stand point. Francisco Call.

The Mississippi River Leaving New
 Orleans.

The wayward Mississippi, according to the New Orleans papers, is giving very strong evidence of it's intention to desert the Queen City of the South and seek new outlet to the Gulf. It seems the Father of Waters is rapidly cutting another channel, and that the entire waters of the Red River and a large portion of those of the Mississippi are now flowing through the Atchafaiaya. Unless they can be arrested 1t is not improbable that New Orleans may be left in the near future stranded on a shallow stream. Observations at the mouth of the Red River go to show that where a bar existed year ago there is now a depth of sixteen feet, running clear through to the Atckafalaya, seven or eight miles distant. This is most remarkable change in so short a time, and if the forces in operation continue the menace to the commercial supremacy of New Orleans will become a subject for serious consideration. History re- cords several great natural changes and revolutions of this character in the Old World, but they have required centuries for their accomplishment. The great American river, however, is up with the age, and it is not impossible that it may do in week or month what the slug gish waters of the other hemisphere nave taken hundreds of years to work out.

Empress Eugenle shared the Jllrone of Napoleon H., and set the fashions to all Europe In those times the Paris ian dressmakers used to spend the sea- son of Lent in wondering what new style of garment her Majesty would ap- pear in at the annual Easter outing of Longchamps; for, as everybody knows, it was at Easter, when the whole of the "great world used to stream toward Longchamps in their carriages, that the fashions for the coming year were shown forth.
 The Empress, by way of doing equal justice to all the tradesmen of the capi- tai, used to have her dresses made at home, keeping staff of twelve expert seamstresses for the purpose, and cos tumier whose business it was to sketch models for new dresses and bonnets. This great mans labor was not per formed in jealous secrecy, for his sketches were examined and debated urnn by the Empress and the principal ladies of her court so that when some novelty was adopted two or three of the | leading miliners of Paris always had eognizance of 1t, through the orders Bksiyeu by these ladies. But to the mass of milliners, as well as to the public at large, the new fashions always came as 8 surprise; SO that, immediately after Easter, there would be grand rush of ladies, clamoring to their modistes to trick them out as fast as possible in that "sweet new thing" that had looked so becoming on the Empress, the Duchess de Mouchy, the Marquise de Gallifet and others.
 It was grand time for dressmakers. 1 The Easter orders they received were sometimes of kind to set all the silk factories in Lyons working double tides, and to give lucrative employment to thousands of Parisian working folk of both sexes Sometimes, too, the capri ciously- sudden introduction of some startling novelty would operate as rev olution in the trade, as happened when the spoonbill bonnet was abruptly cast aside for the bonnet no bigger than a cheeseplate, which lay flat on theshead. This unexpected novelty must have thrown myriads of spoonbills out of wear within less than three months, and was presumably regarded as an unmixed boon for the operatives who were re. quired to manufacture large stocks ol the new article. All these violent changes. however, are now things of the ! past. There are now no recognized leaders of fashion in Paris; and, though every year brings some new modes witt 1t, these are neither so generally nor SC rapidly copied as they used to be. Ther some fashions which have been found comedy and convenient have maintained their prestige for several seasons in sue cession, defying all extravagant at tempts to supersede them.-Londo, NerS.

A Family Episnde.

A wife followed her husband down to the gate as he WAS starting for down town, and kindly said to him:
 William, you know how sadly Ineed blue bunting dress.
 "Yes, dear," he remarked, "but you know how hard up am. As soon as I can see my way clear you shall have the dress and a new hat to boot. Be pa- tient, be good, and your reward shall be great.
 Forty minutes after that he emerged from restaurant with a big basket and fsh-pole, bound up the river. In the basket was 8 chicken, pickles, cake, fruit, pie and bottle of liquid of rich color, and he was just lighting 2O-cent cigar when his wife came along.

 "Yes, I was going to the market. Where are you going-what's in the bas- ket?"

"Speakin' about strong men," re- marked Bill Barker, "sorter causes me to remember an old steamboat Captain who used to run on the Yazoo river in '5s.

What Causes the Blood to Circulate

To what degree the heart is aided by other forces is yet matter of investi- gation. Probably there are several forces assisting. The elasticity of the arteries increases their carrying capaci- ty. They are firm, elastic tubes, which expand under the pressure from each heart-contraction, and then by their own elasticity contract and help the on- ward flow of the blood. In the smaller arteries the flow loses the intermittent character it possesses in the larger arteries, and becomes steady stream. The elasticity of the arteries serves pre- cisely the same purpose as the air cham Der of any force pump, that of equaliz- ing the flow, and so increasing the amount delivered. The whole force is derived from the heart; the arteries cause the force to act continuously.
 The veins are lax tubes somewhat larger than the arteries, and capable of holding all the blood of the body. They convey the same amount of blood as the latter, but more slowly. In the larger veins, however, near the auricles, the velocity may be 200 milimetres per second. They are provided with valves which efectually prevent the blood from flowing backward toward the heart. Any compression, produced by muscu- lar contraction or otherwise, will there lore assist the forward flow of venoas blood. This Is one explanation why ex- ercise hastens the circulation. The movement of the chest in breathing probably aids the pulmonary circula- tion, the blood, as well as the atnos- phere, tending to fill the vacuum during inspiration.
 Physical capillary force is not gener- ally regarded as an active force in the circulation. But there is an admitted force in the capillaries, resulting from the attraction of the tissues for tie arterial blood, containing the require,' oxygen and nutriment. "The vital con- dition of the tissue becomes 6 factor IL the maintenance of the circulation. Il is this force, primarily, which adapts the amount of blood to the varying needs of any organ; the nervous system regulates the supply by varying the caliber of the vessels.
 The force in the capillaries, or somt other force. carries the blood aftel death, from the arteries, where the hear leaves it, into the veins. Finding tn, arteries empty after death gave rise tt the idea that they conveyed air; whenc, the name. It was this belief whiei Harvey overthrow in 1620.-PopULaa Science Monthly.

The Two Sexes.

There is nearly always something of natures own gentility in all young wom- en, except, indeed, when they get to- gether and fall giggling. It shames us men to see how much sooner they are polished into conventional shape than our rough masculine angels. An un- ,outh boy requires, heaven knows what assiduity, to move three steps, we do not say like gentleman, but like boy with soul in him; but give the least advantage of society or tuition to peasant girl, and hundred to one but she will glide into refinement before the ooy can make bow without upsetting the table. There is sentiment in all women; and that gives delicacy to thought and taste to manner with men it is generally acquired; an offspring of the intellectual quality; not, as with the other sex, of the moral.

The Blue Laws on Smoking.

In the old time there were some very stringent laws in Massachusetts against the use of tobacco in public, and, while the penalties were not so heavy, yet they were apparently rigidly enforced for time We quote from law passed in October, 1882, as follows: "It is or dered, no person shall take any tobacco publiquely, under paine of punishment; also that every one shall pay one penny for every time he is convicted of taking tobacco in any place, and thatany Assist ant shall have power to receave evl- dence and give order for levyeing oft, as also to give order for the levyeing of the officers charge. This order to be- gin the 10th of fNovembernext." InSept- ember 1884, we wediscoveranotherla law on the same article: "Victualers, or keepers of an ordinary, shall not suffer any tobacco to be taken in their houses, under the penalty of shillings for every offence, to be payde by the victnaler, and 12 pence by the party that takes it. Fur ther, it is ordered that noe person shall take tobacco publiquely, under the penalty of 2 shillings pence nor privately, in his owne howse, or in the howse of another, before strangers, and that two or more shall not take it to- geather, anywhere, under the aforesaid penalty for every offence" In November, 1887, the record runs "All former laws against tobacco are repealed, and tobacco is set at liberty ;" but in Septem- ber 1633, "the General Court, finding that, since the repeating of the former avs against tobacco, the same is more abused then before, it hath therefore ordered, that no man shall take any to- bacco in the fields, except in his journey, or at meal times, under paine of 12 pence for every offence nor shall take ,tny tobacco in Cor SO near) any dwelling house, barne, corne or bay-rick, as may

Glyeerine.

The n>. e is derived from a Greek word signifying sweet" and has refer ance to taste. As oil consists of acids and glycerine, the latter is obtained by separating the oil-the same is true of fat-into its component parts.
 Theusesot glycerine are becoming more and more extended and valuable. There is no application that is better than few drops rubbed daily over the hands, to keep them moist and smooth. The hands should be first moistened with water. as the glycerine otherwise ab- sorbs moisture from the skin.
 Glycerine and carbolic acid-three ounces of the former to fifteen grains of the latter-are among the most effective applications for ehapped hands, and equally for a scurfy skin. It may be ilsed two or three times day.
 Glycerine is also said to be exceed ingly effective in some cases of piles. A gentleman who had suffered from them for years, and whose case appeared to defy medical treatment, was cured by taking it daily with his food. A dose would be from half to a whole table spoonful.
 Writers in the London Lancet strong ly recommend it for acidity of stomach. It's use for this trouble was first discov- cred by a private gentleman, who had long been a sufferer from it. Having read in the paper that glycerine kept milk from souTing, he said to himself, "Why won't it keep me?
 He tried it with complete success, and was able thenceforth to take food from which he had besn forced to abstain. It was subsequently employed by physi- clans with like results.
 It does not remove acidity it only prevents its occurrence. Take from teaspoonful to tablespoonful immedi- ately after eating or take it in the tea in place of sugar. Yoatfh'S Companion.
