RATHER ENTHUSIASTIC.

The Wilmington Del.) Daily Republican
lately contained the following item of popu-
lar interest DR.. j. f. Speck, who is con-
nected with the Wilmington Every EUeniag,
speaks rather enthusiastically of st. Jacobs
Oil. DR.. Speck states that he uses Ne Oil
in his family as household remedy, sort
Of universal panacea for all aches and pains,
and has always found it to act most happily.
His attention was called to it by the many
testimonials in its favor and he one day used
it upon himself for sore throat. Twoa pph-
cations were sufficient to effect n cure He
also used it on his little girl for sore throat
with gratifying success. The same child had
scarlet fever this winter, which left the ten
dons of one leg much contracted. The little
pmttler couldn walk without assistance and
suffered much inconvenience and pain. Sew
eral applications of st. Jacobs Oil restored
her limb to its normal &C 'dtion and she has
not eXperiencedany trouble since. DR.. Speck
states that he has also seen the Oil act
charmingly in toothache. He thinks st.
Jacobs Oil is sterling remedy, and does
not hesitate 70 recommend it for rheuma-

Of vaccination. heard the knife rip

sumo the rapid breathing acts very much
like the inhalation of laughing-gas (; thst
it oxidizes the blood more highly and
makes the heart beat faster, as shewn by
the color in the face, and this exhilars-
ton produces insensibility to physical
pain. A man slightly wounded in battle

occupation, but mainly, we suppose, be-

Rapid Breathing as an Anesthetic.

DIR. NJ. T. Yates, in letter published
in the Biblical Record, says of the
surgical operations to which he has re-
Gently submitted "My doctors said
that they had seen it stated by an Amer
lean doctor that if person would
breathe IA rapidly IA possible under an
operation he would not feel the pain of
cutting. and they wished to try it OH
me, to which proposal assented. DIR.
Macleod superintended the breathing
which was like dog on hot summer
day--holdipg, out of my sight, hand
kerchief in his hand TO he dropped rs a
signal-when he saw the color come to
my face-for Henderson, the operating
doctor to go ahead. When Macleod told
me THAT will do, / was surprised to
find that The operation had been per.
formed. This have tried three times,

Grape and paramatta. All other degrees
IF grief for the departed can, 1t seems,

Grape worn around the sleeve. This
state of things is, doubtless, a reaction
from the too apparent luxury of woe pre-
valent until recently, but it has its dis
advantages. Once on time we were
protected from the disagreeable risk of
inquiring after the health of persons
who are no more by the inky blackness
of attire of their surviving relatives. 1t

cheerfully to young lady: "Apd your
father; is he all right?" and to he

have never noticed upon her arm. Surely
some compromise can be made between
the heavy black that was once considered
necessary and the scrap of Grape that Is
now thought sufficient. Social pitfalls
of a distressing kind ought to be guarded

The supersti,ions or Gamblers.

Enough has been said about the super
stitlons Of gamblers to fill volumes, but
the subject will never be exhausted SO
long as the passion for gambling exists.
Among the "Gleanings from Monte
Carlo" have recently appeared the fol-
lowing instances of the lunacy to which
gamblers are subject
"a well-known Italian Marchesa
never sits down without o talisman in
the shape of tiny glass bottle hidden
in the palm of her hand and containing
n live insect; and one of the most indie
fatigable votaries of roulette, Paris
banker, positively declined, few
months ago, to commence operations,
and returned to Nice, because ticket
bearing the number twentv-nine had
been given him at the door in exchange
for his overcoat.
Last winter two habitues were talk

one of them remarked, was in deep
affection on account of the death of his
only son.
