Forty Degrees Below Zero.

In the best of even our modern houses it is
impossible to have anything like perfect ven
tilation, with the mercury ranging from 20 to
40 degrees below zero, without rendering the
rooms too cool for comfort. Consequently
the blood becomes poisoned during the winter
months, by more or less imperfect ventilation.

TRANSFORMATION Decision.

In the case of the Northern Transit compa-

to-day made an important decision to the effect
that admitting a breach of contract, the Tran
sit company was clearly entitled to compensa-
ton for the use of its boats, they being de-
tanned by the non-fulfillment Of contract; but
it could not also be entitled to damages of
$50, 600 per year for loss of reputation during
that time.

Sick Children.

II is better TO take your child to the
doctor unnecessarily than to postpone
this duty and find that it is too late. A
few hours in the diseases Of children
may make all the difference between
hopeful and hopeless cases.
When you take counsel of doctor
give him your explicit confidence. DO
not permit any friend-even though the
friend be an experienced old mother
and nurse-to disturb confidence in the
doctor. Follow no advice that is against
what he has said. If you lose confidence
in him get another physician.
When a child is old enough to know
what you mean. never threaten it with
the doctor 1t may be very important
some day that your child should not be
frightened at the doctor, but regard him
as friend and helper.
A sick child demands nursing
mother, who has tact, patience, firm
ness, added to her affection. With
these so much can be done; without
them the battle may be hopeless from
the first.
1t is asserted that every year 5000
children die in New York who need not
die if proper care were taken of them.
High heated terms have much to do
with these deaths. Every hour that
young child is exposed to temperature
above IS or SO degrees. in crowded
neighborhood, it is robbed Of vitality.
High heat acts injuriously on its blood.
nerve and muscle-cells, and also on the
digestive system of the child and the
milk of a nursing mother. High heat
does more-it decomposes all organic
refuse and dirt in houses and about
them, and poisonous air, water. food,
clothing, bedding, carpets. etc. Hence
the need of excursions for children and
of cleanliness at home.
Do not lift or drag child by its arm
or arms. You strain ligaments which
were not intended to bear the weight'o of
the body. "A grown person swinging
from bar with his hands relieves the
ligaments by the use of muscles.

A Oonjurers Trick.

A man who has had a large success
in deoeiving the public is suspicious OF
those who excel him in winning popu-
lar favor. Often he is cunning enough
to detect and expose their methods.
Prof. Proctor illustrates this rivalry in
an amusing story he tells of Maelzers
automaton chess-player, and OF the way
the fraud was once successfully expos
ed.
A conjurer drew large crowds in Q
German town to his tricks of legerder-
main. until Maelzel came into the place
with his famous chess-player. Then the
crowd deserted the conjurer for the new
attraction. Vexed at his loss OF pat
ronage, he was determined to find out
the secret of the new cheat.
He attended the exhibition frequent
", and became convinced there was .
man of small stature hid in the body OF
the chess player. But he could not con-
vince others Of it, as Maelzers expose
OF the interior seemed to leave no room
tor 8 hiding-place.
- But the conjurer was equal to the
semsfgency. One evening, while the
crowd were watching eagerly q game
Of chess. he raised suddenly cry of
fire. One or two accomplices In the
secret Joined in the cry.
The trick was successful. He had the
satisfaction Of seeing the automaton
sharing In the general alarm, and shak-
ing convulsively as If it were going to
pieces. Maelzel was compelled to hide
II behind curtain to quiet it again.
The conjurer was satisfied at the expos
ure Of his rival.

Foolish Extravaganza in Funerals.

Chicago is noted for the almost bound
less extravaganza Of its funeral ex-
penses. Poor people overwhelm them
selves in debt in order to pay honor to
the memory of the dead, whom too often
they neglected or looked coldly on when
living. Now this very fact shows that
the practice il not so much out of love
and affection as proceeding from sell
fishness which sees credit reflected on
the living in paraphernalia supposed to
be intended to reverence the dead. 1t

not seldom buried at an expense of from
sixty to one hundred dollars. In in

are indulged in. The extremely poor,
even, dazzled by these "dumb shows"
and blinded to their poverty by their
grief and tears, wildly rush into the
most ridiculous displays of extrava-
gance. In some cases it is wilful, in
others thoughtless, extravaganza. In
still others, the mere result OF foolish
and silly rivalry between families and
ueighbors.

How To Smell "Sulliyan."

The Milwaukee City Directory con-
tains variety Of strange names. A
canvasser relates that while collecting
names for the directory he met wo-
man who spoke bad mixture of Polish
and German, said that her name was
Sullivan. From appearances and sur
rOundings the canvasser thought there
surely must be some mistake and asked
her TO spell her name. She replied that
she could not, but had an envelope on
which il was written and on getting it
the canvasser read: ..CZalawZcvancz."
Now he thinks there are more ways than
one Of spelling Sullivan. A West Side
cooper named Ernst Schemmelpfenning
has the distinction of owning the long
est name in the book, the surname con-
tanning sixteen letters, almost an alpha
bet. Frank Czyz probably has the most
peculiar name. Olaf Piczszkinzwowskz
is not an ordinary title. 1t is said that
there is a Polack in the First Ward
whose name contains eighteen conso-
nants and makes q full line of print
with several letters hanging over at each
side, but his name does not appear in

Using Glover for Manure.

The cheapest way to keep up the fer
tility of most soils consists in raising
red clover and turning it under while it
is green. The growth of the plants
may be greatly increased by the appli-
cation of ground plaster or gypsum
which costs very little and is easily APP
piled. The old practice of blowing I'M
der the entire stalks of clover when at
their full size the year after the seed is
sown is now generally abandoned. The
trouble of turning them under is great,
the time for doing the work conflicts
with pressing farm operations, and the
rotting of the plants is generally quite
unsatisfactory. At present the practice
Of allowing the clover to grow till two
crops are harvested is generally fol-
lowed. At the end of two years the soil
contains large number of roots which
are very long. They furnish large
amount of fertilizing material which
readily rots in the ground. When corn
is to be raised on an inverted clover sod
the land is plowed quite deep just be-
fore the planting is done. At that timo
the plants will DO quite large, but not
so tall that they can not be easily COW
cred by the pillow. When fall grain is
to be sown on the land tits plowed after
the clover crop is harvested. Observa-
ton shows that the soil is in poor con-
ditiou to pillow when there is rank
growth of clover on it. The numerous
leaves Of the clover plant aid in evapo-
ration and cause the soil to become very
dry under it. After the crop is cut and
removed the soil will become more
moist and in q better condition to be
plowed. The value Of red clover as
manure is being better appreciated every
year, and the recent expansion of the
winter wheat crops is largely owing to

A Strong Bull.

The following occurs in recent In
terview with Rufus Hatch:
Reporter suppose can write you
down as an unqualified "bulr' on the
country, at least.
Mr.. Hatch-Why, / can not be any
thing but .'bulr' when look at this
country, its growth, and possibilities.
In the first place, it comprises within its
limits every shade of climate suitable
for every creature of the earth; it is
capable of producing everything or any
thing that man need to eat, or wear,
or use. And then the growth OF the
country is marvellous. When went to
Chicago in 1850 it had a population OF
20, 1858; in 1860 the population had in
creased to 1l2, l72; in 1870 it numbered
288. 977, and in 1881 the statistics show
q population of $4,000.
The growth of Chicago is but sam
pie of all the other towns, cities, coun-
ties, and states west of tho Allegheny
mountains-and it has all happened
within my business knowledge. When
I went to Chicago in 1850 there were
only forty-two miles of railroad west OF
the lakes. 1t was called the Galena
railroad, and was an old-fashioned strap

Canned ,orn,

There are over sixty corn-canning es-
tablished in the state of Maine, and the
number of cans of corn annually put up
is nearly twelve millions. The farmers
are paid about 3 cents per can for the
corn, the tin and solder costs about 8
cents and the remaining or 5 cents
goes to the manufactured for putting up
and marketing. The cans hold about
twenty-six ounces of corn, and farmers
are able to grow from 1000 to 5000
cans per acre, the average being not far
from 1900 cans, of a cash value of $45.
There are several factories in Midway
and Franklin, Mass, and others further
south, but Maine puts up about one
third the corn canned in this country

A Matrimonial nomnlicstion.

Welearn of a curious matrimonial COM
plication which occurred in Jones Co.,
Georgia, short time ago. 1t seems
that q certain young lady was ardently
sought after by two young gentlemen.
Each pressed his suit with so much zeal
that the young lady could not decide be-
tween them. To gain time she engaged
herself to both, duly appointing time
for marriage. One young gentleman at
once went to the father to get his con-
sent, and was made happy. The other
no less promptly interviewed the mother,
with entirely satisfactory results. Meth
er father nor mother mentioned the af-
fair to each other. The young lady then
wrote to No. postponing the marriage.
But the appointed time came on and
No. 2 came with it, having made every
preparation; but at the very last mo-
ment he was informed Of the other en-
gagement and retired. No. hearing
how No. 2 was treated, and fearing a
like fate, withdrew from the race. There
upon No. renewed his suit, won the
vacillating fair one, and everybody was
made happy.-Macon Telegraph.

Ooloring Artificial Butter.

From recent Investigations in New
York it appears that oleomargarine is
not palmed off on the public as genuine
butter so much by manufacturers and
jobbers as by the retailers. These are
tempted to the deception by the large
profit made by selling Oleomargarine as
butter. Thousands of pounds of artili-
cial butter which cost the grocer IL or
90 cents per pound, are sold at IS to 40
cents. The butter trade does not object
to competition with "bulp' butter, for
it SAYS if people want it let them have
it. The whole trouble seems to be that
the stuff is sold to consumers as the gem
uine article. Oleomargarine in its nat
ural state is perfectly white, and could
never be passed off as butter were it not
for the use of artificial coloring. This
serves to disguise it from any one but
an expert. If tub of olemarsarine is
placed beside one of genuine butter of
poor quality, and an intending purchas-
err tastes the two. he is likely to prefer
the former unless of its character. The
grocer does not 90 out of the way to in
form him, and he is thus made the vic
tim of negative deception.
Gov. Cornell vetoed bill which pro-
hibited the coloring of artificial butter
or cheese on the ground that it interior
cd with certain patents granted by the
Federal Government which secured to
the patentees the right to color their art
ificial products. It is difficult to see up
on what ground patent is defensible
which grants to an individual or COM
pany the right by artificial means to sell
spurious article Us genuine. The pa
tent to the makers of oleomargarine was
to protect in the manufacture of an ar
ticle which should be an equivalent Of
butter, but not to protect them in
swindling the public into buying it I'M
der the impression that it Is the genuine
article.
All efforts to protect the public from
fraudulent imposition in buying oleo-
margarine must prove futile so long as
the genuine cannot be readily detected
from the spurious. The profits of the
deception are too large for the con-
science Of the average grocer or retail
provision merchant. Chicago Herald. 6.
