DAMP HoUsEs-Persons who are unfortu-
nate enough to live in damp houses, particular
ly near undrained land, are apt to think that
there is no help for them save in removal.
They are mistaken. Experiments have shown
that it is possible to materially improve the
atmosphere in such neighborhoods in very
simple manner-by the planting of the laurel
and sunflower The laurel gives off an abun-
dance of ozone, whilst the 'soul-fuleyed' sun
flower is potent in destroying the malarial
condition. These two, if planted Oh the most
restricted scale in garden, close to the house,
will be found to speedily increase the dryness
and salubrity of the atmosphere, and rheuma-
tism, if it does not entirely become memory
of the past, will be largely alleviated.

sg- The danger IF feeding smutty corn to
live stock is not the greatest evil to be appre-
hended from the practice. 1t is well known
that where the dis oased corn has been used to
any considerable extent the diseases engepder-
ed thereby have been very serious to the Il health
of animals, and it is now the time that the far
mer should take the precaution to select all the
damaged corn from the bulk of the crop and
destroy every grain, not only to save their
horses and cattle from the effects which nee
essarily follow their feeding upon the diseased
grain, but also to preserve their lands from
being overrun with the pestiential results of
replanting. Prof. Bossey, of the Iowa Agr-
cultural College, has given this subject much
attention, and conducted experiments which,
though not developing the cause of the disease
in corn, vet has found by the successive plant
ing of the grain in the same field that the en-
tire crop in a few years has been entirely
ruined.

TREATMENT FOR RINGBoNE.- -Ringbone
consists of inflammation of the joint of the
foot and deposit Of a bony matter just above
the coronet and above or below Tor both) the
pastern joint. I'm the end the bony matter
covers the joint and renders it immovable.
The treatment of newly formed rlngbone
consists in giving the animal rest, using a
higher or a lower heeled shoe, as the case may
need, as the horse walks on the toe orheel. To
reduce the heat and inflammation apply cold
water with wet bandages, and when this has
been effected, apply a blister made of 20 grains
each of corrosive sublimate and camphor, III
drops of muriatic acid, and l ounce of turpen-
tine When the blister is formed the part IS
washed and creased with lard. If this is OF
no avail, firing may be done with benefit, es-
pecially with young horse. One ounce of
hypo sulphite of soda may be given daily
for two weeks to remove any rheumatic ten
dency.

SLEEpLEssNEss.- Medical Press and
Circular contains some good suggestions about
the hygienic treatment of sleeplessness, which
are summarized as follows: Wet half towel,
apply it to the back of the neck, pressing it
upward toward the base of the brain, and
fasten the dry half of the towel over so as to
prevent the too rapid exhalation. The effect
is prompt and charming, cooling the brain,
and inducing calmer, s%eeter sleep than any
narcotic. Warm water may be used, though
most persons prefer cold. To those who suf-
fer from over-excitement of the brain, wheth-
er the result of brain-work or pressing anxiety,
this simple remedy has proved an especial
boon

BEDDING FOR SToCK.-It is economy to
give the horse, COW or other stock k-housed
through the wnter-a good bed. 1t has much
to do with the saving of food and keeping
them in thriving condition, to say nothing OF
the obligation man is under to provide for the
dumb animals over which he is given "domin-
ion" Litter, for the purpose, can be provided
with very little trouble or expense. There is
the refuse fodder, straw and other matter,
which can be thus utilized and turned into eX-
cellent manure. Not only so, but large
amount of the most valuable part of the ex-
crements, which would otherwise be lost, can,
by this practice, be saved Fine sand makes
very good bedding, and an excellent dressing
for any heavy soil. Sawdust, too, can be very
adventageously used for this purpose. Indeed,
there is no farmer that cannot provide litter OF
some sort for his stock, and should and will do
so if he understands his business and consults
his own interests.

Ksr The gospel is not fully preached unless it
is positively proclaimed that "Whosoever be-
lieyeth not shall be damned" Jonah was cer-
tainly very successful preacher, and so far as
we are informed, he said nothing, but ''Yet
forty days and Nineveh shall be destroyed" A
law without penalty is worth nothing. The
only condition of the covenant is faith--belieye
and be saved-but God always deals fairly,
candidly and honestly with the sinner. Hence
he makes it the duty of preachers of the gospel
to proclaim in the ears of every one, that who
soeyer beleyeth not shall be damned.

THE CONSULTATIONS OF GoD.-IIave you
ever seen, or, perhaps, made one of party of
people who are going to explore some dark
deep cavern-the Mammoth Cave of Kentucky,
or the Catacombs of Rome? They all stand
out in the sunlight, and the attendants, who
know the journey they are going to make, pass
round among them and put into the hand Of
each lighted candle How useless it seems
how pale and colorless the little flame appears
in the gorgeous flood of sunlight But the
procession moves along; one after another en-
ters the dark cavern S mouth ; one after anoth-
er loses the splendor of daylight; in the hands
of one after another the feeble candle light
comes out bright in the darkness; and by and
by they are walking in the dark, holding fast
their candles as if they were their very life
totally dependent now upon what seemed SO
useless half an hour ago. That seems to me
to be picture of the way in which Gods
promises of consolation, which we attach very
little meaning to at first, come out into beauty
and value as we pass on into our liyes.-Phil-
ipS Brooks

How TO Boil RICE Few cooks seem to know
how to prepare this article of food properly so Il
hint or two will not be out of place here. The
rice must be carefully picked over, and then
washed in cold water until it is free from all
the loose starch which may adhere to it, OF
until the water looks clear. Then dry it. 1t
can be put in sieve for this purpose. In
placing it over the fire, use three pints OF
water to cup of rice and tablespoonful OF
salt. The water must be boiling before the
rice is added. Boil precisely twelve minutes,
and then pour off the water. Then place the
saucepan with the rice on the back part of the
stove, where it will keep warm without burn
ing for ten minutes longer, with the cover
partly removed. In this way it is not soggv,
or too soft, and every grain is cooked sepa-
rately by itself. After being cooked, if left
covered, it will soften and the grains will
burst open in their delicate tenderness.

How TO OBTAIN LONG LIFE. Thousands
of people annually ruin their constitutions by
simply swallowing too much medicine. 1t
may seem st, ange thing for a medical man
to say, but it !, nevertheless fact. 1t is a
dangerous thing to fly with every ailment to
the medicine chest. The use of tonics unless
under medical advice, should be discounte-
nanced a tonic is sharper than two-edged
sword it is tool that needs to be used with
caution. There are now, am sorry to see,
aerated waters coming into use which contain
the strongest mineral tonics that are apt to
accumulate in the system with the most dis
astrous results. They should, therefore, not be
drunk ad Hbitum as to quantity or without
guidance as to quality. Rest should be taken
with great regularity. One day in seven
should be set apart for the complete rest of
both body and mind Independent of this, all
who can afford it should take an annual holi-
day. Travelling is cheap, and two weeks OF a
months relaxation from care and business can
not make big hole in the purse of one who
works well all the rest of the year, and knows
how to economize time. Innocent pleasure
and wholesome recreation conduce to longevi-
ty. All work and no play sends Jack to an
early grave. Recreation is to the mind and
nervous system what sunshine is to the blood
AS physician l must be allowed to say just
one word about the quieting, calming effect of
religion upon the mind. The truly religious
make by far aid away the best patients, their
chances of recovery from serious sickness are
greater, and so is their chance of long life,
simply owing to the power they have of sub
mitting themselves quietly, yet humbly and
hopefully, to whatsoever there may be before
them.
