-The first freight train passing

The first freight train passing
over the Texas & St. Louis railway was
composed of forty cars, each of which
contained eighty barrals Of salt. Each
barrel weighed 300 pounds, so that
the load carried by the entire train
weighed 100000 pounds in the aggre-
gate, OF 400 tons. Such train on a

4th of July. 1t will cost altogether
$1,1O0,0OO. At it's base it is IS feet

200th foot each side of the cone is 35

fact, and without any exception, that
none spring from the wealthy class,
nearly every one from the very poorest
class, and that only one brought any

Hints OH Sleep.

The question of chief Importance TO
most people in these overweight,
wakeful days and nights is how to get
good sleep enough. DR.. Corning drops
a few simple hints that may be of value.
In the first place people should have a
regular time for going to sleep, and it
should be as soon as can well be after
sunset. People who sleep at any time,
according to convenience, get less bene-
fit from their sleep than others; get
ting sleep becomes more difficult there
is q tendency to nervous excitement
and arrangement; the repair of the
system does not equal the waste. The
more finely organized people are, the
greater the difficulty and the danger
from this cause. The first thing i'll or
der to sleep well is to go to bed at a
regular hour aud make it as early as
possible. The next thing is to exclude
all worry and exciting subjects Of
thought from the mind some time be-
fore retiring. The body and mind
must be let down from the high pres
sure strain before going to bed, so that
nature can assert her right supremacy
afterward. Another point is never to
thwart the drowsy impulse when it
comes at the regular time by special
efforts to keep awake, for this drowsi-
ness is the advance guard of healthy,
restorative sleep.
Sleep is boon that must not be
tempered with and put off, for if com
PEELED to wait, it is never so perfect
and restful as if taken in its own natural
time and way. The right side is the
best to sleep or, except in.speclal cases
of disc ase, and the position should be
nearly horizontal. Finally, the even
! ing meal should be composed OF food
most easily digested and assimilated,
so that the stomach will have little hard
work to do. A heavy, rich dinner taken
in the evening is one of the things that
murders sleep. Late suppers with eX.
citing food and stimulating drinks
make really restorative sleep next to
impossible. Narcotics are to be avoid
ed, save as used in cases OF disease by
competent physicians. The proper
time. according to DR.. Corning, to treat
sIeeplessness, is in the daytime, and it
must be treated by a wise and tenn
perate mode of living rather than 10y
medicines This is good common
sense. SAYS the New York Star, from
which paper we copy, and doubtless
vast deal of the debility, nervous de-
rangement, and the insanity OF our
time would be prevented by more good,
restful, natural sleep.

Practical Treatment Of Diseses.


Whenever the treatment ol disease is un
ever simple may he the case, it is well to
remember certain practical points, not only
in the interest Of the animal, but in that of
the owner as we'll. Thus the action of
medicines differs, not only in the different
species of apimals; but also in animals of
the same species, dependent upon the age
and condition, and the stage OF the disease.
Salts form one Of the best purgatives for
cattle and sheep, while for the horse, Aloes
is best adapted. The action of RhuLaib,
ColocYnth, aud JalUp upon the horse is all
most nothing. Large quantities Of poison-
Gus substances may he taken by horses and
cattle with comparative impunity, while
C 'rtain drugs may be administered tn man
without injury which in the same quantity
would proye fatal to dog. The fact that
liquid substances, If given slowly, pass di-
rActly into the digesting stomach of the
ruminatiag ANIMALS, explains why il is
best to administer drugs in fluid form TO
cattle and sheep il we need their speedy and
certain action. In the administration of
liquids especially, the tongue should not be
held, for the entrance of the windppe is
left unguarded, and sutfncatinn may be pro-
duccd by the passage of foreign substances
directly into the lungs. Fortunately much
more reliance is now placed upon the re-
storatiye powers of nature than upon physic
IN the treatment of disease. Still drugs
must play their part, only their use should
be governed by reason aud common sense.
AS auxiiires to the administration Of medi
cine, proper regard should be paid to the
diet, ventilation. aud exercise of the ami
NAL. complete change Of diet, especially
in the spring, IS often of great service to
stock who appear to he nut Of condition.
For the horse that has lost its appetite, is
hide bound, and otherwise "out of sorts"
nothing acts better than bran mashes, which
should be always made with boiling water.
These are laxative, a ford some nuiriment,
and serve TO assist the action Of purgatves.
An old writer on the subject remarks: "As
food, mashes are remarkably soothing
and emolIient. 1t is like keeping the fat
and gouty patient, who has had more than
his share ol the good things Of this life, Oh
turnips, or on bran, or On sawdust pud
ding" Mnshes may be also made OF oats,
malt, lirseed, barely, and other grains, al
ter being bruised or ground. Poultices and
foueniuhuns act through the heat aud
moisture which they impart, whatever may
be the substances employed. They should
be always light, Of proper consistcnce, and
not applied too hot, or bound on too tightly
