A large number Of animals wash
themselves and battle, a. elephants,
stays, birds and ants. II we turn our
attention 10 tho question of repro,luc-
ton, We shall zee that all animals
s,ckle their young, keep them clean,
wean them st the proper time, and ed.
ucate them; but these maternal in
.tincts are frequently rudimentary in
women Of civilized nations. In fact,
man may take lesson in hygiene from
the lower animals. Aninals get rid Of
their parasites by using dust mud,
clay, etc. Those suffering from fever
restrict their diet, keep quiet, seek
darkness and airy places, drink water,
and sonnet mes even plunge into it.
When dog has lost its appetite it eats
that species of grass known a. dogs
grass (chiendent, which acts q an
emetic and purgative. Cats also eat
grass. Sheep and cows, when i'll, seek
ont certain herbs. When dogs are con-
stipsted they eat fatty sub tances,
such - oil and butter, with avidity,
until they Are purged. The same thing
il observed in horses. An animal suf.
fering from chronic rheumatiSm always
keeps - far - possible in the sun. The
warrior ants have regularly organized
Ambulances. Latreille cut the antenne
Of an ant and other ants came and
covered the wounded part with trans
parent auid secreted from their mouths.
II . chimpanzse be wounded, il stops
the blsesling by placing ita hand on the
wound, or dressing IL with leaves or
grssa When IN an NAL has wounded
leg or arm hanging on, IL completes the
amputation by means VI its teeth.
A dog on being stung In the muzzls
by viper was observed TO plunge its
head repeatedly for several days into
running water. This animal eventually
recovered. A sporting dog was run over
by . carriage. During three weeks in
winter il remained lying in Q brook,
where its food was taken 10 il; the ami.
NAL recovered. "A terrier dog hurt his
right eye; il remained lying under .
counter, avoiding light and heat, al.
though babitually IL kept close 10 the
FIRE. II adopted . general treatment, rest
and abstinence Tom 70 d. The local
treatment consisted in licking the upper
surface OF the paw, which il applied 10
the wounded eye, again licking the paw
when il he sme dry. Cats also. when
hurt. treat themselves by this ample
method Of continuous irrigation. N.
Delaney cites the csse Of Q cat which
renal ed for some time lying on the bank
Of river; also that Of snot' er cat which
had the singular fol titude TO remain for
forty-eight hours under jet Of cold va
70. Animals suffering from traumatic
fever treat themselves by the continued
application of cold, whi'h NJ. Delaney
considers TO be more certain than any Of
the other methods. In view Of these in
tsresting fas.ts, We are, he thinks, forced
TO admit that hygiene and therapeutics,
~ prscticed by animals, may, in the in.
forests of physiolxsv. be studied with
sdv ,ntage. He cs~&l 60 even further,
and say that vete mary medicine, and
perhap. human medicine, coull gather
from them some useful indications, pre-
cisely because they are prompted by In.
stinct, which are efficacious in the pres.
srvation or the restoration Of health. :.

JUDGE HOWE AS POSTMASTER
GENERAL.

The Washington Republican says:
ellis appointment to the Postoffice De-
partment proved to be one of President
Arthur's wisest acts It's great affairs
were speedily mastered by him, so that
each bureau head felt that there was not
oaly an authority above him, but one
that would know quickly of any friction
or delay. Under him the department
worked most tremendously, and every
subordinate who came in contact with
him knew that he might expect to find
the head az well informed as himself up
on the subject matter that was to be dis
cussed. His body was slight, but wiry
and well organized, and his mental fac
ulties were so clear and available for
work in his new sphere as they had been
when aiding in framing measures in COM
mittee or defending them on the floor of
the Senate He died at the age of 81, of
malaria. which deals havoc with young
and old alike He will be incurred by
his children, who but lately saw the
great fountains of the deep in his heart
broken up by Il great domestic sorrow !;
he will be mourned by friends who have
tor years delighted TO look into bis re-
fined face, TO feel the influence OF his
kindly eyes, and to hear the voice which
is now hushed forever. And State and
Nation will mourn him as Que in whom
each bad often, and without disappCint-
ment, reposed absolute trust"

WISCONSIN WEATHER.-Rev. Robel

WISCONSIN WEATHER. Rev. Robert
Smith, OF Lone Rock, has published a
statement respecting the seasons in Wis
consin which he deems of more importance
to the Northwestern ,agriculturalist and
horticulturalist than any OF all the prog
nostications OF Vennor and Wiggins. 1t
is simply this: The spring season in Wis
consin and other parts of'tEe Northwest
sets in generally from the northwest. This
has been the case eight years out OF the
last ten; 1875 aud 1882 are the exceptions.
These were the only years we had sum-
mer frosts. In four cases out OF five then,
we may look for 4 northwest wind by
west, that Will blow three days and three
nights without freezing, sometime be
tween the middle OF April ard the 10th
Of May It commenced on the 10Th OF
April, in 1880, and | planted beans and
sweet corn on the 18th, and put my to-
mato plants III the open air | would
plant sweet potatoes Gus OF hot beds as
soon as the wind blows. am accurate
in this observation. Now my reason is
mentioned, tits a sure proof that spring
has opened in British Columbia, the low
r saskatchewan, Dakota, Manitoba and
Minnesota, extending to Wisconsin and
urther south. And SO. long as the west
northwest wind brings frost in the latter
half of 4 prl and the beginning Of May,
you must not expose your tender plants
no matter how warm the south wind
blows"

Organic Weakness

Immediately cured aid full vigor restored. This
affliction-Which renders life burden and mar
rage impossible-is the penalty paid by the vic
tim of improper indulgence. Young persons
are too apt to commit excuses from not being
aware of the terrible consequences that may en-
sue. Now who that understands this subject,
will deny that pro-creation is lost sooner by
those falling into improper habits than by the
prudent? Besides being deprived of the pleas
ure of healthy offspring the most serious and de-
structivc symptoms of both mind and body
arise. The system becomes deranged, and phys
ical and mental functions weakened, loss of pro-
creative power, nervous irritability dyspepsia,
ptlpi alton of the heart, indigestion, constitu-
tional debility wasting of the frame, cough,
consumption, decay and death.
