DR.. FOOUo on Divorce.

The average human being of to-day,
is as much SUPERIOR to the average man
or woman of 500 years ago, as first
class Yale lock is superior to an ordina-
ry paddock. To unlock one Of the M
proved instruments, the key must have
just so many wards, and they must be
most perfectly. adjusted. A Yale lock
will most certainly repel any ordinary
key. There is constant increasing go
ing on in the commissions of the human
brain, as intelligence increases, and to
get human beings together that can bar
monte under these circumstances, is
not so easy matter as it once was. One
would suppose however, on first thought,
that when two got together that were
tolerably adapted, they might stay so
for twenty-five or fifty years, if they
lived so long.-Dr. Foote'S Health
Monthly.

Ping Eve in Cattle.

The disease known as pink-eye, or in

among cattle, and has very much the

infamed membranes. The whole Of the
head is affected by general catarrh, the
COWS suffer generally from the fever and
fall of in milk. In course of time the
interior membranes of the eye become
clouded with pus and the eye turns
white, when blindness follows. 1t is
doubtless malarial in It's nature and due
to atmospheric or general causes, and
appears sporadically, or here and there,
a few in each herd being attacked. 1t is
not frequent disease among COWS, but
appears chiefly where they are lodged
in b 'sement stables, or are postured on
rich undrained soil. or in the fall,
weather or temperature. The treatment
should consist Of vigorous purging Of ep-
som salts. txo pounds given at once;
after that half-ounce doses of chlorate Of
potash should be given daily. The eyes
should be bathed in warm water
and c]eansed and two or three
grains "a full pinch) of burned alum
Should be blown in the eye through a
small Quill daily. 1t will be best to keep
the COWS in stable and protected from

LABOR IN ENGLAND.

Pending the agitation Of the tariff

count of the condition of English Ia
borers may afford food for reflection:
In the Black Country, within seven
miles OF the great free trade city of
Birmingham. "a 900 people are engaged
in making nails and rivets. About
1000 of these operatives are females.
A writer ia the London Standard who
visited this center of English industry
not long ago, draws vivid picture of
the poverty and distress there witnessed
He says:
"In the middle of shed which adj
joins squalid-lOoking house there is
whole family at work In the produc-
tion of these nails; father, mother, sons
and daughters-daughters too, very
young in years, but with that sad look
of premature age which is always TO be
noticed in the faces of child workers.
The gayely of youth, its freshness and
its gentleness. seem 10 hs crushed out of
them. In the center of the shed,
with its raitered ceiling-a bleak and
Wretched building through the walls of
which the wind readily finds it's way
there is "hearth, ;" ted by "gledes" or
breezes. Probably there is a girl or
the strips of iron from which the nails
are made become molten"
The homes of these unfortunate la
borers are said TO be dismal beyond de-
scription. In many instances they are
more like novels than human dwelling
places" They are devoid OF all ordi-
nary conVeniences. They shelter, land
that is all, the toilers who for a few short
hours rest within their rickety walls.
In nine cases out OF ten there is only
one room below and two above; and in
ninety-nine cases out of hundred they
are Inhabited by large families. "How
they manage II exist at ali ia some of
the houses is problem which may well
exercise the ingenuity of some social
philosopher to solve"
AS to the wages these people get, the

credibly small. It is no unusual thing
