Two Queer Russian Duels.

The warm season is the season of duels. While gentlemen shoot each other with pistols or pierce each other with swords, the common folk settle their troubles in their own way. Recently near Kalish two Polish peasants, blacksmiths by trade, had to settle the question, which one of them should have 8 girl with whom both were in love. Without much ado they armed themselves with the heaviest hammers they had and began the fight. The one swung his dreadful weapon straight at the head of his an tagonist, but the latter skillfully avoided the blow, and then in his turn he swung his hammer and crushed the head of his rival He got the girl.
 In the Crimea two Tartars quarrelled on account of their common sweetheart, and they agreed to settle their troubles in their own way. Without any artifi- cial weapons they met each other as the bucks do, striking each other with thei1 foreheads. They made half a dozen rounds; blood flowed from both of them, yet neither of the Tartars' would yield. After another furious round, one o1 them fell down exhausted. Being crazed by defeat, he drew his knife, and cut his throat on the spot. The winner crowned with a wreath of bumps, re. paired to his sweetheart, whom he now possesses alone.
 LOVE does not impute evil designs or thoughts of others

The Causes of Flushing.

The physiology of blushing has long presented difficult problem to solve. Many unsatisfactory explanations have been given of the causes of that inter- esting phenomenon. The British Medical Journal lately received an in- quiry as to the measures to be taken for the cure of chronic tendency to blush, and one of its correspondents takes up the matter Ill 8 very practical way. Among other causes of blushing he gives prominence to the wearing of too thick underclothing, and especially of too thick socks" He adds that long, sleeved woolen sacks or jerseys are often a cause of blushing, and, in fact, warm clothing ill general. He does not fail to remark that the blusher must choose ill this matter between the risk of rheu- matism and the annoyance of blushing. As collateral evidence in support of his views he says: "An aunt of mine had habitually red nose from this cause alone, which disappeared when she took to thinner stockings"
 Regarding the matter from a social standpoint, the writer says 'The best plan for an habitual blusher is to laugh and be very gushing, as, for instance on meeting an acquaintance in the street, when he colors up; and he vii feel more at his ease than if he looks sheepish and reserved"
 An obvious cause for bIushing ii over -sensitiveness and self-conscious ness, which will wear away as the perso1 1 becomes more used to society anl strengthens his character by adopting wise principles of thought and action The physiological explanation of blush ing given by the writer just quoted ii that it is due to paralysis of the sym pathetic circles of the nerves surround ing the arteries, which, not contractin. properly, allow freer flow of blood t, the surface.

EAGLE AGAINST GAME COCKS.
A Battle in Which the Bird of Freedom
 Does ali the Growing.
From the Santa Barbara Press.

A fine specimen of the American eagle, caught on one of the islands opposite Santa Barbara some time ago, has been kept tied up in the yard of Birabent's Hotel for some time, awaiting pur- chaser. This noble bird was sold Fri day, and was temporarily placed in the yard of game fowl fancier. who smiled significantly when warned that the eagle might hurt his fowls. The grim-looking bird had not been in the yard long before the game cocks began to crow and strut up and down in front of the strange vis- itor. The eagle sat quietly in the cen tre of the yard, apparently unconscious of the presence of the noisy game cocks, until suddenly one of them flew at him and struck him upon one of his wings.
 He looked down upon the little chan ticleer with a curious, inquisitive glance, as much as to inquire what was the mat ter? Then another brave game fowl struck him in the breast, while number one hit him on the neck. The noble bird now opened his wings with lazy, leisurely swing, erected his chest feathers and his eyes seemed to blaze like coals of fire. The American eagle was becoming interested in the business and rather angry. Again one of the golden pheasant fowls dashed recklessly at the eagle, grasping bunch of feath. ers. in it's attack. Before it could recover from it's charge the eagle had extended one of it's talons and seized the game cock by it's neck and by dextrous swing laid it futtering and quivering be- heath it's left foot.
 The second game fowl then charged upon the huge stranger, whose wings were now half opened and lazily rising and falling. As the game cock strucl it was met with blow from the eagles wing, and as it fell was caught in the open talons of the captive foe and laiG struggling and dying upon the ground The victor did not appear to be the leas excited, and, after thus disposjng of its troublesome adversaries, lazily stepped to one side and seemed to relapse into state of meditative reflection, every once in while looking down indifferentl, upon the bloody trophies of it's power lying dead at it's feet.

An Extraordinary Battle.
FERoCITY OF BEES IN CARRYING ON A
 BATTLE FOR TWELVE HOURS,

A remarkable instance of the fetocity of bees under certain conditions has just been afforded. A couple of days since the Topsham Horticultural and Cottage Garden Society held its annual exhibi- tion at The Retreat, near Exeter, Eng land. One of the tents was occupied by the Devon and Exeter Bee-keeper's As sociation and among its exhibits was one which excited very great deal of in terest. This was case containing sev- eral thousand dead drones which had lost their lives in 8 sanguinaty battle 8 couple of days previously. A well known aparian was visiting friends house day or two previously and on coming to one of the bee hives it was found that there was great uproar inside. Close inspection showed the ground be- low the hive to be covered with several htindred dead drones and hosts of them were still being brought to the entrance and bundled out by the workers, gener- ally by being seized behind the head and dragged along to the exit, where, as kind of farewell, sting was given to them. Examination of the slain revealed the fact that they had been severely handled. Many were headless, others had lost legs or wings or both and all bore evidence of rough usage. That the bees were very much the superior force was shown by the fact that only about fifty of them had fallen in the fray, remark able disproportion to the number slair of the enemy. The battle had ragged from about seven in the morning to the same hour ill the evening and seemed then to end only with the utter annihi lation of the drones.

HOW WATCHES ARE MADE.

It will be apparent to any one, who will OK. anime SOLID GOLD WATCH, that asid. rom the necessary thickness for engraving and polishing, large proportion of the precioui metal used, is needed not only to stiffen and hold the engraved portions in place, and sup ply the necessary solidity and strength. The surr Jus gold is actually needless so far as UTIL. ErY and beauty are. concerned. In JAMES BOSS PATENT GOLD WATCH CASES this WASTE of precious motal is overcome, and the SAME soIIDTTY AND STRENGTH produced al from one-third to one half of the usual cost o, solid cases. The process is of the most simple nature, as follows: plate of nickle compost ton metal, especially adapted to the purpose, has two plates of SOLID GOLD soldered one on each side. The three are then passed between polished steel rollers, and the result is striF Of heavy plated composition, from which the cases, backs, centres, bezels, &o., are cut and shaped by suitable dies and formers. The gold an these cases is sufficient to admit of all kinds of chasing, engraving and enameling the engraved cases have been carried until worn perfectly smooth by time and use withou, removing the gold.
 THIS IS THE ONLY CASE MADE WITH TWO PLATES SOLID GOLD AND WARRANT. ED BY SPECIAL CERTIFICATE.
