Cockroaches as Medicine.

r. Philadelphia medical Journal
has received communication from
Louisiana physician, asking if there
is any virtue in tea made from far
female coclkroaches, brandy aud SUI
gar. The following formula Of pre-.
paration used by old women nurses in
the South was also furnished: One
dozen fat female cockroaches. put in .
TO pint of boiling water latter being
bruisedD; let stand couple of hours,
then Strain well; add two table
spoonsfnl of brandy and one ounce
OF crushed sugar; stir till thoroughly
dissolved. Two tablespoons.ul eve
ry hour.
The professor of Materia Medlca in
Jefferson College said last night that
he presumed that cockroaches were
not entirely unknown in the medical
practice in this city, aud .cocIIroach
tea may be used with good effect in
certain cases, although, owing to the
public prejudice against the insect, il
would not be popular medicine.
The use of the cocikroach as duretic
III certain diseases is almost universal
IN Russia. and is very general now in
European medical practice as Il cure
for Bright's disease. TO what extent
1t may be used in Philadelphia is not
known. Physicians would not care
to have it known they prescribe 40 de-
tested an insect in their practice, and
few druggists will acknowledge that
they keep it III stock. It's medical
properties are in many respects the
same as those OF cantharides, and
when prescribed are III the shape of a
pill. made with the powder Of the
dried insect, or the 'cockroach' tea OF
the Southern 'grannies.' a Re ord
reporter, who visited several of the
leading drugstores OF the city yester
day and asked whether powdered
cockroaches were Kept in their stock {;
was told that they did not sell it, but
that prescription containing the nc,
tive principle (blattiden) can easily be
prepared by drying half-a. dozen OF
the animals and powdering them. so
as TO make pill, or /. solution can be.
and occasionally Ia, prepared by soak
ing Fat female cocSroac!e in whisky
l he Professor OF Materia Medica in
Jefferson College says that the cock
roach Is no more offensive than the
canthariIes. which are of the same
class OF animals, and their smell is. if
anything, much less disgusting Than
the mnch.used Spanish tly. Several
physicians who were interviewed yes
terday on the snbject said that, in
their opinion, 1t is Only matter OF
time when cockroaches, or tic active
principle. will be in as common use
IN this county as they are in Russia

COunterfeiting with the Pen.
New York World

One counterfciter of the paper issues of tho
government is very successful, however, as
he has been at work for ovor year and has
not vet been caught He is working in an
original but very limited field and, having
no confederates, is comparatively safe From
tho limited means employed by him he can
never food the country with any large issues
Of tho spurious notes. This countcrfeitcr
makes his notes with pen and skllful manip-
ulations of water colors. He confines himself
to twenties and fifties. The whole lnework
mon the back and face Of tho bills is made
with fine steel pen. The signatures are
superb and would enable this modest work
man to bloom out as a fiIstclaSs forger.
These bills will not bear close inspection, but
their general appearance is equal to that of
the genuine. When it is remembered that
this is no plate work, that can
turn off numerous Impressions, but
work that must be repeated in
each detail for every bill, it will be
seen that the skilful penman will never get
rich at this kind of work. Penmen estimate
that the most expert workmen could not
make over two or three bills in week, SO
that the man cannot make at the outside more
than $40 to 500 week. Such n skillful
traughtsman ought to be able to make asgood
a living legitimately. The notes were first
discovered In New Orleans. They are now
pickcd up in various parts of the country,
showing that this penman travels about using
these bills, made as he needs them to pay his
way.
carefully examined one of his twenties
to-day. 1t is a counterfeit OF the United
States treasury note and is SO well made
that it would deceive most any non-expert
Certainly the careless look given by the aver
age man who handles money would not dis
cover it. Its general appearance is much inn
proved by some process of giving the bill the
look of age and use.

ELBOWS that for mouth" said natural
list and sportsman to reporter pointing to
a mounted bird Oh the table. The bird was
mottled-brown specimen, about as large as
pigeon, with a mouth that stretched literally
from ear to ear.

noticing that it was in the birds mouth.
"That's just the point" replied the bird
man. "1ts a night.hawk. No, they don't eat
eggs; but that shows that bird exactly as
shot it, and thereby hangs n tale
Last summer had an old darby
that l took out coon hunting with
me to carry the truck, and one
night as we were blowing through hard lot
of brush l told him to so ahead and hold tho
lantern So he did, holding one OF these
iMlls-eye lanterns just over his head. lie
was about three feet ahead of me, when oil
at once heard a kind of a smash, and down
went the old fellow, lantern, basket and oil.
For few minutes he made it blue thcre, l
can tell you, but finally he got up swearing
something had struck him with an egg; sure
enough, his face was dripping with broken
egg, and on the ground we found night
hawk. She had flown Mt the light and
struck the old man fairly in the face, knock
ing him out. The egg business puzzled
me, however, But the next day when
I was out l came suddenly on to
smooth spot and saw a night-hawk throw
herself on her side and begin to go lame l
knew there was something up, and the next
minute / made out the nest and egg; but at
the first move made she darted at it, picked
up the egg in her mouth, and flew away.
was determined to sec how it was done, so
brought down my gun and shot her on the
wing, and l found her dead with tho egg i'll
her mouth.
"Wonderful' I should say so. You see
the nisht-hawks are supposed to have little
or no intelligence, but this fact shows them
to have more than the average maternal az
lection But that isn't all. About two weeks
later was out again in about the same spot
and saw my dog pointing. Wishing to make
n sketch, if possible, of various birds under
point, stole up on the dog, and for a mo-
ment was disposed to give her clubbing, as
there wasn't thing in sight only
bed of brown leaves and moss. But
as the dog kept pointing l looked closely,
and soon made out another night
hawk, and while l was looking the bird
picked up what looked like mole, and flew
heavily away. brought it down, and in Its
mouth was young one about as large as
mouse So, you see, they carry of 10th
eggs and young"
