Goals of Fire.

Ex-Gov. Horstio Seymour, of New
York, who lives on farm near Utica, IS
popular with the farmers about him.
He is always ready to lend hand, as
the following anecdote of his heaping
Goals of fire upon an offender illustrates:
A story is told that man coming into
The city with load of wood broke down
on the Deertield road, whom no one
stopped to help or paid any attention to.
Gov. Seymour came along, and got out
of his conveyance and helped him fix
I'D his wagon, gave him a strap from his
own harness and sent him on his way.
The man afterward said, 81 felt mighty
mean, because | stole the wood from
the governor"
But the joke of the affair is that Gov:
Seymour knew all along that the wood
had been stolen from him, but he con-
cluded that the man wanted 1t more
than he did.

This was the wear of the Russo-Tu rkish
war. and if the disease hal broken out
in Asia minor or the Balkans its rayages
would have been terrible. its progress
was stayed in 1878, and it did not reach
the Mediterranean ports.
1t is not easy to determine whether
the present appearance of cholera in
Egypt is directly connected with the
outbreak five years ago IN Arabia, or is
to be attributed to more recent infection
from India Whatever may be its

not ceased to be an awful warning. Its

ton between Asia Minor and Egypt on
the one hand and the hives of Indian
population on the other are no longer
SO densely thronged as to open an easy
passage for contagion. The railroad sys-

Egyptian trunk line have broken up
the business of the caravan routes and
and thereby diminished the danger of

these experiences, as they were report

Horses with rheumatism.

Horses are afflicted with rheumatism
brought on by exposure to cold storms
or from being left out in cold wind af-
ter being driven and heated. The usual
treatment ia TO give laxative medicines
for a horse, aloes three TO four drachms
at time, then follow up with aikalies,
such as bicarbonate of potash. Small
doses of colchicum are often beneficial
in one-hal drachm doses. Give warm
clothing and keep in a warm stable at
first. or, in other words, treat horse
that has taken bad cold and has an at

percilious man he was. He had no love

which ascribed to Mr.. Webster certain

rugged countenance, and turned
it over, Ind said No title page, anony-

Seasoning and Digestion.

An interesting report was read at the
last meeting ofthe Academic DIES Sciences
describing some experiments with salt
and other seasonings in regard to their
effect upon the process of digestion,
which may be summed up as follows:
Seasonings are absolutely necessary to
digestion, and the exact amount neces-
sarv is announced by what pleases the
taste. Salt IN particular stimulates the
appetite, eXcites the secretion of the
gastric Juice and aids in its formation, as
the chlorhydric acid into which it
changes in the stomach is one of the
principal ingredients Of the gastric juice.
These results only follow when the salt
is in minute quantities, not to exceed
five or ten grains to one-half kilogram OF
meat; above this amount it is injurious,
not only hardening the hbres oil the
meat, but arresting digestion and irrita-
ting the walls of the stomach. Some
pieces of meat were placed in a vial of
artifcially prepared gastric juice after
they had been soaked a few hours in
sine, brine, etc; the piece soaked in
White wine dissolved; or was digested,
at once, followcdsby the piece soaked
in vinegar, while apiece soaked in brine
and one left untouched, required long
time before an imperfect digestion took
place.
