Water Poultices.

water poultce for the throat NAV be
made as follows Take four thiClSnesses of
old cotton cloth, three or four inches wide.
and long enough to extend from ear to ear.
Dip it in water, hot or cold as the condi-
tion of the throat may require. Over these
folds OF cotton cloth apply layer of cot
ton-batting, an inch in thickness, and long
and wide enough to cover the cotton cloth.
Over this place a strip of waterproof cloth
or oil silk. Apply 10 the throat, and keep
in place by bandage. This poultice, If
cold, will induce a local sweating that will
relieve the mucous membrane or inner lin
ing of the throat. When nearly dry,
wiring the four folds of cotton cloth again
in cold water, and repeat the application
for two or four nights, if necessary 1t
may be wise TO keep children, who are
thus treated in the house for a few days;
but If they must go out on the following
morning, wash the throat with cold water
just before the patient leaves the house.
The water poultice should be cold in all
cases in which inflammation may exist,
but should be hot if liberation or suppura-
ton exists. a sore throat needs cold water,
but suppuration needs hot-as the diseased
throat of diphtheria or scarlatina in alb
scesses.
A sponge poultice has some advantages
above all others, and is made as follows
Make flannel bag three inches wide, and
as long as any given affection requires.
Fill this bag with very small bits of sponge;
then soak in hot or cold water, as the case
may need. Cover the outside with layers
of cotton batting. and over this some water
proof material. This poultice is elastic,
and may be kept constantly near the skin,
and will keep the throat at a uniform tenn
perature-a very important point in diph-
iberia and scarlatina, and all other mala-
dies in which suppuration exists. Cold
sponge poultices may be applied in the
early stages of scarlatina and diphtheria to
lessen the tendency to Inflammation

THE RULING PAssIoN.-That there is
nothing in this world more certain than
taxes and death is a trite saying Well.
here is a case in which the victim was
compelled to indorse the truth of the
above No matter about his name. He
lived in Armstrong county, and was not
only one of the most ignorant, but, singu
lar to say, one of the wealthiest farmers in
that county. He, so my informant verify
believed, never read newspaper which
came direct from the printer across his door
sill. Well, he became sick, and continued
to grow worse, until it was deemed prudent
to call a minister. One day he seemed to
be near his end, and was in great distress.
One of the three ministers present finally
approached the sorely distressed and dying
man and in a soothing voice said: Can |
say or do anything for you, my dear
Mr.. -? You seem TO be suffering in
tenselv. What is it that worries you so
much ?" The poor, ,narrow-minded farmer
struggling with death, gasped back TO the
minister: The taxes are too heavy. =

Danger in MoIdy Bread.

A singular case of poisoning from eating
a pudding made in part of moldy bread
is reported in the Sanitary Record. The
principal materials of the pudding con-
sisted of scraps of bread from making toast
and sandwiches, and they had been about
three weeks accumulating. To these scraps
were added milk, eggs, sugar, currants and
nut,neg. The whole was baked in very
slow oven, and was subsequently eaten by
the cook, the proprietor of the eating house
in which it was prepared, the children of
the proprietor and two other persons. All
of these became violently i'll, with symp-
toms of irritant poisoning. One of the
children (aged three years. and one of the
adults died. The uecropsy of the body of
the child caused the medical men to sus-
pect poisoning, and accordingly the vis-
cera, together with the remnant of the
pudding, the materials used in making it,
the matter vomited ETC., were sent to
chemical analyst, Alfred NJ Allen, for ex-
animation. He made tests for several
poisOns, but without positive result. A
puppy was fed with the pudding for two
days without any poisonous effect. He
was then led to look for ergot in the pud-
ding, and was soon startled to find un-
questionable evidence of its presence, as
far as chemical reactions went, though he
was unable, with the aid of the microscope.
to detect any actual ergot From these
facts Mr.. Allen infers that the reactions
heretofore supposed to be peculiar to ergot
are common TO other poisonous fungl.

hanged here to-day. The murdered man
was also Cuban. The crime originated
in a gambling quarrel. Recio denied the
guilt of this offense, but acknowledged

After being bound, Recio called for bottle
of wine and cigarette. He took a drink
with the greatest coolness, ana invited the
Jail officials to join him. Upon their de-
clining, he took second glass, dropped
his cigarette, and said he was ready.

hung himself in his cell. He was to have
been executed to-day.

HAIRpREss1NG IN JAPAN.-The Japanese
do not.use pillow in our sense of the
word They have small piece Of wood,
something ike a dog in shape. on which
they lay their heads, the girls and women,
serene in the consciousness that their hair
will not be disaranged. The wonderful
structure of japanese head dress is usually
made up once in four days. 1t is evident
that if it were tousled on q down pillow it
would have to be dealt with every day.
Children in some cases have the head
closely shaved, but more often the hair is
fantastically cultivated. A fayorite style is
to shave the head all around the crown,
leaving that covered with hair shaped like
skull cap Sometimes all is shaved save
few locks over the forehead Another
rather fetching design is to leave a couple
of well-defined locks over either ear, Just
enough to hold the child up by if that
were deemed q desirable disciplinary pro-
! cess.-[American Hair Dresser.
