How tO Cool a Room.

The following method of cooling a room could be used to advantage at small expense: The composing room of the New Orleans Pioaytne is situated in the upper story of its publication house, just under the roof, and in sum mer is extremely hot. An inspiration seemed to have come to one of the op- pressed occupants, and in accordance with it vertical wooden box was con- structed in the corner of the room, with openings at the floor and ceiling, and furnished with pipe for supplying wa ter at the top, and a pan and drain at the bottom for receiving the flow and carrying it safely away. The supply pipe was bent over the upper end of the shaft, and fitted with rose like that of watering-pot, SO as to deliver n shower of spray instead of a solid stream. On connecting it with the service pipe the movement of the water was found to cause an active circulation of the mir in that part of the room, which was drawn in at the upper opening of the shaft and issued again, cool and fresh, at the floor level. The most surprising thing about the experiment seems to have been the effect of the water in cooling the air to a degree much below its own tempera- ture. With Mississippi water, which when drawn from the service pipe indi. cated temperature of eighty-four do grees, the air of the room in which tho thermometer at the beginning of the trial stood at ninety-six, was cooled in passing through the length of tho shafi to seventy-four degrees, or about twenty degrees below the temperature at which it entered, and ten degrees below that of the water which was used to cool it Of course the absorption of heat by thu evaporation of portion of the watei accounts for its refrigerating effect, bu the result seems to have been SO easil, and inexpensively attained that the ex pertinent would be well worth repeatinI in other cases.

OUR SANITARIUM.
Sunburn, Cool Drinks, Mosquito StinRs and
 Hot Weather Hints.

A little sun-burn is good for the skin. When the skin has become thoroughly red, vaseline, cold-cream or milk should be put on the face and hands before re- tiring, and rubbed well into the pores. In the morning, wash in warm water and very little white castillo soap.
 A saltwater bath, even if taken in the bath-tub at home, will prove beneficial to the health. For home use rock-salt is purchased and about three pounds of it put to one tub of water.
 A cooling and healthy summer drink is made as follows: Take & teaspeonful of oatmeal and mix it with the juice of a lemon and two Jumps of sugar; add cold water to the glass and drink after it has stood few moments.
 Americans drink too much ice-water, the settlement from the ice being what makes 1t unhealthy. The best way to cool water is to fill three or four bottles from the faucet and place them in the ice box, next to the ice. The water soon becomes deliciously cool and 1t is far more healthy to drink.
 A little vinegar put into the watei when washing this warm weather will make the skin feel delightfully."- cool.
 Meat should only be eaten twice day at this season. Fruits of all kinds, cereals and ices are far healthier and cheaper.
 The sting from mosquito bites may bC entirely removed by rubbing well witl salt. If a sponge saltwater bath if taken before retiring it is said the mos quitoes will not come near, as they dis like the salt.
 For feet swollen by the heat running water is the best remedy. The wate should not be too cold or warm, anC should run slowly over all the feet They should then be dried with a sof towel and put on a chair for time tC let the blood recede.

THE COUNTRY SCHoOLHoU USE.

The schoolhouse stood beside the way, shabby building, old and gray, With rattling sash and loose hung door, And rough, uneven walls and floor; And why the little homespun crew It gathered were some way more blest Than others, you would scarce hay
 guessed;
 It is 8 secret known to few. I'll tell it you. The high road lay Stretched all along the township hill, Whence the broad lands sloped either way, And smiling up did strive to fill
 At every window, every door, The schoolhouse with that gracious lore That Gods fair world would fain instil. So softly, quietly it came, The children never knew it's name; It's various unobtrusive looks, They counted not as study books; And yet they could not lift an eye From play or labor dreamily, And not find writ in sweetest speech, The tender lessons it would teach: ''Be gentle, children, brave and true, And know the great God loveth you" Only the teacher, wise of heart, Divined the landscapes blessed art; And when she felt the lag and stir Of the young idlers fretting her, Out-glancing OCT the meadows wide, The ruffling woods, the far hillside, She drew fresh breath of Gods free grace, A gentler look came in her face, Her kindly voice caught in it's own An echo of that pleasant tone In which the great world sang it's song "Be cheerful, patient, still and strong"

DIRE POVERTY OF PRINCESS ALdoE.- Why was Princess Alice so terribly hard up Tasks an English paper. The Queen gave her $5OO, 1000, and she received from the country $150,OO and $3O,OOO per annum on her marriage. Her own income, therefore, must have been about $5O, 900, and her husband, although not wealthy, had something. There are few private persons in the town that have an income of $5, GOO per annum. Allowing, therefore, moderate sum for ladies in waiting and such like opportunities, one would have thought that there would have been no necessity for the minute economies which are recounted in the Memoirs.

Last Saturday evening about forty
young people from Benson arrived
here by special train fer the purpose
of visiting the Morris roller rink and
having good time generally. The
weather was extremely cold but for
all this goodly number of Morris
skaters were also in attendance. The
floor was filled with skaters, Through
out the evening and all seemed to EN-
joy themselves. The skating was
kept up until about eleven o'clock
when the Benson people adjourned to
the Metropolitan hotel for supper.
They left for home on the regular

The Arab compels his horse to feed
from the ground in order to maintain
the curve of the backbone. This is
the natural way of feeding, and is an
argument for low managers.
A farmer who has had considerable

A writer of some experience in far
ming says; A farm can be stocked
| with sheep for less money than with
cattle, horses or hogs. Sheep will
come nearer utilizing everything that
grows on the farm than any other
animal. Less labor will be required
for getting teed and stock together.
The returns will come in sooner and
oftener than any other farm-stoek, ex-
cept hogs: Less money is required for
sheltering and fencing and less labor
is involved in herding, where outside
pasturage is accessible, and preferred.
And finally a handsomee income on
the Investment can be had without
the sale of animals themselves.

other domestic animal, and yet in
some way live and measurahly thrive,
1t can never reach its best, however,
when stinted in food and neglected in

and regular attention, are matters
which the horse raiser can ignore only
at his cost.
