Health of Hogs.

There are many things to observe IN
preserving the health and growth Of
hogs. especially where a farmershas q
large number of them. The common
say ing is, las dirty as a hog And
vet in some respects hogs are particu-
lar about cleanliness: AMI it is especi-
ally important that their, food, drink,
beds and quarters should be clean.
Damp or poorly ventilated places of
keeping are the cause of many dis
eases, and aggravate others. Hogs
are the easiest and best way t. make
m ney if their health can be preserved,
consequent y itwn justify any one TO
take q, eat care and incur considerable
expen. e to insure their health. Carbolic
acid is the best agent to use about hog
pens and to mix with their food. 1t is
safe. easily. understood, and can be
used or administered by any enc with
out the least danger, 1T is cheap, and
farmers should use it freely in purify
ing the pens, beds, and any foul
places where the hogs frequent. If hog
cholera is in the neighborhood, and
hogs have been exposed by having dead
hogs hauled through the neighborhood,
or if cholera is at any place above
them on a stream of water, no matter
how far, hogs should be given carbolic
acid three times a day. Ten drops is
enough for a hog weighing one hun
dred pounds. aud the dose graduated
more Or less, as the hog is heavier or
lighter. 1t can be given in liquid or
around food, and the quantity is so
light that it will be freely taken. 1t is
not claimed that it is a remedy for
cholera or any other malignant disease,
but is good to ward off or intercept any
diseases. And it is SO healthy an agent
that it can be proftably u. ed at all
times in a limited way, but when there
is any probability of contagion being
about use cit Law. silly, both as disin-
fectant and as an inward immunity
from disease. A bbttle of it should
always be kept about horse stables, and
solution of carbolic acid sprinkled
about the stalls, and especially If the
stables are damp or are lacking in VEN
ti!ation. Its success in all such cases
is indisputable.-Iowa State Register.

Summer Dresses.

The summer dresses seen on CITY
streets are of the simplest design and
materials. and owing to the great heat,
full dress is scarcely worn even at elab-
crate entertainments. The glace mo-
hair dresses with wide Hercules braid,
Or with black or blue velvet trimmings,
are seen in the. palest French gray
shades for driving toilettes, at the races,
at church. and also at day rec aptions.

light in this lustrous fabric, and make
them up with great deal of white lace
about the corsage, and add to them q
bonnet of white lace, with little gray
velvet on the brim, and some gray tips,
or marabout aigrette. This delicate
combination of gray and white make a
very refined and summary costume, but
only the palest clear shades of gray
must be used. as the deep steel tints
have an elderly look. Sometimes q
trimming of silver beads is used to
form a plastrsn or a vest, and there

Ingenious Methods Devised for R0bbiRg
the Mails.

"a Post-office thief seldom has con-
fedsrates, remarked Chief Inspector
Sharp. of the Post-oaice Department,
as he sat conversing with a group of
friends. The conversation had turned
to the general subject OF mail robberles
very naturally after the rather gossippy
discussion of the case of young Cook.
of the CITY Post-office, whose arrest for
stealing registered letters was men
toned in the Star last week.
ssCook was q smart young man"
Mr.. Sharp observed. "He was grad
uste OF Annapolis and had just taken a
leave of ten days when the inspectors
tracked him down. They believed that
he was the thief. but they wanted to
secure the proper evidence. he had
announced that he was going to try to
PASS an examination for admission in
another branch OF the service, and that
IL he succeeded he would not return to
the Post Office. When found that out,
I went to the official in charge of the
examination. and said: we believe the
man is thief, but we can't prove 1t.
IF he passes your examination, he won't
come back to the Post Office, and we
cafast catch him.
The official said that he would see
that he was rejected, and sure enough
he was. When.the ten days leave had
expired he had nothing else to do. and
so he returned to his desk in the POST
Office. As soon as he had returned he
went right to stealing and we soon had
him fast enough with our decoy letters

scene. unbroken save by the fire that
flashed necessarily from the guns Of the
hostile fleet.
All the while the Orient had been
foremost in the tight, and her decks
were covered with the dead and dying.
Admiral Brueys saw that all hope of
victory was lost, but like a gallant
Frenchman he resolved never to surren-
der. He had already received three
wounds. but would not leave his post.
A fourth cut him almost in halves, and
he fell upon the deck. where he desired
to be left to die.
Louis Casabianca now took the COM
mand, and his young son, brave and
gallant as q man of mature years, was
given post at once of the batteries.
The issue was now no longer doubt
full. Anchored fast in their position,
the English fleet poured in the shot and
shell upon the remnant of the French
armament. But the battle was not
vet ended nor the victory won so long
as the Orient still sailed. Every thing
that could be done by brave COM
mander was performed by Captain
Casabianca at this gloomy jrncture.
Alas! both fate and fortune were
against him. Scarcely was Brueys
dead, when Il fire broke out on board
the ship, and soon the lofty stern was
all in flames.
