Chloride OF Limo Said to Be Eabe<ivo
DispOsing of the Rodents.

Chloride Of Lime Said to be ENbotavo 4
Disposing of the Rodents.
Allow me to suggest simple means.
of getting rid of those pests. In the
year 1855 / was in command of the
British vessel Tubal Cain, lying along
side the wharf at Melbourne, embark
ing Chinese passengers for Hong-kong.
The wharfs were so infested with rats
that it was impossible to prevent their
getting on board, and my vessel was.
well stocked with them. After beir q
at sea few days, mustered the pa, -
sengers-with their effects-on deck, to
give them an airing, and for the pur--
pose of giving the passenger deck
good cleansing, and sprinkling some
chloride of lime mixed with water. I
also had couple of buckets of the
same mixture poured down the pumps.
This continued weekly: when, to my
surprise. the rats made raid on the
cabin (poOp) on deck. and became so
troublesome that neither myself nor
my officers cared about turning in at
night. A happy thought struck me-
that the chloride of lime had driven
them from below deck: so had every
thing cleared out of the cabin and the
stOrerooms. and freely used the mix
ture. This had the desired effect. the
rats taking shelter in every available
place outside. This gave us some good
sport, especially on a moonlight night,
when all hands engaged in hunting rats
and driving them overheard. so that by
the time we arrived at Hong-kong not
one was left on board. On my return
to England. l took house and fur
nished it. After being in it a short
time, found that it was infested with
rats. They would get through every
part on the ground-tloor. On EXAMINE
alton. l discovered that drain ran
under the house, emptying into the
harbor. here again used the chloride
of lime freely; and in less than week
every rat had taken its departure. l
have recommended this remedy to
many shipmasters and friends on shore;
and in all cases it has proved success.
l have occupied my present residence
for five years, and we have neither rat
nor mouse on the premises. Iattribute
this to the free use of the above mixi
ture, which is also effective as 4 deo-
doriser and disinfectant.-COr. Cham

Dr.. Findlater's Self-Help.

The late DIR. Andrew Findlater was
Il remarkable illustration of the fact
that energy and ability combined can
conquer any obstacles. Commencing
life in the farnc-ard, having been edu-
Gated at the village school, Findlater
lived to receive the honorary degree OF
Ii. d. from his university and edit the
famous Encyclopedia" with which the
name of Chambers is inseparably as
sociated. In order to learn Latin, he
used to get up at three in the morning;
and to qualify himself for admission to
college. his meal time was spent in
other studies. The secret of his sue
cess was self-denial. He sacrificed ev-
cry personal comfort to educate him.
self, and when he had perfected his
education the rest was comparatively
easy. Young men without friends or
means may derive a valuable lesson
from the career of Andrew Findlater.-

SULLIVAN'S IRON WASHER.
An Automatic Boxing Machine for the Use
of Aspiring Pugilists.


OF Aspiring Pugilists.
An ingenious gentleman in Hoboken
has invented an automatic pugilist.
1t is man made out of alligator skin,
springs, copper, sheet-iron and clock
work. 1t has hands and legs, wears
boxing gloves. and stands in the most
approved fighting position. 1t is de-
signed to take the place of a boxing
master. Upon being wound up the
machine will spar for four. six or
eight rounds, according to the desire
of the pugilist in training. BY turning
the proper key it will do feather-weight
boxing The middle-weight key fur
nishes the means of having it do mid
dle-weight sparring. By simply-turn-
ing the heavyweight key it will spar
like John l.. Sullivan. knocking a hole
through a twO-inch plank. 1t is so ar
ranged that it can walk around while
boxing within space of sixteen feet,
1t has a pair of leather lungs of the best
alligator hide, and does not become
winded in less than siXty-two rounds.
Its hands are of iron, its face is brass;
its nose is copper, and its ears are
east steel; its knees and elbows are
double-jointed. You can not hurt it,
and it could knock. John L. Sullivan
out in half round.
The automatic pugilist is made in
various sizes. from five feet six
inches to six feet three. and from one
hundred and twenty-five pounds to
two hundred and twenty-five pounds.
The two hundred and twenty-five pound
boxer would whip Sullivan and Ryan
quite easily.-N. T. journal

Second Wind

Every one who has run a mile
knows what it is to gain a second
wind" though he may not be able to
explain why one minute he is out OF
breath, and then feels aS if he could
runseveral miles. A writer in Long
mans MugaziIle gives this clear eX-
rlanaliou of the fact:
The reader may not be aware that
IN ordinary breathing we use only
portion of our lungs, the cells at the
extremity not being brought into
play.
This is the reason why those who
are not Gin training" and who ty to
run for any distance, soon begin to
gasp. and unless they are courageous
enough to persevere in spite of the
choking sensation, are forced to stop,
but if they persevere, the choking
goes off, and the result is what Is
technically known as second wind"
When The second wind is fully eatab-
liahed the runner does not become
out Of breath, hut goes on running as
long as his legs will carry him. l
know this by experience, having
been accustomed for some years to
run three miles every morning over
a very hilly road. The fact is, that
on starting, the furthest portion Of
the lungs are chOked with air, and
the remainder do not supply air
enough to meet the increased circu-
latiOn caused by exercise.
Now let the reader repeat his OK
pertinent of holding his breath
against time, but first let him force
out of his lungs every particle of air
that he can expal, and then draw as
deep breath as his lungs will hold.
If this be repeated seventy or eighty
times by way of imitation of the
whale, the eXperimenter will fad
that he can hold his breath for a
minute and half without inconve-
nienCe.
Should he be swimmer. be should
always take this precaution before
"taking a header" and he will find
that he can swim for a considerable
distance before he needs to rise for
| breath.
