character of the beer drank in that city,
it having been found that lager beer

and four in the afternoon, the latter be-
ing drawn from a faS Get after standing

the morning drawings showed small
quantities OF copper and zinc, and those
drawn in the afternoon showed larger
quantities OF the same. The conclu.
sions arrived a. were that these fawcets
do impart TO the beer a part OF tho
metal OF which they are composed. Thu

II Is the highest Importance to ascer-
tain the causes Of the diarrh@al diseases,
because many Of them are avoidable aud
may be mitigated by intelligent FORE
thought. Farther. this forethought must
to great degree be exercised by parents,
as the physician is not generally consulted
until the mischief is done. Many causes
have been assigned. but among them
there are pre-eminently effective for all
the varieties Of diarrhea above described
namely, bad hygienic surroundings, i'm
proper diet and the great heat OF summer.
There is no element Of bad hygiene that
is without its influence, since every de-
bilitating circumstance and condition is
definitely favorable to the development of
the bowel troubles. But prominent
among them are damp situation Of the
house, bad ventilation, overcrowding, and
filth. The influence Of dampness 10 well
recognized, and probably efficient partly
directly, and partly by the aid it furn.
ishes to the decomposition of refuse and
tilth.
The proper diet Of infants and children
is probably even more damaging than
bad hygenic surroundings. Food may be
unsuitable in many ways. Among the
very poor and ignorant CLASSES that the
baby il allowed the same food, whatever
il may b., that the family have. But
among those who are not poor, and who
are eager to do their best for their chill.
dren, much harm is done through ignor.
ance and misguided zeal. A multitude
d foods are prepared with great care for
children which are either worthless or
almost certain to irritate their digestive
organs. Probably the two commonest
errors are Il. the ace Of foods excessively
stArchy and the making Of them too con.
centrated or " rich, in the idea that they
are thus more nutritious, the makers BE-.
ing entirely ignorant Of The absolute ne.
cessity that the food Of young children

A Philadelphia dispatch says; For
two months past Colonel A. Loudon
Snowden, Superintendent Of the Mint.
has been working upon an invention TO
render counterfsiting the United States
coinage practically impossible. Some
weeks ago he made wooden model Of
his own with twice bisected collar.
which was intended to form raised letter.
upon the peripheries Of all Quilted States
coins. After this had been tested he had
several steel collars made upon the same
pattern and adjusted to the enormous
toggled silver coinage press Of the mint.
For days and weeks Colonel Snowden
persevered in experiments, that were
often most disheartening, for he found it
q nearly impossible task to adjust the
opening and shutting Of the bisected col
lar to the rapid motion Of the dies. On
the 18th Of June . inal experimental
test was made, and it was . perfect sue
cess. Heaps Of round silver pieces, -
smooth - ice and a glistsning - dew
drops, were placed in tall hollow tube
1t the outer edge Of the press. These
pieces were embryo silver dollars. With
mathematical Greatness all the moving
machinery Of the dies was adjusted 20
that it would work simultaneously with
the opening and shutting Of the collar.
After the hywheel Of the coiaing press
had made . few revolutions the travelling
metal claws were adjusted TO gasp the
int round silver piece, aud then the ma-
chine was put 1t full spsed. The silver
dollars were stamped and lettersd BY ths
new collar. and began to pour into the
tray beneath like metallic hail. The
shower Of precious metal wss allowed r
continue without interruption for two
minutes, when the coming process VA
stopped and the dollars wsrs examined.
The test confirmed all expectations. A.
each one Of the experimenting party beld

SOME NINE POINTERS.

AS an incentive TO the further dcvel-

San Francisco Mining aud Scientific

the buyers will hunt up Che mine, where
as when it is unproductive the mine has
to hunt up the buyers. Nothing looks
more damaging to camp than to see
lot Of half opened mines lying idle. Peo-
pie who might invest get the impression
on seeing idle claims that they cannot be
worth much or some Of them, at least,
