Cocaine in Hay Fever.

IRON Lne LONDON Lancet.
The therapeutical uses OF cocaine
are so numerous that the value of this
wonderful remedy seems only begin
ming to be appreciated. Almost daily
we near of some disease or conbina-
ton OF symptoms in which it has been
tried for the first time and has an
swered beyond expectation. 1t APP
pears strange that so intractable a
complaint as hay fever should be
amenable to its influence, and vet
such is the case. The account given
by Mr.. Watson of the Westminster
hospital of his sutferings and subse-
quent cure by tabloids of cocaine is
too clrcumstantlal to admit OF doubt
even had we not received cOnfrmatory
evidence from many sources. 1t has
been objected on theoretical grounds
that cocaine must of necessity be in
operative, or at all events of compar-
atively little use, in those cases in
which symptoms ofan asthmatic type
prevail. CuriOusly enough, however,
1t has been shown that cocaine, when
applied to the mucous membrane OF
the nostrils has the power of allaying
even this spasm. The observation,
too, is not new; for many months ago
DIR. Bosworth, professor of laryngolo-
gy at Bellevue Hospital Medical Col
lege, published a detailed account of a
case OF spasmodic asthma completely
cured by cocaine. He pointed out at
the time that many inveterate cases OF
asthma are dependent on, or at all
events associated with, nasal disor-
ders, the relief of which is promptly
followed by an abatement OF all the
distressing symptoms. If this prin-
ciple Of associated treatment should
be carried on in its integrity it will be
difficult tC assign the limits of its
sphere OF action.

The Knight ofthe FIat-Iron.

tFrom the st. Louis Globe Democrat
The one cheap thing in Japan is the
washing, which is well and beautifully
done at the laundries for the modest
rate OF 81. so for 1OOpieces. Theskirt
or single piece OF the most deliberately
frilled and puCkered dress iscounted in
at two and one-half cents, as we'll as a
single handkerchief, and the smallness
OF the laundry bills is a perpetual sur
prise and the greatest comfort in life.
Wash-day never comes to disturb q
household. They starch their gar
ments with rice water. The Japanese
iiat-lron is nothing more than the orig
lnal and primeval warming-pan put
to more constant use, and the shock
foreign woman gets is to find a smil-
ing amah pressing the wrinkles out OF
her dress with such a dangerous look
ing continuance.

\ Monkey Story.

A delightful little incident, entirely
different from the story of the monkey
and the parrot, is told in the Irish
Times about a monkey and a dog,
thus: A brave, active intelligent ter
rler, belonging to a lady friend, one
day discovered a monkey belonging to
an itinerant Organ-grinder, seated upon
the bank within the grounds, and at
once made a dash for him. The mon
key, who was attired in jacket and
hat, awaited the onset with such I'M
disturbed tranquility that the dog
halted within a few feet Of him to re-
connOiter. Both animals took long,
steady stare at each other, but the
dog evidently was recovering from his
surprise, and about to make a spring
Tor the intruder. At this critical
luncture the monkey, who had re-
manned perfectly quiet hitherto, raised
his paw and gracefully saluted by lift
ing his hat. The effect was magical;
the dogs head and tail dropped, and
he sneaked off and entered the house,
refusing to leave it till he was salts
fed that his polite, but mysterious,
guest had departed His whole de-
meanor showed plainly that he felt
that the monkey was something ''un
canny,' and not to be meddled with

Reer without Foam,
He came

Munich Correspondence n. Y. Evening Post.l
The best beer brewed at Munich is
at the Hofbrauhaus, which Is one OF
the sights OF the city, doomed, how
ever, to be altered and modernized in
the near future. The fact that ex-
tremes meet Is illustrated by the Hot
brauhaus beer. When ordinary beer
has no foam, it is sign that it is
stale, flat and Improbable; but this
beer is brewed after a different recipe,
and has no foam naturally, it being
local maxim that good beer should
have none. Commonly tits drunk out
of stone mugs, which make it taste
better than if drank from glass, for
reasons which may possibly be traced
to the Imagination. In restaurants
and cafes beer may be had in half-litre
glasses or mugs; but II any one should
ask for half a litre at the Hofbrauhaus
he would probably be regarded with
as much astonishment as If he should
ask at irst-class American restau
rant for five cents worth OF terrapin
or canvas-back duck. For different
reason, however, since the beer at this
place Ia court institution is extremely
cheap. 1t is sold almost at cost price
six cents a litre (about a quartz
whereas at restaurants and cafes the
same quantity costs ten cents.
Nor are the other refreshments sold
at the Hofbrauhaus very dear; two
eggs, e. G., with salt and pepper, plate
and spoon, cost fourteen pfennlgs-
three and one-half cents, Indeed, low
prices are customary at all the Mu
mich restaurants. Those of the first
class are as good as in any European
city, while those OF the third and sec
ond-class are better than those in
Paris, and much better than in Lon
don or New York.
But | have not finished with the
Hofbrauhaus. Those who wish may
sit down and wait for the waiter-girl
to bring them g. mug OF the "Stotf, :"
but the orthodox fashion is to get
your own mug from a trough, rinse it
at the water-pipe, mark its number,
and, while it is being filled, pay for it.
When it comes back filled you carry it
triumphantly to a seat-if you can
find one, for the place is always
crowded with the most curious mix
ture OF persons of all ranks. Large
quantities are carried away in mugs
and glass pitchers; men and women
carrying beer in the street being one
of the most characteristic sights in
Munich.

From the Atchison Patriot
Our old-time friend, Solomon Musser,
OF Cameron, is probably the richest
man In Clinton, Mo, and has in all
ordinary transactions OF life extraor-
binary good common sense. In addi-
ton to this Mr.. Musser has an anna
BILE and accomplished young daughter
named Dollie, who took a notion that
she loved Mr.. Allard better than any
one else on earth and married him.
MIR: Musser is hot over the matter,
and threatens to disinhsrit the girl.
solomon Musser, if you were half as
wise as that other Solomon written OF
IN the good book, you would simply
invite your daughter and her husband
TO your house and make things as
pleasant as possible for them. You
cannot change in the least what has
occurred, but by mulish stubbornness
you may bring deep sorrow on your
own gray hairs and misery upon 9TH
ers. Yours is an old mans heart;
your child's is young, fresh and pure.
lt Is not Tor you to say that she has
committed an error in life.

Bustle is Not Business.


IRON the New \ Ork sun
1t cannot be denied that some men
seem to think that the obligations OF
the courtesy which they elsewhere re-
spect as well as they are able, need not
be regarded in their business inter
course. They imagine that it is bust
ness-lke to be in a great hurry, to
push and crowd, aud assert them
selves without reference to the
rights OF those about them. But
they are not the men who
are OF consequence in the business
world, as our correspondent will find
alter long experience in New York. If

FESPERS.
BY InHN NJ CAMERON.

In the twilight when the shadows tell us that the
day is dying,
When the zephyrs from the Westland IN the
leaves are softly signing,
When the sun all flushed and crimson Is retiring
to his rest,
And the evening stars pale twinkle shines in
silver in the west;
When the day is clothed with splendor with her
multi-colored light
In her last great purple splendOr ere she yields
her place TO night.
When the sparrows chirp their vespers ere they
close their eyes in rest,
And the robin from his wand rings is returning
to his nest,
Then love to sit in silence, watching the decline
of day,
Watching shadows softly creeping slowly on their
eastward way.
Then love to sit and ponder while the day is
gliding by
eager eye.
Then love to hear the music OF the perfume
laden breeze
AS it quivers Elong the leaflets, as it rustles in
the trees.
Lie Is full Of calm contentment when the sum
mer day is done,
In the shadows Of the twilight ere the night Is yet
begun
MONDAY passions are subdued and midnight
sorrOws all unknown,
When hear the evening vespers chanted forth
IN solemn tone.

W ashing.

Washing is so common a thing that
one might readily suppose every house
wife familiar with the mysteries of it..
And so they frequently are, so far, at
least, as enables them to make things
look clean, but how few can combine
this cleansing process with the preser-
walton OF the articleswhich are washed
Almost invariably the same system is
used in washing articles of every de-
scription. | have been told by gen.
tleman who has mad much experience
in hiring help for the laundry in hotels
that it is exceedingly difficult to get
good laundresses, even there, where
there is not so great avarlety OF wash
ing to be done as in private families.
In washing plain white clothes a few
generalrules viii suffice. First: Never
put your clothes to soak the night be-
fore wash day, unless you use warm
water and soap them well. 1t is not
necessary to soak them at all. For
washing, prepare tub of warm water
with little soda, which is not at all
injurious to the clothes if used in rea-
sonably small quantities. If there are
spots on any article, wet them first in
separately and put it into the warm
water, soaping well all parts that are
much soiled. When your tub is we'll
filled, push the clothes back and add
more hot water, but be careful not to
pour it on the clothes, or you will be
likely to scald the dirt into them.
Wash them twice before boiling, and
rinse thoroughly after The washer
women OF Belgium and Holland, so
prOverbially effective in their work,
use bOrax instead of soda; it saves
soap, softens the hardest water, and
does not in the least injure the texture
of the linen. Colored muslins or lawns
must be washed one by one in cold
water If they are very dirty, the
water may be lukewarm, but no more.
But, above all, be careful not to use
the smallest particle of soda. The
best soap for articles of this material
is the common yellow. A small piece
of alum should be boiled in the water
in which the lather is made. The soap
should not be allowed to remain any
time in the linen, but the articles
washed should be rinsed Immediately
after washing, and hung out to dry.
Leave all articles beside the tub,
washing each separately. They must
be ironed as soon as they are dry, and
not allowed to remain damp over
night nor be sprinkled. Do not iron
with hot irons. Pink and green tints
may withstand the washing, but will
be likely to change color as soon as a
hot iron is put upon them.-The
Cook.

these years ?'' she asked with some
thing like dry sob, staggering a step
or two forward.
1t was the meeting of two who had
been lovers in youth. Parted by a
trifing quarrel, one as insignificant ION
Miss Mandy's part, alone, this time),
had brought them together at last.
The years had changed both. They
could not get used to it at once, but
stood studying each other closely,
tenderly, perhaps.
When Miss Mandy could command
herself to speak again she said:
"The preacher needn't never tell me
any more that there amt no virtue in
fussin' | know better. Ii it hadn't
been for this fuss, we'd never knowed
each other, for I'd made up my mind
never to even look at you. But come
| over, Hardness, and We'll make it all
up"
He came.
