Hints on summer DIET.
Tile Cook.l

Milk is very important summer diet,
but should be used in moderation or it is
liable to produce i'll effects. Drink it in
small mOuthfuls and rest moment be-
tween them. Dyspeptic persons are ad
vised to beat the milk few moments be
fore drinking. That treatment breaks the
butter globules and renders digestion
easier
We strongly recommend skinned milk
and fresh buttermilk as summer drinks in
stead of ice water. The ice water dys-
pepsia, a common malady during the
summer months may be entirely relieved
by using small quantities of freshly
churned buttermilk, accompanied by what
is known as a moderately dry diet.
Breakfast should not be a heavy meal
and hot food should be used in modera
ton. Hot tea and coffee literally par
taken often prevents one from feeling
comfortable all day. Radishes ice cold
oatmeal crackers and milk, dainty slice
of cold lamb, fresh fruit and cold as
paragus. present breakfast that makes
hot weather q luxury.

Sir Ashley Cooper as = Horse Doctor.
IScianti ic Amaricanl

In the life of Sir Ashley Cooper it is
said that he required his coachman to at
tend every market morning at Smithheld,
and pur chase all lame young horses ex
posed for sale which he thought might
possibly be convertible into carriage or
saddle horses. should they recover from
their defects. He was never to give more
than pounds sterling for each, but
pounds sterling was the average price
In this manner thirty or forty horses
were sometimes collected at Gaelisbridge,
his farm. On stated morning every
week the blacksmith came up from the
village, and the horses were in successive
order caught, battered, and brought to
him for inspection.
Having discovered the cause of their
lameness, he proceeded to perform what
ever seemed to him necessary for the cure
The Improvement produced in short
time by good feeding and medical attend

have enjoyed, appeared truly wonderful

quently produce such an alteration in
some of them that it required no unskill
full eye in the former owner himself to
recognize the animal which he had sold but
few weeks before f1fty gu1neas were
paid for one of these animals, which
turned out very good bargain, and Sir
AstNey's carriage was for years drawn by
a pair of horses which together cost him
only ID pounds 10 shillings sterling.
We believe similar business to that OF
Sir Ashley ooper is carried on by class
of horse dealers in New York and other
large cities. Lame and otherwise worth

Fira hose for the World.
New York Mail and Express.


ut may seem odd to the public, but fire
hose made in this city is in use in nearly
every foreign country, including China,
India and the Sandwich islands, said
downtown dealer to reporter. The
largest single contract that we have had
for fire hose was for 10000 feet, and the
lon gest single stretch of it through which
have known engines to play was 5000
feet, or three quarters of mile. This was
at the works of large fire engine manu-
featuring company in this state, and
was done in testing their engines. Ten
years ago cotton fire hose was unknown in
this country; now we sell that exclusively.
It was in 1874, believe, that loom was
invented for the manufacture of seamless
cotton fire hose Its value lies in the fact
that It outwears either rubber or leather,
its average life being ten years in any
well-regulated fire department. Only this
morning we received q letter from Portu-
gal asking for samples It is estimated
that over 1900, 600 feet Of cotton fire hose
are now in use It weighs about sixty
pounds per length of fifty feet, with

engaged in painting picture of a noble
family when news was brought of the
death Of his pet ape. Sobbing and cry

the form Of the ape upon the family

him and protested that an ape
was quite out of place in the company of
such distinguished personages. The fam
lily were most indignant. and ordered
him to efface the traces of the animal.
Eut he continued to weep, and went on
painting the ape The head of the family
demanded to know whether it was his
portrait or that of monkey which Rem
brandt was pretending to delineate ut
is the portrait of a monkey, said Rem
brandt Then you may keep the pic

HOrv HUG Made His AIonsy.
[Chicago Tribune.I


A Paris Journal after stating that Vic
tor Hugo's personal property amounted to
9, 900, 900 francs, goes on to explain in
what way he succeeded in amassing such
a large sum- The conditions he made
with managers of theatres and with pub.
fishers were of such @ nature that, not
withstanding the great success of his
works. the managers and publishers gen
orally lost money. For his novel
"L'Homme Qui Rit" he demanded 400, :
900 francs, and when the sum had been
paid he sold it again to a newspaper,
which printed it first and thereby raised
its circulation to 120, 900 copies, while the
publishers became bankrupt For each
of his dramas produced in Paris the man
ager was obliged to guarantee Hugo 60
to 30 per cent. of the net proceeds Be-
sides this, he demanded the whole amount
taken in at every tenth performance, and
at every performance 200 of the best
places, which he sold for his own benefit.

The ATLANTIC of the Ancients.
TScieotific Exchan0a

Scientists now generally agree that the
q Atlantis" of the ancients was an island
of continental dimensions between the
West Indies and the west coast of Africa,
now buried beneath the waters of the Pa
cifc ocean. Gigantic sculptured figures
are still to be seen upon Easter island,
evidently the work of a different race
than that which now inhabits the island,
and one much more numerous, since the
works referred to are on too large a scale
to have been constructed except by many
hands. The hieroglyphic tablets of wood
discovered upon Easter island are the
only instance of a written language in
d, eanica. The governments of France,
Germany and the United States are now
investigating and exploring this island.
