Danger of Eating Raw Ham.

A few months ago woman died in
Berlin of trichinosis. The case has just
been brought before the courts, and
during the trial some interesting facts
regarding the nature and effects of this
disease were brought to light. As usual,
the disease was caused by the reckless
German custom of eating raw ham. The
ham in this case was bought of man
who had previously sold several pigs
afflicted with this disease, his farm be-
ing situated near place infested with
rats, which are known to be generally
infected with trichinosis. Not only the
woman who died but all the members of
her family showed symptoms of the dis
vomiting, pain in the muscles,
general exhaustion. swelling of the face,
ETC.; but they all recovered under care
full treatment, while some other persons
who partook of The ham escaped
altogether. The defendant urged that
the woman's death was not caused by
trichinosis, but by the morphine which
she was in the habit of using; and
though it was proved that her death
was directly caused by trichinosis, vet
this fact was allowed as mitigating
circumstance and the vender of the ham
condemned TO only fourteen days i'm

The Scientific american gives the

for bleed ne at the nose, as gwen by
DR.. Gleason in one of his lectures. is
the vigorous motion of the jaws as if u
the act of chewing. In the case of a
oh Id wad of paper should be placed
in its mouth. and the child should be
instructed to chew it hard. 1t is the
motion of the jaws that stops the
flow of blood. This remedy is so very
simple that many will feel inclined to
laugh at it, but it has never been known
to fail in single instance, even in
| very severe cases.

WASH DRESSES.

Belted waists are in great favor for
summer dresses, and are especially pop
ular for wash dresses of cambria, ging-
ham, satteen, Chambery, batiste, and
the most inexpensive prints, There
are several ways of making these
waists, but those most easily ironed are
plain on the shoulders, and merely
gathered to a belt in the middle of the
front and back. The fronts are but
toned up close to the throat with small
pearl buttons, round as a pea, but with
eyes sunk in for sewing them on. The
back is made all in one piece, and stayed
by facing of linen beginning on the
shoulders, following the outline of the
armhole, and being seWed in with the
belt. Others prefer to keep the waist
separate from the skirt, hence they ex-
tend the whole bodice a finger deep be-
low the waist line, for this part to pass
