WHAT TRIPE IS.

WHAT TRlPE Is.
Occasionally you see man order tripe,
but he always looks hard, as though he ha-
ted himself and everybody else. He tries
to look as though he enjoyed it, but he does
not. Tripe is indigestible, and looks like
an India rubber apron. When it is picked
it looks like dirty clothes put to soak, and
when it is cooking it looks as though the
cook was boiling dish cloth. On the table
it looks like glue and tastes like a piece of
oil silk umbrella cover. A stomach that is
not lined with corrugated iron would be
turned wrong side out by the smell
of tripe. A man eating tripe at ho-
tel table looks like an Arctic explorer
dining on his boots or chewing pieces
of frozen dog You cannot look at man
eating tripe but he will blush, and look as
though he wanted to apologize and con-
vince you he is taking it to tone up his sys-
tem A woman never eats tripe. There is

How TO MEsMERIZE.-A recent writer
on the mysteries Of mesmerism, says: | lay
it down as a fact that the mesmeric condi-
tions can be produced without the supposi.
tion of subtle fluid, without the use of the
cabalistic passes Of the mesmerist, without
the bouquet, the magnetic rod, or any of the
mysterious means employed by the profess
sionals to heighten the effect of what would
be too simple and too unattracGve if per-
formed traightfcrwardIy. The directions
are these: Place the person to be operated
on naturally in chair. With your left
hand suspend by string, about q foot
from the eyes, some small object, dark
marble or bright steel ball or diamond
it matters not what though something
bright is, perhaps, preferable. Direct the
subject to fasten his eyes and encounter his
attention on the object. Slowly raise your
left hand until the object is as far above the
eyes of the patient as is compatible with his
gazing steadily at it. Watch his eyes. At
first you will see the pupils contract, but
after few seconds they will expand
rapidly When they are at the point OF
greatest expansion move the hrst two
fingers of your right hand from the OBJ

being separated forklike to embrace both
eyes. AS the fingers approach, the eyes
will close, and the subject will be unable to
open them. After quarter of minute
the subject will be throughly under control,
so that the operator may make him believe
whatever he tells him. Left quiet, the sub.
ject will sink into profound torpor, during
which his ears nose, and even finger may
be cut off without pain. To arouse him-and
this is an important step-wind, either from
baud bellows or a fan, should be directed
against his eyes, or else his eyes should be
tickled with feather. The rationale of
of the method is simple. The fixed stare OF
the subject fatigues his retinal nerves, and
when the operators fingers approach, the
eyelids close, as eyelids always do when the
eyes are threatened But the fatigue OF the
nerve has produced muscular fatigue as well,
transient paralysis Of the eyelids has result.
ed, and they can not be opened. The eye.
lids being then closed, the delicate frontal
perves exhausted and the mind made va
cant by monotonous attention to one sub
ject, the patient is in a condition to fall
asleep, and he does fall asleep.

Quality in Eggs Quite az Important rs
Quantity.
We are accustomed to counting our
eggs from the hens, yet the hen that
avs the largest number of eggs may
,ot be the most productive. 1t is as
unreasonable to estimate the value OF a
,en by the number of her eggs as it is

who compare pippin with crab APP

quantity and quality. Two ounces is
perhaps the average weight of eggs.
but if any one will examine basket of
eggs it will be noticed that the eggs
are of all shapes, sizes and colors. So
far as marketing the eggs is concerned
the small eggs seem to sell nearly as
well as the larger ones, especially if
they are mixed with those of large size,
but what we wish to call attention to
Is the fact that it costs more, in the
shape of food. to produce a large egg
than it does for a small one. The hen
that lays one hundred eggs weighing
two ounces each. is not as valuable, so
TAR as actual production is considered.
as the hen laying seventy-five eggs
weighing three ounces each. yet but
few give this single thought, and
sacrifice the better hen under the mis-
taken supposition that she is not as
productive as the one thatlays larger
number. While this may not amount
to any thing when eggs are sent to
market, yet it is very Important con-
sideration where the eggs are used at
home. The housekeeper who makes
two eggs do the service of three readily
perceives the difference, and it is a
strong point in selling eggs by weight
instead of by the dozen. which latter
is an unfair mode of buying and selling.
