When compound Oxygen is inhaled. the
heart has impaired to it increased vitality That
organ sends forth the blood with more force and
less wear to itself; the vital currents leave on
their circuits new deposits of vital force in every
cell Oh tissue over which they pass, and return
again to the lungs for anew supply. This is ra-
tonal explanation of the greatest advance medical
science has yet made.

A medical authority says, that at about
the age of thirty-six the lean man usually
becomes fatter, and the fat man becomes
eaner. Again. between the yeaas of
iorty-three and fifty his appetite fall,
ais complexion fades, and his tongue is
apt to become furred upon the least exer-
ion of body or mind. At this period
MS muscles become fabby, his joints
weak, his spirits droop and his sleep is
imperfect and unrefreshing. After suf-
fering under these complaints year, or
perhaps two, he starts afresh with re-
newed vigor, and goes on to sixty-one
Or sixty two, when similar change
takes place, but with aggravated symp-
.oms. When these grand periods have
been successfully passed, the gravity of
incumbent years is NOR strongly marked.

Churches as HOSPITALS.

After the battles of June, 1862, large
number of Washington churches were
taken for hospitals. A flooring was built
over the pews, and small rooms were
partitioned off for the surgeons and
nurses. Large temporary structures were
also erected, one story in height, but ad-
mirably planned and ventilated. There
were at one time over 10000 wounded
men who had been brought from the
Virginia battlefields and swamps and
placed in these improvised hospitals,
where they had comfortable beds, good
fare, careful attention, and the best sur
gical and medical advice. The hospital
''diet" embraced the best coffee and tea,
bread and butter, soups and meats, Gle,
porter and brandy, with farina, arrow
root, and other delicacies. Ben. Perley

The Care Of Babies.

The following directions for the caro-
babies in summer, issued by the New
York Board of Health, are applicable to
any locality:
NURSING OF INFANTS. s.-Over-feedjn docs
more harm than anything else; nurse an in
FAINT month or two old every two or threa
hours.
Nurse an infant Of six months and over five
times in twenty four hours, and no more
If an infant is thirsty give it pure water,
or barley water; no sugar.
FEEDING OF INFANTS. Boil teaspoonful
Of powdered barley ground in coffee
grinder and one-half pint OF water, WIZ a
little salt, for hfteeu ninutss. strain, ,sen
mix it with half as much boiled milk; add q
ump Of white sugar, size Of a walnut, and
give it luke-warm from a nursing be tie.
Keep bottle and mouth piece in bowl Of
W ter when not in use. to which little soda
nay be added.
For infants five or six months Old, give
ealf barley water aud BALI boiled milk, with
lalt and lump OF sugar.
For older infants, give more milk than bar
ey water.
For infants very costive, give oatmeal in
tead Of barley. Cook and strain as before
When your breast mill. is only half enough,
change off between breast milk and this prs-
pared food.
In hot weather if blue litmus paper applied
TO the food turns red, the food is too acid.
and you must make q fresh mess or add a
Imall pinch Of baking soda
Infants Of six months may have beef teAor
beef soup once day, by itself or mixed
with other food; and when ten or twelve
months old, a crust Of bread and piece Of
rare beef TO suck.
No child under two years old ought to eat
at your table
Give no candies, in fact, nothing that Is
not contained in these rules, without "a doc
tors orders.
SUMNER COMPLAINT. 1t comes from over
feeding and hot and foul air. Keep doors
and windows open.
Wash your well children with cool water
twice day, or oftener in the hot season.
Never neglect loosoness in the bowls in an
infant; consult the family or dispensary
physician at once and he will give you rulos
about what It should take and how II shoulsa
be nursed. Keep your rooms as cool as pos
sible, have them well ventilated, and do not
allow any bad smell 10 come from sinks,
gartage-boxes or cutters about the houn'
where You live. Where an infant Is cross
aud irritable iu the hot weather., trip CT
the water will do it great deal Of good, and
may prevent cholera infantum.

Talk with a Snake charmer.

sAin't she beauty" asked Prof.
D'Angelo, the snake charmer, as he in
troduced the Tribune reporter to huge,
writhing python. If snakes are ever
beautiful this one certainly was, and what
was more it seemed really to express an
affection for the Professor, as it twined
itself around his body and neck and laid
its small, shining head, with diamond
like eyes, close beside his cheek and often
extended its small forked tongue over the
Professors face caressingly.
"What is such snake worth2" asked
the reporter, at safe distance.
''This one l would not sell for $500.
She is such beauty and am fond Of
her. Good snakes can be purchased fol
about $50, and they go all the way up to
$500.
'What causes such a fiuctnation in
value2'
when snake is small and green or
uneducated, it's not worth much. 1t takes
some time to educate them, and this pro-
cess is attended with much danger. An
educated snake that you can put on foI
an act is worth $500 of any mans money.
Then, of course, size has great deal to
do with it. A big snake is paying card,
if not trained. Then the way a snake is
marked, or ringed, as we say, is liable to
make a big difference in price, and the
deadlier the snake the more valuable it
is"
"Where do you get your snakesw
"Of the regular agencies in New York.
Berlin and other places where snakes are
kept on sale."
How are they captured?"
'Most of the large snakes are decoyed
into pits and then baggcd. Rattlesnakes
are dccoyed out of their holes by means
of string of rattles attached to stick.
They hear the rattles and come out Of
their holes. A forked stick is put over
their head and then they are easily
picked up"
elbow do you commence to educat,
snakesf'
'Those which have a poisonous bite.
and mosi of them have that, must have
their fang removed, then they become
harmless. The snakes of the boa con.
strictor species are gorged with food be-
with proper assistance can soon subdue
them"
"It takes great deal of nerve, does it
not2"
"Well, some, to pick up strange
snake. The secret of snake-training il
to get the reptiles acquainted and accus-
toned to you This is no easy matter,
but it has to be done. After they Learn
to like you they are the most afTectionat'
things in the world. ."-Detroit Tribune.

Bathers' cramp is made the subject of
an article in the Popular Science Neus.
The conclusion is reached that although
the intimate nature of muscular cramps
and the precise mode in which they are
established are still unknown, sufficient
data on the subject enables US to recog-
nize the chief conditions of their causa-
ton, which are as follows: A peculiar
individual susceptibility; the shock of
cold applied to the general surface of the
body; prolonged muscular exertion, and
forcible and sudden muscular exertion,
especially in the direction of the extrem-
tiles. The disorder is very apt to rise in
persons of irritable temperament, attacks
persons of middle age oftener than the
young, men oftener than women and the
robust oftener than the weakly, and
occurs oftener in hot climates than in
cold. It's most powerful and avoidabls
cause is the immersion OF the body Will.
heated in water of relatively low tenn
perature.

King Otto of Bavaria, successor to the
late King Ludwig. resides, or is kept
rather, in the Chateau Of Fustenried,
about one hours ride from Munich. The
castle is wholly isolated and situated in
the heart Of the forest. 1t was convent
in the thirteenth century, and was pur-
chased by King Louis I. The garden
and park are traversed by grand ave
nue. shaded by elms and surrounded by
a high wall. The guards and servants
are stationed in little houses. Patrols
of honor arc posted at the entrance to
the castle since Otto's elevation to the
throne. The King has lucid moments,
and then he deyotes himself mainly to
reading the newspapers. But these
moments are of brief duration. He
smokes cigarettes incessantly, and often
takes a promenade. The mad monarch
sometimes takes a notion to visit the
imperial flmily OF Austria. to which, in
his sane moments, he appears very de-
voted. lie spends whole hours in pick
irg berries and making them into little
pyramids in the park. An alienist
physician in black coat and white cravat
always walks a certain distance behind
him, and he is followed in turn by three
gendarmes.
