glasses per day"
This answer was in reply to question
as to how much beer the employees in the
Milwaukee brewerics consumed. The
speaker was a gentleman engaged in
the office of an extensive brewing COM
pany.
"What is the average consumption per
man".
"About one and one-f fourth gallons, or
forty glasses daily. AS rule, our en-
ployes drink fifty c-quartcr barrels a
day-nearly 500 worth. During warm
days this number is increased to sixty
quarters and more. Each man generally
takes two glasses at one time, which
would make the number of visits to the
bar about twenty during the day. AL
lowing three minutes only for each time
he knocks off wolk, there is one holr
which he loses in this way. Some of
the men have to Ys,yS1alf block and
further, and it 6iren takes about five
minutes. ="

Fortunes in Books.

"There is great deal of money made
in books" said printer, "and great
deal lost l could name for you half
dozen persons in Chicago who have made
from $50, 900 to 5000, 600 in a few years
publishing or handling books for the sub
scription trade. If book catches on
and the agents who first try it are able to
make good earnings, the thing goes like
widire. Agents by the hundred then
take hold of it, and the sales in a few
months reach an enormous aggregate.
Books which cost but forty or fifty cents
to manufacture in quantities are sold at
$3.50 TO 81 to subscribers, about one-half
of this going to the agent. The sub
scription book business has one great ad-
vantage over the trade business. In the
latter the first edition must be published
as a venture. Frequently the best of
judgments on the stability of book will
be at fault, and in case of no sale there
is an enormous loss.- The subscription
publisher prints no more books than are
needed, and need never 60 further than
the manufacturer of a few prospectuses
if the work should fall fiat on his hands.
Authors of regular trade subscription
books are not, as rule, we'll paid. Many
of the most successful works are mere
compilations or hodge -podges, hastily
put together under an attractive title and
with coed printing and binding. - Chi.

Influence of Grass.

~ In describing a case of disease in an
yanimal, lady correspondent says that
her husband thinks it will be all right
rs soon as grass comes. This has sug-
geSted to us that few words upon the
subject might be of great benefit. 1t is
probable that nine out Of ten cases Of
sickness will 'come out all right" as soon
as the animals can be got upon grass.
Our animals have been fed all winter, in
thousands Of cases, upon dry, concen-
trated food, and in one way or another
they are now showing the effects of it.
The owner feels that he must do some
thing, and often it is necessary to give
medicine at once. But as soon as grass
comes stop the medicines, in ordinary
cases at least, and turn them into the
pasture. At first the grass will lack
nutritious qualities, and it may some
times be necessary to feed even q sick
animal something in addition. Animals
that are not diseased ought to have
comething besides the very young grass.
But sick animal will often be greatly
. benefited by stlnting it in diet, and in
such cases it may need nothing more
than what the imperfect young grass will
give. If We had an animal that was out
of condition, or in any disease short of
being or verging upon desperate case,
we should turn IL upon grass as soon as
grass comes, and give that trial before
resorting to medical treatment - Western

The Baby's Palace Car.

Ishould like to suggest plan I have
tried for protecting babies from draughts
while on the floor, consisting of box
two feet by three feet, and just high
enough to allow baby to look over the
top as he sits on the bottom of the box.
Fasten strong cleats to each end, and into
these put good casters. Pad the side and
cover with pretty calico. Put several
layers of newspapers on the bottom, and
cover with carpet. In such warm box
my little girl spent most of the winter.
Her playthings were within reach. In it
she learned to creep and to stand, the
sides being so soft bump did not hurt
her. Her little brothers amused her by
rolling it about the floor. 1t did not
take up as much room as baby and her
scattered playthings. 1t deserves the
name the children bestowed upon it

Farm and Garden Notes.

Don't trim a young tree after the leaves

stunted growth.
The root of a tree that is to be trans

Colonel EllswOrth's Death.

Colonel Ephraim Elmer Ellsworth
Commandant of the regiment of New
York Fire Zouaves, was the first officer
in the Northern Army to shed his life's
blood in the civil war. The dramatic de-
tails of this young officers death are
part of history and are we'll known to the
middle-aged and elder citizens, but to the
rising generations the facts will be new
and interesting. On the morning of May
81, 1861, Colonel Ellsworth took his regi-
ment to Alexandria, Va, to prevent an
insurrection which seemed imminent, the
regiment entering the city under flag Of
truce. Then Colonel Ellsworth, accom-
panied by squad of five men, the chap
lain of his regiment and two newspaper
reporters started uptown to visit the telc-
graph Office. AS they turned from King
street into Royal street Colonel Ellsworth
observed Confederate flag floating from
the top of the Marshall House, q hotel
kept by man named Jackson. Feeling
that the sight of the flag would affect his
regiment to such degree that the eff
cheney and subordination would be ruined,
Colonel Ellsworth and his escort entered
the hotel, and the Colonel asked for the
landlord. He was grutlly informed that
he was not in, at which Colonel Els
worth went upstairs, took down the flag
and started to return to the bar-room. AS
they were coming down the stairs, Ser
geant Frank E. Brownell, who was at
the head. of the squad, saw a man at the
bottom of the stairs with gun in his
hand. Sergeant Brownell sprang at the
fellow, and with his own gun knocked
down the gun held by the other man.
Before he could recover his heavy old
Harpers Ferry musket to continue the
defense, the other man, VINO had q light
double-barrel shotgun, raised it and
fired, sending the charge into Colonel
ElIsworth's body directly above the
heart. Ellsworth exclaimed: "My God!"
and fell dead to the floor. The assassin,
who was Jackson, the hotel proprietor,
raised his gun a second time, but as he
did so Sergeant Brownell shot him dead
where he stood. Detroit Free Press.

Novel Ophthalmic Operation.

A successful and delicate operation on
the eye was performed at the County
Hospital recently that will command the
attention of men of science, as we'll rs
the medical fraternity of the world. Not
long ago q fireman was brought to the
institution to receive treatment for on
eye which had been wounded by a
splinter. The little piece of wood had
entered the corner of the right eye and
tore out the inner canthus, so that the
patient always bore the appearance Of
looking at his nose with the injured eye.
The disease was called internal strabis-
mus DR.. Smith, of the hospital staff,
cut the contraction and dissected it out,
leaving the space of the mucus membrane
of the eye, about the size of q nicklc,
bare. He then took piece of the mu
Gus membrane from the eye Of rabbit
md placed it where the dissection had
occurred. The wound healed, and the
membrane from the eye of the rabbit
grew to muscle where it was placed. The
man now has full control of his eye and
perfect sight. Chicago Herald.

Experiment With Rose Cutting.

The London Garden gives the follow
ing distinct and Ineligible account of
an experiment in raising roses from cut
tings: We have just had another proof
of the easy way in which own-root roses
may be ATTAINED. In October, last year,
having an odd glass light to spare, de-
termlned to use it for protecting some
rose cuttings. With a few old boards
we put together temporary frame, on
which the light was put; then, having
selected warm corner for the frame,
--tse old soil on which it was placed was
taken out slA-incnes ueep.- We then run
some ordinary garden soil through
coarse sieve, and mixed with it one-third
road sand. This mixture took the place
. of the soil removed The next business
was to get the cuttings-not difficult
matter, for we had only to 90 over the
rose-beds, and to take off the tops of the
longest shoots in order to get all we
wanted. We were careful to get them
long enough. so as to be able to reject the
tops of such as were too soft it being
necessary TO have the wood moderately
iirm. After the soft tops had been taken
on, the cuttings, which were cut at a
JOINT at the base, varied in length from
six inches to ten inches. Some of them
had as many as three or four leaves left
upon them, and others less number.
The soil in the frame was then troddcn
! firmly and the cuttings inserted, frmine
the soil afterwards around them with
wooden rammer. Every cutting
. TODD clear distance of four
inches from its neighbor, and when the
rame was filled the soil was gently
'atered and the light put on. This con-
ltuted about all the labor devoted to
lem, for the winter being mild they were
manner forgotten; had there been
we're frost we should most likely have
Rvercd the light with an old mat or
bg litter; but being all of the Hybrid
rPetual class they did not require
tdling. They, therefore, had no at
tion bestowed on them until the
ing, when all the dead leaves were
Ied out and the soil made firm where
- ms had looSened it; at the same time
good soaking of water was given the
soil, and the light was put on again for
another period of time-rather a long
one, for at the end of May the light was
still on, and those which had rooted
were pressing against the glass, circum-
stance which necessitatcd its being re-
moved at one. They had another soak
ing OF water and were then left to them
selves all summer, except when cutting
flowers we sometime found time to visit
them for the sake of the buds which they
furnished to help ill our basket Many
of them, l should say, commenced to
produce flowers in July, and continued
to do so until taken up q few days ago.
when we found more than fifty plants in
four feet square. They were all
abundantly rooted, and some of them
were three feet high. Seeing how
trifiny the labor was to secure this num-
Der of plants it must be admitted that
the result was highly satisfactory.
