The true northerner. [volume] (Paw Paw, Mich.) 1855-1920, 1886-02-18
How Beauty Is Preserved.

It is stated that q well known So
ciety woman of Baltimore, who pre-
serves her beauty and freshness re-
markably well, despite her many sea-
sons pursuit of excitement in the So
cial whirl, attributes her good fortune
to the practice of drinking small cup
of lukewarm water every day on leav-
ing her couch. So strong is her faith
in the efficacy OF this remedy that its
omission is sure to cause depression
and languor.
In speaking of this, a well-known
matron. Of Baltimore said: Il have
known many ladies to be equally de-
voted to some articles which could not
possibly have benefited them except
through their imagination. One lady
/ know has a glass of toast water
placed beside her bed by her maid ev-
cry morning. Another uses a half
teaspoonful Of tincture of cinchona in a
goblet of water; still another takes a
pinch of table salt into her mouth be-
fore leaving her bed. Lots of ladies
resort to such common articles as or
arges and lemons. and apollinaris
water, or to cool plunge baths. but the
most singular freak ever heard of
w1sthat of q Philadelphia belle who
every morning regularly gargled her
throat with soapsuds made of white
CASTLE soap, which she believed was
absolutely necessary to the preserva-
ton of her health. "-Bdltimore News.

a correspondent Ct Brewersville, Ia
beria, writing to the Gate City, (Mo,)
Prcss, says: This place, Brewersville,
il hfteen miles from Monrovia. It Is
fifteen years old. It is the largest set
Element in Liberia outside of Monrovia.
All the people who have emigrated out
here in tho last ten OF fifteen years
have settled In this place. The people
in the settlement are poor, and one
isn't able to help the other in q bust
ness sense of view. There are no
horses, no mules, and no oxen in the
whole settlement. They have to do all
the farm work with the hoe, the rake,
and the ak. / have been out here now
six months. People are in suffering
condition for something to eat and
clothes to wear. There isn't any doctor
in this settlement; the settlement is too
poor to support one. The inhabitants
number 556. Calico is % cents per
yard. A common laborer, when he can
get work to do, receives 20 cents per
day. Picked pork is 20 cents per
pound, shoulder meat 20 cents per
pound. All the -four and meat used
here is imported from England and
America. Corn meal is 10 cents per
quart. Common -four is SIS per barrel.
This is the greatest place for sores i
ever saw. There is here an insect; its
name is jiger; it is very dangerous. L
have seen grown people, and children,
toe, with their toes eaten off. Shoes are
more needed here than in America. 1t
is necessary to wear shoes all the time
so as to protect your feet from these
insects. sIhe people are unable to keep
shoes on their children all the time,
and good many of them have to wear
sore feet oil the year round. My boys
feet have been SO sore he could hardly
walk.
The only way the settlers have to
make any money here is by raising and
selling coffee. twill take newcomer
like myself from five to six years to get
a coffee farm in trim for selling coffee.
The public schools are in a poor con-
dition. There is class of people here
who do not want the true condition of
things written back home They say
If the people want to know how times
are over here, let them come and see
for themselves.

In speaking of homo opathic per-
fumes" an exchange Says the odorifer-
Gus molecules of musk must be incom-
prehensibly small. We cannot mag
ine their smallness. as it is said that
the same grain of musk undergoes alb
soluteiy no diminution in weight. A
single drop of the oil of thyme, ground
down.with piece of sugar and little
alcohol, will communicate its odor to
twenty-five gallons of water. Halter
kept for forty years papers perfumed
with one grain of ambergris After
this time the odor was as strong as
ever. Bordenave has evaluated MOLE
cule camphor sensible to the smell to

observed that one dram of asafGtida
exposed to the open air had lost in six
days the eighth part Of one grain, from
which Keill concludes that in one min
ute it had lost one 90, l20th of grain.

A case of interest to hotel men and
commercial travellers was recently de-
cided by st. Louis Judge. 1t was as
follows: "Black, commercial trav-
eler, put up ct the Everett House. He
carried with him samples usually car
ried by drummers. When he fell be-
hind in his board bill the proprietor
took possession of the goods under a
hotel keepers lien. Black brought ac-
ton to replevy, claiming that he was
not the owner of them. The court de-
cides that in absence Of notice to the
effect that the goods were not the
PLAINTIFF IS, the fact that he Black had
the rightful possession thereof when
he came to the hotel. and that the fact
of such possession placed the owner
ship ostensibly in the plaintiff, upon
which he could obtain credit to their
apparent value, must give the hotel
keeper lien from which to satisfy any
indebtedness that may arise"

Only Half Alive.

There are hosts of men and women who, TO
coin phrase are only half alive. That is to say,
they have seldom, if ever, any appetite, are ner-
vous, weak, idgety and troubled by numberless
small pains and aches. In the presence OF vigor-
GUS, exuberant vitality they seem mere pygmies.
Such persons are usually fond of frequently
dosing themselves, swallowing in the course Of
the year enough drugs To stock an apothecarys
shop Of average dimensions. This of course de-
feats instead OF furthering the end in view, viz,
the recovery of health and vigor. Were they to
Hostetters Stomach Bitters, how different would
be their case. Then vigor would return to their
debiltated frames, the glow of health to their
wan checks, their trembling, uncertain gait
would grow firm and elastic, appetite, that
grandest of all sauces. would give a relish for
the daily food, were it never so coarse, md re-
freshing sleep would crown the tasks OF the
div.

THE twelfth number of the German
Colonialzeitu1g contains an article by
Herman Soyaux on experimental culti-
walton in tropical Africa. He main
tains that the soil is suitable for agri-
culture, though it is exhausted in a year
by the cultivation of maize and manise !;
he recommends the cultivation of cof-
fee, vanilla, India rubber, tobacco, cot
ton and sugar-cane, according to the
varieties of soil. Lieut.. de Gle, COM
mander of the Upper Congo division,
has published most enthusiastic de-
scription of the country, where nearly
all the above, mentioned plants, and
many others, grow naturally, or are al
ready cultivated. He represents the
climate as healthy, and the country
thickly populated.

There are a multitude of sufferers
from the noise of their neighborhood
who endure what amounts to agony,
exciting their nerves TO abnormal action
and their pulse to fever heat, when it
would do no injury to use simple
means of obviating the whole thing.
The clangor of machinery, the ringing
of bells, the cries and laughter, the
yells and roars of one hundred or less
children at recess or at ball playing,
the passing of heavy drays-all or any
of these, and other things, are some
times fatal to tie health of the invalid
and to the work of the thinker Often
1t is utterly impossible to move into a
region where no heavy drays pass, no
bell ringing is allowed; and then there
is hardly region to be found not in
vaded by the whistle of the steam en-
CINE, or where boys do lot shout at
their games; and even where there are
no cocks to crow, or dogs to bark, or
birds to sing at unseemly hours before
dawn, there is always some other sound
to torture the sensitive ear
If, now, the sufferer will take bit of
spermaceti ointment of about the size
of q pea, tie it up in small square of
fine linen and place it deep in the ear,
working it round till it takes the shape
of the orifice, leaving the eud to hang
out, not murmur of sound can be
heard; the atmosphere is sweet and
serene, the nerves are quite at rest, all
transportation is subdued, and when the
noise is over, or the necessary season
of quiet has been had, the little plug
can be removed, the murmur of the
world allowed to return, and no harm
is done.-The Argondut.
