100 Doses One Dollar

IL is estimated that there are about
$4,000 blind persons IN France. and
very little has thus far been done to i'm
prove their condition. About 200 re-
ceiye professional education in the Ma
tlonal Institution for Blind Youths, as
many more are taught i'll small chart
table establishments, and a national in
stitution maintains about 300 pension
ers; but at least 1000 unfortunates are
without resourc or prospect of i'm
provement. The cruelty of this neglect
has been strIkingly illustrated by the
experience of a society formed in 1881
to erect workshops for the blind. A
little money was collected and the So
ciety erected one small workshop in
which twenty-five persons were instruc-
ted during the last year, every one OF
whom, it is believed, acquired in SIX
months the means OF earning a sup
port for the rest of his life by making
brooms, brushes, baskets, tool handles,
chairs, etc.

Or. Il. Von Fr1tSch, of Halle, MAIN
tlins that the cause OF earthquakes are
much slighter than has been generally
believed; that they may be sought at a
depth of not more than ten or fourteen
miles, and often OF less; and that rather
feeble forces may produce earthquakes
which will be felt at great distances.
The hammer in Krupp's factory, which
weighs a thousand centners, and falls
from a height of ten feet, produces sem
slD!e conclusions over a surface five
miles in diameter; and a recent explo-
sion in a dynamite factory was felt at
between twenty-five and thirty miles
away. DR.. Fritsch points out how
earthquakes might and must be pro-
duced by the increase and decrease in
volume of rocks under the influence of
physical and chemical forces, by con-
c%usslons, by the opening of crevices in
rocks, and by the subsidents Of masses
of rocks due to these agencies.

THERE is a fire chance for the exer.
else of taste in the hangings for win
dows. Handsome materials IN pattern
and texture are at prices to suit all
classes. Get your curtains of some
material. no matter how cheap, which
hangs in agreeable folds. Cheap stufs,
made of linen, and goods of cotton
handsomely dyed can be purchased.
In richer goods some prefer solid colors,
and others Moorish or Persian patterns.
A new Japanese stuff for curtains is
ulaided In various colOrs on a ground
in which there is so much gilt that at
4 little distance it has the effect OF
cross-bars of red, old gold and blue on
a gold ground. Another very rich
material Is the Syrian curtains, which
require no trimming, being sufficiently
ornamented with their stripes and sprigs
Of old gold silk. Like all Oriental
stuffs. they nave no dress in them, and
their limpness renders them suitable
for medieval rooms and furniture.
Pretty and cheap curtains could be
made Of alternate strips OF lowered
chintz and coarse furniture lace and
lined with pink or blue SATIN. The
lambrequin, in Its many different
shapes still holds its own, but 1t is not
liked by some as well as the ~valence, or
even a heavy fringe hanging from the
cornlce, or the curtain run on a round
rod of brass or wood.

Ills a well-established theory that or
gans or functions of living creatures
gradually disappear if unused. A ia
miliar illustration is furnished by the
blind fish of caves, whose eyes, through
long disuse, have been reduced to a ru.
dlmentary and slghtless state. 1t APP
pears, however, that this view does not
always hold good, if it be true, aslately
stated, that in some European instances

pearing to have lost IN the slightest de-

SPICE PUDDMG.-Take one small
square loaf of baked bread, peel off the
crust, cut in pieces, and pour upon it
one pint Of boiling water, and add one
tablespoonful of salt. Take one pint OF
flour; add one heaping teaspoonful of
baking powder, two coffeecups of rails
ms, seeded and chopped; mix all well
with the -four, first powder and next
r~aisins, then add soaked bread and one
teaspo6nful each Of allspice, cinnamon,
mace and cloves. Then add, by de-
grees, one c~offeecup of sweet milk, and
beat the mass we'll together. Scald
pudding bag. and put In the pudding,
which should be pretty stiff, and boil
three hours. The whole secret lies in
plunging buildings in boiling water i'm
mediately after they are mixed and
never letting them cease boiling. Be
sure and turn them over, and always
leave room In the bag for swelling.

HOUSEHOLD.

WHEN butter Is properly churped,
both as 10 the time and temperature, IL
becomes firm with a very little work
inc. and it is tenacious; but its most de-
s,fable state is waxy, when it Is easily
moulded into any shape, and may be
drawn ont a considerable length with
out breaking, 1t is then styled gilt
edged. It is only in this state that but
Ter possesses that rich, nutty flavor and
smell. and shows up a rich golden yell
low color. which imparts so high a de-
gree of pleasure in eating it, and
which increases its value manifold. 1t
is not always necessary, when 1t smells
sweet. to taste butter IN judging it.
The smooth unctuOus feeling in rub
hing a little between the finger and
thumb expresses at once its rich quail
ity; the nutty smell and rich aroma in
dictates a similar taste; and the bright
golden. gllstening, cream-colored sur
face shows its height Of cleanliness. 1t
NAV be necessary at times to use the
trjcr. or even use it until you become
an expert in testing by taste, smell and
rubbing.

AN oddly in furniture has made its
appearance; a bed with a bench at
tachment. The bench is OF comfort
able proportion, and extends the length
of the foot-board, which forms its
back. A specimen Of this curious bed
stead, displayed in the store of a prom
inent furniture dealer, is Of polished
mahogany and a finished and hand
some piece of work. Probably the
bench is added to furnish slttings In an
apartment not very large, like the major
ity Of bedrooms, or perhaps it is de-
signed as a place OF waiting for irate
wives whose husbands belong to a lodge.

Io~dge-3oing individual returning to his

order to rest there and pull his boots

Water saturated with alum IS recon-
needed by the veteran scientist, NJ.
Dumas, as a speedy and effectual reme-
dy Tor e~xtinguishing fires. His propo-
sitlon Is based on the theory that the
alum would coat the object wetted
with 1t, intercept the access of atmos-
pherlc oxygen, and thus stay combus-
ton.
