August Night Air.-An exchange says ::
"There are those who ridicule the idea that there
can be anything hurtful in August night air.
Experience has long since shown this to be a
fallacy and the sooner the fact is recognized the
better. August night air, properly encountered,
is not hurfu but it is not safe to sit at the front
door in your shirt sleeves or in a gauzy dress,
with uncovered heads, etc. Far better to err the
other way, and be little too warmly clad for COM
fort. We have had an unusually wet summer ;
vegetation has been more luxuriant than usual,
and this is the season when it begins to decay and
impregnate the atmosphere with malarous agents,
which are always most active at night. 1t is for
this reason that such exposure to the night air as
that to which wo have referred is injudicious, if
not absolutely dangerous. Many attack of
malaria, if carefully traced to its source would be
found to have its origin in a disregard of the
simple caution above given"

Electric Railroad Extension branch
of the Baltimore and Hampden Electric Railroad,
running to West Hampden, or Sweet Air, over
which the car is drawn by horses, will shortly be
converted into an electric road and operated as
other parts of the main road, the only difference
being that the electric current will be carried
overhead and brought into the motor by lever
on the roof containing copper brush, which
makes the contact, instead of having the current
carried along the centre rail and taken up by a
copper wheel, as on the main road. The over
head system is used at the curve crossings along
the entire road, and works much better than thu
centre rail plan. Mr.. 7. C. Robbins, general
superintendent Of the road, says it is probable
the overhead system will soon be put in operation
along the whole line of the road and the centre
rail torn up.-Sun.

USEFUL INFORMATION

To Obtain Sleep.-Onions inhaled cause sleep,
rest and repose. The soldier ON his march and
the exhausted iron worker get great strength
from eating the onion. Tie fresh onion around
the neck and bruise it to make odor thorough, and
you secure sound sleep from its nightly inhalation.

Kitchen ano Garden.-From the american
AnricuLfurist for Sentemher:

Kitchen ano Garden.-From the american
Agricultural for September:
AS as crop is removed, do not let the
ground grow up to weeds, but occupy it with some
useful plant Strap. leaved turnips, on good soil,
will make crop in ninety days, and are excel
lent for feeding to stock and for marketing.
Rather than leave it unoccupied, sow it to rye to
be cut for the cows next spring and then to be
turned under as a manure.
Root Crops.-Continue to hoe all those that are
still young until the leaves prevent.
S,oeet Corn.-Where there is an abundance, dry
a supply for winter use, boiling before cutting it
from the cobs. Save only the largest and earliest
ears are gathered and cure for winter fodder.
Celery.-Hoe frequently to keep clear of weeds,
and encourage growth, which will be most rapid
in this month of cool nights and warm days.
Cabbages and Caulifo,oers are greatly helped
by frequent hoeing. If backward, give a sprink-
ling of guano at hoeing.
n,bers.-Gather for pickles at least every
other day, and daily if the patch is large and the
growth rapid. Always cut with the stem attach
ed. If any have grown too large, cut them away,
unless seed is wanted.
.Soeet Potatoes.-The ridges may be opened, the
large roots carefully removed, and the rest left
to grow. If the vines take root at the joints,
move them, at least in Northern localities.
Meions.-Remove all fruits that set too late to
ripen. Turn occasionally as they approach ma
turity.
Spinach, for use next spring should be sown this
month, in rows fifteen inches apart. We have
found one variety to be as hardy as another
7omatoes.-Search for and destroy the large
green "worm" that devours both leaves and fruit
Cut away the clusters that set so late that they
will not mature or get large enough for pickles
Make catsup while the fruit is still abundant, and

| done. String beans should be boiled in the same
way to make them perfectly wholesome"
A Lininent for Ear ache According to the
| Canada Medical Record Pavesi recommends q
| liniment composed of camphorated chloral q
parts, pure glycerine 161 parts, and oil of sweet
almonds 10 parts. This is to be well mixed, and
| preserved in Theoretically closed bottle. A
pedget of very soft cotton is to be soaked in the
iiniment, and then introduced as far as possible
into the affected ear, two applications being made
daily. Frctions may also be made each day with
the preparation behind the ear. 1t is claimed
that the pain is almost Immediately relieved and
even in many cases the Inflammation is subdued.
A Simple Remedy for Chronic Diarrhea.-Dr.
T. C. Smith, writing in the Med. and Surg. Re
porter, June IL, 1886, mentions the fact of his
having cured a case of chronic diarrhea which
had lasted for nearly forty years, by the admins
tration of saturated solution of salt and cider
vinegar, drachm being taken three or four times
q day. He also states that since the first instance
where he recommended this homely remedy, with
out supposing that it would actually do any good,
he has employed it several times in more or less
severe cases of chronic diarrhea, in which it pro-
duced great improvement, and, in some cases,
cure. Where relapses followed the suspension of
the remedy, its renewed administration was again
followed by improvement
Kindness to Animals ,-Every one should know
that kindly treated animals will do their best for
| their owners. A curious case happened recently,
which may be given as an example. noted
| trotter was driven in race by strange driver.
The horse evidently dissatisfied and lost two
| heats. The old driver knew the horse could do
better, and begged the owner to be permitted to
drive him. His entreaties prevailed, and when
| he mounted the sulky the horse whnned with
pleasure and won the next three heats with ease,
making such record that the owner had an offer
of fifteen thousand dollars for the animal. 1t is
| always thus. farm horse kindly treated will
| do more work than one which is not attached to
the owner or driver. A COW will lose milk when
| attended by strange or dsagreeable person, and
one that is petted and treated with gentleness will
never exhibit the common fractiousness of kick
ing, or holding up the milk. This is true of all
| farm animals, who return kindness with affection
and generosity, and abundantly repay the consid-
Grafton shown them by their owners. Every boy,
especially every farmers boy, should early learn
| to treat all animals with kindness.

Shot With a Cat Rife.-wm. A. League

Shot With Cat Rif1e.-Wm. A. League,
aged about 16 years, son of Joseph J. League,
formerly resident of the 18th district of this
county, accidentally shot himself with a cat rife,
on Thursday afternoon last at 100 east Pratt st.,
Baltimore. The boy boarded on the corner of
Broadway and Pratt street, and had gone to No.
100. where he formerly boarded, to play, and had
taken the cat rifle with him. While in the yard
hunting for rats the gun went off, and the ball
entered his head near the right temple, making
an ugly wound. DR.. Mansfield was summoned to
attend him, and at first it was feared that the
wound would prove fatal, but afterwards the pa
tent rallied and hopes are entertained of his re-
covery. Young League is a grandson of the late
Adam II. Krout, of this county. He is large for
his age and quite fine looking. Joseph j. League,
the father of this boy, was tried in our court
some years ago for the killing of the unknown
woman at Chase's Station, Philadelphia, Will
mington and Baltimore Railroad.

A GRAND NEW OPERA HOUSE.

Many have been the inquiries as to what
had become OF the fine opera house and the
men WHO were to build it, of which mention
was two or three times made subsequent to
the sale of the old opera house. We are
pleased TO inform our theatre going people
that there has been no bitches, and that ev-
erything is sailing along smoothly. An emf
nent architect, who makes the planning and
drawing of opera houses and theatre build
ings speciality, is busily engaged in getting
up the designs and working plans of one Of
the finest theatre buildings in the west for
Wichita. Of which we saw the assurance yes
teriay in the way of letter from one of the
men whose money is going into the enter
prise. OF course everybody here recognizes
the fact that before such building can pos
sibiy be erected the cry viii go up long and
strong. but it will be coming. Next TO Kan
sas City no city in the west offers the induce
ments for such an investment as this. and
that is true largely from the fact that we
have here the most cosmopolitan or utilitarian
community to be found in the state In the
language Of the show people, Wichita is the
best show town in the state. The letter al
luded to seems to indicate something grand
and beautiful in the way Of an opera house,
which win be fully up to the demands Of
what we viii want in the future
