Sacchariue Diabetes.

The JatIua} 4 Hygiene gives an ac-
count Of NJ. Felizet's discovery of a
remedy for saccharine diabetes-a dis
ease usually regarded A. incurable. lie
states that he has succeeded in putting
an end to e-ycosuria artiticially produc-
ed in animals. and that the medicine
TIM, effective will likewise cure diabetes
in q few weeks or months. There ex-
lists. he say. bond OF union between
artificial gIycosuria, intermittent diaDet-
e. and confirmed diabetes. and that
bond is irritation OF the rachidian bulb /;
it is not. then, in masking the disease
by submission to the seventies of reg
linen exempt from bread, ieculents, SUI
gar. etc, that cure results, but by
topping the very source Of the produc-
ton Of sugar---that is, by suppressing
the irritation of the bulb. Bromide OF
potassium suppresses the effect. of such
irritation with a rapidity that is often
surprising, and, in large and repeated
doses, cures the diabetes.

Educating Colts.

The education of the colt should com
mence when he is very young. and BY
those only who are themselves educated
or ri least have common sense enough
10 know how. Horses OF high mettle
are more easily educated than those Of
less or dull spirits, and are more sus-
ceptlble to lll-u aiming or bad manage
ment. and, consequently, NAV be made
good or bad according to the education
they receive. But horses OF dull sririt
are susceptible TO bad management, and
in them may be found the most pro-
yoking obstinacy and vicious habits Of
different characters, that render them
almost worthless. Could the coming
generation of horses in this country be
kept. from their earliest DAYS of colt
hood 10 the age of five wears. wholly in
the hands Of good and careful mana
gers, there woul be a vast difference
in the general character of these noble
animals
II a colt is never allowed to get an
advantage. ii Will never know that il pos
sesses power which man cannot con-
troll and If made familiar with strange
objects it will not be skittish and ner-
vous. Above all things, colt should
he early taught to stop at the word,
whoa !, He should be made to stand
quietly while you are getting in and
out of the carriage or wagon to which
he is hitched as the lack of this part
of his education subjects the person, or
persons using him. to frequent annoy
ance, and often seriou. injury. Vicious
habits are easily induced in horses by
tickling and plaguing them while in
the stable, and under no circumstances
should ever be tolerated. Never beat
or use harsh language to horse in the
stable, unless you prefer vicious to
clever one. A horse is susceptible
of taking in vast amount of know
ledge; and his education should be OF
the nature that will render him the most
safe and useful.-O. Gleason in Anseri-
can Agriculturist for august.

Household Hints.

Boil coffee in salt sack this is bet
ter than eggs for settling the coffee
A delicate glue for mounting ferns
and seaweed is made of five parts gum
arabic, three parts white sugar, two
parts starch. and very little water.
Boil until thick ard white.
A medical writer says that the same
knife should not be used for both peel
ing and slicing pineapple, as the rind
contains an acid that is likely to cause
a swollen mouth and sore lips. The
Cubans use salt as an antidote for the
i'll effects of the peel.
The secret in MASKING potatoes is to
have all the utensils as hot as possible
and beat the mass till light instead of
pressing down smooth and solid, adding
milk. buttermilk and salt at will. A
desirable result is attained by rubbing
the mashed potato through a hot colan-
der and leaving it just as it falls into
the dish.

Keeping Vegetables from Whiting.

the Country Gentleman believes the
best way to keep vegetables succulent
is to pack them in damp sawdust, placed
in barrels of moderate size, or in
boxes of not more than two feet in
width. Place layer of sawdust in
the bottom, then layer of roots, then
fill in the interstices with another layer
and so on till the box is full leaving
no crevices. 1t is asserted that beets
have been thus kept so fresh that there
was no external difference between
them and fresh ones. When nursery
mems moss is obtained it is regarded
as better than sawdust.

A little woman, worn aud old.
Sat by her cottage door.
With folded hands upon her lap.
Her knitting on the floor.
The playful kitten. at it, will
Entanglcd still the warn:
The good man came with shutting step
From out the iow-roofcd harm.
Unnotcd hy the musing dame.
Whose thoughts were far away,
Until the noisy boys came in.
Each from his work or play.
And for their supper clamored loud,
Showing the ample store
OF pearlN eggs that thew had found.
And milk pail brimming DER.
Then She arose with quiet step,
Clad in her sober gown,
And brought for ttem the wheaton loaf,
And place., beside the brown;
With cheese and butter from the kline
That brow>ed upon the hill.
And poured with careful hand the milk
Each urchin'> cup to nil.
With many a merry Joke and laugh
The humble feast sped on.
The mother watched with smiling eye,
NTH the last was done.
Then. for space. they >ai aud talked
