Tho demented Rhode Island barber, who
cut the throat of customer the other day,
will have the effect of injuring his trade if
nothin. worse happens to him. Il was shay
sSd by that barber on numerous OCCASIONS"
said a Providence merchant the other day,
sand | thought that he acted funny sometimes;
but as that Is not unusual for a barber |
thought nothing more oft. Itremble 10 th!nk
of what might havo been the consequences
had my throat been cut in one OF his crazy
freaks" It is now said that it had been known
for long time that the BARRIERS brain was
diSordered, and that a physician had advised
his removal TO an asylum for treatment Still
he was permitted to manipulate the razor and
put mems lives in danger till at last lie made
a victim OF an unfortunate fellow.
1t certainly passes understanding how any
body can justify the carelessness that permits
a crazy barber to pursue his calling. And
yet am told that one Of the crack" BARRIERS IN
q well-known hotel in this city was for seven
months an inmate OF an insane asylum. Cow
that public attention has been directed to this
matter it is probable that there will be large
number OF mon who Will pattern after tAe
president and shave themselves The president
boasts that he has not been shaved by bar
Der in twenty years, preferring to shave HIM
self The crazy barber and tho fact that a
man who shaves himself has been elected pres
ident are not such things as will improve
trade in the barber shops.-Alfred Trumble

DANGERS OF MATCHMAKING.
Striking Effects of Long-Continued Phos-
phorus PoisoninG-The Remedy.

Striking Effects of Long-Continued Phos-
phorus PoisoninG-The Remedy.
In tie making Of lucifer matches, the ends
of the wood, suitably dried and split, are
dipped into paste composed Of phosphorus
and chlorate or nitrate of potash. OF course,
there are the dangers Of explosion and acct
dental burns from these chemicals; in addi-
ton, the employees, chiefly women and chill
dren, are poisoned by fumes of phosphorus.
Almost all of them are pale and badly nour-
ished; complain of pains in the stomach and
dyspepsia; while many of them have 4 catarrh
of the stomach; lung diseases - especially
catarrhs anG- consumption arc frequent.
Some match manufacturers say that the work
men become duh and stapil, and have no
energy or heart in their work
The most striking effect Of Iong-continucd
phosphorus poisoning il to produce death Of
portions OF bones, particularly that Of the
lower law This disease appears after four
or five years employment III this business,
and 10 OF L. per cent. OF tho Old hands become
thus affected. ToothaChe is generally the
first thing wrong that is noticed, then pains
in the face, swelling and tenderness Of the
gums. enlarged glands, etc. Then an abscess
forms. which discharges offensive matter, and
sOOner or later it il discovered that a part Of
the bone is dead Wnen the upper jaw is
affected the disease is slow III its progress; in
the lower one it runs a shorter course and IS
attended 10y more suffering. # the dead bone
is removed 10y surgical operation, recovery IS
the rule; while 81 to - per cent. Of those
neglected die.
TO prevent this painful and sometimes fata!
disease. the most complete ventilation OF TIE
working rooms particularly near the floor,
where the heavy vapors sink for time,
should be enforced. As the four thousandth
part OF the vapor OF oil Of turpeDtne in the
air prevents the giving Off of phosphorus
vaporS at ordinary temperatures, dishes con
tanning this substance should Toe freely dis
tIibuted about the floors of the rooms The
English workmen carry small tin boxes CON
tanning this oil suspended from their necls, IN
order to prevent inhaling the poisonous

A FAREWELL.
Farewell, farewell, unhappy earth,

Farewell, farewell, unhappy earth,
That cannot see US two as one;
And farewell, Sig of little worth.
Till thou canst bring a brighter sun.
And welcome, Ocean, am thine,
Oh, touch me with thy bitter wine;
Give OFT, with wilder fancy's birth,
a wall OF waves to anguish run.
Oh. take me to thy crystal breast
And bear me hence a myriad miles,
TIL this year dieth in the west.
And next year in the Orient smiles.
Sing to me, bring to me fairer dreams
Til some new sun in heaven CLEANS;
Til then know not peaceful rest,
Unmarried by passions sleepless wile3.
And farewell, maiden, loved too well.
l fear, hope, smile, sigh;
Ecar my spirits final knell,
hear the joy bells in the sky.
Til spring again hath barred her feet
Out OF her winter winding sheet.
Over the forest and over the fell,
Through loveless countries wander L.
