Mrs. Bessie Houston, of Boston, a
Undertaking. medium, who has been
hoodwinking people in Manchester,
n. H., was exposed at seance on the
evening of the 9th ult., in the pres
ence Of many prominent citizens.
She pretended that spirit form came
to the party. The spirit was sliced
and thrown to the floor, and on the
lights being turned up proved to be
Mrs. Houston. Her husband attempt
ed to use billy but the audience
prevented. Houston and his wife left
on the midnight freight.
1t is often asked, what is physi-
clans teaspoonful. 1t is 60 drops, or
one drachm. Every family should
have medicine glass on which the
accurate measures are naked. AS
there are teaspoons of many sizes, it
is somewhat injudicious to use one
that holds more or less than 60 drops.
1t has often happened that the physi-
clans prescription has failed in its
efficacy, or has produced results not
desired, because the person who has
administered the medicine has been
careless as to the exact quantity.
Among lot of eggs received by
Sprague & Sons at St. Louis a few
weeks ago, was one with this inscrip-
ton in lead pencil: "Whoever eats
this egg will please write Miss Mollie
Graham, Pana, H." Says a writer
in the Globe Democrat: / gave the
egg to a young man, who wrote as
directed, and got a very pretty and
very modest answer. Pana is not
far away and letters fly quickly be-
tween there and St. Louis. Miss
Graham and the gentleman exchanged
photographs, and now l hear the
young fellow has sent proposal and
a favorable reply. Miss
Graham, they tell me, is handsome
young girl and the daughter of a
wealthy farmer living two miles from
Pana.

NOTES..

The Third Avenue strike in New
York is getting on much more etfec-
tually since peaceable measures were
adopted. The American people do
not take kindly to violence and dis
cord.
The Western Knights of Labor
very sensibly conclude not to attempt
to force the adoption of the eight
hour standard all at once. 1t must
come by degrees, and as the result of
favorable experiment.
A good disinfectant for sinks and
waste pipes is made by mixing one
large tablespoonful of copperas with
one quart of boiling water.
Tapestry rugs may be frightened
by shaking them thoroughly, then
brushing lightly with small corn
broom dipped in water containing a
little ammonia.
Mrs. Annie B. Richardson, of Low
ell, Mass, who is now trustee of the
State Primary and Reform School,
has been appointed the successor of
Mrs. Leonard as a member of the
Massachusetts Board of health, luna
cy and charity. Another vacancy on
this board will be filled by the ap-
lsoin tunont Of woman
