The Life of the Leg.

The perfect leg, like the life of man.
suffers many changes in its career. The
infants leg is chubby and of uncertain
shape and promises. its superhuous
flesh is apt to leave it at G years old, and
ten or eleven years must pass before its
curves grow picturesque. At 90 it full
fills its destiny, and remains perfect in a
healthy figure until nearly middle age.
At so it begins its decline, which may be
marked by scragginess, but is more often
distinguished by settling of the fat be-
low the calf, so that the leg is all one
size from knee to shoe top.-New York

Bicarbonate of soda is very often put
up in packages and labeled saleratus, but
this is an adulteration, or rather fraud,
as real saleratus is the bicarbonate of
potash and is obtained from entirely a
different source. There is, however. an
easy method of distinguishing between
the two. If some of the suspected SUBJ
stance be spriukled pretty thickly over
some loose cotton and saturated with
alcohol and the alcohol set on fire, the
flame will be bright yellow if the SUBJ
stance is baking soda, and purplish if
it is real saleratus. nti-Adulteration
