INTERESTING FACTS ABour HONEY.

Samuel Cnshman, of Rhode Island, in
his circular says: s'Honey is the only
purely natural sweet in a commercial form.
1t is the nectar of flowers gathered and
stored by the bees, and changed by them
to the smooth mellow sweet known as
honey. 1t furnishes the same element of
nutrition as sugar and starch = gives
warmth and energy. Starch and sugar
when eaten, undergo a digestive change
before they are assimilated. In honey
this. change has been made to a considera-
BILE extent by the bees. 1t is partly d.
gested, easy of assimilation, and concen-
trated. The longer honey is on the hive,
the more complete is this change. 1t
derives its flavor from the blossoms
from which it was gathered. There is
as much difference in honey as in milk
or butter, and the same liability of adul-
iteration. Owing to the low prices,
caused by improved methods and in
creased production, it is less adaltera-
ted than formerly; probably nc more
than other food products. When every
producers name is on each package, he
thinks as much of producing a good
article as does the producer of choice
fruit or butter. As a medicine, honey has
great value and many uses. 1t is excel
lent in most throat and lung affections,
and is often used in place Of cod liver oil
with great benefit. Occasionally there are
found people with whom it does not agree,
as is the case with other articles of food,
but the majority can learn to use it with
beneficial results. Children, who have
more natural appetites. generally prefer it
to butter with their bread. Honey is n
laxative and a sedatiye, and in disease of
bladder and kidneys it is an excellent
remedy. 1t also partakes OF the medicinal
properties of the plant from which it was
gathered. 1t has much the same effect as
wine or stimulants, without their injurious
effects, and is ~unequalled in mead and
harvest drinks. AS an external applica-
ton it is irritating when clear, and sooth-
ing if diluted. In most country places the
qualities of honey are appreciated, and it
is much used for Group and colds. In pre-
serving frlit in a natural state, the formic
acid it contains makes it a better preserva-
tive than sugar syrup. In cooking and
CONNECTIONS it is also used.

RESULTS OF IGNORANCE.

Who does not know that the sufferings,
peril and short life of our infants is largely
due to ignorance on the part of mothers of
the common laws which govern develop
ment, and secure healthful activity in life
and yet the rnles are few, simple and
easy of application-as proper clothing,
loosely worn and moderate in length;
proper food, taken at regular intervals
(Which for months should be mothers
milk only, where the supply is sufficient
and good; abundant sleep; freedom from
nervous excitement, too often brought about
by senseless endeavors to show OFF the
brightness or cunning ways of the child;
proper care-taking at the periods of teeth
ing, learning to walk, etc.
How few realize that deformities arise
from encouraging a child TO walk before
the bony structures are sufficiently hard
ened, and from allowing it to sit too con-
tinuously while the bones are more cartil-
aginous than osseous. Especially may
this habit prove disastrous 20 female child
rem, from the fact that the diameter of the
pelvis may be so much changed by contin-
ued pressure of the superintendent weight
of the trunk of the body and head upon it
that in after life may prove not only haz-
ardous, but, perchance, impossible-to say
nothing of the risk of producing spinal cur
Natures and chest deformities in either sex.
Fresh air and opportunity for voluntary
exercise of the limbs are in the province of
every mother to give, but are they regular
ly accorded by a majority?
Use of drugs should be sedulousIy
avoided, and yet there are mothers, count
less in number, who, through ignorance,
ply the stomachs Of their babes continu-
ously, not with the old time catnip and
mint teas only, but with vile nostrums,
which, under the seductive titles of sooth-
ing syrups and ~carminatiYes, carry blunt
ed sensib:lities, dizziness, and ofttimes the
germs of imbecility, and even death itself,
in their train. Poor babes. must they ever
fill the role of victims? / fear, yes, till
such time as women rouse from their
lethargic mental condition and shake off
the shaekles of ignorance, through which
these wholesale abuses remain possible.
Experience and observation alike point to
the facts that most of the suffering INCL
dent to the period of early womanhood and
its ~fixation Gall too frequently for life) is
due to the neglect of mothers, who allow
their daughters 10 enter upon the most i'm
portant period of their lives, wholly IN
acquainted with the nature of the changes
which are taking place inthe economy, and
the necessity for care taking which grows
out of them, and this neglect applies al
most equally to women in every phase and
condition of life, the generally intelligent
and cultivated, no less than the opposites.

NEARING THE END.
An Estimable Citizen Whose Doc
tors Have Given Up Hope.

John j. O'Leary, one of st. PauPs

and merchant. lies at the point OF death
at his home on Marshall avenue. Mi.
O'Leary was stricken down about ten

possibly be with his anxious family an
other day, but his death is inevlta-
bic. A man of fine physique and
robust constitution. he has borne up
under his illness better than was eX-
pected, and only few days ago ms
physicians hoped that Mcknight survive
the ailment that is now, by slow and
tedious degrees, eXhausting his life. Mr.
O'Leary is native of Pennsylvania,

been operating the department on
Tenth Street and the large packing
house on the levee. -Four years ago he
retired from active business and de-
voted himself to the care of property

and after the Lullaby and '-Old Col
ony Times the glee club was called
back three times. One of the songs
given as an encore was WHO Was

dered. After the concert, ST. PauI's
