Coffee and its Effects.

Journal of Commerce (Boston).
Coffee owes its stimulating and re-
freshing qualities, to caffeine. 1t al
so contains gum and sugar, fat, acids,
casein, and wood fiber. Like tea, it
powerfully increases the respiration;
but, unlike it, does not affect its
depth. By its use the rate of the
pulse is increased and the action of
the skin diminished. 1t lessons the
amount of blood sent to the organs of
the body, distends blood sent to the
organs of the body, distends the
veins an illaries,
thus preventing waste of tissue. 1t
is mental stimulus of a high order,
and one that is liable to great abuse.
Carried to excess, it produces abnor-
NAL wakefulness, indigestion, acidity,
heartburn, tremors, debility, irrita-
bility of temper, trembling, irregular
pulse, a kind of intoxication ending
in delirium and great injury to the
spinal functions. Unfortunately,
there are many coffee tipplers who
depend upon it as drunkard upon
his dram. On the other hand, coffee
is Of sovereign efficacy in tiding over
the nervous system in emergencies.
Coffee is also, in its place, an excellent
medicine. In typhoid fever its action
is frequently prompt and decisive.
1t is indicated in the early stages be-
fore local complications arise. Coffee
dispels stupor and lethargy, is an
antidOte for many kinds of poison,
and is valuable in spasmodic asthma,
whooping cough, cholera infantum,
and Asiastic cholera. 1t is also
excellent as preventive against
infectious and epidemic diseases. In
districts rife with malaria and fever
the drinking of hot coffee before
passing into the open air has enabled
persons living in such places to escape
contagiOn. 4 -H.I

The Quincy House Cat.

Helen M. Winslow, in Nov. Wide Awake.
At the Quincy House in Boston,
may be seen in the Office an oil paint
ing of an immense yellow cat. The
first time noticed the picture, l was
proceeding into the dining-room, and
while waiting for dinner, was amused
at seeing the original of the picture
walk sedately in, all alone, and 60
ing to an empty table, seat himself
with majestic grace in chair. The
waiter, seeing him, came forward
and pushed up the chair as he would
do for any other guest. The cat then
waited patiently without putting his
paws on the table or violating any
other law of table etiquette, until a
plate of meat came, cut up to suit his
taste Il did not hear him give his
orderD, and then placing his front
paws on the edge of the table he ate
from his plate. When he had
finished, he descended from his table
and stalked out of the room with
much dignity.
| have a cat who always comes to
the table with us, sits in her particular
chair, and is too polite to ever think
of putting her paws on the table.
She has her saucer on the chair, how
ever, and does not eat directly from
the table like the Quincy House cat.
The latter is regular to his meals, and
although he picks out good seat,
does not always sit at the same table.
He is, in appearance, something like
the famous orange cats of Venice,
and attracts much attention, as might
be expected.
Theophile Gautier, among his
numerous cats, had one who ate at
table with him, and who talked and
entertained his callers until her mas
ter made his appearance. l can
readily believe him, as 1 had a cat
who talked necessarily. One of her
tricks was to get on the window-seat,
outside, and demand to be let ir.
She was not always waited upon
Immediately, and when the door was
finally opened to her. she would stop
when halfway in, and scold vigorous
ly. The tones of her voice and ex-
preston Of her face were so exactly
like those of a scolding woman that
she caused many hearty laugh by
her viXenish TRADES.

MANAGING CHILDREN.
Why They Should Mt All Times BE Given
Something to Do.


An important point in managing
children is to always have ready some-
thing for the little hands to do at those
times which come quite often on rainy
and other days when, tired of play,
they listlessly gaze through the
window or wander aimlessly about,
not knowing what to do with them
selves. Children at such times are G
great trial to the busy and often nerv-
GUS people Of the house, and are quite
likely to be scolded, though such a
course is so unwise and unjust that it
can lead only to the worst results in
the child's future. Calm and reprov-
ing words, kindly spoken, are neces-
sary with all bright children and are
usually very effective, but words ut
tered in a sharp, scolding tone must in
most cases work an injury to the child's
disposition. 1t is all the more sad, be-
cause the matter could be so easily
managed by a very little attention on
the mothers part.
How often we hear mothers or older
sisters say to some little child who is
full of desire to do right if it only
knew how: DO get something to do;
how lazy you are; never saw such q
good-for-nothing child. l am sure I
don't know what is to become of you,"
and a great deal more of such talk,
which, alas, most people have heard
too often. The child at such times is
not in fault. 1t is the mothers duty to
see that suitable work Is always ready,
and she should require the child to do
a moderate task for which she should
not be afraid to give due measure of
praise after it is done. Always be care
full to see that the child is not kept too
long at one task as such course would
be worse than idleness.
1t is worthy of note that the work
given to u child has great influence
in molding the mind and taste A child
kept always at knitting stockings or
cuttlng carpet-rags Will be very prac-
teal, perhaps too much so. A wise
mother will have a variety Of work,
both useful and ornamental. Some
parents think it useless to teach boys
to sew or knit. 1t is not, however, for
there are many times in a boys life
when such knowledge may be useful.
have often observed that many col
lege boys could mend their own clothes
while they were quite up in their
classes. l think the subject should be
thoughtfully considered by parents,
seeing to it that time should never
hang on their children's hands for
want of something to do. american

LAWYER AND JUDGE.
An Old-Time Missouri Attorney Who Wa
Not Easily Put Down.

Not Easily Put Down.
Mr.. Peyton R. Hayden was in his
time one of the prominent lawyers of
Missouri; but he seldom read any
thing outside of his profession, and
was laughably ignorant of history and
geography. Once, in cross-examining
a witness, he said: estate, if you
please, to what nationality you be-
long"
81 am q Dane, sir" answered the
witness.
"You are Dane, are you? Now,
will you be so kind as to tell us when
you left Dane?"
~ never left Dane, sir; I left Den
mark
Every one in the room laughed, and
the cross-examlnation came to a sud-
den end.
Mr. Hayden was not always so easily
put down, however He seldom used
the terms plaintiff and defendant, but
spoke of the parties by name. One
day he was pleading the case of a Mr..
Jones, and as he went on repeated the
name again and again. Finally the
judge interrupted him.
"Mr. Hayden, will you do me a ia
vorp"
Certainly, your Honor, with pleas
ure."
81 thought" said the Judge, hest
tatingly, "if you have no objection, you
might be willing to tell me the name Of
your client"
A general roar greeted this sally,
but Mr.. Hayden at once replied: "Of
course, sir; my clients name is William
Jones, sir. He lives down on the Moro,
sir, just below Jefferson City, sir. His
name is William Jones, sir.
81 thank you," said the judge; pro
coed with your argument"
Mr.. Hayden proceeded, and taking
up certain point, went over it and
over 1t, till the judge again grew i'm
patient
Il wish to know, Mr.. Hayden, ifyou
will do me another favor. y
Certainly, sir"
"Then | wish to know whether you
don't think that when a lawyer has
said the same thing one hundred and
fifty times it would be well for him to
move onP" -
mo, sir" said Mr. Hayden; Il don't
think any such thing, and l will tell
you why. l suppose, sir, that il I had
mentioned the name of my client once,
l had done so q hundred and fifty times
but after all, your Honor, sir, forgot
his name, and WAS obliged to ask me
what it was So, now, my plan is not
only to say thing, bat to rub it in if
can. y Youths Companion.

 c. T. Ward of this city, member of the firm of Bennett, Snow & Co.,, New York, and E. A. Kelsey of the Jewell Betting com pany, Meriden, claim the distinction of be- ing the only overland travellers between Bridgeport and this city since the big bliz- gard severed rail and other communication.
 They made the journey on foot yesterday
 and the story they tell of the immensity of
 the banks of desert whiteness covering rail
 and country between Milford and Bridge
 port is remarkable. The pilgrims arrived at
 the Union depot yesterday afternoon at 4
 o'clock. MT. Kelsey immediately bearded
 train for Meriden and Mir. Ward repaired to
 his home on Howe street. When interview
 ed by COURIER representative last night
 Mir Ward outlined the incidents of the trip
 as follows: s'We left New Haven on the S:1O
 train Monday morning and proceeded with.
 out incident until we struck East Bridge
 port, when we were stalled. After a four
 days stop in Bridgeport we tired of the town and in default of other coMmunica- tion with New Haven, decided to make the journey on foot. Starting from Bridgeport shortly after 9 o'clock, we journeyed along through knee deep snow until about three miles from the town, when we encountered l an immense bank of snow, which lowered up nearly to the telegraph wires. We had to stoop to pass under the wires. At Naugatuck junction we found the block sig nal tower a wreck The tower was wrecked ! Monday afternoon about 2 o'clock. In it's ! fall it smashed the box house of section men | and killed one of the inmates. The man was ! instantly killed and his two comrades told a sad tale of deprivation and suffering. The I body of the man was horribly mulilated ,hav- \ ing remained under the debris until Tuesday l morning. The two survivors were alone and ! the only habitation available was 8 farm | house back in the country. Here they procured | food and then took up residence in the de- serted station at this point. After leaving \ Naugatuck we wended our way toward Mil | ford and came acress big drift in cut l which was nearly mile long and twenty i five feet deep with snow. The snow at this point will have to be shoveled out and the l work entailed will be immense. l didn't i think it possible for the railroad company to clear the roadway at this point inside of two l days We arrived at Milford at 12:30. Here | we found two locomotives from New Haven ! pumping their weary way through the con gealed water. They were making fair progress \ but when they strike the drift ahead the sbumping process will be of no avail. We dined at Milford and struck New Haven at 4:4O footsore and exceedingly weary in the full and complete sense of the word"
 MT. Ward wanted it distinctly understood l that he and Kelsey were the first pilgrims over the trackless waste.

Notes at Savtn Rock.

Savin Reck presents very grand sight to the curiosity seeker who has plenty of pluck and muscle and courage enough to venture down there on foot. In some places on Beach street the snow is six feet deep, especially in front of the Beach House and Sea View House. At the head of Kelsey's wharf it is fully as much as eight feet deep in huge drift. James Gardner Clarke arrived at his residence on Beach street, just west of Sum- mer street, yesterday morning, having been bound in New Haven. Milk became so scarce that condensed milk had to be used
 The West Haven horse railroad has had a large gang of men at work opening the road and they now have it open from Beach street all the way to Union depot in New Haven and the CATE run very nearly on time.

 Throughout the great storm the best of good feeling has prevailed and few people have complained of the lack of comforts which the atmospheric disturbances have oe- casioned There is only one thing, however about which the most good natured are dis posed to grumble, and that is the wretched condition of the main walk across the Green from the corner of Church and Chapel streets to the corner of College and Elm. The con- dition of the walk is dangerous to foot pas sers and broken limb may be the result of an attempt to navigate in that direction after dark. Here and there the city's men have excavated large holes and slids from the summit of miniature mountain to the hard pavement of the valley beneath, by nc means pleasant trip, is frequent occurrence. The walk should be cleared at once, for thou sands of pedestrians cross that way daily and the walk is now dangerous. A prominent citizen remarked last evening that he had in tended complaining at the Mayors office of the walk, but press of business hindered. Unless the matter is attended to without de- lay shower of complaints may be expected
