Spanish women, who are naturally so
dramatic, and who use their hands so
much in talking, will, | am told, absolutely
sleep over night with their hands held up
to the bedposts by pullies, so they may be
pale and delicate-looking Really, think
this is the most idiotic thing ever heard
Just imagine anyone cared for coming in and
finding one strung up in this fashion. had
always thought that Spanish women were
coquettes but they don't begin to compare
with the French women in this respect.
The French woman makes toilet for the
bed as naturally as she does for the day
time, and that is where she is very wise.
The horrors of hair in papers and faces
smeared all over with some toilet mess is
a condition so dreadful that it should be
reserved for the dressing room in the day
time with locked doors. A woman in curl
papers is an abomination in the sight of
heaven and earth. If / were man /

KindIin1 a Fire nv Friction.

Many things look simple and easy
enough, but are next to impossible except
to persons who have acquired a certain in
describable knack by means of long prac-
tice. Sir S. w. Baker thus describes the
Arabian process of kindling fire, pro-
cess which many readers of the Companion
have probably tried before now without
success.
The Arabs always obtained their fire by
the friction of two pieces of wood. A piece
Of dry nabbuck was selected about as thicl;
as the little finger A notch was cut in
this, and it was laid upon the ground, with
the notch uppermost; into this was fitted
the sharp point of similar piece of wood
about eighteen inches long, which, being
held perpendicularly with both hands
was worked between the palms like drill
with as great a pressure as possible, from
the top to the bottom, as the hands de
scended with the motion of rubbing OF
rolling the stick.
After about two minutes of great labor
the notch began to smoke; 4 brown dust
like ground coffee, fell from the singec
wood, and this charred substance, after in
creased friction, emitted still densel
smoke and commenced smoldering- Tho
fire was produced.
A rag was now torn from the clothing O
one of the party, in which the fire wa

Foreign Ministers at Washington

Foreign Ministers demand the most
scrupulous observance of the stereotyped
rules of etiquette, and watch with scrutiny
every attention and inattention to them.
A failure to seat n member Of the corps or
his wife in the precise seat belonging to
his or her rank at the table, would, prob
ably, destroy the pleasure of the occasion.
Not one inch further from the host or
hostess than belonged to the country they
represent would be tolerated. The placing
of the diplomats in line to be presented on
occasions of ceremony must be done in
strict observance of rank and importance
of each. Hence, persons dining or enter
tanning these dignitaries must first post
themselves accurately on the status OF
every kingdom, province and principality
if they expect to give their guests pleas

HOW PATRICK HENRY DIED.
Passing Away in the Comforts of Christian
Religion. and Without Pain.

| intussusception. On the 9th of June, al
other remedies having failed, DR. Cabell
proceeded to administer him dose Of
liquid mercury. Taking the vial in his
hand, and looking at it for moment, the
dying man said: Il suppose, doctor, this
is your last resort" The doctor replied +:
! am sorry to say, Governor, that 1t is.
Acute inflammation of the intessines has
already taken place; and unless it is re-
moved, modification will ensue If 1t has
not already commenced, which | fear"
What will be the effees of this medicine:"
said the old man. A" 1t will give you i'm
mediate relief. or" and the kind-hearsed
doctor could not finish the sentence. His
patient took up the word; You mean,
doctor, that it will give immediate relief
or will prove fatal Immediately ?" The
doctor answered: You can only live
very short time without it, and it may
possibly relieve you" Then Patrick Henry
said: Excuse me, doctor, for few min
utes," and drawing down over his eyes
silken cap which he usually wore, and
still holding the vial in his hands, he
prayed, in clear words, simple, child-like
prayer for his family, for his country and
for his own soul then in the presence of
death. Afterward, in perfect calmness, he
swallowed the medicine
Meanwhile DIR. Cabell who greatly
loved him, went out upon the lawn, and
In his grief threw himself down upon the
earth under one Of the trees, weeping Bit
terly. Soon, when he had sufficiently
mastered himself, the doctor came back to
his patient, whom he found calmly watch
ing the congealing of the blood under his
finger nails and speaking words of love
and peace to his family, who We're weeping
around his chair. Among other things he
told that he was thankful for that good
ness OF God, which, having blessed him
through all his life, was then permitting
him 10 die without any pain. Finally,
fixing his eyes with much tenderness on
his dear friend DR.. Cabell, with whom he
had formerly held many arguments re-
speeding the Christian religion, he asked
the doctor to observe how great reality
and benefit that religion was to man
about to die. And after Patrick Henry
had spoken to his beloved physician these
few words in praise of something which,
having never failed him in all his life be-
fore, did not then fail him in his very last
need of it, he continued to breathe very
softly for some moments, after which they
who were looking upon him saw that his
end had come.-ProfesSOr IyJer's Life Of

Race and Insanity.

In an article entitled Grace and Insan-
ity," published in the American Journal Of
Insanity, Drs. Bannister and Hektoen,
physicians of the Illinois Eastern Hospital
for the Insane, express the opinion that
there is little doubt but that insanity is
influenced by race From the statistics of
three institutions in which insane persons
are treated they draw the following con-
illusions; l. That in the white race the
Oppressive types of mental diseases are
most frequent in the Germanic and Scan
dinavian peoples, and least so in the Celts (;
the reverse of this appears to be the case
as to the exalted or maniacal types. 2.
That general paralysis is not disorder 10
which any race is immune, but one that
depends upon causes independent of racial
or national peculiarities. 8. That the
well-known fact that insanity is much
more common amongst the foreign-born
than amongs. natives in this country, is
not to any greater extent explainable by
the shipment of the defective classes OF
Europe to America. The "cranks" and
epilepties and other neurotic individuals
do not appear to be represented, in due
proportion even, amongst the foreigners in
our asylums- The cause of the excess Of
foreign-born insane in this country is, il
seems probable, to be looked for mainly in
the fact, that. surprising the immigration

Among the many mOoted questions in
physiology is the function of the bile, and
every new fact bearing upon this import
ant subject is of great value. DIR. Dastre,
as reported in lie Progres Medical, recently
communicated his observations to the So
cietie de Biologie of Paris. He said that
he had previously proven that the pres
ence of bile in the stomach during differ
ent periods of digestion did not take from
the gastric juice its digestive power; con-
sequently it could not be cause of vomiting
or of severe gastric troubles At the pres
ent time, owing to the success of two oper-
ations for cholecysto- intestinal tistula, he
thought himself in position to conclude
that the bile contributed, as well as the
pancreatic juice, to the digestion Of the
fats-an opinion which is counter to that
expressed by Claude Bernard In fact,
the two animals being in good condition
four months after the establishment of the
tistula, they had been given meal of fat
and milk, and then slaughtered during
full digestion. The examination showed
with absolute clearness that the lacteals
were transparent between the stomach and
fistula, and, on the contrary, entirely white
and milky below the fstula; that is to
say, where the bile had been able TO get {;
consequently, if observation on the rabbit
shows us that the bile alone is unable to
emulsify the fats, the preceding expert
ence shows us that the pancreatic juice
alone is also powerless. They must be
mingled in order to act well. In other
words, bile, as well as the pancreatic Juice,
takes part in the digestion of fats

Novel Irrigation.

One of our subscribers is preparing to
test new method of irrigating strawber-
ries. A fnely-perforated three-fourths-
inch pipe is to be carried along a few
inches below each row of plants and the
soil pressed compactly around it. When
a light pressure is turned on the moisture
will be distributed constantly among the
roots, producing full crop Of bloom ber-
ries and during the entire season. The
only trouble we see with this plan is that
it may not be found practical to perforate
a pipe for any great length without MAX
ing the precolating capacity greater than
the capacity of the pipe, which would not
allow the water to reach the lower end of
the field. But the earth being packed
firmly around the pipe and the holes made
very small might allow just enough moist
IRE to escape along the whole length to
keep the soil in growing condition. Cul-
t;vation could be done much easier and
oftener by having the water supplied from
below, and the tendency of the soil to bake
would be entirely GisndorG

1t is related that Sir Humphrey Davy,
in moving battery he was using for ex-
perimental purposes while the current was
IN circulation, observed that a constant
play of bright light took place between
points in the carbon elements that were
not actually in contact, but in very near
proximity to each other. Further observa-
ton of the phenomenon led to the dis
covery of the electric arc. For years after
wards in lectures and exhibitions wood
charcoal carbons were used in establishing
the arc, which was maintained by moving
the rapidly consumed charcoal points into
proper juxtaposition. Probably not one
among those who looks with interest at
the bright spark imagined that it repre-
scented, in embryonic form, the future
light of the world. But in 1881 (says the
Journal Of C0mmerce), Professor Faraday,
in the course of some experiments with
the voltaic pile, found that if a permanent
magnet was moved near the poles of coil
of insulated wire forming perfect circuit
| during its motion a current of electricity
would be induced in the circuit. In o.her
words, he discovered the possibility and
virtue of induced currents, and laid the
foundation for the magneto-electric ma
chine, and subsequently for the dynamo
electric generator, Of which we have now

A New sun Mnter

Attempts have frequently been made by
| Captain Ericsson and others to turn ia
account the energy of the solar rays. All
these inventors, however, have worked
with steam which only eyaporates under
practicable pressures at comparatively high
temperatures, and to attain these it has
been necessary to concentrate the suns
rays with mirrors. According to Eigiaeer-
ing, NJ. Oh. Teller, however, bv making
use OF another working fluid, has succeeded
In dispensing with these cumbrous and
costly appliances. His engine is worked
with ammonia gas, the solubility of which
/ In water varies enormously with the tenn
perature. Thus at 800 F. one volume of
water will dissolve about 1000 volumes of
gas, but at 1902 F., temperature which is
frequently attained in the tropics, the
amount dissolved is equally small hence s
comparatively small range of temperature
will place at his disposal large quantities of
this gas under pressure. In carrying out this
idea in practice the ammonical solution is
contained in a generator exposed to the
suns rays, which, heating the solution,
cause the gas to be evolved under pressure.
and this is then led off to the cylinder of
an engine. After doing its work here the
gas is passed into kind of condenser.
where it meets with water taken from the
generator through worm surrounded by
cold water, and in this way has had its
temperature reduced, rendering it capable
OF reabsorbing the gas exhausted from the
engine, after which the whole is pumped
back into the generator to begin fresh
cycle.
This apparatus has been worked with
certain amount of success at Paris during
the summer of last year, but the atmos-
pheric conditions are said to have been
very unfavorable, 50 that, though the heat
absorbing surface had an area of 215 square
feet, the work done was only 1850 foot
pounds per hour.

a Filtration Fraud.

Turnips as q Fertilizer.

A correspondent advocates raising tur-
nips to pillow under in preference to clover,
wheat or rye. Turnips cost little for seed
and require little labor to grow. Crops of
$50 to 500 bushels or from %! to "A tons
of turnips have grown upon an acre, with
out including the tops, which would
probably weigh from one to three tons
more while green. OF these over 60 per
cent. Is moisture, but in 80 bushels Of
turnips and three tons of tops there would
be $50 pounds of nitrogen, or as much as
there would be in about 800 pounds of
Peruvian guano, III pounds of potash,
equal 10 that in 81 pounds of wood ashes,
and over 80 pounds of phosphoric acid, the
amount contained in go pounds of
pure bone. Most farmers would
consider the above mixture a liberal
application to an acre. There would
also be soda, lime and sulphuric acid in
considerable amounts. To look at this
experiment in another light, which will
make it palmer to some farmers, the
amount of nitrogen and phosphoric acid
would he equal to that contained in twen-
ty-three tons of fresh barn-yard manure,
without mixture of earth, water or
straw, while the potash would exceed that
in the manure so much that it would re-
quire an addition of II bushel of wood
ashes to furnish it. That also would be
called liberal manuring, as all these ele-
ments would be in form in which they
would do the most good when called upon,
and thus growing and blowing could be so
timed that the next crop would be ready
to take them up before they had washed
out of the soil or had wasted in any way
