The Vital Functions.

It is well understood that the vital
functions are more or less processes of
combustion, and are subject to laws
similar to those which regulate the
burning of coal in our fireplaces. We
are apt to put on too much coal, or al
low the fire to be smothered in ashes.
The child pokes the fire from the top
to make it burn faster; but the wise
man pokes it from below to rake out
the ashes and allow free access OF OK
ygen. And so 1t is with the functions
of lie, only that these being less un.
derstood, many man acts in regard to
them as a child does to the fire. The
man thinks that his brain is not acting
because he has not supplied it with
sufficient food. He takes meat three
times day and beef tea to supply its
wants, as he thinks, and puts In pok.

of sherry or a nip from the brandy bot

and the more he continues to cram
himself with food, and to supply him
self with stimulants. the worse he
ultimately becomes, just as the child's
breaking the coal may cause tempo
rary blaze. but allows the fire to be
smothered in ashes. s.-Halrs journal oI

Ink stains on clothes. dip in milk and
wash as usual. Remove ink stains from
silver-plated ware by rubbing on paste
of chloride of lime and water; then
wash and wipe dry. Wash out common
oil stains in cold water; oil stains on
carpets can be removed at once by scat
tering corn meal upon them. also by
applying a hot iron through heavy
sheet of blottipg paper. Boiling new
milk viii take out most fruit stains;
dip the articles in several times; anoth-
er way is to dip in sour buttermilk and
dry in the sun; wash in cold water and
dry two or three times daily, For
raspberry stains, a mixture of weak
ammonia and water is best. Remove
stains from the windows by using di-
luted spirits of salt. To take out iron
mold stains, wet with milk and cover
with salt. The latter also rubs egg
stains from spoons. Wet grass stains
on white goods with water, rub in some
soft soap and as much soda as will ad-
here; let stand half an hour, then wash
in the usual manner. For stains on
teacups or tinware dip damp cloth in
common soda; rub briskly. then wash
and wipe dry. Stains on marble are
the most obstinate. Take OK gall, a
wineglassful of turpentine, and mix
into a paste with pipe clay; spread this
paste on the stained marble and let it
remain several days. Mildew is re-
moved by rubbing on common yellow
soap, then little salt and starch. Rub
all well on the article. and put out in
the sunshine; or, after rubbing on the
soap, scrape chalk over it and rub well;

1t Is Due to the Combination of Lime wleh
water.
In writing upon this subject G. r
Burnell SAYS: Until very recently IT
was held by most engineers and archi-
tects, by myself among others, that
the solidifcation of mortars took place
in consequence Of the absorption of
earbonic acid gas by the lime during
the process of crystalization; but it has
beer fairly objected to this theory that
the quantity of carbonic acid gas con-
tanned in the atmosphere which could
be brought into contact with a large
body of cement would not suffice to
saturate the latter.
The generally received opinion on
the subject now is that lime hardens
simply in consequence of the eombina-
ton with water which takes place dur
ing the shaking, and that the rapidity
of the setting. and the permanence Of
the newly-formed hydrate of lime, de-
pends upon its being combined with
some other salt; the pure hydrate OF
lime, IN fact, is soluble; the hydrated
silicate of lime is tolerably insoluble,
but it forms slowly; while the hydrated
double silicate of lime and alumina, or
of lime and magnesia, are practically
insoluble.
The facts actually observed seem to
confirm these views, and they certain
" enable US to account for not only the
different modes of setting observable
IN different lines, but also for some OF
the more gradual actions which take
place in that material. and the effects
reciprocally produced by the mixtures
of various ingredients.
In the case of the now generally
used Portland cements, and in that OF
underburnt lime, some very curious
phenomena may, however, be OBJ
served. which appear to Indicate that
the simple laws mentioned above do
not comprehend all the conditions
which may arise so that the above
theory itself must only be considered
as step toward the attainment of a
complete one of more general char
acter.
The phenomena to which thus al
Iude are connected with the obscure
subject of the chemical actions which
take place under the influence OF
high degrees OF temperature Boston

KISSING THE LADIES.

Once Very Popular English Mode Of
Polite safutatIon.
Nicolans de Bethlen, a pupil of DE-
Basire at Alba Jalia. visited England
during the winter OF 1864. and re-
lates the following in his ..Autobiogra-
ply: Being unaware of the fact
that it was customary IN England to
kiss the corner of the mouth of ladies
by way of salutation, instead of shak-
ing hands, as we do in Hungary, my
younger brother and / behaved very
rudefy on one occasion We were in
vited to dinner to the house of gem
tleman Of high rank, and found his
wife and three daughters, one of them
married, standing in array ready to
receive US We kissed the girls, but
not the married ladies. and thereby
greatly offended the latter, but Duval,
Ga French Protestant clergyman apol-
ogised for our bIunder, and explained
to rs that when salating we must
always kiss the senior lady first and
leave the girls and children to the
last; after dinner it was considered
Sufficient to kiss the hostess only in
recognition of the hospitality re-
cefved. 2 Thereafter, he adds, he and
all his travelling companions, with the
exception of one, who could not be
prevailed upon, complied most scru-
pulously with the rules of etiquette.
Bethlen moved in the best society in
London. He was received by Charles
