ST. LOUIS COLLEGE ENTERTAIN
MENT,

Quite large number of the
friends of the st. Louis College as
sembled in the Exhibition Hall last
evening, by invitation, to witness a
Magic Lantern entertainment. A
considerable number of views Of the
Islands and miscellaneous scenery,
were produced, with clearness and
vividness. The intermissions were
pleasantly filled in by the orchestra
from the College Band, which dis
coursed some classic and popular
compositions, in a very creditable
manner. Among those present were
the Princess Liliuokalani, Hon. j.

THE DIGESTIVE PROCESS.
A Description Based OH the Researches OF
Nnted PhYSiologiSts.

Noted Psychologists.
The process of digestion is not yet
fully understood, even by the most
learned psychologists. Experimental
digestion differs not a little from nor
NAL digestion. In digesting meat in q
vessel, the pepsin, by means Of which
the process is carried on, remains I'M
changed in amount, while in the stom-
ach the glands are pouring out q fresh
supply:
Besides, as Prof. Chittenden, OF Yale
Uatve ..sity, says: at is always to be
borne in mind that the living alimen-
tary tract differs much from Il glass
beaker, and that. in the living subject
We have to deal with q complication OF
conditions not met with in artificial dl-
gestion."
The digestive secretiOns are saliva,
gastric juice and the pancreatic fluid.
The bile, which is sometimes reckoned
with these, simply n~eutralizes the
acidity of the contents of the stomach
when they pass into the. ~duodenum,
aids in enulsifying fat, and promotes
the peristalic motion of the in%testines.
The digestive principle in saliva IS
called ptyaline. This substance
changes starch into grape-sugar. 1t
is slightly alkaline, yet q strong alkall
arrests its action. This is one reason
why bread which contains too much
soda is unwholesome. Acid impairs
the digestive power of the saliva,
which is greatly weakened, for ex-
ample, b, an acid condition of the
mouth. With characteri2es some forms
of dyspepsia.
} As the normal condition of the
stomach, after the proper stomach di-
gestion begips, is an acid one, the dl-
gcstion of starch is arrested within
about five minutes after it reaches the
stomach. This fact suggests the inn
~portince- of slowly and thoroughly
masticathg bread and all starchy
|Apods. q
A principle called dioS!ase, obtained
from malt, nearly Identical with ptya-
line, is sold by druggists, and is high
ly recommended by some physicians;
but by other physicians it is regarded
as wholly useless for the purpose for
which it is prescribed. since it is de-
stroyed by the acid of the stomach.
The essential principles in gastric
juice are -pepsin and an acid. The
normal add is hydrochloric, otherwise
known as muriatic. The action OF
gastric juice is confined mainly to al
luminous foods. such as eggs, meat,
fish, peas, beans and cabbage. Al
kali binders gastric digestion.
In some forms of dyspepsia acids of
fermentation are found, giving rise 20
Intense acidity of the stomach. To
relieve this, many persons are in ths
habit of taking large quantities al
cooking soda. The relief is not only
temporary, but the evil is actually In
creased. -
The p~ancreatic juice c0nta7f1s a
principle resembling ptyaline, 5jut
much stronger than that substance,
and one resembling walk pepsiQ. 1t
also unites with bile iIsemukrfying
fat. 1t thus rounds out and completes
the digestive process Youths Com

HOW A GIRL BUYS SHOES.

Miss Minnie to a shoe store sped
To buy a pair of shoes;
al take slim 'threes,'" she smiling said
although I might wear 'twos.'"
The shoe man eyed her stockinged feet
OF size at least 'iiye-E,"
And knew that she could never put
1t in q number three"
And knowing, too, that he must please
He brought her "threes' and tried,
BY gettn e down on both his knees,
To squeeze her foot inside.
Miss Minnie doubled up her toes
And pushed with might and main;
Her face grew redder than a roser
Her struggle was in vain. \s
''How stranger" she gasped; "what ais she
shoe?'
The shoe man answered sweet:
'May 1 show, Miss, a -four to your
Warm weather swells the feet.'
He brought the 'fours' and using strength
He squeezed her feet inside.
ut looks Just horrid-see the length
And BREADTH" mad Minnie cried.
And then she hobbled to the door
And limped along the street,
In agony because she wore
Shoes smaller than her feet.
Though Minnie wears thCaoes with pridA.
And shows them everywhere,
Her poor, distorted feet must hide
Whenever they are bare.
For when it's time to 90 to bed
And give her pedals ease,
Ingrowing nails, corns, bunions red
And tangled toes she sees.
.
Give us the girl who keeps her feet
AS pretty as her hands,
In shoes adapted for the street
And not for Chinese lands.

NOTES ON S~UR-SOILING.
Claimed Effects of the Operation on Crops
and Climate.


and Climate
The capacity Of a mass of soil to
hold water depends on the number of
smaller pores in it, such as naturally
exist when it is kept well loosened up
by the implements of tillage. It is
therefore a reasonable plea, recently
made by Mr.. Blake for su5-soil plow-
ing, as possible protection from
parched soils, hot dry winds and the
perishing of crops tor want of moist
ure. He claims that while the opera
ton is much less costly than deep
blowing, since it can be done by one
horse following in the furrow after the
surface pillow, and does not, as does
the deep blowing, often leave the sur
face of the field covered with barren
sub-soil. 1t is as ~effectual in increasing
the storage capacity of the soil for
water; and for the very reason that
much more water flows into the soil
instead of over it and away into the
nearest brook, doing no good to the
land on which it falls, the quantity
available for storage, as well as the
capacity for storage, is much greater;
and he hardly needed to remind US
that the roots of the plants will go
freely to greater depths in a soil SO
treated, where they will give a more
lasting supply of water than if con-
fined by a hard and impenetrable sub
soil to the uppermost three or four
inches. In case this subsoiling should
be adopted by common consent over a
large area of country MI. Blake thinks,
moreover, that from thiA wide-reach-
ing reservoir of water near the sur
face so much moisture would evaporate
into the atmosphere as to greatly tone
down the effect. of hot, dry winds. so
apt to make SAD havoc with crops in
some parts of the country, and, in fact,
to make such winds usually impossi-

Rugs Healthier Than Carpets.

The hygienic disadvantages of car
pet-dust have been considerably over
rated. In the homes of wealthy Turks,
where lung diseases are almost I'M
known, every sitting-room and bed
is often furnished with the heav-
lest w@1ggien carpets, WHICH are rarely
removed oftener than once in three
years. Dust, under those circum-
stances, can hardly be avoided, but OF
such impurities our respiratory organs
seem able to rid themselves by a mere
sitting process, and the true lung
bane is, indeed, mot dust, but the
subtle poison of vitiated gases. The
sanitary statistics of European cities
prove that teamster work, and even
street-sweeping, are by no means in
compatible with longevity. Still, In
rooms where dust is apt to accumu-
late, movable rugs are, on the whole,
preferable to large carpets. which, in
deed, they have begun to supercede in
the model parlors Of many sanitary
establishments.-Felix Z. Oswald,

About Mules.

I an q breeder Of mules, aud | sell
dom see any thing in your paper in IA
vor of this excellent farm animal. 1t,
perhaps, would do little good for mo
to say any thing myself, for people
would say | had an interest. But
send you the following. which is from
the pen of Il careful observer, but not
from a mule breeder: The first cost of
the mule is less than that of the horse.
He is able TO earn his living at two
years old, and has eaten less than the
colt of same age. But, as the horse
is not put to work until three or four
years old, the odds are largely in ia
vor of his h~alf-brother, whose ances1
tors, on the sire's side. have always
lived on simple fare, and could mako
a meal on thistles, while the horse
could not labor without his grpD ard
fodder.
The ass family has been noted for
centuries for longevity and hardness.
The mule will not eat as much as the
horse; is not SO liable to disease. His
frugal living, and that of his ancestors,
may have something to do with that,
and also with the other fact that the
mule is not as as the hors2
and not SO liable to away and d@h-
age himself and smash up things gen
orally. The mule can not as many
kinds of work as we'll as the Morse. It
neGssA can be as pleasant a ROADSTER or
saddlo-nag. For drudgery and heavy
work. the hardness and patient power
of the mule has no equal in the hands
of the average teamster.
Judge Hinckley. of Massachusetts,
once a breeder of mules, and for fifty
years an owner of mules and horses,
gives his preference to mules for the
drudgery of farm work. One pair,
thirty years old, were particularly
serviceable, having outlived three gem
erations of warehouses, and while the
latter were often lameyor out of con-
dition, and sick, these mules never
were.
Another gentleman, who used mules
thirty years, testified that q l'lge-sized
mule will not consume more tDhssHree-
fifths to two-thirds as muclI food to
keep him in good order as wq be nee
essary for a horse performingfhe same
labor. The expense of shoeifg a mule,
the year round, does notIkceed one
third that of the horse. HIS hoofs be.
ing harder and more horny, aud SO
slow in growth, the shoes do not
require so frequent renewaL-Ccr.

Some of the Grand Things Accomplished

Some of the Grand Things Accomplished
Within FIFTY Years.
In view OF the almost incredible
progress Of The last two generations it
is not the best judgment which pro-
nounces the post electric system OF
transportation the dream OF an invcn-
tive raaniac. There is a freshness
about the proposition that we shall yet
send letters across the continent be"
tween the dawns of successive days
that takes the average breath away,
and the suggestion that passengers are
to be rushed through space at the rate
of two hundred miles per hour IS apt
10 alarm the apprehensiye. But the
proposition is not beyond the limits Of
possibility for all that. A few days
ago an experimental train upon a rail-
road in this State made Il run OF ninety
odd miles in about sixty minutes, some
portion of the journey being at the rate
of nearly two miles per minute. lfsteam
can accomplish such marvellous results
as this, why may not that greater
power, electricity, eclipse this stu
pendous record? The truth is that We
live in a phenomenal age. All the
ancient faiths concerning the develop
ment of material things are being
rudely jostled by the pushing Shout
ders of science. 1t is no longer the
dream of a visionary that we shall con-
verse with persons a thousand miles
away. Marked progress has been made
toward solving the problem of AERIAL
Mitigation, and although it is yet inn
possible to predict the ultimate out
come it is not insanity to believe that
air-ships may yet run counter to the
winds. The turning of a key illumi-
mates Il populous city, and new explo-
sives shatter i'll an instant obstacles
which were deemed immovable. There
are improvements TO the telegraph

THE SWINE PLAGUE.
Effective Ways of Preventing the Appear
ance of Hog Cholera.

Effective Ways of Preventing the Appear
ance of Hog Cholera.
To prevent cholera we must do one
or two things, namely: First, render
the system of the hog capable OF re-
sisting the germ; Or, second, keep the
germ at a proper distance. First, be
careful not to purchase hogs from an
infected district. If you purchase
from any region, be sure the cars used
for transportation have not been used
to carry infected swine. 1t is safer to
insist that the car be disinfected before
used. If the disease actually breaks
out in your herd remove all healthy
hogs at once to ONE higher and dryer
ground if possible. The writer recalls
a case where the healthy animals
were removed to an old lime kiln
Gas the most suitable place.,
which resulted in checking the
disease. 1t is better to remove the
healthy animals and leave the sick,
because the soil, litter. etc, become
infected and capable of transmitting
the disease. When an animal dies,
burn it on the spot, don't remove it to
some other lot, or wait until your
neighbor's dog eats part OF the carcass
and carries the disease home TO his
masters hogs. Be sure that the in
fected hogs do not have a chance to
drink from aay running water. II
