The Lost Atlantis.

For many centuries there has been tradi-
tion of long lost island called Atlantis
The Greek geographers located it in the
Atlantic Ocean, west Of the northwest part
Of Africa and the Pillars of Hercules. The
sea-kings of Atlantis are said to have in
vaded Europe and Africa, and to have been
defeated by the Athenans.
All the legends agree that 1t was vast
island, of inexhaustible resources, and in
habited by a race Of superior people. For
ages this island has existed only in legendary
lore. But now, when the light of modern
research is turned full upon the investiga-
tion, behold the lost Atlantis at our very
doors.
So the bigoted medical fraternity goes
cropping about in the dark, seeking for an
Atlantis or Esculapius, when if they would
investigate, they would behold the lost At
limits at their very door. With their ancient
text book, case of physic, a paper in their
waistcoat giving them license to practice, ,e3-
pertinent and dose with their injurious drugs,
cauterize and perform unnecessary acts, with
no person or laws to hold them accountable,
they continue their bigoted, unjustihed prac-
tice, staring into vacancy, and imagining
that they see in themselves an Esculapius
Wrapped in ancient bigotry, they are cry
ing out against all improvements that have
been made in medical science They de-
nounce any new idea advanced by laymal
why!
Because humanity will not be benefted'
Not at all, but because their specialiSm did
not make the discovery.
Yet they concede that there is no remedy
known to their ma eria nedica that will cure
an advanced kidney malady and the diseases
arising therefrom.-although many Of them
know from crowning proof that Warmers
Safe Cure will-but unscrupulously treat
symptoms and call them a disease, when in
reality they know they are tut symptoms
A few of the moro honest physicians ad-
NIT that Warmers Safe Cure is valuable
remedy, and great blessing to mankind, but
say, in so many words, when asked why they
do not prescribe 1t, that they cannot, accord
ing to their code.
Nevertheless, the world is fast becoming
satisfied that tae cure for kidney and liver
diseaseI in whatever form or condition, has
been discovered. and there is no doubt but
what Warmers Safe Cure and its fame will
live long after such bigotry as we have in
stanced is dead and buried.
The late eminent physician and writer, DR..
j. G. Holland, published in Scribner's
MONTHLY, and showed his opinion OF such big
otry, and no doubt was satisfied that Atlantis
might possibly be discovered in proprie-
tary medicine, when he wrote editorially as
follows:
'Nevartheless, it is a fact that many Of the
best proprietary medicines OF the day were
more successful than many of the physicians,
were first discovered or used in actual medi-
cal practice. When, however, any shrewd
person, knowing their virtue, and foreseeing
their popularity, secures and advertises
them, then in the opinion of the bigote1, all
virtue went out Of them."

Extinct Animals.

The goal of absolute extinction has
already been reached by two species of
mammals and three of birds, all of which
undoubtedly inhabited the planet with
in the last fourteen centuries:
The Schelk (akin to the urus of
Northern Europe), the Kamtchatka sea-
cow, the dodo "a sort of short legged
ostrich, found on the island of Mauritius
as late as 169O), the parrot of the Nor
folk Islands and the w.ngless ank (Alca
impennisl, a bird once frequenting all
the coasts of the Northern Atlantic, but
which has been "seen no more" since
1855, when the last survivor is said to
have been killed on a cliff of the F Faroe
Island.
The ibex. once abundant in all the
highlands of Northern Europe, is now
found only in the almost inaccessible
summit regions of the Piedmont Alps,
and the only surviving specimens of the
anerochs enjoy p-ecarious respite in
the Russian game preserve of Bialowitz.
The American mountain goat is get
ting so scarce that many old hunters of
the northern Rockies have never had
chance to see living specimen, and the
list of doomed animals includes the
chamois, the Corsican moufflon, the
bustard, the cassowary, the elk, and
probably the American bison, unless the
tsbuffalo farm" at Garden City, Kan,
should prove decided success.-Drake's

An Humble but True Hero.

At an obscure station IN Northern
Iowa three years ago there were two
ladies awaiting to take train. A tramp,
drunk enough to be ugly and quarrel
some, whose hand, like Ishmael's, was
against every man, came in and amused
himself by directing insulting remarks to
them. The operator was receiving an
order to hold the coming train, and did
not hear. AS he passed through the
waiting-room to put out the red flag the
ladies appealed to him. He ordered the
fellow out, and receiving abuse in return
attempted to push him through the open
door when the brute drew a concealed
dirk and stabbed him. The operator,
knowing it to be his death wound, made
no outcry, had no word of reproach for
his murderer, no repining at his own
fate, sent no last message to the loved
ones whom this towards act had bereft.
He simply extended the flag which he
still held to the ladies, and saying, "Put
it out" fell lifeless at their feet.-Ninne-
uDoLis IriJun3. ..

Nantha IntOyiCatIOn.

In several large factories in Germany,
especially in India rubber factories and
establishments for cleaning India rubber,
peculiar morbid symptoms have lately
been observed. The faces of many of
the girls who had not left the factory
during the day, became flushed and
swollen in the evening, and they could
not walk steadily. An examination of
their clothes and of the workrooms for
brandy, opium, etc., yielded no result,
till an accident led to the solution of the
mystery. In these factories naptha is
used IN large quantities, and kept in
special boilers closed against the air.
The girls had succeeded in getting keys
to the boiler valves, and soon learning
the intoxicating effects of naptha, were
in the habit of Sinking unobserved to
the reservoirs to inhale the poison, which
threw them into state of happy forget
fulness and con niured up thousand sweet
dreams of wealth, splendol, happiness,
etc. The secret was revealed by a
novi e. who made too deep an inhala-
ton and fell into hysterical convulsions.

The cabbage plant louse is often de :
structive, and so numerous as to cover
the whole plant and hinder its develop
ment, or at least seriously effect its
market value. Again, the Pyrethrum
powder busted from hand bellows has
been found the most efficacious remedy,
as it reaches more than the sprinkled
insecticides.
The cabbage root worm is the larVal
stage of fly about the size of common
house fly. 1t is white maggot, pointed
at the head, footless, the body gradually
increasing in size toward the hinder
end, where it is squarely cut off. When
full grown it is about one-third OF an
inch in length. For remedy it IS
recommended to dip the roots OF the
plants in compound of one part kero-
sene emuls: :on to twelve or fifteen parts
of water at the time of planting.
Club root rarely or never attacks cab
bages planted in virgin soil, but is most
common in soils which have been occu-
pied by cabbages in previous seasons.
For this disease the various insecticides
have been tried without any good effect.
When once the fungus has entered the
root there is probably no remedy. AS a
preventive, chloride of lime is recon-
mended. Make a solution with not quite
enough water upon the powder to dis
solve all Of it and thoroughly stir IT.
then, taking one part of this solution to
two or three parts of water, apply to the
roots of the cabbage at planting and to
the soil Immediately about the roots

Medicinal Uses of Turpentine.


For medicinal purposes turpentine
may be employed in many ways. For
pain in the stomach, bowels, kidneys
or bladder, dip large piece of flannel
in hot water and after wriDgrng it,
saturate it with turpentine. Lay this
cloth on the seat of pain and cover with
another piece of flannel or towel. If
the patient be in great pain, at the end
of twenty minutes or half an hour wiring
the tianne! from hot water again and
saturate it with turpentine. It is rare
thing that more than the second applica-
tion has to be made. In severe cases it
is better to apply the turpentine with
lard rather than hot water. Mix the
turpentine in the proportion of table
spoonful to an equal quantity of lard and
spread on the flannel. This preparation
can be kept on for hours without dis
turbing the patient, whereas that made
with hot water will, as rule, have to
be removed in half an hour or less time.
Where bloating of the bowels occurs from
accumulation of gas, ten drops OF tur-
pentine on lump of sugar or teaspoon
full of granulated sugar, taken internally
three doses in twelve hours-will afford
relief. In severe cases the dose is often
as large as teaspoonful; but this should
be only by q physicians advise. In
bloating of the bowels in dysentery, half
teaspoonful of turpentine in dose of
castor-oil will relieve the patient.

Mulberry and Windbreak.

The Russian mulberry IS so good q
|nurseryman's tree-so easy to raise even
lin the most trying climates, aud so
pretty in leaf-that it is still doomed as
valuable for extensive planting. Little
lis said now about the fruit, which is de-
|spicable, or the wood, which amounts to
nothing; but the twiggy trees are
|vaunted for windbreaks. They are too
eagerly eaten off by cattle when small,
and too bare in winter to fully suit this
purpose. Evergreens make the best
|windbreaks, and if they become open
below, some underbrush of barberry,
purple willow or other plants that cattle
let alone, will make perfect and endur-
ing shelter from storms, summer and
winter. Young seedlings of spruces,
|arbor vitas, white pines and other ever
greens cost very little, and if set out two
Feet apart convenient to their intended
bite, and protected from cattle and weeds
till three or four feet high, they can be
|transplanted entire and with certainty
|of success.-Neao York ITa6une.

Renewing Satin Ribbons.

"Satin-fnished ribbons can be washed
and dressed over to look almost as fresh
and bright as new. Take lukewarm
water with hard soap and dip the ribbons
up and down, stripping them smoothly
with the fingers until the soil is removed;
then rinse in pure water in which little
granulated sugar is dissolved. Be care
full and not rub the ribbons so as to give
a wrinkled look by creasing. After
rinsing lay soft cloth on the table and
draw the ribbon on the wrong side back
and forth till nearly dry; then iron with
a cool fatiron on the wrong side, and
you will have some nice clean ribbons,
with no cost of any amount, that will
keep fresh as long as new ones. Take
care of the pennies and the dollars will
take care Of themselves. ."-Nea0 Yorh

Crossing With Wild Turkeys.

The turkey is naturally the most shy
of all our domestic fowls, as indeed 1t
has been most recently reclaimed from
| the wild state. The hen loves to make
lher nest and rear her tender brood with
as little disturbance from raan as posi-
|ble. The domestication process has at
fected the hardness of the turkey, and
Its size has been diminished by continu-
Gus breeding from small. or immature
stock. In the wild state the dominant
male will always be the largest and best
| bird in the flock, and will insure the
|perpetuation of his excellences. 1t is
therefore a good plan for turkey breed
ers to occasionally mix their breed with
Ia strain of the wild variety. This i'm
proves both hardness and size-Eoston
