swelling. was treated as poison oak cases
usually are, and everything was healed up.
About the same tine the following spring,
1872, my feet became sore again, as at first,

brought back the same condition of the dis
ease, only each time it became more dis

FOR PURE FOOD.
The San Francisco Board of Health Notify
Consumers Which Is the Best Baking
Powder.
San Francisco Chronicle.

The Board of Health can engage in nc
more laudable occupation than the exam
ination of our food supply and the instruc'
ton of the public as to those articles it finds
to be pure and wholesome, and which,
therefore, consumers should use.
There are quantities of baking powders in
the market to use which is certain detri-
ment to the health of the consumer. They
are made from alum, or improperly COM
pounded from other chemicals, so that they
leave strong alkaline residuum in the
food. Many of these powders, having been
prohibited from sale in the East, have been
collected by their manufacturers from the
dealers with whom they were left on COM
mission, and shipped to the Pacific Coast.
The public knows nothing about their
quality except what it reads in the news
paper advertisements. In the effort to
gain foot-hold in this market INSCRIPTIONS
manufacturers of these cheaply made, low
grade baking powders have INDUCED in ex-
travagant statements both with reference
to their own and other brands, claiming
the most improbable endorsements for their
goods and denouncing the brands best
known and longest used upon the Pacific
Coast.
The action of the physicians of the Board
OF Health, therefore, in giving the public
reliable, authoritative information as to the
brand of baking powder to be used to Sc
cure the most economical and wholesome
food is most valuable and timely.
The chief brands of baking powders sold
upon the Pacific Coast were collected and
analysed by Messrs Thomas Price & Son,
the we'll analy teal chemists of San
Francisco. They found the strength or
leavening gas measured at 1000 F. of the
brands named as follows:
NAME. Leavening Gas,
Cubic inches per OF.
ROYAL I9l.
Giant 40.
Golden Gate l23.
Dr. Prices ll6.
Pioneer los.
The general usefulness of a baking
powder depends upon the quantity of
leavening gas it gives off. As these
powders are retalled at about the same
price, the most economical is also ap-
parent.
The opinion of the GARD of Health is as
follows:
We, the members of the Board of Health
of the City and County of San Francisco,
cordially approve and recommend the
Royal Baking Powder. 1t is absolutely
pure and healthful, composed of the best
ingredients, of the highest strength and
Oh lracter.
In our judgment, 1t is impossible to make
purer Or stronger baking powder than the
Royal.

THE DEAF SOLDIER.
Why He is Entitled to Larger Pension
Than He Now Receives.

Why He is Entitled to u Larger Pension
Than He Now Receives.
From private letter written by
Judge John p. Altgeld, of the Supreme
Court of Chicago, we are permitted to
extract II few remarks on the just rea-
son why deaf soldier should be pen
stoned more nearly equal with others
possessing disabilities no greater: 81
can not frame an argument in support
of what is self-evident, When / have
said twice one is two / can add moth
ing. That deaf man is permanently
disabled for work and is afflicted about
as severely rs it is possible for n mortal
to be and live, seems to me to be so self
evident that | can not understand how
anybody can think differently. In these
times men who have TO work for wages
and who are in possession of all of their
faculties find it extremely hard TO get
work enough TO make living. In
fact, there are in all large cities multi
tudes of men who are honest. industri-
Gus and in possession of all their facul-
ties who yet can not find employment
at low wages. Now there are but very
few kinds of labor that Il deaf man can
work at at all, as II rule, impossible for
him to get employment at these. In
those isolated cases wherein he is given
something TO do for n short time it is
usually II matter of charity, instead Of
being given cold potato at the rear
door, he is allowed to work for few
weeks and is then given u pittance.
Charity, whether doled out in shop or
given in poor-house, is equally hui
initiating and degrading TO n sensitive
nature, and most brave men are sensi-
tive. 1t seems to me that any man who
can look on with composure while the
greatest Government on earth permits
those who imperiled their lives to save
it from destruction and preserved our
institutions, now to become objects of
charity, is unworthy the citizenship of
free country. There was time when
$50 per month would keep II man de-
Gently, but that is not the case now, and
why should n pension not correspond
with the cost of living. Then in di-
tion to the inability to earn living
there is the perfect isolation of the deaf
man from his family, from his friends,
and from the world. For him there is
no intercourse and no companionship.
Wife or child may be dear to him, but
no sound from either can gladden. his
heart. He must live by himself; must
go through the world alone. 1t seems
hard to conceive of IL greater aflliction
or OF case in which the Government
should be more considerate. Amer

SNAKES IN BUNDLES.
A Farmers Early Spring Experience Il
Sullivan County, n. Y.

n sprung
Sullivan County, n. y.
Inthe eastern part of Sullivan County
many sections of the country are COM
paratively wild, and bears, wildcats,
red deer and poisonous reptiles abound,
but here, in the western part, the will
derness has been turned into a garden,
and the wild animals that used to run
at large hereabouts have retreated to
more favorable quarters.
The good old hunting days of former
times are dwclt upon lovingly by an
cient nimrods here, and, in fact, Jeffer-
sonvilleites have just been dying for
n sensation such as eastern Sullivan
County people continually enjoy.
During one of the warm, sunshiny
days, recently, Aaron Bentley, residing
near here, made preparations for n
"leetle spring plantin'." Bentley's
son was set TO work to remove some
big stones out of II field before plowing.
The boy was about to roll over II big
rock, when he suddenly set up n
screaming and ran pell-mell toward
his father and II couple of field hands.
"A snake! snakc"' shouted the lad.
'And it was ten feet long" he con-
tinued.
The three men, followed by the ooy,
ran toward the spot designated, and
sure enough, not only one, but three
immense snakes lay summing them
selves near the rock. Two of the rep
tiles were rattlers, but they We're in Ii
queutly harmless.
The third snake appeared to be OF
the black species, though it was curl
ously mottled and had a tremendous
head. The three snakes were killed
and the big stone was rolled away.
Underneath was found great, Shiny,
hali-dead- -and-alive mass of snakes.
They were laced and interlocked to-
gether in II curious and artistic net
work. AT least six different varieties
of reptiles were taking their winters
sleep peacefully together.
The warm, spring-like days. had re-
viviaed many of them, and when dis
turbed by blows and poles they set up
n lively kissing and wriggling. Mr.
Bentley says that not less than hun
dred snakes were killed, and his word
is considered "of great account here.
One OF the farm hands called Jake
is willing to 'swar ON me heart" that

SALT AS SEASONING.
When Given In Small Quantities 1t is
Great neneflt to Swine.

When Given Ia Small Quantities 1t Is OF
Great neneft to Swine.
Many persons, who all their lives
have been more or less familiar with
swine, have vague idea that salt acts
as poison to II hog, young or old.
Others, however, of more intelligence
know that as n seasoning 1t is relished
by and beneficial to swine as well, and
in somewhat the same degree as to
man. Taken in unreasonable quanti-
ties, salt like many other useful arti-
cles Is certainly productive of bad re-
suits. II Is safe to say that swine needs
salt. What Tennessee man says OF
his plan of giving IL TO them is this
"Salt itself Is too strong for hogs,
mixed with ashes it is still more so;
they will eat but very little in that
way. My plan OF sailing is one gallon
of salt to about two gallons OF strong
wood ashes put In tight trough, then
put in three or four gallons of water.
DO not put in any thing 10 encourage
tham to eat 1t, as they will eat enough
of 1t any way; besides, II sows in farrow
eat too much they will sometimes
abort Keep your mixture by your
hogs all the time and you will not have
many sick ones, II any. have been
using this mixture about fifteen years,
and have not had a sick hog except a
few times. when this treatment was
neglected. My opinion is that hogs
have more disease from worms In the
bowels than all other causes together;
this way OF sailing cleans the bowels Of
them. "--Weslern SwinehGrd,

DIVIDING The CIDER.


Family DinicuIty.
Among the prisoners captured ut
Port Hudson was one who formerly
lived In Missouri He told me story
too good to lose. Near whore he lived
was family of poor whites, father and
son, both married and living in tho
same house, One fall they managed to
get enough together to buy barrel OF
cider. On tho way home the question
came up how to divide 1t. Finally they
decided that ono should tap one end OF
tho barrel and draw his half from that
while the other should draw his share
from the other end. This plan worked
well for time, but Mt last the old man
mistrusted that the son was stealing his
cider, so tho father hid himself to
watch. Soon the son came to get n
mugful. He drew n little from his end,
then went around to the other end and
filed up. This was too much for the
old man. He came out from his hiding
place and gave the young man thrash
ing. This created row and both
started for the nearest lawyer, one to
have his son arrested for stealing, the
other to have his father arrested for as
sault, After reaching tho Office by
little persuasion they concluded to leave
the matter to the lawyer how they
should settle it. After swearing them
and listening to their stories the law
yer, after mature deliberation, decided
that the old man should work for him
(the lawyer) four weeks rs fine foi
assaulting the son, while the young
man should work for the lawyer three
weeks as fine for stealing the cider.
Both paid their fine and both were
satisfied. Veterans Advocate.

PARKER's ARMY COFFIN.
The Madcap Freak OF n Popular Membe
of General Hnncock's STAFF

Inc Mhucap freaE OF fOpular MeinDer
of General Hancoek's StaT.
A veteran of the regular army, while
in reminiscent mood the other day,
said to Washington writer for the
Boston Traveller:
The widest madcap of the Federal
army, during the late war of the rebel
lion, was Dwight Parker. who was on
Hancock's sta1f. Brave as lion,
handsome as picture, he was the ideal
soldier. Dwight got furlough after
he had served Il long time at the front,
and behaved himself until his arrival in
Philadelphia. There he proceeded to
'!naugurate howl, as you boys say
now; but we used' to call it II spree.
He just climbed all over the town. II
there was any resident who didn't know
he was in the city IL wasn't his fault
Ho did the best he knew how, and
Dwight wasn't man OF mean abilities
in that line, either
fright in the middle OF this spree he
went to the undertakers and got meas
ured for n coffin. This, with plate
bearing his name, with blank space
left for tho date OF his death, was for
warded to the Continental Hotel.
Dwight was very proud of it and cele-
brated it in manner peculiar to him
self, When his furlough had almost
expired he packed up his baggage and
his coffin and started for the front.
Hancock and the officers OF the staff
were at first inclined 10 look upon
Parker's coffin as something ghastly,
but every thing went in the army in
those days, and finally all hands got SC
accustomed to seeing the thing around
headquarters that they began to use II
as u sort OF waste-paper receptacle.
What became of IL? Well, don''
remember Parker died several years
ago on Governors Island, New York,
bu. he had a brand-new coffin on that
occasion for saw 1t, ] guess Parker
was the only soldier on other side who
carried his coffin with him during the
war;
