Sweating Feet.

There is an affection Of the feet which is
quite aggravating, and that is sweating.
If there is simply a tendency to perspir-
alton, frequent bathing and changes of
footwear will be especially necessary. In
such cases the addition of small quantity
of ammonia to the water will be found
beneficial, and if there is excessive tender
ness-wEich is very apt to be the case
weak alum water may be applied. An
application of cologne, bay rum or diluted
alcohol is also helpful. Powdered chalk
and starch are also recommended, es pecially
where there is tendency to chafe and
blister.
Where perspiration is attended with an
offensive odor the problem is more difficult
of solution. In addition to tho treatment
above Indicated the use of a disintectant
must be quite often resorted to, and for
this purpose either boracic acid or perman-
ganate Of potash should be used. An ounce
OF the former to quart of water will give
about tae right strength, aud of the per-
manganate 20 grains to the ounce of water
Of course only cotton hose should be worn.
The feet of these may be dipped in the
solution and dried before wearing, changing
daily or oftener, as circumstances may
require; but, perhaps, better way Is 10
wear cork nsoles which have been i'm mersed
in the liquid and dried, changing as
often as necessary. External cleanliness
is no relief for chronic malOdor of the feet,
but something may BE- gained by avoiding in
the diet such articles as fish, chess g, onions,
and others of like nature. In connection
with the detetic treatment the feet should
be bathed three times q week for an hour in
a decoction of ashes, to which stepped la urel
leaves and little turpentine have been
added. In addition to the morning and
evening bath, after the feet nave been wiped
dry. rub with a powder composed of a
drachm OF camphor, two ounces of iris
powder and eight ounces of powders d
starch. An application of oxide of zinc,
beginning with q weak solution and in-
creasiug che strength if necessary, is recon-
mended as a positive cure.
Where these simpler treatments fail, the
methods of M. Legoux, an eminent French
physician is commented. After bathing the
foot frequently in cold water during a
couple of days. the doctor paints them with
mixture composed Of ivs brahms of gly
cerine, two ounces Of solution of perchlo-
ride of iron, with forty drops of essence of
bergamot. The abnormal heat of the parts
is at once reduced. the perspiration dimin-
ishes- and with it the offensive odor.
Treatment twice day for week or two
will generally cure the most obstinate
cases.

directness about them sometimes. A group
of pretty girls were standing about him the
other day, wearing wavy colored sashes.

A bright aud pretty young Madison ave-
nue. girl whom l knew came back from Bar
Harbcr one morning last week. She had q
number of important missions; but she put
them all aside to 90 down town and bring
home from its temporary residence at the
faucier's King Charles spaniel, on which
all her affections were conferred, at least she
said So The meeting between the two was
au affecting one, and Miss Madison Avenue,
refusing all offers by the fancier to send the
dog home, determined to carry him herself.
1t seemed at first to her that 1t would
be most appropriate to convey the dog
home in cab. But she had neglected to
provide herself with more than sufficient
money for car fare. She mounted the Third
avenue elevated station, unaware of the
strict enforcement prohibiting the transpor-
tation of dogs, no matter how gentle their
breed. She got her ticket easy enough; the
agent couldn't see the dog. And size got
by the gate all right. the gateman beng
engaged at the far end Of the platform In a
conversation with q red-haired young
woman in the second story OF house close

Miss Madison Avenue stood ready TO
step abroad when train ran up to the
station. But the guard saw the dog, and
shut the gate in her face.
.'No dogs" he said sternly.
"But,n she pleaded, 'he's such little
one, and" the train was in motion.
She turned to the gateman. who was at
his post.

caps were examined, and their names, fol-
lowed by the initials, C. 5. A, were re-
Veaied on tie blades, lini0gs, etc
The full facts of the case, as detailed
ABOVE, were at once laid before Gen. Rose
Grams, and then Gen. Garfield telegraphei
IN reply 10 Inquiries by Col. Baird that no
such men were in the union army: that they
were undoubtedly spies from tne enemy.
AT midnight dispatch was received from
headquarters ordering Col. Baird TO con-
vene court martial instantly, and to hang
the two men before morning il found to be
spies.
The excitement within the limits of Fort
Granger was intense, as an eyewitness de-
scribes it to the writer. The court had little
else to do than to take the confession of the
prisoners. AT 3:25 a. m. Col. Baird tele-
graphed the startling news 10 headquarters
that Col. Williams was a first cousin of Gen.
Robert L. Lee, and adding: "Must hang

II" After the delay Of an hour telegram
from headquarters arrived, saying: 1.-THE
general commanding directs that the two
spies, If found guilty. be hanged at once"
These me sages are on record.
The first glimmer of daylight found men
at work constructing a scatfold. While
these preparations were going on, the con-
demned prisoners wrote letters to their
friends, giving directions as to the DISPOSE
ton of their worldly effects, and received
the sacrament from the hands of the Rev.
Robert P. Taylor, chaplain of the Seventy
eighth Illinois infantry. At o'clock Capt.
Alexander. in charge of the fearful pro-
ceedjngs, reported that all was in readiness.
The troops of the garrison and vicinity
were disposed In an open square around the
spot assigned for the execution. The prison.
ers were conducted through the pateWav of
the fort, across an open space of ground in
the rear, to a cherry tree, where two ropes
hung dangling within eight feet Of the
ground, ready for the enactment of the
heartrending scene. Two plain collins lay
in open sight. As Lieut.. Peters gaze fell
upon this dreadful machinery of death, a
strange terror seized him and he began to
weep.
DRY those tears and die like a man,
cried Williams
After the ropes had been adjusted Will
liams clasped Peters in his arms and said
"Good-by Peters, let us die like brave meo. "
The scene was one of an awful solemnity.
Many of those present averted their faces,
finding themselves powerless to gaze upon
the sorrowtul sight. In thirtyiminutes life
was pronounced extinct, aud the bodies
were cut down and placed in the collins,
dressed as they were.
Both Of the men wore gold lockets. Sc
cured by chains around their necks. That
worn by Col. Williams contained a portrait
Of his intended wife, with braid of her
hair. Lieut.. Peters Rocket held a likeness
of his wife. 1t was in accordance with the
wishes of the mon that these lockets and
portraits were buried with them. That
same day a single grave in the burying
ground Of the-town of Franklin received
the bodies of these two officers.
