TOBACCO SMOKING.

Understanding, like opium
smoking, is an unnatural vice, as
well as a filthy habit. 1t cannot
even be said in its defense, as in the
case OF liquor-drinking, that it is n
mere abuse of natural appetite; for,
at the best, it is an ingenious me-
chanical continuance for introducing
poison into the system, and dam
aging the powers of the brain. 1t
is wholly an acquired habit, and its
increasing prevalence is mainly due
to the mOnkeyish love of imitation
on the part of little folks who have
seen larger folks indulge in it. Its
most pcrllOuS form is found in cigar
ette-smoking by those who are still
in physical mmatur1ty. Now and
then an illustration of its perniciOus
influence stands out in startling
prominence; but it is the great sweep
of its evil, rather than its particular
instances of destructive power, that
is cause for prOfOundest alarm and
sorrow Just at present the news
papers are telling of lad, of sixteen
years, who died, on Wednesday of
last week. at St. JOseph's hospital,
Brooklyn, as victim OF this vice.
He was n chOrister in one of the
Brooklyn churches" He is said to
have been in the main g an exemplary
lad" his only marked fault lying III
his cigarette-smoking When brought
to the hospital, his very fingers were
jaundiced with the tobaCcO-smOke he
had taken into his system. His suf-
ferin0S were eXcruciatinp lust
before he died, he said pitifully: e"
wish that all boys who smoke cigar
cites could see me now" These
warning words could we'll be repeat
ed, by parents and teachers, to BOYS
whom they know to be in danger of
ruin; and they will have added force
when spoken by one who says" And
my example shall no longer be given
i'll favor of this vice. y Sunday

PINEsA PPLE FOR DIPHTHERIA =.

1t is said that nature has her own
remedy for every i'll to which flesh is
heir. Some of her remedies have not
yet been discovered, and some that
have been found out have not be
come generally known. Medical
science has long sought for a sOver-
eign remedy for the scOurge of child
hood, diphtheria, yet the cOlored
people of Louisiana, and perhaps of
other localities in the South, have
for years known and used a cure
which is remarkable for its simple
ity. It's nothing more nor less than
the pure juice of the pineapple.
The remedy is not mine" said a
gentleman, when interviewed ct
has been used by negroes in the
swamps down South for years One
of my children was down with diph-
liberia, and was in a critical cOndi-
ton. An old colored man who heard
of the case asked if we had tried pine
apple Juice. We tried it and the child
got well. | have known it tried in
hundreds of cases | have told my
friends about it whenever | heard of
case, and never knew it to fail.
You get a ripe pineapple, squeeze out
the juice. and let the patient swal-
low 1t. The Juice is of so corrosive a
nature that it will cut out diphthe-
rite mucus, and if you will take the
fruit before it is ripe and give the juice
to a person whose throat is well, it
makes the mucous membrane of his
throat sore. Among those who have
stried the cure on my recommended
ton l may mention Francis J. Ken
znctt, the board of trade man, whose
children were all down with diph-
liberia and were cured by this rem
edy." Mr. Kenneth confirmed the
statement [Chicago Tribune.

CUTTING Potato SEED.

Wherever potatoes are grown ex-
tensivelv for market the work of
cutting the seed for planting is an
arduous and often tedious one. 1t
requires a quick eye and good judg-
ment to cut the tubers so that the
needed number of buds or sets will be
on each piece and of as nearly uni
form vigor as possible. Two good
eyes on a set are enough. If there
are more strong eyes the hill will be
over-crOwded, and the result a great
many small potatoes. But with one
or two strong eyes on a set these
will take the lead, and the dormant
eyes may be all absorbed by the
others and not push into growth.
Some good growers plant whole
potatoes, and claim that with most
varieties thus planted only what are
needed for crop will grow. This
we think is a mistake, though it is
certain that not all nor even One-half
the buds on Il whole potato will
start if it is planted. But if all except
the weakest bud were dug out, that
will start strongly and make a
vigorous hill. Some years ago
potato planter was made which cut
the potatoes, before dropping them
into uniform sizes without regard to
the eyes This was said by those
who tried it to produce as good
crops with a few missed hills as or
binary methods. The work was
done in field, and cut potatoes had
no chance to heat from being piled
in heaps, as they often do when the
cutting has been done in the barn or
woOdshed, and the cut potatoes piled
in heaps or placed in barrels, as is
too often the practice Cut potatoes
must be spread as thin as possible,
to air to dry their surface,
but not to sunlight in a hot room,
as that sometimes Injuries them
