DR.. Paal GIbier, Director New York
Pasteur Institute, Tells What to Do.
Ladies' Home Journal.
Ifyou are unfortunate enough to be bitten by
a dog waste no time in sending for physician
But the wound requires instant attention.
First, wash it Immediately with clean, tepid
water. II this is not readily obtainable, clean
water Of any temperature will answer. This
will do until a physician arrives. II you
should be so situated that physician cannot
attend upon you, then act:
After flushing the wound with clean water,
apply, by means of glass dropper, power
ful antiseptic. l regard peroxide of hydrogen
(medicinsl) as the best compound.
Don't cauterize. In my opinion 1t is need
lessly painful operation, and is very seldom
accomplished soon enough to prevent the hy-
drophobic infection from taking place.
Having applied the antiseptic (peroxide OF
hydrogen) to the sore, take care not to re-
move the white foam that will be generated.
Let 1t remain until 1t disappears, which will
occur in few minutes This being done,
compress of absorbent cotton, soaked In the
peroxide of hydrogen, should be laid over the
sore, with an over-covering OF oiled silk.
Twice every day the wound should be dressed
in the same manner, with the exception that
the peroxide of hydrogen, instead of being
used full strength, should be Diluted half and
half, with clean water.

wound. Don't kill the animal unless it shows
evident symptoms of hydrophobia. Have it
placed securely in safe place. If, at the ex-
piration of one week, or not more than two
weeks, it has not shown any abnormal symp-
toms, the patient need not fear.
If, on the contrary, the animal sickens and
dies, the patient should be treated by the
Pasteur method as quickly as possible. The
sooner the better At the same time the con-
tents of the dogs stomach and portion. of
spinal marrow. in glycerine. should be sent to
the Pasteur Institute, No. It's West Tenth
street, New York City, where experiments
may decide whether the animal died with n.y.
drophobia or not.
Should the animal have been shot or other
| wise killed it is advisable that the patient
should submit at once to the Pasteur treat
ment, for two reasons: first, because it is
| harmless; second, because its efficacy has beer
| proved beyond doubt, over fifteen thousand
| persons having been inoculated since Pasteur's
| discovery.
In case the animal remains in good health
it is unnecessary that the patient submit to in
| oculation.

THE SLAVES REVENGE.
A Kind of Vengeance That Is Both Pc
culiar and Deadly.


A Kind OF Vengeance That is Both Pc
culiar and Deadly.
st. Louis Post-Dispatch.
In Hayti and Martinique the venom of the
terrible serpent indigenous to those islands,
the terrible fer de lance, has been often en-
ployed by the negroes to dispose of their
enemies. A horrible but we'll authenticated in
stance OF negro ingenuity and malevolence
is told in Martinique. A huge negro, recently
imported from the Guinea coast, had been
whipped by the order Of his master, one Of
the great planter princes of the island while
1t was under French rule. The victim made
no complaint, but medtated revenge.
By long search he found the lair of pair
Of serpents in the garden adjacent to the
house. Watching his opportunity he killed
one and dragged its body to the house,
through a window that was always open, and
into the bedroom of the beautiful daughter of
the planter. He dragged 1t to the bed, lifted
the coverings and coiled the reptile on the
sheet. When this was done he carried the
dead snake away and cast It into an adjacent
stream.
AS the night approached the serpent's mate
followed the trail, crept through the open
window, and to the bed OF the planters
daughter. The latter, half awake, made 6
motion to brush away the intruder. Instantly
the fangs were buried in her neck, and in 9
few hours she was a corpse

CYCLE AWAY, GIRLS.
Boston Pronounces ItAll Right If Your
Feet Are Not Large.

Boston Gazette.
Should a woman ride bicycle? This is
very perplexing question. and one that must
not be answered lightly. L read that clergy
man has decided that it is immoral for a
woman to ride bicycle, and l have no doubt
that this clergyman is very worthy person
and really sees immortality in this recreation;
but the true point of the question is whether
the fault be in the bicycle or in his own i'm
agination. According to Swift, nice man is
a man of nasty ideas; and | fear that many

themselves. Now, as to bicycle riding, | can
see no reason against women 1ndulging In 1t,
if their inclination runs in that direction.
From an aesthetic viewpoint, do not think
that a pretty woman looks any the prettier
when astride bicycle; the motions required
to keep the machine going are not graceful
motions, and women whose feet are In opposi-
ton to the canons of art should avoid the
vehicle; but / deny that any innately modest
woman can be immodest in anything that she
does. AS for women who are not innately
modest, they do not count. L an OF opinion
that women should be allowed to regulate
their own amusements.
In the first place, they will do 1t whether
they are allowed to or not and, in the next
| place, it is nobody's business but their own.
| man in these matters is too prejudiced;

| would forbid anybody else to do, and so would

his own especial likes and dislikes What man,
| for example, finds any pleasure in chewing

idiocy of the male sex as inspired genius?
| Now, because a clergyman would not ride to
church On bicycle, shall he deny the right to

is blameless in other respects, she will never

A PRESENTINTENT.
The Singular Expression of an Engineer
Thought to BE Dying.

The Singular Expression of an Engineer
Thought to BE Dying.
Cleveland World.
Charley Jenkins was an engineer on the B.
g. o. for years and he had many hairbreadth
escapes. His run was between Garrett, Ind,
and Chicago Junction, Ohio, and nearly every
body along the route came to know him per-
sonally. His friends could tell his engine every
time by the peculiar ''toot," and whenever the
engineer was in sight there would be wave of
the hand as recognition of friendship. His
engine, the 720, was the best on the division,
and II a fast run was to be made Jenkins and
the 720 were sure to be on the call board for It,.
One day the old engineer was taken Ill, and
for weeks he fingered on his bed, when it
seemed that only thread held him on to life.
He was sadly missed along the route, and the
peculiar 'toot' of the whistle was heard no
more, for although old 720 was kept running
there were other hands at the throttle.
The crisis of his illaess came. The family
surrounded the bed and watched with breath
less eagerness for any sign of a change.
The stiffness of the room was oppressive.
Nothing could be heard save the regular,
heavy breathing of the sick engineer.
Suddenly he arose on his elbow. He stared
wildly around, and his eyes looked liked a
madman's Then he set up in bed, clutched
an imaginary sheet of paper, and gasped
"Tifin; train five; engine seven twenty; pre-
pare to meet thy God
He sank back exhausted and fell into 8
quiet, easy sleep. When he awoke he was
on fair way to recovery, but by that time
the news had reached the place that terri
BILE accident had happened; that No. 5 had
collided with a freight; that engine 720 wa
wreck, and that the engineer and fireman
were dead.
Charley Jenkins insists that he had a pre-
| sentiment from heaven.

INTELLIGENT FOR A QUEEN.

AnImaginative Correspondents Account
of Visit to Victoria.
Correspondence Lowell Arena.
We were in time to catch the Northern
freight, and got off at Balmoral, where the
Queen and brass band were waiting for us.
Her Majesty was very kind and gracious, and
/ sat in the seat with her while Argyle rode
with the coachman, SO that he could see the
scenery better. She chatted very pleasantly
with me, and told me her boy Billy of Ger
many was coming over to spend his vacation
with her, and told me to come down and take
in the picnic. / told her my trunk hadn't ar
rived from Glasgow yet, but she said that
didn't matter; could borrow generals suit
from Wales and go that way. We arrived at
the castle after about an hours drive, and
found it very pretty place indeed. We had
supper in the blue room in quiet way, and
noticed that Her Majesty had weakness for
baked beans and corned beef.
Her equerry told me afterward that the
beans were cooked as special compliment to
me, as l registered In Glasgow from Boston.
Her Majesty / found rather an intelligent
person for Queen, and though she admitted
that she did not read the Lowell papers, she
was pretty well posted for woman of her
opportunities. After supper we sat on the
piazza and talked on things generally. She
said Queens job wasn't all 1t was cracked
up to be- The salary was good enough, but
deal, and had to sit up late nights signing
bills and campaign literature. She said she
was glad she did not have to be elected every
four years, for she thought the remarks of the
opposition press and the stump speaking and
torch-light business would break her all up
She asked me what was good for rheumatism
and If had read her books and If the Ameri-
can people didn't think Wales was a little
gay. / answered her with tact and che bade
me goodnight, after explaining to me how to
ring the bells IL / wanted hot water to shave
during the night. bowed myself out with
much grace and went down back of the
stables to smoke, for tobacco is not allowed
in the palace after O'Clock. / had a chat
with Argyle and the equerry and they admit
ted that Balmoi al was dull and hardly fin de
steele. When Her Msjesty's rheumatism was
bad, which 1t was most all the time, there
were hot times in the palace. They were
glad had come, because Her Majesty wanted
TO make a good impression on America II
case any Of her boys and girls might have to
emigrate and want job. We then wen
down in the cellar for bottle of the Queen'l
own and after that retired.

PRODUCING AERATED WATER.
Natural Carbonic Acid Gas Brought from
Eifel Volcano.
Chambers Journal.


Chambers Journal.
In the neighborhood of the extinct E!fel
volcano near the Rhine, in Germany, are
found springs of mineral waters which give
off large volumes of natural carbonic acid
gas.
This natural gas becomes thoroughly puri-
fed In passing up through some two or three
hundred feet OF water, which, of course
means considerable pressure upon the gas
This gas, being duly collected on the sur
face, is subjected by means OF pumps to
the pressure OF 500 or 900 pounds per square
inch, condensing it into clear, transparent
liquid. which is forthwith stored In steel or
wrought iron cylinders OF special construction
and exceptional strength.
The manufacture of aerated water Is now
readily carried on by means OF these tuDes,
which are easily transported, In manner at
once simple, rapid, and inexpensive, no
machinery whatever being required.
The apparatus consists simply OF closed
copper vessel OF any required size, nearly
filed with ordinary pure water and con-
nected with tube OF compressed gas
On turning tap on the table the liberated
gas rushes under high pressure into the cop
per vessel, becomes thoroughly incorporated
with the water, and produces forthwith the
aerated mineral water which is SO largely con-
sumed and so Justly appreciated at the pre-
sent day.
The aerated water can now be drawn on loi
immediate consumption or bottled for future
use. Mineral water thus produced is stated
| TO be entirely free from any flavor OF chemicals
sometimes discernible IN that which has beer
prepared from artificial carbonie acid gas.

but the day will come when all these
things will be remembered against the

without losing money why not take it
off altogether and let someone put on a

will accommodate the people instead of
leading them to depend upon it and
then stop when it is most needed

Snipes & Kinersly's last Saturday night
were probably the largest affairs of the
kind ever held in this city Garretson's
store was SO full that it seemed as if
hundreds hadgto go away without get
ting in. At one time no less than 152
ladies' were packed in the room, though
how they got there or got out alive after
they were there it is impossible to tell.
Mr.. Garretson gave away 1877 tickets
which were all put in basket and
thoroughly shaken up and at conven-
lent time Miss Grace Marden was blind
folded and drew out the lucky number
20, which was held by Miss Jennie
Marden, which entitled her to hand
some silver bon bon basket. The larger
store Of Snipes & Kinersly was at times
packed to the door. One hundred and
twenty-five souvenirs in the form of
handsome frosted figures were given
away but this number certainly did not
go half way. As an evidence of the rush
of ladies that gathered here it may be
mentioned. that the janitor for the night,
handsome young bachelor carpenter,
named William McCrum of this city
was driven by the presssof ladies cut of
the hack door about s o'clock and was
not able to get back again for four solid
hours. No such crowd ever gathered at
an opening before during the thirteen
years experience of the firm. Both
stores exhibited displays in their res
-pective, lines that we're credit to the
city. One of Snipess& Kinersly's win
dows was filled with an endless variety
of japanese curios, the other with hand
some dressing cases. The Immense
ranges of show cases stretched on each
side of the store were filed with every
thing in the line of useful and orna-
mental brio brac that art could diverse
or good taste suggest. Here was a case
filed with all kinds of old and new
parlor games and counters. Yonder
another filed with perfumery or fancy
toilet articles. One special feature of
the evening was the art exhibit, contain
ing handsome copies of the works of the
old masters done by hand and at reason
able rates, and charming collection of
photographs of Oregon scenery of which
this house has the control for all East
ern Oregon. These. Oregon Scenes are
the handsomest little souvenirs we have
ever seen in that line.
Mr.. Garretson's windows and show
cases were filled with silver and plated
ware in everything useful and orna-
mental conceivable from gents satin
finish silver shaving mug to a silver tea
set, gold and silver watches in endless
variety of style and finish, every con-
eeivable style of brooch and pin and
ring and ornaments till one could well
feel the force of Mr.. Garretson's state
ment, 81 try to keep everything in my
line that lady or gentleman is likely
to need or DESIRE"
