FRUITS OF CO.EDUCAIION.

The good effects of co-education
are sometimes very marked. DR..
Stephen Smith graphically describes
the sudden change produced by the
admission of Elizabeth Blackwell to
the Geneva Medical College Of New
York in lS4S. lie says:
The class, numbering about $50
students, was composed largely OF
young men from the .neiphboring
towns, They were rude, bois,erous
and riotous boyonl comparison. On
several occasions the residents of the
neighborhood sent written protests to
the faculty, threatening to have the
college indicted as q nuisance If the
disturbances did not cease. During
lectures it was often almost impossible
TO hear the professors, owing to the
confusion. One morning n
lady entered tho lecture-rocm with
the professor. She was quite small oil
stature, plainly dressed, appeared
diffident aud retiring, but had a firm

MOON SUpERSTIIlONS.
Some OF tho Absurd Beliefs Entertained
Alb ,ut Our Satellite.

Ab,n Our Satellite.
..sotes and Queries
Farmers used to put great dea
Of dependence Oh the moon. The,
planted crops, built worm houses, put
on single aud clapboard roofs, killed
hogs, hung meat, cut timber, chopped
weeds and traded horses according to
its phases.
Almost any old-time farmer will tell
you that worm fence built in the
light of the moon and ascending node
will worm around and finally fall
down. II you plant potatoes during
similar phases they will al! go to the
tops and the tubers will be small and
wa,ery. This is the time, however,
to plant cucumbers, especially when
the sign is in tie arms.
The carpenter of former times would
not think of putting shaved single
roof on building in the dark OF the
moon, because the shingles would curl
NJ, pull the halls gu, and soon leak
like sieve. Neither would he cut
timber for house, nor would no paint
it until tho sign was right.
Your grandmother or veteran aunt
can tell you that when hogs were
killed in the wrong tine of tho moon
he slices of ham would shIivcl up
more than half, and fitch would all
fry away, leaving only small crack
lings. Apples or any kind OF fruit
died in the wrong time were certain
to mould or get wormy, and cider
vinegar refuse to become sharp.
1t was to the moon that the farmer
looked for indications Of the weather.
If the new moon lay well on its back
it was sign Of dry weather, but if i,
tipped up to such an extent that a
shot pouch wouldn't hang on its lower
horn. you might depend upon the
waters pouring out.
The time OF changing had great
to do with the weather. but there was
a lack OF agreement upon this point.
1t was generally conceded, however,
that a change before noon, or before
midnight, indicated fair weather. A
circle OR halo around the moon was a
sure sign of rain. and the number of
stars visible within the circuit indi.
Gated the number of days before the
rain would come.
The health, growth and develop
ment of children and animals were
supposed to be Influenced by the
moon. II the sign was right a. the
time of the birth they would be we'll
formed and intellectual, but if it was
wrong there was no telling what sor,
LOT creatures they would become.

and determined expression Of face.
Her entrance into that bed!am Of con-
fusion acted like magic upon every
student. Each hurriedly sought his
seat, AMI the most absolute silence
prevailed. For the first time a lee
ture was given without the slightest
interruption, and every word could be
heard as distinctly as if there had been
but single person in the room. The
sudden transformation Of this class
from a band OF lawless despsradoes to
gentlemen. by the mere presence of a
lady. proved to be permanent in it's
effects. A more orderly class of med
ical students was never seen than
this, and it continued to he 80 to the
close Of the term.

TEACH THE GIRLS TRADES.

Mary A. Allen, NJ. d., speaking OF
the wisdom of teaching every girl
some trade or business, says: 1.-THE
knowledge acquired in the trade or
profession may not be actually needed
in the home life, but the mental quail
tiles developed by the requirement OF
this knowledge will come in play, and
reverses Of fortune may occur which
will render it needfal again to bring
into use the money >m aking ability.
do not believe that the wife and
mother should be the bread winner
under any bu, the greatest stress of
need; but the knowledge that the wife
has the ability to be self supporting
may render her less under the do
minion Of brutal husband, by COM
pelling his espcctful Difference to her
wishes and opinions. The subser-
viency born OF ,gnoble fear or OF
ignorant he!plessness is no compli.
ment to man; while the love, the
respect and unselfsh devotion of an
intelligent, cultured, independent
woman is something of which any
man may be justly proud"

Haley never does things by
halves. 1t does not matter what is to
be done, once the citizens make up
their mind to do it, it is done, and
we'll and thoroughly. 1t is so with
dancing. When the people turn to
dancing they dancc--iance with thei'
"wholc soul and body" dance every
other night, aud every night. And
one OF two halls do not suffice to hold
those that dance. Last evening, for
instance, there were As couples be-
sides number Of forlorn, "unpaired'
gentlemen at the soiree at the Alturas
Hotel, l6 couples at the HALEY flo,
Springs, and two private dancing
parties.
Dancing seems to be "fad," the
ruling passion here, just now.
Wonder row long it will last; and
what will be the next fad?

John Connection has Just received

1t is from a gentleman in New York
who has the proposition figured down
to an allspice, and has somehow be-
come impressed with the idea that
John is a good old Comstocker upon
whom the genial smile Of the Goddess
of Fortune should be specially lavished.
G. Lewis, 1886 Third avenue, New

John is fraternaly invited to visit him
as soon as possible with $3.50 in his
pocket, for which lie will receive $685.

from government mint plates and
paper, with the privilege OF as mnci,

The "goods" are represented as
genuine, although surreptitiously OBJ
tanned, and John is given the sole
agency for the Comstock. He will be
able to sell dollar greenbacks for two
hits and give his ice business to some
poor man. He has taken journalist
friend i".o partnership, and the result
is they sent responsive telegram to
Lewis last evening as follows:
"All right. Please reserve the $3.50
out Of the $4,000 AID forward the

Talk about your Haas and Stein rs
