Valuable Remedy. 70

Attacks of asthma may be brought on
by the most varied and singular causes
different sorts of scents, the odor of
raspberries, as was the case of Claude
Bernard; the smell of hay, the vapor of
a sulphur match that has just been
lighted, the dust from oats or powdered
ipecacuanha. One patient will have
asthma in the north, but will be free
from it in the south; another will have
asthma in Paris, but will be perfectly
well in Vienna; still another will have
the most terrible attacks as long as he
is in Egypt, but will be relieved as soon
as he gets to sea, says the n. Y. Herald.
1t is generally admitted nowadays
that the attack of asthma is due to
spasm of the inspiratory muscles, and
that the origin of the trouble is some
stimulation of the nasal mucous men,
brane. On the other hand, it is also
known that a vigorous stimulation of
the mucous membrane of the nose may
put an end to an attack of asthma;
therefore in this purely nervous phe-
nomenOn the same cause may either
bring on OF put an end to the attack.
1t is Oh this popularity that are based
a certain number of methods of treat
ment of an attack of asthma, and the
latest born of these methods consists in
shifting eau de cologne. My readers
may remember that l made known to
them the process whereby M. Roux of
Lyons cuts short colds in the head and
chest at their beginning. 1t consists in
having the patients inhale by the mouth
and nose for about two minutes and
about four or five times day about
fifty drops of cologne water. 1t is now
claimed that the same method will put
an end to an attack of asthma.

Did the Peacock Die of Grief?

Some years ago, says an English
writer, paid visit to friend who
rented a cottage on Hughenden Manor.
where the late earl of Beaconstield
reared the celebrated white peacocks
which he ultimately bequeathed to
Queen Victoria. Soon after my arrival
my friend, who was confined to couch
by a spinal affection, said:
Il expect gentleman to tea at 6
o'clock; would you please set the door
ajar, for he cannot open it HIMSELF"
| thought this strange, but made no
remark. The sitting-room was APP
preached by long. narrow passage,
and presently-the tea service being
laid-we heard the tap, tap of a regular
tread approaching the room. Then fol-
lowed decided jab at the door and in
swept a magnificent peacock. No Won
der, thought l, that in the early ages of
chivalry the most solemn oath was
taken on the peacock. Our visitor
walked straight to my friend, looking
around as if in search of something.
She produced some fruit and cake,
which he ate out of her hand, and then
pecked up some crumbs soaked in milk
from a saucer on the floor. | put forth
my hand to caress him, upon which he
raised himself on his toes and uttered
shrill cry, repudiating all my blandish-
ments vi Vigorously. In the same manner
he came every evening, remaining
about half an hour. His affection for
his hostess was evident, but | never got
beyond his liberation. Two months
afterward my friend left Hughenden.
Subsequently she wrote me:
Poor Ralph is dead The stupid
gamekeeper never let him into the cot
tage nor fed him in the evening. as he
promised me to do. | hear from the
little maid, you remember, that the poor
bird refused to eat and would lie for
hours beneath the window, uttering oc-
casionally plaintive cry. AT night he
persisted in roosting in the cedar tree
on the cottage lawn. Becoming too
weak to fly upward, he lay among the
shrubs in the dew, and was one morn
ing found dead"
OF what did he die? Most probably
of the passive cruelty of the game
keeper.

CENTS ARE LEGAL TENDER.
In Amounts of Twenty-Five or Under They
VIII Go Anywhere in This Country.

There is one story so utterly ridiculous
that it seems incredible that it should
ever have been printed, which in one
form or another makes the rounds OF
various newspapers of the country an
nually. Look for it and you will sooner
ar later see it crop up again.
This tale is always based upon the
mpopularity of the one cent pieces in
the extreme West and Southwest. In
its most common form it tells of some
Eastern traveller who attempts to dis
pose of hundred or so one cent pieces
in San Francisco. Ell Paso or some other
place. The tradesman is always repre-
Sented as looking at them curiously and
declining them.
The writers of these senseless tales
may have been in the West or they may
not. 1t matters little-their story is
pointless. They seek to brand the
mythical tradesman as of the same
category with themselves.
The cent is a legal tender in amounts
OF twenty-five and less. If an Eastern
man in San Francisco or anywhere
else owes debt of twenty-five cents,
and tenders twenty-five one cent pieces
in settlement the courts will sustain
him.
OF course, the coins are not popular
in the extreme West and South, but no
one need carry hundred of them in a
cigar box or anywhere else as useless
metal. If you are in a city that has not
a United States Sub-Treasury, 90 to
the Post Office, dump in twenty-five
cents and see if you will have any diff
ficulty in obtaining stamps or postal
cards of like amount. If one is refused,
a letter of complaint to the postal author
tiles will soon work the removal of an
employe who would discredit United
States money.
1t is well to bear this matter of the
legal tender of a cent in mind. No one
for spite can make person take more
than twenty-five of them in any single
transaction involving the settlement of
a debt. One need have no fear, then, of
receiving 800 in cents from some en-
Uttered debtor

How to Feed The Baby.

"The weight and size, not the age, of
the baby should determine its food"
This is the opinion of DR.. A. Siebert of
the New York Polytechnic Children's
hospital and ever so many more places
where the small people are the chief
object. 1t is the most sensible and
practical of all the theories of infant
feeding. 1t puts the whole matter in
nutshell and enables the mother to do
justice to every pound her baby gains,
to encourage every ounce of flesh with
out running to the doctor for advice
1t stands to reason that baby of
fifteen pounds weight .must need
stronger nourishment than one of ten,
even though they are of one age. TSe
ten-pound baby, for instance, should re-
celve every two hours a mixture of one
and One-half ounces or three tablespoon
fuls of sterilized milk and two and one
half ounces or five tablespoonfuls of
well-strained oatmeal Cruel or distilled
water with one half teaspoonful of
sugar. Eight bottles of this mixture
should be prepared each day, six to be
administered between 6 a. m. and ..
m. and the remaining two during the
night. The flfteen-pound baby should
have three and one-half ounces or seven
tablespoonfuls of sterilized milk and
two and one-half ounces or five table
spoonfuls of water with three-quarters
of a teaspoonful of sugar every two and
one-half hours, or five bottles during the
day and two at night As the baby in
creases in weight the proportion of
Cruel OF water should be lessened, till
on attaining the weight of twenty
pounds all milk can be used and eight
ounces, sweetened with one teaspoon
full of sugar, can be given every three

WOOD ENGRAVING TO DIE,
An Old Art Soon to BE Lost-A Wood Er
graver Turns Restaurant Keeper.

H. E. Sylvester, the talented engraver,
become restaurant proprietor on North
street!
"How in the world could you ever
give up your art for a mere money-get-
ting enterprise" l asked
"Oh, it wasn't my giving up the art
SO much as the art giving up me-a6
everybody else in that profession" re-
piled my genial host with a laugh.
Wood engraving, like steel engraving,
is destined to become lost art. /
realized that fact some years ago when
mechanical processes began to displace
my work. A first-class engrayer in
past years earned 81, 500 to SO, 500 q
year. The price paid simply for the
engraving was from 50 to 81 per square
inch.
How do l compare half tone with
wood engraving? Well, of course the
direct product of brain and hand is
superior to mechanical process The
half tone only tells obscurely how a
things looks; it gives no color as the
term is used in engraving, nor any
texture. 1t does not allow the direct
impact of the mind of the artist upon the
mind of the observer that makes the
charm of art, and it is really only the
chrome of black and white art
"The half tone, too, will doubtless be
superseded by something better The
photogravure is really preferable. but is
more expensive"
"What has become of all the wood en-
gravers who have thus lost their voca-
toni" asked.
WELL" answered Mr. Sylvester,
many have taken up. drawing, or PEN
and-ink work, as have George Moulton
and McKeon; some, like Bartle, have
turned painters; others, like Tenney and
Philip Brown, are working on half tones;
Closson is decorating a house for
man in the suburbs; Kingsley
and Cleaves are making artist proofs for
a limited number of special buyers;
Cole has been abroad for a series of

THE DUEL IN THEDARK.

1t was Thanksgiving day. and this
is the story as it was told by Miss
Pepper, the fine needle worker, at the
woman's boarding house on Tenth
street "You see, my dears," said
Miss Pepper, who was like sweet
faded old rose in the group of eager
young women about her, the trouble
with Jack Brice was this: he was heels
over head in love with my cousin
Margery Lee, but he was too poor to
marry.
He lived with his uncle, Tom Brice.
OF the Mansion Household Squire
Brlce, as all the country called him,
though he wasn't more than fifty: and
naturally when they both came court
ing Margery, her father favored the
squlre's suit most. But Margery
favored Jacks and showed it openly.
"A man may be as rich as Croesus,
but when he's choleric and mp in years
hone too good in the bargain-he
needn't expect to make much Roadway
with love sick girl Of twenty. Long
legged Jacks good looks outweighed
the squire's gold, but when her father
found out which way the wind was
blowing, he forbade Marcy to see
him again. She said nothing, for she
was not a girl to talk; but every night
she wrote long letter, that she would
hide IN hollow tree stump, and that
Jack won Id come and take away.
sometimes, too, in the early morn
ing, hardly daylight. she would lump
on her bay mare Hornet and dash two
miles down the river to the ford. where
Jack would be waiting, and would
swim his horse over from the other
side, just to have five minutes talk
with her.
An, but they were in love, 1 can
tell you. and | never saw better

SO full of life
wv neither my uncle ever heard of
their goings on l don't know: but he
stopped talking against Jack. and urg
ing the squire's suit He only told us.
Marcy and me both, for | lived with
them, that old Tom had him in his
power and could ruin him. and now
that she wouldn't marry him, he was
going to take his revenge.
Then he felt sick. and seemed like
ly to die, and my poor cousin was in
a terrible quandary.
she loved Jack, but she loved her
father too, and she felt it was worry
that was killing him.
''One terrible night, when we were
almost expecting my uncle to breathe
his last, Marcy fell on her knees and
promised to marry the squire. and he
at once began to recover with aston
lshing quickness.
She wrote Jack one letter. one curt
cold letter, that she sat two DAYS over;
and that he tore in half and sent back
to her, and then left the county on
top of it.
This left the field Of love open to
the squire, and he made the most of il.
