There are more working days in
the year of the American workman
than of any other save the Hun
garian. The latter works 3l3 days in
the year, and thus has almost no
holiday save Sunday. The number
Of working days in the American
working year is 3es. This is the
same as the German, it is thirty days
more than the English, forty one
more days than the Russian, and
from six to eighteen days more than the
working year of any other European
country. 1t is noteworthy that even
newly arrived immigrants keep
American holidays.

A boy was once brought before "Old
Steady" Baker, the mayor Of Folkestone,
for stealing gooseberries. Baker turned
over Burns Justice" but not being able
to find the article he wanted in the book,
which is alphabetically arranged. he lift
ed up his spectacles and addressed the
culprit thus: "My lad, it's very lucky'for
you that, instead of stealing gooseber-
ries, you were not brought here for steal
ing goose. There Is a statute against
stealing geese, but can't find anything
about gooseberries in all Burn, SO let the
prisoner be discharged, forI suppose it is
no offense." San Francisco Argonaut.

Horse slaughtering on an extern
sive scale is soon to be entered upon
in the vicinity OF Portland, Oregon.
Horses are too plentiful out in that
section of the country, and low esti-
mate places the number of half breed
wild horses in Oregon, Washington,
Montana, Nevada and Idaho at two
million head. For these ANIMALS no
market can be found and they serve
to keep down the price of good stock.
Now these horses are to be cleaned out
and a company has been formed that
expects to reap large profits from
their destruction. This company is
to build large battoirs near the city
and there kill the animals. The flesh
will :bs rendered of it's oil, and the
residue with tho bones and hoofs, will
be made into a fertilizer. The hides,
that also have a market value, will
be salted, and the hair will be used
for upholstery work. A portion of
the meat will be compressed for use
as chicken food.

ITEMS OF INTEREST.
whooping Cough

Is disease which is directly con-
tagious from Que person to another.
With complications it is regarded as
very fatal disease and ranks third
among fatal disease of children, &C
cording to an eminent medical au-
thority. 1t is most common among
children and when 1t is not serious
in the case of healthy children, it is a
disease greatly to be dreaded for
delicate children and infants. Adults
and aged people are sometimes at.
tackled by whooplng cough and in
this case it is again a serious disor-
der. A number of neighboring
towns as our own are experience
ing an epidemic of this
disease, but little attention has been
paid to it. While there are many
parents who do not regard the dis
ease with any degree of apprehension
and would prefer their children TO
have it while young, there are also
other parents who have delicate
children and babies, who are in no
condition to battle with this disorder.
who complain when their children
take whooping cough at school. Just
why houses are carded for other con-
taglous diseases and no attention paid
to whooping cough is a mystery. If
we accept the statements of good
medical authorizes concerning whoop-
ing cough we must admit that it is a
disease not to be trihed with. And
when children have this disease they
should be kept from school and not
be allowed to mingle with other
children who are free from it. The
same precaution should be taken to
avoid the spread of whooping cough
as with other contagious diseases.

Common salt is one of the most
valuable remedial agents the world
contains. Used as tooth powder,
alone or with a little prepared chalk,
it whitens the teeth and makes the
gums hard and rosy. 1t is a good
gargle for sore throat, and if taken in
time, will benefit, if not cure dip
iberia. 1t will stop bleeding of the
mouth, and in warm water is a good
emetic and remedy against several
poisons. There is nothing better for
sore feet and hands than salt and
water.
A decoction of cinnamon is recon-
mended as drink to be taken
freely in localities where there is
typhoid fever or cholera, Cor cinna-
mon has the power to destroy all in
fectious microbes. Even its scent
kills them, while it is perfectly harm.
less to human beings 1t is said that
the essence of cinnamon, when ex-
posed in the sick room will kill
typhoid bacilli in twelve hours and
prevent fresh cases.
Celery can be kept week or long
er by first rolling it in dark brown
paper, then pinning it in towel and
laying away in cool, dark place. Be-
fore preparing it for the table place
it in pan of cold water, and let it re-
main for an hour. Thus kept, the
celery will bleach to considerable
extent and be finer than when first
purchased

To the Editor of the PRESS:

" u1O EulbOI VI Guc OiLlOos
The report of meeting of citizens in the
movement Tor division of Cape Elizabeth,
which appeared quite recently in the
PRESS, was very fair and impartial state
ment of affairs as they appeared at that
meeting. but certain facts which did not
then appear to spectator were well under
stood by the participants in the meetings,
and it may be due to all parties that some
thing more should be said. The lack of
harmony then remarked, was, doubtless,
more apparent 10 an observer than real to
the actors. The division line reported was
the verbal report OF a secondary, or. per-
haps, minority committee consisting of
five good citizens, while written report,
unanimously presented at previous meet
ing by a standing committee of eight equal
ly good citizens was lying quietly upon the
table, unseen and undiscussed. The CON-
mite were entirely distinct from each
other. The report of the standing CON-
mittee embodied the line hitherto most
thoroughly discussed, and now pending
legislatively. The verbal report of the
secondary committee embodied sort OF
naturalization of money and diverse sug-
gestions, and was being subjected to the
cool criticism which careful Yankees claim
apparent lack of harmony came from the
disp osition of the Yankee to rather open
the eyes and close the mouth than to open
the mouth and close the eyes. The future
hath not yet occurred.
