Tho FlY's Mouth.

The 1y's mouth is really nothing more nor less than tongue which, at the proper time, runs in and out of a hole in the fy's head, like the tongue of snake. Even this latter effect may be proved to be delusion if you are careful in examining fly while in the act of eating, for it is then that it may be seen that the combination mouth and tongue is simply a tiny black, thread like proboscis which unfolds from be- meath the head, where there is 8 little niche or socket prepared for it.
 When this combination tongue and mouth is unfolded ready for business, it spreads out, dividing into two fiat leaves, which are planted smoothly and evenly over the surface from which the little insect hopes to extract meal Should the surface prove dry or un- yielding, the fly is equal to the emer- gency, and by muscular feat he inn mediately changes his smooth, soft, leafike tongue into rasp which works with lightning rapidity over the lump of sugar or other substance, the particles thus dislodged being quickly sucked in- to the stomach. In case the meal is g liquid one the mouth and tongue com- bine to make an excellent pump for transferring the food to the place where it will do the most good.-St. Louis Republic

Durrant's conviction of murder at San Francisco on Friday was followed by that of Holmes at Philadelphia last Saturday. Two deaths are laid at the door of the California assassin, while no one save Holmes himself can tell with any degree of exactitude the appalling number of his victims. In his case the motive seems to have been the money derived from the insurance policies of those whom he de- stroyed, while that of Durrant was of a more degraded character. So monstrous are the crimes of each, however, that one feels tempted to believe that they are homicidal maniacs, possessed of all the running and craftiness of madmen, instead of possessing the normal degree of sanity, and being as such responsible for their actions.

The New York Sun, many years ago, obtained from an eminent doctor a pre-. scription for the prevention and cure ot cholera. No one who has this by him and takes it in time will ever have the cholera. It is also an excellent remedy for ordinary summer complaints, diar- rhoea, collie, etc. Take equal parts of tincture of cayenne pepper, tincture of opium, tincture of rhubarb, essence of peppermint and spirits of camphor. Mix well. Dose, fifteen to thirty drops in a little cold water, according to age and vi- olence of symptoms, repeated every f1f- teen or twenty minutes until relief is ob- tained. Cut this recipe out and paste it in your collection of home remedies, or, better yet, have bottle of it prepared and keep in the house: It's prompt use may save some beloved life Mrs. Mary A. Woodbridge carried this preparation with her for years.

MAYOR WARWICK As A WAe.-Mayor Charles F.. Warwick, of Philadelphia, is something of wag, if one is to judgo by his pranks on the road to Atlanta. At several points along the route where the girls crowded upon the liberty-beH car, Mayor Warwick would gravely inform them that it had long been the custom for young ladies in Philadelphia to place both hands upon the surface of the bell and look through the crack in its side, and It was sure thing that they would see the man that they would marry. A regular bargain-counter rush would be the result

at every such announcement. One young lady who came with her escort, upon gaz- ing through the rent in the old bell, de- clared that she believed it a fraud. for she had seen nobody, whereupon the Mayor, with the utmost politeness, requested her to glance over her right shoulder and her curiosity would be gratifed. She imme- diately did SO, and beholding her escort at her elbow, blushed furiously and re- treated. Mayor Warwick says he is con- vinced he made correct prophecy in one instance at least.-Atl01at0 Journal.

THIS Paper and The Connecticut Courant
Tneslax,s Elections,

Massachusetts re-elects Gov. Greenhalge by plurality of over 64, 900. The woman suffrage question resulted in defeat by over 5O,OOO. Col. Young, the A. P. A. candidate for representative from Spring field is elected by small majority.
 In New York Tammany elects it's tick ct by 3O,OOO plurality. The state goes republican by about 90,0OO, and the legis- lature Is republican by majority of 68.
 Ohio meets every expectation of the re- publicans and Bushnell, republican, is elected governor over Campbell, demo- crat, by plurality of IA, 900, and the leg islature is republican, which insures the election of a republican in the U. s. senate to succeed Senator Brice.
 New Jersey elects John W. Griggs, the republican candidate for governor, by the surprising plurality of 22.OOO. Griggs is the first republican governor that has been elected for many years,
 In Maryland German is beaten, and Lloyd, republican, is elected governor by about 10000 majority. The legislature will be republican on joint ballot, thereby insuring republican successor to United States Senator Gibson.
 Kentucky elects W. o. Bradley, repub- lican, governor by 4,OOO majority.
 Iowa elects full republican state tick ct by about 75,OOO plurality.
 Pennsylvania and Nebraska elect minor state officers by the usual republican ma- jorities.
 Utah elects republican state officers and a majority of the legislature.
 Virginia and Mississippi are democratic with their usual majorities.
 The election is very satisfactory to the republicans, as they gain two United States senator, one in Ohio and one in Maryland, and also gain the states of Maryland, Kentucky and New Jersey. It is to be regretted that New York City has slipped back into the hands of Tam many.
 New York City had a $75O,OOO fire last Tuesday night, in the vicinity of Crosby and Blocker streets and Broad way. The fire seemed at one time to be beyond the control of the firemen, and all the resources of the department was sum- moned and finally obtained control, but not until large amount of property had gone up in smoke.

An apostle of physical culture says that an excellent and never-failing cure for nervous headache is the simple act of walking backward. Ten minutes is as long as is usually necessary to promenade. It sometimes, however, requires more than ten minutes to walk at all, if one is very nervous" But 1t is not understood that it is necessary to walk chalkline. Any kind of walking will do, provided it is backward. It is we'll to get in long, narrow room, where the window are high, and walk very slowly, placing first the ball of the foot on the floor, and then the heel. Besides curing the headache, this exercise promotes graceful carriage. A half hours walk backward every day will do wonders toward producing graceful gait. -MedicGI Record.

YIELD OF WHEAT.

The Crop of the Entire Country Will
Average 12.6 Bushels Per Acre.
CHICAGO, Oct. 1.-The October crop
report of the Orange Judd Farmer, bas-
ing its estimate upon county returns
and threshing results, estimates the
rate cf yield Of wheat at 1876 bushels,
and the total crop at 459, $50 900 bushels,
divided into 26O, 900, 600 winter and 199,-
100000 spring. Threshing shows the
winter wheat yields larger than were
expected, but the quality is poor, and a
considerable part of the crop will never
enter commercial channels. The yield
of oats is phenomenal, exceeding all ex-
pectations, and making new records il
Iowa and the Northwest. The measure
from the machine has been constant
surprise since threshing began. The
crop is estimated at 9O4, ,O0O, 900 bushels
or 210, ,O00,0 600 bushels larger than last
year with 30 bushels to the acre. Iowa
alone has over 200, 600, 600, with nearly
Al bushels to the acre. Qualityis not in
keeping with the size of the crop, much
grain being stained. Condition of corn
Oct. /, 92.5, high average. It is ma
tured, safe from frost, and drying rap
idly. There is every indication of a rate
of yield larger than has been antici-
pated, necessitating final upward revi-
sion Of all estimates Of the crop.

THE BUTTER FLAVOR.

BY Frsexing It Can BE Retained for Six
Months or More.
Concerning cold storage of butter,
we will say that there is only one
method that will keep butter SO as to
preserve its first rosy favor, and that
is by freezing it.
The old method Of cold storage by
holding it at temperature Of 80 to 40
degrees would keep the butter from
getting rancid, but it would soon lose
its fine flavor and show a sort of dead,
cold-storage taste. If refrigerators are
constructed on q system whereby q
temperature Of from 16 to 20 degrees
can constantly maintained, butter can
be held in q sweet rosy condition six
months. Recent experiments have in
dicated that it is better to go down
even as low as degrees above zero.
The butter does not lose its flavor
quickly when brought into consump-
tion. The sixty-pound package, either
in tubs or f1rkins, is probably the best
form of package for this work
