Military Courage.

The question Of the comparative pro-
portion of really brave men in any army
will probably never be determined.
Great officers ON the continent keep
their knowledge ON that subject rigor-
ously as a professional secret and as
sumo as a certainty that all soldiers are
brave. They know very well, however,
that they are not, and when confiden-
tial will admit, as Marshal Won Moltke
once did in public, that with n great
number it takes discipline, and severe
discipline, too, TO induce them to face
shells unshrinkingly. American officers
have been known to acknowledge that
of their men, who are as brave as any
in the world, 30 per cent would run
away if they could, and i'll every army,
even ours which a man enters only of
free will, there is a certain proportion
who literally cannot overcome their
fears. They are stricken with a sort of
paralysis The proportion is probably
not high in any army, the majority, IL
in health, being able to do their duty
and having intense motives to do ii, but
neither is the proportion high of those
who literally feel no fear.-Londou

Tic DOG and the Law.

Onrt it is established that the nature
II the species Is gentle and that every
dog is a law abiding and peaceable Bruno
then il becomes necessary, before iabil-
ity for the vulgar transgrcssicns Of 4
fierce Towser can be fastened on the
owner, that he should have previous
knowledge of the usual and not to lie
expected feature.
This is called scienter, and until an
owner has this knowledge Of his dogs
viciousness he is not responsible, though
in the errcr of its ways not acting as
becomes gentleman of the dog species
o. lady, as the case may be. To be
more accurate and exact, once a dog
has departed from the narrow path of
rectitude and dCmeaned itself i'll ways
other than should obtain with a strictly
proper and gentle animal, and the own
er knows il, then it loses status and
caste and must be put down as vicious
animal, and the owner keeps it at his
peril. Lord Coleridge, it seems, was
anxious to reduce the law on the sub
ject TO a nicely in the way of succinct-
ness and brevity, and he succeeded by
saying that every dog is entitled to
one bite, " and the case has special refer
ence to spring lamb or veal. The cx-
PRESTON is varied by making it EVERY
dog is entitled to- one worry. ''-Green

II was once speaking at a temperance

know, but it was beer mug filled with

where there is convention food spread
out on a warm day there arc likely to

There were flies. and one had light

ter in that mug. / saw him as / lifted
it, and did the most natural and hu-
name thing l could think of-blew him
off the water. Well, they cheered for

Valuable Ware.

At the Saveton sale, in London, few
years ago, a service of old Sevres ware
was sold for So, 600. The genuineness
of this set was proved by certificates is
sued to the owners by the French gov
eminent, writes f. Vizetelly in Godey's.
But by far the most valuable service
turned out at the Sevres pottery Tin
1873 was made for the Czarina Cath
crime II of Russia and consisted of 745
pieces, which cost $50, $50.
The Seyrcs ware, old or modern, is
usually light in color and daintily dec
grated with flowers or figure subjects
tastefully arranged. The porcelain
itself, although of good texture, is in
ferior to that of the English potteries.
Decorated pieces generally bear pic
torial panels on white ground, sur
rounded by frames of gilt scrollwork.
These. as well as the tableware, are
quito ii keeping with the national char
acter. Although the Seyres works are
still in operation, they are kept busy in
copying ancient Chinese and Japanese
models instead of increasing their rep
utation i'll the manufacture of the wares
which made them famous.

A young lady from the city was try
ing her hand as an amateur saleswoman
in plantation store one morning last
week when an old colored woman, gor-
geously arrayed in her Sunday clothes,
entered the store and. pointing to bot
tie of German cologne on one of the
highest shelves, asked:
What dat?"
That's cologne, auntie.''
well, I'll take it. -
Delighted at having made sale in
such short time the young lady busted
herself in getting down the bottle and
busting it for the customers inspection,
at the same time commenting upon its
excellencies with the volubility of an
experienced auctioneer.
II believe, auntie, 3" she continued,
THAT this is the finest perfume ever
manufactured"-
She was brought to a sudden pause,
for the old negress had thrown up both
hands in Mortified protest.

q Sow Mean. Of sterf1lratIor.

One of the simplest and most thor
ough methods of sterilizing when it can
be used is by means Of heat. One of the
difficulties in the use of this means is
that the articles may be spoiled, espe-
cially where the heat is long continued.
Baking or placing articles in dry heat
for any length of time is not only an
unreliable method, but attended with
the danger of fire if degree of heat is
sufficiently thorough to sterilize them.
Boiling or steaming is Objectionable
because most things would be rendered
useless from the contact with moisture
Experiments have proved that hot oil is
one of the best sterilizers known, espe-
cially for instruments.
One of our most eminent surgeons
has demonstrated the fact that the most
complete sterilizing follows the dipping
Of surgical instruments into boiling
olive oil One may determine the tenn
perature of the oil by very simple
process of dropping bread crumbs into
the oil When they turn brown and
crisp, the oil is hot enough for the sur
geon's use. This is much more con-
veniert than using the thermometer,
which may not always be at hand. The
oil may be heated over a spirit lamp,
and few spoonfuls will be sufficient
for sterilizing the instruments used in
some of the more simple operations

says: Il am well aware everyone has

But hope by telling mine l shall in

shooting pains and swelling of the

For the past five or six years several
doctors have treated me for nv trou-
bic without arresting the progress of
the disease. They knew what the
trouble was and pronounced it kidney
complaint. One doctor said he could
do nothing for me and advised me TO
