A FATAL MISTAKE.
HOW A BLUNDERING JUDGEMENT MAT BB
RESPONSIBLE FOB TIIE MOST
SERIOUS RESULTS,
Mr. Edwin Booth said recently that
he supposed his lungs were affected,
having a persistent cough until lie saw
Dr. Mackenzie, of London, who found
that his symptom arose from a dis
turbance of the liver. — JV. Y. Her
ald.
The above item, which has been going
the rounds of the Press, is of no special
significance other than to the persoual
friends ot Mr. Booth, except that it brings
to lighi a truth of the greatest importance
to tli6 world. Few people pass through
life without the affliction of a cough at
some point in tfeeir career. In most cases
this is considered the result oi a cold or
the beginning of consumption, and thous
ands have become terrified at this revela
tion and have sought by a ch&uge of air
and the use of cough medicines to avert
the impending disaster. It may safely be
said that more than half the coughs which
are afflicting the world to-day do not have
their origin in the lungs but are the result
of more serious troubles in other organs of
the body. " Liver coughs'' are exceedingly
common and yet are almost wholly mis
understood. Arising from a disordered
state of the liver they show their results
by congesting the lungs. In fact, the ef
forts of the liver to throw off the disease,
produce coughing even when the lungs
themselves are in a healthy state.
But it is a mistake to suppose that such
delicate tissues as the lungs can long re
main in a healthy condition when they are
being constantly agitated by coughing,
Such a theory would be absurd. Con
sumption, which was feared at first, is
certain to lake place unless something is
done to check the cause. This must be
plain to every thoughtful mind. It stands
to reason, therefore, that the only way In
which " liver coughs" can be removed is
by restoring the liver to health,
In this connection, another fact of great
importance becomes known, which can
best be explained by the relation of an
actual event. Mr. W , a wealthy cat
tle dealer of Colorado, became greatly re
duced in health and came east to Chicago
for the purpose of being cured. He con
sulted Dr. J , one of the leading phy
sicians of the country on pulmonic subjects
aud began treatment for the cure of his
lungs. But his cough increased while his
strength decreased. Finally he determined
to consult another physician aad applied to
Dr. B . After a careful examination he
was informed that his lungs was perfectly
sound, while his kidneys were in a most
terrible condition. He had all the appar
ent symptoms of consumption but he was
suffering from the terrible Bright's disease.
The symptoms of consumption are often
the sure indication of Bright's disease.
The above truths regarding coughs have
been known by the leading physicians for
several years but the public have never
been informed of them. They are serious
facts, however, and should be understood
by all, so that dangers which might other
wise prove fatal may be avoided. They
clearly prove one great truth which ts, that
the kidneys and liter are such vital organs
that their health should be constantly
gurjded. The distressing, hacking cough,
which is often dreaded as the forerunner
of consumption and the was"ing strength
which accompanies it, in all probability
may arise from weakened or diseased kid
neys or liver, to restore which would cause
returning health. How this most desirable
end may be attained has long been a
problem, but few people of intelligence at
the present day have longer any doubts that
the popular remedy known as Warner's
iSafe Kidney and Liver cure has done more
to correct, relieve and restore these organs
than any other preparation ever before
known. There are hundreds of Instances
which have occurred within the past three
months where individuals have believed
themselves the victims of consumption,
when, in reality it was deranged kidneys
and liver which this remarkable medicine
has completely cured, as witness the fol
lowing statement:
BUFFALO, N. Y„ July 6, 1882.—1 be
lieve it to be a fact that thousands of cases
of so-called consumption can be success
fully treated by simply using Warner's
Bafe Kidney and Liyer cure as directed.
1 was one of the " given up to die" per
sons—had every symptom ef the last stage
of consumption —bad cough of four years
standing, night sweats, chills, etc. etc. A
season South did no good, and the fact
was the case looked discouraging. I toon
Warner's bafe Kidney and Liver Cure, and
in three months I regained over tweDty
pounds, and my health was fully restored.
W. C. BEACH,
Foreman Buffalo Rubber Type Foundry.
'lhere are thousands of people in Ameri
ca to-day who believe they are the victims
of consumption and destined to an early
grave and who are trying to save them
selves by the use of consumption cures but
are growing worse each hour. Let all such
persons 6top, and calmly consider whether
they are not seeking to check a disease in
the lnngs when it is located in the kidneys
and liver. Let them then treat the disease
in its original stronghold and* by the rem
edy which has proven to be the most ef
fective and theD look for the return of
health and happiness which such treatment
is sure to bring.
IT is not generally known that boiled
carrots, when properly prepared, form
an excellent substitute for eggs in pad
dings. They must, for this purpose, be
boiled and masked, and passed through
a coarse cloth or hair sieve strainer.
The pnlp is then introduced amoDg the

A Connecticut mechanic has made a
trial of rotary files for finishing planed
surfaces. He is of the opinion that quick

scraper. His experiments have been con
fined to the planer; but he believes that
his device may be properly and economi

AGRICULTURE.
PROPERTIES c* CHARCOAL. —As a top
dressing for a meadow or a lawn it is ex
cellent. It is so good an absorbent of
moisture and grasses that it will keep a
Jawn green in a drought when the undres
sed flelds are brown and parched. As a
basis for compost there is nothing superi
or. Every good house wife knows that if
she has auy tainted meat charcoal will
take out its taints it anything can. A
p'ece as big as one's fist put into the pot
with boiling corned beet that has passed
its prime will absorb the bail odors and re
store it to sweetness if the putrefaction
process lias not gone too far. In like man
ner chaicoal acts in the compost heap. An
effluvia even from a dead horse, will bo
absorbed and stored up for the use of corn,
grass or any crop to which it may be ap
plied. As a top dressing lor grass or grain
it is particularly beneficial, as when tbo
rich gases have once been extracted it is
in a position to absorb more from the
dews, snows and rains. Ploughed under
a thick sod its absorbing power is compar
tively limited. We must not omit to
mention the aerating effect which fine
charcoal has on stiff clay land®. It renders
them friable and permeable to air aud
moisture—a result which can hardly bo
overestimated. Muck has something of
the same effect, but muck docs not last as
does charcoal. Oo sandy lands charcoal
does good, as it is such an absorbent of
moisture that thin lauds dressed with it
will remain fresh when the undressed are
parched. The only place where charcoal
seems to exert little or no ameliorating in
fluence is on low, cold, wet lands, and
here even stable manure has comparative
ly little effect.
UTILISE YOUR BONES. — bones of
your own body, merely, but any and all
bones, beef and mutton and chicken, aiul
even tish bones. The American Garden
says they constitute the very best food for
fruit-trees and grape vines if the fragments
are only placed where the roots can lay
hold on them, aud adds: "Instead of al
lowing pieces of bone to be cast into the
back-yard, as food for stray dogs and
strange cats, domestics should bo directed
to deposit everything of the sort in a small
tub provided witn a lid. As soon as a
few pounds have accumulated we take the
tub to some grape vine or fruit tree, dig a
hole three or more feet long, a foot or two
wide, and less than a toot deep,into which
the bones ardumped; spread over the bot
tom of the excavation, and cover with the
soil. The more the fragments can be spread
around, the better. But they should be
buried so deep that a plow or spade wull
not reach them. The roots of growing
vines or fruit trees will soon find the valu*
aoJe mine of rich fertility,and will feed on
the elements that will greatly promote the
growth of stroug and healthy wood and the
development of fair and luscious fruit."
CLEAN CIDIB BARRELS. —Cider makiDg
is uow close at haud, and old barrels must
have terome very mouldy anil whol'y un
fit to use without a thorough fumigation.
A scientific journal gives the following re
ceipts for effecting this, which we hope
may do. "To clean cider barrels, pour m
lime water, and then insert a trace chain
through the bung-hole, remembering to
fasten a strong cord on the chain so as to
pull it out again. Shake the barrel until
all the mould, inside is rubbed off. Rinse
with water, and finally pour in a little
whisky." This is simple enough and
would seem to meet the requirements.
Really fine cider can Dot be expected when
the barrels are not perfectly sweet and
clean. But if any of our cider-makers have
a bettor or other methods than this, we
shall be pleased to find them; aud to be of
use this season they should be communi
cated at once.
FATTENING SMALL FIGS. —Cora at sev
enty cents a bueiiel is still the cheapest fat*
tening food for pigs; but when corn is so
dear it is best to study the most economical
manner of feeding; corn in the ear boiied
with small potatoes, will be worth twice
as much dry as corn and raw ootatoes. la
deed raw potatoes will scarcely do more
than support life, and may often be inju
rious, being indigestible ami drastic, in
| their effects upon the Dowels. Corn-meal
boiled to a thick mush and mixed with
skim milk and fed when nearly cold, will
make the cheapest pork. A bushel of coru
fed in this way has made twenty-iour
pounds of pors. Corn meal steeped in
water is about as good as boiled whole corn
and the latter is the cheaper of the two.
1 igs do not thrive well upon, warm teed,
and they do better witb four light meals a
day than with two heavy ones.
A LADY, writing to an exchange, says:
Never give up a choice but decaying rose
bush till you have tried watering it two or
three times with soot tea. Take soot from
a chimney or stove with which wood is
burned and make a tea of it. When cold,
water the rosebush with it. When ail is
used pour boiling water a second time
on the soot. The shrub will quickly eend
out thrifty shoots, the leaves will become
large and thick and the blossoms will be
larger and more richly tinted than before.
To keep tbe plants ciear of insects syringe
tnem with quassia tea. Quassia chips can
ue obtained from the apothecaries.
TURNIPS. —When turnips placed in the
cellar begin to sprout they are usually
thrown away, but a bushel of turnips will
furnish a family withralad all winter, and
very good one if properly prepared. Place
the bushel of turnips in a dark, warm cel
lar to sprout, and when the sprouts are
three or four inches long cat them off, pick
the leaves from the stems and pour on
hot water a moment; place the sprouts in
the colander to drain off all the water,and
send to table with a plain dressing poured
ever them.
EVERY farmer who has to contend with
stony land will thank us for saying that
when the small ones are to he pick d (wo
men with dung forks will do more work,
and do its easier, than four w.ll with their
hands. We got the idea from an exchange,
and put it into practical execution the
other day, to our own advantage and the
great gratification of the men we put at
the job.
BPRUOE butter tuns are the best; while
hemlock makes a sweet tub; acids from
tbe oak color the butter and injure its
appearance; white ash gives the batter a
strong flavor if kept long and increases
the liability to mould ; maple smells and
cracks tadly. Soak all tubs four to six
days in brine before using.
GIVE fattening cattle as much as they
will eat,and often—five times a day.Never
give rapid changes of food, but change of
ten. A good guide for a safe quantity of
gram per day to maturing catt'eis 1 pound
to every hundred of their weight; thus an
animal weighing one thousand may receive
ten pounds.
OVER $8 000 000 worth of cotton-eeed
meal is imported into threat Britain annu
ally to feed cattle, and tne London Agri
cultural Gazette styles it "the very best
food imported, and by its use English gra
zers can compete with the American."

GUMBO, —Gumbo is the name of soap;
Okra is the plant. Okra is cultivated in
every vegetable gardeu In Texas. The
tender pods are boiled and dressed with
salt, pepper and butter, and always
called Okra. Sonp, made by boiling
beef, chicken, or dnok until ths meat
will part from the bono, which is then
chopped tine as for mince meat and put
back into the soup, and young Okra
pods cut up thin across the pod are put
into the soup aud simmered for an hour,
red and black pepper are added, ami
when dono it is called "Gumbo," and
persons accustomed to the dish are very
fond of it. The Creoles often add Sas
safras leavea cut tine to give the Gumbo
a flavor and add to the mucilaginous
qualities of the Gumbo. Okra is much
used iu all soups with other vegetables.
It should not be oooked in an iron ket
tle, as it turns tbo Okra black. The
test for Okra is to break the pod from
the plant; if it will not break it has
passed the edible state. Okra, Toma
toes aud Grseu Corn, iu equal quantities,
seasoned with butter, pepper and salt,
and baked for two hours, is a favorite
Southern dish.

WBARINO PtLANvmi,. —Put it on at
once. Winter or summer, nothing bet
ter oan be worn next to the skin than s
loose, red, woole* flannel shirt; "loose."
for it has room to move on the skin,
thus causing a tit illation which draws
the blood to ths surrace and keeps it
there; and, when this is the case, no
one can take oold; "red," for white fulls
np, mats together and becomes stiff,
heavy and impervious; "woolen," the
product of a sheep and not of a gentle
man of color, not of ootton wool, bscauss
that merely absorbs the moisture from
the surface, while woolen flannel conveys
it from the skin and deposits it in drops
on the outside of the shirt, from which
ths ordinary ootton slnrt absorbs it, and,
by its nearer exposure to the exterior
air, it is soon dried without injury to
the body. Having these properties, red
woolen flannel is worn by sailors even
in the midustnmer of the hottest coun
tries. Wear a thinner material iu
summer.

To STRAIGHTHN WARPED BOAJU>S. — If
the wood is m a large piece, the convex
or hollow side should be steamed or
moistened a little, and then laid on a
dry floor, holding it down with a smooth,
flat board, upon which weights are
plaoed. When quite dry it will befouud
to have regained its original shape. If
the wood is in small pieces, it can be
easily straightened by geutly steaming
the convex side over a tea-ksttle, aud
then holding the other side toward the
heat until it becomes straight, when it
can be left in a press or under weights
for a few hours. Almost any warped
woods will yield under this treatment.

SOOT TEA FOR Roeis, —Get some soot
from a chimney or stove where wood is
used for fuel, put into an old pitcher
and pour hot water upon it. When c ol
use it to water your plants every few
days. When it is all used, fill up the
pitcher with hot water. The effect up
on plants, especia'ly upon rosss that
have almost hopelessly deteriorated, is
wonderful in procuring a growth of thrif
ty shoots, with large thick leaves and a
great number of richiy-tiuted roses.
Never despair of a decayed roae bush

SPECIFIC FOR BRONCHITIS AND A STEM A.
—Mr. G. A., ttala states that an unfail
ing source of relief from the agonies of
bronchitis and spasmodic asthma wiil
be found in the following specific: The
juice of 2 lemons, winch have been
warmed in the oven to dry the siins, 4
ounces of the best honey, 2 spoonfuls of
the very best Florence oil. Mix care
fully, put in an earthen jar, which keep
covered, and swallow a spoonful when
you feel the fit coming on you.
KEEPING FRUIT IN SAND.—A writer in
the London Garden says that he keeps
fruit in this way all the year round. He
has had French crabs two years old.
The Catillae pear has remained sound
twelve months. The fruit must be
sound when stored, and the sand must
be (piite dty. The chief advantage* of
packing in sand are, the exclusion of air
currents, the preservation from changes
of temperature, and the absorption of
moisture which favors decay. Muoli
will depend on the apartment in which
the experiment is tried, a dry or cool
one being best.
A HOT lemonade is one of the best
remedies for a cold, as it acts promptly
and efficiently, and has no unpleasant
after effects. One lemon should be
properly squeezed, cut in slices, put
with sugar and covered with half a pint
of boiling water. Drink just before
going to bed, and do not expose your
self on the following day. The remedy
will ward off; an attack of chills and fever
if it is used promptly.

As stages are quickly abandoned with

THE now reporter was sent to the
school exhibition. His reports read
pretty well; but there were a few things
in it which did not meet the approval of
the local editor—such, for instance, as
these: "The essays of the graduating
were pood, whoever wrote them;" "the
floral offerings were excessive, and frcm
the number received by Miss Bimple
gnsh we judge her father owns a first
class greenhouse;" "the young lady who
read the valedictory to the teacher*, has
in her the making of a fine actress. She
simulated sorrow so accurately that the
writer might have been misled had he
not subsequently heard the young lady
speak of this name 'dear teacher' as 'a
hateful old thing.'*'

Who knows that if the beautiful girl
who died *o young had been blessed with

disorders to which females are liable. By

A DILEMMA: An Austin boy had the
bad. habit of reading after he went to
bed, and leaving the candle burning,
much to the alarm of hia parents, who
were afraid he would set the house on
fire. As the boy did pretty much as he
pleased, his father told the colored boy
who waited on the table to go up into
the son's room after he had gone to sleep
and put ont the light, which programme
was carried out for several months. One
night, however, the parents of the boy
were aroused from a sound slumber by
the calling out: "Boh®, oh Boss! what
ami terdo?" "Merciful Moses! what
has happened?" "De boy has done—"
"Merciful heavens 1 has he set the house
on firo?" "No, but he put de light out
hisself. I want ter know what I'm
gwino ter do about hit?"

"YES, "said the bartender in a western
mining camp, "I water my liquor, and
have good reason for it, too. I don't
wan't to refuse a man a drink when he
is drunk, because he will get mad and
break things. So I water the liquor so
it won't make him any worse. As for
the sober ones, I water their liquor so
they won't get drunk at all. and oonse
qneutly I save a fight both ways,"
*„* l, Men are but sorry witnesses in their
own cause." The praise of Kidney-Wort
comes from the mouth of those who have
been made strong and healthy by it. Lis
ten: "It is curing everybody," writes a
druggist. "Kidney-Wort is the most
popular medicine we sell." It should be
by right, for no other medicine has such
specific action on the liver, bowels and
kidneys.
