to Insect Pests on the Farm. In hef "Guido to Methods of Insect Life'' 3I!sa Eleanor A. Ormeroil, con sulting otomologist to tho Royal Agri cultural Society, divide the insect enemies of tlio farm into three orders, which aro subdivided and classified in n manner readily understood by non scientific readers. Of wirowornis she says i "Tho skip-jacks, or click beet le.?, do little if any harm in tho bectlo state, but in tho grub state that is, what wo know ns wiroworms tho mischief and loss they causo to tho country are boyond calculation. Tho wiroworms will feed on tho roots of al most all farm crops excepting mustard, and llvo for flvo years before thoy oeaso eating to turn to chrysallds and thenco to click beetles. They nro . . . commonly of a yellowish color, and tako their iiatno from their great likeness to a short, thick piece of flat tened wire. Tho click beetles aro of many, kinds, and commonly about a quarter to half an inch long and about a third of that in breadth, and of a brownish color, and tako their name from their power of regain'mc their position when laid on their backs by a sudden jerk or skip into tho air, accom panied by a click. Tho femalo beetles lays her eggs on, or a little beldw, tho surfaco of tho ground amongst leafage and roots, and especially in such places a9 grass meadows or clover leys, where tho surfaco is undisturbed for a time, possibly for years, and consequently tho ground below swarms with wire worms of all ages. When tho pastures aro broken up theso tough-skinned grubs aro in no way hurt, but remain in the ground ready to feed on each succeeding crop that is put in until tho timo for their change comes . . . . To prevent egg-laying tho ground should bo mado as unsuitablo as it can bo for the purpose. It is advised to feed down tuo grass as bare as possiblo fold theep on it, gradually moving the hurdles forward so that every part of tho field may he thoroughly trodden. Tho sheep in this case are fed with turnips and other regular feeding stuffs, and the amount of liquid and other manuro thus worked into the land thoroughly prevents tho field beiug inviting for eggs to bo laid on it and de stroys any that might bo upon tho sur face." From this it would appear that ploughing the land in tho fall would favor tho increase of wiroworms, since the looso soil would afford a suitablo place of refuge for them. Miss Orrae rod has this in mind when ehe says : "It is advised to plough in good timo in autumn, and work tho land well so as to get it in good order and consolidated, and, either by burning, rotting, or whatever means may bo preferred, prevent it being kept open and full of harbors for wiroworms ; stubble and roots, cabbage stalks or bean-haulm, and all such matters arc wireworm helpers." Barnyard manure is often found to harbor wireworms j but thoroughly salting it wdl destroy the pest. Dangers of Breathing Through the Month. A paper recently read before tho Canada Medical association in Mon treal treats of tho causes, serious con sequences, prevention and cure, of what the writer terms buccal breathing in plain English and moro correctly, breathing through the mouth. As it is the fate of all hobby riders, sooner or later, his hobby has run away with him, and ho undoubtedly exaggerates the serious consequences of tho habit against which he inveighs. Neverthe less enough remains, after making duo allowance for bis enthusiasm, to war rant both tho public and tho medical profession in paying more attention to the subject than is usually done. Ath letes, professional trainers, hunters, mountaineers, all physicially strong and perfect men, habitually breathe through tho nostrils. Ono may breathe mephilio gases or the smoko of a burn ing building for a short time through the nose if th'o lips be kept tightly closed, when he would quickly suffo cate if he attempted to breathe through tho open mouth. The function or sense of smell, which is commonly consider ed the chief end of a man's nose, is really a very subsidary part of its busi ness. Through the nose the air is puri fied, tempered and moistened before it reaches tho sensitlvo larynr and lungs. Foreign and irritating particles are arrested in their passago through the nasal cavities j tho temperature of the air is raised to that of the body, while it is moistened by tho secretions of tho membrane which lines it laby rinths and of tho glands which it lodges. The dust which loads a city'a otmos phere filth in an impalpable powder finds ready access to tho upper portion of tho air tubes and gullet through the mouth, but 11 almost entirely deposited on the moist mucus surfaces of the .winding, shell-like nasal passages in proper breathing. Tho usual effect of the first mouthful of cold air in a sharp winter atmosphere is to provoko a cough and a prompt closure of the lips to guard the sensitive structures of tho larnyx and vicinity, and there are few who havo not awakened in tho morn ing with dry, harsh tongue, throat and palate when from any cause nasal re spiration has bec'n impeded during sleep, tho secretion of tho mouth being neither suitable nor suflicient to keep tho surfaces moist under such circum stances. Catarrh and throat affections aro much less common nmong those who keep tho mouth shut and habitual ly breathe through the nostrils. Cti cago Neies. Rhine's Consistency. Mr. lilaine soon forgets his unto clection pledges of devotion to Ameri can industry and contempt for Eng land and tho English. Ho is to have his picture hung, at tho expense of tho goyerumeut, in tho Stato Department, in company with tho pictures of the others who havo been incumbents of that office. As is customary, the selec tion of tho artist who is to paint the picture, has been left to himself, and he has just chosen for tho perfor mance of that task one, Mr, Archer, a genuiuu John Bull, who has only been in this country a few months, und who is still a subject of tho Queen of Great Britain, Mr. Archer is said to be a very clever gentleman and can probab ly paint an, excellent jiicture. Bui there aro any number ot American nr t'sts who aro equally clever gentlemen and who can paint quite exoellent pictures, and under such ciicumstances, if Mr. Iilaiiio,wtro a man who cared anything for consistency, ho would fiaye seen that oce of them got the con tract.

A Thrilling Experience. ltr.MAltKAlll.i: STATEMENT OF I'MtSONAt l.ANOl'.Il AND VKOVlllENTIAI. r.SDAl'K. Tho following storv which is at tracting wido attention from tho prct is so rcmnrkablo that we cannot ex cuse ourselves if wo do not lay it be fore our readers, oven though its length would ordinarily precludo its admission to our limited space. n itif Xitltor Itochetter (.V. r".) Democrat i Slit, On the first dsv of June, 1881, I lav at my resldenco In this city sur rounded by my friends and walling for death. Heaven only knows tho ngony I tli.ui endured, for words can never describo it. And yet, if n fow years previous any ono had told mo that I wan to bo brought so low, and by so terriblo a disease, I should havo scof fed at tho idea. 1 had always been uncommonly strong and healthy, and weighed over 200 pounds and hardly know, in my own experience, what pain or sickness were. Very many people who will read this statement realize at times that they aro unusually tired and cannot account for it. Thoy feel dull pains in various parts of tho body and do not understand it. Or they aro exceedingly hungry ono day and entirely without appetite tho next. This was just tho way I felt when tho relentless malady which hart lastcnert itself upon me first began. Still I thought nothing of it ; that probably I had taken a cold which would soon pass away. Shortly after this I noticed a heavy, and at times neuralgic, pain in one side of my head, but as it would como ono day and bo gono tho next, I paid little attention to it. Then my stomach would get out of order and my food often failed to digest, causing at times great inconvenience. Yet, even as a physician, I did not think that theso things meant anything eeri ous. I fancied I was suffering from malaria and doctored myself accord ingly. But I got no better. I next noticed a peculiar color and odor about the fluids I was passing also that thero were largo quantities ono day and very little the next, and tli&t a per sistent froth and scum appeared upon the surface, and n sediment settled. And yet I did not realizo my danger, for, indeed, seeing theso symptoms continually, I finally became accustom ed to them, and ray suspicion was wholly disarmed by the fact that I had no pain in tho affected orgariB or in their vicinity. Why. I should havo been so blind I cannot understand. I consulted tho best medical skill in tho land. I visited all the famed min eral springs in America and traveled from Maino to California. Still I grow worse. No two physicians agreed as to my malady. One said I was troubled with spinal irrita tion j another, dyspepsia, another, heart disease ; another, g e n eral debility ; another congestion of tho base of tho brain ; and so on through a long list of common diseases, the symptoms of many of which I real ly had. In this way several years passed, during which timo I wa9 stead ily growing worse. My condition had really become pitiable. My weight had been reduced from 207 to 130 pounds. My life was a burden to my self and friends. I could retain no food on my stomach, and lived wholly by injections. I was a living mass of pain. My pulse was uncontrollable. In my agony I frequently fell to the floor and clutched the carpet, and pray ed for death. Morphine had littlo or no effect in deadening the pain. For six days and nights 1 had the death premonitory hiccoughs constantly. My water was filled with tube-casts and albumen. I was struggling with Bright's Disease of the kidneys in its last stages! While suffering thus I received a call from my pastor, the Itev. Dr. Foote, at that time rector of St. Paul's Episcopal Church, of this city. I felt that it was our last interview, but in tho courso of conversation Dr. Footo detailed to mo tho many remarkable cures of cases like my own which had come under his observation, by means of a remedy, which ho urged mo to try. As a practicing physician and a graduato of tho schools, I derided the idea of any medicine outside the chan nels being in the least benpficial. So solicitous, however, was Dr. Foote, that I finally promised I would waive ray prejudice. I began its use on the first day of June, 18S1, and took it ac cording to directions. At first it siok- kened me : but this 1 thought was a good sign for ono in a debilitated con dition. I continued to take it ; tho sickening sensation departed and I was hnaiiy able to retain tood upon my stomach. In a few days I noticed a decided change for the better, ns also did ray wife and friends. My bio coughs ceased and I cxperiencd lets pain than formerly. I was so rejoiced at this improved condition that, upon what I had believed but a few days before was ray dying bed, I vowed, in tho presence of my family and friends, should I recover I would" both publicly and privately make known this remedy for tho good of humanity, wherever and whenever I had an opportunity, and this letter is in fulfilmnet of that vow. My improvement was constant from that time, and in less than three mouths I had gained 20 pounds in flesh, beta mo entirely free from pain and I believe I owo my life and present condition wholly to War ner's Safe Cure, the remedy which I UBed. Since my recovery I havo thorough ly re-investigatcd the subject of kidney ditlioiilties and Bright's disease, and tho truths developed aro astounding. I thereforo state, deliberately, and as a physician, that I believe more than one-half the deaths which occur in America are caused by JirighCs dis ease of the kidneys. This may sound like a rash statement, but I am prepar ed to fully verify it. Blight's diseaso has no dhtinctivo symptoms of its own indeed, it olten develops without any pain whatever in tho kidneys or their vicinity,) but has the symptoms of nearly overy other common complaint. Hundreds of peoplo dio daily, whole burials are authorized by a physician's certificate as occurring from "Heart Disease," "Apoplexy," "Paralysis,1' "Spinal Complaint," "Rheumatism," "Pneumonia," and other complaints, when in reality it is from Bright's dis easo of the kidneys. Fow physicians, and fewer people, realize the extent of this diseaso or its dangerous and ineid nous nature. It steals into the system liko a thief, manifests its presence if at all by tho commonest symptoms and fastens itself upon the constitution before tho victim is aware of it. It is uearly as hereditary ns consumption and fully as fatal. Entire families. In heriting it from their ancestors, have died, and yet nono of the number knew or realized; the mysterious power whiuh was removing them. Instead of com mon symptoms it often shows none whatever, but brings death suddenly, from convulsions, apoplexy or heart disease. As ono who bus suffered and knows by bitter experience what he says, I Implore every ono who reads THE COLUMBIAN AND theso words not to neglect tho slightest symptoms of kidney difficulty. Cer tain agony and probable death will bo tho sure result of snob neglect, and no one can afford to hazard such chances. I am nware that such an unqualified statement as this, coming from me, known ns I nm throughout tho entire laud ns ft practitioner and lecturer, will nrotisb tho surprise) nnd possiblo ani mosity of tho medical profession and astonish all with whom I am acquaint ed, but I make the foregoing Btato ments based upon facts which I nm prepared to produco and truths which I can substantiate to tho letter. Tho welfare of thoso who may possibly he sufferers suoh as I wns, is an ample In ducement for me to take tho step I have, and if I can successfully watu others from the dangerous path in which I once walked, I am willing to enduro all professional and personal consequence. J. B. IIENION, M. D. Rochester, N. Y., Dec. 30. Gambled Into Slavery, There are ten kinds of legalizod gamboling in Siam, and so absorbed do tho Siamese become, in gaming that when their money nnd personal effects aro gono tbey will stake their own bodies on tho turn of tho game, going into voluntary slavery if thoy lose. In this event before ho is permitted to lcavo tho place, tho gambler must sur render himself, in feu siuiplo to his owner, who procures from the Amphor (District Judge) a san kromatan (deed) in which, among other stipulations, ho bindi himself to render such services as may bo required until tho pecuniary obligation is discharged. The owner may also exact interest on tho amount of indebtedness at the rate of fifteen per cent, per annum, but no more, as this is tho highest rato the king per mits his subjects to charge. If a great er sum is demanded, and tho fact can be established by acceptable testimouy in a native court, the debt is cancelod and the slave becomes freo. If for any reason ho becomes dissatisfied with his ownor, or master, which is of ten tho ease, he may securo another one by transferring tho deed, without ask ing tho consent of the owner, provided the redemption or "taking over" (as tho Siamese express tho transaction) is mado in pursuanco of law. If ho can prove to the satisfaction of tho district pjdgo that his wife possesses tho requi site" amount, he may apply to the court for an order compelling her to pay the debt and thus redeem him from servi tude ; but, inasmuch as the government is not supposed to eucourago gambling with a wife's money, the law requires that the assignment of the san kromatan shall bo mado to tho wife ; so that, when possessed of this formidable do cument, with tho official scale duty at tached, she becomes the absoluto and bona fide owner of her husband by an Indisputable title which nothing but a royal decreo can possibly annul. The Current. American Carriages Abroad. There is a steady demand for car riages to be exported to South Ameri can States, the West Indies' and South Africa. Every carriage is mado on an order from tho purchaser. Only wealthy government officials or mine or plantation owners are able to buy carriages in America. The demand comes mostly irom too West indies and from tho Pacific shore of South' America. Carriages sent to South America are usually large, four-wheeled family con veyances, covered to keep off the scorching rays of tho sun. The top and sides ot the cover are of heavy white watorproot cloth, lorming a part of tho carriage lop. Carriages sent to South America aro mado as heavy and strong as possible becatiso of the con dition of the mountain road-i, Thev are so rough that a carnage liko those which are trundled around Central Park would be knocked to pieces. Tho first cost of a carriage m How York city is only a small part of its cost when it reaches its purchaser. From a manufactory m this citv recent ly a carriage which cost $500 was sent to Bogota, South America. On land ing it at the coast town the carriage was taken apart as much as possible and each piece was packed on the back of an Indian. Thenco thero was a long and tedious journey up tho mountains. The final cost to tho purchaser was not less than $1,500 Spkeh op the Arab Hokse-.TIio pop ular notion about the speed of the Arab courser is, I think, erroneous. Great speed is not his strong point ; the chances are that on any ordinary raco course tho best Avab in tho world would be beaten by a second-rate Eng lish raco horise. These Arabs wero not, of course, first-rato specimens of the race, but they were certainly not bad ones. A fortnight or so after ward, when I was at Tebessa, the com mandant showed me an English thor oughbred, which, ho said, had easily run awav from overv Arab ho had ever tried him against. But what was far more remarkable about this horse was that onco acclimatized and accus tomed to the hard life and hard fare of the Arab horses ho quite equaled them in hardiness and endurance, as had been proved in the course of many' expeditions and tours of inspection among the tribes of the district. Lon don Society. "Tho local paper," Bays Wbitelaw Hotel, "is tho best read paper in tho world. All the Oity papers cannot sup ply the dace of tho home paper.
