p.uvi'.'j'" ajvail Cholera Inf antum.
Choli'.nt Tnfitntum (Summer Com
plaint) is tli'.' 1 Icro 1 of l.irjrc Amcricnn
-itic! m iliis lalitmle during the sum
nicr season. In the city of l'hiladel
phia it r vises about one twentieth of
all the tle.itlis for the entire year, ami
one sixth of all the deaths of infants
undcr two years of age i and this
wholesale destruction of infant life
takes place in the short spac.; of two
months. Continued high temperature,
night and day, appears to be its essen
tial cause. It is important, therefore,
r'-rst : To keep the child cool, and,
secondly, to keep its food (milk) cool.
(Infants at the breast are much less
liable to be attacked than those
brought up by hand. Therefore,
nurse the baby through the second
cummer, if possible.) To accomplish
the first object, allow the baby to
drink freely ol cool (not excessive
roUl) water ; bathe it frequently in cool
or hike warm water, two or three
times a day if the thermometer is above
oo : keep it in the open air in the
shade ; take it into the country or out
on the water as often as possible,
Let it wear a very thin flannel under
shirt, or if not this, a flannel belly
band.
To accomplish the second, get your
milk from a dairy where it ts kept on
ice, keep as little on hand as possible
and keep it on ice if possible
As soon as you get it, boil it for a few
minutes and then add a tablespoonful
of lime water to every pint. If the
child is seized suddenly with diarrhoja,
stop its milk at once, and feed it on
raw white of eyg, gelatine, barley
water ami meat or chicken broth : and
do not give again until the diarrhu-a
has stopped. If possible go away with
it to the country at once, or if you
live m the country, go to the moun
tains. Change ot air has saved thous
ands of childrens' lives in this disease.
Never try to tre:tt looseness of the
bowels 1:1 a baby in hot weather your
self, but send at once for a doctor,
All precautions as to the necessity for
dealing up the house, cellar and yard
in expectation of cholera, are impor

investigation. No matter where it

Precautions against Cholera Morbus, Sum
mer Diarrhoea and Dysentery.
All of these well known diseases occur
principally during the summer and
autumn.
Cholera Morbus is caused by im
proner food and sudden rhillintr of tlw
body alter exposure to great heat.
v-enain suustances will produce it in
certain persons, such for instance as
veal, raw milk taken with fish, or shell
fish, and all dishes cooked with milk,
such as rice pudding, cream puffs and
even ice cream, irl,en kept too long.
Unripe and over ripe fruit, especially
if taken with large draughts of ice
water, will also cause it. But sound,
ripe fruit is a natural food in hot
weather, and wholesome. Avoid be
coming chilled during sleep. In a
climate as changeable as ours, a light
blanket should always be at hand, to
be drawn up in case it suddenly be
comes cold during the night. Persistent
summer niARRiiiKA is usually caused
by malaria, sewer air or impure water.
The conditions liable to contaminate
air and water should be carefully
sought out and remedied as indicated
m speaking of Asiatic cholera. The
water can be rendered safe by boiling.
As dvxextlry is often epidemic, it is
wise to consider every case as a pos
sible source of danger to others, and
to disinfect the discharges with the
same care and in the same manner as
already directed for those of Asiatic
cholera.
A law was enacted by the Legislature
,879 to encourage the setting out of
ieS along our public thoroughfares,
the law is to the effect that any per
son liable to a road tax, who shall
transplant to the side of the public
"ghway on his own premises, any
"nit tree, or shade or forest trees,
shall be allowed by the supervisor of
rads in abatement of his road tax,
one dollar for every four trees set.
As the season for transplanting tree is
at hand it might be well to hunt up
this law and derive some benefit from
it.

A Strarge Discovery.
On the farm of the Russell Heirs
near Allenwood, says the West Milton
Guide, a well is being dfilled by
Mr. Adam Grove's men. After they
reached the depth of eighty-two feet, a
vacuum in the earth was discovered
and a continual draft passes up
through the well. So strong is the
dratt at times that if water is poured
into the well it will be blown out
Stones were thrown down the well to
fill up the vacunm, but the stone dis
appeared. The well Is now 1 1 1 feet
deep. The rock at the bottom of
the well is charged with magnetism.
If the sand pump be dropped down, it
will take a strong pull to loosen it
from the rocks. It will be charged so
heavy with magnetism that if nails
or any small pieces of iron be
thrown against it, they will stick fast
to it.

The Flint of Thing Too Seldom
Consld.rsil.
Seldom have meu or women tho fac
ulty of grasping all tho details of their
own ftppenrauce; ware the ability to do
this 1pm rure, we should not be amused
or pained, aa the case may be, by absurd
vagaries in the way of dies. A small,
thin man will put on a high hat under
the Impression that it makes him Ionic
taller, while in reality it only make dim
present the appearance of a pair of "eli
sors under a thimble. A tall, thin
woman will wear a bat, in itself becom
ing, but which, taking her height and
slenrierness into the question, gives her
all the appearance of a church spire.
Her stout sister, who has a round, broad
face, affects headgear resembling a tur
ban is closely as tbe fashion will permit,
and in consequence seems to lose several
inches of her height This principal run
through the question of manner quite as
much ns that of drees. The elephantine
woman adopts the kittenish ways which
are laughable In one of her appenrance.
The diminutive man drop his voice w ith
great exertion into a heavy bass, and as
sumes a majestic carriage that is suitable
for nothing short of six feet. But in
nothing is this lack of taste to call it by
no harsher name more noticeable, than
in the selection of songs made by the
arernge amAteur singer. Imagine a
young woman whose general appearance

seeching her hearers to lay her "among

one of that audience, should they meet
these performers, will remember the un
fortunate evening when they sane; these
incongruous songs, and the absurd figure

In countries where military conscrip
tion exists, men preteud to be afflicted in
divers ways in order to escape service.
Pretended inability to see is exposed by
the surgeons without difficulty, but pre
tended deafness sometimes baffle the
examiners. A counter trick on the part
of the officers was for some time effec
tive against this fraud. The recruiting
officer, after a conscript had pretended
to be deaf, remarked, in an ordinary
tone of voice, "You aro unflt for the ser
vice; you are free. " In many cases the
recruit showed by evident sizns of sat
isfaction that he had heard the remark.
He was then recalled, told that he had
been detectod in his fraud, and sent to
the barracks. After a time, however,
the conscripts became too wary to be
caught in the trap. They had heard of
the trick, and were on the lookout for
this remark, and when it was uttered
they made no sign of intelligence. A
new trap has therefore been invented by
French officers, the success of which is
a curious illustration of the ingrained
courtesy, on the part of Frenchmen of
all classes. After the "You nre free "has
failed to excite any sign of understand
ing in the recruit's face, the command
to go is shouted at him. He starts out
of the room, the door of which is held
open by mechanical means. As he
peases through it, the officer says:
"You might at leant shut the door!"
This little unjust impeachment of the
miiu'H politeness is said in nine cases
out of ton of pretendud deafness to re
sult iu n quick turning of tbe man's
head. He u then called hack, and told
that he has been found fit for the ser
vice. An Aurrdol of Rinilll,
Anocdotesof Rossetti are just now "in
the air. " Here is one : He went one
day with a friend for a stroll through
the poorer quarters of the town, and was
greatly attracted by the ehope in Seven
Dials. Outaide one he saw in a cage a
curious round ball of spikes.
"What is the pries ot that?"
"Half a crown."
"Could you get me some more of
them!"
"Certainly."
"Well, let ma have twenty to-morrow
ovening. "
The retail dealer, whose stock consisted
of a few linnets, a chaffinch or two and
four or five staggering larks, looked
aghast
Said his friend on tho way home:
"What on earth did you want with all
those hedge-hogs?"
"I'll put them in my garden," said
Rossetti, "and when fellows come to see
my pictures they'll pass through the gar
den. ' Look at this little round ball,' one
of them will say ; ' why, it's alive. And
here's another! and here's a third! Why,
the garden is full of them.' And then
they'll bo iu such good spirits at the dis
covery that they'll buy my pictures!"
How Garfield We Icartd.
Secretary Foster has been telling some
queer secrets about President Garfield,
with whom ha was on terms of the clos
est intimacy. As illustrating his fear of
the newspapers a summer night incident
at Wiilard's Hotel in Washington is re
called, when a party of Mr, Garfield's in
timate friends got together in one of the
upper rooms faoing Newspaper row and
.began playing a game of cards with a
10 cent ante. It was hot, and the whole
party had their coats and vests off and
their sleeves rolled up to the elbows.
The windows were wide open, and by
the gaslight anybody could look in on
the game from across the street Sud
denly a messenger boy came to the door
with a message, which read thus: "Im
mense excitement ou Newspaper row, A
big crowd is watching your little game.
Pools are being sold on the result, and
the boys are sending despatches out over
the country concerning it " Tbe mes
sage was read aloud, and it scared Mr,
Oarfiold half out of his boots, Of course
it was a bogus message, but it was hard
to make Mr. Garfield believe it was not
genuiue, and it spoiled all his fun that
summer night.
