How Wonmled 1en IN hair.
If a soldier is wounded h!s behavior
derwurts oq the manner in which be is
wounded and whether he ia of aqaiet
or excitable temper. Flesh wounds
received In 'action are in many cases
not felt at all, until the blood comes
and the ma a sets exhausted. When
the bone is struck the shock is great
and accompanied by acute pain. I
hare seen poor fellows struck in the
breast by min e balls remaining in ac
tion for minutes, then sinking oc their
knees or falling on their faces. Not all
such severe wounds are mortal. Ser
geant Ture of the Twelfth Missouri
received a ball which went right
through orth temples, and he lived for
years afterward ; a soldier who was
shot through the left lung lived for a
whole year ; General Shields was shot
through his breast in Mexico and reach
ed an advanced age. The worst bits
are of course those by canister and
round shot and are mostly mortal.
They take off arms or legs, or the bead
of a man, as was the case with the Cap
tain of a Southern battery in the battle
of 1'ea Ridge. Splinters of shells are
lees dangerous, but when thrown into
groups and columns may disable many
men. A single shell from a Paixhan
gun sent from Fort Duncan, Maryland
Heights, in my presence, to Bolivar
Heights, against a group of Sontbern
horsemen killed General Lewis and
wounded or killed nineteen of his com
panions. I have beard wounded sol
diers groaning under great pain, but I
never heard them crying oat or using
profane Ir.nguage. When baiting on
horser-ack on the right of the Twenty
fourth Massachusetts in the battle of
New-Market the regiment was under
Ore at close range for about forty min
ute?, losing 200 meu in killed and
wounded, but not a loud ery was heard
from those who were woundod.
A Mapeuduous Mystery.
vroctor declared that few even
among scientific men appreciate the
amazing mystery of the force we call
gravity. Wonderful as is the familiar
attraction of bodies to the earth, gravi
tation is altogether a greater mystery
when considered ad a property posessed
ty matter. The universality of the
property which belongs not rcere.'y to
this or that substance, but to every sub
stance, solid, liquid or gaseous, and not
to such aggregations of matter, but to
the ultimate molecules and atoms is an
amazing, if not an appalling mystery
llre is matter, which men call inert.
Lot merely possessing inherent force.
but with its whole texture instinct with
inherent, unexplained, probably inex
plicable power. But if the universality
of gravitation, and the Infinite ratge of
the force thus exerted by all matter are
wonderful, infinitely more wonderful is
tii instantaneous nature of its opcr
tlon. This quality of universal gravi
tation is indeed so wonderful that few
v. ! hvar of it for the first time can even
admit that it Is possible. Yet the ass
st rouomer Las been able to demonstrate
that the interval of time required for
gravity to extend Its action from one
body in space to any other body, even if
separated by a distance so great that
light ut 1S7.000 miles per second takes
thousands of years to cross it, is less
tt an auy iuUival which can be meas
ured. The Shamrock.
Tho emblem of Ireland Is not known by
Usil.)wer,but by its leaves. The tradi
tion runs that St. Patrick, wh;n preach
ing ia Ireland, gathered the leaves of
thia riant, which contains three lobes,
or leaves, and thus Illustrates the Holy
Tr'nity. Uentham, In his British
Flora, says that oxtails acetocella or
wood sorrel, 13 the original shamrock,
Laing pale pink, or nearly white
lowers. This Is quite plentiful in the
woods, and in a climate like Ireland.
e:.sy enough to obtain on the seven
teenth of March, the day that all Irish
men like to have a few sprigs for thoir
button hole, or on the cap or bonnet.
Others contented that the original plant
s a clover, and the plant that at pre
sent, at least, is the commonly accepted
plant, called the shamrock. There are
varieties of this plant that have larger
leaves than the common clover ; one
with dark brown, the other with purp
lish leaves, with a zone in each leaf.
This appears the kind most acceptable
for the purpose.
Polly as a Reformer.
Last summer there was a parrot In
Detroit, that used to stay out of doors
the greater part of the day. In the next
house was a scolding woman. She used
to scold every minute, either ber hus
band, oc the children, cr the cat, and
soon the parrot began to mimls her.
Between the two, the neighbors nearly
.went distracted. But pretty sobi the
woman stopped. She could hear the
parrot mocking her. Cries of "stop
your no!e," "Shut up," "Mind me.
sir!" "FIl strap you," made the air
vocal, bat as soon a Folly found cut
that she was hav:nj the fan all to her
self she stopped, too. Xow, not a word
of scolding ia heard and Folly sings arJ
whistles ber old time ditties, bhe'l
looked upon as an apostle of peace by
the neighbors.
Tub best way to ave liquid manure
Is to provide absorbents in the bam cel
lar. Excellent absorbents are dry
meadow muck, or dry sand or loam ;
these can be tmd in bedding. Sawdust
Is highly recoramenied, but whili It ia
a good absorbent it is cot valuable for
Its fertilizing quality. The liquid man
ure Is considered as one-half in fertiliz
ing value to the manure of the anima 1.

Cloth 3Iale r Cora Ho&ks.
One of the best utilir?d waste pro
ducts in Austria, reBuIUngr in the m ana-
fact ure of large quantities of paper and
cloth, are corn husks. These are boil
ed with an alkali in tubular boilers, as
a result of which the fibres of the bosks
are found at the bottom of the boiler In
a spongy condition, filled with glutin
ous substance, and which proves to be
a perfect dough of corn meal, contain
ing in a concentrated form all the pab-
lum originally contained in the busk.
The glutinous matter is pressed out
from the fibre by hydraulic apparatus.
leaviig the fibre in the shape of a mass
or chain of loDgitndal threads, inter
spersed with a dense mass of short fibre.
The linen made from the long fibre fur
nishes a very good substitute for the
coarser kinds of flax and hemp, and Is
superior to jute, gunny cloth, coir and
the like.
The paper, for which mostly the short
fibres are nsed the long fibres consti
tuting the material for spinning Is
stronger than papers of the rame
weight made from linen or cotton rags;
its hardness and firmness of grain ex
ceeding that of the best dipped English
drawing papers, being especially adapt
ed for pencil drawing, stenographic
writing and water colors ; its durabil
ity exceeds, it is claimed, that of paper
made from any other material, and the
corn husk parchment is not at exposed
points destroyed by insects ; If the glut
en is left in the pulp the paper can be
made extremely transparent without
sacrificing any portion of Its strength.
Again the fibre Is easily worked, either
alone or in combination with rags, Into
the finest writing or printing papejs ;
it also readily takes any tint or color,
and can be worked almost to as much
advantage Into stoat wrapping papers
of superior quality as into fine note and
envelope papers.
Water Essential for grinding Wheat.
One of the largest millers in the
United States. C. A. Tilsbury, Is credo
Ited with asserting that millers do not
dampen their wheat before grinding it.
This la correct o? some millers, bat not
of all, and the reason is not attributable
to differences In millers, but to differ
ences In wheat, if oat of the California
wheat ground In this state Is moistened
because It is necessary to do so. On the
other hand, Oregon wheat will net
stand dampening, as It contains enough
water without this treatment.
On this account local millers prefer
California wheat, as they can add the
necessary water for nothing, which
they hare to pay for In the Oregon ar
ticle. When shipped abroad or stored
for months at tidewater, there is leas
difference, as wheat which is not moist
will become so in a damp atmosphere.
California wheat when afloat gains two
to three per cent, from absorption cf
moisture. A certain percentage of
water in wheat Is essential to render It
fit for grinding, and the moisture has to
be eitbar found in the grain or applied
artificially thereto.
The Best Exercise for Children.
Instinctive gymnastics Is, from the
hygienic point of view, the best adapt
ed to the regular development of the
child. It is not liable to any of the ob
jections, we have brought against gym
nasties with apparatus. It cannot de
form the body, for It is made op of
spontaneous movements, and conform
ed to the natural oSce of each limb
It does not localize the work in a
particular region of the body, for all the
limbs are Instinctively invited to take
their queto of exercise ; and it does not
seduce the child Into efforts touching
upon the limits of his strength. In
stinct also invites him to the kind of
work which is best adapted to hij par
ticular aptUndes for resisting fatigue
He has a natural disposition to perform
light bat frequently recurring sets
quick motions, which put him oat of
breath, while exercises with apparatus
rather exact slow and intense efforts
that bring on local fatigue. Xow, all
observer have noticed the wonderful
facility with which a child recovers his
oreatb, and bis impatience of local fa
tigue. Finally, natural exercise, beln?
the satisfaction of a want, is by that
very fact a pleasure ; and joy shines In
the race of a child who is playing free
iy.
Highest 6tg-al Station.
4
The United States signal service
station at Pike's Teak is the highest
s'gnal station in the world, and is also
the highest inhabited portion of the
globe. It was opened la the month of
September, IS73. That it was a wise
provision or the Government In estab
lishing a signal station at this point is
no longer questioned, The fact having
already demonstrated its practicability,
and the present success promises that
Tike's Peak signal station is yet to
stand at the head of all astronomical
ana meteorological stations in the
world. This point is wonderfully favor
ed by nature for the study of astronomy
and meteorology. The rarity or the at
mosphere brings out a remarkable brll
liancy and clearness to the stars and all
the heavenly bodies. The nights are al
most always cloudless, and cloudy days
are the exception. Nine-tenths of the
storms are below the Peak.
A Flea for the Cigar.
An Alhany physician, whe is Borae
thing or an Investigator, says that smok
ing is not good for any mau so far as
his physical condition is concerned
that it is only cood to relieve raental
depression ; that It does so simply by
diverting a man's mind from himself
and from objects that worry him.
"nothing," said he, "requires more de
votion to it for its enjoyment than a
cigar. It la not the taste of tobacco
that one enjoys. It U looking at the
smoke, inhaling and smelling it, and
knocking off the ashes. All these
thinks divert the mind, and so drive
dull care away."
AN open shed wiUi a yard attached
will not answer for pigs in the winter
season. They should be well protected,
having a bouse with a door that can be
closed at night, and be provided with
plcMy of dry litter.

sights raderiicatta the Oceaa.
At a recent meetioe of tbe Xational
AcaJemj of Sciences !n New York,
rrofesaor A. E. Verrlll. of Yale col-
lege, described tbe physical and geolo
gical character of the sea bottom off
oar coast, especially that which lies
beneath the Gulf 8tream : The
depths of the ocean teem with life.
Shark, are sees by thousands, and
eoontleea dolphins ; bnt It seems
strange that not a fishbone is ever
dredged upon. A piece of wood may
be dredged op once a year, but it Is
Doneyeombed by the boring ebell fioh
and falls' to pieces at the toach of the
hand. This shows what destruction ia
constantly going on in these depths. If
a ship sinka at sea with all on board, It
would be eaten by fish with the excep
tion of the metal, and that would cor
rode and disappear. Not a bone of a
human body would remain after a few
days. It is a constant display of the
law of the survival of tbe fittest. Noth
ing made by the band of man w&a
dredged op after cruising for months in
the track of ocean vessels, excepting
eoai ciinxeri shoved overboard from
Bteamshlps.
As to this quantity of light at the
bottom of the sea there baa been much
dispute. Animals dredged from below
seven hundred fathoms either have no
eyes, or faint Indications of them, or
else their eyes are very large and pro
truding. Another strange thing la,
tbat if the creatures In thrum ir.Ar
depths have tny color, it is of oranue or
red, or reddish orange. Sea anemone,
corals, shrimp and crabs have this bril
liant color. Sometimes it Is pure red
or scarlet, and to many specimens in
ellnea toward purple. Not a ereen or
blue Sib la found. The orange red Is
the fish's protection, for tbe bluish
green light in the bottom of the ocean
makes the orange or red fish appear of a
neutral tint, aod hides It from its ena.
mles. Many animals are black, others
neutral In color. Some fish are pro
vided with boring tails, so that thev
can burrow In the mud. Finally, the
sunaoe or the aubmarnaa mountain is
covered with shells, like a aea beach,
showing tbat It la the eating house of
vast aenools or earnlvorous animals.
A. codfish take i a wbols oyster Into Its
mouth, cracks tbe shells, digests the
meat, and spits out the rest. Crabs
erack tbe shells and suck out the meat.
In that way come whole mounds cf
shells that are dredged cp."
Daniel Webster's Blue Suit.
Daniel Webster went to college In a
home spun suit, of which probably every
thread was carded, spun and woven by
bis mother's hand from the wool of
their own sheep. It was a dyed-in-the-
wool suit, and the color was Indigo
bins the old New England color. In
tbe Booth it Is butternut ; bat though
oar Yankee grandmothers and great-
great-grandmothers knew all about
what butternut bark would do, and tbe
subtile power for slate coler that lay In
nmaeh berries and bark of white
maple, and various dyes that root and
flower, bark and leaf could be made to
yield through the agency of vitrol and
alum and copperas to "set" them fast,
the universal stand-by was tbe blue
pot par excellence the "dye pot" that
stood in tbe chimney corner of every
kitchen worth naming.
So Wsbster was fitted out in Indigo
blue from collar to ankle nnbAcoming
for bis swart akin and sent off graad
and sophomorlc Before reaching Han
over, there came on one of those drench
ing rains when, like the Scottish mists,
wet a man to the skin. The suit held
Its own (for has not indigo blue been
'warranted fast" since first indigo was
heard of ?) but It bad parted with
enough so that Daniel, too, was dyed
bine from bead to foot.
Daniel Webster bad a liberal stratum
of sentiment In bis make-up ; and for
this reason this color of bis young man
hood became bis favorite wear through
life. lie wore blue coats to his dying
day. If any one ever saw him in a dif
ferent one, the fact has not been put on
record.
East in Wheat and Other Grain.
Investigations made at the Guelph
(Canada) Agricultural college, regard
ing tbe causes of rust In wheat and
other. grains seem to justify the follow
ing conclusions :
1. Seasons are the chief cause of ru3t:
sudden changes of tempeiature and
rain, accompanied with close, still
weather, are favorable to its increase.
2. Low lying rich soils are most sub
ject to attack.
3. An excessive use of manures rich
In nitrogen encourages the diseaas.
., 4. Late sown grain is most subject to
attack.
5. Tblnly sown crops seem most lia
ble to Id jury.
. 6. Rod wheats are leas affected than
white varieties.
7. Rust is more common In tbe vicin
ity barberry edges than at a distance.
Tsrkeyt la California.
In California turkeys are raised In
flocks numbering several thousand.
They are placed in charge of a herder,
who drives them as he would a flock of
sheep. They range over miles of terlto
ry in a day, and live almost entirely by
foraging. Whea tbe grain Is cut and
harvested tbe turkeys are turned into
the immense wheat and barley fields,
and the birds do the gleaning, and be
come fat and ready for market at very
little cost.
BrPPs and llyer ComplaUw.

distressing complaints. If too think so eali

One mode of keeping rats out of a

the barn or stable, digging a narrow
trench for the purpose and then refilling
