Small rox How to Prevent Contagion.
1. On the first appearance of the disease,
the patient should be placed in a separate
apartment, as near the top of the house
as possible, irom which curtains, carpets,
bed-hangings, and other needless articles
of furniture should be removed, and no
person except the medical attendant and
the nurse or mother be permitted to enter
we room.
2. A basin containing a solution of
chloride ol lime, or carbolic acid, should be
placed near the bed for the patient to spit
in.
3. Handkerchief not to be used, but
pieces of rag employed instead, for wiping
the nose of the patient. Each piece, after
being used, should be immediately burned.
4. A plentiful supply of water and tow

whose hands ot necessity, will be soiled
by the secretions of the patient. In one
nand-basin the water should be Impre,

which the taint on tne nanus may at once

5. Outside the door of the sick-room a
f heet should be suspended, so as to cover
the entire doorway ; this should be kept
constantly wet witn a solution oi nme.

subject In the. future, and I trust, successfully,
liy reason of four years' experience In the olllce.
ii lieu my nisi term oi inc olllce ot t;ntct Rxecu
live began, the country had not yet recovered
from tlieelh-cts of a (Treat Internal revolution, and
three or four States of the ITnlon had not been re
stored to their federal relations. It seemed to
me wise tlmt no new question slKrtlld be raised so
long as that condition of affiilrs existed! therefore,
the past four vears. so far as I could control
events, have been consumed in efforts Io restore
harmony, public, credit, commerce, and all the
arls of peace and prepress.
It is mv firm conviction that the r.lvllizril world
Is tending towards Republicanism or government
by the people, and that our great Republic Is de
stined to be the guiding star Io all others. Under
our Kcpiiniic wc support less oi an army man
does any Kuropeun power of any standing and a
navv less than thut of at least live of them. There
couid be no extension of territory on this conti
nent which would call tor an increase of this
force, but rather might such extension enable us
to diminish it.
The theory ol government changes Willi gen
eral progress. Now Ihat the telegraph is nia.le
avniluhle for communicating thought, together
Willi the rauid transit of steam, all parts of the
continent are made continuous for all purposes
of government, and communication uetween
the extreme limits of the country Is made
easier than It was throughout the old thirteen
States lit the beginning of our nnlional ex
istence. The effects of the late civil war, have
been to free the slave, and make him a citizen,
'yet hp is not possessed of the civil rights which
citizenship should carry with It. This Is wrong,
and should be corrected. To this correction I
stand committed so fur as the Kxecutive Inlluence
is concerned. Social eipiality Is not a subject to
lie legislated upon, nor shall I ask that anything
be done to advance the social status of the 'color
ed man, except to give him a chance to develop
what is in him. tiive him access to the schools,
and when he travels let him feel assured that his
conduct will regulate the treatment and fu re he
will receive.
i he States lately at war with the tJeneral Gov
ernment are now 'happily rehabilitated, and no
Kxecutive control is exercised In any one ol them
that would not be exercised ill any other State
under like circumstances. In the llrst year of
the pint Administration the proposition came up
for the admission of San Domingo as a territory
of thel'inou. It wasnot a que.-tion of my seek
ing, but was a proposition from the people of
Sun Domingo, which I entertained, anil believe
now, as I did then, that it was for the best inter
ests of the country and for Hie people of San Do
mingo and all concerned, that tlie proposition
should be received favorably. It was, however,
rejected, ronslitutionally, and therefore the sub
ject was never brought up again by me.
In future, while I hold my present olllce, the
subject of acquisition of territory must have the
support of the people before I "will recommend
any proposition looking to such acquisitions.
However, I do not share the apprehension held by
many us to the danger of governments becoming
weakened and destroyed by reason of acquisition
of territory. Commerce, education and rapid

In gathering sap where tlie trees are
clase together, it is a good plan in order
to prevent mistakes and save labor, to
paint one side of your buckets white. The
lirst round you make in gathering, turn
the red side out; the second the white

to the tree a second time, nor miss one, as
you may see the gathering you have done

The camp should be centrally located.

most complete camps we ever knew, in an
Eastern btate, the sap was carried in pipes
as water Hows, llie pipes beingdisconneot
ed at the close of the season, cleaned and
carefully laid away to dry.
When the sap is put to boiling, it should
not bo allowed to flag, but the process
should bo driven as strongly and evenly
as possible, until a sufficient quantity of
syrup is obtained tor straining, which is
usually performed through clean, thick
woolen strainers. This operation being

to allow Impurities to settle, the clearer
portion is poured off for sugaring. It
is boiled until the air escapes in puffs, the
proper consistency being ascertained by
taking a little of the m-tss on a piece of
glass and observing the granulation on
cooling. This is also known by taking a
little between the thumb and finger, press
ing them together and drawing them
apart : the films will adhere and may be
drawn out thin and will be brittle. It
may also be dropped into cold water, and
if tlie mass of wax breaks readily unon

sugar. Caked sugar is supposed to be
stronger and to retain its flavor better
than grained sugar.
Tho residue, or that rcmalninsr after

milk to ten gallons of syrup and skim off
the scum or froth as it reaches the boiling

If molasses is wanted, it should not be
boiled so long as for sugar. If a teaspoon-

carefully sealed it will keep perfectly.
In boiling sap, eopper or brass kettles
are f ir preferable to iron but if these are
used, the most scrupulous rare must be
exerted to prevent tarnishing. They
must be kept perfectly bright since the

Cerchro-Splual Meningitis.
During tlie first half of last year eight
hundred persons in New York were at

of the number, six hundred died. Phy

meningitis, which being interpreted
means an inflammation of the membranes
enveloping the brain and spinal chord.

Tho Sun's Distance.
At present tlie distance from the earth
to the sun is reckoned at ninety-two mil
lions of miles, with a margin of error of
about live hundred thousand miles. It is
for the main purpose of reducing this
margin, by tit least one half, that the ob
servations ol the coming transit of Venus
are to ho undertaken. In a recent lecture
on "Tlie Constitution of the Sun." Pro
fessor l oung made use of tlie following
curious illustration, in order to aid his
hearers in forming an idea of the sm's
distance. "Vou know," lie states "that,
if you touch a part of t'.ie body, one does
not feel it instantly. If you' touch the
hand of any one with a pin, it will be an
apprec iable part of a second before lie
will feel it and draw ills hand back. Now,
if I had an arm long enough to reaeli to
the sun. and should put my lingers into
the solar flame, and burn them there, it
would be a hundred years before I would
find it out. and another hundred years be
fore I could remove my hand. Such i.s
tlie distal. ce of the sun, and yet, across
that space, the earth responds to every
impulse of the solar surface." An illus
tration of this character, while it dieted
the applause of the audience, failed, we
doubt not, to convey to many any more
t'eflnite idea of this immense distance than
that obtained from the simple statement
of tlmt distance in English miles. Apple-

Scrap Iron.
Mani factukers should look well to
their scrap iron ; do not waste a piece, ne
matter how small ; gather all together
assort, have different receptacles for steel
wrought, cast and malleable iron. The
wrought iron from tlie carriage shop is
the most valuable of scrap iron, but to
bring the highest price there must be no
malleable or east iron mixed with it ;
every pound of scrap has a market value,
and it should be packed in barrels or
boxes and sent to market. If there be
any considerable quantity, it will pay to
send it to the mills and have it worked
up into bars. It is the small manufactur
ers who do not take care of their scrap,
but allow year after year to pass without
flaying any attention to it, und scraps of
ro'n can be found all over their, factories,
while boxes and out of tlie way corners
are tilled with it, and hundreds of dollars
of what would make the best of bar iron
is allowed to go to waste. Scientific Amer

When we try to fasten brackets, strips
of wood, etc, to plaster walls by means of
screws, it is often found impossible to
make sere vs' hold firmly. When we
turn them in, tlie plaster'breaks out and
our labor Is in vain. And yet, a screw
well set into a plaster wall will hold very
firmly. The best plan is to enlarge
the hole to about twice the diametvr of
the screw, fill it with plaster of Paris,
such as is used for fastening tlie tops of
lamps, etc., and bed the screw in tlie soft
plaster. When the plaster hasset, the
screw will be held very strongly.

Dry Method of Ci.eanino soilkd Faii-

etc., from wool and other raw material,

best bv the so-called drv-method rather
than by tlie use of n. watery solution of
soup or other alkaline substance, mis
originally consisted in subjecting the ar
ticles in a proper apparatus to immersion
In benzine, gasoline, bisulphide of car
bon, etc., with continued rotation of the
apparatus. More recently, however, it
has been ascertained that the vapor of
these substances, caused by distillation,
is more efficient than the liquid substances
themselves, the articles thus treated be
ing much more rapidly penetrated, and
more thoroughly, than in the old way.
The articles are placed upon a grating
over the liquid, the vapor from which
permeates them completely as it is car
ried over into tlie reservoir, where it is
condensed and collected. In this form it
contains grease in solution, which may
be removed by a second distillation, while
the hydro-carbon is obtained in a form for
further use. Harper' s Magazine fur March.
Improved Liquid Glue. An im
proved liquid glue, according to the Jour
nal o f Applied Chcmhtry. may be prepared
by dissolving three parts of glue, broken
into small pieces.in twelve to tilteen parts
of saccliarate of lime. On warming, the
glue dissolves rapidly, and remains liquid
when cold, without losing its strength.
Any desirable consistency may be secured
by varying the amount of saccliarate of
lime. 'The thicker glue keeps its muddy
color, the thin becomes clear, on stand
ing. Tho saccliarate of lime is prepared
by taking one part of loaf-sugar and dis
solving it in three parts of water, adding
to the sugar one-fourth part of its weight
of slacked lime, and heating the whole to
1-15 dog. or Wo deg. and allowiug it to
macerate for several days, with frequent
shaking. The greater "part of the lime
will be thus dissolved, and the solution
rnav be decanted from tiie lime sediment,
which has the properties of mucilage.

The True Story of Tlie First Telegram.
The bill met with neither sneers nor
opposition in the Senate, but the business
of that House went on with discouraging
slowness. At twilight on the last evening
of the session (March 3, lS-lll) there were
119 bills before it. As it seemed impossible
for it to be readied in reular coitrse before
tliu hour of adjournment should arrive,
tlie Professor, who had anxiously watched
the tardy movements of business all day
from the gsllory of the Senate chamber,
wei.t with a sad heart to his hotel and pro
pared to leave for New York at an early
lfoiir next morning. While at breakfast, a
servant informed him that a young lady
desired to see him in the pailor.
There he met Miss Annie Kllsworlh,
then a young school girl the daughter
of his intimate friend, Hon. Henry Tj. Klls
worlh, the lirst Commissioner of Patents
who said, us she extended her hand to
1 i i ii :
" I have come to congratulate you."
" Upon what ?" inquired tlie Professor,
" Upon tlie passage of your bill," she
replied.
"Impossible! Its fate was sealed atilitsk
last evening. You must be mistaken."
" Not at all," she responded. Father
sent nie to tell you that your bill was
passed. He remained until the session'
closed, and yours was the last bill but one
acted upon, and it was passed just live
minutes before the adjournment; and I
am so glad to be the lirst one to tell you.
Mother says, too, that you must come
homo with me to breakfast."
The invitation was readily accepted,
and the joy in the household was un
bounded, rioth Mr. and Mrs. F.lls
worth had fully believed in the project,
and the former, in his confidence in it and
in his warm friendship for Prof. Morse,
had spent all the closing hours of the ses
sion in the Senate chamber, doing wh t
he could to help the bill along, and giving
it all the influence of h's hiL'h personal
and official position.
u rasping tne nand oi his young friend,
the Professor thanked her again and
gain for bearing him such pleasant tid
ings, and assured her that she should
send over the wires the first message, as
her reward. The matter was talked over
in the family, and Sirs. Ellsworth sug
gested a message which Prof. Morse re
ferred to the daughter, for her approval;
and this was the one hich was subso
quently sent.
a little more than a year alter that
time, the line between Washington and
Baltimore was completed. Prof. Morse
was in the former citv. and Mr. Alfred
Vail, his assistant, iu the latter; the first
in the chamber of the Supreme Court,
the last in Mount Clare depot, when the
circuit being perfect, Prof. Morse sent
to Miss Ellsworth for her message, a.id
it came.
"What hath God wrought!"
It was sent in triplicate in the dot-and-
line language of the instrument to Balti
more, and was tlie first messaqe ever trans
mitted by a recording telegraph.
The story of this llrst message has been
often told with many exaggerations. It
has roamed about Europe with various
romantic material attached to it, origin
ating iu the French imagination, and has
started up anew from time t time in our
own country under fresh forms, but the
above story is simply ai.d literally true.
An inventor in despair receives the news
of his unexpected success from his friend's
daughter, and he makes her a promise
which he keeps, and thus links her name
with his own. and with an invention which
become!? one of thecontrolling Instruments
of civiIfAition for all time. Scnbuer1

Hypcr-Gcntllity.
Wr remember reading of three unfortu
nate ladies who wcrsentertalnadone sum
mer day at the house of a country friend,
and whoso consequent sufferings were so
remarkable that they will Berve to point
a little moral. These ladies were very
high-toned, so to speak. They were so
very genteel and so extremely proper In
their manners, that if society conferred
degrees they would have been Mistresses
of Social Arts and Doctressesof Social
So 'these three high-toned ladies sat
down to dinner in the house of their coun
try friend, nnd there were peas on the ta
ble. "Pas." wrote one of the Immacu
late trio, "such as we never see in town
fresh, green, plump and luscious, all so
ilnlloditfnllv hot. and tempting ! But as
the forks had only two prongs, maamg n,
quite useless to try to eat peas with them,
we were obliged to leave the delicious
things on our plates. The family ate
their peas with their knives, but of course
we could not do that."
Now our opinion may be social heresy,
hut. wn ecrtnl nl v believe that a true lady
would have eaten those peas with her
knife?. Him would have done so simply
because she wuld have known that the
laws of true politeness made it imperative
upon her to use her knife in such a case.
But this genteel trio did not appear to un
derstand that politeness requires a greater
attention to the feelings of others than
tn mere forms flint, what Is very genteel
iii one p'acc is often quite boorish in an
other, and that there is a hyper-gentility
and a plu-propriety which is offensive
tn tlii nostrils of a true gentleman or
ladv. Frank R. Stockton, in "Home and

Millions on the Strike! In spite of
the enormous amount of capital invested
in the promotion of Intemperance, tlie
Missionaries of Sobriety have no reason
to bo disheartened. The strike against
alcoholic drinks is not confined to the or
dinary linuors of commerce. It Is extend
ing to all medicines of which ardent spirits
form a component part. The belief that
stimulants of this nature are slow poisons
gains ground everywhere, imminent phy
siologists preach- the doctrine, and the
dissecting knife and the microscope afford
post mortem evidence of its truth, t r-
tuiiHtely at the very time when our dis
tinguished surgeons were making tlie ex
periments which lea to this conclusion.

Joseph Walker of California, was perfect

success of the new medicine is complete.
And we hear daily ot cases of dyspepsia,

constipation, general and local debility,
gout, kidney disease, etc, etc., that have

requires rejuvenation, just ns every portion
of nature's works niter a period of inertion.
There is turgiuity of the bowels, fullness ol
