A dangerous counterfeit of tho stand ard American silver dollar has made its appearance. They have the ring of t!.- genuine metal, the milling is perfect, and there is an absence of that creasy nuuKiitui-u iimvii is iounu oyrunninguie thumb over the general run of base coins. They are, however, too light, and a trifle thicker than the genuine. The days when nothing was sold in San Francisco for less than a dime, and even that minimum price was almost a badge of disgrace in the eyes of people who remembered the golden days of the half-dollar, have passed away forever. Culiforuians have passed their period of contempt for small coins and the chink of tho nickle is heard in the land. Th JhiUetin regards this fact as an indica tion of the healthy financial condition of the community. People purchase less of what they do not want and of necessary articles only what they need, and have ceased to fear the derision of those who still refuse to recognize any sum of money smaller than one " bit." A writer in a French paper ascribes the exceptional healthiness of butchers to their inhaling the nutritive principles of meat, and a French physician of emi nence deduces from this the desirability of vajior baths charged with vitalizing principles. Cooks, at this rate, ought to be amazingly full of vitality. The good health of butchers is probably due to their living entirely in the open nir, tbo same cause which gives so many more years of life, on the average, to the grocer's clerk than to his dry goods brother. Thirty years ago butchers in London never wore hats when at work, but drove all over the town barehead ed, as many young butchers do now. This inhaling idea is, like all others, old. A century ago consumptive pa tients were Bent to live over cow-houses. The ratio of ministers to members varies greatly in dill'erent denomina tions, as the following table will show: Churches.

The scene of the find ia the Grey Ranges, a wild elevated country in the extreme northwest of the colony, and on the borders of South Australia. Apart from the nature of the deposits, which are said to be rich, the discovery is interesting as a matter of science, as being a ' deviatioa from the rule which has hitherto prevailed that all of the mineral wealth, and especially the gold deposits, in Australia have been found within a 6hort distance from the coast. The nearest village to the uiey lvsnges is wucannia, on the Dar ling river, some 600 miles from Sidney, and 200 miles from the gold field. Water is scarce, and only to be met with at distances of fifty miles apart, so that intruding prospectors will have to enconnter more than the usual amount of difficulty. A Pageant in Siam. Tho rice crop this year is a bounti ful one, and the people are rejoie big over it. The second king came in from the country on Sabbath morning.

The noise of bells on the elephants, and the chanting of the riders, together with the music made by the king's band, made it necessary for us to delay the ringing of the second goug until after the procession had passed. I had not supposed it was to be so great an affair. A largo number of elephants had passed before I began to count, but I counted 110 as they passed along one by one. I was told there was 170 in all in the procession. One. of tho largest wore trappings of the brightest silver. The howdas contained rice. All these wero decorated with green branches. The procession was in lienor of the guardian spirits that pre Mtlo over the rice crop. Those that could see the procession in its whole length considered it the most imposing or.o tlj.'it has passed for years. Rev. J. I i i '.', (f b'iam. Victoria and IteucousflcIJ.

Sanitary errors: 1. To believe that tho more hours children are at their studies the faster they lenrri. 2. To believe t lint, the more a person cats the stronger and fatter he w ill become. X To believe that if exercise is good for one it should be taken at all hours and seasons, the more violent the better the result. 4. To imagine that the small est room in the house is large enough to sleep in. 5. To cat without appe tite. f. To eat a hearty supper the last thiug at night. A superior remedy for n sore throat is, on retiring to rest, to rub on the out side a little volatile liniment, and swal low slowly n few drops of paregoric, letting it dissolve in the saliva, and spread along down the inflamed parts. Tho liniment is generally stiflicient alone. Volatile liniment is simply a mixture of sweet oil and aqua ammonia (called liquid hartshorn). These are put into a vial and shaken, using such proportion as to form a semi-liquid soap. An ounce or two can be got cheaply at the druggist's, and if tightly corked it will keep for mouths. Hub it on with the fingers. This is also good for soreness of the chest or joints, or for lameness, stiff neck, etc. One of the simplest and best reme dies to bo given to children if they are troubled with worms is poplar bark. A well-known physician has used this for vears with marked sucotfss. It can bo bought at any drug store, and a little paper costing live cents will often pre vent sickness and possibly save a large doctor's bill. If a child looks white around the mouth, with flushed cheeks and bad breath, it is safe to infer that he is afflicted with worms. I take a little pinch of the bark, about as much as one would naturally take up on the point of a penknife, and give it before breakfast. It has a clean, bitter taste, and there is no difficulty in getting a child to take it if you explain what it is for. A good way to regulate a child's stomach and bowels is to give him a little bowl of oatmeal and milk every day for breakfast and dinner. See that it is well salted, as salt promotes diges tion. The ailments of a child who is in a normal condition almost always pro ceed from the stomach, and much may be done for our children by paying some attention to their diet and bo avoid giving medicine as much as possible. " My little boy eats everything just the same as the rest of us, coffee and tea and all," said a lady to me with an air of pride and satisfaction. Now my little boy did not eat everything and never tasked of coffee or tea, and at the ago of eix years he was a perfectly healthy child and full half a head taller than the sallow, dyspeptio little fellow who ate everything. iew York Post. Iligh-Priced Beans. Tom Watrous, commercial traveler, stopped off at the Marshall, Mich., eat ing house several years ago. Ho was not very hungry, and called for a plate of beans, which he received. He inquired the price, and was informed that it was seventy-five cents. That's a thundering price for beans," said Tom. " That's the price," said the proprie tor. The train was just starting; Tom paid the bill, and the coaches bore him and his indignation on toward Detroit. This was on Saturday. On Monday, Gilmore, the eating-house man, received a telegram, collect on delivery, $1.25, which he paid, and read on opening it : "A thundering price for beans." Thirty days from that date a neat express package was handed in to Gil more, C. O. D., who paid ninety cents for the privilege of opening it to dis cover a lot of sawdust, on the top of which lay a slip of paper with the caba listic symbols : "A thundering price for beans 1 " Two months from this Gilmore was summoned to Chicago to meet a former business partner, and tho hotel clerk handed him a letter conveying tho pleasant information : "A thundering price for beans ! " During Gilmore's absence his son paid for two telegrams and one express package, all bearing directly on the sub ject of seTenty-five cents being "a tnundenng price for beans I Cost of these articles, 3.80. A genuine tele gram lrom Gilmore's mining share broker, advising him to sell, was re fused, and the loss of it entailed an actual damage to Gilmore of $1,500. A year rolled away. Gilmore order ed a case of Mackinac trout from De troit. They came C. O. D., $13.83; when opened he found every fish had been removed from the ice and sawdust, and a shingle met his eyes marked with a blue lead pencil : " A thundering price for beans 1" Trouble arose be tween Gilmore and the Detroit fish house, and they went to law, Gilmore winning the suit, $25 damages, and all at a cost for the attorney's services ol $86.90. Gilmore grew dejected. Life looked gloomy. Letters poured in on every one of his family at regular intervals from all parts cf the world, bearing the unpleasant information that it was " a thundering price for beans." At last Gilmore Bold the Marshall eating-house and moved to Chicago. He carried his deep affliction along with him, gnawing like a cancer at his vitals. Ihe persecution never ceaed. Gilmore drooped, faded and finally died. The terribly afflicted family followed him to his last resting-place, and the widow. with what little money she had saved from tho expenses of bogus telegrams and express packages, erected a plain maroie siau to me memory of the tor tured Gilmore. The following Sabbath the mourning family went out to the cemetery to plant some violets on Gilmore's gravo. Ar riving on the ground they observed in silent horror that another legend ap peared above the name of Gilmore, on the tombstone. It was chalked on a Bmall blackboard and read: .

Battle Creek (Mich.) Daily Journal. Upon being spoken to concerning St. Jacobs Oil, our fellow townsman, Mr. Theodore Wakelee, said: I had been suffering with rheumatism, and obtain ed the greatest relief from the uso of St. Jacobs Oil. It has also been used in my family for some time, and has never been found to fail in giving prompt relief. Some time since a letter was received in New Orleans directed to tho Biggest Fool in New Orleans." The postmaster was absent, and on his return one of the youngest clerks in the office informed him of the letter. " And what became of it?" inquired the postmaster. "Why," replied the clerk, " I did not know who the biggest fool in New Orleans was, and so I opened the letter myself 1" "And what did you find in it?" inquired the postmaster. "Why," responded the clerk, "nothing but tho words, 'Thou art the man !' " South Bend Evening Register. When certain powers are claimed for an article, and everybody testifies that it does more than is claimed for it, to gainsay its worth is useless. This is the substance of the St. Jacobs Oil record.
