" Yon Xnow tho paper paid it
"whs r fashionable thing to do."
" I don't remember. Ternars I did.
What of it ?" asked the oitj editor,
" I tried it," said the Gravesond
man. "A friend of mine brought me one
from New Orleans, and I'm taminpf that
aJligator for tho children to play with."
" IIow does tho experiment come
alonpr," asked the city editor.
" I don't know abont the experiment;
the alligator is thrivin'. lie was aix
weeks' old when I got him two months
t go, and he is seven roars old now.
Teople in our parts Pay he's all tho al
ligator I'll ever need."
"What does he do?"
" Well, it's hero. When he came he
was a sportive little cuss and jnst wab
bled around friendly. He was chiefly
mouth, and we used to feed him for the
fan of peein' him eat. Now we skin
around when we see him comin' for the
fun of seein' him go hungry."
"Is he dangerous?" asked the city
editor.
' I haven't been close enough to Bee.
Ho eat up my dog, and when i loft this
mornin' he was in the sty arguin' tbe
question of pork as a diet with the pig.
My wife thinks if the pig has any luck
he will find the cow we lost."
"Better get rid of him, hadn't yon 7"
suggested the city editor.
I don't know," said the Gravesend
man. "We've stored to much away in him
now that it seems like givin' up most of
our property, and my eldest girl says
she can't hear of havin' her leg go out
among strangers."
Did he bite her leg off?" demanded
the horrified citj editor.
"Suro." responded the Gravesend
man. Took it off short ! Then here's
the baby. We hate to part with the
baby's grave, eo we try and keep tho
alligator along. My wife insists on
keepin him, 'cause ehe thinks she saw
a couple o' peddlers go in one day,
packs and all, and she's got an idea the
packs may come to the front, again if
we hold on. Besides, she seen that
item about tame alligators being fash
'nable, and Bhe's got a good deal on
Btyle."
'But do you call that alligator
tame?"
" Cert'nly. He comes right into the
house, same's any of us, and keeps
himself. He's got that heel," and the
Gravesend man pointed to a mutilated
foot. "There's my son's wife, too.
She's part alligator now. He eat her
up a week ago and the boy hasn't got
over his arm yet, The alligator . got
the arm, too."
" Groat scott I" ejaculated the city
editor.
"Oh, yes, it's lively down there.
When he puts himself up he's busi
ness. He s the ljghtninest alligator for
a tame one you ever eaw. When we
first got him we used him for a tack
hammer, drew nails with him; but now
he's the head of the family, except
payin' the rent. When there is any
mysterious disappearance around
Gravesend the coroner comes and views
the alligator. That ends it. When
the baby was snatched they held
the inquest in a tree. The jury was all
on one limb, and the alligator under
neath looking up. Bimeby the limb
brote, and the jury disappeared in a
row, just as they sat. - We didn't wait
for any verdiot. The coroner gave me
a permit, and after the funeral we shied
au empty coffin at the alligator. Then
the minister paid dust to dust, and wo
all dusted. Do you remember whether
that item said what a real tame, alligator
ought to be fed on ? '
"Don't recollect seeing it at all.
Aren't you afraid he'll eat up some of
your family?" '
"Think he's liable to?" asked the
Graveatnd man, with a curious expres

" He misfht get her, mighten he? You

editor heard him say us he drew awav

The ISnling Business.
The baker comes down to ti from an
tiqnity and has always fiired mora or
less prominently in saored and profane
history. Witness the conspicuous part
played by Tharoah s baker, and tho ap
pearance of the functionary in nursery
lore in connection with the bntoher and
tho candle stick maker. Tho baker and
his cavernous oven belong to many lands
and many ages, but it was roserved for
modern days to transform tho industr.
from an enlargement of the domestio
process into ono of the branches of
trade employing labor-saving ma
chinery. Let us first inspect the cracker de
partment The cracker is a "pecnlior
institution." The dough is first pre
pared in long troughs. It is then put
into a "worm," whore a device which
resembles a huge corkscrew turns and
twists it, gives it its final kneading and
forces it into a trough, from which it is
passed through rollers and appears in a
long sheet, ready to be cut into crackers.
This woTk is performed by a cutting
machine, which by sliding the sheot of
dough on a table under a die cuts out
720 crackers a minute. These are taken
from the table on a fiat wooden shovel
and deposited in the oven, and the clip
pings are thrown back into the dough
trough. Gazing in at the mouth of the
oven we see a spacious compartment
which we are told measures twenty feet
square and thirty feet deey. It is heated
by a furnace in the basement of the
building.
The oven contains eight shelves, nine
feet long and three feet wide, arranged
on a revolving frame and holding two
and a half barrels of crackers. Eight
minutes are required for the baking,
and as soon as one shelf is emptied it
is filled again from the cutting table.
The baked crackers are conveyed to
bins in the upper story by an arrange
ment somewhat similar to that by which
grain is elevated. The buckets empty
the crackers into a bin where they are
allowed to cool and fall into a recep
tacle beneath, from which they are
taken and packed. The packing ma
chine is a curiously contrived device,
and arranges the crackers in rows so as
to greatly facilitate the work of the
packer. About thirty-two barrels per
day is the product of the establishment
of which we speak.
Let us pass to that part of the bakery
where ginger snaps lire made. Long,
thin sheets of "snap" dough pass be
neath a cutting machine, similar to that
used for crackers, which punches out
twelve snaps at a stroke or 86-4 per min
ute I The cakes are then passed through
steam and water to give them a glossy
appearance, and are then placed in the
oven, which has tables revolving hori
zontally. One turn of the tables bakes
the thin snaps, and two turns docs the
business for the thicker ones. The time
taken to convert the dough into a baked
snap is only about five minutes, and
50,000 snaps per hour, or 500,000 per
day is the product.
After all, bread is the most import
ant product of the baker. Here we see
a revolving crank in on iron trough
mixing ten barrels of flour in eight
minutes. The bread is given four
"risings," and the weight of each loaf
is ascertained before it passes to the
oven; The number of loaves turned
out every day is 3,100. About 500
loaves of brown bread are baked, daily,
some cooked by heat and some by
steam, the latter process requiring six
hours.
Grant, as a Lover.
HeariD g that there was a lady living
in this city who had once been courted
by General U. S. Grant, and who had
refused her hand in early womanhood
to this noted American civil and mili
tary character, a Constitution reportei
sought an interview with tho lady, with
very satisfactory results. The news
paper representative found the early
sweetheart of Grant s to be a lady con
siderably advanced in years, yet still
large, active and buoyant, and not
nearly so reticent as the general
She had not seen General Grant since
the '50s, she said, and then his father
carried on a tannery m Portsmouth, O.
oho once had occasion to reside for a
time in the family of a farmer whose
farm joined that of Grant's father only
a line of fence between and it was
during her stay at this farmhouse that
she was courted by General Grant. It
must have been in the spring time, for
she says she and Grant would meet at
the division fenco, on each side of which
were beautiful flowers.
"Ulick," said 6he, "would say to me,
"Let's gather flowers and see who will
have tbe most kinds when we get
through.'"
"You mean Grant when ycu say
Ulick 7 interrupted the reporter:
"his name is Ulysses."
1 Yes, ehe replied, " we always
called him ' Ulick and while he was
courting me and wanted to marry me
my father used to laugh at him.and
plague me, saying: He is the greenest
looking boy 1 ever saw,' " and chuck
ling to herself she added: "and he
was a green-looking fellow. I re
member the last time I saw ' Ulick.'
We had been buggy riding. We had
alighted from the buggy and he stood
leaning with one arm on the wheel of the
vehicle and looking into my face he said,
Well, Ellen (my name is Eleanor, but
they called me Ellen), if I ever find
anybody that I love well enough to
marry and am so fortunate as to have a
daughter, you know what that daugh
ter's name will be." The daughter's
name is Nellie, a pretty contraction of
Eleanor.
" We shall not publish your name,"
said the representative, " since you have
been so kind and courteous to us, with
out permission. Can we use your name V"
Finally she remarked: "I am not
ashamed of my father's name; it was
Charles Brandon, and my maiden name
was Eleanor Brandon. My first bus

WonrtrM of Iho Brain.
Dr. n. W. Tlit. liell, of New York, i,i
a lecture on the "Brain and Its Won
ders," paid that tho cerebellum of the
brain presided over tho orpan of motion,
and that it could bo removed from am
nials without taking away thoir intelli
gence. The effect, however, would bo
that they could not move. The fame
symptoms, ho paid, could be observed
in man under tho influence of alcohol.
If the latter takes too much of the
stimulant his cerebellum and the little
cells of which it is composed refuse to
do their work and the man staggers.
He claimed that a person learning to
play on the piano and a lady threading
a needle were regulated by their cere
bellum, and without its assistance could
do neither. He said that, the medulla
oblongata was the most vital part of the
whole system, and if rnn thronh with
a knife life would be destroyed in an
instant. Advantage has been taken of
this in tho process of hanging people,
and the garrote had been introduced on
the same principal. He claimed that
the brain could not get along without
nerves and that it had twelve pairs of
them. The first three nerves were of
special sense olfactory, optic and au
ditory. The olfactory nerve was not
very well defined in man, as it was not
necessary, but it reached its highest
development in dogs, cats and rats. It
was more perceptible in the rat than in
any other animal, and the bloodhound
came next in order. After describing
the optic nerve the lecturer said that
the sense of hearing was less developed
in man than in the animal. He con
tended that if either of the throe nerves
mentioned were cut there would be no
sense of pain and that the only result
would be the destruction of the sense
of smell, sight or hearing Tho fifth
nerve, h said, confers sensibility on
the face, and when irritated gives rise
to intense pain. He insisted that the
pneumo-gastrio nerve was the great
vital nerve of the whole body, and said
that if it were divided our respiration
would cease at once. He then explained
the workings of tho spinal cord and its
connection with the brain, and con
cluded by reciting the effects of alcohol,
chloroform, opium and strychnine on
that organ of the body.
l iTect of Heat on the Nerves. ,
Dr. William A. Hammond, the dis
tinguished nomologist, in an article in
Our Continent with the taking title,
" How to Escape Nervousness," warns
against overheated apartments. He
says: An overheated apartment al
ways enervates its occupants. It is no
uncommon thing to find rooms heated
n winter b an underground furnace
up to ninety degrees. Fiahts and
murders are more numerous in hot
than in cold weather, and the arti
ficially heatod air that rushes into cur
rooms, deprived as it is of its natural
moisture by the baking it has under
gone, is even more productivo of
vicious passions. It is no surpiismg
circumstance, vherefore, to rind the
woman who swelters all day in such a
temperature, and odda to it at night by
superfluous bedclothing, crop.s and
disagreeable from little everv-day
troubles that would scarcely rnflJj hex
temper if phe kept her room at nix ty
degrees and opened tho windows ever y'
now and then.

A few months ro an Interview with arrorn
ftient and wall known phvsloian, formerly a
r'sulotit of Iitroits luiv now living in New
York, appeared in tho columns of this paper.
Ilia statement made by the doctor and the
foots he divulged wire of so unusual a nstnr
as to cause no little commotion among those
who rsad them, and many inquiries were raised
as to the eenniiieneaa of the interview and the
validity of tbe statements it contained. The
name of the physician w at that time sup

rrecy, nowover, cm now ue removea, is me
Important and interesting lottor which appear
below will abundantly show. In order, how
ever, that the reader may better understand
this lottor, a few extract a are herewith given
from the interview in question:
After an exchange of courtosiea and a few
reminiscences about the w ar, in which the doc
tor was a prominent surgeon, the reporter
remarked upon the doctor ' improved appear
ance., upon which he said: .
" Yes, I have improved in health since you
last saw me, and i bopo also in many other
ways. Ono thing, however, I have succeeded
in doinp, and it im one of the hardest things lor
anyone and especially a doctor, to do, and
that U 1 have overcome iny prejudices. Vou
know them are simie people who prefer to
remain in tho wrong ratUnr than acknowledge
tho manifest right. Such piejutlico If ads to
bigotry of the worst order. Now I am a phy
ivitfiau, and of the 'old arhool' ordar, too, but I
have, after yesra of exoriciu'e and obeerva
tion, oouie to tho conclusion that truth is the
lushest of all things, and that if prejudico or
bigotry stand in tho way of truth so much the
wure for them they are certain to be
crushed toonor or later. A by, when 1 know
j oil iu Detroit, 1 would no sooner have thought
of violating the code of ethics laid down by ilie
ptoteesi'iu, or of prescribing anything out of
ihe rKnar order, than 1 would ot (mputaiing
iny hand. Now, however, I pi escribe and ad
vise tltofo things which 1 believe to bo ailapt-
d to cure, and which my expwience bus
nroven to b such."
''llow did you oomo to got such heretical
idem as theu, doctor?"
"Oh, thty are tho result of my experience
and obtt'ivHtion. I obtained my liietidens

hick a I w as. however. I became restored to

incredibly thort space ot time, and it was this
that proved a revelation to me. That was the
ataitiug point, and my prejudice! faded rapidly
after that, I can astmro yoiu I wont

ternity to sit back and say thore is no such
thiug as improvement or advancement, or that
we have a monopoly of the remedies which na
ture has given to mankind. There are great
chances going on in every department of lira.

' l ell. doctor, you have cot some new
truths here, certainly, but the; sound very lea-
sonable to me."
Well, whether they aro reatonable or not, I
have demonstrated to my own satisfaction that
thev are true, and I propose to stand by them.
no matter how much opposition I may raise by
doing so. Any man, be he politician, preacher
or phvsician, who is so considerate of hia
pocketbook or of his own personal ends as to
stultify himself by suppressing the manifest
truth, is uuwortliv the name of man and un
worthy the confidence of the publyj whom he
servos."
The above are some of the principal points in
the interview referred to. Now for the sequel.
Tne following outspoken letter from the doctor
himself, which has juat been received, la pub

Editor Detroit Frre Pre :
Some tim ago a reporter of you r paper had
nn interview with me which he said he would
like to publish. I consented on condition that
vou would not raeuiou uir name until l eav
you permissiou. I havo now accomplished the
purpose 1 had in mina, and wish to say to yon
(which you can publish or not as- you sea lit)
that I had debated for a long time whether I
would shake off some of the professional fetter
which bound me with others lor years, and tell
the trnth, or not. When I looked back, aud
thought of the tortures, hue those described by
Dante in his trip to the infernal regions, which
I endured from dyspepsia, and recalled bow
much 1 would have given at that time for the
relief which I have since obtained, I determined
that I would take the step so long meditated
and thereby discharge a duty to my follow men.
If I could thereby save one poor mortal one
night of the tumble suffering I endured I
would be fully satisfied, be the other conse
quences what they might.
