Gail Hamilton relates in Harper's Ba zaar tome of her exirienee with frauds in shopping aslollows: "A reformer saw some pieces of rcmarbably pretty cambric at seventeen cents a yard on the counter of a first-class dry-goods shop, and asked why they were so cheap. "Because they are last season's goods." "They arc not In ai,y way - dam aged ?" "Xot in the least; simply a little out of style." The great reformer wag placidly ig norant of style, and thought she knew several young girls who would be very glad of a lovely cambric dress even in last year's rut. So she bought a variety of patterns. Nor was she deceived, for every person was Jtlighted with them. But when the dress-maker had partially made one dress, she discovered that the cambric was in two pieces, and that one end, fuiued in, was riddled with holes, aud usehs through other flaws. The sad reformer heaved a sigh, but, true to her newly formed principles, threw the cambric over her arm and went to Athens. The clerk regretted the defect, but had no more cambric like it, aud of fered to repay seventeen cents for the yard that had been spoiled. By that yard the whole dress was spoiled, the dress-maker's time was lost, and the ex tra outlay of the journey incurred ; and even apart from the flaws, the fact that the dress was in two pieces, was an al most fatal eircuinstaii' e. Yet the clerk affirmed roundly aud repeatedly that there was not a firm in Athens that would not sell a piece of dress-goods in two pieces without saying anything about it. Yet every woman knows that such a thing might spoil a dress, aud is, in any event, likely to increase its ex pense and trouble. The great reformer did cot believe the clerk then, and does not believe him now. But he persisted in saying that it was both a proper and a common thing, and that the holes and Caws were a trille. What can you uV?" Kile-1 1 J Ins in Japan. Of all the sports at which the hoys in Japan amnse themselves, kite-flying seems to afford the most fun and en joyment. Japanese kites are not plain collin-bhaped bits of tissue paper, such as American boys tly. Tht.y are made of tough paper stretched on XgA flames of bamiion, and of all tdiapes, square, ohlocg, or oval. They aie also made to imitate animals. I have often in my walks ia Japan, seen a w hole paper mecasrerie in the air. There were crying babies, boys with arms spread out, horses, li.slu-s, bats, hawks, crows monkeys, snakes, dragons, besides ships, carts, and houses. Across and behind the top of the kite, a thin strip of whalebone is stretched, w hicli hums, buzzcs.or sings hiph in the air like a hurdy-gurdy or a swarm of bettles. When the boys of a whole city are out in kite time, there is more music in the air than is delightful. The leal hawks and crows, and other birds, give these buzzinff counterfeits of themselves a wide berth. In my walks I often was deceived when looking up, unable to tell at hrst whether the moving black spot in the air were paper, or a real, liv ing creature, witli lak, claws, and feathers. The Japanese boys understand well how to se nd "mcsseiiKeis"' to the top of the kite-, and how to entangle each other's kites. AYIicd thev wish to, they can cut their rival's sti ing and send the proud prize Muttering to the ground, To do this thev take about ten feet of the string cear the end, dip it in glue and then into bits of powdered glass, making a multitude of tiny blades as sharp as a razor, aud looking when majrnitied, like tlie top of a wall in which broken bottles have been set to keep oil' clmiU is. AVben two parties of boys apree to have a paper war cear the clouds, they raise their kites and then attempt to cros-s the sti ings. The most skilful lx.y saws oil', with his glass 6aw, the cord of his antagonist. The usual t-izn of a kite in Japan is two feet square, but oltea four feet; aud I have seen many that were six feet WgXx. Of course, such a kite needs very heavy cord, which is carried in a basket or on a big stick. They require a man, or a veiy strong boy, to raise them; and woe betide the fiiiall urchin who attempts to hold one in a still" breeze!'' 'i'he humming monster in the air will drajr him eft' his feet, pull him over the street, or into the ditch, be fore he knows it. Tie such a kite to a dog's tail, and no Japanese canine could even turu round to bite the string. If the Government allowed it. bojs and young men would make kites as large as an elephant. S7. Siriwhui for March 3enejel Men. The Cleveland Herald said, twenty years ago, during a stringency of the times, that moneyed men are the veriest cravens on earth: so timid that on the least alarm they pull their heads, turtle like, within their shell, and, snugly housed, hug their glittering treasures until all fear is removed. The conse quence is that a few day's disturbance of the monetary atmosphere brings on a perfect dearth of not only the pre cious metals, but even of paper money, their representative. Moneyed men never adopt the tactics of mutual sup port; hence, as soon as a shot is fired Into the flock, they scatter, each look ing out for himself, each distrustful of the other, and each recognizing only the great law of seltishuess, which is to take care of number one. Courage has aaved many an army, even when amu nition was low; and many a foe has been scattered by one yell of defiance when there was not a cartridge left. Europe wants for 1877 at least 5, 772,500 balcgof cotton, and, upon the basis of 4,350,000 bales for America and liberal estimateselsewhere, it is calcu lated there will be a deficiency of 515, 000 bales. AealCTLITaUe. Horse Feed. Every good groom knows that sound oats and beans la due proportion, and at least a year old, are the very best food for a galloping borse the only food on which it Is possible to get the very best condition out of a race-horse or a hunter. It also has re cently become known that horses do slow work and get fat, indeed too fat, on maize and Indian corn, which is fre quently one-third cheaper than the best oats. In the East, horses are fed on barley, and it ia a popular idea with Euglish officers wno have lived in Per sia and Syria that the change of food from barley to oats often, when im ported, produces blindness in Arab horses. Now, although no men under stand better or so well how to get blood horses into galloping condition as Eng lish grooms, they do not, and few of their masters do, know the reason why oats and beans are the best food for put ting muscular flesh on a horse. The agricultural chemist steps in here, makes the matter very plain, and shows that if yon want pace, Indian corn, al though nominally cheaper, is not cheap at all. When we feed a bullock, a sheep, or a pig, for sale, after it has passed a store stage, we want to make it fat as quickly and as cheaply as pos sible; but with a borse for work the ob ject is to give him muscle iu common language, hard flesh. There are times when it is profitable to make a borse fat, as, for instance, when be is going up for sale. For this purpose an addi tion of about a pound and a half of oil cake to his ordinary food has a good ef fect. It is especially useful when a horse that has been closely clipped or singed is in low condition. It helps on a change to the new coat by making him faU A horse in low condition changes his coat very slowly. ' When from any cause there is diffi culty in getting a supply of the best oats, an excellent mixture may be made of crushed maize and beans. In the pro portion of two-thirds of mr.ize and one of leans, which exactly altera the propor lions of flesh-forming ami fat-forming food. Bran is a very valuable food In a stable for reducing the inflammatory effects of oats and beans. Made into mashes It has a cooling and laxative ef fect, but used in excess, especially in a dry state, it is apt to form stony secre tions in the bowels or the borse. atones produced from the excessive use of bran have been taken outot horses alter ileain weighing many pounds. London Lite stock Journal. rxaXTi.so Coax xx Ikills. Among the experiments of the Kansas Agricul tural College last year was one having lor its object to ascertain the relative values ot the two methods oi planting com in hills and in drills. Four plats were laid off across a portion of the field very uniform as to the character of its soil. Each plat contained four rows of corn, the rows being three and a half feet apart. In the first plat the corn was planted in drills, in the second in hills, after the common fashion; again, the third was planted in drills and the fourth in hills. When the corn was about six inches high the drilled plants were thinned out leaving the stalks as uearly as possible ten inches apart in the rows; the plats in bills were like wise thin led out, leaving the same number of stalks in every plat through out the experiment. In cultivating the plats care was taken to give each the sanie treatment, and beyond thinning, hoeing once ar.J cultivating twice, no special treatment was given the plats. The corn w as busked November 11, and the weighings showed for the drilled plats a yield of seventy-one bushels per a- re: for the plats in hills sixty-two aud a half bushels per acre an advantage in favor or the method of planting in drills of eight and a half bushels per acre. By the "bushel" ef corn men tioned in these experiments it is to be understood in every case seventy-two pounds of ears. Pisbtddixo Frcit Trees. The sea son for disbudding fruit trees is fast ap proaching, the importance of the operation is generally acknowledged. and upon its proper performance de pends the production ot clean, healthy wood aud the best of fruit. Take, for instance, a single branch of the peach tree, w hen it first starts in the spring; if in a healthy, fruit-bearing condition. it will throw out many shoots and a great number of blossoms, and if the whole of these were left, it is probable two or three of the leading shoots would draw all the nourishment to themselves and become rank and over-luxuriant, whilst the remainder would be weak aud worthless. In like manner the fi uit would be small, ill-flavored and .. great portion abortive. Hence the pru ning called disbudding by which we mean the removing of every shoot that is not required, and the stopping of new shoots that apparently are not wanted to give form and health to the tree, by rubbing out buds which, if left, would grow. The same should be done with the fruit blossoms ; so many of them should be rubbed away as to leave the remaining ones to gather full blood and form good fruit. Ail varieties of fruit trees require annually this system of pruning, and the time to do it is when they are in full bloom. Most of our plants are injured by too much heat. For a general collection of house plants it is not best to allow the .thermometer to be above seventy, aud if they could be kept in a room where the thermometer would usually not range above sixty-five it would be much better. In the night time fifty is high enough. Give a little fresh air every fine day and all the sunlight attainable. An effort should be made to give mois ture to the atmosphere, for our own good, as well as for the health of the plants. This can be done in various ways by evaporating water, but when plants are iu a separate apartment, like a little green-house, it can be done more con veniently and effectually, although this separate apartment be only a bay win dow, with glass doors, separating it from the living room. In this, water can be used freely, by sprinkling, etc., and a moist atmosphere preserved. The tem perature, with this arrangement, can be lower than wouid be comfortable in the living-room, and the plants are saved from dust and many evils which we manage to endure and live, but which generally prove too much for the plants.

Let not our farmer friends for get that the winter'is passing rapidly by, and the summer, with iu depleted woodpile, will soon be here. I bis is the season to lay in a stock of fuel for the rest of the year. Seasoned wood is much cheaper than green wood; and unless our friends are of an extravagant turn they will heed our warning while still the chance remains. Kotatiox of Ckoiu. riant, like animals, differ much in their habits, and the diuerent sorts of food on which they subsist. The broad-leaved clovers. turnips, and mangolds abstract from the air a large portion of their growth, while the narrow-leaved grains and grasses partake more largely of mineral food, which they draw from the soil. This fact will explain the great advan tage ot rotation In crops. . scrcTrtnc. Evolution and the Vegetable Kingdom. The whole evidence supplied by fos sil plan to is opposed to the by pot hesis ef genetic evolution, and especially the sudden and simultaneous appearance of tbe most hinlily organized plants at particular stages in the past history of the globe, and the entire absence among fossil plants of any forms inter mediate between existing classes or families. Tbe facts of pabuontologi cal botany are opposed to evolution, but they testify to development to progression from lower to higher types. The Cellular Alga preceded the Vascu lar Cryptogams and the Gymnosperms of the newer Palaeozoic rocks, and these were speedily followed by Monocotyle dons, and at a much later period by Dicotyledons. But tbe earliest repres entatives of these various sections of the vegetable kingdom were not gen eralized forms, but as highly or more highly organized than recent forms; and the divisions were, when we be came first acquainted with them, as clearly bounded in their essential char acters and as decidedly separated from each other, as they are at the present day. Development is not the property of evolutionist. Indeed, the Mosaic narrative, which traces all nature to a supernatural Creator, represents the operations of the Creator as having been carried out in a series tit develop ments from the calling of matter into existence through the various stages of its preparation for life; aud on througn the various steps in the organic world, until man himself is reached. The real question is, does science give us any light as to how this development was accomplished: is it possiuie, irotn the record of organic life preserved in the sedimentary deposits, to discover the method or agent through the action of which the new forms -appeared on the globeT The only answer that can be given to this question is, that while the rocks record, in their coutained fos sils, the existence of plant aud animal forms at different periods of the earth's history, as yet they have disclosed nothinir whatevel as to hoie these forms originated. Contemporary lUvicw. . Why Tides Occur Later Each Day. As the moon revolves around the earth from west to east, she advances eastwardly in her orbit about thirteen degrees every twenty-lour hours. Hence, when any part of the earth, in its revolution, comes under a part of the heavens where the moon was the evening before, the nioou is not there, but has gone eastward thirteen degrees, and therefore the earth must turn on its axis as much longer as is necessary to bring that part again under the moon, which requires generally not always about fifty uiinuU's. The same thing occurs the next evening, and the evening after, and thus the moon rises most of the year about titty minutes later each day. Now, as the tides are produced mainly by the moon it will at once be seen from this east ward movement, and this later rising each day, why they must occur about fifty minutes later each succeeding day. While the lunar tide is thus daily lagg ing, the solar tide occurs at the same time. Hence those two tides always begin to separate after new moon, being further apart each day, until they again coincide at full moon, when there is, as already stated, a higher tide than usual called the spring tide. Then again they separate, until new moon occurs, when they once more unite, producing an other spring tide It must not be supposed that the whole body of the ocean, to its pro foundest depths, is eqnally moved by tbe tides. The tides are mainly super- 1 ticial, and, except where the water is of moderate depth, the lowest parts are only slightly disturbed; but to what depth the tidal current extends can never perhaps be satisfactorily deter mined. The Gulf Stream is about three thousand teet deep, having for its bottom a bed of colder water of va rious depths; but as t lie stream is the result of other causes than those that produce the tides, it is not safe to esti mate the depth of the tidal curreuts by its own. Do not Allow the Frog to be Pared. The frog of the foot ot every horse is the natural support of the foot, and 6houId never lie cat away except to re move the rough edges w hicti occasion ally appear from common wear. At a late meeting of the farriers aud horse- shoers in Wilmington, Del., there was a great deal said in condemnation of the manner in which horses are shod. especially in the rual districts. A lect urer, a veterinary surgeon (according to the Xew York llerald) said that "the frog of the foot was often paied away so artistically to make a heat job that the tendon or muscle that extended down the leg, over what is known as the pulley bone, and cave the f Kit its motion, was often injured, and then the horse would be weak in the legs, and blunder. He severely characterized the habit of burning the hoof with a red hot shoe to make it tit. and said there ought to be a law Dassed to hanit any blacksmith who would us; red hot shoes in this way. The shoe should be fitted to the shape of the foot, rather than the foot fitted to the shoe. The Sew Beraen Tunnel. It has been decided by the Delaware. Lackawanna and Western Railroad Company that tne new tunnel under liergen Hill shall be arched with brick thoiighout the en tire length, 5,300 feet. Of this distance the arching has been completed, except 600 feet, it will give an idea of the work when it is stated that 7,000,000 brick have been laid in the arching. All the shafts have been torn down and will be rebuilt in such a manner that the ventilation will surpass that of any tunnel in the country. The cost of the additional arching will, in the opinion of Mr. Sloan, President of the Dela ware, Lackawanna, and Western Kail road, be wore than compensated by the security against accidents from fulling rock. A Useful Vegetable Oil The French Consul at Canton has drawn attention to a tree, the oil of which he thinks might be used as a' preventative against the ravages of the phylloxera. the tree ?s '.lie ,l&ococca reranieia. and the oil it yields is universally used in China for protecting the wood of bouses, ships, furnituie, etc., from the pernicious effects of moisture and the ravages of insects. It renders anv tex ture impenetrable, is a powerful sic cative, and enters largely into the com position ot the Japanese varnish. A Safeguard Against Rats. "Rats are accomplished rope-walkers, and are able to make their way even along very small cords. Consequently so long as they can mount upon the lines, nothing edible suspended therefrom is sate from their attacks. A correspondent of the Boston Journal of Chemistry uses wires, upon which circular pieces of tin 1 are strong, aud hangs his meat, grain, j etc., between the tin pieces. The rats cannot pass the tin circles, because, as they attempt to climb over them after walking out on the wire, the pieces re solve. A Sew Use for Oun Cotton. A wad of old gun cotton, the staler the better, is reported by M. Jacnnemin to be an excellent test object for adulteration of wine by f uchsin or orchil. If it be heated with the suspected wine for a short time, it becomes dyed if any for eign coloring matter be present. On moistening the wad with ammonia, if orchil be present, it turns violet; while the fuchsin dye, which cannot be washed out in water, slowly bleaches Many years ago it was asserted that camphor possessed the power of accel erating the germination of seeds, and a similar property was subsequently claimed for chlorine, bromine and iodine. Hseckel has by experiments found the statements correct. 'An electric battery, famous because it was ouce owned and operated by Benjamin Franklin and other distin guished philosophers, has been in nse at Dartmouth College for years, and is now employed almost daily for class room experiments. Strawberries for $1 a plate are a Xew York luxury just now. They come from Charleston. t Tallow Candles. According to my practical observations, it is both safe and econontical to use candles for ordi nary purposes in the house. I would not like to depend entirely upon them for lighting either the parlor or dining room ; but for going from one apart ment to another, or into the cellar, I thiuk they are far more convenient and safe than kerosene lamps. The annual breakage of lamp chimneys will cost more than the expense of candles, and every person will allow that lamps are dangerous for children to handle; too many sad casualties have occurred to illustrate that fact, to need any argu ments to prove It- lhe old-fashioned tallow dips have gone by, and given place to the moulds, that make uniform smooth candles with but little trouble. I admit that there is a liability to drop the tallow, but that U nothing which cannot be remedied easily, and neilher scars or disfigures any one. To make candles nice, 1 would prefer a set of moulds that requires a pound of tallow for eight candles (Xo. 8-s, they are called), iwist the wicks liiihuy Some soak the w icking in a solution of two ounces of alum and two ounces of salt, dissolved in two quarts of soft water, tor a iiound of cotton wicking. The wicking has to be measured off the proper length and cut, before soaking; then dry erfectly. It gives a steadier, clearer light. Have the tallow luke warm when it is turned into the moulds. These candles give a good light sufli cient for all domestic purposes and if one is accidentally Uropiied, or knocked over, there is no worse result than a grease spot, that a little soap aud water wiil easily remove. When I used to dip my candles, I al ways prepared my wicks iu the manner mentioned, and the rule was to have nine wicks on a rod, and two inches space between the wicks; have the tallow just hot enough to allow the finger to be held in a moment without burning; then dip the wicks with a steady Iiaud, putting them in quick, and lifting them up slowly, sj as to keep them ot equal size all the way. Jt was hard work to dip up a year's stock in a day ; but candles last longer the older they are. Since I have commenced running them in moulds, I make up the year s supply in March. 1 can gen erally run lour sets in a day, and one does not seem to feel it. I should feel lost withoi'.t my tallow candles, al though I fully appreciate the cheerful light of the lamp tor reading or sewing, and making a room pleasant; but lor safety aud convenience, the caudle has the preference by all odds. CoroHiNO ix Chi-hcii. The attend ants of churches where coughing is lia ble to be followed by critical remarks from the minister should know that coughing is not such a uece-sity as many imagine, it partakes of the nature of a habit.

A t rench surgeon used to say whenever he entered lhe wards of the hospital, "The first patieut who coughs will be deprived of food to-day And very few then coughed. Dr. Urown-bequard says that coughing may be prevented by pressing on the nerves of the lips in the neighborhood of the nose, by pressing iu tbe neighborhood of the ear, and by pressing very hard on the top ot the mouth. A Simple Remedy fob Cinders ix the Eye. Persons travelling by rail way, are subject to continued annoy ance from the flying cinders. On get ting into the eyes they are not only painful for the moment, but are otten the cause of long sutlering, that ends in a total loss ot tight. A very simple and effective cure is within the reach of every one, and would preveut much sutlering and expense, were it more generally known, it is simply one or two grains of flaxseed. These may be placed iu tneeye without injury or pain to that delicate organ, and shortly they begin to swell and dissolve a glutinous substance that covers the ball of the eye, enveloping auy foreign substance tiiat may be iu it. The irrilatiou or cutting of the membrane is thus pre vented, and the annoyance may soon be washed out. A dozeii of these grains stowed away in the vest pocket may prove, in au emergency, worth their number in gold. Otster Socp for IxvAUps.

A quick and ready wit Is an almost indispensable endowment in a good cross-examining counsel, but the quick est and readiest sometimes finds his match. "Oh, you can say this gentle man was about fifty-five," said Canning to a young woman in the witness-box, "and I suppose now you consider your self to be a pretty good judge of peo ple's ages, eh f Well, now, how old should you take me to be?" "Judging by your appearance, sir," replied tbe witness. "I should take you to be about sixty. By your qnestlons, I shonld sup pose you were about sixteen." Whether counsel bad any more questions for this lady is not recorded. "Xow," began anoiher learned gentleman rising slowly from among his professional brethren, and looking very profound, "Xow, are you prepared to swear that this mare was three years old ?' "Swear?" returned the stableman in the box, "yes, I'll swear she was." "And pray, sir, upon what authority are you prepared to swear it?." "What authority?" echoed the witness. "Yes, sir, upon what authority." "On very good authority." "Then why this evasion? Why not state it at once?" "Well, If you must have it " "Must have It!" Interrupted the man of law, "I will have it." "Well, then, if you must and will have it," said the hostler, with deliberate gravity, "I had ic from the mare's own mouth." ' "Hear I Hear!" This phrase was originally "Hear him," and was used to remind listeners of the duty of pay ing attention to the speaker, but it has gradually become a cry expressive of approval, or, when used ironically, of the reverse. Sheridan, the famous wit, orator and dramatist, was a member of the House of Commons. Once, when making a speech there, ho was annoyed by a member behind bim frequently calling out "Hear, hear," without any regard to the propriety of the occasion, bheridan laid a trap lor him, and began to describe a political opponent in very uncomplimentary language, ending his vituperation with the question: "Where shall we find a more knavish fool or a more foolish knave than this?" At which the iulerrupter called out lustily, "Hear ! hear !" bfieridan turned round and thanked him for the infor mation, sitting down amid the laughter of the house. The other day, when a milk boy called on one of his customers, the good dame, believing his commoJit to be, like human nature, of a mixed char acter, asked bim, "How much water does your mistress thiuk proper to put in our two quarts of uiili,?" "I'm sure," replied the rogue, "I dou't know; neither does she, for site ' splashes it in."

JonN.siE, on being remonstrated with for coasting on the sidewalk aud mak ing it dangerous to jiedestrians, said: "'l is no worse for "folks" than for the boys; they have to walk up with their sleds, don't they ?" 'Have rou s lift oti rh.-it monrh of yours?' said an ill natured man to a frier.d, whose mouth was very large. 'Xo,' was the good natured reply. I only have it from year to year.' A False IUport.

"If yoc don't stop your coughing, sir," said a testy and irritable judge, I'll find vou 100." "111 give your lordship 200 if you cau stop it lor me," was the ready reply. - r Poo a soldier with his face half shot away, was asked by a comrade if he wanted anything.

Because she sends off the sparks, transports the mails, has a train followed her and passes over the plains. Why are coals the most contradictory articles known to commerce ? Because, hen purchased Instead of going to the buyer, they go to the cellar. Times are so hard that an Irishman says he has parted with all his elegant wardrobe except the armholcs of au old waistcoat. The most agreeable way to take cod- liver oil is to fatten pigeous with it aud then eat the pigeons. A Max's dearest object should be his wife, but, alas! sometimes it is his wife's wardrobe. Insanity among men is often incon- querable, but all herring taken in-selne can be cured. If there are any more "cold waves" coming, let 'em wave in some other direction.

'l Point for Tnaeherm- - Any one whehas bad the opportunity of seeiug the manuscript which has been offered to a periodical or a publish ing house of any ktn will remember that a large nutaber of these manu scripts were chiefly "decliued" because of their sentimentality. The curious thing about it is, that tbs sentimentality is not confined to f'.e writings of sick persons and young children, but it Is found in the sketches, stories or essays of adults iu good bodily health, of peo ple who. are not without practice In "composition," of persons whose duty it is to teach Others, and especially the young, how to write. We should be pleased to base these uuli-bry observa tions upon a collection of papers con tributed by the Professors of Rhetoric, of English Literatur-, and the like, in our seminaries and colleges. Such a collection, if we mistake not, would have a vast deal of sentimentality sugared through it. It would have a a great deal of that kind of gush, more or less stately and grainsitical, which it is of some consequerv.o that young peo ple should be ! ::! to avoid, both in their private and their printed commu nications. After reading what Charles Francis Adams so forcibly said in his Amherst address, on what should be taught in the higher institutions of learning, we wish that someone should make an equally Impressive harangue on this pnv oint of teaching teach era not to teach sentimsntal writing. Conditions of Insanity. M. Meyer, of Hamburg, asserts that all mental diseases fall into two great classes. In one of these, the mental action exhibits a state of the intellect below the normal intelligence and here there is evident weakness or confusion of mind; this diseased condition is idio pathic comes from the brain and if, in case of any patient of class, there appears a state of e.titeinent, this ex citement indicates at once fever. In patients of the second class, Dr. Meyer says the mental strength is not below the normal standard, but the intellect ual activity is wrong in direction; the insanity in a case of this class is sym pathetic or reflected, that is, it does not arise from a diseased brain, but the cause is to be sought in some other organ and part of the body the organs of generation, the digestive organs, -See.
