How lo Keep Cool.
On the whole perhaps the best re
ceipt for getting along with the hot
weather was compounded by an
Oshkosh philosopher. We read of
him in a Western paper one day last
week. He was travelling with his
son, and the youngster, prostrated by
the sun beating down upon them as
they were riding across a shadeless
priarie, complained bitterly to his
father. The parent's heart was
touched, and out of the depth of his
love—love guided by level-headedness
he said to bis son ; "Now see here,
Jimmy, just take a good grip on
yourself and make up your mind that
you'll etan' it." There may be a better
hint of the kind. If any of our readers
labor under the impression that they
know of a better, wo should be glad to
have it left at this office.

How to Preserve a Boqiiet.
When you receive a boquet, sprin
kle it with fresh water; then put it
into a vessel containing soap suds,
which Dourish the roots aud keep the
flowers ar good as new. Take the
boquet out of the suds every morning
and put in fresh water; keep it there a
minute or two, and then take it cut
and sprinkle the flowers lightly by the
hand with pure water. Replace the
the boquet in soap suds, and the
flowers will bloom as fresh as when
gathered. The soap suds need to be
changed every third day. By ob
serving these rules, a boquet may be
kept bright and beautiful for at least
one month, and will last longer in a
very passable state: but the atten
tion to the fair but frail creatures as
directed above must be strictly ob
served or "the last rose of summer"
will not be "left blooming alone,"
but will perish.
Hay Fever.
Mr. A. L. Avery, Pharmacist, New
ark, N. J.—Having been afflicted for
eleven years with Hay Fever, after
trying almost everything without
avail, I gave up all hopes of being
cured,'when I purchased of you a box
of Ely's Cream Balm. To my surprise,
after a few applications, I was entirely
relieved. R. WATSON HARRIS, Letter
Carrier No. 14, New P. 0., Newark,
N. J.
I have been a Hay Fever sufferer
for three years, and have often heard
of Ely's Cream Balm spoken of in the
highest terms, but did not take muck
stock in it because of the many quack
medicines. A friend persuaded me to
try the Balm, and with the most won
derful success. This recommendation
you can use for the benefit of ilay
Fever sufferers. T. S. GEER, Syra

Cairo.
New York Evening Post.]
The city of Cairo, now seemingly
about to repeat its historic role as sup
planter of Alexandria in the interest of
the world, is a thousand years more
modern than that ancient seat of
commerce and learning, and lacks the
immense perspective, the striking
figures, and the vast proportions of its
history. But Cairo far exceeds
Alexandria in interest of scene and
situation, while its own twelve cen
turies of continuous historic life are of
an antiquity sufficiently impressive.
They reach to the Arab conquest of
the the country, when the victorious
.Arnrou, in the year 638, planted
where now is the suburb called Old
Cairo, bis city of Fostat, which for
330 years continued to be the capital
of Egypt. But beyond this known
and recorded period, a prehistoric life
stretches indefinitely, since Fostat
itself stood where once was the Roman
city or fortress of Babylon, the seat of
one the three Roman legions which
garrisoned Egypt. Relics of Roman
masonry yet remain in Old Cairo.

Cairo, N. Y.—Chtrles Hoffman, of
this place, says: "I have used for a year
or more Baxter's Mandrake Bitters
and find they have Ijeen very benefi
cial to me, in fact cured me of Dyspep
sia in its worst form." Isaac Hoffman
and Frauk Rennie have also been cur
ed of Sick Headache and Dyspepsia by
their use. We3tel Sulsbury says they
have been used by himself and family
to great advantage: have cured his

Ilunio, Sweet Home.
In the spring of 18(53 two great ar
mies were encamped on the Rappahan
ock river, one dressed in blue and the
other in gray. As 'twilight fell th;
bands on the Union side began to
play 'The Star Spangled Bauner,' and
'Rally Round the Flag;' and t'aat
challenge of music was taken up on
the other side and they responded with
'The Bonnie Blue Flag,' and 'Away
Down South in Dixie.' It was borne
in upon the soul of a single soldier in
one of those bands of music to begin a
sweeter and mere tender air, and slow
ly as he played it they joined in a sort of
chorus of all the instruments upon the
Union side, until finally a great
and mighty chorus swelled up and
down our army—"Home, Sweet
Home." When they had finished,
there was no challenge yonder, for
every band upon that further shore
had taken up that lovely air, so attun
ed to all that is holiest and dearest,
and one great chorus of the two
great hosts went up to God ; and
wheu they had liuished, from the boys
in gray came a challenge, ' Three
ehee.s for home!" and as they went
resounding through the skies from
both sides of the river, "something
upon the soldiers' cheeks washed off j
the stains of powder."— Fran :es Wtl

who advertised it but could not find
the owner. Recently the Mayor noti
fied Mr Thompson that the money
was unclaimed and awaited Lis order.
Mr. Thompson replied that the money
did not belong to him, and requested
the Mayor to deposit it with some
fund in such a manner that the owner
if found could reclaim it. The money
was turned over to the Garfield monu

turn savagely on her and say: 'Pernic
cous woman, I know all! Denials and
explanations are useless-! I break our
engagement!' That settles it. W>u
can be dead sure she has been flirting
with some fellow, and she'll think
you've discovered it, and either give
the real facts of the proceedings away,
trying to explain, or else say nothing
and let you go. It's a dead sure thing,

New Zealand's rabbit-skin trade has
attracted the attention of the United
States Consul at Aukland, and it cer
taiulv has points of interest. Ten
years ago there were only about 36,-
000 skins exported, and now there are
8,500,000, with a value of about half a
million dollars. Still more striking
is the fact that twenty years ago there
was uo rabbit on the island. A few
pairs of gray rabbits were taken
there by a gentlemen hard driven
for game to shoot, and so prolific
were they that in a few years their
decendants had eaten up a groat part
of the vegetation, destroying millions
of dollars worth of property, causing
sheep to die of starvation by thou
sands, and threatening ruin to agri
culture. The colonists employed
dogs to kill them, but they still
multiplied faster than they could be
destroyed; then they resorted to
ferrets, weasels, and poison, and this
latter was effectual, though scores of
sheep also fell victims to it. It is be
lieved that eighty millions rabbits a
year are killed in New Zealand by
professional rabbit hunters with
their appliances. Making the best of
'.he misfortune the skins of the pests
were turned into an article of com
merce as material for furs, and one of
the markets is the United States,
which fact has caused the Consul to
tell the story It reads, however,
rather more like a chapter of Jules
Verne than an ordinary consular re
port.

As "fly time" approaches every
housekeeper wonders where anil how
the increasing swarms of pests multi- |
plv so rapidly.
Tlie eggs, mere whitish specks to the
unaided eye, are laid in little aggluti- |
nated piles in worm manure or in de
composing vegetation, especially that
about our st tble aud barn yards
From 80 to 100 are laid at a time,
and probably at three or four different
intervals by the same fly, though on
this point we have no exact data.
Within twenty-four hours in summer,
they batch into footless maggots,
which, after rioting in tilth till their
tender skius seem ready to burst fom
repletion, become full-fed in less tiian
a week, and decending iuto the earth,
or sheltering under some old board,
eontract to brown, shining objects,
rounded at both ends, and technically
known as puparia. Within the dark
ness of this hardened skin profound
changes rapidly take place, and the
insect passes through the pupa to the
perfect state, and finally, in about tire
days, the anterior end. of the pupanum
is pushed off, aud the fly quickly
crawls out. At first its parts are pale
aud soft, and its wings are crumpled
and useless, but they soou expand,
and suddenly, without practice or
teaching, ti»« new fly wings its way to
your table to mock your displeasure—
to share your repast. The length of
time required from hatching to maturi
ty varies with the season aud tempera
ture, but will not exceed teu days in
midsummer, while the life of the per
fect fly lasts but three weeks at the
same season. As cold weather ap
proaches propagation ceases, and the
older flies perish. A few of the more
vigorous females, however, retreat to
some nook or cranny, where in a
state of torpor they survive until the
ensuing season—links 'cwixt the sum
mer gone by and to come. The insect
may also hibernate in the pupa state
in the ground. In rooms kept contin
uously warm, or in more southern lati
tudes, the fly remains active all winter
aud our palace sleeping cars bring them
daily to us from Florida during the
coldest months of the year.
The Men of llie Country.
According to a table compiled at the
Census Bureau, aud which we publish
ed the other day, there were 13,830,-
340 males of twenty-one years of age
and over in the United States in 1880.
That total was made up of 8,270,518
white native, 3,072,487 white foreign,
and 1.487,544 colored men. Among
the colored were included Chinese,
Japanese, and Indians, but of course
the vast majority were of African blood.
Something above a quarter of the
males of a voting age were therefore,
foreign born, aud about one-ninth were
colored. Foreign and colored together
made up nearly one-third of the total.
It must be borne in mind, however,
that a very considerable part of the
foreign born were not qualified to vote,
not having yet been naturalized. And
this proportion must have been large
in 1880, for during -that year nearly
half a million immigrants arrived in
the United States, a greater number
thau in any previous year, 1873 alone
excepted. But perhaps it would be
safe to say that about one-fifth of the
voting population of the Union were
of foreign birth, against something like
a tepth of African descent, and about
two-thirds of native whites.
About nine-tenths of the negroes
were in the Southern States, but of
the more than three million foreign
born men, less than three hundred and
fifty thousand were found there, and of
these all but about seventy thousand
were in the States of Missouri, Texas,
Maryland, Kentucky, and Louisiana
The foreign-born men actually ex
ceeded the native in the States of Min
nesota, Nevada, and Wisconsin, and
in the Territories of Utah and Dakota.
With the help of its Chinese popula
lation, almost wholly men, California
had 127,347 foreign to 135,209 native.
In New York the foreign were 53<»,-
598, against 852,094 native, while
Illinois had 277,899 foreign and 505,-
272 native, and Massachusetts 170,690
foreign and 325,002 native.
In 1880, when the total male popu
lation of twenty one and over was 13,-
830,349, the number of votes cast at
the Presidential election was 9,204,428.
In the first, total, however, includ
ed, Chinese, Indians, and unnaturaliz
ed foreigners not qualified to vote.
According to Dr. Edward Smith, in
his treaties on Food, the value of one
pound of eggs, ns food for sustaining
the active forces of the body, is to the
value of one pound of lean btefas 1584
to 900. An egg weighing If ounces
contains 120 grains of carbon and 12 j
grains of nitrogen, or 15.25 per cent,
of carbon and two per cent, of nitro
gen.
Mr. Thos. Meehan, editor of the Gar- 1
dener's Monthly, said, in a recent article
on the bark of trees, that some years
ago he ha*l several hundred orchard
trees that were stunted and covered
with the white scale insect. A gen
tleman in Mississippi informed him
that lie had destroyed them with lin
seed oil. He washed with linseed oil
and the scale insect disappeared, but
the trees were hide-bound. Then he
slit the bark and they grew, throve
beautifully, and are now a fine lot.
In contrast with the common prac
tice of letting dairy cows go dry four
months or so every year, a recent
writer says that he has a cow that has
completed her fourth farrow year, and
has averaged, during the past six
months, a traction over five pounds of
butter per week, of first rate quality.
He cites also the case of a cow in
Berkshire, England, which ten years
ago dropped twins, and has been giv
ing a good mess of milk daily ever
since.
The well-known bay horse belonging
to Cyrus Fuller, of Saugerties, furnish
ed, the otter day, an instructive but
melancholy example of how not to do
it. In performing some act for his
own personal advantage, presumably
removing a fly from his ear, the un
fortunate animal kicked one of his
hind feet into his mouth in such a
manner that his own unaided efforts,
though vigorous and prolonged, were
insufficient to extricate it. In this con
dition he was discovered struggling up
on the floor of his stall. The heel
corks of the shoe were found to be
caught behind his upper tefth and im
bedded in the roof of his mouth, from
which the blood was flowing freely.
There was ffar that the animal would
break his neck before he could be re
leased, but he finally escaped without
injury excepting a sore jaw and several
loose teeth.
