Cold Water Poison Absorbing.
In connection with the subject nl
water, there is one peculiar property ol
that liquid with which every one should
be made acquainted, and that is, it.
capacity for absorbing impurities, which
increases proportionately the colder it
gets. Hence, water that has stood in
an insufficiently ven.ilaicd sleeping
chamber all right is not only unpleas
ant, but pofitivciy injurious to lnnl,
since 'it readily absorbs the poiso iou?
gases given off by respiration and the
action of the skin. An ordinary pitcher
of water, under such corxtitions, at a
temperature of sixty degrees will be
found to have absorb! during the night
from a pint to a pint and a half of car
bonic acid gas, and an increase of am
monia. Ice water is an objectionable
drink at all times, but if it is Hd'.ilge 1
in, the vessel containing it should never
be left uncovered in sleeping or sitting
rooms, because at freezing point its ca
pacity for absorbing these deleterious
substances is nearly doubled.
Her Lar.t Request.
John's wife was dying, and- she had
one request to make of him.
"What is it, dear?" he asked.
"Well, John, it is the last thing I shall
ever ask of you. I want you to promise
that you will ride to the grave in the
same carriage with mother."
Now, John and "mother" were rot
on very congenial terms, bvt after hes
iating for an instant, he made this re
ply. "I will do it dear, sinca you wish if.
but I can tell you one thinr;. it will just
spoil the whole day for ir.e."
Bronchitis
" I have kept Avar's Cherry Pec
toral in my house for a great man
years. It is the best medicine in
the world for coughs and colds."
J. C. Williams, Attica, N. Y.
All serious lung
g troubles begin with a
tickling in the tnroat.
You can stop this at first
in a single night with
Ayer's Cherry Pectoral.
Use it also for bronchitis,

A bareness u either place may be more

such ears should bp avoided. Tecause
ears longer than ten or ten and a half

The locat'on for a good hotbed ne-'ds

Planting Seeds by Cannon.
Nasmyth, a landscape painter nf re
pute, was held in great esteem as a land
scape gardener, and in this capacity
helped to compose some of the fmot
park and forest scenery. The estate ol
then duke of Athol was disfigured by
an unsightly crag, the rocks of which
were inacessihle to climbers. Hy a
happy thought Nastnyth determined t.
make a bold bid for success with a can
non, which was at hand. By his ad
vice tin canisters were prepared, and
loaded with tree seeds. I'ired front tin
cannon's mouth, these novel shells burst
against the face of the crag, and scat
tered their fruitful contents among the
rocky crevices. Nature carried on the
work so cleverly begu't, and in the
course of years these barren height;
were clothed and crowned with trees tit
luxuriant growth. Nasmyth's son
James, the Scottish astronomer, is saij
to Jiave repeated the experiment wi.b
equal success.
