The last sensation occurred lastThurs day (June 11) when about fifty men were present by Invitation to see Jim Lawson beat his own time of two years ago, when his wife had bread baked in eight and a quarter minutes after the wheat wbb standing lu the field. At 10 o'clock 4dm., 0s., the Buckeye reaper, drawn by Cy. Burnett's dun mules, stood at the corner of thegrowlng wheat, machine In gear ready for a start. J ten were stationed along the line of grain ready to seize an armful as it fell from the reaper, and rush with it to the thresher close by, which under the dl rectlon of veteran drivers was getting under way tor business. At the mill, JuBt sixteen rods away, Lawson stood at the window watching the moment when McCaw on the swiftest horse In the country, should start from the thresher with the grain, while Mrs. Lawton and her nelce, Miss Alice, had all the preparations made to make griddle cakes and biscuits in the shortest possible time. At the drop of the hat the dun mules sprang to the work, and In lm. 15s. the threshed wheat, about a peck, was in the sack and on the horse, and the race commenced for the mill. There were two bridges to cross, and the excited spectators could only see a column of dust, hear a couple of taps on the plank bridge as the horse flew over them at lightning speed, and the wheat was delivered to Lawton In the mill. In lm. and 17s. the flour was delivered to Mrs. Lawton, and in 3m. 55s. from the starting of the reaper the first grlddle-cake came from the hands of Miss Alice, and was gobbled by a dozen eager hands and that was the last of it. In 4m. 37s. from the starting of the reaper, according to the best double time stop-watch in the country, a pan of biscuits was delivered to the hungry crowd by Mrs. Lawson. Then other pans of delicious biscuits were baked more at leisure, and boiled ham and "one-minute biscuit" formeda sand wich it was right hard to beat. Night Air. An extraordinary fallacy is the dread of night air! What air can we breath at night, but night alrV The choice is between pure night air from without and the foul air from within. Most people prefer the latter. An unaccount able choice. What will they say, If it is proved to be true, that fully one-half of all the disease we suffer from is occa sioned by sleeping with our windows shut'i" An open window, most nights in the year, can never hurt anyone. This is not to say that light is not necessary for recovery. In great cities night air is often the best and purest air to be had in the twenty-four hours. We could better understand shutting the windows in town during the day, for the sake of the sick. The absence of smoke, the quiet, all tend to make night the best time for airing the patient. One of our highest medical authorities on consumption and climate has told us that the air in London is never so good as after 10 o'clock at night Always air your room then, from the outside air if possible. Windows are made to open, doors are made to shut, a truth which seems difficult of appre hension. Every room must be aired from without, every passage from within. But the fewer passages there are in a hospital the better. Warm Water For Bruises From times unknown bruises have been treated by cold water. Mothers In our early life used to apply It to any bruise or contusion, especially to bruises upon the forehead. Notwithstanding this illustrious example we prefer the application of very warm water. Let us see how the two operate : Cold appli ed to the surface has a tendency to check the flow of blood. Heat, under the same circumstances, augments it. Thus applying cold water to a bruise or contusion stops, .more or less, the blood in its course through the Injured part. The spot la "black and blue." Apply ing hot water compels the moving fluid to hasten its course and be far away from the scenes of turmoil. So the blood hastens on its way and leaves very few marks of its preseuce. Ordinary bruises and contusions rupture some capillary blood tubes, and allow the blood to ooze out. The thing to be done ia to compel the blood to flow on its wonted way. The application of very warm water is the best treatment for contusions and bruises. C3T In digging a tree, always turn the tide of the spade toward the stem of the tree, and lift out the earth care fully, and the small rootlets will then be loosened and preserved uninjured.
