A ltsyiolo?fical Question. The Schenectady S'w is puzzling itsi'lf over the conundrum why girls can dress as thin as they d: and still kti' warm, and rotates the following startling oxp vieucc : "We once rode wjt.i a girl in an open cutter, fifteen miles (in one of the coldest nights of winter, and while we sat froze nijjh as stiff as a stake, our tooth chattering like rasthwts. she keut ui an animated

conversation, every now and then exclaiming: "Oh, isn't this delightful ! Don't you enjoy it ?" When ve arrived at our destination, notwithstanding we were dressed a good deal warmer than our fair companion, she had to lift is out of the cotter and conduct us to the tropical atmosphere of the kitchen of a firm house. On the return trip we - were frozen to death, and she drove the corpse home. It must te that girls are tougher than we mcu people." A one-legged rope-walker, who had been performing on the tightrope in this place for several days, fell from the rope on Wednesday last, breaking both wrists, a id otherwise injuring himself internally. In his descent, one of his eyes was supposed to have been a used by strikkg on a tabic he had suspended under the rope, at which he had been sitting but a few. minutes before. His eye "was readjusted, but it is doubtful if ever be has the use of it again, should he recover. Pears are entertained that lis injuries will prove fatal. Besult of Tshisky Tineennes Times.

Cut this Out ana Keep It. Franklin Dyre. a highly respectable and intelligent farmer, of Galena, Ken" county, Maryland, .fives the following as a sure cure for the bite of a mad dog. Ax will be seen r he has tested it, with the nost gratifying results: "Elecampane is a plant well known to most persons, and is to be bund in-jnany of our gardens. Immediately after boing bitten, take cue and a half ounces of the root of tiie plant the green, root is perhaps ; referable, but the dried will answer, and may be found in our drug s;orcs, and was used by in e slice or bruise, pi t into a pint of fresh milk, boil down to half a pint, strain, and, when cold, drink it, fasting at least six hours afterward. The next n or i) i n g re pea f the d 0 : e, fast i ng ; 11 sing two ounces of the root. On the third morning take another d we, prepared as the last, and this will be sufficient. Ji; is recommended that after eich dose nothing be e; ten for at least six hours. .I.have a son who w&s bitten by a mad dog eighteen years ago, and fcur other children iujthe neighborhood were also bitten; they took ti e. above dose, and are alive and will to this day. And I have k lown a number of otheis who were bitten and applied the same remedy. It is supposed that the rooUconi;ains a principle which, be ng taken up bv the blood in -circulation, counteracts or neutra'izes t ie deadly ef'eets of the virus of hydrophobia. I tool so much confidence in this simple remedy, that I am willing ycu should give my name in connection with this statement. t i -m Somebody, in describing a beautiful lady, says she hsis a face that "a painter might dwell upon."

Church Iiolrs. Reas nablo people, who aro not clogged with the ?.deas of a lialf century ngti, will agree with the following jiarjgraph, taken from a letter of Dr. J. G. Holland, (Timothy Titcoinb) written from England, after a visit to tli; churches of Spurgeou, Newman Hall, and Dr. Cummin .3 : 'Tne singing of all these three congngitions, I reget to say, was congregational. I have heard nothing but congregational singing since I Jeft home, and I am really getting hungry. The singing in Mr. Spuri eon's churoh dragged itself along i;i 3ii'?h a way a to set a musical nan frantic. That in St. James Hall, though supported by an organ, was hr.rdly better, while that cf Dr. Cum minus' church eas not isinging at all. 1 am tired of singing on a theory. It is undoubtedly a pretty thing for a whole congregation to unite in "singing, provided they know how; but I have never yet seep a congregation that did kuow how, and I never expect to see one. I hope to hear something better in Germany, where musical culture is more universal; but S3 far in all my life, congregational singing has! been a torment to ine, and never a source or medium cf devotion. Tie theory itself is 1 am'e. People who do not know how to sit:g have no rioral right to sing

in public. It is just as legitimate

to hire a choir to lead a congregation in public praise as to hire a minister lo lead in public prayer." There is one method bv which

congregational singing may be tolerated, and that is by having a good instrument and a strong choir to lead. This is th5 mode of conducting the singing' in Henry Ward Beecher's Church.

A Grave Affair. Armawufacturer of tombstones, latfll received a call from a countryman who wanted a stone to place over the grave of his mother. After looking around for some time, and making sundry remarks about the taste of his deceased mother,he finally pitched upon one .vhich the stonecutter had prepared for some other person. "I like this one," said he. "But," said the manufacturer, that belongs to another man, and has Mrs. Perry's ucine cut on it; it wouldn't do for your mother." "O yes, it would,." said the countryman, she couldn't read! And besides," he continued, as he observed the wonderment of the stone cutter, "Perry was always a favorite name of her'n, anyhow V Portland Press.

A gentleman formerly connected with the firm in Cincinnati who are successors to Roback in the manufacture of lloback medicines, told a gentleman in Lawrenceburgh this story Si, few days since. Said h 3 : "When the company was first formed the capital stock was put at $100,000. I put G,000 into it and went in as a partner. The first year we advertised largely, and made 60,000 clear money. The next year one of our largest partners would not agree to advemse said it was money thrown away that the medicines would sell on their reputation and merits. The advertising was discontinued. Our sales fell off.

We lost all that we had made, and more too, and my 86,000 is gone up. I left the concern." They are now

trying to resuscitate, by advertising.

It is the custom of teachers in the public schools to require (scholars, when coming in late, to bring at the next segaiou of the school, a written statement from the parent, giving the reason for the tardiness. At Lafayette, the Journal says, the other morninsr, a little urchin pre

sented to her teacher the following j note, which we print verbatim, 3ti

literatim, ct punctuatim : "Baby crb?s Biscuit to B ike Had no Bakein povwlera the dog up set the coffee -pe t the cat licked in the Milk and got up late Ex'cuse." Whereupon the teacher, deeply impressed with the validity of the excuse, but yet more deeply impressed with the importance of punctuality on the part of her pupils, took the first occasion to grind out; the following answer, which she transmitted promptly to the fond parent : If your bnby makes a riot, Paregoric soon will quiet. You must never biscuit hike, When 'twill make your children late. Keep your coffee pot where Rover Has no chance to turn it over. Had the milk been in its place, Tub -would' not have dared to taste. If afjnin occur. mishap, Hang your dog and kill your cat. Coni.j whet may, be this your rule, "Let no child be late at schwl."

How to Make Hard Times ! An exchange says the following recipe has gone the rounds of newspaperdom before, but it is especially applicable at this time, and we republish it for the benefit of all concerned : "A good way to make hard times' is to refuse 1:0 pay all little bids, although you have the money in your pocket ; push men to pay you who havea't the money, though you can get along without it ; if a man don't meet bis obligations just at the time they become due, report that he is about to 'bust ;' cut down the wages of your hands before it is necessary ; keep back all your products unr.il the prices get up to starvation rates ; use the money in speculation that you should pay your creditors with ; recollect that on necessary retrench

ments increase hard times instead of

bettering them : carry a long face,

and talk long and mournfully of

evil to come ; do these and other acts like them, and 'hard timos' will surely come, however littk: real cause there is for them."

Some wag records the following "decision" under the internal revenue law : - "The latest decision of the Commissioner of Internal Revenue covers the following points : Parties using paper collars nwist use them from the original pitckage ; that is, from the box in which they have been purchased : and a three cent

.revenue stamp muat be attached to each one when put on. When the collar becomes soiled and Is turned with the clean aide out, it must re

ceive another three-cent stamp, and m 1st also be conspicuously stamped with the word 'turned.' Boxes, when emptied, can not be used a second time, but must be destroyed in the room where emptied, and the Assessor furnished with a certificate; ot the fact. If thrown out of the window, or carried out in the coalscuttle or wash-tub, such boxes will be subject to export duty." Dr. Russel, of Grand Rapid3, Michigan, writes us as follows: "Having suffered from drinking Cochituate water through a lead pipe in my office at Boston, causing partial paralysis of the rectum, and diarrhoea for twelve months, I was

induced to use the following presm'iption, given me by Prof. George B. Wood, of Philadelphia, with the h ippiest results : Pulv. alum, gra. X. j pulv. nutmeg, gra. V.; this powder to be taken three times a day. Since my recovery, the prescription has been used in cases caused by ! ead poison, and others ot chronic dhrrhcea, with uniformly good results.

An effectual remedy for email -pox is said t o have been recently found by a surgeon of the Br itish a 'my, in China. The mode o:r" treatment is as follows i When tho. preceding fever is at its height, and just before the eruption appear;?, the :besi

is rubbed with croton o.i ana uur taric ointment. This caraes the whole of the eruption t appear o that part of the body, t the ;relief of the rcat. It also secures full and complete eruption, nd thusprevent! the disease from attaching
