SHORT-HAND WRITING.

Fe>ta PtrtmnM by Stenographers to Reports of Great Meetings. “Some years ago, when I was on one of the Cincinnati papers,* said Mr. John Ritchie, the stenographer, “I performed what I still regard as my most notable stenographic feat.* “What was that?” • “I was assigned one night to make a verbatim report of a lecture by the Rev. Henry Ward Beecher. The train in which the distinguished pulpit orator was to arrive chanced to be late that night. The lecture, which was to have 3*begun at 8 o’clock, did not start until about 10:45. I saw at once that I would have to move hastily to get the report ready before the paper went to press, as it would be late before the speaker had finished. How did I manage it? Well, I prepared a great number of small, narrow strips of paper and a lot of larger sheets, about the size of ordinary copy paper. It was 12:45 when Beecher spoke his last sentence. Then I got six men around me to transcribe while I dictated from my short-hand notes. I gave ten or fifteen words to each man at a time, which they wrote out on narrow strips, and another man with a paste-pot and brush arranged the copy in order on the larger sheets. At 1:45 o’clock the lecture was in the hands of the compositors, and it appeared complete in . the paper that morning. Yes, that was about the biggest thing I have done. “Do you remember the investigation of Judge Blodgett by a Congressional committee ? One day during the proceedings my stenographic notes made 256 pages of solid type-writing, or about nine columns of reading matter in one of the blanket sheets. A page of type-writing will average 300 words, solid, or about 250 words of testimony where the paragraphs are numerous. On that day I was through by 9p. m. I had one assistant part of the time, and never more than two. But I have often taken notes alone and single-handed sufficient to make 200 pages of typewriting, and would always be through early in the evening. Since the typewriter has been introduced we can make five copies about as easy as one by usihg carbon paper. Day after day I have produced 400 pages of long-hand copy, transcribed from my notes. One; page of Pong-hand will equal about a half-page of type-writing. We have type-writing operators who will turn out ten pages an hour. ■“Since 1868 I have always managed a corps<of reporters in the* Presidential convention. I regard one *of these national conventions as the most difficult kind of reporting that is doije—worse even than Congressional reporting. It is a iievfer-ending talk from the moment the convention opens until it adjbhrris, and at'fimes tn 6 excitement and confusion ig stupendous. In the Tilden convention atJSt, jiouis five of us kept along with the proceedings each day, and made five copies with the stylus We also did the Garfield and Hancock conventions. We recorded word, and they, were all written up and transcribed within five or ten mifitites after the adjournment each day. The stenographer of a great poli- • tical convention needs a large and varied fund-of knowledge pertaining to public affairs,— Chicago News.

What the Moon’s Face Tells.

’ The meon’S face, says prof. Procter, tells’ of a rem’ote youtli—a time of fiery L ' activity; "vVlieii volcanic action, even more effective (though not pfobably more energetic) than any which has ever taken place on this globe, upheaved the moon’s ’crust. But so soon as we carefully the features of the moon’s "surface we see that there must have beeh ’ three distinct eras of vulcanian activity. Look at the multitudinous craters, for example, around the metropolitan crater of Tycho. They tell us of century after century of volcanic disturbance—but they tell us more. They mark a surface which varies in texture, and, therefore, in light-reflecting power in such a way as to show that the yariations were produced long before the volcanic action began by which the craters were formed. For the variations of texture are such as to mark a series of streaks —some of them 2,000 or 3,000 miles in length, and many miles in breadth, extending radially from Tycho. Craters lie indifferently on these brighter' streaks and on the intervening darker spaces, and some craters can be seen which lie right across a bright streak with parts of their ring on the darker regions on both sides of the streak. This proves that the craters were formed long after the great streaks. "\yhen the streaked surface wUs formed, it must have been tolerably smooth; for we see the streaks best under a full illumination, and there is no sign of any difference of elevation between them and the darker ground all around; they are neither long ridges nor long valleys, but mere surface markings. Yet must they have been formed by mighty vulcanian disturbance, such, indeed, as we may be certain went on at an early stage of the moon’s history, to which these radiating streaks must be referred. It seems clear that, as Nasmith has illustrated by experiment, they belong to the stage of the moon’s history when her still hot and plastic crust parted with its heat more rapidly than the nucleus of the planet, and so, contracting more quickly, was Tent by the resistance of the internal matter, which, still hot and molten, flowed into the rents, and spreading, formed the long, broad streaks of brighter surface.

Joshua R. Giddings as a Duelist.

Giddings had made some fiery remarks on abolition and the South on the floor of the Senate. In this he drew a Southern Senator rather roughly over the coals. The Senator became v6ry angry and sent him a challenge. He would have an apology or blood. Giddings accepted , the challenge, but he wrote that he was unacquainted with the use of the pistol or other fire-weap-ons. As challenged party he had the choice ofc the weapons. He would name rawhides, tough, long and wiry. The two combatants should have the thumbs of their left hands bound tightly together, and, with rawhides in their right, should castigate each other until

one gave in. The Southerner refused to accept the challenge and the matter dropped Had he accepted it, Giddings, who was a tall, muscular fellow, would have cut him-to pieces.— Cleveland Leader.

Care of the Skin.

'Nothing is more conducive to a clear skin than the moderate use of mild, pure toilet soap and rain, not cistern, water. Cistern water grows hard and limy by standing in cemented reservoirs, and thus becomes scarcely less injurious than originally hard water itself. Pure water, or milk and water, are the cosmetics par excellence; but although all sufficient during perfect health, are most insufficient for the inhabitants of towns, whose health is rarely perfect, assailed as it is by heated rooms, improper diet, and ill-ventilated places of amusement It is, therefore, necessary that art should come to the aid of nature, from whom we expect too much. In the open air, no less than within doors, in walking, at balls, at the theater, the skin becomes charged with impurities, which plain water will not remove. To cleanse and restore it to its freshness nothing is better than the following preparations, used in the place of soap: almond-meal, | 'pound; fine oat-meal, i pound; powdered borax, 1 ounce; mix thoroughly together and use in place of soap. It is a mistaken idea of many people that soap is a mere cleaning compound, and that one kind answers as well as another, Some even pretend to find a latent virtue in common yellow soap,' and declare it more tonic than the mildscented, carefully prepared cake of the perfumer and chemist. When one thinks of the toilet operations of many American farm-houses, the crash rollers, acrid yellow soaps, and hard water of the kitchen sink —common toilet service of the entire family—one ceases to wonder that the brilliant complexions of our rustic belles become, long before middle life, the coarse, yellow, sodden ones of many rustic matrons. Common bar soap contains an amount of alkali, besides rosin and turpentine, enough to ruin any good complexion. If the skin is in such condition that a tonic is needed, if it seem greasy, lax, and as if too loosely overlaid the tissue, or dry from profuse use of powder, wash the face and hands well with warm water, wipe the face dry, then with the bare hand rub on cold cream made Of almond oil—not lard. Do this moderately five or ten minutes, then with a soft tdwel go over the face firmly and wipe it clean. There’ will be no grease .left/ but the oil has both cleansed and qourisflied the skin. Do this everydqy spy a week, and see h<?w fresh and jajj: the complexion will become. It is an old and popular expedient of handsome women to obviate the. dryness and heat of the skin that may exist from any cause, A Parisian compound, nearly like oqr cold cream, used to anoipt the face, consists of: white wax, 30 grammes; oil of sweet almonds, 60 grammes; mutton suet, 30 grammes; starch powder to make a paste.Demorest’s Magazine, . <■ .■■■

A Thames Fisherman.

’Cuninor Hurst rears its picturesque-1 head by-and-by on the Berkshire- banks of the river, fitting scene .for the troubles of Amy Bosbart, whose romantic life Sir Walter Scott has blend* ed with thp local history of Cumnor. “Never heard of the lady, as I know on,” said a fisherman who was trolling for pike close by; “you’d better inquire of yon "chaji oni fto bank there; he knows.” s We inquired of the chap "on the’bank’ He was “setting some night lines,‘"he said. Oh yes, he had heard tell of Kenilworth, but it was not anywhere hereabouts; he believed it was somewhere in Scotland; but it was quite true that Amy Bobsart, Countess of Leicester, was a prisoner at Cumnor Place—leastwise he had always understood so. Old King Harry the Eighth had a good deal to do with this neighborhood, he had always been told, but that was before his day, and he had quite enough to do to get a living without bothering his head about such things. So he turned to his night lines for fish, and we pulled away. His head was a rough one, and he scratched it as he talked to us. He wore an old velvet shooting coat, a pair of jack-boots, and a colored neckerchief, and as we drew away he stood up to watch us with a stolid gaze and a farewell nod, as much as to say, “If pulling a boat down stream were honest labor, you loafers would be doing something else.”— Joseph Hatton, in Harper's Magazine.

Swedish Folk Lore.

On New Year’s Eve, after the light is put out in your bedroom, you must throw your slipper over your left shoulder, and then look next morning to see in what position it has fallen. If the toe points to the door you will leave that house during the year, but if the toe points inward then you will remain where you are for another year. It is customary also on the same night for the people to go out into the house where the logs of wood are kept that are used for fuel. Each one picks up the first log that comes to "hand; if it is a clean and shapely piece so will his (her) future partner be and vice versa. —Notes and Queries.

Merited Charity.

' “You might give me a pe~>riy,” said a well-educated mendicant to a gentleman on the street. “I feel very sorry for you, my son,” replied the gentleman. “Do you?” • * “Oh, yes.” “Won’t you put your hand in your pocket and tell me how sorry you feel,” replied the boy.— Carl Pretzel's Weekly. A prominent physician asserts that it is dangerous to loan your lighted cigar to a stranger, contending that disease can and very often is conveyed from one to another by this custom. Mr. I. Carpenter, 463 Fourth avenue, New York, after running a gauntlet of eight years’ rheumatism, used St. Jacobs Oil, the greatspain reliever, by which he was entirely cured and has had no return of his complaint.

OUT OF THE DEPTHS.

Our Correspondent's Kesenrdies and a Remarkable Osboit—ts He Describes. St. Albaxb, Vt., Jac. 10,1884. Mmsrs. Editors: The upper portion of Vermont is one of the pleasantest recions in America during the summer and one of the bleakest during winter. It affords ample opportunity for the tourist, provided he chooses the proper season, but the present time is not that season. Still there are men and women here who not only endure the climate but praise it unstintingly, and that, too, in the face of physical hardships the most intense. The writer heard of a striking illustration of this a few days since, which is given herewith: Mr. Joseph Jacques is connected with the. Vermont Central railroad in the capacity of master mason. He is well advanced In years, with a ruddy complexion and hale as pearance, while his general bearing is such as to instantly impress one with his strict honor and integrity. Several years ago he became afflicted with most distressing troubles, which prevented the prosecution of his duties. He was languid, and yet restless, while at times a dizziness would come over him which seemed almost blinding. His will power was strong, and he determined not to give way to the mysterious influence wbidh seemed undermining his life. But the pain and annoying symptoms were stronger than his will, and he kept growing gradually worse. About that time he began to notice a difficulty in drawing on his boots, and it was by the greatest effort that he was able to force his teet into them. In this manner several weeks passed by, until finally one night, while in great agony, he discovered that his feet had, in a short while, swollen to enormous proportions. The balance of the narrative can best be described in his own wbrds. He said: “When my wife discovered the fact that I was so bloated, she sent for the doctor immediately. He made a most careful examination and pronounced me in a very serious condition. Notwithstanding his care, I grew worse, and the swelling of my feet gradually extended upward in my body. The top of my head pained me terribly; indeed, so badly that at times it seemed almost as if it would burst. My feet were painfully cold, and even when surrounded with hot flannels and irons felt as if a strong wind were blowing on them. Next-my right leg became paralyzed. This gave me.no pain, but it was exceedingly annoying. About this time I began to spit blood most freely, although my lungs were in perfect conditoin, and I knew it did not come from them.» My physicians were careful and untiring in their attentions, but unable* to relieve my sufferings. My neighbors and friends thought I was dying, and many called to see me, fully twenty-five on a single Sunday that I now recall. At last my agony seemed to culminate in the most intense, sharp pains I have ever known or heard of. If red-hot knives, sharpened to the highest degree, had been run through my body, constantly they qould not have hurt me wprse. I would spring up in "bed, sometimes as much as three feet, cry out In tpy agony and long .for death. One night the misery was so intense that I arose and attempted to go into the next room, but was unable to lift my swollen feet above the little threshold that obstructed them. I fell back upon the bed and gasped in my agony; but felt unable even to breathe; It seemed like death; ;• “Several years ago Bev. ‘Dr. J. E.

He Took the Hint.

They were sitting alone in the parlor when she sweetly remarked: “George, dear, can you tell me why it is that the course of true love never runs smoothly?” “It does run smoothly, darling,” said George, passionately. “What could be smoother than the course of onr true love?” “And love is blind, is it not?” she went on. “Yes, love is said to be blind,” replied George, wondering what she was trying to get at. “Well, I can tell you why true love never runs smoothly,” and she looked at the lapel of his coat as though she would like to go to sleep there. “Love is blind and instead of helping the blind it is considered the proper thing to pull down the blind. ” George acted upon this hint and pulled down the blind. — Philadelphia Call. ______________ After much cogitation, and a desire to do injustice to none, we have come at last to the conclusion that the most disinterested, self-sacrificing mortal on the foot-stool is the boy learning to smoke.

Mineral Remedies Superseded.

All excspt those who refuse to be convinced by the most positive proof, admit the infinite super orlty of Hostetter's Btomich Bitters to ths mineral remedies which it has to a very isr.-at extent utipersed ;d, and which, it is to be hoped, for the sake of the human stomach, may eventually be abandoned altogether. The Bitters are a most poient corrective of disorders of tle liver, stomach, and kidneys. Habitual constipation, dyspepsia, bowel complaints, and the nnmerous and changeful symptoms which indicate Internal weakness or disease, are in every instance not only relieved, but cured, by a persistent and systematic use of this sovereign remedy. Intermittent and bilious remittent fevers may be surely prevented by a daily use of this powerful, but pleasant and mild tonic. Physical vigor is the best armor in which to encounter disease. Secure it by recourse to the Bitters. The more you checque a spendthrift the faster he goes. Woman’s chief beauty is her skin.

TIMELY SUGGESTIONS ABOUT PNEUMONIA.

(Albany Evening Journal.] Thia la the time of year when so many persons fall victims to pneumonia and other lung diseases, hence we call attention to the following interview with a prominent physician: “What la pneumonia, which prevail at thia season of the. year?” “ Pneumonia is an acute lung disease, and is a dangerous and common disorder. It commences with a severe chill and fever. It seems to be an affection of the lungs, but it is really caused- by the b’ood being impoverished by the ncn-removal of natural acids by the liver and kidneys. Pneumonia is always proof of diseased kidneys and liver. Indeed, this is true of many other lung disorders, also. “Pneumonia is a very dangerous disease, and the patient must be treated with hot drinks and the chest be covered with mustard poultices, and then call the best physician.” “ How would you prevent such diseases?" “By keeping the skin, liver, bowels, and kidneys in healthful activity. Thon the blood is free from acid po sons, and pneumonia need not be feared.” For this purpose we know of nothing better than Dr. David Kennedy’s Favorite Remedy, which is a highly reputed specific for ail liver, kidney, bowel, and blood disorders. It is made, wo believe, at Kondout, N. Y., sells for one dollar a bottle, and is the best and surest of all household remedies. . Pneumonia is very common and fatal, and whatever will prevent its ravages is worthy the highest cotnirendation. The speaker who “took the floor” had to return it.

The Best for Butter.

There is but one best color for butter, and that that is Wells Richardson & Co.’s improved Butter Color, no candid investigator doubts. It is the best butter color in the world; is free from sediment or impurity; always ready for instant use, and it imparts to butter that rich dandelion yellow, without a tinge of red, which is the acme of desirability in any butter color. Tiles with scriptural texts upon them may be regarded as text-tile fabrics.

When Doctors Disagree

It will be time eno’ugh to doubt the reliability of Kidney-Wort. Doctors all agree that it is a most valuable medicine in all disorders of the Liver, Kidneys, and Bowels, and frequently prescribe it. Dr. P. C. Ballou, of Monkton, says: “The past year I have used it more than ever, and with the best results. It is the most successful remedy I * have ever used."
