Woman Cannot Invent.

It seems a little singular that the records of our Patent Office contain but a slight sprinkling of names indicating the feminine gender. It looks as though all the heavy thinking was being shouldered on to us poor men, and it is high time somebody was raising a fuss about the matter, and insisting that, if woman expects to vote, she must keep up with her end of the double-tree. But whether it is on account of the brain-blistering tendency of back hair, interference with the proper circulation of the blood by tight lacing and Sunday evening courtship, hot irons and bangs, or wearing shoes smaller than the feet, we don’t know, but it looks as though there was a chance for philosophy to do a little missionary work at home, before it goes to the sky in search of steady employment. It is not because woman is not smart, or quick with ideas, for we have seen one small-sized woman talk four grown-up men into a cold perspiration, and do it easy; and it is not because man is more brainy or fertile in resources, for woman, God bless her bright eyes, can do more to gladden home with a twodollar bill in stringent times than man can do with all his muscle and philosophy. When the wolf crouches on the doorstep, with the apparent intention of becoming domesticated, it is woman, frail and feeble little body though she may be, that can be depended upon to drive him away and give the children bread, and she -don’t go out to beg it either, but gets it honestly, and pays for it with labor that may shorten her days, while her big, strong and gifted husband walks the town in disappointment and dies by his own hand in gloomy despair. Neither can it be because she is lacking in expedients, for you may limit her wardrobe ever so stintingly, and she will turn this, overhaul that, remodel the other, and trip off to church as neat as a pin. But the records at Washington show that it is that way, and we must make the best of it. It is sad, but it is true. With all her gifts and' graces woman comes up with a round turn when she faces machinery, and stands in the presence of cold, unemotional cast iron, wheels, levers, and shop-gear generally. She has no inventive faculty, and would scrub her nails off before she would pause to sit down on an inverted tub and evolve from the chaotic notions in her head a washing-machine that would save Soap and muscle, and be a solace to her sisterhood. Many of them are wearing themselves out in overtaxing their strength, when five minutes’ thought and a little gumption could be worked into a contrivance for getting a drunken man’s boots off without straining a tendon. And then think of the labor of getting a boy up in the morning. Thousands of women are so tired out with the severe exertions of that little job, that they are made nervous and fretful for the rest of the day, when a few little ropes, a pulley or two, a pair of ice tongs, aud a few brains would yank that boy into wakefulness quicker than he could stone a dog, and that, too, with no necessity for climbing stairs or leaving the dining-room. Think of the untold peaceful homes a few patents of this kind would make. Another matter needs thoughtful consideration, and that is the enormous waste of female vitality incurred in the rapid vibration of the slipper against the caboose of the aforesaid boy’s pantaloons. A very little brain work could make suitable attachments to any sewing machine to perform the duty w.th far more vigor and not the least waste of motive force. The only thing the machinery could not do would be to kiss the boy as the grapnel let go of him. But that is not exhaustive labor, and a woman can stand a power of it without breaking down. —Chicago Ledger.

Moscow’s Famous Citadel.

I have heard and read a great deal about the Kremlin, writes John L. Stoddard, but had no distinct idea of what it was like until I saw it. I had no idea of its vast extent; that within its walls were contained palaces, churches, monasteries, and aisenals. walls surrounding all these structures are of vast extent, height, and thickness. At frequent intervals are watchtowers of fanciful design, and the battlements are loopholed for the •discharge of missiles. Inside is the Red Square, so called from the thousands of judicial murders there committed, and in the center of it is a group of statuary called “The Prince and Moujik.” There are many entrances into the Kremlin, but the principal one is the Redeemer Gate, which is consided a holy place, on account of a certain famous statue which finds lodging in one of its niches. When passing through this portal every one is supposed to take off his hat. The Convent of the Ascension is a strange freak of architectural fancy, but beautiful withal. Near to it is a place where the holy oil is manufactured, with which all Russian children are baptized. Around the arsenal are hundreds of cannon taken from the French, and there I saw that immense piece of ordnance called the King of Cannon, but which, like the King of Bells, also in the Kremlin, is fit for nothing but show. The Ivan Tower and the cathedral, with its numberless costly thrones, are monuments of human skill. It is in this cathedral that the Czars of Russia crown themselves, no other than their own hands being considered fit for the holy office. The palace, which has an unpretentious appearance outside, being coated with stucco, is of great extent. It contains the St. George’s Hall and numberless suits of apartments for the guests of royalty. The throne of the Czar was shown to me, and as I stood looking at it I almost trembled as I thought

of the undisputed sway, of the limitless power of life and death over hundred millions of people, which he who had occupied xt a few days before held. — Exchange.

She Caught a Severe Cold in Jerusalem in 1565.

On a west-bound Michigan Central train the other day were a delicate-ap-pearing young woman and an intelli-gent-looking young man, evidently husband and wife. Immediately behind this couple sat the man—to be found on every train, who would die if not permitted to hear the sound of his own voice at all times and in all places. The young lady had a troublesome cough, a fact which seemed to bother the talking machine behind her greatly. At last he leaned forward and addressed her escort: “That gal’s got a bad cough.” “Yes.” “Ever try catnip tea?” “She hasn’t drank anything else for more than two hundred years. She caught a severe cold in 1568. I had fifty barrels of catnip tea put into the baggage car for her use between here and Chicago. ” (Pause.) “Lungs?” “No, bunions. That’s purely a bunion cough you will notice, if you watch her closely. ” “Ain’t the draft a leetle strong from that window?” after a longer pause. “No, she has to .have it. It takes 15,000 pounds of air to make her a respectable breath. We have a patent breath incubator which she uses at home. It covers 17,000 acres of valuable land.” “Did you say she -was your wife ?” “No; I didn’t say anything of the sort. She’s one of these new-fashioned infernal machines that I’m taking over to England to blowup the Queen. The only trouble is that I am subject to fits, and when I get one of them I break things up terrible.” “What brings them on to you?” “Talking. Why, it was only yesterday that I killed three men, a woman, and a, pair of twins before I could be got under control. I feel very queer about the head now. I ” “I reckon I’ll go out into the smokin’ car,” said the bore, sidling out of the seat. “I don’t feel very well myself. ” “Don’t hurry away,” shouted the young man, while a general titter ran through the car. —Louisville CourierJournal.

“Old Injin Rubber.”

The author of “Up and Down the Irrawaddy” relates the following incident of his visit, on an elephant’s back, to the Caves of Gautama, and an encounter with a huge boa constrictor: “Shorlv after emerging from the jungle, our liveliest curiosity was aroused by the eccentric movements of our elephant, and the sudden excitement of his mahout, or driver. The man was leaning over the head of his beast, exploring the ground before him on each side with anxious scrutiny, talking all the while to the elephant, in quick, sharp ejaculations, sometimes shrill, sometimes subdued, sometimes almost whispered in his ear. “ ‘Old Injin Rubber’—the name of our elephant—crept forward cautiously (imagine an elephant on tip-toe), hesitating, suspicious,- vigilant, defensive, holding his precious trunk high in the air. Presently he stopped short, stared before him in evident agitation, for I felt the mass of flesh vibrating beneath mess when a heavy-laden wagon crosses a suspension bridge. “Suddenly, with trumpet pointed to the sky, he blew a sharp, brazen bifist, and trotted forward. At the same moment an exultant exclamation from the mahout told the story in a - word: “ ‘The boa! the boa!’ “Bight in the path, where the sun was hottest, lay a serpent, his vast length of splendid ugliness gorged, torpid and motionless—not coiled, but outstretched, prostrate and limp—abject under the weight of his own gluttony. The boa-constrictor had just dined. “ ‘Old Injin Rubber’ paused, as if for instructions; he received them from the mahout’s boat-hook on the back of his skull. Half a dozen more rolls and lurches, and he planted his huge forefoot on the drunken dragon’s head. The monster wriggled and squirmed, now twisting his great girth in seemingly everlasting knots; now erecting all his length, without a kink, in the air; now thrashing the ground with resounding stripes, till at last, beaten out, his strength all spent, even his tail subdued, he lay dead. Then again and again the elephant tossed the serpent’s dying bulk indignantly in the air, and dashed it to the earth. ”*

It Had Its Effect.

“You are much taller than you were a year ago,” said a gentleman to a friend. “Yes, I have reformed; that makes me taller.” “And how is that ?” “Well, as I have reformed, I have become, necesearilv, more upright.”— Carl Pretzel’s Weekly.

An eminent scientific man lately paid a visit to an old college chum, a minister in Perthshire. The minister being asked about the visit, said: “He came to see me here some time ago and stayed a day or two. He is terribly unsound.” “ You had a tough argument, I dare say. ” “ ’Deed had we; he is awful clever, and we sat up half the night debating. He is awful unsound.” “But you felt that you had the best of the argument, didn’t you?” “Weel, I am not verra sure that I made much impression—he is awful clever ; but I was upsides in the mornin’.” “How?” “I pat him in til my prayer.”

FOUR ACTS PLAYED.

Sad Report About Ex-President Arthur— Will the Fifth and Final Act Be a Tragedy? (Rochester Democrat and Chronicle.] ‘‘Dr. Lincoln, who was at the funeral of ex-B.»cretary Frelinghuysen, fays ex-Presi-deut Arthur looked very unwell. He is suffer.ng from Bright’s disease. During the past year it has assumed a very aggravated form." That telegram is Act IV. of a drama written by ex-President Arthur’s physicians. In Act 1. he was made to appear in "Malaria,” of which all the country was'told when he went to Florida. In Act 11. he was represented a tired man. worn down, walking the sands at Old Point Comfort, and looking eastward over the Atlantic towurd Europe for a longer rest. The curtain ro Is up for Act 111. upon the distinguished actor atfceted with melancholy from Bright’s d.sease, while Act iV. il scorers him with the d.sease "in an aggravate! form, suffering intensely (which is unusual), and about to take a sea voyage.” Just such as this is the plot of many dramas by playwrights of the medical profession. They write the first two or three acts with no conception of what their character will develop in the final one. They have not the discernment for tracing in the early, what tho latter Impersonations wilt be. Not one physician in a hundred has the adequate microscopic and chemical appliances for discovering Bright's disease in its early stages, and when many do finally comprehend that their patients are dying with it, when death occurs they will, to cover up their ignorance of it, pronounce the fatality to have beon caused by ordinary ailments, whereas these ailments are really results of Bright’s disease, of which they are unconscious victims. Beyond any doubt, 80 p?r cent, of all deaths, except from epidemics and accidents, result from diseased kidneys or livers. If the dying be distinguished and his friends too intelligent to be easily deceived, his physicians perhaps-pronounce the complaint to be pericarditis, pyaemia, septicsemia, bronchitis, pleurltis, valvular lesions of the heart, pneumonia, etc. ir the deceased be less noted, "malaria” is now the fashionable assignment of the cause of death. But all the same, named right or named wrong, this fearful scourge gathers them in! While it prevails among per-onsof sedentary habits—lawyers, clergymen, Congressmen—it also plays great havoc among farmers, day laborers, and mechanics, though they do not suspect it, because their physicians keep It from them, if indeed they are able to detect it. It sweeps thousands of women and children into untimely graves every year. The hoalth gives way gradually, the strength is variable, the appetite fickle, the vigor gets less and less. This isn't malaria—it Is the beginning of kidney disease, and will end—who does not know how? No, nature has not been remiss. Independent researeh has given an Infallible remedy for this common disorder; but of course the bigoted physicians will hot use Warner’s Safe Cure, because It is a private affair and cuts up their practice by restoring the health of those who have been invalids for years. The new saying of “how common Bright’s disease is becoming among prominent men 1 ” is getting old, and as the Englishman would say, sounds “stupid”—especially “stupid" since this disease is readily detected by the more learned men and specialists of this disease. But the “common run ” of physicians, not detecting it, give the patient Epsom salts or other drugs prescribed by the old code of treatment under which their grandfathers and great-grandfathers practiced! Anon, we hear that the patient is “comfortable.” But ere long, may be, they “tap” him ar.d take some water from him aud again the “comfortable” story is told. Torture him rather than allow him to use Warner’s Safe Cure! With such variations the doctors play upon the unfortunate until«his shroud is made, when we learn that he died from heart disease, pytemia, septiesrmia or some other deceptive though “dignified cause.” Ex-President Arthur’s caso is not singular —it is typical of every such case. “He ia suffering intensely.” This is not usual. Generally there is almost no suffering. He may recover, if he will act independently of his physicians. The agency named has cured thousands of persons even in the extreme stages—is to-day the mainstay of the health of hundreds of thousands. It Is an unfortunate fact that physicians will not admit there is any virtue outside their own sphere, but as each school denies virtues to all others, the people act on their own judgment and accept tbings-hy the record of merit they make. The facts are cause for alarm, but there is abundant hope in prompt and independent action.

Daniel Webster’s Personal Finances.

On one occasion Webster had invited some friends to dinner. As he left home in the morning he requested his wife -to send John down to the office about ten o’clock to go to market with him. John came down accordingly. Mr. Webster was busy writing. He asked John if he had any money. John replied in the negative. “Then,” said Mr. Webster, “go down to Mi-. Burritt and ask him to lend me $5.” (Burritt was a stationer in the lower story.) John came back and stated that Mr. Burritt had not $5, but sent him $lO, which Webster took and put in his waistcoat pocket. Pretty soon a poor woman came in on an aim-asking errand. Said Webster, still writing: “I know all about it; you’ve lost your husband and have five small children and nothing to eat. Take this!” and he gave her the ten-dollar note which J ohn had borrowed from Mr. Burritt. By and by he finished his work and remarked to his servant: “Now, John, we’ll go to market.” Down they went through Court and Washington streets and Dock Square to Quincy Market, below Faneuil Hall. Mr. Webster bought of the butchers at the southend of the market what suited him, but made no payments, as he had accounts with them. At last they reached a vegetable dealer of whom Webster also made a purchase and was about to pass on as before when the faithful John arrested him with the remark: “Mr. Webster, this man is a straDger to us; we never had dealings with him.” “True,” said the great lawyer, “very true;” and put his hand in his pocket for the money to pay the amount. Finding none, he said to his servant: “John, I thought you gave me some money just now ?” “So I did, sir, but you gave it to that poor woman who came into the office.” “Ah,” said Webster, “so I did, but I had forgotten all about it. Well, John, you must borrow some more money and come down and pay these people; and now we will go home.”— Ben: Per ley Poore, in the Boston Budget. * * * Stricture or the urethra in it* worst forms, speedily cured by our now and improved methods.

A Secretion That Contaminates the Blood.

'When the bile is diverted from It* proper channels, into the blood, which is a) ways the case in liver complaints, it ceases to be a healthy secretion, and becomes a poison. Its abnormal presence in the circulation and stomach is indicated by the suffusion of the skin with a hideous saffron tinge, by headaches, vertigo, nausea, pain in the right side and under the right shoulder blade, by indlgt stion, obstruction of the bowels, and other minor symptoms. Order may be substituted for this state of chaos, and further bodily evil averted by using the beneficent alterative and tonic, Hostetter’s Stomach Bitters, whioh, by relaxing the bowels, promotes the escape from the circulation of bilious impurities, besides rendering the action of the liver regular, and removing everv trace of dyspepsia This pleasant and purely vegetable antt-bilious medicine is not only inSnltely more effective than any form of mercury, but it is.on account of its freedom from hurtful properties, infinitely to be preferred to that poisonous drug.

Mexican Plowing.

The average Mexican peon is said not to be a success with a pair of five-liun-dred-pound steers hitched to a modern sulky plow. He reclines luxuriously in his seat, however, and tears up a furrow two inches deep—after a fashion. The ancient plow to whioh he is used, says a correspondent of the New York Evening Post, is a stick of hardwood four or five inches in diameter, sharpened at one end, which is sometimes shod with iron. About the middle of this the beam is attached, and at the back end a single handle. The beam has a cross-piece, to which the oxen’s horns are lashed with a rawhide. The peon then takes the handle in his right hand and a long goad-stick in his left. The plow makes a round-bottomed gutter in the ground two or three inches deep, sometimes deeper if the ground is in good condition. This gutter is about as straight as a rut in a New Jersey clay road, and varies about the same in depth. The ridge of hard earth that remains between these gutters varies in width from an inch to four or five inches at the top.—Chicago Tribune.

Brown’s Little Joke.

“Why, Brown, how short your coat is,” said Jones ono day to his friend Brown, who wittily replied: “Yes; but it will bo long enough before I get another.” Some men spend so much for medicines that neither heal nor help them, that new clothes is with them like angels’ visits—few and far between. Internal fevers, weaknoss of the lungs, shortness of breath and lingering coughs, soon yield to tho magic Influence of that royal remedy, Dr. H. V. Pierce's “Golden Medical Discovery.” “Haven't you finished scaling the fish yet, Sam?” “No, master; 'tls a very large one.” “Why, you have had time to scale a mountain.”

$500 Reward.

The present proprietors havo renewed this offer. All the druggists sell this remedy, together with the “Douche,” and all other appliances advised to be used in connection with it. No catarrh patient is longer able to say “ I cannot be cured.” You got SSOO in case of failure. Why is a black horse hard to train? because you can’t maktf a black horse a bay (obey).
