The London Fire Brigade.

There are now 50 stations of the brigade in London and 4 stations are on the Thames, where steam-floating engines are moored. In connection with these stations, which, are all in communication with each other by means of the electric telegraph, there are 53 telegraph lines and 85 miles of telegraph, 1 iron-floating barge to carry a land steam fire-engine, 5 large land steam fire-engines, 14 small land steam fire-engines, 15 seven-inch manual fire-engines, 12 under six-inch manual fire-engines and 396 firemen. There are 105 fire-escape stations and 125 fire-escapes. The number of firemen employed on the several watches kept up during the day is 90; the number at night is 181, so that 27Aire employed on -watch duty in every twenty-four hours. The number sick, injured, on leave, or under instruction is usually between 40 and 50. The remaining men are available for general work at fires. During 1873 the calls made on the brigade for a turnout of engines were as many as 1,708. Of these 83 proved to be false alarms snd 72 were alarms of chimney fires. Of fires other than chimney fires there were 1,548, of which 166 resulted in serious damage and 1,382 iu slight damage. In 20 of those fires life was lost and in 74 of them life was seriously endangered. The number of lives actually lost was 35, of whom 12 were taken out of the burning buildings before death but subsequently succumbed in hospitals or elsewhere. The total number of calls for chimney fires and in which no alarm of general fire had been raised was 8,602. to these cases there was no attendance of engines but only of firemen with hand-pnmps. The quantity of water used for extinguishing fires in the metropolis daring the year 1873 was about 32,500,000 gallons, or 101,000 tons. The working accounts for the year show the expenditure of the brigade to have been nearly $370,000. Of this, between SIBO,OOO and $185,000 went in salaries and wages, and nearly SIO,OOO for men’s clothing, something under $2,000 for payments to medical officers, and about $2,500 in pensions to late officers and widows.

The American Indians.

Six great families of nations are recognized among the aboriginal inhabitants of the region of the Rocky Mountains,, and a hasty count of the summaries given in the books shows that more than 700 tribes are specifically mentioned, without including long lists of tribes of whom nothing more than the name appears to be known and which may Be mythical or described under some other designation. Lying along the Arctic coast are the Hyperboreans; between the fifty-fifth and forty-second parallels are the Columbians, after whom came the California and Great Basin Indians, the New Mexicans, the wild tribes of Mexico and finally the wild tribes of Central America. If the strength of the Indians under control of our Government is correctly estimated at 800,000 it is hardly possible that the entire savage population of the North American continent can exceed half a million.— Oaiamy.

Adventures of two Runaway Boys.

About live months ago two lads, one eight years of age and the other thirteen, sobs of Mr. Rockiey, a business man of Rochester, were scat by him to * store in that city to porduse some goods for the house. He gave thorn » check for twenty dollars to pay for the articles, and on their way to the store they loot the check. Fearing to retupn without it they ran away. For weeks they tramped together, the elder one working whenever he could get work, and supporting the younger. Mr. Hockley was almost heart-broken over their disappearance. The ease was put in the hands of the Rochester police, and advertisements inserted in all the prominent papers in the country giving a full description of both lads, and offering a reward fear a dew to their whereabouts, but time rolled on and no tidings came. Meanwhile the two boys found food and shelter as best they could, traveling by day and sleeping in barns and outhouses by night till, cold weather coming on, the elder one fonnd himself no longer able to properly care for his younger brother, and he resolved to place him in some institution. They arrived at Albany or Troy, and watching an opportunity jumped on the banter and coupling of a locomotive bound south on the Hudson River Railroad without a train. In such a perilous manner did they ride twenty-five or thirty miles, the older one holding the younger till a train was reached, on which they rode to Yonkers, and there the younger lad was put in the almshouse, the authorities afterward sending him to the House of Refuge. A gardener who resides on Southeast avenue, Poughkeepsie, formerly resided at Rochester, and he has a son who was down town on Friday last at the Holly Tree Tan and there espied the older Rockiey brother, having known him in Rochester. He asked him what he was doing there, when Rockiey told him his father was dead and he had left home. The gardener's son told his father of the circumstance, when the latter telegraphed to Mr. Rockiey at Rochester that his son was here. The next day (Saturday) Mr. Rockiey arrived and found his boy. He questioned him about his younger brother, when the older one told him where he had left him. Mr. Rockiey left him till he should go to Yonkers. There he found out the details of the transfer of the younger boy to the House of Refuge and proceeded thither. The little one did not at first recognize his father, hut as soon as he made himself known the feelings of both gave way. He brought him hack to the city on Saturday night and put him face to face with his elder brother, when both laughed and cried alternately. The father had brought abundance of clothing with him for them, and after fitting them out anew started with them on a late train for Rochester .—Poughkeepsie (N. T.) Eagle.

The True Economy.

The question is not how cheaply we can manage to keep soul and tfody together, but how can we bring both body and soul to the highest condition of vitality and power? To live is something more than to exist. How can we live most and best? How can we feed intellect and affection, conscience, sympathy, imagination, reverence, as well as the physical system? All pinching and restricting of diet is injurious in the long run. The bean-man, the bean-bread-man, the one-meal-a-day-man, the man who goes mousing about the world intent on cheapness, never makes the scales of power kick the beam. He wastes more than he saves. He checks an income instead of stopping an outgo. The men who make the most ado over the petty prudencies of life and perpetually obtrude their parsimonious practice on public notice never amount to anything, or do anything of account. Man wants all he can use, assimilate, organize, reproduce. The things that strengthen and beautify his essential manhood, that enrich his eentiments and refine his sensibilities, that ennoble his intellect and enlarge the scope of his being and the horizon of his possibilities, belong to him by right, as the crown and purple belong to royalty. Every man ought to aspire and labor to live generpusly, and have a comfortable and tasteful home, and surround himself and his family with everything that tends to increase health and happiness and create an atmosphere of intelligence and refinement. Beauty, elegance, art, society, music, are our birthright. It is not waste to spend what one has for things that foster a noble pride, heighten self*respect, beautify the body and cultivate the mind. It is true economy that spends something for books and pictures for occasional glimpses of nature and the entertainment of the stage. The charities and humanities are not luxuries that the poorest man on earth should deny himself of them. The loving, trustful, adorning sympathy that forgets his own wants and meager resources and breaks the costliest thing it has on the head of the one beloved is not a recklessness to be censured, but a devotion to be commended for its divine nobility. Saving may be ant-like and beaver-like, but sacrifice is God like. —Herald es Health.

Bob-Tailed Horses.

There are at least some things in which progress has been made in the right direction of late, and, notably, one of them is evidenced by the entire abandonment of the bob-tail fashion so prevalent twenty years ago. To anyone who can recall the long rows of stalls in almost every horse-dealer’s stable, city or country, with its paraphernalia of ropes and pullies and bars, and its kit of docking, pricking, nicking and searing tools, and who has ever witnessed "the barbarities practiced by the inevitable “boss doctor” upon the poor brutes given over *to his tender mercy in the name of fashion, it is a great relief to know that such cruelties have had their day. Now let clipping follow suit, and all horse-flesh will breathe easier, and only wonder “ what next V'—Prairie Farmer. — Business. A salesman in one of the principal wholesale manufacturing houses in New York sold $140,000 worth ofigoods in a trip of ten days during the past month.

HOUSEHOLD HINTS.

Obeax can be raised by freezing, but. this is not practiced in this country. These cold snaps are trying times for bouse plants. After every one we have, numbers of houses are left desolate of all that is suggestive of summer in one night; few realize the worth of newspapers in keeping out cold. One placed between the window and the “pets" is usually aIT that is needftd in preserving them safe through the oddest nigfit.— Exchange. 7 > : - Coltsfoot Lozenges. —To one pint of spring water add one handful of coltsfoot leaves; boil this down to a gill md let it stand till cold. Then strati* it through a fine woolen cloth (without pressing) and add half a pound of sugar. Boil to a sirup. Strain it again through a woolen cloth and put to it as much common black licorice as may he found neeessary to give it consistency. Then form it into any Shape or form you may Stt kick a cheap and permanent in e ink dissolve one part asphaltnm in four parts of oil of turpentine and add black lead to make it of a proper consistency. Or dissolve the same amount of asphaitum in turpentine and color with printers’ ink. This is the same Ink that is sold in small tin tubes with thin brass plates cut in initials or names*, but the supply is so small that it soon becomes exhausted, and with this recipe it can easily he renewed. Crusted Apple Pudding.— Pare, core and stew slightly two quarts of tart, mellow apples, and place them in a pud-ding-dish ; then to one and a half pints of wheatmeal add one gill of Zante currants, and boiling water enough to make a dough, stirring lightly until mixed; roll it out one-third of an inch thick, and spread over the apples. Bake it In a quick oven forty or fifty minutes, take out, reverse on a hot plate, mash the apples with a spoon, and sweeten, if desired; cut in pieces like a pie and serve warm, with some fruit sauce.

Raised Connecticut Doughnuts.— Heat a pint of milk just lukewarm and stir into a small cup of melted lard and sifted flour till it is a thick batter, add a small cup of domestic yeast and keep it warm till the batter is light, then work into four beaten eggs, two cups of sugar rolled free from lumps, a teaspoonful of salt and two of cinnamon. When the whole is well mixed knead in wheat lour until about as stifi as biscuit dough. Bet where it will keep warm, till of spongy lightness, then roll the dough out half an inch thick and cut into cakes. Let them remain till light, then fry them in hot lard. Horticultural Ornaments. —“ One of the prettiest objects I have ever beheld,” writes a correspondent, “is a spruce cone filled with sand and grass seed which sprouted and grew out of the scales. It is now as large as a cocoanut with the husk on, and of the most vivid green color. The grass grows with a luxuriance that is remarkable. To produce this charming specimen the cone was baked in a stove oven till the scales opened out equally. It was then carefully filled with equal parts of sand and grass seed, a string tied to the top, and the whole suspended in the dark, in a jar, with water enough to come halfway over the cone. In a week it was placed in the sunlight, when the seed sprouted rapidly, and in a month filled a gallon jar completely, it has been taken out and hung in the window. Every morning it is thoroughly soaked in milkwarm water.”

Anointing For Scarlet Fever.

Upon the recommendation of Scheeman, the anointing of the body with fat has been extensively practiced in Germany during the past ten years, with the view of lowering the temperature and hastening the desquamation. Dr. Bayles suggests, in this connection, the employment of cocoa butter, as producing a more cooling and refreshing effect upon the patient, and emitting a more agreeable odor in the sick chamber. This agent, on account of its solid consistence, is more readily applied than either fat or oil, and is more easily absorbed by the skin. Furthermore, it is thought to afford the system a certain amount of nourishment.

In severe fevers the entire surface of the body should be rubbed with this substance every hour, or least once every four hours. Its application is also recommended in typhoid fever, in cases where the patients manifest a dread of water, or where the application of water is impossible; likewise iff other inflammatory diseases, especially the severer forms of inflammatory rheumatism and tuberculosis.— Herald of Health. Some years ago an acquaintance of ours had several children very sick with scarlet fever. After their recovery he communicated his recipe, which was published at the time in this paper; he had kept his little patients well anointed with the rind of smoked hams. He believed his treatment to have saved his children, and we remember to have received at the time a number of letters ’from persons who had practiced the method after our publication, commending the ham remedy as important to the community. —Scientific American.

Woman’s Spite.

A gbntleman and bis wife some time since engaged board at a private board-ing-house on Elizabeth street, and until .recently everything passed off amicably. The boarders, however, had a small child, and lately the hostess became convinced that said child was a detriment to the peace and prospective prosperity of the house. 80 she gently broached the subject of leaving to the gentleman's wife, performing the task as delicately as possible. Bat it appears that the point was very offensive to the boarders, and when all had been packed the women indulged in a little quarrel, using considerable harsh language. A few days thereafter, while cleansing the vacated rooms, a valuable ring, worth] some seventy-five dollars, wasioond in a stand drawer. A polite note informing the late boarders of the discovery of the ring was immediately sent. In reply thereto an express wagon drove up’ to the door, and the expressman presented a written order for the ring. It was not

complied with, as the hostess determined they should come in person. The easel -.was then placed in legal heads by tim ex-boarders, and an attorney addressed a letter stating that nnteas the ring was delivered legal measures would ho taken tor its restitution. At last accounts 4be < ring was inclosed in a box sad then packed in a barrel ready to be sent by an expressman. — Detroit Free Prete . Singular that Trask should have died of heart disease—which is supposed be peculiarly the fate of tobacco-users.

Treating the Wrong Disease.

Many times Women call upon their family physicians, one with dyspepsia, another with palpitation, another with trouble of the breast, another with pain here and there, and in this way they all present alike to themselves and their easy-going and indifferent doctors separate and distinct diseases, for which he prescribes his pills and potions, assuming them to be such, when, in reality, they are all symptoms caused by some uterine disorder; and while they are thus only abie perhaps to palliate for a time, they are ignorant of the cause, and encourage their practice until large bills are made, when the suffering patients are no better in the end, but probably worse for the delay, treatment, and other complications made, and which a proper medfeine directed to the cause would have entirelv removed, thereby instituting health and comfort instead of prolonged misery. From Miss Lobinda E. St. Clair, shade, Athens Co., Ohio: “ Dr. R. V. Pierce, Buffalo, N. Y.—Your Favorite Prescription is working almost like a miracle on me. I am better already than I have been for over two years.” From Ella A. Schafer, Zanesville, Ind.: “ Dr. Pierce—l received the medicine you sent me and began using it immediately. As a result of the treatment I feel better than I have for three years.” From Mrs. John K. Hamlin, Odell, HL: “ Dr. Pierce—The Favorite Prescription has done me good, which I am very thankful for.” Dr. Pierce’s Favorite Prescription is sold by dealers in medicine.

A Nation of Dyspeptics.— We live fast—dissipate in everything except righteousness, and fill eftrly graves. We drink all kinds of poisoned alcoholic spirits, and swallow without mastication pork, grease, and every conceivable carbonaceous, soul-dwarfing, life-destroy-ing, system-clogging, indigestible food. Dr. Walker’s Vegetable Vinegar Bitters cannot stop this in a radical manner—but it will remove the evil effects, and the recovering patient, with fresh pure, vitalized, electrical blood flowing through his arteries and veins, will have a clearer head and a cooler judgment, which, coupled with experience, will cause him to abstain in the future. Good, nutritious, digestible diet, which the most delicate stomachs may take, can be found in cracked wheat, corn bread, tomatoes, raw or soft-boiled eggs, baked apples, boiled rice, plain rice pudding, corn-starch, rare beef, mutton and poultry. With Vinegar Bitters and moderation in eating and drinking there is no incurable case of dyspepsia. 21 It is now generally admitted by honest physicians that, when once the consumption is fairly fastened upon the lungs, no human power can save the patient from death. They also say that about 50 per cent, of those who die from this disease can trace the cause to a neglected cough or cold, which might have been cured by a small bottle of Liquid Opodeldoc, or, what is the same thing, Johnson'* Anodyne Liniment.
