HYGIENE FOR SMOKERS.

A Scientific Man Tells Hon to Minimize the Evils of the Habit. In the Journal d ’ Hygiene Dr. Felix Bremont discusses some laws of health in their special application to smokers. He says caustically, to begin with, that he is not talking to schoolboys who puff cigarettes, ntjr to children who try to play the man by taking up one of his faults, but addresses himself to sure-enough smokers, the number of whom he lias no particular care to increase. The prime rule of hygiene in the code is radical enough, to be sure, and would very speedily, if consistently followed, do away with all the ills of smoking. It is the simple advice not to smoke at all, an injunction that seems to negative the learned Doctor’s preface that he is not aiming his remarks at children. We will take his word for it that hardly an old smoker but would avow it had been better for him had he never touched pipe or cigar: but popular science does not really comprehend a discussion of abstract morals, and it is the practical phase of the Doctor’s article rather than its aesthetic that we wish to consider. The evils of smoking may be granted off-hand, but since men will smoke the thing to be considered is how to diminish the bad effects of the practice. Happily M. Bremont is not a fanatic, and scorns not to point out means by which the delicious vice may be indulged at least expense to the system. Imprimis, the cigar smoker should use a holder. By that means les3 nicotine is absorbed, and the necessity for spitting is not so urgent. Long holders are better than short, because they better cool the smoke, and cheap ones are better than expensive ones becauso they will oftencr be renewed. There is, besides, a gain in point of cleanliness in the use of a holder. Too many hands touch the tobacco in its manufacture for it to escape soil, and sometimes it carries with it filth and diseased germs as well. Havana cigars are recommended as by all odds the best, though the difficulty of getting the genuine article is painfully recognized. There is very great imposition in the matter of Havana cigars. Very cheap and inferior goods are made in various part 3 of Europe and the United States, shipped to Havana for packing, and returned thence with the brand and label of genuine Havan,a cigars. At Hamburg, indeed, cigars are made from cabbage-leaf tobacco, and right there done up as Havanas, without the troublesome formality of shipping to Cuba. We suspect the samo thing is done in markets nearer home. Those cigars are run through the custom house with no greater bother to the manufacturers than taking them out to meet an incoming vessel, upon which they are dumped for this purpose. This simple act augments their value tenfold.

It is recommended as a good hygienic precaution to select dry cigars for smdking, as they are free from nicotine. Slow smoking is another excellent specific against the too great absorption of the toxic principles of tobacco. The fast smoker of wet cigars who does not spit during the process dangerously saturates his nervous system with poison. To such a person a pipe is altogether insipid. The more thoroughly the matter is medically considered the more positive becomes the judgment that cigarette smoking is the most pernicious use of tobaceo, and is one of the most frequent causes of disease of the heart. This is not perhaps due to the wrapper as much as to the habit cigar smokers have of inhaling the smoke, and to the further fact that cigarette tobacco is usually more moist than others, that it may be easily rolled. The pipe is, after all. the nearest approach to hygienic excellence the smoker may attain. But there are pipes and pipes. The best are the most porous, whatever the material. They are good in proportion to their absorption of the nicotine, and cease to be good after they have become seasoned. A seasoned meerschaum, for example, is no better than a metallic pipe, and "should, for health’s sake, at whatever sacrifice of nut-brown beauty, be boiled into its original usefulness as an absorbent. The bowl being well chosen, the stem should be long. With such precautions, and the use of dry, pure tobacco, the. smoker has the highest form of hygienic smoking, and the one that should really be most delightful tc the sense, soothing without stupefying, exhilarating without exciting the nerves. Shortstemmed pipes have been very properly termed “scorch-throats, ” and are most pernicious in their effects. Not only do they admit to the mouth all the poisons of the tobacco, but send in a smoke hot enough to burn any tongue that has not. been injuriously toughened by long abuse. The thickening of the epithelial layer is one effect of the use of these pipes which the French have named brule-gueule. Liberal ventilation of apartments in which smoking is indulged should be observed. The inhalation of foul smoke is a sure means of giving delicate membranes an injurious coating of nicotine. Cleanliness is strongly urged, not only for the benefit of the smoker, but for the sake of those who may be brought in contact with him. The odor and effect of tobacco exhaled from the smoker are not pleasant even to smokers, and there cannot be too much care given to the cleansing of tlie mouth. The teeth should be welt brushed, night and morning, and the valuable hint is given that a gargle of aromatized water is better to neutralize the odor of tobacco than the best scented pellets. —Chicago Inter Ocean.

The Oldest Author.

Rev. W. K. Gleig, of England, was one of the warmest friends of the second Dnke of Wellington, recently deceased. Mr. Gleig is almost a nonagenarian, and is the oldest living antnor who still wields a pen. “He was present at the battle of New Orleans in 1815, 3 says Labonchere in Truth, “and saw Gen. Fakenham killed, and some of the picked regiments of the British army defeated by Gen. Andrew Jackson and a few American backwoodsmen. Mr. Gleig, who subsequently took orders and became Chaplain General, wroted a spirited description in his ‘Subaltern’ of the engagement at New Orleans, and, having started as an

author in 1815, has quite lately contributed an article to Blackwood's Magazine. His mind and mempry are still entirely unshaken. He was a great favorite with the Iron Duke.”— Philadelphia Inquirer.

Mrs. Magoogin.

Mrs. McGlaggerty and the Irish widow sat on the front stoop of the latter’s house and watched Mrs. Magoogin’s billy-goat trying to eat the leg off an old iroft pet that was leaning against the hydrant. 1 “Do ye know, me frind,” said Mrs. Magoogin, “that it is a great wandher to me fhwat makes all the gerls be chewin’ gum ?” “They all do it,” said Mrs. McGlaggerty. “Fax’n they do,” responded the widhw, “ah’ ft’s not the girls alone but the min that does be afther chawin’ the thirty shtuff from maw rain’ till noight, like cows chawin’ their cuds.

Didn’t Need It.

A guest at a country hotel, after vainly trying to sleep, summoned the negro waiter and said: “Look here, what the deuce, am I going to do about these mosquitoes? They are about to eat me up.” “Sorry, boss, dat we had to put yer in dis room, but it couldn’ be hepped.” “That’s all right. No doubt the intentions of the establishment are good, but confound it, you don’t want me to be eaten up alive, do you?” “Oh, no, sah; doan wush ter harm yer.” “Well, why don’t yon give me a mosquito bar? You’ve given one to that man,” pointing to a bed at the opposite side of the room; “Yes, sah.” “Why, then, can’t I have one?” “ ’Case dar’s only one ’lowed ter each room, but I’ll take de one frum de gennerman, sah, an’ gin it ter yer. ” “I don’t want you to do that. He will complain.” “Oh, no, sah. He doan need it. ” “Why?" “’Case he’s dead, sah.” —Arkansaic Traveler.

Acorns.

A teacher in a grammar school, not a .thousand miles from Boston, gave an object lesson, one morning. The subject was “Acorns,” and at the conclusion requested: each pupil to Write an abstract of it. The following, which was handed in by a girl, not over bright, is not only one of the curiosities of composition literature, but a good illustration of the difficulties teachers meet with in training children to shoot ideas: “There is a great number of corns, namely: the capricorn, vegetable corn, and animal com. Animal corn grows on the toes, but vegetable corn grows in rows. Animal corn is very painful, and comes from wearing tight boots. I pity the poor farmer who has animal com. Acorns are very cunning to play with, for They are like cups and saucers, and are very nice to play with; * When I was in the country last summer we used to play house with them, and tea party.”— Youth’s Companion.

A Happy Prospect.

“Dear Amanda, it’s all right. We’ll get married before Christmas,” said Mr. Ernest Heidelsnapper. “But you told me last night,” said Miss Amanda Pschoddy, “that you Were too poor to marry. ” “O, yes, I know, Amanda, dear,” he said, seizing her gentle hand; “bnt it will soon be all right, and then we will be wedded, and our hearts will beat as one, and we will go to the beautiful Canadian land and live in a chateau, and have horses, and servants, and—” “How good yon are!” sighed Amanda, laying her head upon his shoulder. “But I thought yon were so very poor, Ernest?” “So I am, dearest,” he said, “bnt I’ve been appointed cashier of the Sixteenth National Bank and will begin business to-morrow. ” — X. T. Truth:

Cause and Effect.

“O, ma! that must be the drunkard’s home like we read about in the story books. All the windows are broken. ” “Hush, child! the people who live here are very respectable, bnt some of theft near neighbors get out of patience sometimes, and throw bricks, and bootjacks, and things. ” “Why, what for, ma?” "The” eldest son is learning to play the flute.”— Philadelphia Call. Boilxd tripe, frifed to a very light brown in butter and then sprinkled with salt and pepper, is said to taste precisely like mushrooms.

From the Talmud.

The ass complains of the cold even in July. A single light answers as well for a hundred men as for one. Teach my tongue to say “I do not know. ” Thv friend has a friend, and thy friend’s friend has a friend; be discreet. If a word spoken in its time is worth one piece of mdney, . silence in its time is worth two. The soldiers fight and the kings are heroes. Make but one sale and vofi are called merchant. If the fox is king, bow before him. The rivalry of scholars advances science. The world is saved by the breath of school children. Even to rebuild the temple the schools must not be closed. Blessed is the son who has studied with his father, and blessed the father who has instructed his son. Rabbi Eleazor said, “Who gives charity in secret is greater than Moses. ” Rabbah said, “Men shoul’d be careful lest they cause women to weep, for God' counts their tears. ” In cases of charity, where both men and women claim relief, the latter should be first assisted; if there should not be enough for both, men should cheerfully relinquish their claims. Rabbah said, “When one stands at the judgment seat of G,od, these questions are asked: Hast thou been honest in all thy dealings? Hast thou set aside a portion of thy time for the study of the law? Hast thou observed the first commandment? Hast thou in trouble still hoped and believed in God? Hast thou spoken wisely?”

Why He Went.

“I thought you told me you did not intend going to the circus, Mr. Jarphly?” remarked Mr. Goshorn, interrogatively. “Well, you see, I had to,” replied Mr. Jarphly, apologetically. “I grew tired of those things years ago. They’ve lost all interest to me. They’ve got to be wearisome and monotonous; but the children’s fond of them, just like you and I used to be when we were children, and my little boy wanted to go, and I didn’t have the heart to disappoint him. ” : “But 1 didn’t see any little boy with you.” “No, poor little fellow, he was taken sick, and I thought I’d go, so I could tell him how everything looked and not disappoint him altogether, he’d set such stcre by it, you see.” —Pittsburgh ■ Chronicle.

Ought Not to Complain.

“What hab yer named yer boy?” asked an acquaintance of edd Nelson. “I’se named him airter myse’f. ” “Wall, I alius makes it er rule neber ter name er chile airter er libin’ pusson.” “W’y so?” “ ’Case, yer see,_the libin’ pusson mdut turn out bad. He mout be hung. It is hard on er boy when his namesake am hung.” “Dat’s a sack,” replied Nelson, “an’ es I hader thought er dat I wouldn’ er named de boy airter myse’f, fur it am hard on er boy when his namesake is hung, but in dis heah case it wouldn’ be no harder on de boy den it w’oul’ on de namesake. If I could stan’ hit he eugh tenter complain.” Arkansaw Traveler. '

A Sensible Girl.

“I offer you myself, my life, mv all,” said a widower at the feet of a lovely lass. “Will you be mine?” “I must ask you one question first. Did you give your first wife four new bonnets a year and eight new dresses ?” “Yes, I gave her six new bonnets and ten new dresses every year for the last six years she lived. ” “Then I cannot marry vou.” “And why?” “Because then you haven’t money enough left to buy me more than one bonnet and one dress for three years. ” —Bouton Budget.

Houses for Brazil.

The business of making wooden houses in the United States for custom sale is stimulated by a brisk demand for these products in Brazil. Several large shipments have been made to Bio Janerio, and th%y were all sold soon after their arrival. Fifteen hundred of them have already been erected in the new city of La Plata, the new capital of the province of Buenos Ayres.—Chicago Herald. *' Many newspaper men will appreciate this remark of the late Mrs. Clemmer, •who once fulfilled a contract to write a column of matter a day for three years: “It was a toilsome time, but it cured me utterly of the mental perversity that waits for the inspiration of creative moods to do what is necessary to be done.” There is, indeed, nothing quite so effective in bringing on a “mood” as the impelling spur of absolute necessity.—The Current.

DR. JOHN BULL’S Smi’sTiicSnf FOR THE CURE OF FEVERandACUE Or CHILLS and FEVER, AND ALL MALARIAL DISEASES The proprietor of thii oolebrated medicine justly claims for it a superiority over all remedies ever offered to the publie for the SAFE, CERTAIN, SPEEDY and PERMANENT oure of Ague and Fevor, or Chills and Fever, whether of short or long standing. He refers to the entire Western and Southern country to boar him testimony to the truth of tho assertion that in no ease whatever will it ftil to oure if the directions are striotly followed and carried out. In a great many eases a single dose has been sufficient for a cure, and whole families have been oured by a single bottle, with a perfeot restoration of the general health. It is, however, prudent, ana in every case more certain to oure, if its use is continued in smaller doses for a week or two after the disease has been cheoked, more especially in diffioolt and long-standing cases. Usually this medioine will not require any aid to keep the bowels in good order. Should the patient, however, reauire a cathartio medicine, after having taken three or four doses of the Tonio, a single dose of NULL'S VEGETABLE FAMILY PILLS will bo sufficient.
