A Remedy for Diarrinea.
On the authority of Dr, Benjamin Clarke,
hot milk is given as a remedy for diaarkene,
and is largely used in the West Indies. The
milk need not be boiled, but should betaken
hot as possible without discomfort. Many
persons are unaware of the virtues of hot
milk, but it is a most excellent remedy in
many oases of dyspepsia, aiding in no way
to make a person "bilious," as some are apt
to think, and can often be taken hot by thoee
who are unable to take it in any other way.
When used au a dietetio remedy, milk should
be made the chief article of diet, using grain
preparations, and. avoiding vegetable& fruits
and meats. tot milk is also as we have of-
ten said, an excellent foodl&

To See ba Telephone.
This is an age of invention. A French-
man., M, Ceurtonne, announces that he will
shortly make public a discovery he has
made which will enable people to use their
eyes inthe same way that the telephone adds
to the ordinary power° of the ear—that is,
as the telephone enables us to hear sounds
from a long distance, the telephote will en-
able us to see far-off objects. M. Courtonne
maintains that his invention will permit of
the transmission on a wire of luminous
vibrations, through any kind of obstacle,
for thousands of mule. The user of the
telephote, it is ageumed, oan see whatever
is visible from the instrument at the other
end of the wire au easily as if he were on the
spot. There is nothing improbable in this.
It sound waves can be transmitted over a
wire, there is no reason, except the want of
knowledge, why light waves cannot also be
transmitted. The latter vibratione are very
much shorter than the fernier, bub in one
case, as in the other, it is merely vibration
which has to be treated. Possibly the time
will come when, so far as seeing objects is
concerned, we shall be able to make esetour
of Europe without going out of our own
houses. •

Stammering has hitherto been supposed to

es reoently acquired by the surgeons connect-

to call this view more or less in question. In
oerrying out certain operation e to cure
children of deafness, it was found that in
several successful cases the operators had also
simultaneously cured the patients of stani-
nearing. This feet attracted epeoial attens
tion and study; and the outcome has been
the firm conviction that iste.mmering, in the

Mrs. J. J. Murphy, of Birmingham, Ala.,
died a few days agoefrom a disease whioh
bad been puzzling physicians for eighb years.
About eight years ago the woman began to
complain of pain in the stomach. She
slowly but graduallygrew worse until she
died. A &eon physicians had treated her
bub Lone of them were able to say whet was
the matter. For two years past she has
constantly suffered the most intenee pain,
and she said she felt something growing in
in her stomach. The doctors could feel a
bard substance in her stomach, but could
not determine what it was. The woman
was too weak for an operation.
When Mrs. Murphy died an autopsy was
made, and in her stomach the dootore found
two pounds of wood. For twenty years
Mr& Murphy.had been addicted to the habit
of dipping snuff. She used small wooded
brushes for snuff-dippirg, and would often
bite ofi and swallow small pieces of the
brush. The email particles of wood had
formed a solid mass in her stomach, and the
block weighed just two pounds. The phy-
sicians say this was the cause of her death.
lt is the only case of the kind on record.
High Speed on Railroads.
There are many things connected with
high speeds on railways which tax the in-
genuity of locomotive engineers to tho ut-
most. The lines have to be made strong
enough to withstand the heavy blows of the
loeomotive, or the other portions of the run-
ning plant are lightln comparison. A rail-
way train at sixty miles an hour may be
compared to a huge projectile and subject to
the same Imes. The momentum is the pro-
duct of the weight of the train, !multiplied
by the tquare of tbe velocity in feet per
seooud ; and if we allow a train of 12,./ tone,
travelling at a speed of sixty miles an hour,
then the work required to bring it te
atandetill would be 14400 foot tons exerted
through one minute, or nearly 1,000 horse
power, which gives some idea of its destruc-
tive force if, unhappily, it ehould COMO into
action ; and yet this terrific power is so en-
tirely under command that the strength of a
ohild turning the small handle of the vacuum
brake can bring the train to a stand in a few
seconds, —Chambers' Journal.

In his edemas at the opening of the Fronde
Exposition Prealdent Carnot stated that the
first inclustrial exhibition ever held was in
Parisi= 1798, aud it was aridly coeftned to
native products. In fad, the only gold
medal offered was one for the manufectarer
who should "strike the deadliest blow at
English industry." The same principle was
followed at another French exhibition in
1847, a proposal to admit foreien competitors
being summarily rejected. lErtmained fon

bition in 1851, and there have sieoe been six-.

Accordingito the New York Sun, the
American Postmaster- General recently pre
seated a number of Western merchants with
free tickets from Chloego to Philadelphia
and return, with the object of getting them
to buy from his big Philadelphia store.
They made purchases to a considerable
amount, enough to leave a goodly mergin of
profit over the price of the tickets, but on
their return they stopped at Naw York and
spent three times as nutolt as they had spent
in Philadelphia, which was not exactly the
idea the great merchant had in his head
when he gave away the tickets.
