A Prevention of Consumption.
A eontem orar tells of • physician's ex-
perience, in certain hospital, withatiente
who coughed excessively. 1[e was convine•
ed that they were hacking much more than
wee necessary Or safe. By promising re-
wards and punishments, he irzditeed them
to hold. their breath when.tompted to cough.

When, porscits are tempted to cough let then
draw a full breath, hold it until it warms
and easesevery air-cell and benefit will soon
follow from thisrecess. The nitro

which is thus occasionally retained acts as

At the same time a suitable medicine will
aid nature it .her effort to reeuperate. It is .

early stay 'i1. Every cold can almost be

cured, if ttended to in its incipiency., If
there is aI y fear that a throat or lung
trouble has been contrasted, no time should
be lost in consulthq a good physician.. It
is remarkable how a thorough exainination,
and a welcome conclusion that there is ne-
cessarily no fatal trouble, will even save
from consumption some persons 'who have
become chronic invalids through a morbid
fear.
Rules for Living Well
Tee Caterer, in an article on " Good' Liv-
ing" considered from a culinary rather than
a moral point of view, sums up the matter
in the followingsensible way : .
If living wll consists •in living neither
luxuriously nor expensively, in what, then
lies the secret ? And how many men of
moderate Moans take advantage of it ? The
question is not a difficult one to answer.
We will put the answer in the shape of a
few short rules.
1. Buy judgment.
d ment.
g
2 Buy the best, for the bestis always the
cheapest.
& Let your economy regulate the quanti-
ty, not the duality.
4. Letour cook be a 000k,and one that
knows how to utilize what is ow thrown to
the dogs, or otherwise wasted.
5. Study simplicity in the number of the
dishes, and variety in the character of the
meals.
6. Let the housewife be watchful enough
to trace the leaks that are liable to spring
in every larder.
7. Let the mistress be indeed the head of
her own household and of her own kitchen.
Oysters as Food.
It is all nonsense about a steady diet on
oysters being injurious to the system. Many
persons think so, however. It may be true
that oysters (10 not produce the most pleas-
ant results when cooked in a rich style and
eaten just before going to bed. When taken
with wine late*night, of course, if there
is any bad efnext day the oysters are
blamed for it. Oysters have excellent medi-
cinal qualities, are nutritious and when
plainly cooked, or eaten raw aro very whole-
some, especially in esses of indigestion. Oys-
tors never produce indigestion, and that is
• something that cannot be said of any other
1 alimentary substance. During my ex eri-
- al once I have found in several cases where
oysters have been taken daily they have
done much toward curing the patient. In-
valids have discovered in oysters the requir-
ed ailment, besides being far the most agree-
able
bee-
able food to to e. ' Raw oysters, too, are
said to be ver sod for hoarseness, al-
ou have yn ear tested their merits
th gh I t oon
that point. It is my belief that the oyster
is the most healthful article of food known
to man.

How to Prevent Diphtheria.
The first and most essential agents for
preventing contagion are, cleanliness, pure
air, and sunlig�ht, These are nature's great
antiseptics. For the first great essential,
cleanliness, our local Boards of Health seem
to have but little regard. If they would
spend one hall the time in cleaning the back
alleys that they consume in magnifying the
few isolated cases of diphtheria, the original
invasion of an epidemic might often be
averted. " Prevention is better than cure,"
but after the epidemic has once begun; the
question naturally arises ; how shall we
limit its ravages ? The first means to be
thought of is isolation. The patient ought,
if possible, to be placed in an upper front
room that is light and airy, and all but
adult members of the family excludes]. No
children should be permitted to be exposed
to the contagion. All unnecessary furniture
should be removed, and, as far as possible
proper germicides should be freely used.
The following rules for disinfection, as
given in Catchall's Ivey Notes, aro very
simple and perhaps as good as any :
POR Alit OF SICK ROOM.
adr.
Potassium permanganate, 1. . , Oxalic
acid, 1 dr. i mix and moisten with twice the
quantity (by bulk) of water ; in two hours
add a small quantity more of water. It
will emit ozone freely enough for a large
room, and it is an active disinfectant.
For drinking water, add suffcientperman-
ganate of . potassium to render it slightly
light, pinkish in strong g , then filter.
For water -closets, drains, and,, water -pipes;
Hot water 2.: gallons.
Copperas4 pounds.
• Carbolic acid 4 pounds.
Especit4apeful in typhoid fever, dysen-
tery, etc., ae' `ell.
For drains, ditches, and sewers, disinfect
with chloride of lime. One pound is suffici-
ent for one thousand gallons of running sew-
erage.
For washing clothing :
'Sulphate of zhio, , . , .... 21 ounces.
Carbolic acid 1 ounce.
Hot water 1 gallon.
Soak the clothes twelve hours., then wash,.
Heavy clothing, blankets, etc., to be dis-
infeeted, should be opened and .exposed..
Close the room as tightly as possible • sE
all cracks, and paste'. paper overth,e key
holes. Place sulphur in iron pans ; set on
bricks in wash.ttibs containing a little water..
Ignite it by aid of hot coals, or a spoonful
of alcohol poured over it and ignited with a
match, Beaten from the room, and keep it
closed for twenty-four hours ; then open
windows wide, and air it thoroughly. Per
a room ten feat square, use two pounds of
sulphur; and for larger ones a proportionate
quantity,

Mnio. Blavats1 , the famous leader of

faith. She is, however, fond of sweetapeate,
fig paste and almonds. The one thing she
dreads above all othere is corpulence, and
she takes every means to keep her weight
from increasing.

When one's. clothing becomes damp from
exposure osure to the weather, it is best to change
it immediately. Rub the skin with a clzy,
hard towel until the body is in a glow all

the garments, exercise moderately so that
enough heat may generate in the system to
dry tine skin and clothing without a shill.
General Rules for Letter Writing.
. Always commence a letter with the most
important subject that yoir desire to com-
municate; and write all tltatyou desire to
write concerning it, before you proceed to
any other subject.
Leave a good margin at the left edge of the
paper, and try to „keep it straight,
Paragraph each _ subject upon which you
write, as that willfinake it easier for the re-
newer to react the letter quickly,
Strive not to write unmeaning plu"tses,
suoh as "So you see," or "You know," but
use good, expressive words, avoiding many
adjectives, which will make a letter ponder.
ous, yet poor.
Lavater tells us,
"Learn the value of a ,man's words and
expressions and you 'know him. Each man
has a measure efhis own for everything. This
he offers you inadvertently in his words. He
who has a superlative for everything, want
a measure for the great or small."
Always boar in mind that written words
are a very different affair from spoken words,
as the manner which attends the speech alters
their precise meaning. Many a sentence can
be said with a laugh, that takesawayitssting,
while if onlythe baro wordswill a -

LoNno.Y's COAL Sti rLie-The quantity

110,000 tons weekly. In the height of the

five railway lines at the rate of about 900
tons per hour day and night.
OIL ON TROUBLED WATERS, -Ten steam
ers, including all the cattle steamers of one
of the greet ocean liues sailing from New
York, are regularly provided with a supply
of oil to "pour upon troubled waters" in
case of need. The oil, when about to be
used, is placed in punctured canvas bags

are ashamed of what you have written.
And frequently, merely because the request
to destroy the letter has been made, the
reader will consider it of importance enough
to preserve.
When you write to sonic one asking infors
motion, with whom you are not in regular
correspondence, be sure to enclose a stamp,
and it is not amiss to enclose a stamped
envelope directed to yourself.
Use good paper, and envelopes that fit it
neatly, and fold the paper exactly straight.
Sealing wax is now in universal use, and
few ladies close their letters without it, us-
ing either a seal with their initials, or mono-
gram, or a heraldic device. Gentlemen use
plain red or green, or brown wax. Ladies
may use any fancy colored wax they prefer.
When there are several of the same sur-
name in a fancily, the wives rarely have
their letters addressed with their own Chris-
tian names, but by those of their husbands,
thus : Mrs. John Jones, Mrs. William Jones,
Mrs. Sam Jones And frequently they
are
addressed in the family circle as Mrs. John,
Mrs. William, Mrs. Sato.
Whenever a doubt is in the mind concern-
ing the rank or title of the person addressed,
it is best to err on the safest side, and give
higher rank, as deep offence has been taken
by addressing a major as a captain.
The familiar style of closing a letter is
"Ever thine," or t` Yours truly," or "Yours
devotedly."
The business style is "Yours respectfully."
The friendly style is "Yours cordially,"
or " Yours faithfully."
The old style, " Your humble servant," or
"Your most obedieut servant," is obselete.
If desirous of being very respectful, you may
write : "I have the honor to be yours most
respectfully." •
Many sticklers for etiquette in writing
letters think that the name of the person
addressed, should always be mentioned at
the close of a letter. Thus : " I am, my
dear Mary, yours most faithfully, John
Jones."
But that is as the writer prefers, and not
obligatory.
Few persons can write as well as they can
converse, for the latter act is spontaneous,
while the former is constrained ; but therein
lios the secret of good letter writing -i. e.,
the more naturally you write, the better
will your letter road.

any particular delight in that paragraph
known as the notice, and that is the man
whose name it contains, and he smiles in a
sort of delirium of bliss. ss. Nov, when the
editor goes out to buy he does not, after
making his purchases, ask that $2 worth
of articles be thrown in. The grocer would
kick the man out of th.c store who habitually
asked to have a polled of sugar thrown in
for every quarter of a pound. of pepper he
puchased. The hardware Man would be
aghast if he was compelled to throw in a
pound of nails foe every ten cents, worth of
putty he sold. The dry goods man would

Maria Abigail Simpkins happened to pur-

business is that the large advertisers do tot
ask for the extra, the complimentary para-
graph being merely given as an act of cour-
tesy for their large trade in printers' ink,
while the man who spends $1 a month has
his feelings wounded if he does. not receive
a notice worth $2,50 in hard earth every
time he favors the paper with his custom."

A little four-year-old, chubby -faced boy
sat edenching his fingers around tt silver

Methodist Episcopal Church in Tyrone,
Sunday afternoon, and later reluctantly
surrencdered it to the lady who collected the
contributions to the Church funds, saying
afterwards : "T didn't want to give it to
Mrs. 13 : I wanted to give it to the Lord."
" Gran'ma," said a boy of nine years,

replied his grandmother. "You'll soon

expect to." "And when I die, gran'ma, can
I be buried side of you ?" "Yes, dear,"
said she, as her heart warmed toward the
little one, whom she folded closer in her
arms. "Gran'ma," softly whispered the
little rascal, "„imine ten cents."
An amusing incident•oceurred at a Christ-
mas tree at oue of the colored churches in
Elberton, Ga. "As but few of the members
coaid read or write, they selected a colored
damsel who had " been to school" to write
the naives on the presents, which she readily
consented to do. When the presents were
distributed and the names called out, the
assembly was greatly surprised to find that
all the handsomest and most valuable pre-
sents had on them the name of the girl that
did the writing. An indignation meeting
was hastily held, and a redistribution of the
presents ordered immediately.
AN ADVANCE IN WEATHER PREDICTIONS.
-Lieut. Powell of the U. S. Signal Service
has given some account of the projected
weather service of the Union Pacific Rail-
road. There will be thirty-three stations
in all. Predictions will bo issued twice a
day as to the probable weather twenty-four
and forty-eight hours ahead. This will give
railway officials sufficient time to take all
necessary precautions before starting the
morning and evening trains. It is intended
to snake the bulletins very specific in nature,
so that the exact conditions over different
divisions may be understood, and the cor-
responding difficulties met and overcome..
VALUABLE AoCTI-EOLOGICAL DISCOVERIES.
-silt. J. 'tV. Walker reports some valuable
archmological discoveries upon the south
side of Pine Mountain, Georgia. Upon the
sides of the mountain, some 200 feet above
the famous Corundum Mine, he finds evi-
dences of the site whore the ancient inhabi-
tants of that section fashioned their cooking
utensils, Many of those utensils are but
half finished, and are yet in place upon the
cliff: This "find" is very instructive, as it
is another proof of the manner in which
these vessels were formed. Stone imple-
ments were used largely in this work, the
vessel being nearly completed before final
detachment from the rock.
