TORNADOES. Fclentiflrally Aoconnted for, and Some Remote Causes that produce Pain* Ail Results Explained. The following synopsis of a lecture de* Irrered by Dr. Horace R. Hamilton be* fore the New York Society for the promo tion of science, contains so much that is timely and important that it can be read 'with both interest and profit; There is probably no subject of modern times that has caused and is causing great er attention than the origin of tornadoes. iScientists have studied it for the benefit of humanity; men have Investigated it for tbs welfare of their families. It has been a vexed subject long considered, and through all this investuration the cyclone has swept across the land carrying destruction to scientists as well as to the innocent dwell ers in its track. One thing, however, is certain; the cause of the cyclone must be sought far away from the whirling body of wind itself. Its results are powerful; Us cause must also be powerful. Lit us therefore consider a few facts. First, the appearance of a cyclone is invariably preceded by dark spots upon the face of tne sun. These spots, indicating a dis turbed condition of the solar regions, nec essarily affect the atmosphere of our earth. An unusual generation of heat in one part of the atmosphere is certain to cause a par- tial vacuum in another portion. Air must rush in to fill this vacuum. Hence the dis turbances—hence the cyclone. This theory finds additional confirmation in the fact that tornadoes come during the day and uot at night. The dark spots upon the surface of the sun, whatever they may be, seem to cause great commotion in the at mosphere of the world, and it is almost certain that the extremely wet weather of the present season can be accounted for on precisely this basis. Is it reasonable to suppose tnat the marvelons effect of the sun upon vegetation and life in general shall be less than upon the atmosphere itself through whicn its rays come? The cause is remote, hut the effect is here. After describing some of the terrible ef fects of the cyclone, the speaker went on to say;— This rule finds its application in nearly every department of life An operator is in San Francisco—the click of the instru- menl manipulated by his fingers, in New York. The president makes a slight stroke of the pen in his study at the White House, aud the whole nation is aroused by the act. Au uneasiness and disgust with everything in life, commonly called home sickness, is felt by many people, when the cause is to be found m the distant borne thousands of miles away. An uncertain pain may be felt in the head. It is repeat ed in other parts of the body. The appe tite departs and all energy is gone. Is the cause necessarily to be found in the head? The next day the feeling increases. There are added symptoms. They continue aud become more aggravated. The slight pains in the head increase to agonies. The nau sea becomes chronic. The heart grows irregular, aud the breathing uncertain. All these effects have a definite cause; aud. after years of deep experience upon this subject, I do not hesitate to say that this cause is to be found in some derangement of the kidneys or liver far away from that portion of the body in which these effects appear. But oue may say, I have uo paiu wh .tever in my kidneys or liver. Very true. Neither have we any evidence that there Is a tornado on the surface of the sun; but it is none the less certain that the tornado is here, and it is none the less cer tain that these great organa of the body are the cause of the trouble although there may be no pain in their vicinity. I know wnereof I speak, for 1 have passed through this very experience my. self. Nearly ten years ago, I was the pic ture of health, weighing more than 200 pounds, and as strong and healthy as any man 1 ever knew. When 1 felt the symp toms I have above described, they caused me annoyance, uot only by reason of their aggravating nature, but because 1 never teit any pain before. Other doctors told me I was troubled with malaria, and 1 treated myself accordingly. I did not be lieve, however, that malaria could show such aggravated symptoms. It never oc curred to me that analysis would help solve the trouble, as I did not presume my dif ficulty was located m that portion of the b idy. But 1 continued to grow worse. I had a faint sensation at the pit of my stomach nearly every day. 1 felt a great desire to eat, and yet I loathed food. 1 was constantly tired and still I could not sleep. My brain waa unusually active, but 1 could not think connectedly. My existence was a living misery. I contin ued in this couditiou for nearly a year; never free from pain, never lor a moment happy. Such au existence is far worse than death, for which 1 confess 1 earnestly longed. It was while suffering thus that a friend advised me to make a final attempt to re cover my health. 1 sneered inwardly at his suggestion, but I waa too weak to make any resis'ance. He furnished me with a remedy, simple yet palatable aud withm two days I observed a slight change for the better. This awakened my courage. 1 felt that I would not die at that time, 1 continued the use of the remedy, taking It m accordance with directions, until I be came not only restored to my former health and strength, but of greater vigor than I have before known. This couditiou has continued up to the present time, and I believe I sboulu have died as miserably as thousands of other meu have died and are dying every day had it not been for the simple yet wonderful power of War ner’s Safe Cure, the remedy I employed. The lecturer then described his means of restoration more in detail, aud conclu ded as follows: My complete recovery has caused me to investigate the subject more carefully,and 1 believe I have discovered the key to most ill health of our modern civi.ization. 1 am fully confident that four-fifths of the diseases which affl ct humanity might be avoided were the kidneys and liver kept in perfect condition. Were it possible to control the action of the sun, cyclones could undoubtedly be averted. That, however, is oue ot the things that cannot be. But 1 rejoice to say that it is possible to control the kidneys aud liver, to render their action wholly normal, and their ef fect upon the system that of purifiers rather than poisoners. That this end haa been accomplished largely by means of the re medy 1 have named 1 do not have a doubt and I feel it my duty to make this open declaration for the enlightenment of the profeaiion and for the benefit ot suffering humanity in all parts ot the world. Well, sir, where do you work, Sam uel?” inquired a Chicago Judge of a colored prisouer, yesterday, ‘T work in a bank, sah.” “What under the sun ia your position in a bank?” “I’se a teller sab.” “What bank is this you speak of, aud what are your duties as teller?” “It’s Al Hankin’s ferry bank, au' I tells the gam'lers that they can find any sort o’ game they’s spilin’ fur, sah.” The farmers are the founders of civ ilization. AGRICULTURE. Sheariwo Evergreen Trees.—We have looked in vain for some abandon ment of the custom, to be seen in so many places,of shearing evergreen trees into unnatural shapes. Now, no one objects to a tree out here or there, if the majority are left to develop the nat ural beauties nature gave them. Bnt that any man in his senses should so toy with his plants as to have every tree and shrub out into a sort of cauliflower bunch, is beyond our comprehension. Yet it is no uncommon sight to see pla ces of some acres in extent, with hun dreds of trees and shrubs thereon all clipped and out in a fashion,which even the lovers of topiary art would laugh at with good reason, beoause utterly barren of any expression whatever. There is perhaps more excuse for the street-tree trimmer than those who have the beautiful lawn specimens operated on. There is the good feeling that numberless poor men want work in the winter, and tbe cutting off of the street trees keep them employed. And then our desire to set our fait-growing trees that will make shade quick, leads us to .orget that there are often forest trees of the largest size that soon grow tall to give the shade desired, and then they are out low in order to make them branch out again. The idea is good, perhaps, but it does not work. The tree grows faster than ever, and its last state is worse than the first Most people who have been tempted nnder this idea to out back the tops of the treee, have found whin too late that the practiee was an erroneous one, and that the win le tree bad to go Such trimmed trees, whether of deciduous or evergreen are very subject to injury from extremes of frost and cold, and much more liable to d.^ease or the attacks of insects than unuimmed trees. It is much better to have trees of slower growth, which con tinue low-headed to maturity thau to tiitle with trees iu tbe baeking way. At any rate we oannot see why lawn trees should be out as they aie; and if any one can give any reason for the faith in this practice, we should like to hear from them. A gentlemen, evidently an enthusiast on the merits of the Hols teins,has been testing them in regard to their butter prodnotion. He gives a statement of the yield of twelve cows for seven days, iu winch one gave 20 lbs., three 19ttu., and a fraction, two 18J tbs., and the lowest 141b. 11$ < zn Tue daily yield of five oowu was also tested; the greatest yi Id being Bibs. 4 ozs., the lowest 2 tbs. 8$ ozs. He thinks a list of Hol- stelns can be made up that will rival the best Jersey 1st, and that it can be shown that the Holsteins are the vei y best for milk, butter or beef, or for all combined J. G. Goodhue,of Orange county,Yt, has successfully treated potato bugs by the following msthod: “The first thing after the beetle makes his earliest ap pearance, destroy it so far as you can before it Has deposited many eggs on your young potatoes. The next thing, at hoe ng time, turn over the tops so as to expose the orang.t-eolored cluster of eggs deposited on the under-sida of the leaf; pick off these leaves and bum them; iu this way thousands of beetles will fail to appear, aud what beetles ap pear, in spite ot your efforts, may easily be managed by gathering them into pans or pails and destroying them.” Stock of all Kinds.—First, see that the working Uoibusa^u oxeu are in good order and well ted, groomed, have a plentiful supp y of pure water, are de- cen’ly hou.-ea and bedded, that they may bu bettei prepared to endure the hard labor they will be daily or 11 d on to perform uow, when the crops are being put in, and afterwards,in cultivat ing the same during the intensely hot and exhausting weather. Blinkers.—The Lancet stoutly oppo ses the practice of putting biinuers on horses. It says: “It seems to us thaj they are useless, ugly, aud, to some ex tent, injurious to the eyesight. The most beautiful feature of the hors is the eye. If it were not ’hid from our gaze it would serve to deuote sickness, pain, or pleasure. M*uy a time would the driver spare the whip ou seeing the ani mal s eye. Electricity for Balking —And now it is anuouneod that a new cure has been found for balking in horses. It is simple, being the application of electri city. The electric batte y is placed in the carnage and wires attached to the horse’s bit and crupper. When the horse balks the eleotrio current Is turned on aud the horse is cured. Professor Shelton, of the Kansas State Agricultural College, holds that tbe cultivation of such crops as broom- oorn, hemp, flax, and perhaps oastor- Ileans, which furnish but little, if any, stock feed, will ultimately lead to sen- ous consequences ia the losa of fertili ty sustained by the lands so cultivated. Hoeing, and the frequent stirring of the surface of the soil, are important iu dry weather. Those parts of the garden that are most constantly onl ivated show the best results. Corn will stand almost any drought if the soil around the hill« be frequently stirred. Cut worms are often destructive to young cabbage plants. A paper wrap ped around tbe stem, extending two in ches above the surface, will prevent their work. Better still, if practicable; plant the cabbage patch in some place uot infected by these pest*. To secure hens for profitable laying, cross a large and a small breed together. It is better if the male be of the small breed. If breeding is continued trom the same foals a subsequent year, it is then desirable to get the male from a large breed, and thus alternate each year. It is said by careful men that it is most profitable to grow for beef those animals which can be turned off at two years (11. Greater age will give weight but at a much increased coat. To be a good farmer requires shrewd- ness, tael, energy and great persever ance; thesejcombined with extensive in formation on agricultural subjects, will go far toward making a thriving, indus trious farmer. Dairymbn should discourage all at tempts lor adulterating dairy products ith lir.1, tall jw, grease, and the like, as the sale of such staff,under any name is working great loss and injury to legi timate busiuess. DOMESTIC. Changing Habits,—To go away from home and change home habits is not always the nicest thing to do, and when it is done, the process ought to be as gentle and gradaal as possible. In the case of children this is doubly necessa ry, because the need does not at once appear. The seashore almost 'always excites and invigorates a child so that we do not estimate the effect the change may have on him. He spends the day in Hie son, undergoes the exertion of a surf bath, exchanges his simple lunch fer a heavy dinner, and seems to pros per. Suddenly he has the headache, is feverish and has to be nursed through some annoying illness, which he would have escaped if the change in nis hab its had been managed with a little dis cretion. This is, howeyer, even more true of women than of children, because they take less exercise. The heavy 1 - o’clock dinner and the lopg nap in a hot, dose room, give many a headache, aud rob many a woman of the rigor she ought to have gained by her vacation. Altar Meals, Torture.
