TORNADOES.
EelenUflcallj Accounted for, aud Some
Remote Causes that produce Tula*
ful Results Explained.
The following synopsis of a lecture de
livered by Dr. Horace It. 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
Itimes that has caused and is causing great-
ier attention than the origin of tornadoes.
Scientists have studied it for the benefit ol
humanity; men have investigated it for the
(welfare of their families. It baa been a
.vexed subject long considered, and through
tail this investigation the cyclone has swept
lacrossthe 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;
Its cause must also be powerful. L;t us
therefore consider a few facts. First, the
appearance of a cyclone is invariably
preceded by dark spots upon the face ol
the 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
not at night. The dark spots upon the
surface of the sun, whatever they may oe,
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 marvelous effect of the
sun upon vegetation and life in general
shall be less than upon the atmosphere
itself through which its rays come? The
cause is remote, but 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
ment 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. An uneasiness and disgust with
everything in life, commonly called home
sickness, is felt by many people, when the
cause is to be found in the distant home
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 and
become more aggravated. The slight pains
in the head increase to agonies. The nau
sea becomes chronic. The heart grows
irregular, and 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 one may say, I have no pain
whiteverinmy 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 organs 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 teu years ago, I was the pic
ture of health, weii-hine more than 200
pounds, and as strong and healthy as any
man 1 ever knew. When I felt the symp-
toms 1 have above described, tbey caused
me annoyance, not only by reason of their
aggravating nature, but because I never
felt any pain before. Other doctors told
me f was troubled with malaria, and I
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 uiy dif
ficulty was located m that portion of the
bxly. But 1 continued to grow worse. I
had a faint sensation at the pit of my
stomach nearly every day. I felt a great
desire to eat, and yet I loathed food. I
was constantly tired and still I could not
sleep. My brain was unusually active,
but I could not think connectedly. My
existence was a living misery. I contin
ued in this condition for nearly a year;
never free from pain, never for a moment
t> ippy. Buck an existence is far worse
than death, for which I confess I earnestly
longed.
It was while suffering thus that a friend
advised me to make a final attempt to re
cover my health. I sneered inwardly at
his suggestion, but I was too weak to make
any resis'ance. He furnished me with a
remedy, simple yet palatable and within
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
in accordance wtih directions, until I be
came not only restored to my former health
aud strength, but of greater vigor than 1
have before knowu. This condltiou has
continued up to the present time, and I
believe I should have died as miserably
as thousands of other men have died and
are dying every day had it not been for
the simple yet wonderful power of War-
uer’s Safe Cure, the remedy I employed.
The lecturer then described bis means
of restoration more in detail, and conclu
ded as follows:
My complete recovery has caused me to
investigate the subject more carefully,and
I believe I have discovered the key to
most ill health of our modem civilization.
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
oould undoubtedly be averted. That,
however, is one of the things that cannot
be. But I 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 has 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
profession and for the benefit of suffering
humanity in all parts of the world.

AGRICULTURE.
What Lands Nked Drainage?—AU
lands that contain more water than is
needed by the crops growing upon
them. If you intend to raise corn or
wheat the land will need more draining
than if intended for grass. Even grass
lands need not be very wet, as, if too
wet, the growth of aquatic plants
and grasses take the place of the cul
tivated grasses and rains the hay and
pastures.
Loose, porous soils,underlaid by sand
or grevel, are drained by nature; but
all land that is underlaid by ofay, rock
or other impervious material needs
draining.
What is to be gained by underdrain-
age? The surface of the water in the
soil is lowered. The roots of cereals
and grasses may penetrate as far as to
the surface of the water, but never into
it. It is necessary to draw the water off
to such a depth as will give the roots of
growing crops plenty of room to reach
downward for that nourishment that is
necessary to their growth. If the water
is only one foot from the amonnt of soil
from which to gather nourishment, with
the disadvantage of having their feet
wet by capillary attraction. Only aqua
tic plants grow well with their feet in
the water.
The lowering the water below the
surface prevants a large amount of
evaporation, and its effects in cording
tbe soil. The water being removed,
air and warmth are admitted to the
soil.
Drained lands are, for this reason,
ready for planting at least two weeks
earlier in die spring. The growth of
crops is quickened through the summer
by the increased temperature of tbe
soil, which amounts to several degrees,
and the injurious effects of early frosts
are prevented iu the same manner. Crops
are, therefore,given an increased period
in which to make their growth of at
least two weeks. This is certainly a very
important gain.
About Sweet Peas.—What is more
beautiful or more fragrant than the old-
fashioned Sweet Peas! How rarely we
see them of late. It is true that the
same thing—the intense summer heat—
which makes onr season of “green peas'
rather short, also interferes with the
sweet pea. Those who wonid have sweet
peas should plant them early, and plant
them deep. Three inches of covering
is none too much, and they should be
put iu as early as the soil is in a oondi
tion to work. Of oonrae they must have
something to climb upon. Pea-brush,
such as is given to the ordinary garden
peas, is perhaps the best,but in the ab
sence of this, strings, wires,or whatever
will allow the plants to climb for about
three feet must be provided. The old-
fashioned Sweet Pea has, in the bonds
of European florists, given a number of
flue varieties, the names of whioh will
be found in the catalogues of the seeds
men, Some of these have beautiinl
colors, but none are more fragrant than
th« old sort. Sweet peas are excellent
flowers for cutting, as they have long
stems, and they retain their beauty for
very many days. To have sweet peas
at their best, plant early aud plant
deep.
Bare Places in Lawns.—By “lawn”
we mean any piece of grass kept solely
for ornamental purposes. It may be
mer ly a flout yard, or on large places
it may include many acres. There may
from some cause show thin and poor
places here and there. These may be
mended by scvuiui methods. If the
bare places sre large, the surface may
be worked over with a sharp rake to
take oat dead stems and roots,and then,
alter tert.liziug,be sown with grass seed
of a kind similar to the rest of the lawn.
If the patches are small, the quickest
way to mend them is to lay turf. In
England a method is in use not only for
restoring bare places in established
lawns, but also lor starting new ones,
called “inoculating.” The ground be
ing well prepared, bits of good turf
(sods) about three inches square are in
serted a foot apart each way. These
will take root and spread, soon covering
the whole surface. In making or mend
ing a lawn, recollect that the work is to
last tor years, and that a good supply
of fertilizing material will be a good in
vestment.
When meal is fed plain to cows they
often pass it with but half digestion, or
in this shape it is apt to pass into the
intestines without being returned with
the cud to be remastioited. This cre
ates a loss, and to prevent it mix the
feed with wet out hay, straw, fodder or
other coarse feed. It is said tiiat meal
fed dry, if not mixed with rough feed,
will be better masticated than when it
is fed wet.
Cows with short teats are a nuisance
in the dairy. All men shirk milking
them, which causes them to dry up
early and injures the adder. For this
and several other reasons, the owner or
head milker should always select the
hardest and meanest milkers in the herd
for his own work. He may then rest as
sured that every cow in the herd is
well handled.
In the cultivation of the kitchen gar
den, long, straight rows of vegetables
sufficiently far apart to allow the culti
vator or horse-hoe to be worked be
tween them, will greatly lighten the
hand work.
Experiments are being made in rice
culture on high ground in Florida,with'

out using fertilizers.
The beet remedy for the sting of a
bee, wasp or hornet is liquid ammonia,
and anything will equal its dilation in

by uuxquitoes.
Charcoal pulverised and mixed with
water is highly recommended for re
lieving cattlesaffering from any derange
ment of the stomach, such as bioat. ho-
ven, etc.
If yon wish to raise a rant, stint tbe
yonng animal’s supply of food below

Farmers who are careful t« see that
the collars their horses wear are a pro
per fit save the animals much unneces
sary torture.
More than one farmer claims that a
little timothy or pure gra a in tne clover
greatly assists it to core quickly. Clover
alone is too fall of jaioe, and its thick
stems dry out slowly.
DOMESTIC.
How to Split Paper.—Get a piece of
plate glass and place on it a sheet of
paper; then let the latter be thoronghly
soaked. With care and a little dexter
ity the sheet can be split 4)y the top
surface being removed. But the best
plan is to paste a piece of doth or
strong paper to each side of the sheet
to be split. When dry, violently and
withont hesitation pull the two pieces
assander, when part of the sheet will
be found to have adhered, to one and
part to the other. Soften the paste in
water and the pieces can be easily re
moved from the doth. The process is
generally demonstrated as a matter of
onriosity, yet It can be utilized in var-
rions ways. If we want to paste in a
tcrap-book a newspaper article printed
on both sides of the paper, and possess
only one copy, it is very convenient to
know how to detach one side from the
other. Tbe paper, when split, as may
be imagined, is more transparent than
it was before being subjected to the
operation, and the printing ink is some
what duller: otherwise the two pieces
present the appearance of tbe original
if again brought together.
Att«r Meals, Torture.
Such is the lot of the dyspeptic. Prevention,
where Indigestion has not assumed the ohronio
pha-e, and athcfrougti cure where It has. Is possi
ble of a'talnment by those who resort to Hos
tetler’s Stomach B.tiers, a remedy of established
reputation, botanic origin and rare purity. Heart
burn, flatulence, pain In the abdomen after eating,
and a sinking- sensation In that region between
meals, are entirely obviated by tnls fine correc
tive. Nansea, billons symptoms and constipation
are also entirely removed by it Lack of vigor,
loss of flesh and want of appetite are usually
troubles which contribute to the discomfort of suf-
feres from tndlg-stlon.bnt for these,as well as other
concomitants of tbe malady, Hostetler’s Stomach
Bitters is a recognized specific. While It regu
lates It strengthens the sys’em. Fever and ague,
rheumatism and nervous ailments are effectually
relieved by it, and it is an incomparable sustaining
cordial for Infirm persons of advanced years or
wean constitution.
Impressions op Leaves and Flow-
res.—Procure a small bottle of olive
oil, a camel’s-hair brush or a pieoe of
rag, half a dozen sheets of white note
paper, and a good old fashioned tallow
oandle with a large wick. Take the
leaves yon wish to perform upon and
pnt them under a pres-s or in a large
book, so as to get them with a fairly
even surface. Then take a large sheet
of copying paper and oil it completely
by nibbing it with yonr rag, taking
'are not to put or more oil than neces
sary. When this soiled paper is fairly
dry bold it over the oandle so that the
flame just touches it, moving it about
to prevent scorching. Do this until a
fine layer of carbon, equally black
every where,is deposited. When tUe light
of the oandle oan just be seen through
the carbon lay the paper on a table
with tbe black side uppermost. Then
place the lesf between a pieoe of the
black paper out to the proper size and
another sheet of paper. After rnubmg
the upper sheet carefully, place the leaf
between two clean sheets of paper. By
again nibbing the upper sheet a com •
plete impression of the leaf, with even
the most minute veins marked in black,
will be produced upon the sheet of pa
per. If this is allowed to dry it will not
smear, and will always retain its fresh
ness. Care should be taken not to al
low the leaf to be ohipped while on any
of the sheets of paper.

Is it true that somo birds and insects
disappear from districts which Asiatic
cholera is about to invade? That of it
self is an interesting question for the
investigation of naturalists. Of course
an adequate solution carries with it an
explanatior of tbe temperature of the
special locality as well as tne climatic
conditions generally,and the nature and
state of the food upon which the lower
orders of animate life subsist. A sim
ple assertion means nothing; bnt a late
number of the Italia del Popola whioh
cites a great many localities from which
birds and insects departed just before
the advent of cholera is well worth*stu-
dying.

A recent French process consists in
permeating fabrics with a solution of
tin. A mixture of zinc powder and dis
solved albumen is first made and spread
over the fabric by a brush, aud, after
drying, the stuff is passed first through
superheated steam, then through a so
lution of chloride of tiu. In this way,
an exceedingly thin layer of tin is spread
over the whole side of the fabric, which
is thus rendered waterproof, und pro
tected against ordinary rough usage.

Three Particular Points.
Point the First. Brown’s Iron Bitters is not an intoxicating’ com
pound. < It is a tonic medicine, not a drink. It is a skillfully compounded
preparation made to restore strength and health; not a beverage to be soli
in bar-rooms and taverns.
. . ? oint /^•SrW.—BROWN’s Iron Bitters is free from everythini
injurious. The most delicate ladies and the most enfeebled infante ma\
use it with perfect safety and with great advantage. • While it is powerfif
m its remedial agency, it is gendeinits operation, restoring wasted strengtk
and imparting robust health in the most efficient manner.
P ? in *J he Brown's Iron Bitters is made by the Browx
Chemical Company of Baltimore, a long-established house, whose reputa
tion is well-known to the business world and the general community
There is no nsk in buying such a medicine. q 7
