Sjwdeww Intelligenz Fishes in Winter. We have heard of toads which have been imprisoned in a solid rock for cen? turies and which were found alive when their abiding place was cleft open. This reminds me of things I have observ? ed about certain fishes in Winter and I think will be interesting to the young folks. A large number of fishes, some of them living in deep ponds, brooks, or out in the silent nooks of the sea, will re? main for four, five, or even six months in the same position without eating or bo much as moving fin or tail. In the Government Fish Hatchery un? der the management of Mr. Wilmont, I had much opportunity to Btudy certain fishes in Winter, for they could be clear ly^seen through the glass sides of the tanks. In one tank, about a third of the way up from the bottom, were half a doz? en German carp, all facing the direction from which the water flowed. I noticed their positions about Christmas and saw them again, twice in January and two or three times in March, and in all that time not one of them had changed their positions or moved fin or tail. Mr. Willmont told me this was quite usual among the fishes. He permitted me to raise the cover of the tank and poke a couple of them with my slick j and each one made a slow, lazy movement, ar.d re? lapsed into salines?. Just above the carp, in the same tank, Was an eel sbout three feet long. When I first saw it in December it was curved like a perfect 8, and all through the Winter it preserved that shape without, as far as Mr. Will? mott knew, once moving. Put "a: frog into a tank at the beginning of Winter, then place a small piece of wood in the tank -T the frog. will-, get upon the wood, wit^his eyes, looking ^straight up,- and never so much aa move until the weather begins to get warm in the Spring; he will then begin to Jump about and look for something to eat; But the strangest case of hibernation that I know has been related to me by Dr. Ferguson, the Pathologist of New York Hospital. In one of the small tanks belonging to the hospital museum a carp of a particular description had been placed. One very cold night the water where the fish was kept was frozen through and the fish imbedded in it. The care-taker took the ice from the vessel and placed it on top of an ash barrel where rubbish was put away, till one day the hot Spring edn melted the ice down to the place where the fish was frozen. Some attaches of the hospital then was surprised to notice a fish wig? gling in a piece of ice. The carp had survived his imprisonment, passed the period of hibernation, and resumed his old activity.?Harper's Young People Turn Cooking People Upside Dowm Mayor's Office, Fbedericksbctrg, Va., Sept., 12.?Messrs. Editors: The Sun of the 11th instant contained a "spe? cial" from Pittsburg, Pa., which stated that a party was choked to death by a piece of meat lodging in his throat, and, as I know of a very* simple' remedy, which has always proved successful whenever tried, I desire to make the same known through the columns of your widely circulated journal. Some two years ago a death from choking was re? ported in the New York World, and -I wrote a short article for that paper, giv? ing the remedy, and requested that any one who had tried it would write me. In a few weeks I received .a letter from a grateful mother who had saved the life of her little daughter when almost gone. I have known of several instances of children that were badly choked being relieved at once, and, one instance, a bean in a child's nose was removed by the eame meanB. The remedy is simply this: To reverse the position of the body by turning the head down and the feet up at once as soon as a case of choking occurs. I saw a man once badly choked, who must have died but for knowing this remedy, but he rushed to a sofa near a window, and, placing his hands on the floor, with his head down and his feet elevated, in the window, he was instantly relieved. I Will thank any who may try this remedy to kindly write me the results and to publish the same for the benefit of the public, for I have never known it to fail in a single instance. A. P. BOWS, Mayor. ,? As a measure to suppress the oleo? margarine trade, the internal revenue tax imposed on the product in 1887 has been a marked failure. Receipts from this source were 40 per cent larger in the last fiscal year than iu 1890, showing a great expansion of production. It :s the opinion of the Government officers that the product is steadily winning its way into public favor, not in the disguise of butter, but for just what it is. ? The Alliance farmers of Kansas have not taken the advice that was given to repudiate their mortgage indebtedness but are paying it up as fast as they can get the money for their crops. The sta? tistics recently collected on the.subject are encouraging to all holders of farm mortgages, and pleasing , to everybody who believes in the honesty and honor of the farmers of the country. It is. a sound policy that the Kansas farmers are pursuing in this respect, and it will redound to their advantage at once and hereafter. ? "There are one hundred thousand pickpockets in London, and each one of them knows an American the moment he sees them," said Barrett Seaton, a po? lice sergeant attached to the famous Scotland Yard Detective headquarters, when at the Palmer House yesterday. "The rendezvous of the thief-trainers and their pupils are the dark thoroughfares of St. Giles and Whitechapel and along the wharves of the Thames. They are there by the thousands, women and girls, as well as men and boys. They are well organized, have societies and a contin? gent fund. When one of their number gets into our hands thi ^um is drawn upon to help the culprit out. Some of the best legal talent in London is some? times called upon to defend one of the gang. It is a shame that such a condition of affairs exists, but we cannot help it."? Chicago Tribune.

Laat November a Missouri man went to Mexico on a three months' trip. Ih Je.nuary he was supposed to have been killed, bnt was only a prisoner to bri? gands. He returned recently to find that his wife had turned over a new leaf in the marriage service^ and that another man occupied his seat in the chimney corner. Did he go to work and slaughter the false wife and new husband. Not much. He walked in and said : "Well, old gal, how is things ?" "Putty good, Bill," said the double married woman, not taken aback great "Which do you prefer, the old or the ; new love VI She hesitated for an instant, and then skid: '?I don't like to hurt your feelings?but -but-" "Oh, spit it out 1 Don't mind my feel ings or the other ohiip'a.

The last family feud reported from Kentucky grew out of a dispute over a watermelon patch. The result was two men being killed and one mortally woun? ded, and the feud will probably be kept up by future generations of the Kendall and Jarvis families. One of the men killed was county coroner, and of course some one else had to hold the inquests. ? Chares Stites, of Newark, N. J., had an encounter with a cat that he will not soon forget. He was walking between two piles of lumber when his attention was attracted by an ugly growl. He scarcely had time to turn to see whence it came before a cat sprang from beneath the boards and planted its teeth .in the calf of bis leg. His flesh was further torn by his efforts to shake the animal off, and finally, at the risk of having his hands bitten, he seized it around the neck and had to choke it into insensibil? ity before the vicions brute gave up the fight. Even then he had to remove its fangs from his legs by main-force.?New Orleans Picayuiie: ' s ? Dr. L. B. Clifton, the scientist, told his friends something yesterday that astonished them.

T)rV Clifton counted 3,000 of them on'an old five dollar bill. He said the money parasite is an acarus, and cloaely related to the spider family. Its appear? ance is by no means handsome.

March--April--May Are months when Ayer's Sarsaparilla proves especially beneficial. The free use of animal food during winter, while living in over-heated, ili-ventilated rooms, and taking insufficient out-door exercise, tends to load the blood with Imparities, which manifest themselves In liver complaint, bilious disturbances, that tired feeling, eruption*, and various other dis? orders. Ayer's Sarsaparilla, being a powerful and highly-conccntrnted alterative, is the most effective and economical spring medicine ever prepared. Take it yourself and tfivo it to your children. "For several years, la the spring months, I need to bo troubled with a drowsy, tired feeling, and a dull pain In the small of my back, so bnd, at times, as to prevent my being able to walk, tlio least tudden motion musing me sovcro distress. Frequently, boils and rashes would break out on various parts of tho body. 7?y the advice of friends and my family physician, I began the use of Ayer's Sortaparllla and con? tinued It till tho poison in my blood was thoroughly eradicated." ? Luther W. English, Montgomery City, Mo. " I have uecd Ayor's Sarsaparilla as a remedy for the various diseases common to the spring time, and also as a tonic for the system.
