The "transfusion" process, it is
reported, has been revivod in Vienna,

cess in cholera casos. The blood of
healthy young persons is infused
into the veins of tho patients to the
extent of about twenty ounces, and
tho effect, it is said, is often instan?
taneous relief.

A physician at Cincinnati reports
a discovery that dusting a patient fre?
quently with lycopodium will not

but will prevent pitting
!? ROUND DA?OSA. "-Archbishop
Spalding is opposed to tho "roond
dances." Wa find the following in
the Catiioiic Mirror: ? . . ??'?
We are directed by tho Most Rev.
Archbishop to republish and call
special attention to what the Fathers
of th A lo-tfl Pl?harv Council cf Balti?
more, now solemnly approved by the
Holy See, officially declare in their
Pastornl Latter in reference to these
dances, which, under tho guise of
fashionable amusements, are so much
fraught with danger to sound morals
nnd to that delicacy which springs
simultaneously from Christianity,
and is intimately connected with true
Christian faith and sentiment. The
Pastoral Letter was signed by all our
bishops, and it is, therefore, the of?
ficial declaration of tho church in the
United States. Our bishops issue
tho following warning on the snbjeot:
"lu this connection we consider it to
be our duty to warn our people
against those amusements which mny
easily become to them an occasion of
sin, and especially against those fa?
shionable dances, which, as at pre?
sent carried on, ai'c revolting to every
feeling of delicacy and propriety,
and fraught with the greatest danger
to morals. "
A SHARI* TRICK.-The pcoplo of
Prince'ton, Indiana, were regularly
sold the other day. A traveling den?
tist went around and proposed to
insert flnosets of false teeth at a very
low prico and wait six months for
his pay. He only demanded that the
parties should pay him down for
pulling the old stumps. All the old
women went with poor teeth, and all
the young ones with yellow ones,
came to the doctor, had the unsight?
ly grinders, etc., removed, and paid
for the job. The next day the doc?
tor was missinir, and has not been
heard from since. There is weeping
and wailing in Princeton, but, owing
to the peculiar circumstances of the
case, the gnashing of teeth is un?
avoidably postponed.
A little girl seeking celestial infor?
mation, asked her Mother: "Have
angels wings?" TUJ unsuspecting
mamma, full of memories of pictures
and traditions, answered: "Certainly
they have." Straightway young in?
quisitive sprang uer trap: "Then
why did they want a ladder to get
down to Jacob?"
A little boy in Lowell was asked
how many mills make a cent. "Ten,
sir," was the prompt reply. Imme?
diately a bright-faced little girl held
up her hand in token of dissent.
"Well, Miss, what have you to say?"
"Please, sir, ten mills don't make a
cent. Pa says all the mills in town
don't make u cent."
In Salem, Indiana, a man chargod
with murder, but at large on bail,
committed the same crime again
quito openly and under circumstances
of peculiar atrocity, after which ho
remained in town two or throe days
and then departed leisurely without
molestation.
A writer in ono of our scientific
weeklies advocates tho adoption of a
uniform staudard of time the world
over, numbering tho hours from ono
to twenty-four, so that it would be 1
o'clock everywhere at tho same mo?
ment.
Quiet is not always the best thing
in the world. Too much of it at least
tends to stupidity and dullness. Tho
brightest people are the busiest, the
liveliest thoughts and happiest fancies
often come in tho greatest whirl and
bustle in life.
It is stated, upon tho authority oj
those who have heard, that a cat,
when her tail is pinched between a
door, utters the vowels a, e, i, o, u,
with great distinctness. If the in?
jury is prolonged, she gives w and y
also.
Some ono expresses his conviction
I that tho unfortunate author of "The
Dearest Spot on Earth to Me is
Home," etc., was not homeless, as
the critics assort, but, on tho con?
trary, had a largo family of daugh?
ters.
The latest musical sensation in New
