TORNADOES. Selentiflcally Accounted flor, ind' Somn Remote Causes that produce Pain fAl Results Explained. The following synopsis of a lectzte de hvered by Dr. Hiorace R. Hamilton be fore the Now 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 le causing great. or attention than the origin of totnadocs. Scientists have studied it for the benefit of humanity; men have investigated it for the welfare of their families. Jt has been a 0 vexed subject long considered,and through all this investigation the cyclone has swept across the land carrying destruction to scientists as well as to the inocent dwell era 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. Jbt us therefore consider a few facts. First, the appearance of a cyclone is Invariably preceded by dark spots upon the tace of the sun. These spots, indicating a dis turbed condition of the solar regions, net 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. Ilenco the dis turbances-honce 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 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 that the marvelous cifect 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 applicatiot' in nearly every department of life An operator is in San Francisco-the click of the instru nient manipuliated by his fingers, in New York. The president mikes a slight stroke of the pen in his steidy at the White House, and the whole nation is aroused by the act. An uneasiness and disgust with everything in life, commonly called home Pickness, 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 tound 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 ationies. The nau sea becomes chronic. The heart grows irregular, and the breathing uncertain. All these effects have a definite cause; and, after years of deep experience upon this subject, J do not hesitate to say that this cause is to be found in some derangemnent of the kidneys or liver far away from that portion of the body in which these cffects anpear. But one may say, I have no pain 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 hiere, and it is none the less cer tain that these great org~ans of the body are the cause of thie trouible althnugh there may be no pain in their vicinity. I know wiuereof 1 speak, for 1 have p~assedi through this very experience my. self. Nearly ten rears ago, I was the ptC ture of health, weimhitur more tihan 200 pounds, and as strong and healthy as any man I ever knew. When I felt the symp. tomis 1 have above described, they caused me annoyance, not only by reason of their aggravating nature, but because I never felt any pain before. Other doctors told me I wa'is tronbled with malaria, and I treated myself accordmigly. I did not be lieve, however, that malaria could show such aggravated symplltomfs. It never oc cuirredl to me that, analysis would help solve the trouble, as 1 did not presume mty di t' iceulty was located in that. portion of the b dy. But I continued to grow wvorse. 1 stomach nearly every day. I felt a great (desire to eat, and yet I loathed food. I was constantly tiredl andi still I could not sleep. My brain wvas unusually active, but I could not think connectedly. My existeiice was a lhving misery. I conitin ued In tis conmdition for nearly a year; never free from pein, nmever for a moment haplpy. Such an existence is far worse than death, for which I confess I earnestly longedt. 1t was while suifermig thus that a frhendi adivisedi me to make a final attempt, to re cover my health. I sneered inwardly at his suggestion, lbut I was to00 weak to make any resistance. lie furnished ine wvithi a remedy,- simptle yet palatablie and withii two days I observed a slight chiange for the better. This awakened my courage, I felt that I would not (lie at that time. I continued the use of the reiiidy,-takinig it in accordance with directions, until I be came not only restored to my lormer health aud strength, but of greater vigor than I have before known. Th'lis condition has contiinued up to thie p~resent time, and I believe I should have (tied as miserably as thousandls of other mn hiavo dhied and are (lying every (lay hiad it not been for the simple yet woniderful power of War ner's hafe Cure, the remedy I emp~loyedi. Thel lecturer then describ~ed hits mecans of restoratIon more in detil, and~ coincli ded as follows: My complete recovery has caused me to investigate the subject more carrfuilly, and I believe I have discovered the key to most ill health of our modern cuvilizatiin. I am fully confident that four-fihs of the dliseases which dfil et humanity might be avoidted were the kidineys and liver kept In perfect condition. Were it possible to control the action of the sun, cyclones could uIndoubtely be avertedl. Trhat, however, is one ot the things t hat cannot be. But I rejoice to say that it is possible to control the kidneys and liver, to rend~er their action wholly normnal, and their ef fec, upon the system that of iurmflers rallier than poisoners. That this end has been accoimpilihedt largely by means of the re. medy I have named I do not have a dloubt and .1 feel it my dluty to make thuis openi declaration for the enhightentnent of the professIon andl for the benefit of suffering humanhty in all parts 01 the world. A recent French process consista in permeating fabrics with a solution of tin. A mixture of zinc powdor and dis solved albumen is first made atid spread over the fabric by a brush, and, after drying, the stuff is passed first through superheated steam, then through a so lution of chloride of tin. In this way, an exceedingly thin layer of tin is spread over the whole side of the fabric, which is thus rondered waterproof and pro tected against ordinary rough usage. The skeleton of the carion crow weighs when dry only twenty-three AGMOULTURF. PRAcJoAL HINTs ON GROWING FiauiT. -If you want large crops of the finest strawberries, plow or spade th ground deep. Keep Ithem well worked with cultivator or hoe, and mulch heavily with straw, hay, leaves, or pine "needles" through the winter and through fruiting season, over the entire surface. If you want more than one crop of fruit from your strawberries, plow or spade up ground betieen the row im mediately after last picking is made,cut off tops, and work among the plants in the row with a fork potato digger, and then scatter thickly among the vines hen manure superphosphato or well de composed barn yard manure, or water them with night slops, or wash water, and keep them well cultivated or hoed until winter sets in. Remember, to yield well next yearthe fruit must make its growth and form its "fruit germs" the season before. To grow small fruit from seed lay the rruit out on thick soft paper and wash it gently and lot it dry, and then rub it Dver, and sow seed in boxes half to two-thirds filled with rich earth and ind an inch of clear sand on top, and in this sow seed, and keep moistoned with water. To grow strawberries under glass,have plants set near the glass and air well on warm days. Don't leave an old strawberry bed that is one mass of matted plants, to bear fruit, but as early in the spring as possible, spade under strips of plants 15 inches wide, and leave strips to fruit 9 to 12 inches wide.Work those out nicely with a fork potato digger, and scatter Dver the ground and among the plants well rotted compost. You will get dou ble the crop of fruit off these rows than you would if left in a matted bed, and too, much finer fruit. If you want to secure a good crop of raspberries or blackberries from a few plants in your garden in time of drouth, sink close to the root, fruit or oyster Dans, with a very small hole in the bot tom and 1111 with water occasionally. If the hole is small a can tilled will last a Jay. The same can be done with a fow sti awberries, and increase crop and size of fruit wonderfuly-especially it wash water is used. If you want to grow fair fruit and good crops of peaches, cherries and plums, got a few gallons of gas tar,tako a long polo, rub the end in tar and then set it on fire and hold it under and among the limbs of the tree, just as the blossoms are fa ling, when dow or rain is on the troo, and follow it up for four or six weeks. Another plan is to mix a spoonful of carbolic acid and one spoon lul of soap in a pall of water and throw through the tree just as blossoms are falling, and once or twice after until fruit gets one-fourth size. Still another plan is to use same amount of korosene oil in the same way. EGYPrIAN CoRN.--A cereal recently introaiuced into Kansas and New Mexi. co, it is said, was originally brought from Southern Russia. The first knowledge we had of its introduction into this country. waa some seed sent to as last season from San Anglos, Cali fornia, - where it Is sometimes called pampas rice. We plintod it as soon as received, and though it grew vigorously suo obtined a good growth for our chi nate, it failed to openi. We were told 5hat it was used in California principally is f00(d for fowl, no mention being made f its use for bread. It is a cereal re icembling very mnuch our common millet lithough wve should think the kornial is somewhat larger. it would undouibted ly L'oustituto a good fced for stock the same ais miilet does, though we have known the latter to be ground like Indianr coin and used for bread, which was said to be nearly as palatable and nutritious i~s that made from cornmeal. If, as is ata teod, it is unaffected by drought, worms and grasshoppors and other pests, and is largely productive, we see no rt aion why it may not constitute a staple of production among farmer. in those states where thre seasons are longer, aind the climuates less rigorous thani in New England. We advise our farmers io umake a trial of it. IIANolKo-BARKETs,-Rodl flower' pots can be convertedt into these pretty bas kets for lawns or pores. Two large pots, of the ton-inch size will make a handsome pair. Goct a small brad-awl cud gimlet of a large size, and a small saw-blade set in a handle; work holes in rows all around the po0ts half ian inch wide (first softening themi by stnkingI over night). Give the surface two coats of stone-colorea paint, then sprinkle with sand ini which mix diamond dust or fronting; or paint white, and dust with marble or stonecutter's sand, mix ed with frosting; this will give a sur face like marble or stone, as may be desired. WATERMELON SYRUP. -A Southern n ri ter says that those who have never eat en it have no0 idea how delicious and pleasant flavored watermelon syrup) i ; it is next to imap~lo syrup anid far superior to the sorghum mulaisses, having none of its stroiig taste. Press tihe juice out of the melons an any way convenicint; it will be about like maple sap or sweet cider; then it is to bo boiled in about the samie waly as maple sap is miade into syrup, 1N saving wvatermeloni seedri be carn ful to select melons from ieolds in wvhich only one variety ha been grown. Mel ens of different varieties readily mix. arid, although the meolons may appar enrtly be all that is desired, the appear anrce gives no inrdicatioin of thre lacts. Seed selected fromi mixed varieties airo worthless if planters expet melons to equal those from which the seed is tak en hreni the crop is garthered the sue ceeding year. A YAT~rI county correspondent of the New York Tribunec reports that a quino.> bublh grafted on commion thorn and wvithrout being cultivate dI has borne e g ular crops of fruit for over forty years.

In painting the leaves a nice delicate to".ch should be had in order to give a natural effect. Get' tube paints, such as are used for oil paintings. After painting the leaves lay them aside to dry. Do not use them for ten or twelve hours at least. A tube each of Dhrome yellow, rose madder, clear white and Prussian blue will be all the paints required to produce a lovely bouquet. Mix the yellow and blue to obtain green for painting the leaves. With a little practice in mixing paints, they can be made as beautiful as wax. rhere are several ways to use feather lowers besides clustering them. A wreath, a cross, an anchor and birds are often made and placed in boxes with a rich velvet background and (ine glass in front, bordered with a frame-work of velvet, or wood exquisitely decorated with water-color pictures, making an elegant parlor ornament.

AUTUMN LEAVES. -To preserve the brilliant colors of autue-n leaves, their atoms should be dipped in melted yel low beeswax. The loaves should be well dried. By piercing the leaf near the stem with thread wire they can be woven on coarser wire, or on large cord, into any description of garland or de sign. It is of the first importance to select the most beautiful and brightly tinted leaves. Those with odd, bright spots and unnatural marks are consid ered the choicest. Those leave4, too, which are touched with ripeness and delicately shaded in color from the up per and broader part to the point, are very desirable to intersperse with the gaudier ones. Being well dried and pressed, they can be perfectly prepared for adorning a room by quickly ironing eah' leaf with a moderately heated smoothing iron drawn quickly oyer a piece of beeswax.
