USEFUL KNOWLEDGE.
Iluuiovnl of Uvy.l'Jitty. - j
According to au English journal, the
difficulty of removing hard putty from
a window sash oan be obviateoL with
great readiness by simply applying a
piece of heated.metal, such a^a solder
ing-iron or dther f similar , iraalement.
When heated.(but. not red-hbtvthe iron
is to be passed slowly over the pu-ty,
thereby rendering the latter so'soft .that,
it will part from the wood without >ny
trouble._ > V*

Ileds of Hulphur.in Iceland?
The discovery of immense beds of
sulphur in Iceland bids fair to make'a
material change in the trade of that
'substance, the Italian,, mines, according
to reoent accounts, having become to a
oonsiderable^degreo exhausted. An Eng
lishman, Mr. Looker, lias purohased
six square miles in ths'isgi^; adjoin
ing Lake Myvatn, in which.'
tains of almost solid sulpha,
low color of which is visible" _

Hats. V
To banish rats plant asphodel near
the barn or stable where they are, or
put some in their holes. Bats have
such an aversion to this"plant that they
will quit the premises'; whero.it io. If
they are in drains or' in oellarB* scatter
sulphate of iron (copperas)' in their
runs. The oopperas should not be dis
solved. It is our best and cheapest
disinfectant. The sulphuric acid burns
their feot, and they, leave .-in. a short
time without .dying. This ^illj be ap
preciated by every housekeeper .that
has to endure the stench of a dead rat.
Range of Torpedoes.
From recentfexperiments 'conducted
by an English torpedo committee
against'the iron hull Ob er on, with the
view of ascertaining the maximum dis
tance within which the engines of an
onemy's vessel might be 'rendered use
less, if not the ship herself destroyed,
by the explosion of a submarine tor
pedo, it appears that the hnll of an
iron-clad is practically safe from dan
ger at a range or 100 feet from a 500
pound charge of gun cotton, exploded
in forty-eight feet of water, bnt that
her engines are liablo to derangement
at that distance.
Cure tor Dlptherla.
The ravages of diptheria in Aus
tralia have been so extensive within the
last, few years that the government of
fered a large reward for any certain
mothod of Cure; and among other re
sponses to this was one by Mr. Great
bond, who at first kept his method a
secret, but afterward communicated it
freely to tho public. It is simply the
use of sulphuric acid, of which four
drops aro diluted in three-fourths of a
tumbler of water to bo administered to
a grown person and a 'smaller dose to
children, at intervals* not specified.
The result is said to be a coagulation of
the diptheritio membrane, and its
ready removal by coughing. It is as
sorted that where the" case thus treated
has not advanced to a nearly fatal ter
mination the patient recovered in al
most everv instance.
Weights or Boys and Girls.
Upon --the average, ;boys at birth
weigh a little more and girls a little
less than seven pounds. For the first
twelve years the two sexes oontinne
nearly equal in weight, but beyond that
age the boys acquire a decided prepon
derance. ' Young men of twenty average
one hnndred and thirty-five pounds,
while the young women of twenty aver
age one hundred and ten pounds each.
Men reaoh their heaviest weight at
about forty years of age, whon their av
erage weight will be about one hun
dred nnd forty pounds, but women
slowly inorease in weight until fifty years
of ago, when their average weight will
bo one hundred and thirty. Taking the
men and women 'together, thitr weight
at full growth will then Average from
one hundred and eight to one hundred
nnd fifty; and women from eighty to
one hundred and thirty. The average
woight of humanity all over the . world,
taking the ages and conditions, work
ingmen and women, and gentleman and
ladies without occupation, black and
white, boys, girls and babies, is very
nearly one hundred pounds, avoirdu
pois weight.
Mystery of the l>akea.
Lake Erie is only 60 or 70 feet deep ;
but Lake Ontario, which is 502 feet
deep, is 230 feet below the tide level of
tho ocean, or as low as mostparts of the
Gulf of St. Lawrence; and the bot
toms of Lakes Huron. Michigan and
Superior, although the surface is not
much higher, aro all, from their vast
depths, on a level with the bottom of
Ontario. Now, as the discharge through
the Biver Detroit, after allowing for
the probable portion carried off by
evaporation, does not appear by any
monns equal to the quantity of water
which tho three upper lakes receive, it
has been conjectured that a subterra
nean river may rnn from Lake Superior,
by the Huron, to Lake Ontario. This
conjecture 4s not improbable, and ac
count.'! for the singular fact that salmon
and herring are canght in all the lakes
oommunioationg with the St. Lawrence,
but no others. As the falls of Niagara
must have always existed, it wonld puz
zle tho naturalist to say how these fish
got into tho upper lakes without some
subterranean river ; moreover, any peri
odical obstruction of the river would
furnish a not improbable solution of the
mysterious flux and reflux of the lakes.
ArtlAolnl H?de? Meat*.
A trite* in LTllnstration, referring
lo tho Bois de Vinoennos, says : " They
aro pi no in g th'iB year, as they did last
year, a great number of artificial nests
in the dumps and thiokets of this wood.
Were yon aware that there existed in
Paris workmen skillful enough to fabri
cate nests so admirably constructed as
to tako in (in more than ono sonso) the
very birds themaolvos? They make
thepi for the thievish and quarrelsome
sparrow, for the titmouse with the azure'
tail, for tho warblor, for the kingflshor
(there are large artificial lakes in the
Bois do Vinoennos), and for the ohaf
finoh. The ouokoo, the blackbird, and
tho magpie himself aro not forgotten.
Snoh beautiful nests 1 Large and
small apartments for feathered families
to bo lot, with immediate possession,
without taking a lease, or with a lease
of three, six, or nine years, at pleasure."
Those, by tho way, aro tho usual tormir
of leases in France. The writer goes
on to state that tbroa thousand of these
nests have been tout up. The plant
believe, "was first suggested by a pro
fesebr of the Jovdtnabss^Plantes, with
a viey? - of^enoouraging\the"(ninHiplioay
tion of birds that nyiy holm#.deatroy
worms and insects injurious to vegeta

Infanticide or Oplttmr,
One of the boat informed physicians
in England, Dri'Mitchell, employed in
the public health service, some time
ago published a mass of testimony ob
tained by him from numerous medical
witnesses, showing the almost universal
rosort to opium in order to benumb and
.stupefy children, even those of the ten
dorest age; a very common preparation
of this sort being a so-called cordial
made of treaole and opium. So general,
it appears, ib tho use of this nuxture,
that customers go to the apctheocrieB,
and, without any hesitation, ask ?or a
dbao of * it,14 to givo to the baby next
day, as they are going out to r/alk."
Chemists frankly admit that they
make and sell these opium decoctions
by the barrel and hogsheads full.'. This
baleful usage prevails not only in the
colliery d i?t riot b, but also in the manu
facturing and non-manufaoturing dis
tricts; and it is stated by ono physiolan
that/ in the .Nottingham, Derby and
.Leicester districts tho habit of adminis
tering opium to infants usually begins
when the ohild is three or four weeks
old. And still another witness asserts
that tho opium cordial is given on the
very day of birth, being in readiness for
that event. The inevitable renn It of
this terrible custom is, of oourse, that
great numbers of infants perish, either
eaddenly from an overdose, or, as more
commonly happens, by slow, painful,
insidious disease. Compared, there
fore, with this form of infanticide, the
kind practiced by the Chinese may be
said to be meroiful.
Complimentary.
In o recent address ex-Senator Doo-.
little remarked: " Whatever may be
said in criticism of'Mr. Johnson's pub
lic course, all parties agree that the
white house was never more gracefully
kept and presided over, than by his
daughter, Mrs. Patterson?a perfect la
dy, a model of a republican mistress of
the white honso. Let me toll a foot
which hsB never been published, but
which I had from the lady's own lips.
Just as she was about to leave, at the
ond of Mr. Johnson's administration,
the steward of the house took an inven
tory, and found that not ono article of
furniture was missing or broken, not a
sheet, towel or napkin was lost, and
the house was in perfect order from top
to bottom. Sho told me another fact,
which I know the wives and danghters
of the farmers of Wisconsin will be glad
to hear. When they went into the
whito houso she purchased two excel
lent cows. From the milk of these
oows she made all the butter, used all
the or euro, and made all the ioe-oream
used in thepresident's family during
his term. When sho went home, she
shipped these cows to Tennessee Is it
any wonder, ladies, that Mrs. Patterson
received the first premium on batter at
their fair, lost fall?"
Tho Wondrous " Green Vault."
'. A correspondent of the Chicago Jour
nal, speaking of the art collections of
Dresden, says : " For wealth of con
tents', .tho 'Green Vault' excels any
and all the rest of tho collections. The
' Green Vault' consists of several vault
ed apartments on the ground floor of
tho museum, each of which is devoted
to some one kind of valuable object.
In one are Florentine and other rro*a
ics ; in another gold and silver plate
which adorned the banquets ot the
Saxon kings ; in another vessels formed
of half preoious stones, among whioh
arc two goblets, valued at CO, 000 each.
In the last are found articles the most
valuable of all: one, called the court
of the great inogul, consists of 138
figures of pure gold and enamelled, and
cost $58,000 ; and finally comes a glass
ooee filled with most preoious suits of
costly jewels, supphires, emeralds, ru
bies, pearls, and, in still greater profu
sion, diamonds. One hardly knows
whioh to bo astonished at most, the
wonderful riohness of the collection or
the wonderful folly of the princes who,
from taxes no doubt levied upon their
subjeots, would collect such an amonnt
of wealth to He for years as dead
capital."
A Steam Older-Mill.
The Detroit Tribune in recording the
observations of the Michigan orchard
committee says: At Battle Greek the
committee haa the pleasure of examin
ing a new cider-mill and press. The
grinding of the apple?, pressin?, and
Sumping are all done by steam power,
'he apples are ground very rapidly,
and the "oheeses" are put up in one
quarter of the time required in the old
mode, stout oambrio being used instead
of straw in making up the "oheeses,"
so that the juice comes out pretty free
from pulp. Two men will lay up a
good-sized "cheese," in fifteen minutes.
The press is then applied, and is self
working, and by the time another
"oheese" is ready to be pressed the
first "cheese" is ready to be removed.
Tho cider flows into a oistern benoath
the floor, from whioh it is forced into a
large tank above ; but before it goes in
to the tank it passes through a char
coal filter, whioh rende.ru it pure and
dear. By extending iron pipes from
this tank to a side traok whioh has been
laid noar tho mill, barrels are filled
aboaid oars. A barrel of oidrr is given
for ton bashels of apples; the price for
making wo did not-loarn. >- 3
Hedgo Growing.
An Illinois farmers' olub, located
whero a good deal of hedgo grows and
a great deal "of experimental farming j
has boon done, is reported as thus orys
talizing the experience of tho hedge
growers of. tho j club in a resolution:
"That in our opinion,'to bo successful
in making a good and lasting hedge
fence, we should set tho plants eight
inohes apart, oultivate well1 for three
years, or until the oanes are at least
oho inoh in diameter, then plash, leav
ing the oanos standing abovo on an an
gle of forty degrees." Laying close to
tho ground and twisting or interweav
ing tho plauts, were both oondomnod
as unsuccessful. Observation has taught
that the method indicated above is tho
cheapest and surest way to secure an
effloiont hedge of osago orange in tho
shortest time.
WnisKY and thb Weed.? Intelligent I
.physiologists and* pat&Ologlsts admit |
that all so-called medicines containing
alcohol?whether they emanate from
the regular pharmacopoeia and are called
tinctures, or from the empirical rum
mills, and are labelled '.' tonics "?arc
essentially aangero?B and destructive.
The only way in whioh drunkenness can
be arrested is by restoring the integrity
of the nerves (especially the nerves of
tastes and the great sympathetic nerve),
and purifying the animal?? fluids; ana
these objects are more certainly and
swiftly accomplished by tho use of Dr.
Walker's Vinegar Bitters than by any
other means. Henoer probably, the.
opinions now so generally expressed,
that this pure preparation ib a Boveroign
remedy for .the evils referred to. Should
it be clearly ascertained that Vin?gar
Bitters is not only a Bpeoiflo for indiges
tion, liver disease, nervouBn?nu, ce-rufu
Ioub uloers and eruptions, and a host of
other disorders, but also for inebriety,
thousands will rise up and call the dis
coverer blessed.
France has at last taken tho initia
tive in a i economy that is likely to lead
to important results to agriculture. The
municipal council of Paris has adopted
a plan for cleansing the Seine, by which
the sewage deposited in the river will bo
diverted to the plains of Genevilliers.
Should the plan prove as profitable as
is expected, it will not be long before
the sewers of all large cities will bo
mode to yield a handsome revenue.

The Prettiest Woman In NrwYorlt,
Miss K??, woUknown in onr fashionable society
for her diatinque appearance and beautiful complex

plexion as she is charming in manners. This arti

that bo " considered it a remarkable article, but It
wouldn't answer for him to endorse a remedy in
Erlnt." Here's consistency, i But wo didn't' kick

VINEGAR BITTERS
Vt. J.' Walker's Crtiiftjrnia Vin

preparation, mado cbiofly from tho na

tho Sierra NovridftmourTflWtirrof Califor
nia, tho medicinal properties of which
are extracted therefrom wUbput^ho uso.
of Alcohol. Tho question 'is almost
daily asked. "What is the cause1 Of* tho "
unparalleled success of-?iNB?hAR Bit
ters?" Ohr answer is, that thoy roraovo
tho cause of diseaso, and tho,pntiont rer
covers bis health. Thoy ate tho great
blood purifier and a lifo^gMng principle,
a porfect Renovator- and .Inxigorator
of. tho system. Never before -in tho
history of tho world has a incdirJIno boon
compounded posKcasing ? tho remarkable
qualities of Vinegar Bitters in healing tho
sick of every diseaso mim is heir to.. They
are a gontlo Purgative as woll as a Tonic,
relieving Congestion or--Inflammation of
tho Livor and Visceral Organs, in Bilious
Diseases.
The properties of Dr. 'walker's
VlNESAR ]3ittbR8 are Aperient, Diaphoretic,
Carminative, Nutritions, Laxative. Diuretic,
Sedarivo, Counter-irritant, Sudorific, Altera
tive, and Anti-Bilious.
Grateful Thousands proclaim Vin*
kg ar Bitters the most wonderful "In
vigorant that ever sustained'- tho sinking
syetom.
No Person can tako theso Bittora
according to directions, and remain long
unwoll, provided their bones are not de
stroyed by mineral poison or other
means, and vital organs wasted beyond
repair.
15ilions, Remittent''and Inter*
mittent.-Fovers, which are bo preva-,
lent in tho valloys of our great rivora
throughout tbe United States, especially
thoso of tho Mississippi, Ohio, Missouri,
Illinois, Tonnesseo, Cumberland, Arkan
sas, Red, Colorado,Brazos,Rio Grande,
Pearl, Alabama, Mobile, Savannah, Ro
anoke, James, and inany othors, with
their vast tributaries, throughout our
entire country during the Summer and
Autumn, and remarkably so during sea
sons of unusual boat and dryness, aro
invariably accompanied by extensive de
rangements of the stomach and liver,
and other abdominal viscera. In their
treatment, a purgativo, oxortlng a pow
erful influence upon theso various or
gan's, is essentially necessary. Thoro
Is no cathartic for tho purposo equal to
Dr. J. Walker's Vinegar Bitters,
as they will speedily romovo tho dark
colored viscid matter with which tho
bowels aro loaded, at tho samo time
stimulating the secretions of tho livor,
and generally restoring tho healthy
functions of tho digestive organs.
Fortify the body against disease
by purifying all its fluids with Vinegar
Bitters. No epidemic can tako hold
of a system thus fore-armed.
Dyspepsia or Indigestion, Head
ache, Pain in tho Shoulders, Coughs,
Tightness of the Chest, Dizziness, Sour
Eructations of tho Stomach, Bad Tasto
in tho Moutb, Bilious Attacks, Palpita
tntion of tho Heart, Inflammation of tho
Lungs, Pain in tho region of tho Kid
neys, and a hundred other painful symp
toms, are tho offsprings of "Dyspepsia.
One bottle will prove a better guaranteo
of its morits than a lengthy advertise
ment. _
Scrofula, or King's Evil, Whito
Swellings, Ulcors, Eryaipolas, Swelled Neok,
Goitro, Scrofulous Inflammations, Indolent
Inflammations, Mercurial Affections, Old
Sores, Eruptions of tho Skin, Soro Eyes, etc.
In those, as in all othor constitutional Dis
eases, "Walker's Vinegar Bitters havo
shown their groat curativo powers in tho
most obstinate and intractable cases.
For Inflammatory and 'Chronic
Rheumatism, Gout, Bilious, Remit
tent and Intermittent Fevers, Diseases of
the Blood, Liver, Kidneys and Bladder,
theso Bitters havo no equal. Such Diseases
aro caused by Vitiated Blood.
Mechanical Diseases.?-Porsonaen
gaged in Paints and Minerals, euch as
Plumbers, Type-Betters} Gold-bontors, and
Miners, as thoy advanco in life, aro subject
to paralysis of tho Bowels. To guard
against this, tako a doso of Waleer's Vin
egar Bitters occasionally.
For Skin Diseases, Eruptions, Tot
tor, Salt-Rhenm, Blotches, Spots, Pimples,
Pustules, Boils, CaVbuucles, Ring-worms,
Scald-head, Soro Eyes, Erysipelas, Itch,
Scurfs, Discolorations of tho Skin, Humors
and Diseases of tho Skin of whatever namo
or nature, aro literally dug up and carried
out of tho system in a short time, by tho use
of thoso Bitters.
Pin, Tape, and other Worms,
lurking in tho svetem of so many thousands,
are effectually destroyed and removed. Nr
system of medicine, no vermifuges, no an
t hehnini tics will free tho system from worms
like theso Bitters.
For Female Complaints, in young
or old, married or single, at tho dawn of wo
manhood, or tho turn of life, thoso Tonio
Bitters display ro decided an' inflaonco that
improvement is soon porcoptibiu.
Cleanse tho Vitiated Blood when
ever you find its impurities bnrating through
tho skin in Pimples, Eruptions, or Sores;
cleanso it when you find 1$ obstruoted and
sluggish in tho veins; cloanso it whon it is
foul; your feelings will tell you whon. Keop
tho blood pure, and tho health of tho 6ystom
will follow.
