Then is wuaBj at this season of theyear aparfect stampede, from the cities, ^reiybody who caa afibrd- to do so, flees kO aoBeUuHride or moostain side, or takes a trip to Europe, or adopts some other i^ieana of ayoidiog, as far as possible, the hot, sultry, germ-laden air of the cities. This is wise, and in t}ie interest of healtii and long life. Extremes of tem- peratnre, whetiier of heat or cold, are de- pressins: to the vital forces, and prodnctire of special diseases which are highly danger- ous to health. Extreme cold brings pneu- monia, bronchitis, colds and consumption. Hot weather sweOs the mortality list with cholera infantum, dysenteries, fevers, and sun-strokes. During the hottest weeks of the year, the death rate in-the larite cities IB nearly doubled. Certainly then, the an- nual hegira to eaca^ the heat of Jnlyvnd August in the cities, ia a means of life preservation. f But all cannot flee to the mountains, the; breezy sea-shore, or the cool lake-side and thousands of those who remain at home, as well as those who make their escape from the scorched and dusty cities, are unaware of the fact that there is more real danger in the vicious habits of eating, drinking, cloth- ing, and various neglects of personal hy- ^ene, than in the superabundance of radi- ant energy from "Old Sol." Let us study for a moment the physiology of animal heat. The human body is, in some respects, like a furnace. A large part of the food which we eat is burned, much as fuel ia burned in a stove. Chir lungs serve for both draft and chimney, alternately drawing in the oxygen by which the vital fires are made to bum, and pouring out the smoke, iu the form of carbonic-acid gas. Certain elements of the food are particularly efficient in the produc- tion of heat in the body This is specially true of flesh food and fats of all kinds. Fats, when burned in the body, produce more heat than any other food substance. The other day a mvi came into my office, puffing with the heat, and wiping the ierspi- ration from his brow. As he threw himself into a chair, he called for ice- water, and ex- claimed, " Doctor, isn't there any kind of medical treatment that will enable a man to keep cool " "Oh, yes!" said I; "but the trouble is the majority of people treat themselves in a way to keep up such a feverish heat that there is little chance for the doctors to do much for them." " But," said the gentleman, " I am certain that I am doing my best to keep cool, but I feel as though a few days more of this roast- ing weather would make an end of me. I drmk gallons of ice-water, and take huge doses of salts and other cooling medicines; but I feel as though I was in a furnace. Is there not some way to help a man in my condition, without sending Mm to the North Pole, or putting him in an ice-house " " Really, my perspiring friend, it does not seem to me to be so very warm. Per- haps the trouble is with yourself as much as with the weather. Let us see now, what did you eat for breakfast?" " Well, I ate about as usual, a good-sized beefsteak, a bit of bacon, 'Saratoga chips,' and sriddle-cakes with butter and boney." " And you expect to keep cool with such a diet One might as well expect to slow down the fire in the furnace by emptying the kerosene can into it. All that fat in the form of bacon, butter, and lard, is a highly inflammable substance, and it burns in the body with the same facility as in a lamp or stove." "You really think that is true? I am sure I never supposed that what one ate had anything to do with his being overheated." " You have perhaps heard that the Esqui- maux, who live in the extreme North, eat great quantities of blubber and oil. I do not say that it is the most healthful kind of diet for them; but they live in a very cold country, and manage to keep warm. No doubt they have use for a large amount of heat- producing food. Now, suppose our Esquimau, or Lapp, should move to Italy or Egypt, or to Ontario or Indiana, or any ower place in our latitude, durin# the sum- mer season. Would you think it wise for him to continue to use the same food as at home in his snow hut amoni; the icebergs " "Well, really, I never thought of that be- fore but I presume it would be well for him to make some change in his diet 1^ suit the change of climate." " And did it never occur to you that one ought to change his diet with the season of the year, as well as with a change of cli- mate?" " I have never given the subject of dietet- ics much attention. I think I must study it up a Uttle." "Perhaps, also, it never occurred to you that fiedi meat is of all foods inost unsuit- able for a hot- weather diet. This is true not because lean flesh is the best kind of fuel, but because itstimulatestheprocess by which other food substances are burned. It fans the fire, so toi speak. So you see that in your habits of eating, instead of aiding yourself in keeping cool, you have literally been throwing fat i»-the fire, and blowing the fire besides." " I am convinced, doctor, that you are right but what shall a man eat in hot weather? One mint have food of some sort in warm weather as well as cold." "I see yon make the same mistake as many others, is anppesinff that flesh meats are about tiie only foMs of any value. There ia a long list m moat nutriticms gruns and fHlta, ud a few vegetables, which offer a most tempting bill of fare for the sultry week* when ue dag-star rages, as wellasfor thereat of theyear, if one chooeea to adjure less wholesome foods. Add to the products of the vegetable kingdom a liberal supply d milk, and we have a tnll of tun, which, with reasmaUe prudence in exercise â€" «aental and physical,â€" and careful atten- tion to general hygiene, will enable one to keep as cool as a cncumbor, even when the thermameter runs up into the ninetiee, and one's flesh-eating friends are parbmling, not so much with solar heat, as with the flaoies cl fire ol thdr own khidling."

Mme. Blavatsky, the famous leader of the theosophists, is as strict in, her diet as the most rigid observer of the Mohamme- dan faith. She is, however, fond of sweet meats, fig paste and almonds. The one thing she drauls above all others is corpu- lence, and she takes every means to keep her weight from increasing. Great eaters never live long. A vora- cious appetite, so far from being the sign of good health, is a certain indication of dis- ease. Some dyspeptics are always hungry and feel best when eating but as soon as they have finished eating they endure tor- ments so dutressingin tbeir nature as to make the poor victim wish for death. A leading Berlin physician, a Prof. Franzel, has lately advanced the theory that those who must smoke should smoke the cheap brands. He claims to have discover- ed that it is the higher priced tobacco that causes heart disease, so often complained of by excessive smokers. Those who smoke cheap cigars are rarely injured by them. When one's clothing beccmes damp from exposure to the weather, it is best to chuige immediately. Bub the skin with a dry, hard towel until the body is in a glow all over. But if it is impracticable to change the garments, exercise moderately so that enough heat may generate in the system to dry we skin and dothing without a chill. SGIEKTniG ASD (78EFITL. To polish black marble, use oxide of tin. It does not stain. Woollen cloth or felt â€" say, an old felt hat â€" is most suitable as a rubler. A substitute for the hard boxwood which has been heretofore used for loomshnttles is sought by compressing cheaper woods, especially teak, in a powerful hydraulic press. A force of fourteen tons per square inch is applied. Leaves are bleached with a solution of chloride of lime and water, about one table- spoonful to a quart of water. Add a few drops of vinegar, soak for from ten to twenty minutes, then rinse in clear water, and dry between blotting-paper. Good razor-paste Lexigated oxide of tin (prepared putty powder) one ounce, pow- dered oxalic acid quarter of an ounce, pow- dered gum twenty grains make into a stiff paste with water, and evenly and thinly spread it over the strop. With very little friction this paste gives a fine edge to the razor, and its efficiency is still further in- creased by moistening it. Jaborandi is said by the medical journals to have the property of increasing the growth of the hair, and of darkening its shade at the same time. Several instances of increased growth of hair, after the use jaborandi have been adduced in confirma- tion oi this statement. The active ingred- ient in jaborandi infusion is an alkaloid called pilocarpine. Jaborandi ia a shrub imported from Brazil, and has not long been known in British medicine. Slake half a bushel of lime, strain, and add a peck of salt dissolved in warm water, three pounds of ground rice put in boiling water and! boiled to a thin paste, half a pound of powdered Spanish whiting, and a pound of clear blue dissolved in warm water.

The St. John, N.B., cotton mills now em ploy over 500 hands; and are yet five months behind with their orders. It is said that no one who really ^ants to work need be idle a day in St. John. A mechanic has had to postpone a large job because he could not get enough skilled labor in the city. Young Frank Ives, while sitting with a party of friends at a window in the third story of a buildin|| in Des Moines playfully threatened to faU backward to scare the girls present. FinUly he said " Now 1 am going, sure," and he was right, for he lost his uilance, fell through an awning to the pavement, and broke Mb neck. |Mr. William Seddens of Whiteville, Tenn., says that, as he was sitting on his front porch the other evening, something that looked like a meteor came whizzing down through the tree tops, shot past his head, passed into his haU, turning to the left through an open door into his private room, scared his wife and then fled through an open window at the back of a room, 8md -disappeared in the thick woods. Percy Ashland of Adrian, Mich., a 14- year-old boy, who is described asj "very bright and well advanced in the common branchy of study, " has just returned home from nearly a 25,000-mile trip. He made his own way with a bootblack's kit, never rode a brakebeam, and generally found comfortable quarters in the caboose or baggage car. He paid no fare, but put up at a hotel when he arrived in a town. He wrote to his mother each week. A young couple of Harpiu county, Ky., wanted so much to get marri^, in spite of parental opposition, that they started from home on a recent Sunday aftmioon, -walked in the broiling hot stm twenty miles across the country to Upton station, where they caught a train late at night for Louisville. When they arrived in Jeffersonville, they were so thickly coated with dust and coal soot that they were thought* to be negroes but they washed up and were married. The Edmonton Bvlhtin says: It is re- ported that fully a third of the band of Stonies at Wolf Creek have died since last autumn, probably from the effects of ex- posure too quickly following an attack of measles. They are said to be very troublesome now, aioA are, or were, firing tiie timber limits near the mountains in order, as they said to kill the spirits that were killing them. Thgr'are also said to be very unruly in their behaviw towards the Indian department officials. A couple of years ago at a Winnipeg tax sale a gentieman had a lot of land knocked down to him for eight dollars. The amount was so small that he paid no further atten- tion to it until a few weeks ago when he hunted up the lot and was surprised to find on it a neat frame house which was tenanted and fixed up very comfortably. He enquired of the occupant how long he had been there, and was told by the man-, that he and his family had resided in the place for nearly two years. The man explained that he had found the place empty and moved into it. Finding that nobody came along to claim the house he remained there, and was sur- prised to see an owner at last turn up. He agreed, when the greatly astonished pur- chaser asked him the question, tLat it was time he paid rent, and compromised for his two years occupancy for f 150 and took a lease of the house for another year. Who Discovered the Hudson. A London publisher issued a few months ago a facsimile of the famous Bibero map, nude in 1529, and copies of it are bein^ pro- cured by the prindpu historical libraries of the country. It was the greatest map made up to its time, and embraced the discoveries of the early Spanish, Portuguese and French voyagers. A copy recdved at the State library at Albany has convinced a writer in tiie Albany /ounto/ that it shows the Hud- stm river, and therefore that that majestic stream was known long before Hemrich Hudson's time. Dr. George H. Moore, of the Lenox li- brary, which also has a c^y of the map, obaerves, however, that it would be a wise man who should dedde whether the stream indicated is t^e Hudson met or Chesa- peake bay, so very uncertain sro^e ontilnes and so defective is the scale.

The group drew doser, and the stranger began. 'I was riding a tough littie bronco on my way to Lead-ville from^adaimlowned on the other side of the divide, on the slone of what Is called Gold Mountain. I pushed ° rapidly ahead towards the pass. The road beyond the-pass led down a long, straight incline for about a quarter of a mile. This took It to the fringes of timber pine and then it -made a detour of nearly tw6 miles to get around a spur of the range. Suddenly my horse staggered, stumbled, plunged a little, and then came down with a crash, first on his forelegs then flat on his belly, his head down hill I can't readily describe it, but he fell in such a way that my right leg without being crushed or even bruised was TWISTED IN THE STntBTTF STBAP and got fast. "Bight here let me stop to explain a cir- cumstance that will enable you to under- stand the situation. Down |n the valley, at the base of Grold Mountain, was a saw- mill, and extending up from its yard al- most to timber line was what is called a log chute. This ia simply a V-shaped trough, large enough to hold a good -sized pine trunk, and built solidly against the face of the mountain. Of course, it has to be straight, or nearly so, to permit the logs to slide down without obstruction, and use soon makes the inside as smooth as glass. Such a contrivanceiu^ves a great deal of hauling, for as the trees are cut they are draggml ovejr and dumped Into the trough, and go down to the yard like a streak of lightning. It had not been used for about a year, and pine needles, dead boughis, and other rubbish had in places almost hidden It from sight. I was well enough acquain- ted with the jnountainsto know, the instant my bronco fell, that he had walked into the old log chute. "It takes a moment for the coolest head to clear Itself In times of unlocked for peril, and long before that moment had elapsed the bronco and I were on our way to the valley, going faster at every breath, nothing to stop us, death ahead, and thedevil's own railroad underneath. I was sitting almost ere4t in the saddle. The leather flaps had twisted around and kept my lees from rubbing against the side of the trough, but held me LIKE BANDS OF IBON. Even had they not, jumping off would have been out of the question. I have never been on a toboggan, but I think that people who have will understand why I bent all, my energies to holding on. 1 4Ud not faint and did not get dizzy there was a hideous roaring in my ears,^furious wind seemed to all of a sudden tear up -the mountain and suck the breatb out of my mouth, but everything was deadly clear and instinct. "I could see black specks grow fsuddenly into big pines and then shoot past me. I could even see the snow caught up in their needles as they came whizzing up. Every instant, through some dealing, I could see the valley, in a flash, and over it all was a sickening feeling, as though the mountain was isinking away from^ me and I was plunging out into immeasurable space. So strong was this that even now, standing on the solid marble floor, I can recall the qualm and nausea as all support seemed to give way, the earth tip up and let me fall, fall, fallâ€" it felt as if forever 1 A mass of rock as large as this hotel was beneath me. As I looked it seemed to leap into the air like a balloon. There was a black line of forest below. I shot through it as through a ^nnel, and out into the light 4galii. I tried to shut my eyes. It was impossible. I tried to scream. The air had turned to stone. "The t/ees and rocks were indistinguish- able, when all of a sudden a black mass flew up into my face. I felt that I was being beaten, bruised and hurled over, and then EVEKYTHINO WAS STILL AOAIN. '*When the moon was well up I came to myself. I was lying iu a snowdnf t, rubbing at my head and moaning. After a long time I crawled a littie way, and then fell down and cried for my very help^psness. I must have been a little flighfy, and heaven knows how I found my way to Lacy's mill, a quarter of a mile beyond, but I did somehow, and they carried me in and sent for help. You see, the old timber chute had fallen into decay, and some dutance above the yard was a broken place that saved my life. When we reached It the dead bronco jumped the trough and the t^o of us went sailing and turning and cavorting over a field of fresh snow until we stuck into a drift about five hundred yuds away. "The bronco had the worst of it even there, for he kept on going until he struck solid earth! I brdie thres ribs and this arm in so many different places that the doctor wanted to cut it off and be done with it. What, puzzled the mill men most was that my 1^ escaped, but tiie saddle flaps were worn to fringe and that explains it. From the point where I/torted to Uie' break was over two milfes, and the old hands ssid there logs used to make it in leap t^an two minutes.
