In the early days of the French Involution
the prisons of Lyons were tilled
with thousands of unhappy victims.
'Seventy-two prisoners who wore con.
downed were thrown into the Cave of
Death on tho ninth of December, there
to await the execution of their sentence.
This could not be tho next day, because
it was the Peeadr.
One' oi' the prisoners by the name of
Porral. only twenty-one years of ape, of
a bold and' ardent spirit, profiled by
this interval to devise a plan of escape.
His siste rs having, by weans of a very
large bribe, obtained access to this
abode of horror, began to weep around
him.
"It is not now a time to weep," said
he; " it is'a moment to arm ourselves
with resolution and activity, and endeavor
to find some way by which we
cau elude out- menaced fate. Bring me
tiles, a chisi 1, a turn-screw and other in
strameuts; bring wine in abundance;
bring a pon ard, that if minced to extremity,
wo may not perish without tlte
means of defense. Uy this grate, which
looks into the Hue Lafond. you can
give me these things. I will be in waiting
there the whole clay to receive
them."
The sifters retired ; and in the course
of the day. at different visits, brought a
variety of tools, twelve fowls, and about
sixty bottles of v?ii;e. Porral communicated
his project to four others, bold and
active as himself, tirid the whole business
was arranged to his complete satisfaction.
The evening arrived ; a general supper
was proposed?the lust, they .thought,
that they should ever eat. The prisoners
supped well, and exhorted each
other to meet their fate the next mora
ing with heroism and fortitude.
At 11 o'clock the associates began
their labors ; one of them was placed as
a sentinel next the door of the cave,
armed with a poniard, ready to dispatch
. the turnkey if, at his visit at 2 o'clock
^ in the morning, lie should appear to
. . suspect anything; wie orners, piunng oh
?- their coats, begau lo make their researches.
?*. At the extremity of the second cave
they found a iftge door, ami on this
they began their operations. It "was of
oak, ami double-bai red ; by degrees the
c hinges gave way to tho files, and tin?'
door wa-< 110 longer held by thepj.bnt
still they could not force itppfn it was
^ held by something other side,
A hole was madp-jTTit with a chisel,
and, loohiugtlvfmigh, they perceived it
was tieji4^avery strong rope to a post
n^J^rfstancc.
% > *rhis was a terrible rnonieut! They
endeavored in vain to cut the rope with
[ the cliisc-1 or file, but they could not
+ roach it. A piece of wax caudle, how
ever, was procured ; and being lighted
and tied to the end of a stick, they
thrust it through the hole in rhe door
- and burnt the cord asm. dor. The door
was thon opened and the adventurers
; proceeded forward.
.. % * This door they found led only to
r another vault, which served as a depot
* for confiscated effects and merchandise.
Among other things was a large truuk
filled with shirts. They profited by
this discovery to make a change of linen;
and, instead of the clean ones which
they took, they left their own, which
they had worn for many weeks. Two
doors besides that at which they had
entered now offered themselves to their
r choice. .! ti*\v began to utiacit one; oui
they had scaiv.?Iy t he file when
tlioy were by the barking of a
dog behind.
A general consternation seized the
party ; the work was stopped in an inv
. .stunt; perhaps tin> door led into the
* - apartments of the jailor. Tho idea recalled
to their minds tliat it was now
near on to 2 o'clock, the time of his
visit. One of the party returned tol
ward the Cave of Death to see whether
all was safe, and it was agreed to suspend
their labors till his return.
When the scout returned be said that
on his arrival ut the Cave of Death he
- *. shuddered with horror to lind the turnkey
there already. The n an, however,
who had been left as a .sentinel had en\
" gaged him to diinL with him ; and the
if Kcout joining the piny, they Iiati
i > Lim so well that he at l.;.a reeled oil
without examining the cave much, and
was in all prov ability luid hi<t asleep
for the rest of the night. This was
t* very consolatory news.
Quitting the door at which they had
i " heard the dog barking, they applied
themselves to the other. They found
pH-' here folding doors, one of which they
opened and found themselves in a lonjr,
dark passage. At the end they perceived
still another door , but, listening
very intently, they heard the sound of
f. . voices: it, in fact, led to the guardhouse,
where several soldiers in their
national uniform were assembled. This
- v?a&, indeed, a terribly stroke. Hud
r * they the:i go ne so fur only to meet with
a worso obstacle than any they had yet
j| encountered ? Must all their labors
W prove, then, at length fruitless?
r Only one resource then remained,
and this was a door v> Jiich they liad
> passed on the side of the passage, and
fef"5. -r- whJfili they conceived rnu-t lead to the
great court of the Hotel de Yille.
In fact, having forced the door, it appeared
that they were not mistaken;
that they were at the bottom of the
staircase which led into the court. It
' was now half-past 4 o'clock; the morning
was dark and cold, while rain and
. snow were falling in abundance. The
associates embraced each other with
transport, and were preparing to mount
the staircase when i'orral cried out:
"What are you about? If we atempt
to po out at present all is over
- * with us. The gate is now shut, and if
any one should be perceived in the
court the alarm would instantly he given,
and all would be discovered. After having
had the courage to penetrate thus
far let us have resolution to wait awhile.
At 8 o'clock the gate will be opened and
the passage through the court free.
We can then steal out by degrees, and
mingling: with the numbers, we can go
away without being perceived. It is
not till 10 o'clock the prisoners are summoned
to execution; between 8 ai d 10
there will be time enough for all of us
to get away. We will return to the
cave, and when the time of departure
arrives each of us live wi'l inform two
'i, others of the means of escape offered.
We shall then be fifteen, and goin^ out
three at a time, we shall pass unobserved.
Let the last three as they set
off inform fifteen others, and thus in
succession we may all make our escape.
This plan appeared Judicious and safe;
it wfts unanimously agreed to, and the
associates returning to the cave, made
choice of those who should first be informed
of what they had done.
llontellier, a notary, and Baron de
Challo to whom the means of escape
were ofibred, refused to avail themselves
of them, the former from a confidence of
. a pardon, as he had been mistaken foi
his brother; and the latter, though in
1," the flower oUtis age, declared that all
jfc hii lies to this world were broken, an<"
|9k \liat life had nothing now to offer whicl
L .
! could make him desirous of prolonging
| it. They were both guillotined in the
j morning.
| The fate of the fifteen who fled was
j very dissimilar, and the escape of th<
i rest was prevented by the imprudence o
! one of them. The last of the lifteer
who, in quitting the cave, was according
to the plan arranged, privately to apprise
I fifteen others, instead of doing so, criei
; aloud:
"The passage is open ; let every on(
: that cau, escape."
This excited a great movement among
the prisoners. inoy arose 111 uu m
1 stunt, doubting whether what they hear*;
! could be true, or whether ho who ut
1 tercd these words was not mad. Tin
noise they made alarmed the sentine.
i without; he called to the turnkey; tliej
; hastened immediately to the cave, per
; ceived what had been done, and closing
ii}) the doors by which the prisoner
!iad escaped, placed a strong gnarc
' before it. Xesple, who had excited this
movement, was, with three others, taker
and executed. Another of the fugitive.'
took refuge in the house of a friend, in
j au obscure street; but. he was diseov
j ered, brought back and guillotined.
It was not thus with Porral, the orig:
inal author of the plan. He was the
first that came forth from the cave. At
he passed the sentinel in the court, he
' said:
" My good friend, it rains and sue
| very hard; werel in your place I would
j not remain out of doors such weather,
but would go to the tire in the guard
j room."
The sentinel thanked him, and, following
his advice, the coast was left
more clear for the prisoners. Terra]
took refuge in the house of one whe
was considered a good patriot, and esI
caped the observation of a party of
| commissioners who entered the house,
As soon as they were gone, lie began
to think of making his way out of the
city as fast as possible. AVhen he arrived
at the Palace Belle-Courhe fouiul
parties of the gendarmerie dispersed
every where. Torral went into a house,
l.-i'iiT l.-Tinwr! tvlm he was. en
treated an asylum.
The inhabitants wore women, timid
<o excess, but the desire of saving an
innocent person rendered them courageous.
They conducted him into n
garret and concealed him behind some
planks standing up in a coiner.
The gendarmes arrived; they searched
the house; they came iuto the garret
where Porral was concealed. Hero
they found a large cask, the top oi
which was fastened down by a padlock.
They asked for the key; the
women went downstairs for it. While
they wero gone the gendarmes leaned
against the planks, while a second one
said:
" Twouhl be droll enough if we were
[ to find one of the fugitives concealed in
this cask."
" More likely plate or money," says a
third, " for it seems very heavy."
The key at length arrived; the cask
was unlocked and was found to be full
of salt. The gendarmes swore at this
disappointment, visited the roof of the
house and then retired. In tiie evening
Porral, dressed in women's clothes,
with a basket on his head and anothei
o.i his arm, passed the bridge of La
Guilletiere and quitted the eity.
Gabriel, another of the fugitives, concoaled
himself among the bushes in the
i marshes of the Trevauxe Perracli, where
ho was nearly frozen to death, but he
got away to a place of safety.
One young Couclioux, who was one of
the live that had opened the way of
escape, made choice of his father, who
I was nearly eighty years of age, as one
of the fifteen, but the poor old man's
logs were swollen, and ho was scarcely
able to walk.
' Fly, fly, my son ! " he said; "if thou
hast the opportunity fly this instant! I
command it as an act of duty, but it is
impossible that I should flv with thee.
T lived loner enoucli?my troubles
will soon be finished, and death will
be deprived of its sting if I know
thou art in safety." -'
The son assured him- tiiat he would
not quit the prison' without him, and
that his persj>4ing in his refusal woidd
onlyenvl-'in the destruction of both.
4 Tli^father, overcome by his dutiful
"'afiVctiou,yielded, and, supported by liis
son, made his way to the bottom of the
staircase, but to ascend it was out of his
piwor; he could just drag his legs along
he ground, but to lift them up was impossible.
Ins son, though low in stature
and not strong, took him up in his
arms. The desire of saving his father
gave him renewed strength, and he
carried him to the top of the stairs. His
filial piety was rewarded, aud both
father and sou escaped.
The Feet.
Corns- that common bane of mankind?are
sure to result from the wearing
of any boots that do not fit comforti
ably and allow ample space for the
proper movements of the joints of the
feet and the toes; bunions, which are
painful tumors formed by an actual
' inflammation of a small sac or bursa
situated over the joint of each great toe;
weak ankles, which are very commonly
produced by wearing the fashionably
made boots with high heels,-together
with a relaxed condition of the muscles
1 * 1 - "cntfJnr* 4-/-\r\
ami tenuous ox iuh icy , lu-^iumug cnails,
which are not only most painful,
but also take some time to be thoroughly
I cured, and necessitate actual operative
| interference; chilblains, which, although
they may and do take place in
those who do not wear tight boots, are
still invariably the outcomes of them,
from interrupted circulation ; cold feet,
from the sjuue cause; and last, but by
| far the worst of all, an actual diseased
condition of one or more joints either
of the toes or of the foot itself. All
these, then, may be the wages wo have
to p'iv for the comparatively small
pleasure of being considered possessed
of "a pretty foot."
But because you are not to wear
tight-fitting boots, it is no reason that
you should go to the other extreme and
wear the hideous unshaped things that
are often seen ; all I wish to insist on is
that you should be satisfied with the
size and shane of the foot Providence
way have ordained you to lie the possessor
of, and do your liest to maintain
it in its natural and healthy condition.
I How, then, can this be done but bv
having your boots made exactly and
comfortably to lit yon ; by never allowing
yonr bootmaker to measure youi
foot while raised from the ground, remembering
that the foot expands quite
one-twelfth of its length, and laterally
still more, when the weight of the bod\
is upon it ; by having a last made ol
the exact shape of your foot, and ahvay>
having your boots made upon it; bj
never wearing those abominable higl
and narrow-pointed lieels, which arc
positively dangerous, ungainly, and cer
tain to lead to bad results ; and, finally
bv having the soles of your boots mad<
of fairly substantial thickness, and o
not too soft or porous leather.
By these means, then, you will beena
bled to take the exercise absolutely
necessary for your bodily health, t(
venture upon the longest walks with n<
dreaded prospect of discomfort, ami t<
I retain f^r your feet in your old age tliei
normal shape awl condition ; and tin
price you will have to pay for this much
! coveted end is the were loss of tin
1 whispered compliment, dropped fron
the lips of thoughtless men or ignoian
fools, " What a prettv fuot!"'?II<rrper\

Liked Asparagus.
The Emperor William, of Germany,
has a very sensitive palate, and is verj
fond of asparagus. At one of the din
ners at the royal castle at the time ol
his grandson's marriage the emperoi
' remarked: "It is very strange; even
time I eaf, aspaiagus at the castle il
tastes of soap, which it never does al
| the palace." The most searching in
quiries were instituted, but nothing
1 suspicious could be discovered. Htil]
i the empc-ior had been so positive thai
another council of war was held, thistime
comprising the treatment of tin
| vegetable from the entrance into tin
castle to the time of its being served al
table. The result was a complete vin
; dication of the emperor's acute sense ol
: taste. The castle kitchen is so un
J favorably situate ! as to necessitate tin
i j carrying of the dishes to be servei
across the cattle yard, during whicl
i transit they are placed in covered bas
kets. In order to kco the asparagus
i hot the asparagus dishes are coverei
with an extra supply of hot napkins
These napkins, like all other table linen
are washed in soap, and asparagus
i being more tlmn ordinarily sensitive, i:
11 but too apt, to acquire a soapy tast<
from the l>rief contact with the napkins
' i The dish being first handed to the em
! peror, he could hardly help taking ji'.s

j meal or moldy grain are always unsuit- j
, able. For table use, where a line ilavor
! is desired, fowls should be confined in i
! clean quarters, and be fed oil wholesome j
1 food for at least one week before
slaughter. Where fowls are confined in j
small compass, some absorbent should :
bo used to neutralize tlTe droppings, j
otherwise the flesh will become tainted j
; from the disagreeable odor arising!
. therefrom. For this purpose there is
? , nothing better than air-slack lime or j
unleached wood ashes, where there is

We found last year that the Beauty of

to be especially free from this disease, j
All soils are improved by mixing.
; The physical properties of the soil have j
. j an important influence upon its average j
' fertility. The admixture of pure sand
i with clay soil produces an alteration
i | which is often beneficial, and which is j
. I almost wholly mechanical. The sand j
I opens the pores of the clay and makes ,
j | it more permeable to the air.
There is no one special fertilizer that !
1 1 will meet all the needs of grass. A good !
I mixed compost is the best. Such a one j
could be made of swam}) muck, rotten j
i leaves or manure, or oven earth for the
! basis, and gypsum, salt, bone flour, or |
I super-phosphate of lime and fish guano !
i 01 nitrate of soda. Ten loads of the j

The cheapest meat for the farmer is '

Corn requires fertility and cultiva- ]
tion, without which, it matters not how
I good your seed, you will never have a i
| good crop, however propitious the sea- j
son may be.
Boiled cabbage and potato skins are
highly relished by laying liens. Onions ,
are a regular delicacy for al' kinds of i
! poultry.
Vines are said to extract from the ;
J soil only about three-fourths the quan-1
; tity of potash and phosphoric O'-id which i
: the cereals take up.
Potash is an excellent fertilizer for the j
grape vine. Fork in around the roots a
few pecks of wood ashes. Cow dung
contains a large portion of potash and
1 but a comparatively small amount of
I nitrogen, consequently it is a better
I fertilizer than horse manrre for the
I grape vine.
A New York farmer writes that lie j
I planted eight acres of low, mucky land i
I witn red kidney beans. Ou the twen- !
j tieth of July, alter cultivating the beans j
i for the last time, purple top strap leaf i
turnips were sown between the rows j
with a hand drill. The beans yielded !
twenty-one bushels to the acre, and the j
turnips were a splendid crop. This, !
being his'first crop of turnips, is a very j
encouraging experience.
To make a complete manure from
swamp muck, says Dr. Stewart, we |
" * n rn .i.^ i
I would proceed as ionows: juuhj m 0 !
honed swamp muck forty bushels, or
; one two-hor?e wagon ]oud; mix \
thoroughly with it five bushels of wood
ashes, 100 pounds of line bone flour,
100 pounds of finely ground plaster and i
throw it into a heap, in which it will j
heat and ferment, and leave it for two j
j or three months. This will be equal to
I twice its bulk of the best cow manure. 1

the following as a receipe for a most
^ delicious pea soup: Put half a pound

1 and add to it a quart of green pear.
Shake them rouml constantly for fifteen !
mirmtns to l.vnvMit their brownincr.

j Then take out half the peas and set
. i aside; then pour in two quarts of vege- j
j. | talde stock, or some prefer boiling
water. Cut fine about a pint of spinach,
! half a dozen green onions, a little mint
t if agreeable and a head o: celery. Set
, | the kettle wliorc this will stew slowly
^ j two hours till the materials are reduced
| to a jelly, then add the pint of peas re'
served, three tea<-poonfuls of sweet bnt^
| tor rolled in flour, two tablespoonfuls j
j of salt and one of black pepper. Let it
just boil up, then pour into a hot soup J
. tureen and serve immediately.

3 inches thick. Bake as quickly as von
! | can without scorching, and eat warm or
t I cold with butter.
.? Flit'it Pies.?Fruit pies in deep
, dishes, such as are made by the English !
) and French, are preferable to ordinary
I fruit pie, because von obtain more juice !
{ and fruit. The best method of making
\ j these is as follows: Take a deep, oval
. [ pie dish, china (not tin), line the edge ,
f ! with paste, also about half its depth iu.
| side. Now place a small cup, an egg
. 1 cup is best, and one that, will stand a
. ; little above the edge of the dish; next
i till your dish with fruit, then add a lit- j
. j tie water if your fruit has not too much
t ' juice. Some fruits, such as currants j
i and raspberries, have enough juice; also
. add sugar to taste Now cover this
, with a crust of short paste, wash it with j
> water or white of an egg, and dust with
. powdered sugar. Make a few fancy cuts
t on it before baking, and after it is
. i washed and sugared do not cut too
f j deep. These cuts give it a rich-looking
. j appearance. The cup in the center eol>
I Iccts tin? juice, and if the whole of tlie j
I pie is not eaten at one meal what is left
t ; can be supplied with juice by simply
. lifting the cup arid allowing the juice
i j to escape. The edge of this pie, to l?e
| artistic, should be pinched up with the
linger und thumb, then notched with a
knife. If you use fruit which gives too
' much juice you can prevent boiling over
^ bv mixing a little flour with the sugar,
about one teaspoonful of flour to twelve !

To make ua happy; all. its precious things?
What men call precious, and for which they
live?
To a sad heart are worthless offerings.
For what arc gems and what is tawny gold ?
And rarest spices from sweet Cyprian blooms?
And silken fabrics shimmering fold on fold,
dissolved in the milk. Mix the cream
tartar with flour enough to make the
dough just stiff enough to handle, fry in
hot lard, take out and lay on brown
paper a moment, then in a dish and
grate sugar over them first on one side
and then on the other; do not allow
them to cool before putting on the
sugar.
Preserved Plums.?Allow to every
pound of fruit a pound of sugar; put into
stone jars alternate layers of fruit and
sugar, and place the jars in a moderately
warm oven. Let them remain until
the oven is cool. If prepared at teatime

In the matrimonial market some

If it is your purpose in life to make

The books that delight the mind and

Employ thy time well, if thou meanest
to gain leisure; and since thou art not
sure of a minute, throw not away ar.
hour. Leisure is time for doing something
useful; this leisure the diligent
man will obtain, but the lazy man never;
for a life of leisure and a life of laziness
arc two things.
it is not what we earn, but what we
save, that makes us rich. It is not
what we eat, but what we digest, that
makes us strong. It is not what we
read, but what we remember, that makes
us wise. It is not what we intend, but
what we do, that makes us useful. It is
not a few faint wishes, but a life-long
struggle, that makes us valiant.
An Old Florida Fort,
Writing about Fort Marion, St. Augustine,
some scribe says: This fort, constructed
of a shell conglomerate, known
as coquina stone, was begun in 1G9G,
and, built by Indian labor, was finished
in 175G. It is a model of the military
engineering of the time of its construction,
and when garrisoned by British
troops from 17G3 to 170(3, it was considered
one of the finest fortresses in the
British possessions. It covers an acre
of ground, and the vaulted rooms,
opening off from the central square,
furnish accommodations for 1,000 met*,
and tho fort .will mount*" 100 guns.
Ovci Tort Marion have waved the 8j>.uiish,
English, Confederate and United
States flags. The American Hag was
first raised above its battlements in
1N21. in 18UG, while a heavy gun was
being mounted on the northeast bastion,
the terreplein fell in, and a hitherto unsuspected
dungeon was revealed. Upon
its lloor lay a human skeleton, chained

the wall, which, from its appearance, J
and from tho comparative newness of
its cement, had evidently had not been
a part of the original wall. On removing
this stone the explorers entered a i
second and smaller dungeon, and by
the light of their lan'ern, saw two iron
cages, one of which had fallen to the
lloor but the other was still hanging by
a hook to the wall. Each cage contained
the skeleton of a human being,
one of which had evidently been a woman.
For what crime, or unfortunately

of these cages, with its contents, which
had been broken by its fall to the
ground, was buried near the fort, while
the other one was sent to the Smithsonian
institution. It is believed,
however, that it was not allowed to remain
in the museum long, but was removed.
An old sergeant living near by
is the only guardian of the fort, as its
rooms are too damp to be inhabited.

Mow the Kroiini rs Live.
Recent events have given an interest
in these people, who dwell iu an almost
unknown country in North Africa. The
dwellings of the Kroumir chiefs are
somewhat superior to the other inhabitants,
but even the chiefs share their
homes with the mules, the cows and the
goats. The dwelling consists of but
ono room, divided into two unequal
compartments by a roughly made partition
about a meter high. On one side
of this Willi the family Jive; on me
other the cattle. At the entrance to
each village or group of mucl lints there
is a sort of public building called the
" Djemaa," or meeting place, anil it is
here that the people assemble at intervals
to discuss*matters of general interest.
The men wear a loosely-fit ting
woolen or cotton shirt, and over it one
or two burnous, according to the season.
Their headgear is a friiul of skull-cap,
kitted or of red felt. The arms, legs
and the neck are left bare, but the feet
are protected by apiece of leather attached
to the foot by a number of intertwining
strings. The dress of the young
women is described as extremely graceful.
A large piece of woolen stuff,
folded in two, is attached to the
shoulder with a metal brooch, and
reaches just below the knees. A brightlined
girdle encircles the waist, and
their toilet is completed by a gaudy
handkerchief wound round the head.
With regard to morals the laws are
strict. No man is allowed to have more
than one wife, or to live with a woman
unless the union has been sanctioned by
marriage ceremonies. Women, however,
are bought and sold like cattle,
and a widow can be appropriated by a
male relative of her diseased husband
without any payment being exacted
for her. The, usual diet of the tribe
consists of " kous-kousson," a national
dish, milk in abundance, and fruit; the
aged alone cat wheat or meat. The
Kronniirs entertain scant respect for the
authority of the bey of Tunis, but regard
with reverence Abilallah-bonrjemal,
their patron; it is this marabout
or priest who, they believe, protects
their territory, and to whom they
look for guidance.?lltnui

A Lizard or a Lie.
An astonishing siory has been brought
to light by tin? serious illness of a man
named Pete Lemcn, living in Detroit, to
the effect that two years ago ho swallowed
a small lizard in a glass of water,
and that it has lived and continued to
grow in the man's stomach till it has attained
huge dimensions, and can be felt
just below the ribs above the loins. It
moves about, the stomach, musing great
pain and profuse vomiting. Lenten can
only rest, when the lizard is still and by
lying Hat on his buck, and has come to
be hopeless of relief save in death.

All Indian Fever and Ague Cure.
A party of us, while on a recent excursion,
cam 3 across a company of Indians
who were from Maine. One old
squaw, who was preparing materials for
baskets of rather line pattern, was quite
sociable. In the course of our conversation
she told us an Indian boy had
the fever and ague. We asked:
" What do you do fo:r it?"
"Oh, we do what they tell us? r

they call it."

Every one has observed that dull,
gloomy weather is pretty sure to pro
duco dispiriting thoughts; there is ?
natural reason for this?the mind is nol
only a motive, but a receptive organ
and all the impressions it receives fron
without reach it through the media o
senses which are dependent on the con
ditions of light and atmosphere for thei]
action, and therefore immediately in
fluenced by the surrounding conditions
It is n common-sense inference that i;
the impressions from withoui reach th(
mind through imperfectly acting organ!
of sense, and those impressions are ir
themselves set in a minor .-esthetic kej
of color, sound, ancl general qualities,
the mind must be what is caller!
"moody." It is not the habit of ever
sensible people to make sufficient allowance
for this rational of dullness anc
subjective weakness. This suscepti
bility to outside influences varies witl
different people?hence the wide diver
sity of temperaments.

P0LITAN SCIENTIFIC ASSOCIATION. ?'

" The public speaker of the present day la- b
bora under difficulties of which the speakers ol
the last century never dreamed, for while the
audiences of the past received what was said a
without rjuestion, those of the present day ar<
I usually tue mental equais or supurjura 01 mc
ones who address them. Rev. Dr. Tyng, o) P
New York, when a theological student, supplied ^
| a church in a neighboring town, and on his ti
j way to preach one morning met an aged colored a
I man. ' Well, Uncle, do you ever go to hour the m
young preacher?'asked the unfledged doctor. 'No,
Mawa,' replied the negro, 'dis chile don't
let none o' dem students practis 011 him.' The
darkey had begun to think. The free and independent
thought of this age accents state- |
inents oniy wnero mey are proven to uu num,
while the development of mental power seems
equally great in every other department of life.
The valuable inventions of the day are counted I
by thousand*. The increaso of scientific study
is universal. The spirit of inquiry in all fields
is so marked as to cause
COMMENT ON EVERY SIDE,
while people seem investigating and advancing
in every direction which can help them moral|
lv, mentally or physically. This is specially
true of the human body and everything which
concerns it, and the truths which the people
have found, even in the last fifty years, are
simply marvelous. How really ignorant some
j cultured and supportably scientific people were
only a few years ago as compared with the present
day, may bo better understood from a few illustrative
facts. A prominent writer prepared an
elaborate essay to prove that steamships could
never cross the Atlantic, and his pampnlet was
issued just in time to be carried by the first
steamer that went to England. People oncu
believed that the heart was the seat of life and
j health. It is now known that this organ is only
a pump, simply keeping in motion what other
and more important organs of the body have
created and transformed. It was once supposed
that if a person felt a pain in the back, the liver
was deranged; if a pain came In the lower chest
! ti.n inni^ ivnrn nfTivte.l and consumption was
near; it is now known that a pain in the back
| indicates diseased kidneys, whilo troubles in the
! lower chest arise from a disordered liver and
: not imperfect lungs. A severe pain in the head
, was once thought to come from some partial
derangement of the brain; it is now known that
troubles in other parts of tho body and away
from the head, cause headaches and that only
by removing the cause can tho pain be cured.
; It ia a matter of
PRIVATE HISTORY
that General Washington was bled to death.
I His last illness was slight, and caused principally
by weariness. A physician was called who
I 'bled him copiously.' Strange to say, the
patient became no better. Another doctor was .
called, who again took away a large amount of
the vital tluid. Thus in succession four physicians
drew away the life of a great man who was
intended by nature for an old age, and who prematurely
died?murdered' by malpracticebled
to death. That was the age of medical ,
bleeding!" !
The speaker then graphically described an- j
other period which camo upon tho people, in }
which they assigned the origin of all diseases to f
the stomach, and after showing the falsity of j
this theory, and that the kidneys and liver were
tho causes of disease, and that "many people aro
! suffering from kidney and liver troubles to-day
will) <lo not Know, out who snomu snow it miu
, attend to them at once, continued:
"Let us look at this matter a little moro
closely. The human body is the most perfect
t and yet the most delicate of all created things.
? It is capable of the greatest results and it id
I liable to the greatest disorders. The slightest
: causes sometimes seem to throw its delicate
s machinery out of order while the most simple
t and common sense care restores and keeps them
f in perfect condition. When it is remembered
1 that tlie amount of happiness or misery we are
to have in this world is dependent upon a perfect
body, is it not strange that simple precautions
and care arc not exercised ? This is one
of the most vital questions of life. People may i
i avoid it lor the present, bnt there is certain to ]
1 come a timo in every one's experience when it <
i must he faced.
3 "And here pardon mc for relating a little
personal experience. In the year 1870 I found
i myself losing both in strength and health. 1
3 could assign no cause for the decline, but it
continued, until finally I called to my aid two
prominent physicians. After treating me foi
some timo they declared I waa suffering from
Bright's disease of the kidneys, and that they
, could do nothing moro for me. At this timel
. was so weak I could not raise my head from the> ,
t pillow and I
I FA1XTKD UEPF.ATF.nfcY.
My heart beat so rapidly it was with difficulty ]
! could sleep. My lunga were also badly involved; i
. I could retain in.thing upon my stomach,
* while tho most intense pains in my back and
- bowels caused me to long for death as a relief,
f It via at this critical juncture that a physical
longing which I felt (and which I most firmly
believe was an inspiration) caused me to send
for the leaves of a plant I had once known in
E medical practice. After great difficulty I at I
) last secured them and be^an their use in the
5 form of tea. I noticed a lessening of tho paiu 1
at once: I began to mend rapidly; in five weeks
J was able to bo about and in two months I be- I
T ! came perfectly well and have so continued to
, this day. It was only natural that such a re[
suit should have caused mo to investigate moil
thoroughly. I carefully examined fields in
medicine never lwfore explored. I sought the
j cause of physical order and disorder, happiness
I j and pain, rml I found the kidneys and liver tc
. be the governors, whose motions regulate the
. j entire system."
I A /lnu<i?'i|?inrr of l^nrrfh 41m rkftiPAQ f?f Ml*
kldnevs anil liver, ami their important part ic
life, the doctor went on to say:
"Having found this great truth, I saw clearly
lI the cause of my recovery. The simple vegetable
| leaf I had used was a food and restorer to mj i
L well-nigh exhausted kidneys and liver. It had j
r | como to them when their "life was nearly gone
5 and by its simple, yet powerful intluenco had
purified, strengthened and restored them and
saved me from death. Realizing the great benefit
which a knowledge of this truth would give
to the world I began, in a modest way, to treat
those afflicted and in every rase I found the
! aamo
l HAPPY RESULTS
| which I had experienced. Not only this but
1 many, who were not conscious of any physical
1 trouble but who, at mv suggestion, "began the
use of the remedy which had saved my life, ]
found their health steadily improving and" their :
' strength continually increasing. So universal,
' where used, was this true, that I determined the
entire world should share in its results, and 1
' * therefore placed the formula for its preparation j
1 in the hands of Mr. II. II. Warner, of Rochester, i
1 N. Y., a gentleman whom I had cured of a |
1 severe kidney disease, ami who, by reason of ,
! his personal worth, high standing and liberality |
' in endowing tho Astronomical Observatory anil j
other public enterprises, has become known and (
1 popular to the entire country. This gentleman i
at once began tho manufacture of the remedy
on a most extensive scale, and to-day, Warner's i
| Safe Kidney and Liver Cure, tho pure remedy
I that saved my life, is known and used in ail
i parts of tho continent.
' "I am aware a prejudice exists toward pro>
| prietary medicines, and that such prejudice is
1 j too often well-founded, but tho value of a pun
b remedy is no less because it is a proprietary
I medicine. A justifiable prejudice exists toward
! J quack doctors, but is it right that this preju^
| dice should extend toward all the doctors who
5 | are earnestly and intelligently trying to do
M their duty? liecause Warner's Safe Kidney
[ I and Liver Cure saved my life before it became
r | a proprietary medicine, is it reasonable to sup.
i pose that it will not cure others and keep stdl
j more from sickness now that it is sold with a
' i government stamp on the wrapper? Such a
- theory would be childish."
The doctor then paid some high compliments
to American science, and closed his lecturc as
follows:
H " How to restore tho health when broken, and
t j how to keep the body perfect and free from
; j disease must ever be man's highest study.
) That one of the greatest revelations or tho
; present day has been made in ascertaining tho
[ j true seat of health to be in the kidneys and |
r ' liver, all scientists now admit, and I can but
j fcel.tliat the discovery which I have been per- j
) ' mitted to make, and which I have described to
t I you, is destined to prove the greatest, best and
j most reliable friend to those who suffer and ,
, : long for happiness, as well as to those who de>
{ sire to keep the joys they now possess."
