A remedy which has gone far too

Any

serve perfectly as a cup, and its appli

also unattended with ntry danger what

POULTICES.
When pain In the chest is diffuse and
" of more moderate intensity a poultice
will often be found of great service.
Poultices may bo made of many dif-
erent materials, but I shall speak onlyt
iuuso or iiaxseea, oatmeai, Drcau ana
, starch. The ingredients of the threo
latter are in every house, while flaxseed
is kept by grocers and druggists alike.
It is not quite so easy a matterto make
a .good poultice as it seems, and as
there is a wrong as well as a nVht way
of doing everything, I ventunAo give
short and simple directions in tho
persuasion that such mav be ef use.

meal gradually into the water, a thor
ough admixture is ensured. A poultice
made by ""adding water to the meal is
apt to be lumny, and is then less com
fortable and soothing to the natieiit
Next, spread the dough rapidly and
evenly on the linen, leaving an edge
of linen at least a couple of inches wide
all round uncovered, and then turn this
edge over the meal in order to prevent
its escape and thus protect the bed
clothes and dress of the patient. Last
ly, cover the face of the poultice with
a bit of old muslin a couple of layers

next dram tne orcau, neat up wiiu a

the directions given forallax-secd poul
tice. Add enough rolil water to the
starch to blend the two substances, and
then add enough boilinj water to make
a poultice of the required consistency;
spread in the manner described and ap
ply. A poultice enveloping the whole
chest is very useful in severe bronchitis
or pneumonia jn children. The linen
should be cut large enough to go round
the whole chest, and tapes should be
sewed to it in such away that they can
be tied in front and over each shoulder.
Young children are often so restless
and toss about so much when sick that
an ordinary poultice becomes rucked
up, leaves part of the surficc which it
is intended to cover opood. anil thus
involves risk of taking cold, to say
nothing of partly defeating its object.
A thick flaxseed poultice of this kind
is. of course, pfettv heavy, and it is for
children particularly that an outer lay
er of cotton wool is applicable. The
poultice can then bespread thinner and
yet retain its heat well, while its weight
will not hamper the breathing.

FOMENTATION
Of flannel wrung out of hot water have
the same purpose as poultices in afford
ing heal and moisture, but, being far
lighter, are more applicable to a part
which is very tender or sensitive to
pressure. Tho abdominal organs aro
not, as aro those of the chcl, protected
from pressure by an unyielding wall of
bone, and cartilage, and aro consequent
ly less tolerant of anything heavy when
inflamed.
The flannel should be dipped in boil
ing water, placed in a towel and then
well wrung out; the hands are thus
protected from tho hot water, and. if
tho flannel is thoroughly wrung, thero
is no danger of scalding Ihokin! Apply
the flannel as quickly as possible, and
cover it over with several thicknesses
of warm, dry towel, warm cotton-wool,
or better still oiled silk, and fasten
it in placo with a bandage.
The object of covering the flannel Is,
of course, to enable it to retain its heat
and moisture for a longer time. Fo
mentations mus.t be frequently re
newed and, after they are finally re
moved, the part should be tru3d in
tho same way as after a poultici"
ne.tion nf n fninnntntmn rni hM

mentations relax spasms of internal or
gans more than poultices, and are hence
of more use iu any kind of colic
Severe pain in the back like that of
lumbago, or down the back of the thigh,
like that in sciatica, may often be ad-vautagcously-trcated
by ironing. Sev
eral thicknesses of flannel should be
Jaid over the part and a hot flatiron
applied with pressure, just as in irou"
ing clothes. The heat should bo as
great as can bo well borne, and after
tho ironing is over tho flannel should bo
left on the part and held in place by a
bandago or otherwise. Frederick C.

Mr. Blanket sat looking at tho baby
trying to think of the usual idiotic, un
meaning and unmeaut things that
people say about new babies, and at
last in a spasm of originality, remarked
that "the baby had its father's com
plexion." Then they all sat and looked
at the rich cardinal hues that made the
wrinkled countenance of tho uncon
scious infant glow like a mountain sun
set, and nobody said anything until a
feeble voice from tho adjoiuing room
said: "It was a good thing tho baby
had it naturally, then, as "it required
about fifteen years steady practice and
the co-operation of three scientitic clubs
and live political campaigns, to acquire
it." Then a sad quiet stole over the
room again, only broken by the hard
breathing of the baby's father, looking
at the thermometer to sco what time it
was. while Mr. Blanket, feeling that he
could add nothing to what hatt already
been said, stolo down stairs softlv
whispering to himself about some fool,
but the corapauy couldn't catch the
name and didn't know who ho meant.

There .are two periods in the moral
and intellectual development of a girl
which cause the profoundest anxiety to
a mother. At five years old, or there
abouts, the period of babyhood Li past,
while the period of girlhood is not yet
reached, and, between the two, comes
a time of anarchy and chaos. Th lit
tle soul is now bursting its shackles and
iryin" to readjust itself to new condi
tions.0 The child is ceasing to be a
mere pet and plaything, and is begin
ning to live an individual life. Noth

cile, well-trained child suddenly devel
op, without any apparent reason, a
iy at variance with its previous habit- '

n .sweet ilaiKrhtnr whr is vo tralk beside
her all her days, making life fragrant
and beautiful to her by sharing with
hcrall her youthful hopes, and trusts,
turns heart-sick at the naughtiness of
the half-Hedged termagant. For it is
the good, cherubic little girl who usual
ly manifests the change; aspoiled child
is so thoroughly disagreeab'e all the
while that any accession of badness Ls
not noticeable. A great deal of self
condemnatiou and unhappy foreboding
would be spared the mother if she
would only recognize that much of
what is so very unlovely is not essen
tially wrong that it is merely what is
good in a state of unripeness. The
fragrant blossom has withered and fall
en away, leaving in its place the hard
and acid embryo fruit A wise mother
will be very careful to distinguish be
tween those qualities which promise
evil in their developed form and those
which arc mere crudities, and her aim
will be to foster all the unfolded pos
sibilities in her child's nature, ami help
to bring them to a beautiful maturity.
Every one knows how tiresome and
unattractive a little girl usually is when
she has outgrown her infantile sweet
ness. Tho little impertinences, the
saucy retorts and unflattering person
alities which have won for her smiles
and caresses, or. at vorst, an admiring
reproof, all at once become intolerable,
and arc rebuked with acerbity. The
very ways which she has been taught
to consider charming beconn
j subjects
for displeasure when the baby round'
ncss and dimples aro gone. Her sense
of justice is outraged, and the un
warped scn-c of ju-tice in a child is
o.ten very strong. She becomes a lit
tle Ishmael, her hand against every
man's, and every man's hand against
her. In a certain sense this can scarce
ly be avoided, but, if the mother s love
be unfailing, and her .sympathy always
ready, she can keep sweet the fountain
of love and trust which, without that
refuge, might become very bitter. Just
when this new life is unfolding, a moth
er's wise care is most earnestly needed.
The soul which has seemed to draw its
life from hers is beginning to lead an
individual existence. It is to the per
fect development of this individuality
that the mother should bend all her
strength. Each human soul contains
within itself the germ of its own life.
To make of it all that mav be made, the.
mother should onlv guide the growth.
leaving it free within the limits of mor-
al probity to jrrow into its lullest nos
sibiiity. She cannot lop it oil" here and
there, or suppress its 'growth yonder,
without maiming and stultifying the
whole nature.
The dangerous quicksands of this
period safely past the mother begins to
breathe freely again. She again begins
to see visions and to dream dreams, till

Origin of Some Social Customs.
In primitive States, the conquered
man surrenders himself, his weapons
and whatever of his clothing is worth .
having; hence, stripping becomes a '
mark of submission. Cook, for in-1
stance, relates of some Tahitians, "they,
took off a great part of their clothes,
and put them on us." In another tribo '
this ceremony is abridged to the pre- .
sentation of the girdle only. In Abys
sinia inferiors strip, to the girdle be-1
fore superiors. A further abridgment j
is found among the natives of the Gold ,
Coast, who salute Europeans by slight
ly removing their robe from the left
shoulder; but even there special re-
spect is shown by completely uncover- ,
ing the shoulder. " IrT other tribes they
also doffthe cap. Hence, it seems that
"the removal of the hat among Euro
pean peoples, often reduced aniongour
selvcs to touching the hat is a remnant i
of that process of unclothing himself by
which in early timo the captive ex
pressed the yielding up of all he had."
Not less interesting is the explana
tion of the origin of shaking hands. f
From kissing, as a natural sign of af- '
fcetion. to kissing the hand us a com-
pliment. the transition is eas', and re-1
quires no further explanation; for a ,
simulation of affection, no less than
submission, is an essential part ot pro
pitiatdry ceremony. "If, of two pe
pitiatdry ceremony. "Jf, ot two per-
sons, each wishes to mane an oocisance i
to the other by kiss ng his hand, and
each out of compliment refuses to have
his own hand kissed, what will hap-
pen? .lust as when leaving a room
each of two persons, proposing to give
the other precedence, will relu-e to go t
first, and there will result at the door
way some conflict of movements pre- I
venting either from advancing; so, jf
each of two tries to kiss tho other's
hand and refuses to have his own
kissed, there will result a raising of the
hand of each by the other toward his
own Iins: and by the other, a drawing '
w-.. ' . i
of it down again; and so on alternately.
Clearly, the difference between the sim
ple . squeeze, to which this salute is now
often abridged, and the old-fash oned
hearty shake exceeds the difference be
tween the hearty shake and the move
ment that would result from the effort
of each to kit-s the hand of the other."
Kissiii"-. we have said, is a natural
' expression of affection; and il is curi-
ous to note the analogous manilesta-
tions among animals and tome of tho
lower tribes of men. A dog displays
his affection for his master by licking
his hand. A ewe distinguishes her
lamb by the olfactory sense, and ap
parently derives pleasure from its exer
cise. The same sense is used among
men not only to distinguish, as in the

Iniliau Names.
Nomenclature among Tho Indians is
apt to he exceedingly bewildering both
to themselves end everybody else,
from the fact that one name, whether
of a person or a thing, never has tho
slightest distinct relation to another.
The uncivilized have evidently never
met with the necessity of permanently
identifying members of the same
fami'y: and in permitting the joung
man, jut warrior-grown, to choose a
name for himself, or compelling him
by persistency cither to keep the
one he received before he knew it, or
o accept the cognomen chosen for him
by his associates, they are certainly
carrying their ideas of native freedom
to the utmost limit To one unac
quainted with the customs whfrh
dictate these names, ridiculous and
and ofteu apparently meaningless titles
seem absurd freaks of fancy. This
they' often are, to be sure, but as fre
quently they have a significance which
I honors the man. if it does not
j designate his family. Ordinarily, how
ever, the appellation he receives is
J obtained at random, and is likely
to be changed any time either
by the wearer or his friends. In
fact, it is ouite the thing for "ii
warrior to change his name after each
exploit, always adopting borne descrip
tive and complimentary title; or per
hapsunfortunately for him in case
of failure in an expedition, cowardice
' or some evidence of weakness, he has
it changed for him bv his friends. All

The old man patted her cold hands,
hands that had labored so hard that
they were seamed and wrinkled and
calloused with years of toil, and the
wedding ring was worn to a mere
thread of gold and then ho preyed

Trunks or Delinijitcnt Guests.
Nearly one hundred old trunks of all
sorts and sizes and covered With labels,
moldy valises in all degrees of corpu
lence or collapse, odd tin boxes tied
with stout cords, hampers and brown
paper parcels were, carried from the
store room of the Continental Hotel tho
other day and piled on the floor of the
auction rooms of Van Tassel & Kearney
in East Thirteenth Strcot They rep"
rcsented part of a year's accumulation
of unpaid hotel bills. A large tin
trunk-shaped box was plainly of foreign
make, and indicated that its owner had
come to America on a venture, and be
fore the end of his first New York hotel
experience had found his purse empty.
He had gone to humbler quarters and
left his trunk "until called for." Some
of the trunks were strongly made and
heavily packed. One or two were of
sole leather, and apparently of high re
spectability. Some of the satchels
looked as if they held no more than a
"dickey'' or collar. Others bulged.
When the auctioneer mounted a large
trunk a little crowd of speculator?
gathered close about him. As the
number of a trunk was called some
would-be purchaser would lift ono end
to take its weight and judge of its prob
able value. The bids were extremely
ood, ranging from one dollar to fifteen
ollars for a trunk, according to its
size, style and weight The valises and
paper parcels were knocked down three
or four at a time, and the buvers.
