CORNER IN QUILLS.
Ono Result of the OompeUUon tor
Vncclno Virus Points.
New York Sun.
"Thoro has boon Ditch a demand for
vaccine virus that seine shrewd fellow
actually getup a corner in quills , "
snid Dr. H. S. Bogort , house physician
of the Eastern Dispensary , EMCI
Market. "Most of the quills used by
physicians nro Austrian quills. These
raised in this country nro not general'
ly largo enough. An ordinary quill
will take four 'points,1 or slips. First
the feather end is cut off ; next the
other end , leaving a tube of the clear ,
hard , transparent , horny part ot the
quill. This is too smooth to retain
the vinjs , so it is scraped at each end
to make it rough. The ends are them
dipped , and the quill is split into tour
slips. They are sold at $10 per hun
dred. Single slips are sold at twenty-
five cents each. As there have boon
more persons vaccinated within the
past six weeks than in the preceding
ton years , the demand for mulls has
raised the price from $11 to $12.50
per gross. A very good substitute for
quills is made from ivory chips. Ono
dealer recently gave an order for 100 ,
of these ivory points. Each ivory
point will vaccinate two persons.
Sometimes glass tubes are used to
dip in the virus ; but they are moro
expensive.
"Tho lirst arrangements for sup-
plyina bovine rirus at wholesale wore
made by Dr. Morton , of Boston , in
1872. The first to adopt it in Now
York was the Now York disdensary.
The next was the h'.istorn dispensary ,
but the board of health got vaccine
virus from H farm at Patterson , N. J.
The virus used in the Eastern dis
pensary comes from my father's farm ,
in Rockland county , , N. Y. About
throe calves a week are used. Each
calf lasts about ono week , and as fast
as ono is cured another is inoculated.
"Tho competition to sell the points
or slips to physicians is so great Homo-
times purchasers ou their way to the
farms are interrupted by vendors who
soil at reduced rates : Some of the
wholesale druggists now. keep vaccine
points constantly on hand to supply
the demand for the bovine virus ,
which is now generally used. At first
the supply was limited ; but since it
has boon found out that there is
money in it , the number that embark
in the business is increasing.
' 'Tho use of bovine virus in Eng
land was not so successful as in this
country. It is assumed that animals
are healthier than men , and that the
bovine virus is loss likely to transmit
disease. I do not know that that as
sumption is founded on any accurate
investigation. There have been Bomo
monographs written questioning the
fact. Statistics show that one-third
of the population of Now York was
treated gratuitously in ono year.
There cannot bo the slightest question
that , since the introduction of vacci
nation , small pox as an epidemic has
disappeared. "

A Now YorV-or , who was waiting at
a railroad junction iit the interior of
the s ate , had his attention attracted
to a young man who was walking up
and down the platform with a re
volver in his hand. As there u oru
no signs of game in the vicinity the
Gothamito halted the young nuin and
asked :
"Why do you flourish a deadly
weapon around in this careless man
ner ! "
"I'm ' going to shoot inysulfl1' was
the prompt reply. "In live minutes
I shall bo a corpse I"
' Anything wrong ? "
"Yes , everything ia wrong. The
girl I woa to marry at U o'clock to
day has given mo the shake. Pre
cisely at a o'clock I shall blow my
brains out ! "
"Now , I wouldn't do that , " coun
selled the other. "Tho market just
now is flat. Wait for a rise. "
"Market market. What market
do you moan ? "
"The market for calf skins , sir. It
hasn't boon so flat for five yeara. If
you have any eye for business you'll
wait for a reaction. Ihoy must ad
vance. Calves ate scarce , the Euro
pean market is abort , and if you'll
hold on for thirty days I'll guarantee
a riao of ten per cent. ! Always do
business in a business manner , young
man. Don't bring your calf skins tea
a flat market. "
The young man sat down to think
it over , and as he was eating a ham
sandwich when the train came along
an hour later ho ia probably waiting
for a better market.

Nearly all the cake produced in the
establishments for the manufacture of
linseed oil in the states this side of
the Mississippi river is exported to
Great Britain , where itn value is moro
highly appreciated than it is here.
The like ia true of the rcsidium of
mills at the aouth , where cotton-seed
oil has boon engaged in , at Omaha and
other places in the far west. The ex
pense of shipping the cake to Liver
pool and Glasgow was so great that it
waa , offered to farmers ana feeders at
somparativoly low rates. During the
paat season they have used it largely ,
ind are well pleased with the result.
Some find that here is economy in
lolling corn and buying oil-cake ,
rhoso who have plenty of means ,
lowovor , uao the corn they raise , and
purchase oil-cake in addition. They
ind it a most desirable food for all
cinds of stock. Farmers who make
luttor mix oil-cako meal with nkinitnod
nilk , and feed it to their calves and
igs. It ia largely fed to cattle and
.hoop intended for the market. With o
ittlo doubt the use of oil-cr.ko will ir
>
eon extend to the great plains. The .
rent difficulty in raising cattle and
heop there consists of the scarcity of
oed at certain seasons of the year ,
'ho past winter was very favorable PEA
stock-raisers in the far west.
uring the previous winter , however ,
ho loss of cattle and sheep was onor-
IIOUB. This might have been pro-
'ontod to a great extent by the use of
oncontrateu food , of which oil-cako
urnishos an excellent example , It

glistening wealth of brow.

of the subject. Mr. Ivirkland is an
artist ot great accuracy of touch , and
BUOWH a genius and aptitude for
catching the true expression in n way
thnt is bound to succeed.
The only thing about the picture ,
however , which is in any way objco-
tionablo is the expression on the face ,
of n settled melancholy , and which , ol
course , the urtist is not to blame for.
Th'ia temporary sadnosH was the result
of our being compelled to look at a
