I 1'npcr From "Wood. Tbe discovery of tho value of wood trtnflpcr making is credited to Dr. YhIII, of this city.- About Srty years ago tho doctor visited the laner mill at Vassalboro, and after CkliiK over the machinery sugges !a the feasibility of using wood, and lid why tho manufacturers did I ect a few hales of excelsior from inista, where it was made, and f "Stbc experiment of making-paper Si wood. "It can't be done," 5d the manufacturers. "Have not fnA as much gumption as tho hor-J.lu-hoso nests are made of wood cer?" "Sked tho doctor- Tho rc9ult f tbo conversation was a letter, !le time later, from tho firm's wholesale agents in Boston asking what they wero putting in their pa- . make it so much better than P .. Tf. wnn t.hn wood, then tf had been first used in this way. Kennebec (Me.) Jourmu Colored Man or Nlggar. C H. Taylor, the ex-minister to Liberia is a very aharp, witty fellow, as sbarp as ho is eloquent. Some time ago he was standing at tho luuction talking with an old South erner who had in his time owned 200 or 300 slaves. Said the latter: "Now, Taylor, I am glad to sec you on the right side politically. I do like to see a democratic nigger I beg your pardon; I mean colored man." "That's all right Mr. H ," said m,.,w 'iVnii iust sav 'nitrcer' for when you say it I know you mean 'colored man,' and when you say 'colored man' I know you mean 'nigger.' " A Sunday Thought. There is a divinity that shapes our ends, ' Rongb hew them as wo will. How rapidly the sun is mounting upward and lengthening tho day light. Already it sets one hour and forty minutes later than It did Dec. 16th, and rises an hour and ten minutes earlier than it did January 8th. In a few days the sun, on this latitude, will begin to give us more of his time than ho gives to those south of us, and in the regions far to the north, not favored as wo are by ocean currents to equalize tho tem perature, this sudden prolongation of the sunlight rapidly accumulates heat enough to favor agricultural processes. 'Tis this wonderful pro vision that makes nearly the whole earth an habitation for man, and, accidental as it seems evinces a divine intelligence and convinces the thinker that he, who planted the ear, hears, and, who formed the eye, sees. "The Open Switch'" What a tale of wrecks and ruin, lives lost and bodies bruised and maimed, does the "onen switch" fctand for. It is one of the mosi stupid and utterly groundless causes of railroad accidents that there is. Speaking of tho railroad accident at Oswego the other day, the Hon. A. It. Shipley mentioned tho loco motive lying upside down, and not far away tho open saloon, where the negligent switchman snent tho time he should havo given to his duty, and remarked that the saloon was tho cause of tho accident. Yes, In deed, it is tho saloon that is the "open switch" yes. tho open switch hell and destruction. Cold Hatha. The method of treating tvnhold fever in tho German militarv hos pitals is by cold baths-, says tho Med lcal Record. Out of twenty-ono hundred cases treated before the fever had progressed five days every We recovered. Our. nf ihn anma number treated so at various nerlods wyoneand a half per cent. died. Nineteen thousand treated with all ind3of cold bathimr. less than 8 Pee"- died. Strict coldbathmc j torn the beginning seems to be a lrtalncure.
