It is very singular that among al

the one which sutieis most from
diseased eys and fV.mi blindness.

New (tee for hlehen r Fathers.
"According to statistics very
carehilly onmpHed," says a writer
in La Nature, "we throw away
yearly aqnaiitiiy of chicken feathers,
the intrinsic value of which is equal
to the money which we y out for
cotton.'' A startling statement,
but the author considers it true ;
and he proceeds to explain how the
feathers .ire prepared to render
them valuable : The operation is to
cut the plume portions of the feath
ers from the stem, by the means 0''
ordinary liand scissor. 'I ho tor
mer are placed in quantities in a
coarse ha, which, when full, is
closed and subjected to a thorough
k' eading with the hands. At the
end of five minutes, the leathers, it
is staled, become disintegrated and
felted together, forming a down,
perfectly homogeneous and of great
lightness. It is even lighter than
natural eider dawn,- because the
latter contains the ribs of the feath
ers, which give extra weight. Tl e
material thus prepared is vorth,
a lid readily sells in Paris for about
two dollam a pound About 1 b
TrAy ounces of (his down can be
obtained from the leathers of an
ordinary sized ffille; B'lfl this 01
t!ie above valuation is with alwut
20 cents. It is suegested that
through the winter,- the children
might collect all the feathers about
a la nn, and cut the ribs out as we
have stated. By the sprbg-time a
large quantity oi down would be
prepared, which would be disposed
ot to upholsterers, or employed for
domestwse, Ge feathers inay
be treated in a similar manner, and

The chicken doWn 'fe said to
form a beautiful cloth wlien woven
material, a pound arta i half of
down is required. Tlje fabric is
said to be almost iianuttibte, as,
in place of fraying or wearing out
atfvyrihiileems to feit the
tighter. It takes dye readily, and
is thoroughly waterproof. There
seems to be a giKid opportunity
hero far some ingeuius penuji )

the feathers. '

Often illness treated by powerful

system that sleep js never sweet

watchfulness produces the same ef

exercise of the muscular system, or
whisky drinking, or tobacco- chew

quired : A good clean bed; sufficient
exercise to produce weariness, and
pleasant occupation ; good pure air
and not too warm a room ; freedom
from too much care; a clear stom

ance of stimulants.
