    How to M anage a H csband .—
A lady read t he following paragraph in
a paper: “A young wife once cured
her husband of a disposition to absent
himself from home at night by provid­
ing a good dinner, and saying to him
afterward, »George, if you find a
sweeter spot than our home, describe
it to mo, and I will rival it if I die in
the attempt.’ A kiss and a few tears
completed the victory.” This lady
tried the game on her husband, lie
wasn’t melted a bit ; lie merely said,
“When you can get the boys to come
here and smoke cigars and talk poli­
tics, and you set up a keg of lager, you
can count mo in. I like the company
of the boys; I do.” Our lady saw that
sentiment had no effect on him. She
didn’t throw herself on his neck and
hug and wet his paper collar with
tears ; but she took a saucer and fired
it at his head, and followed it with a
cup, and ended by slinging a dish of
strawberries on his shirt l>osom. Since
that time he has been an exemplary
husband. Yet he does seem very
anxious for her to visit her dear moth­
er as often as four or live times a week.

Tlu* funny man of the House last Win­
ter, say* the Washington correspond­
ent of the Cincinnati Commercial, is
said to be Mr. Nesmith, of Oregon,
who tells <»n himself some very amus­
ing »tories. He served one term in
the Senate several years ago, and a

passing one of the cloak rooms, and in­
side was Fessenden, Morrill, and sev­
eral others, whose names we can’t call.
They hailed him, invited Idin in, and
after conversing for a few moments,
they asked him, very abruptly :
“Mr. Nesmith, you have come from
a very wild country, where you «ay
the greater portion of your life has
been passed. Will you tell us what
first struck you on coming to the Sen­
ate ?”
“Well, gentlemen, when I took my
seat in this august body, said to tie

I was overwhelmed with the strange­
ness of the one idea—how I came to be

There was a shout, and from that

had thought to overawe by their pom­

an occasion to tell this story.— Brook­ i

The question is almost daily asked, “What

patient recovers his health. They are the
great blood purifier and a life-giving prin­

of the world has a medicine been com-

The Journal dt Agriculture Pratique
states that among the new machines
which especially attracted the atten­
tion of the agriculturists at the recent
meeting of the Palais de l’industrie,
was a potato-sowing machine, Invent­
ed by M. Couteau, and constructed by
M. Peltier, Jun. By means of an in­
genious contrivance, worked by a gear,
the tubers, previously placed in a box,
are carried successively into a pipe
which opens and shuts automatically,
depositing the seed with perfect regu­
larity in the furrow made by a share
with which the machine is provided. I

A ntidote to P oisoning .—The ex­
periments made by Professor Rinz, of
Bonn, with reference to the effect of
alcohol on animals, are regarded as of
much importance, inasmuch as he
seems to have discovered the reasons
why alcoholic stimulants are so useful
in snake poisoning. lie found that
when decomposed blood was intro­
duced into the veins of the living ani­
mal, all the symptoms of putrid fever
were shown, the temperature increas­
ing until death ensued. Alcohol, it
is stated, reduced the heat and retard­
ed the putrid process, increasing the
action of the heart—precisely the ef­
fect of alcoholic stimulants, it is said,
when administered in case of rattle­
snake poisoning.
A G lass E ye N ever A ffected
by G lasses .—The Danbury News has
this to say:
There is nothing more «»simulating,
more artful, more tainted with duplic­
ity than a glass eye. A Danbury man,
a little given to his cups, and afflicted
with one of those optical deceptions,
drops into see us from time to time,
and invariably when he is tight. To
gaze at the natural eye of that man
and see it drunk at every square inch
of its spheroidity, and then turn to his
glass eye to behold in it the vigor of
youth, the Are of genius and the es­
sence of sobriety, is trying to the
nerves.
