In reaching this conclusion Judge Sullivan used the following languaze: The defeadant was a man of unbounded wealth, vossessed of strong animal passion that, trot excessive indulgence, had become unaccustomed to restraint.

Mountaineers predict a chanze of weather when, the air being calm, the Alps covered with perpetual snow seem on a sudden to be nearer | the observer, and the outlines are marked with great distinctness on their azure sky. This same condition of the atmosphere renders distant sounds more audible. There is one redness of the east in the morn- ing that means storm; another that indicates wind. The first is broad, deep and angry; the clouds look like an immense bed of burning coals; the second is soft and more vapory. At the point where the sunis going to rise, and a | few minutes in advance of his coming, there rises straight upward arosy co.umn, like a shaft ot dyed vapor, blending wita and yet partly Separated from the clouds, and the base of which presently comes to glow like the sun egera The day that follows is pretty sure to windy.

It often happens that a | simple remedy is of more value in some casea | than the most skillful treatment, and just at | this time all suggestions which bear the | evidence of worth are interesting and valuable. A communication to the Post Dispatch gives a remedy which the writer Seclnvs ae tried with success in the case of the son of 6ne of the city letter carriers and which is believed to be very effective. It is atleast harmless and there can be no ill results from a teat of its efficacy. The recipe is as follows: Place biack oxide to the depth of half an inch in an ordinary tum- bler and put in enough muriatic acid to form a paste. This mixture should be placed on the floor of the room or, what is even better, under the bed occupied bythe patient. The fumes of the mixture will rise and will be breathed by the sufferer; in thls way the germs ofthe disease will be killed and relief will be afforded in a few hours’ time.
