vacation season has its failures as well as its successes The Spectator strives to explain why pleasure seekers who strive hard to enjoy the summer holiday sometimes exhaust themselves in futile attempts to find genuine en- - joyment It lays stress upon the mis ¬ take of confounding rest with recreation since while it forms a con- siderable ¬ part of a well spent holiday it knot the whole of it Nothing marks really tends so much to the resting of the energies which have been over used a the bringing into play of those which have been inactive or suppressed It maintains that in order to have recreation one must not only discontinue his usual routine but also find something to do which will awaken a new sense of power distinct from that which ordinary vocation r starch or of awakens Precisely as a mathema tician employed his holiday in writing Alice in Wonderland one must re- fresh ¬ himself during the vacation season by exerting dormant faculties or disused powers which receive no stimulus in lifes ordinary routine The obvious criticism upon this spe- cial ¬ regimen for recreation is that it can only be recommended for men of marked intellectual force The effect of mental elasticity and freshness is produced by unaccustomed intellectual exercise very much as one set ot muscles is relieved by the action of an- other ¬ But the world is largely made up of busy overstrained practical peo- ple ¬ who have no favorite studies to re ¬ vive no scientific tastes to gratify no intellectual pleasures to pursue It would be as absurd for them to under ¬ take any unwonted literary tasks in quest of recreaton as it would be for jaded clergymen wearied out by a long season of parish activity to apply themselves to laborious farm work in the hope of getting thoroughly rested Professor Tyndall may find both rest and recreation in dropping his scientif ic studies for a season and writing a review on a theological work but sus- tained ¬ intellectual effort after an active year of business or professional labor will ordinarily exhaust both the tired body and the weary brain Even if the mind could be refreshed by the revival of former studies or the awakening of new inter- ests ¬ recreation would be obtained at the expense of rest which alter all constitutes the essence of an invigor- ating ¬ vacation The common mistake that is made is in allowing ordinary occupations to absorb so much time and energy as to exclude everything else from ones thoughts Theinan incapable of think ¬ ing of anything except his business or his profession can not make the best use of a vacation since he has few if any interests outside of his daily rou- tine ¬ Like Issachar couching between the burdens of his business life he see3 that rest is good bus he has bowed his shoulder to bear and become a ser- vant ¬ unto tribute The iron of ordi ¬ nary routine has entered into his soul The machine can scarcely stop running duiinzthe vacation season The mind is preoccupied with business projects or harassed with domestic cares There may be peace and quiet for the tired body and the overstrained nerves there is no real change of thought along with the change of scene fle may be satisfied to return to his busi- ness ¬ with a sense of being thoroughly rested and in that case his vacation will be accounted a success But if the season has passed in a dull methodical way almost as fatiguing as his worka- day ¬ life he will go back to work with a jaded and hopeless feeling that he is not nil ior anyuung uxuupt nuru worK Is there anything that tends to make a man more discontented and forlorn than the feeling that he has tried hard to enjoy himself and has made a signal failure of it It seems to imply that the mind has not sufficient elasticity to react under favorable physical condi- tions ¬ To return after a vacation with depressed spirits and a of intellectual debility involves a hu- miliating ¬ confession ot lack of capacity for recreation How different is the result if habits of relaxation are formed during the working year Let the tension of daily business be relieved every day by a change of pursuit an hour of reading or study the cultivation of special tastes the awakening of new interests and the annual vacation will not find even the busiest man without resources for recreation as exhilarating to his mind as the rest is invigorating to his body The professional man who works in his own garden an hour or two a day and interests himself in everything that grows will be happy in the quietest farm village during Au ¬ gust for he will dwell among flowers and birds in the wholesome compan- ionship ¬ of woods and fields an intelli ¬ gent ooserver trained to comprehend the manifold pleasures of rural surroundings Put -- the over worked salesman who occupies his leisure through the 3ear in making a close study of trees and native woods in Central Park for a single fortnight in the Adirondack and how keen will be his pleasure in roaming through thicket and forest Let the artistic senses be trained by freauent visits to picture galleries or by familiarity with good engravings of landscapes and the summers vacation will promote a de- velopment ¬ of the finer senses the eye will easily reflect the clearness ot the sky and contact with mountains or ocean will awaken inspiring thoughts Best can not do more for the body than recreation can do for the mind when habits of relaxation are already formed and the narrowness of proies s onai or business occupation has dis ¬ appeared N T Tribune HOG DISEASES Common Sense Directions For the Cure of Many Serious Ailments There are a great many other dis ¬ eases beside the contagious ones with which hogs arc affected which call now and then for a victim Among these are rheuioat sin of the lungs apoplexy wormain the kidneys stag- gers ¬ constipation piles and nearly all of the disorders incident to the human family including measles and mange All of these disorders as well as those which become epidemic may be made less by good care and the mo3t excel- lent ¬ lemedy The bestof authorities are not agreed as to the cause of the swine plague or exactly how it spreads They are equally at fault for a remedy The best that can be done is to disinfect the pens troughs and everything connect- ed ¬ with the diseased hogs and to bury or burn the dead and to remove the sick ones as fast as they become affect- ed ¬ from the well ones The best ¬ is a solution of carbolic acid twenty parts of water to one of the acid and when diluted on hiad red parSs of i8r water to onu of acid it ay safely b mixed with their drink and it is said to have a good eflect Some feed cop x peras and others saltpeter but the treatment with carbolic acid is the best and most effectual Some hog men are sure that nothing will prevent cholera so they keep on in the same old way and take the chances It stands to reason that filthy water such as the troughs contain full of bacteria and decomposed vegetable matter and the excrement of the swine putrid and dissolved in it is not whole- some ¬ drink and will help to lay a foundation for disease it not bring it on It would certainly cause disease among people and why not with hogs It will there is no doubt of it A clean field with fresh and pure water must be a safer condition anyway it will help clear a mans conscience In all cases of dysentery medicine must be given to clear out the stomach and to reduce the inflammation- - To this end phvsics are sfiyen and mu cilaginous drinks such as flaxseed tea slippery elm ailecocton but consciousness inflammation prevention dis- infectant comfrey roots Laudanum is excellent internally After the physc has cleansed the stomach and by inections with starch light succulent food should always be given to sick hogs and one of the best is oat meal gruel thin enough to be drank The gruel can be made from oats ground in the common grist mills and the hulls sifted out or the oats may be boiled and mashed and the liquid drawn off The last way would do in the absence of ground oats Raw linseed oil is the best ani- mal ¬ physic - j A wet cold bed will bring on rheu ¬ matism or it may cause chillrng whch would be likely to cause internal de- rangements ¬ When too many hogs sleep in the same nest they will pile upon each other and those underneath will Tjscome very hot and when they go out into the cold they are likely to cool off suddenly and catch cold These are the conditions which producquin zey and inflammation of the lungs which is a more common disease than many are aware of A favorite sow last winter was left in the barn yard several hours on a cold day and the result of this exposure was an acute attack of inflammation of the lungs It came on the same night and the next morning she refused to get up and her skin and extremities were cold She did not eat a mouthful for three days and then only took a little diink for several more The foil owing vreat ment saved her She was bathed and rubbed wth hot water for hours with hot bricks all along her body and on top of her After warmth and circu- lation ¬ were brought to the surface she was covered with woolen blankets and the hot bricks kept about her for fully twenty four hours This sow breathed with difficulty and would have died in a short time butfor this prompt and thorough treatment It is always dahgerous to cause a hog to run especially if it is in a fleshy condition I have known them to drop down dead whsn hurried Swine Tire sometimes stricken with paralysis of the

by worms In their kidneys The s3Tnptoms in both cases would be the same Rubbing with hot wa- ter ¬ and steaming across the kidneys will help the stram and do no hurt but ratherjrelieve the soreness in the kidneys Spirits of turpentine rubbed across the back may relieve this trouble but in most cases it is nec- essary ¬ to give doses of a tablespoonful of turpentine every other day until the pig is belter The turpentine is rapidly absorbed in the stomach and carried to the kidneys and destroy the worms Measles is an infectious disease and will run its course At the first symp- toms ¬ red blqtches the hog shoulcf be put in a warm place and fed laxative slops Carbolic acid diluted fifteen times its bulk with water will kill the mange It should be rubbed on two or three times with a week in- tervening ¬ and afterward an oint ¬ ment of lard and fine sulphur smeared over the mangy places In an old case of mange all the old dead skin should be removed and the diseased I parts thoroughly laid bare or the in sects wdl not be reached by tbe wash No matter how raw the flesh is the ap- plication ¬ of the acid solution must be thorough The ointment will help to heal and lessen the pain by coating the surface While the list of diseases to which hogs are subject is somewhat formid- able ¬ the actual number with which they may be afflicted is quite limited where they receive anything Kke good care More precautions must always be taken when large numbers of people live in close quarters and thesamo law holds good with animals more dseascs must be expected and greater fatality The opportunity for obtain- ing ¬ antidotes is not so great with num- bers ¬ as whero a few are kept And the numbers tend to pollute the at- mosphere ¬ and all of the surroundings It is best to keep hogs in as small lots as possible and to furnish them with dry beds and not too warm especially if they are to be exposed to the cold when fed Cor Vounlry Gentleman --- -i indispensable Farm Requirements

Times VAINGLORY Lb Egotistical Trait Which Heads to Hatred Jealousy and Shame It is difficult to judge of vanity or vainglory how far it is blameworthy for perhaps if any one knew he wai vain then he would not be so A phil ¬ osopher said that if a man should sud- denly ¬ believe he was moral he would be moral But the strength of moral- ity ¬ is in this that no one can believe he is doing well when defying the law3 of nature So perhaps it is impossible that one should be vainglorious if he knew that he was so Therefore it is difficult to judge of ones self as to whether one be puffed up or not But contrariwise is it not a sign of con- scious ¬ complacency lurking in ourselves to suspect or accuse others of beinsr flushed If we are not acquainted with vanity how should we know it so readily and why feel it if it did not seem to dispute our own self esteem -- We must examine narrowly whv con ceit is a so to usj for r under intended for it may De tnac tne sen esteem ot an other offends because it flaunts a rival and disquiets our self praise as La Rochefoucauld avers that it is our own vanity thatmakes the vanity of others intolerable Hence it has been said well that slander and evil speaking came forth much more from vanity than from malice for we giro credence and currency to an ill trait or bad report not maliciously to do an- other ¬ harm but from vainglory to support our own conceit of ourselves and show up our claim of superiority Vainglory is ridiculous for it is then a question with what a man compares himself With a low standard But he is not made a mountain because hs measure is a mole hilL Or with a high standard Then certainly he will not vaunt Irmself Or if he be among the verr great and grand spirits who might boast of themselves if any might but who always are those Who do not then nust he compare himself with thevast ness of knowledge and with the ¬ of the earth and of the heavens But to himself then he will seem to sink into these as if lost or dissolved or disappearing in their glory -- and when he remembers himself it will be only to be humbled and quelled To bo vain of our own faculty is as fool sh as to be conceited over another mans work for as no man made him ¬ self it is not what he is but only what ho does with his material that can be praise to him and even over this ho must be humble in proportion as God has dealt hni a fine tool with whch to work Humility dignity and grateful- ness ¬ arc three virtues tliat go close to- gether ¬ and they frequent the cave of sdencc Much speaking and especial- ly ¬ eager speaKing is like to be conceited speaking For when wisdom forces utterance there can not be high flown words nor a swelling manner But if the object be to display parts and set off wit speech will eagerly forestall and engross It is a common remark that vanty stands in the way of learning no man will seek anything more or better if he is satisfied with what he is But it is a deeper thought touching our lives more nearly that vanity distorts ex- perience ¬ for some emotions it fends oft and others it invites too often or inten ¬ sifies It keeps away or weakens fear of which there is a worthy and useful and love and hope For an una ¬ bashed and forward man will not be humble enough to fear nor self-forg- et ful enough to love nor devout enough to hope But vanty opens the way to hatred to jealousy to shame and puts an especial sting in them For the con- sequential ¬ will make great account of any hurt that is done them and says La The reason why the pangs of shame and jealous are so sharp is this vanity gives us no aidin supporting them Also he says The most violent passions have their intermissions but vanity gives us no respite emotions which aro great disturbers of the mind at least are not perpetual but leave us as it were breathing -- space in which the mind girds itself anew But vanity is always agitating us and leaves us no moments free from its distortion of our vision Egotism is sometimes an in which one is proof against the pangs of self distrust and of the sense of short coming But it has very great pains of its own for it meets contin- ually ¬ with great shocks and there is nothing to mitigate its pain since by its nature it stands alone and unsup- ported ¬ The worst vanity is that which never makes any pretense or tries to display any parts but angrily or sulkily expects attention or gifts without even the pains to appear to de- serve ¬ them This is an egotism that is offended when any one else is honored There are some who never work but make huge claim to attention for what they are and are angry if people do not bow to them because they might do great things if they would To be always comparing ourselves with with others is the most insidious van ity Finally vainglorious persons will always fail of true honor because they bestow it themselves All decora ton must como from others Humil- ity ¬ waits to receive the reward it others give it and therefore if crowned is securely crowned both by authority and with concurrent good will There- fore ¬ the honor is real St Louis GlobkDemocrat Interesting to Antiquarians An antiquarian discovery was

that cases of severe illness sometimes follow the eating of cheese In the United States and in some parts of Germany such instances are of frequent occurrence We hear of similar cases too in England and though less often in France Among American dairymen cheese that pro- duces ¬ such effects is known as sick cheese Formerly this article was be ¬ lieved to be confined wholly to cheeses made in small quantities on farms Some years ago however the reputa- tion ¬ of a large cheese factory in Ohio was destroyed through the large num ¬ ber of cases of alarming illness arising from eating of its product and more recently cheese poisoning became so common as to excite alarm among dairymen Finally so many persons were poisoned last year in the State of Michigan by cheese made in one of it3 largest factories and by a thoroughly experienced maker that it was decided to enter upon a search for the mysteri- ous ¬ substance which was causing all the tr uble This work was under- taken ¬ by Prof V C Vaughan who lately presented a report of his investi- gation ¬ to the Michigan State Board of Health The samples of cheese examined had no peculiarities of appearance odor or taste by which they could bo distnguished from those of good cheese Of two pieces one poison- ous ¬ and the other wholesome a dog or cat would choose the good cheese but the Professor thinks this is due to n acuteness of the sense of smell ot possessed by man The animals are not affected by eating the cheese Possibly if a person tasted a cheese knowing that it was posonous ho might detect a sharpness of taste winch would not ordinarily be no- ticed ¬ But there is no certain means aside from a chemical examination by which a poisonous cheese can be dis- tinguished ¬ from a wholesome one The most trustworthy ready method of examination is to press a strip of blue litmus paper against a freshly cut surface of the cheese If the pa- per ¬ is reddened instantly and intense- ly ¬ the cheeso may be regarded with suspicion When treated in this way any green cheese wdl redden tho litmus paper but ordinarily the red- dening ¬ will be produced slowly and will be slight If the piece of cheese be dry it should be rubbed up with an equal volume of water and the paper should thon be dipped in the water Dr Vaughan thinks that groecrymen should apply this test to every fresh cheese After a long and determined hunt the Professor succeeded in isolating the poison which will now pass into chem- ical ¬ science under the name of tyrotox icon It is found to be a product of imperfect putrefaction in the cheese and it occurs in the manufacturing vat for the curd itself has been known to poison persons Tyrotoxicon appears in the form of needle shaped crystals which are freely soluble in water Tho smallest visible fragments of a crystal placed upon the tongue caused a sharpP stinging pain and in a few minutes dryness and constriction of the throat A slightly larger amount produced vomiting nausea and diarrhoea The isolated poison has a sharp pungent odor but in the cheese the taste and odor of the poison are both modified beyond recognition The poison is volatile and oven poisonous cheeso may be eaten after it is cooked The svmntoms observed in chessey j poisoning are similar to those caused by tyrotoxicon with the addition of headache double vision and marked nervou3
