It is a common impassion that the tbod for the sick should not be seasoned, and whatever slep may be given it is alotost innocent of this essen- (lad of life. In the milk diet that I recom- Mend in sickness, common salt is used trimly, the milk being boiled mid given hot, and if the patient cannot take the u•;ual quantity in his timid, I have it given ill his drink. This matter is so important that it cannot be repeated too often, or dwelt upon too long. The most marked example ot the worth of common ealt have ever noticed. has been in surricel • e. • dieeotese especially hi open %vomit's. Without a supply of salt the tongue would become broad, pallid, puny, with a tenacious, pasty co the secretioes ar- rested, the eircula ion feeble. the eftbsion at the point of injury serious, with am un- pleasant watery pue, which at last be - Cantles; a mere Patties or ichor. A tew days of a free allowance of salt would change a:1 this, and the patient get alleee - well.\ ese-es-ase A IIINiER-OPPOSED TO PUTTING SO IIVCII WibOD ON THE FIRE.

A story bee just seen the light of the lately deceaseal senibtor Triqneti which is entitled to be tobl without note or coin- ment, and to figure beside some well- known anecdotes of Sir Philip Sydney, the Chevalier Bayard and others who preferred stainless imeor to profit. On the day when the church of the Made - Ilene in Paris was to be inaugurated, the priest was about to bestow his solemn blessing on the beautiful gates which have obtained so much celebrity for Triqueti. Suddenly the priest %vas inter_ rupted. Triqueti stepping forward anel saying to him. - Site I could not see you invoke the divine blee ing on an untin- iehed door. It requires a tew more strokes of the chisel.\ The priest waited, and ler two hours the %vork went on, at the end of which time it was ready for the priest's blessing. Some persons will be apt te think Triqueti's interference at the motnent was something of \a nuisance,\ as any alteration the door required could as well have been done afterwards. It is however, that the sculptor had a true religious feeling in connection with his work, such as would not have been evinced had he acted in the manner sterarested. The merit of the priest, in tvaiting the length of time steted, hard- ly less than that of the artist in keeping him waiting : and it there WWII a congre - gation present. they, too. halve a clatim to honorable mention on the score of pa- tience.

Surbry, who livee about t %%Aye miles front tile city, and 11 ho cultivates at plantation, is a great hunter. For the past year he haul been annoyed by a larg - e panther, and until last Thursday night had beeu unsuccesful in meeting the brute. Ou the Mehl ithied he took his rifle, w tie!) carries thirty-two to the pound, and proceeded to a deer -lick, where he previously erected a platform in a large tree. He climbed up the perch and esconeed himself for a night's watch tor a deer. He heard these animals lk- ing around hi the vieinity, and kept very quiet, waiting their approach. While sitting there. with his good riths well in hand, he was astonishel to See his old enemy -the cougar -glide through the undergrowth and climb into a tree a few paces from his stand. The beast %vas watching for deer too. Raising his gua noiselessly,Surby took aim at the magnif- icent animal, and the report saw him fall a shapeless mass to the ground. Surby lowered himself from his perch, and for- getting all about venison, in his triumpte over the panther, walked up to the dead beast. Suddenly the panther rose into the air with a terrible spring, and lighting on Surby's side, tore all the clothing oil the left side ot his body and limbs.
