The Committee on Ezplosivea made a re- port through the Chairman. Torpedo John- aon, which atartled even tiia 'oldest mem- bars. The committee had been asked to investigato and report en the query " Sup- pose that 100 pounds of nitro-glyoerine was exploded under Paradlae Hall What would bethcfiff'c^?" Tne report stated tuat, after a series cf careful expariments on .boxes, barrels and wood sheds, the committee had come to the conclnsion that â€" 1. The hall would ba lifted 200 feet into the air. 2. In striking the earth again the jar would knock down every stove-pipe, amaah moat of the relica in the muaeum, ana ahake off at least firty yarda of plaaterbag. 3. Tbe President acd other offioera occupy- ing the center of the hall would be Inatant- ly kUled. 4. Giveadam Jones, Samuel Shin, Shin- dig Watkina and the Hon. Cabiff would be blown into Canada and probably more or less irjired. 5 Every almanac in the library would be totally destroyed, the new two-ahUling water pail blown to atoma and serious doubts ex Utod if the lamp chimney would bear the strain. Several members startod for the door be- fore the report was fairly ended, but the President rapped in a vigorous manner and calle(^ out "Ebery one o' yoa' uns sot dovmJ De fust man who tries to evade bein' blown up by 100 pounds of nitro-glyoerine will re- ceive mort^ injuries from another sanroa I Da report am 'oepted an' 'dopted.

When you ask him to go up stairs for your portemonnaie, toll him it is either on the table, or in the further corner of the left- hand side of the upper bureau drawer, or in the pocket of your brown dress in the closet. He will have no trouble in finding it â€" if you can tell him jnst where it is, aspeoially the pooket. Don't aak him where he has been the mo- ment he enters the house, or where he is going if he starto out for a walk before breakfast. It nettles him, and men hate to have such pointed questions sprang upon them. Besides that, we live under a free flag. f Djn't ask him to walk the floor with the baby half the night. A man who tramps indnstriou-ly around the billiard table throe nighto in the week or buys an admission ticket to the opera can't be expeotod to be on duty at home the other three nighto.

Galtl- vato the daum yourselfâ€" ostensibly â€" when your husband is not around, and mattors will asaune a different aspect. Don't put pins in year curl papera or let yonr crimping pins dangle on yonr forehead. They are abominations and feminine imple- ments of warfare that men despise.

Don't indulge in flighto of tamper when yonr husband saggeats how his mother did.

NOT AI^^WAYS NECESSARY TO SEE PATIENTS. By our original system of diagnosis, we can treat many chronio disuses just as successfully without as with a personal con- sultation. While we ate always glad to see our patients, and become acquainted with them, show them our institutions, and familiarize them with our system of treatment, yet we have not seen one person in five hundred whom we have cured. The per- fect accuracy with which scientists are enabled to deduce the most minute particulars In their several departments, appears almost miraculous, if we view it in the Ugiit of the early ages. Take for example, the electro-magnetic telegraph, the greatest invention of the age. Is it not a marvelous degree of accuracy which enables an operator to exactly locate a fracture in a sub- marine cable nearly three thousand miles long? Our venerable " clerk of the weather " has lecome so thoroughly familiar with the most wayward elements of nature that he can accurately predict their movements. He can sit in Washington and foretell what the weather will bo in Florida or New York as well as if several hundred miles did not intervene between him and the places named. And so in all departments of modem science, what is required is the knowledge of certain 8(0718. From these scientists leduoe accurate con- clusions regardless of distance. So, also, iu medi- cal science, diseases have c?rtain unmistakable signs, or symptoms, and by re ason of this fact, we have been enabled to originate and perfect a sys- â- tem of determining, with the greatest accuracy, the nature of chronic diseases^ without seeing and personally ezaminhisr our Mtlents. In recognizing diseases without 1 personal examination of the patient, we claim to cosBew nJ miraculous powers. We obtain our knowledge of the dShS disease by the practical application, to tbe practice of iS cine, of well-established principles of modern science, jbdii is to the accuracy with which this system has endowed ustte we owe our almost world-wide reputation of skillfully traaJ lingering or chronic affections. This system of praeticeiS the marvelous success which has been atM thnough it, demonstrate the fact that cten display certain phenomena, which, being mii. jected to scientific analysis, furnish abundu and unmistakable data, to guide tbe judmot of the skillful practitioner aright in detenniniar the nature of diseased conditions. The most ample rmm for treating lingerinf or chronic diseases, and the greatta skt are thus placed within the easy reach of every invalid, howna distant he or she may reside from the jphygicians making the tm. ment of such affections a specialty.
