mo ixtu was eat trout nis mob tn six-
teea days from the time he was wounded.
Th-3 surgeons themstiles were unable to
octiteit, bat the senna fa pis he expei-
enoed assisted materially in tracing ite position. In order to bet'er inal.ruct. them where to find it ho took neither chloroform nor ether. The pain ot cut ting, he says, was as nothing compared with the pain experienced when, haying: found the ball, they extracted it from the bone. The wound was anbscanentl v
I probed for loose bones an 1 lint, but, in
nr. .nantes opinion, nature does tier work better than the physicians, for, after being in tho wound ten years, the wad of lint finally came out to pieces. His wound was looked upon as an almost hopeless one, and his eacupe from do-ith was as surprising to the surgeons as to anyone else. F, A. Barnard, of Denver, Col., formerly a member of tlio Thirty-seventh Wisconsin regiment, was snatched from the jaws of deatli, even after the surgeons had given up all hope, if is story, told in his own words, is us follows : "I was shot," said he, "ia Iroutof Petersburg on the 18th of June, 1SG1, through the liver and lett lobe ol im lungs, the ball entering on the tight side of my body and passing out at the left. In its course through ray liody it perforated the liver and cut the gul bladder, 89 that the bile ran. ont of in side. Vomiting commenced in per liupV ten hours after I was wounded, and cou-
tinned for the next' twenty-four almost
constantly. Alter that the conh'ngsct
in one of the symptoms, as the surgeons consider, which precede death. That lasted perhaps a day longer. All the orgeons who examined me, including the Surgeon of the Ninth jurtnv
ouaps, prououuved tne woivikI mortal,
and insisted for the first ten days that 1 couldn't live. On the moraine of 'the
tenth day there was a change for tlie
better, and from that time forward 1 improved very rapidly. During those first ten days I couldn't retain any nourishment on my stomach scarcely, A very little wine and a little soft cracker were all that I could keen down. I act
ually lived against the judgment of all the Burgeons, and, as I think, because
ot my firm belie mat there was a chance tor me if they would take care of ma. And they took the very best care of mo
that was possible. As Boon as the Corps Surgeon examined me, he gave orders that I shouldn't -be placed' in an ambulance. I was then in the camp hospital,' and when wo moved away X was conveyed on .a stretcher. I lay on one side all the time, without moving, and I attribute, my recovery to the excellent
care A received, the perfect quiet A enjoyed and to the strength, of my will
power. In the bulletin of the New York Path
ologies! Society for January, 1881, the
tatiowing case is recorded,: " lhe patient had died of some other disease, and at the post-mortem examination an iron bullet was found by Dr. H. B. Sands i.t the omentum. It was encyst
ed, and had evidently been there a long ;
tame. It was seated two inches iroiQ the left border of the creat omentum.
and two inches below the great curvfttore of the Btomach. On a more-close :
examination a circular scar was found on the right side of the chest, a well-
mari.ed scar on the pleura, between th e ' eighth and ninth ribs ; another scar on the pleural surface of the diaphramw.
and still another on its lower surfnee, all of the same size and leading in the same direction. There was also another scar on the right lobe of the liver, which
was grooved and farrowed by the pro
jectile. The lung itself had not been injured, for the ball had passed through or rather between the twopleuras, then through, the diaphragm, next between' it and the liver, which it had deeply (grooved or farrowed, and finally lodged
in the' abdomen, without injuring the stomach or intestines, kidneys, or any of
the great blood-vessels. Xhis poor hospital patient had been shot years before in the chest, the ball
agbing one and a half ounces, grazing
the lanes, perforating the diaphragm,
deeply grooving and injuring the liver, and finally was buried in comparativelyunimportant portions of the belly, where it remained for years, the patient
dying subsequently, and long after, of some other disease entirely unconnected
with bis previous injury.
Surgeon General Barnes says: . "J. remember that abent sixty-two cases of recovery- from shot-wounds of the liver during the war came under my observation, and about one-half of these were
.further complicated by lesions of other
organs. At Hatcher s Hun. a boy 19 years of age was shot in the back, the ball passing through the liver and emerging from -the abdomen. I was so interested in -the case that I looked over the pension list to see if ho had applied for a pension, bat his name was not on the list, so it is thought he recovered fully. "Another c tse, which it was thought important enough to be reported in the current medical journals, was that of Brivato Gilbert Smith. Then-, beyond a donbt, the liauon was the most severe. Set, when Smith present! himself to the in.iion examiner, a few years ago, he was reported in good health. Another Smith,, wounded at ftederieksborg, furnishes an additional undoubted instance of recovery from a wound in the liven ' Recoveries from wounds in the liver eannot, however, be looked forward to with certainty; yet, beside the cases which came nader observation during the war, I know of others. In July, 1868, a policeman ws shot through the liver, but four mouths of careful treatment palled' him through. In two cases which occurred at the battle of Suffolk, in 1863, the ball lodged in the liver and was extracted. The patient subsequently recovered. "There are also several cases in which the boll bos lodged in the liver and has remained there. Among other striking cases: of -the ball remataing lodged in the liver was .that of Sergt.-Sni.vely, of the New' York cavalry, who was wounded at Piedmont, Vai, in 1864. Th.baU lodged in the right lobe uol the liver. True, it took- a your of treatment' before he could bo discharged from the hospital, but his recovery was quite complete, i nother s-oldie. was shot i:-i the fiver, fht ball passing through the liver and routining' in tho fissure. It was
irom m jurgo revolver, xnere wns no
auppiiratioiv vomiting, diarrhea or ; ever, .snd the mail recovered. A soldier, Ul yew-s old, was wounded at Clianoelloisville both iu the liver and lung, bra . be recovered, and is as strong as ever. Another curious recovery Irom whit is. perhaps, more difficult to treat thou a
shoe-wound in the liver, was the lodging
m the over of a large bono splint, wnicii was shattered by a bullet, in the ease ol John Oneen. of Pennsylvania. Not onlv
the right lobe of the liver, but a large
branch of the hepatic duct was perlo-mtetL"
SI 0. Hickey, ex-Superintendent of
I'ulioe of Chicago, now carries it Dnuet in his liver, lodged there in 186. The shot was fired by a thief whom he was
about putting under arrest His physicians ifaid he could not live, but in sptto of them he survived tho wound, though he sometimes suffers pain in tho injured organ. In his case jaundice followed ten days after hi. received tho wound, and in twenty days he was convalescent, He thirsted for beer with an uncontrollable craving, and ho believes that tho drinking it was beneficial. Oapt. Henry T: Smith, present Register of Deeds ot Kalamazoo county, while bending over at the Battle of Jonesboro, Go,, was struck by. a ball in the right breast "about half way between the breast bone and front of the armpit, a little below the level of the latter, the ballet cutting through the lower lungs and the liver and coming ont near the spinal column through the "floating ribs," about eight inches lower on the trunk than where it entered. He had his senses for f evenil hours, but thiy gradually left litai, and he was unconscious for several days. The surgeons all said that he would hove to die, and could hardly believe to the contrary for months. It was two months before he could help himself in bed, and the opening mode by the bullet as it came out is still sore to pressure. The nerves injured near the spine ware snob as to give him the. feeling that his hip and right side were shot away. The Captain is in a great measure recovered, though he will never have his old health liack
again.
Realties of War.
Aijopnlar writer thus describes a battle: "We have been fighting at the edge of the woods. A moment ago the battery was a confused' mob. We look again, and the six guns aro in position, the detached horses hurrying away, tho ammunition chests open, and along our lino runs the command, 'Give them one more volley, and fall bock to suppai I the guns.' We have scortwly obtywl when boom! boom! opens the battery, and jots of fire jump down and scorch ! th a preen trees under whioh we fought
and struggled The shattered old lr-
rda has a chance to hrenthe, tor the nrst time in three hours, as we form- a line ' and lie down. What grim, cool fellows three cannoneers -nre! Every man is a perfect machine. Bullets siilosh diif-t in tbeir faces, but they'do not wince. j3nllats sing over and around, they do not dodge. There goes one to the earth, shot through the head as he sponged liis gun. Ihat machinery loses just one boat, misses just one cog in the wboel, and then works away ngaiu as before. Every gun is using a short fuse shell. The ground sliakcs and trembles, the roar shuts out all sound from a bnttleliue three miles long, and the shells go shrieking into the swamp to cut trees short -off, to mow groat gaps in the bushes, to hunt out, and shatter, and mangle men until their corpses cannot be recognizeci as human. You would think a tornndo was howling through the forest, followed by bill o its of fire, aud yet men live through it aye, press forward to", capture the battery. We can hear their shoots as they form for the rush. Now the shells are changed for grap 3 and canister, and t he guns- ore fired so fast that all reports blend into one mighty roar. Tho shriek of a shell is the wickedest sound in war, bat nothing makes the flesh crawl like the demoniac singing, purring, whistling grape shot, ' and the serpent-like hiss of cai.istor. Men'B legs and heads are torn from botties, aud bodies cut in two, A t outid shot or shell takes two men ont of the rank as.it crashes through, (frapo'.aud canister mow a swathe aud pile the dead on top of each other. Through the smoke wo see a swarm of man. It is not a battle, but a mob of men desperate enough to bathe their bayonets in the name of the guns. The guns leap from the ground almost an they are depressed 011 the foe, mid shrinks and screams and shouts blend into 01.0 awful aud steady cry. Twenty ont on the battery are down, and the firkg is interrupted. The foe accept it as a sign of wavering mid come rushiug on. , .They are not ten feet away whuu tlio guns ' give them a last shot. That dischcrgo picks living men off their feet and throws them into a swamp, a blackened, bloody muss. Dp now, as the. enemy are nmong the guns! There is a silence of ton seconds, and then the flash and roar of more thau 3,000 muskets and a rush forward with
bayonets. For what? Neither on the
right nor leit, nor m front of us 13 the living foe! There are corpses around ns which have beau struck by three, four, and even six bullets, and nowhere on this aero of ground is a wounded man! The wheels of tho gun cannot move nutil the blockade of dead is removed. Men cannot -pass from caisson to gun without climbing ovor n:vs of doad. Every gun and -whetil is smeared with blood; every foot of grass has its horrible stain. Historians write of the glory of war. Burial parties saw murder, where historians saw clorv." Storm Signals of Married Life. A marriage, has other uses than those of perpetuating the race. In tl.is great city there are thousands of refined, highstrung, intelligent, appreciative, but lone, desolate souls, for whom it would be an earthly paradiae to rust ever, so little in the' shudo of a really peaceful household. But such peace must be genuine. It must not be any patchedup affair- any show of affection between husband and wifo before, the guest's face and a snarl behind his bock. It's just this lack of harmony between husband and wifo that makes so many households as a tomb to visit. It's a bad sign when the wife's friends ore hustled out of the husband's presence into n not her room. It's a bad sign when tho husband's visitors are not the wife's visitors, and vice versa. It's a bad sign ii matters which interest the wifo do not interest the hns baud, and vice versa. It's a ba l sign when the lord of the manor looks down from his lofty elevation and speaks with a sneer, more br less subdued, of tho " trivialities.. ot. fashion," and deems it beneath him to assist his wife in choosing a dross pattern. Marriage partnership must mean partnership in everything, or there's a social desert for one party or the other to travel over pretty often. We are talking of married life as wo have seen it in tho houses of great and little men ; in tho houses of Judges and Generals, of lawyers and politicians, among whom also both great and little men are to be found. OrapUe. Bayard on the XaUirul Affections. Senator Bayard said a pretty thing and a tine one at an orphan asylum in R.ifimr.n the other dav: " The bast
part of a man's life is in tho world of his
natural anecnons, anu unit reium nas laws of its own that neither know nor heed King, Kaiser nor President, nor Reichs atgs nor CongressBS, and are deaf even to the voices of shouting popular majorities, but heed andolwy rather tho gentle voice of womnn aud tho cry of elpiess and feeble childhood."
THE PRESIDENT.
WAHinjiGTOK, July 15. Each dy 1bo rittsidont'ii condiUou shows tuiy improvement. Tlicro is no roaeon to doubt his oontiuned progress. Bo raised bis bill ot fare yosterda; by eating a roast-beef sandwich half tba sia of his band. Ho said that ho waa beginning to tiro of baby food Ho would have eaieii anothor mndwioh if the doctors had thntulit it best. The leniporaturo of the President's room and of tho once adjoining kept doem to 75 logreos. The Prctidont did not indolce in any despondent talk. Ilo stvmed to realize, more than he has any day this week, his improvoUVMlt Tho nourishment taken by tho President is slightly increased from day to day. When ho can take a fair amount f food without causing fever, or overtasking his weakened KYsteni, a rapid gain in strength may bo looked for. Until then lie must, ot course, remain very weak, bntthe ibatement of hia fever, the diminution of pain and tho favorable changes in other directions indicate that it will not be long before he can take an amount of solid food that will have a marked effect on bid strength. TIki-c is no truth in it e statement published that the doctors in oha -go proposed to see if they could locate the bullet by electric appliances. They are quite oontent to let I ho bullet alone for tbo present, and havo no idea of having tbo I resident worried with experiments of this kine. The Cabinet people are so well satisfied with theProsident's progress that tbev begin to think they will be able tottko their "fitniliea away within the next week or ten dav. Postmaster General .ranioa telegraphed to Now York last night: "Tho President is doing splendidly. Bs is surely out of tho woods." Ex-Senator Conkting called at the White HfuiKft Yiwtardav. He did not. enter, but sent
his card to Mr. Garfield, saying that be knew it would bo impossible for biro to see the Presi
dent, and he did not wish to bother her with an Interview. Ho expressed cordial sympathy and his wishes for the speedy recovery of the President, The flood of false statements abont Gulteau and bis crime bnvo prompted District Attorney Oorkhill to cire to tho rublic an accurate ac
count of bis movements. Gniteau arrived in
Washington March 6 and put up at tho Ebbit House, where ho remained only one day : he
thereafter roomed at vaiious places in the Capi
tal City. On the 18th of Hay ho determined to j
aur j uu ivaiaent, out nuu uut nwuwj eiiu .jyii to buy a pistol. TOwsrdtboendof May he visited O'Jleara'a gun shop in Washington, examined several pistols, and remarked tnat he wanted one of large caliber. Boon after he sucowhI-
oa in r.orrowir f 10 irom a ioo-uenivoieni Washington gentleman. Of this sum ho spent $10 in purclihuuig the piato with which he attempted to kill the President. Having provided himielf with the pistol and with tufticient ammunition, ho ocean to practice with
it, firing at a board and at other marks. On the Sunday of the Pith of Juno he lollowed
tbo President to the Ctnsuan Church with the Intontion of killing him there, bat ho saw that, on making the attempt, he would lie most likely to aboot somebody else beside the President, so he left. Before leaving, however, he noticed that the President 8 it by an open window. Guiteiiu examined this window, and came to tho conclusion that he would shoot the President from it ihrimeb he head on Sunday, tbo 19th of June. Ho
learned, however, that the President was about to loavo for long Blanch with Mrs. Garfield on
Saturday, the ISUi, anil went to uie depot, alter havinc tiracticud with trie revolver that
morning, bis mind iu ly nisdo up to do lbs
deed. Mrs. tisrneia, sue lesnea ou me President's aim at the depot, looked so very tntak and rule, however, that Gulteau savs
be had not the heart to shoot him in her pres
ence, and, feeling that he would nave another opportunity, he left tho dcpoU On Wednesday, the 22d of June, tbo sssiuuun followed the President, who wmt ont riding with bis soa and United States Marshal Henry, but aa the carriage did not stop the Send was foiled that night. On the evening of the 1st of Jnly he followed the President to Secretary Blaine's residence, and then dogged the President and Secretary Bluine as mov wanted Trom me latter s residence to the White House, but got no opportunity to carry ont bin murderous purpose that evening. The following morning after breakfast he went to the Pennsylvania depot, loitered around for a considerable timo, examined his pistol & see t hat all was right, and when the President entered tho ladies' waitingroom, he walked up behind him and fired twt
srrata.
Washivotow, July 1C The President continues to steadily improve.
The. physicians are sanguine that the worst te
passed, that pyemia need not bo f oared, atw tho recovery of the 1'ro.ideut is only a matter of a few weeks, ills appetite is becoming normal, and the increase in strength is the result 01' his diet. Sarr Genural Barnes said this morning that,' t. though tbo attending pbysioians did not feelike throning np their h.i! and saying the Prosidi-nt was ont of danger, they could yet say that he wait practically so, unions unforeseen complications arise, and thenwore no signn of eevb. O110 need only look at the President to bo assured of lii-i continued improvement ," added Dr. Uamus. Dr. Bliss says that the President is abont out of danger, the crisiu may be said to hare passed, and ou the whole he is prottv sale. ' The case progresses nicely." ho couUimed, and every one about the White Hon-e feels aa if hope may welt be bnoyaut." Dr. Beyburu is fqnally hopeful. Dr. Frank U. Handlton, of Sew York, has written to a friend saying that he foels convinced that a mistaken diagnosis waa made in the President's case that tho ball, instead of passing through tho liver was dofloetod downward by striking the eleventh rib, and then lodged in the muscles within the pelvis. Dr. Hamilton's opinions are shared by many eminent surgeons through the country. Tho phviricians havo decided not to try-on the President the Bell electrical instrument for locating the ball. They say that the ball is all right, aud doing very nicely, ni l that there i no reason or necessity of disturbing the President by au cxprrinieat, to locaio it The instrument may bo usel when the President gets woll, but not before. WASHUtOTOlt, Jul' 18. rho President grows belter every day. The i mprovement is so marked that the physicians s-s-y that within three or four days, unlessthere stitlt be a relapse, thay will be willing to aunonn e that he is lieyond danger, an! (hat the members of tin) Cabinet who had made arrangements for vacations can safely leave. Tho pulse, tempon.ture and respiration are AnW more nearly approaching tho normal Mtaiiihtrd. The fever docs not increase dnriug tlie day so much an usual, but tho most encouraging aign of returning strength is tho fact that the President is beginning to eat it might almost be said, to ett heartily, and be enjoys bis food and aasimihitos it Dr. Boynton, in conversation last evening, expressed tbo opinio a that the critical period ban passed, and that, tbo President, although still extremely weali, is now out of danger. Continuing, he said-: " There is no doubt that ho will gain strength daily now, and tlicro is ovcry reason to hope forhii ultimate recovcrv." The following is 1. review of the President's case for tbo two wooks, according to competent medical authority : The . first injury was the ehock and distnrbanse due to the entrance of tho bullet. This blow waa so Severn that the President did not rally, but for so vers I bourn remained hi a state of vital depression, with indications of interna hemorrhage, with temperature high and increased pulse, nausea and great
weakness. During "ho Brat stage the President
waa universally regarded to no a ayine man Satnrdav neht. however, a reaction wag estab
lished, rendered possible. It is supposed, by the stoppage of blrediitg. Ho then entered on the. second stage, and under suob conditions that the physicians felt justified in entertaining faint hopes of his recovery. Tho presences of the discharged blood remaining in the wound now disturbed tho system. There were indications, also, of inflammation of tho peritoneum, as evidenced by tympanitis, a moat dangeious symptom. Tlicro were pains, moreover, in tho legs aud feel, indicating that some of the nerves wore injured. His condition on Sunday was critical, and tho obanco of recovery, although existing, was very alight. By 'Pitcsday, Jnly 5, tbo more alarming symptoms began to disappear. There was loss tympanitis and abdominal tenderness. Tho patient, had survived the immediate dangers of the wound, and would dio, if stall, fmm its aftei effects. Those, as staled, wero secondary hemorrhage, c.Lscess and sloughing, tbo nsual pathological procossos attending gunshot wounds in that region. The restorative operations now be
gan and led to what isonllod tho surgioal fever, which reached its heijht Monday, July 11, Daring Its progress the. phyticians f uoceeded iu fichliug off tbo dangers incident to this stage of recovory, tbo wonnda assuming a healthy chancier, tho patients health and spirits 'being maintained in a comfortable degree, aud the usual necessary operations of nature going ou without interruption. Tho subsidence of the f.-ver, whiloit leaves the patient very weak, marks tho termination of tho most serious stages of the injury, and, as tho President now seems to be ste idily gaimng slrcDgthand no symptoms of local dangers appear, tbo physicians regard him as practically out ot danger. WasmitaTON, July 19. The President had some gastrio trouble on yesterday, and was a little moro feverish than on tho previous day, but tho surgeons tako a hopeful view and express tho opinion that this is only one of the fluctuations of tho fever, and does not indicate any change for tbo worse. They and his unprofessionil trends are already trying to invent some way of getting him to Long Branch, and the doctors nay that it ho keeps 00. improving it trill be practicable next week to tako him by steamer (0 Fortress Monroe, and then, after a few days of rest, to Long Branch whither he is anxious to go, and Mrs. Garfield is quite aa anxious to get away from the Whtto House as ho is. But the surgeons havo found out that the hope that ho waa less sevens; wounded than was at first opposed was ill-founded ; the drainage.' tnbw has been introduced into the wound a distaiico of five and one-half inches, proving that lbs inginal diagnosis waa correct, and thai tho ball did pas through the lower lobe of the liver. DiBtiict Attorney Corkbill yesterday found tbo missing bullet which was fired at tho President, and alxmt which there has been so much search. It appears that a German glazier who tramps around the streets repairing windows went into the dopot to get a $10 bill changed on the morning the President was shot. He was standing in the main room, some forty feet from where the assassin stood, and in a southeast direction. He had commenced to nndrnp his box, in which ho carried glass, and had gotten ono strap off bu shruldcr when he board the noiso of tho pistol, and immediately throe panes of glass in bis box wore shattered. He at 011 co rushed from tho depot, thinking it was no place for safety. Saturi . he was cleaning out his box, aud found the bull iu hia patty, and was narrating the fact to his friends, when one of thorn told him that was the time tne President was shot, and brought turn to the District Attorney's office, when he gavo his statement, and gave up tho ball. He thinks it was the ilrst shot that broke tho glass, but says that they wero co close together that he had not time to get away. WASinxoTox, July SO. The President continues to improve steadily. He ate heartily such food as tbe physicians fell warranted in permitting yesterday. He slept well and re ted well throughout the day and last night. This morning tliore are no traces of julrilc symptoms, which is considered highly fav eirable". Tue President's food vesterda" w mostly of a Uquid character. His breakfast consisted of milk and beef juice. About noou he partook of toast and coffee. His appetite continue good, and be would eat much more if he could get it. Every symptom now is favorable, and the indications point to his complete rccoviry. Dr. Bliss said last evening: " Ho the President is certainly going to get weU." WasmsoTov, July 21. The President's condition is every way satisfactory. Yesterday was deideidly the best day ho ban passed since the assassin shot him. His pulse u J lei 8i -tho Invert point since the sUoo::jjt;. lie too'-e a little morn than the usual I ipiiil nourishment, bnt has not been all'jwud to tike solid food, except toast, tibiee last Mondav, on account of tho gastric dMurbances which occurred that tlay. llis afternoon fever was very light yesterday, am) quickly abated. His condition this morning ia highly favorable. Tbo physicians and all the attendants at the Whito House think that the turn in the long lane habeen reached. HUH, tho doctors decline affiedaU to sfcttc that they ro?ard tho President out of dancer. The President has lout about thirty pounds since tbe attempt on his life. A t-irjo force of men is r.uttiiiK tho steamer Tallapootii. in order, aud it is bouer that the President can take a sea trip by Aug. 15.

It is they who are always looking for their misiiiug knives, ana are conbtantly wondering where their hats and umbrellas hav'. gone to. The money they pr.,t into their pocket-books, or tho peieket-books ilmy put in to tuck pockets, mysteriously disappear. Even when they ttesire to be putdent, and, with eonsiderablesuerifice and pnius, buy their potatoes, their coal and other stores in advance at reduced rat 15, the prices of the succeeding winter uivnriahly fall below what they have paid, ''hoy are to be dreaded as Jonah was readed.

A well-known New York architect was urged liy a person who was interested in a certiiiu monument project of largo pretensions t make a design for it. He objected. When further urged to name a sum ho replied: "Well, I'll make you a design for $1,1100." b ' Isn't that a trifle steep?" said tho iuvitor. I elon'tehnrge $1,000 for merely making the tlcsign," answered the architect, adding, "any mim who makes a design for an American monumental committee is a fool, and n heu I deliberately make a fool, of myself, I want at least 1,000 for it" A ciiosK observer claims to have disproved tho Btory about an owl wringing its head off by looking at a man who wan walking mound it, He writes Unit he phtceel an owl on a post, and began tei walk rapidly around it The large round eyes followed him tiiremirh t-hrex' circle", and ho began to womler why tho head ehdn't drop off, when ho discovered that the neck had a fly-back motion which, when the bend hael beien turned half way around, whiskeel it back through the circle, anel brought the gnsw ngftin upon him with mtch pretdsiem unci so quickly that the movement had tliree tin es escnped his notice.

Take ont of the pan with a skimmer, and slide into a bowl of hdt water while you make and butter your toast.

If this is well and neatly done it is appetizing for a sick person. Dit, Femx I. OawAH) makes an eloquent plen, in an article published in tho Popular Hcicnee Monthly, for the advantages of physical exercise as a preventive of and euro for Ixxlily ailments. Ho urges it as the proper remedy, ouring the symptoms by removing the cause, for some of tlie besetting vices of youth, which he ascribes to an excess of potential energy for which our sedentary mode of life provides no outlet. He nrges, also, that iu largo eitias pur ants owe their cliilelie 1 a r.nidon for a frequent opportunity of active exercise, just as they owe them an autiiieptic diet in a malarious climate. - - If a person should cab his dinner today at 12 o'clock, to-morrow at 2 and' the next day at 3, and eontinue in this irregular manner for a couple of weeks, his nervous system would be apt to become entirely deranged, for the reason that tho individual has prevented this natural tendency of the nerves to have a fixed and periodic time to demand the food, and, as a consequenoo from such irregularity, indigestion is the result, and, on account of the iutimato connection of the nerves and the brain, a very serious and detrimental effect upon tlie latter is produced, causing mental inactivity and loss of memory. But, on the other hand, if we should eat our dinner today at 12, and to-morrow and the next day at the same hour, we will find that this periodicity hits been established, and. tlie little messengers, the nerves, will wurn us exactly at 12 :hnt our regular period has arrived. It therefore follows that if we comply with that request every day promptly we Ind good digestion, quiet nerves, better memory and a more active mind to be the result. Constipation. Halt Journal oj Health thinks it doubtful it consumption, numbers m nuuty victims as are stricken down by the various diseases that result from habitual constipation. True consumption is vu inherited disease. It may remain always dormant, but when aroused to action, decay commences at a point cireiumscribed, and gradually extends, unless arrested, until so much of the lungs uecoine involved that vital action ceases. The evita of constipation result from inattention to tho calls of nature, and usually commeuco with children vhose habits are not closely looked to by their parents. The processes of nature are always active while life lasts. When effete matter is retained a moment beyond the time its expulsion is demanded, the system commences its effort! to ge. rid of it When the natural egretts is checked, the absorbents carry the more-fluid portions of the poisonous mass into the circulation, and it liecomes .iiffusel throughout the body. The more-solid or clay-like portion is forced into the lower rectum, where it becomes firmly impacted, thtts cutting off the circulation of the small blood vessels, causing painful engorgements known as pilea or hemorrhoids. A continuance of the troubles often results in fissure, fistula or cancer. The trouble is seldom confined hero. As a result of tho blood poisoning wo invariably find moro or les. dyspepsia, with decide! denvngeanents of the functions of tho heart, liver and kidneys, accompanied by headache and nervous debility, often verging on paralysis.

"Old Bill Durable, you know, is ft mighty straight up aud down reltgioiA man, and he heerd it told as how Lew got on a regular brazoo every week or so, and raised thunder. Well, tho old man told Lew that he .was a tare in tho wheat field, and if he did not keep away from his darter 'Lizo, somebody would get fanned out with a sapbV. Lew had sense enough to know that tba old man was in earnest, and he kept outen bis sight, but at night he would climb up on the board fence in front of the house, and hoot like a horned owl, 'Liza Dumblo as soon as she heard the signal would creep out w here he was, said both of 'em would sit down behind a priokly pear bush and talk about how they were gwine to do after they were married. Tho old folks didn't suspect anything until one night when it was so dork a black oat looked liko a snow bank. Lew got on the fence anil began to hoot 'Lize was sick and ootildn t como out. Low he jest kept 011 hooting, and n hooting until old Bill Durable heard the noise, and it sounded so nateral that he hunched his wifo aud said: 'Salrey, thnr's on owl Hooting, and I'll bet he's ther same onery cut what hns been eating ther young turkej-s hatched lost week.' His wife told him to get up and tako his gun and kill tho owl, or they wouldn't have nary a ohioken or a turkey about the ranohe. Old mnn Dnmblo loaded his gun with small shot and climbed ovor tho back fence so as to circle around aud get on the off side of tha owl. About that time, Lew Wallace was squatted oa tho fence with, the rear part of himself pointed square at Dumblo, who, being powerful nnar-sightcd, got down on his hands and knees aad crawled up until he got a glimpse of the bulk on the fence. Just then Low h Kited Hoo-ah! hoo-ahl hoo-ahl' ami as he did so old Humble raised tho gun aud fired.
