I found the loveliest spot on earth. Where sweet and odorous blooms had birth; I clapped my hands for very gladness: “ Good-by,” I said, ”to ills and sadness,” When 10, there sprung from out the green A hideous imp upon the scene! I cned, •* Dread form, what is your name?" In mocking tones, the answer camo—- “ Malarial” I fled unto the nearest town: Here I resolved to settle down, 'Mid dirt and grime, ’mid dust and mortar— Myself, my wife, my son and daughter. The people crept about like snails, Or lagging ships bereft of sails. “ What is the matter here?” I cried, And many a trembling voice replied— From out the fated town we sped: We climbed the mountains; overhead, Where ths proud eagle builds her nest, We pitched our tent to take our rest. One morning, bright with eastern gold, I woke, and cried, “ I’m hot;” “ I’m cold:" I burn;” “ I freeze." “ What can it be?" The answer came from crag and tree—- “ Malaria!” The doctors, now, who lack the skill , To diagnose each pain and ill, ‘ To this one thing they all agree, No matter what their school may be: With “ Hem!” and “ Haw!” and look profound, Your tongue they scan, your lungs they sound. And then exclaim, “My friends, tut! tut! Your case, I find, is nothing I’ve chartered now a big balloon; I hope to occupy it soon. If “it ” comes there to ache my bones And waste my flesh, when 'neath the stones, J hope my better part may soar To some fair land, some golden shore, Where I may never hear the cry, That haunts me like a ghostly sigh—- “ Malaria!” —Mn.

ONLY ONE FAULT.

You may wic it in Greenwood cemetery. A splendid tombstone with a woman’s name upon it. Not Ruth Holly —though that is the name under which you shall know her—but a prouder name, and one you may have heard. Flowers grow about her tomb, and the turf lies softly over it. You would scarcely guess her life and its sad end ns you stood there. Rather would you' fancy that love and tenderness surrounded one Over whom such piles of sculptured marble rears itself from her birth unto her death. It is a story such as I seldom write—this life of hers—one that can not be ended by haripy reunions and the sweet sound of marriage bells; but there are too many such stories in the world to be quietly passed over, haply there be any warning in them. The lives of others are, if we read them rightly, the best sermons ever preached, and this of Ruth Holly’s is only too true. Yet it began very sweetly, like some old pastoral poem. She loved and was beloved again, and the man she loved had only one fault. He was young, he was brave, he was witty, he was handsome, he was generous; his love was devotion, his friendship no lukewarm thing of words; he had great talent and great power. His eloquence had thrilled many an audience worth the thrilling. What he wrote touched the soul to the very quick. He was an amateur painter and musician find everywhere was loved and honored and admired. He had only one fault in the world —he drank too much wine at times. When he did so he turned, so said convivial friends, into a very demigod. It was wrong, but not so bad as might have been, and he would sow his wild oats some day, they said, loving him as his friends all loved him; and so Ruth thought. Sweet, loving, beautiful Ruth,,to whom he had plighted his troth and wooed in verse and song and with his most eloquent eyes long before he put his passion into words; but so did not think Ruth Holly’s father. This one fault of Edward Holly’s overshadowed his virtue in his eyes, and he refused him his daughter’s hand, giving him the reason why plainly and not kindly.

‘"You’ll be a drunkard yet, Ned Holly,” said the old man, shaking his head, earnestly. “I’ve seen men of genius go the same road before. I’ve often said I’d rather have no talent in my family, since it seems to lead so surely to dissipation. My sons are not too brilliant to bje sober men, thank heaven, and as for my daughter, only a sober man shall have her for a wife; you’d break her heart, Ned Holly.” So the dashing man of letters felt himself insulted and retorted hotly, and the two were enemies. Ruth suffered bitterly. She loved her father, and she loved Edward. To disobey her parent, or to break her lover’s heart, seemed the only choice offered her. She bad other lovers, she had seen much society, and had been introduced to the highest circles in France as well as in England, but amongst all the men she Lad known none pleased her as Edward Holly did. Not what one styles an intellectual woman herself, she reverenced intellect, and her affections were intense. The struggle iu her heart was terrible. She met with her lover by stealth, against her father’s will, but for a long while she resented his entreaties to marry him in defiance of her father’s refusal. At last, angered by her persistence in obedience, Edward accused her of fearing to share the fortunes of one comparatively poor—one who must carve his own way up life’s steep hill without assistance. The unmerited reproach sunk deeply into her warm heart, and in a sudden impulse of tenderness and sympathy she gave him the promise he had so long sought in vain. They were married that evening, and before morning were upon their way to a faroff city, where Edward, sanguine and conscious of power, believed ’ that he should make for himself a name and position of which any woman might be proud. To her father Ruth wrote a long letter, imploring his forgiveness, but the answer crushed all hope within her bosom.

“As you now sow, so must you reap,” were the words her father wrote. “I have no longer a daughter,” and Ruth knew that henceforth (for she had been motherless for years) she had in all the world only the husband for whom she had sacrificed fortune, and what is worth far more, the tender protection of a father. In those early days Edward did his best to make amends for all, and she was so proud of him and so fond of him that she soon forgot to grieve. She heard his name uttered in praise by all. She knew that he had but to keep steadily on, to mount to the proudest seat in fame’s high temple, and for a year she had no fear of his faltering. Now and then a feverish something in his voice and manner, a strange light in his eyes, a, greater flow of eloquence in his talk, a more passionate demonstration of love for her than usual, told that he was under the influence of wine, but the fact only seemed to enhance his power of fascination. Never was he so brilliant, never so handsome. Almost could Ruth have laughed at the sermons preached by the temperance folks of the harm sure to follow wine-drinking. If the story could end here, the true story of Ruth Holly’s life, it would be almost a happy one, but alas, the sunny slope adown which it seemed so easy to slide, daily grew darker as the years flew on. How they began to tell her the fate before her, Ruth hardly knew. A little flush of shame came first when his step was unsteady and his voice too loud. Then a grieved tear or two when he was unreasonable. Then a sorrow that kept her heart aching night and day, for the man who first won inspir'ation from the glass now lost it in its depths; lectures to be delivered were not given to the expectant public because “of the illness of the lecturer.”

Ruth knew what that illness meant, and tried to hide it. Literary work was neglected also. Money was lost that might have been easily won. Debts grew and credits lessened, the handsome suite of rooms was exchanged for one quite shabby. Ruth’s dress became ppyerty-strioken, her husband wm out

at the elbows and at the toes —he was intoxicated from morning until night, and yet she loved him and citing to him, and in his sober moments he loved her as fondly as ever. Sometimes the old strength and the old hope would be aroused in him and he would struggle to regain his lost position, but it was all in Vain, rum triumphed, and in five years from her wedding day Ruth found herself with her one remaining child, the first having died within a year of its birth, in the dingiest of wretched tenement houses, in a state bordering upon beggary. Edward had been more madly intoxicated than ever before; he had even given her a blow, and now, as the night wore on, he, muttered ftnd tftved. and called for brandy, and cursed her and himself until she trembled with fear. At last, as the clock struck 10, he started to his feet and staggered out of the room, vowing to get drunk somewhere.

Poor Ruth stood where he had left her for a few moments. The memory of the past was strong on her that night. Just at this hour five years before they had fled from her father’s home together. How tender he was, how loving, how gentle! How he vowed that she would never regret that night, and how had ne kept those promises ? He had broken every vow—he neither cherished nor protected her. His worldly goods he had given to the ravenous demon, drink, his love had become a something scarcely worth having, and yet she loved him and clung to him. She tried to feel cold and hard toward him, but she could not; she strove to remember the blow he had given her, the oaths he had uttered, but she answered herself as she did so, “It was not him who did it—it was rum.” She listened to the uncertain, reeling footsteps iirthe street below and burst into tears.

“My poor darling,” she whispered, as she thought some grievous calamity had smitten him into the thing he was, and he had not himself “put an enemy in his month to steal away his brain,” unmindful of her pleading, unmindful of her woe and of her shame. She thought of him reeling helplessly along the street, and feared that some harm would come to him. He might fall in some out-of-the-way place and lie there undiscovered and so freeze to death that bitter night, and in her agony of terror poor Ruth could not restrain herself from following him.

Her poor weakly baby slept; she wrapped it in a blanket and laid it in its poor cradle. Then she threw her warm shawl over her head, and hastened down the street, busy this late Saturday night with market-going people of the poorer classes.

A little way before her reeled the handsome, broad-shouldered figure of her husband, and she, a lady bred and born, fastidious, elegant, accomplished, reared in luxury, heard poor laborers’ wives warn their children to beware of the “drunken fellow.”

She heard course laughs at his expense, and under the shadow of her shawl her cheek burnt hotly, but for all that she never thought of going back and leaving him to himself, As soon as she could she gained his side and called to him by name; “Edward! Edward! He turned and stood unsteadily looking at her in a bewildered way. “You?” he said. “You ought to be at home this time of night.” “So ought Xve both,” said Ruth. “Come, dear.” He threw her hand off. “I’m my own master,” he said. "I’m not tied to any woman’s apron string!” and staggered away again, Ruth following through the long streets with every face turned toward them as they passed —some laughing, some contemptuous, some terrified; out at last upon the wharves, and there the besotted man sat down more stupefied by the liquor he had swallowed, in that fresh, cold air. Ruth was thinly clad—the chill o£ the sea-blast seemed to reach her very heart. She thought of the babe at home and tears cou.»T-e*l down her cheeks. Again and again she pled with the mad man at her side. Again and again she tried to bring to his mind pomft lingering memory of the pa«t days when his love and protection had been hers. In vain. Wild fancies filled his brain, demons born of the fumes of rum held possession of his senses. Sometimes he thrust her from him, sometime*! h'e gave her a maudlin embrace, and bade her bring him moce liquor, but go home he would not The distant hum of the city died out at last, all was still with the strange stillness of a city night. The frosty stars twinkled overhead. Now and then a night boat passed up the river, with measured beat and throb. Once a ruf-fianly-looking fellow sauntered past them on the pier, but though he flung her an insolent word and yet more insolent laugh, and went away singing yet more insolently, he did not approach them. So benumbed had Ruth grown, so cold to the very heart was she, that the power of motion had almost deserted her, when at last, as the church clock not far away tolled the hour of four, the degraded man staggered to his feet and reeled homeward. She followed feebly, and only by clinging to the balustrade could she mount the wretched stairs. It was bitter cold within as without, but she was glad to find herself at last under shelter. Her babe still slumbered and she did not waken it. Her frozen bosom could only have chilled the little creature. There were a few bits of broken wood in one corner, and with these she made a fire in the old stove, and crouched over it, striving to gain some little warmth, while her husband slumbered heavily upon the bed in the corner, to which he had staggered on his entrance.

Thus an passed by, and Ruth also fell asleep. The silence, the pleasant warmth at her feet, the fancy that all herfltrouble was ovteri for the night, lulled her to dreams. From them she was awakened by the loud ringing of the factory bell and by the sound of cries and shouts in the street below. She cast her eyes toward the bed—her husband was not there ? toward the cradle—it was empty. She flew to the window—the street was full of factory boys with their tin kettles. Some great jest amused them mightily. They roared, they danced, they tossed their ragged caps on high, they shrieked in unmusical laughter, and the object of all this mad mirth was only too evident. On the steps of the liquor store opposite stood Edward Holly, holding his child in his arms and exhibiting for the benefit of the delighted crowd all those antics of which an intoxicated man alone is capable. He called on the grinning master of the gin-cellar to “give this child (some brandy;” and turned the screaming infant about in a manner that left no doubt that he would end by dropping it upon the broken pavement.

Wild with terror Ruth rushed out into the street, and made her way through the crowd to the spot where her husband stood, but before she reached him the scene had changed. Some boy more brutal than the rest had thrown a handful of mud into Edward Holly’s face, and he, reeling and blaspheming, had dashed forward to revenge the act. The child had been flung away at the first step, but fortunately had been caught by an old woman who, though a degraded creature herself, had enough of the woman remaining to save an infant from injury.

And now the whole horde of boys beset the drunken man, pelting him with sticks and stones and decayed vegetables from the kennel, and reveling in the brutal delight with which such a scene always seem to inspire boys of the lower classes.

Ruth mw that her babe w» safe and

that her husband was in danger, and, forgetful of all else, flew toward him. She cared nothing for the jeers of the mob; before them all she flung her tons about him and interposed her beautiful person between him and his assailants. The head that had carried itself a little proudly in the presence of the highest of the land—that had seemed more queenlike than that of the Empress herself at the court of France —that had awakened the envy of titled English women when the young American woman dwelt among them—dropped itself low Upon the bosom of the drunken Wretch who was the jeer and scorn of a lb# ifiob, and only in love And sfty, hot in anger, did she speak to him: “Come home, Edward! They’ll hurt you, my poor love! come home with me.” Mad as he was—filled with the demon of drink, to the exclusion of the soul God had given him—the soft, sweet voice, the fond touch of the white fingers, awakened some memory of the past in the man’s breast. “Go you home, girl!” he whispered. ‘Til kill them? Don’t fret. I’ll kill ’em, and—” “Come home, darling,” she whispered again, and he stopped and gave her a kiss. At that the boys yelled derisively, and flung more mud and stones at them. One threw a stone—a heavy stone, sharppointed and jagged. Whether he ever intended to strike the man is doubtful, but the missile flew fiercely through the air and crashed against the golden head of the devoted wife. A stream of blood gushed from the white temple and poured down upon the bosom where it dropped never to lift itself again—never, never more. jOnly with a quivering shudder of pain she felt for the face of the man who had sworn to love aud cherish her, and had broken that vow so utterly while hers had been so truly kept. “Good-by, Edward,” she whispered. “I can’t see you now—kiss me. Oh, be good to baby! Be good to baby!” and no word more. The crowd was hushed to silence. A sobered man bent over the dead woman, whose hands had dropped away from his breast, and the love and truth and tenderness of her heart were all manifest to him in that terrible moment —manifest in vain, for repentence could not restore her to life, nor blot out the love which had crushed her heart through all those weary days of her sad married life. _ “What is the matter here?” cried a voice, as a portly man forded his way through the crowd. “A woman hurt?” ‘‘ A woman killed, ” said the policeman, “ and that brute is the cause of all,” and the gentleman bent forward and started back with a cry of anguish. “It is Ruth ?” he said. “My Ruth! ” and fell back into the policeman’s arms in a deathlike swoon. Forgiveness and repentence had come alike too late for poor Ruth Holly. Her father could give her nothing but a grave. The child born amidst want and penury, nourished by a half-starving mother, pined away and died in the luxurious home to which its grandfather bore it; and now, as the old man site alone in his splendid home, he sometimes hears a strange, wild cry in the streets outside, through which a drunken creature reels and staggers, howling ever and anon, “Ruth! Ruth! Ruth!” It is Edward Holly, who CVer in his drunken madness searches for his murdered wife. It is the fcfitif’dl, horrible, heart-breaking wreck of the once splen-didly-beautiful man of talent, who had only one fault.— Mary Kyle Dallas.

The Bank of Engiand.

“As safe the Rank of England” is an assurance of safety which is never questioned. No one has ever lost money by the Bank of England, Its botes Are good all ovex tlie World. Matty fetlangers go to See it. Only a few persons can go round at Once with a guide. In one room notes that have been paid have the corners tom off and hefca punched through them, Over fifty thousand notes, WUrth one million pounds, are paid every day, and thus cut. They are kept five years, and, if you give the number and date of a note, in lees than five minutes it can he hfilfia ; so that if you paid a hcSttt you owed, aud a man said you did not do so, you could provg that you had paid it. The largest note is one thousand pounds. One hundred and twenty men are in the where paid notes axe clippee, and twelve hundred in the bank. All the notes are printed in the bank, and the printing machines keep a register of every one. Here pensions are paid to crippled soldiers. Here gold and silver plate—private property—is kept. Two things I heard interested me, “Gold is very brittle,” said our guide. “ H you throw a good deal about upon a counter—that is, a number of good pieces—and then sweep it off the counter, you will find that the fragments count up. We are very careful of them. In the weighing room, all gold sovereigns that you put in your pockets in the morning with other pieces of coin at night will not be just the saine. We know that, and we weigh every sovereign that has once been out of the house. The bankers lose the difference. We have sent boxes of gold coin to them by express that have come back to us unopened, yet the rubbing of the gold has worn off five pounds’ worth.” We came away agreeing that this great bank is one of the world’s wonders.— Exchange.

The Utilization of Blood, Bones, Etc In our city abattoirs very little of a slaughtered animal is allowed to go to waste. The hoofs are sold for glue stock, and bring about 40 cents a set. Pates, for the same purpose, bring 1 cent to 1| cents per pound. The tallow is generally rendered at the abattoirs and brings from to 6| cents per pound. What is called “hog fat”— that is, fat taken from the breast and kidneys of the animal while it is yet warm, is sold to oleomargarine manufacturers at 4=i cents per pound. The bladder, wizen, reed and bung gut are sold for about 8 cents a set, and made into skins for wrapping sausages in. The head brings 30 cents, and the meat is taken off it and cairned, while the bones are used as fertilizers. The flesh tail, worth 5 cents, is made into soup, and the hair tail, which is used for making or mixed with lime and sand for building purposes, is sold at 4 cents. Homs, which bring 10 cents per pair, are converted into bone buttons, handles for cutlery, etc. The blood is dried by steam, which separates the water from it, and then baked in a drying machine and sold for sugar refining and fertilizing purposes. Of late years it has also been manufactured into buttons by means of a chemical process. A number of consumptives come to the slaughter-houses daily and drink the warm blood from the freshly-killed animal, with very beneficial results in many cases. The stomachs are used for tripe, and bring 12j to 15 cents each. The tongue is worth 50 cents to 60 cents, and is usually smoked. The heart and liver together bring 30 cents, and, although sometimes used for human food, are generally sold for cats’ and dogs’ meat.— Scientific American.

Sphere-Jumping.

An Indianapolis woman, speaking in behalf of female suffrage, says : “There is no joy like sphere-jumping. The woman who does not want to vote misses this most ecstatic of all delights. With her feet on a blue zephyr dog, her eyes on the fashion-plate, and a quenchless love for her sphere in her heart, she hears the mad mob of equal suffragists go howling by. Supported and sustained in spirit by crochet-work, bric-a-brac, and a beautiful self-satisfaction, she has no fear of falling a victim to the epidemic of advanced thought.”

A GREAT REVELATION.

Some Valuable Thoughts Concerning Human Happiness and Timely Suggestions About Securing It. Synopsis of a leCttrt Delivered by Dr. Charles Craig’ Before the Metropolitan Scientific Association. “ The public speaker of the present day labors under difficulties of which the speakers of the last century never dreamed, for while the audiences of the past received what was said without question, those of the present day are usually the mental equals or superiors of the ones who address them. Bev. Dr. Tyng, of New York, when a theological student supplied a church in a neighboring town, and, on his way to preach One morning, met an aged colored man. ‘Well, Tuple, do,you ever go to hear the young preacher?’asked the unfledged doctor. * No, Massa,’ replied ttte negro, ‘dis chile don’t let node o' dem students practis on him.’ The darkey had begun to think. The free and independent thought of this age accepts statements only where they are proven to be truth, while the development of mental power seems equally great in every other department of life. The valuable inventions of the day are counted by thousands. The increase of scientific study is Universal. The spirit of inquiry in all fields la so marked as to ’cause VOMMERT OR EV&RY bIdE,

while pedpre Seem investigating and advahCihg in every direction which can help them morally, mentally or physically. This is specially true of the human body and everything which concerns it, and the truths which the people have found, even in the last fifty years, are simply marvelous. How really ignorant some cultured and supposably scientific people Were Only a few years ago, as compared With the present day, may be better understood ftOih a lbw illustrative facts. A prominent writer prepared an elaborate eßsay to prove that steamships could never cross the Atlantic, and his pamphlet was issued just in time to be carried by the first steamer that went to England. People Once believed that the heart was the sfeat Of life and health. It is flow known that this organ is only a pump, simply keeping in motion what other and hiore important organs ’df the body have cteated and transformed. It was once supposed that If a peTeoli felt a pain in the back, the liver was deranged ; if a pain came in the lower chest the lungs were affected and consumption was near ; it is now known that a pain in the back indicates diseased kidneys, while troubles in the lower chest arise from a disordered liver and not imperfect lungs. A severe pain in the head was once thought to come from some partial defahgeffient of the brain; It Is now knowtt thkt troubles in other parte of the body, and away from the head, cause headaches, and that only by removing the cause can the pain be cured. It is a matter of

PRIVATE UtSTORY that Gen. Washington was bled to death. His last illness was slight, and caused principally by weariness. A physician was called who • bled him copiously.’ Strange to say, the patient became no better. Another doctor was called, who again took away a large amount of the vital fluid. Thus in succession fiOiir physicians drew awiay the life of a gloat man who was intended fey habile for in Old age, and who prematulely died— ffiuraehed by malpracticebled to death. That was the age of medical bleeding!”

, The speaker then graphically described another period which Came upon the people, in which they assigned the origin of all diseases to the stomach, and, after showing the falsity of this theory, and that the kidneys and liver were the causes of disease, and that many people are suffering from kidney And liver troubles to-day who do not know it; blit who should know it and attend to them at once, conjjjiued : , , . > “Let tfslpdfc at this niftier a little more closely. .The human body is ths most perfect and yet the most delicate of all created things. It is capable of the greatest results and it is liable to the greatest disorders. The slightest causes sometimes seem to .threw ite delicate machinery out_of. order, most simple and _ con'rcon-cense care restores and keeps them in perfect condition. When it is remembered that the amount of happiness or misery we are to have in this world is dependent upon a perfect body, is it not strange that simple precautions and care are not exert*jsed ? This is one of the.most Htal tjiiesilpiis of life. People may Avttia it fer the present, but there is certain td come a time in everyone’s experience when it must be faced.

“ And here pardon tee for relating a little personal experience. In the year 1870 I found myself losing both in strength and health. I could assign no cause for the decline, but it continued, until finally I called to my aid two prominent physicians. After treating me for some time, they declared I was suffering from Bright’s diseasn of the kidneys’, And lliat they could do nothitig ffiore for me. At this time I was ite Weak I could not raise my head from the pillow, and I

FAINTED REPEATEDLY. My heart beat bo rapidly it was with difficulty I could sleep. My lungs were also badly involved; I could retain nothing ttpdh my stomach, while the and bowels caused me to long for death as a relief. It was at this critical juncture that a physical longing which I felt (and which I most firmly believe was an inspiration) caused me to send for the leaves of a plant I had once known in medical Aftet gteat difficulty I at last Secured them and began their Use ih the form of tea. I noticed a lessening of the pain at oitee; I began to mend rapidly; in five weeks I was able to be about, and in two monthsT became perfectly well, and have so Continued to this day. It was only natural that such a result should have caused me to investigate most thoroughly. I carefully examined fields in medicine never before explored. I sought the cause of physical order and disorder, happiness and paih; and I found the kidneys and liver to bb the governors, whose motions Fegulatethe entire system.” After describing at length the offices of the kidneys and liver, and their important part in life, the doctor went on to say : “ Having found this great truth, I saw clearly the cause of my recovery. The simple vegetable leaf I had used was a food and restorer to my well-nigh exhausted kidneys and liver. It had come to them when their life was nearly gone, and by its simple, yet powerful, influence had purified, strengthened ahd restored them and saved me from death. Idealizing the great benefit which a knowledge of this truth would give to the world, I began in a modest way, to treat those afflicted, and in every case I found the same

HAPPY RESULTS which 1 had experienced. Not only this, but many, who were not conscious of any physical trouble, but who, at my suggestion,' began the use of the remedy which had saved my life, found their health steadily improving ana their strength continually increasing. So universal, where used, was this true, that I determined the entire world should share In its results, and I ? therefore, placed the formula for its preparation in the hands of Mr. H. H. Warner, of Rochester, N; Y., a gentleman whom I had cured of a severe kidney disease, and who by reason of his personal worth, high standing and liberality in endowing the Astronomical Observatory and other public enterprises, has become known and popular to the entire country. This gentleman at once began the manufacture of the remedy on a most extensive scale, and to-day, Warner’s Safe Kidney and Liver Cure, the pure remedy that saved my life, is known and used in all parts of the continent.

“I am aware a prejudice exists toward proprietary medicines, and that such prejudice is too often well founded, but the value of a, pure refnedy is no less because it is a proprietary medicine. A justifiable prejudice exists toward quack doctors, but is it right that this prejudice should extend toward all the doctors who are earnestly and intelligently trying to do their duty? Because Warner’s Safe Kidney and Liver Cure saved my life before it became a proprietary medicine, is it reasonable to suppose that it will not cure others and keep still more from sickness now that it is sold with a Government stamp on the wrapper ? Such a theory would be childish.” The doctor then paid some high compliments to American science, and closed his lecture as follows:

“ How to restore the health when broken and how to keep the body perfect and free from disease must ever be man’s highest study. That one of the greatest revelations of the present day has been made in ascertaining the true seat of health to be in the kidneys and liver, all scientists now admit, and I can but feel that the discovery which I have been permitted to make, and which I have described to you, is destined to prove the greatest, best and most reliable friend to those who suffer and long for happiness, as well as to those who desire to keep the joys they new possess.”

While I was drinking the horse got frightened and dashed down the road with the child in the wagon. I only have twelve girls, sir, and wouldn’t spoil the set for worlds. Well, I gave up the horse and child for lost, but I followed them up, and presently found the horse right on the edge of a precipice, at a dead standstill. He couldn’t move an inch. Wfien I got closer I thought a strap had caught round hi§ fetlocfc and ope and alsq

No, iiiy fedn, blieek is not better than wisdom; it is not better than modesty; it is not better than anything. Don’t listen to-the siren who tells you to blow your own horn or it will never be tooted upon. The world is not to be deceived by cheek, and it does search for merit, and when it finds it, merit is rewarded. Cheek never deceives the world, my son. It appears to do so to the cheeky man, but he is the one vdiO is deceived. Do you kht}w b’nfe cheeky ifian .in all your acquaintance who is not reviled for his cheek the moment his back is turned? Is the world not continually drawing distinctions between cheek and merit? Almost everybody hates a cheeky man, my son. Society tires of the brassy glare of his face, the hollow tinkling of his cymbaline tongue, the noisy assumption of his fotWatonfeflS. Tlie triumphs of cheek are only apparent. He bores his way along through the world, and frequently better people give way for him. But so they give way, my boy, for a man with a paint pot in each hand. Not because they respect tlie man with the paint pot particularly, but because they want to take care of their clothes. You selTgoods without it, and your customers won’t run and hide in the cellar when they see you coming.— Burlington Hawkey

demands attention. Nothing so quickly regulates the system and keeps it pure as Warner’s Safe Kidney and Liver Cure.

The Japanese Laborer.

In his own country the frugal Jap lives in a house of no more than four rooms—one fur efltihg, sleeping and sitting, one for cooking, one for bathing and one to spare. He never wears boots nor brings mud into the house. He ana his family sit on the floor when they eat, and take their meals at a low table. The floor of their dining and sittingroom is covered with cleaii, soft mats, upon which at night cotton comforters are spread to sleep under. Such a house can be built and furnished for SIOO, and, though cheap and small, is comfortable. The bath; found in almost all laborers’ houses, is in daily use. “Better than gold is the water cold.”

USEFUL HINTS.

To stain floors—To strong lye of wood ashes and enough copperas for the required oak shade; put this on with a mop and Varnish afterward .The Mosquito Pest.—Prof. Fontaine gives some hints for abating the mosSuito pest which is sure to come with xe advent of sunny days. First, he says, mosquitos require water for the deposit of their eggs and the rearing of their larvae or wiggle-tails. Therefore, aU cisterns should be made close and covered with close*woven brass-wire netting, to prevent them laying ihto them. Ifo old tiibs, barrels or receptacles of water ought to be permitted, and no stagnant pools left undrained within a mile of any dwelling. Then they can lie killed by the cheapest and most abundant of alkalies, common lime. Therefore this ought to be poured into every cesspool and spring. A pound of strong liine to every 100 gallons of stagnant water is sufficient. But eVen a pound to 1,000 gallons Of a cistern of drinkingwater wifi kill them, although it will probably give the Water ah unpleasant flavor, and ihake it too “ hard ” for domestic purposes. To Clean Mirrors.—Take a newspaper, or part of one, according to the size of the glass. Fold it small and dip it into a basin of clean, cold water; when thoroughly wet squeeze it out in your hand as you would a sponge, and then rub it hard all over the face of the glass, taking care that it is not so wet as to run down in streams. In fact, the paper must only be completely moistened ahd damped all through. After the glass has been Well rubbed with wet paper; let it rest for a few minutes, and then go oter it with a fresh dry newspaper (folded small in your hand) till it looks clear and bright, which it will almost immediately and with no further trouble. This method, simple as it is, is the best and most expeditious for cleaning mirrbrs> add it will be found so oh trial; giving a cleaphess and polish that ohh be produced by no other process.

When to Use Gestures.

A writer in the Golden liule rebukes the tendency to a gushing and over-fine style in literature as well as in oratory, and emphasizes a useful hint as follows : A young lady in France, placed under the tuition of (we think) Madame Clarion, was constantly offending her teacher by excessive action With her forms. She was in the habit of flinging them about in a supererogatory way; Which tore passion to tatters, “in Ercles vein.” After many admonitions, the lady resolved to tie Ker pupil’s hands to her sides with a piece of string. “Now,” said the girl, “ I can’t move them at all!”

“Go on with your part,” kindly replied the other, smiling. And go on she did, with elocution all the better for action the less. At last, on reaching the climax of her part, her excitement herted her little wrists, she burst the strings, and, as your Chairwoman would phrase it, she “gestulated” with great vehemence. Wh en it was over, she apologized, with tears in her eyes, saying she really “could not help it.” To her surprise, her instructress praised her action this time. . “That; m'6n is what we want. Reserve your vehement displays of feeling till you cannot help making them, and they will be both appropriate and successful.” Surely the lesson is a large one. Quiet energy, with readiness to strike the iron when (but not before) it is hot, is the secret of success in most undertakings.

It is remarkable what little bites a woman takes when eating in the presence of her sweetheart. WhaLa little mouth shfe has then! nibbles with her little white teeth like some dainty squirrel eating a hickory nut. But wait until wash day comes. Watch her when she goes to hang up clothes and gets in a hurry. By the time that she gets the big ends of fifteen clothes pins hid in that mouth you will begin to think that it is a pretty good sized hearty mouth after all.— Bloomington Bye.
