Suggestive Rhymes.
A slovenly dress, a shabby pate,
The fences down, a broken gate.
Pigs in the garden, weeds very high,
Children unwashed—no bacon to fry—
Lots of great dogs and yawling tom cats,
Windows repaired wiih a dozen old hats,
An empty barn—not a spear of hay.
Cows in the clover, horse run away,
Things sold by the guess without being weighed,
Bills coming in and taxes unpaid—
Pipes and tobacco—whiskey, neglect,
Drag in their train, as all might expect,
All sorts of trouble to fret away life,
But worst of the whole, an unhappy wife.
Many estates are lost in the getting,
Since men have forsakou hewing and splitting,
And women their sewing and knitting.
A mackerel sky—
The wind will be high.
Then bting in the grain, *
Close by there is rain.
If you would thrive,.
Be op by live;
For there is health
And certain wealth,
When at the plough,
Or milking cow.
Clear the soil from moles and slugs,
Prune the trees, keep oflf the bugs,
Then fruits mid melons, rich and fair,
Will recempeuso for all your care.
Rutabaga, cariots, and beets,
Improve the character of meats;
They make good beef, ar.d quicker too
Than any other feed will do.
At the farmer’s cost
Is an early frost.
Kxeicise reason.
Harvest in season.
Os all the crops a farmer raises,
Or capital employs,
None brings such comfort and-such pta’ses
As u crop of girls and boys.
Our Gardens.
Who has a garden to plant? I know—
Each littiegirl and boy; and so
Each little boy and girl must get
Good seeds t > sow, good grafts lo set;
Aud when they h ive set and sowed, take care,
To trim them and weed them till they shall bear
Such good and beautiful trait, that they
Will be tjlad for all they have done some day.
Each little gardeu is each little heart,
Where the good seeds with the bad will start,
And we all must strive to destroy the bad
And protect the good. And the lass and lad
Who work the hardest to plant and sow
In their little hearts good seeds, may know
That their future lives wil! prove what care
They took, and what seeds they p'auted there.
The Bee and Its History.
Naturalists in describing the domestic bee,
class it with the insects having membranous
wings forming the suborder Hvmenopteka.
The group embraces fifteen families, present
ing us with numerous genera and species wide
ly differing from each other in thmr habits and
modes of life. The family, Apiari.<b, is rep
resented by at least seven genera among
which the honey be (Apis,) the bumble bet
(Bombus), the carpenter bee ( Xylocopha ), and
the mason bee (Osmia) are the most familiar
examples.
The honey bee. is represented by a number
species, none of which are natives of this
part of the continent. Mexico, Central Amer
ioa and Brazil furnish a number of specie- of
bees differing fr<>m th-S itpis Melifica which i»
the species from eastern continent so widely
cultivated- both there and here. Many ol
those Mexican and South American bees are
very curious objects <>f s udy. In Honduras,
there are said to be fourteen distinct species
of bees, most of them inhabiting the trunks
or limbs of hollow trees; a few, however,
burrowing in the ground, or forming a hive in
the fisures of rocks. The insects are smaller
than those we cultivate, and are mostly with
out stings. The colonies are also smaller,
and inhabiting a climate where there is but
little winter demand for honey, they provide
a smaller store of that important commodity.
The manner of storing their honey is similar.
Instead of constructing a regular comb they
make each cell separate, attaching the side ol
it to the wall ot the hive. Tnese cells are
from two to three inches longand nearly half an
inch in diameter. The brood cells are small
and are attached to the honey cells. This ar
rargement leaves the center of the hive empty,
which, in warm climates, is of the first im
portance.
Several attempts have been made to intro
duce the stingless bee into this country, but
hitheto without success. A few years ago
the Department at Washington imported
from Brazil several colonies of these bees,
and an elfort was made to winter them in a
conservatory ; but they failed to raise any
young brood, and consequently the experi
ment was a failure. The native country of
our honey bee cannot now be ascertained
with any degree of certainty. The raonu
inents of Egypt give evidence that bees were
successfully cultivated by the Egvptains four
thousand years ago. Iloney was a common
article of diet among the Israelites from theii
first settlement in Palestine; but the ineiden
tal allusions to the subject in sacred history,
leaves it doubtful whether the honey was ob
tained by domestic cultivation of bees, or
from the supply furnished spontaneously by
the wild bees which stored their treasures
among the rocks. Bee-keeping was an art in
high repute among the Greeks and Romans.
Virgil’s account of bee-culture, and his al
lusions to the habits of that insect, as these
are found in Georgies, show the attention
which was de.voted this art in that age, as well
as manifest the habit of careful observation
which the poet had cultivated. There is one
blunder in point of fact in this description,
which even the fine poetry will hardly be an
apology tor. Virgil makes his bees raise
their brood in the carcases of dead animals,
thus confounding the larva of the flesh fly
with that of the bee. But internal mystery
of the hive and the habits of the bee, were
scarcely more than conjecture, before the in
vention of glass hives in 1712 revealed the
wonderful economy of this model state. Bies
were brought from Europe in the early years
of American colonization, and by swarms
straying off, they soon became wild in ail the
timbered sections of our country. Fifty years
ago many parts of Indiana abounded with
wild bees, and these swarms were often very
rich. But the forests have given away to cul
tivated fields, and the bee hunter came to
destroy, and with him came that worst ene
my ot the bee—the moth—and so the wild
bee has nearly disappearj from our State.
There is some confusion among bee fan
ciers, in speaking of new stocks ot bees late
ly imported from Italy and elsewhere. Some
speak of them as distinct species while otheas
are disposed -to regard them merely as var
ieties produced by the climate, mode of liv
ing and other extraneous circumstances. W ith
the knowledge of the subject at present in my
posession, I incline to the latter opinion; and
if this be so, tha Italian and Egyptian bees, if
they be neglected, will, in a few years, degen
crate to the rank of the old stock.— Prof.
R. T. Brown, in the Bee Journal.
Southern Wealth. —The official figures
at the department in Washington estimate
that the cotton crop of the Southern States
tliis year (1889,) will be worth $240,000,000,
while the total value of exports of South is set
down at $328,.:00,000. At this iate the val
ue of Southern products is about s3l 32 per
h id for the entire Southern population. These
figures go to show’ that the South is even now
the richest section of the conntry. State

How I would build a Bee House and winter
Bees—The Result of Experiment During
the last Three Winters.
One sure result of my experiments is, they
must have upward ventilation to carry off the
dampness, and keep the bees healthy, warm
and dry, and prevent the combs from mould
ing—the extreme of warmth or cold makes
upward ventilation imperitive for their suc
cessful wintering. A good way to fix up
hives for wintering, and secure them just the
necessary ventilation, is to draw over the
(pen top of the hive a piece of strong, thick
cotton cloth, —such as the heaviest grain or
(hot sacks are mad? of, —tacked, tied or hoop
id over the top tight, so that not a bee can
re t out, then close up the bottom entrance
tight, su that not a bee can get out or cold air
hi. Enough air will swift down through the
doth on top, to supply the necessary pure air
or the respiration of the bees; and its thick
less preventing the descent of the cold in
mch quariity as to discommode the bees—its
doseness also preventing the rapid ascent of
he heat of the bees from the hive—but al
owing the moisture of their breath to pass
ipthrough, preventing its moulding thecombs.
No cellar, shed or barn will be too cold lor
oees in hives fixed so. I had fifteen swarms
so fixed last winter, with two cleats on top
,o raise the cover one inch up from the
doth, —the top cover to catch the snow and
aortas,—with an inch space'between the top
jover and the ventilating cloth covering the
lives. The hives s*ood out the coldest and
itonniest pari of the winter, and during the
boldest weather, no frost was discoverable in
my of t’ em, with the themometer at2G» be
low zero, —neither was there any mould on
»ny of the combs, but they were clear and
aright as a ne-v dollar. Shut up at the bot
;nm, the bees could not get out oil warm, sun
shiny days to die on the snow. And as to
he queens breeding, they did as well as any
,hut I did not meddle with to stimulate; prov
ng that it is not warmth that is wanted, but
.hat the temperature may be even, and that
.he storms and cold currents may be broken
iff from them.
Another ytar I propose t<> build a bee
louse, such a one as my experience teaehe,
meis best. I would like it built and ventilated,
>o that the themometer will stand at about
10 > above zero—l2° below fret zing point all
vinter, if possible. To accomplish which I
propose to build me a balloon frame, board
•and up and down and battened; then a roof of
battened boards; then another roof six inches
ibove with air space between them, so that
the sun can in no way effect the temperature
»f the room below. The east and the south
sides I will protect from the sun. My object
is to get a cold, quiet and dark room to put
ny bees in. My h.ves fixed as described at
che head of this article, the room to be .ven
tilated so as to keep the temperature down,
and the room large enough to hold about three
tons of ice, to keep the room cool and the
Dees quiet, until spring has fairly broken. As
it is in‘W, they have to be put on their stands
—at the worst time for their good, —when,
with high winds and snow blinding, they are
rapidly thinned out during March and April.
I propose, with rny house protected from the
-iun and keep cool with tile ice, to keep the
bees quiet until the boistrous weather is over,
ind they are rapidly increasing in number
from the hatching brood. All of the above
is accomplished in my double-cased movable
comb, Casket Hive.
The house I want to wint r single bees in,
F want small hives to get natural swarms ;
irtificial queens and their brood proving, with
me, to be short lived. It will not pay to
keep any but healthy, vigorous queens and
swarms. Johor M. Priob.

The Teeth.
Rousseau said that no woman with fine
teeth could be ugly. Any female mouth,
almost.,, with a good set of ivcried, is kissable.
The too early loss of the first teeth has an
unfavorable influence upon the beauty and
duration of the second. The youngest chil
dren should accordingly be made to take care
of them. All that is necessary is to brush
them several times a day with a little ordina
ry »oap or magnesia, and water. Grown
people should clean their teeth at least five
times in twenty-four hours, on rising in the
morning, and going to bed at night, and after
each meal. A brush as hard as can be borne
without pain should be used, and the best of
applications is pure soap and water, always
lukewarm.
After eating, the particles of food should
be carefully removed from the teeth by means
of a “tooth pick of quill or wood, but never of
metal, and by a thread passed now and then
between the teeth. Tooth powders of all
kinds are injurious both to the enamel and
the gums, and if employed every particle of
them should be removed from the month by
careful rinsing. The habit which some wo
men have of using a bit of lemon, though it
may whiten the teeth and give temporary
firmness and color to the gums, is fatal to the
enamel, as are all acids. No one, young or
old, should turn their jaws into nut-crackers;
and it is dangerous even tor women to bite
off, as they often do, the ends of the thread
in sewing. It is not safe to bring very hot
food or drink, especially if immediately fol
lowed by anything cold, in contact with the
teeth.
Wholesome gums are more essential even
than the teeth to the beauty of the mouth.
They should be of a firm texture, and a lively
red color, and well spread over the base of
each tooth, but they are often pale or livid,
shrunken, fleshless, and sometimes even ul
cerated. The excessive use of sugar and
candies does great mischief. It is not only
the had effect of the acids produced by their
decomposition, but the grittiness of these
substances which wears away the gum, bares
the roots of the tooth, and spoils the mouth.
This is the chief danger of tue use of tooth
powders. Livid gums will be benefitted by
occasional, but not too frequent, hard rubbing
and pricking with a tooth pick until they
bleed slightly. Harper's Magazine.
A Good Mother.
Sometimes one hears it said of a good wife
and mother, that “ she’s a regular homebody.”
The phrase is simple, but what a world of
ennobling qualities it indicates, and what a
universe of frivolities it excludes. The mat
ronly home body is “ Heaven’s best gift to
man.” Dashing ladies whose mission it is to
set the fashions, wii! you not look in upon
your gentle sister as she sits in her well
ordered nursery, making the children happy
with her presence? Notice how she adjusts
their little difficulties, and admonishes, en
courages, instructs and amuses, as the case
may require. Do you think any nurse maid
could produce such harmony in that little
circle? Is she not an enchantress? Verily,
yes, and her charm is ‘love stronger than
death’ for those sweet young faces, where
you may see her smites and frowns (though
she seldom lias occasion to frown) reflected
in glee and sorrow like sunlight and # cloud
shadow in a quiet pool. YVhat she is, she
will tertch her daughters tube; and blessed
are the sons that have such a mother. — De~
fender.
The Girls. —Can we not bring up our girls
more usefully, less showily, less dependant
on luxury and wealth? Can we not teach
them from babyhood that to labor is a higher
thing than merely to enjoy ; that even enjoy
ment itself is never so sweet as when it is
earned ? Can we not put into their minds,
whatever be their station the principles of
truth, simplicity of taste, hopefulness, haired
of waste, and these being firmly routed, trust
to their blossoming up in whatever destiny
the maiden may be called ?
What Should be Remembered.
There is an average consumption of honey
by every colony of bees for every month in
the year, as shown by Mrs. Tupper, in the
Agricultural Reports a short tirue since. We
have an important item in this that should
be observed. If the bees are stinted in this
average supply of honey, during the breeding
months, particularly from March to Septern
ber, brood raising is checked, and the pros
perity of every colony of bee, not properly
cared for, will be seriously interfered with,
and their destuction sometimes made certain.
It is the natural instinct of bees to breed
but litttle during a scarcity of honey ; hence,
if there is a long failure of the secretion of
honey in the breeding season, they must be fed
to promote breeding, or the stocks wilt be
come depopulated, so that the remainder wil!
die at the approach ol winter, as they did in
the fall and winter of 1888. Only colonies
with a lull supply of bees are safe. They
should never have less than four quarts ot
bees to winter safely, and the largest prnpor
tion of these should be young ; for if too old
this again may be the source of an unexpect
ed loss of many stands of bees, as übove in
1868. If there is one gallon of bees a good clus,
ter can be formed, to generate the required
amount of heat for safety, provided they
have, at all times, sufficient noney within th.-ir
reach, and the requiste amount of upward
ventiliation to carry off all the excess of mois
ture from the hive, so preventing ice mouldy
combs iu the hive during the winter sea-on,
both in and out of winter repositories. A
direct current of air should never pass through
the hive in winter.— Jewell Davis, in the Bee
Journal.
Holiday*.
A holday may be a*holiday without change
of air; and the best and most pleasant ho!i
days are those which come the most frequenly,
and last the least tim*. A vacation, or what
ever it may be called, which extends over
several weeks, and times a man out of the or
dinary sphere of his employment, is almost
equivalent to an utter change of life. He be
gins with a wrench, so to speak, and he ends it
with a wrench. Toward the latter part of
his holiday, he counts the hours that intervene
between him and his work, and he returns to
his employment as to a prison. IlisnlJ hab
its have left him, his old haunts are strange,
his oldjcompanions arc strange, his old occupa
tions are strange and distasteful. He has
lost that pleasaut elasticity of mind which he
thought, and his friends told him w s ihe ex
haustion of overwork ; and instead of apply
ing himself to his labor A'ith renewed strength,
he is only conscious of an increased degree of
lassitude. The relaxation afforded by short
occasional holidays, by those few hours snatch
ed without long premeditated design from an
engrossing employment, and enjoy without a
feeling, that when they end, they will be fol
lowed by a long and seemingly interminable
period of dull and unbroken diudgery, is far
more invigorating than the effoet produced on
the human system by the longest periods of
repose In one case the holiday sets with
the promise that another will rise to morrow;
in the other case it sets with no promise, but
with much gloom.— Casioell's Magazine.
Lot us Help one Another.
This little sentence should be written on
every heart, stamped on every memory. It
should be the golden rule practiced, not only
in every household, but throughout the world.
By helping one another, we not only remove
thorns from the pathway, and anxiety from
the minds, but we feel a sense of pleasure in
our hearts, knowing we are helping a fellow
creajfire. A helping hand or an encouraging
worn is no less to us, yet it is a benefit to
others. Who has not needed the encourage
ment and aid of a kind friend ? llow sooth
ing when perplexed with some task that is
mysterious and burdensome, to feel a gentle
hand on the shoulder and hear a kind voice
whispering, “Do not feel discouraged—
I see your trouble—let me help you.” What
strength is inspired—what hope created—
what sweet gratitude is felt, and the greatest
difficulty is dissolved as dew beneath the sun
shine. Yes, let us help one another by en
deavoring to strengthen and encourage the
weak and lifting the burden of care from the
weary and oppressed, that life may glide
smoothly on and the fount of bitterness yield
sweet waters; and He whose willing hand is
ever ready to aid us, will reward our humble
endeavors, and every good deed will be as
“ bread cast up f >n the waters, to return after
many days,” if uot to us, to those we love.—
Defender.
“ Nothing in the Paper.”
The following spicy chapter, on the subject
of newspapers, we clip from an exchange—
elicited, no doubt, by the too frequent re
marks of the indifferent reader, alter perus
ing the news of the day, that “there’s nothing
in the paper.” It says :
And men are always grumbling about their
papers, and insinuating how much better they
could do it. They taik as flippantly about
“fine articles” on every imaginable subject
as if they could effeot such a change. Let
some of these over-running philosophers try
it for one hundred and fifty days in succes
sion.
And then they think it is nothing to select
for a newspaper ; you have merely to run the
scissors through a half dozen exchanges, and
you have got matter enough. Now, this is
the most important and the most diffi cult de
partment to fill on a newspaper. Very few
men have the slightest idea how to do the
work. It requires a thorough newspaper man
—who knows the public appetite well; who
knows what is going on in the world, and who
knows how to rewrite and pack a column into
a dozen lines.
Men who skim a newspaper and toss it
aside, little reflect how much brains and toil
have been expended in serving up that meal.
Busy h<fads and busy hands have been toiling
all day to gather and prepare those via ids,
and some vast building has been lit from cel
lar to garret, all night, to get the paper ready
for the newsboy by crack of dawn.
“Nothing in the paper!” Nothing in your
head ! that’s wnat’s the matter.
Absence of Mind.
Os a German Professor, who has lately
died, Prof. Augustus Schleicher, an eminent
comparative philologist, the following story
is told : lie once appeared in his lecture-room
not, as usual, in a grey coat, buttoned to the
chin, but in an open, black overcoat. He did
not discover the mistake until he had searched
in vain for his manuscript, which was not
about him ; and, begging pardon of his audi
ence and promising short delay, he ran home,
took the papers from his grey coat, and put
them in the pocket of his surtout. Then it
occurred to him that he might, without the
loss of much time, resume his usual dress as
a lecturer, and accordingly he exchanged the
black •for the grey. Os course, when he re
turned he was again without his manuscript,
and was obliged, after ail explanation which
convulsed the audience, to dismiss them till
another day.
A Distinction Witholta Difference.—
An eminent Roman ecclesiastic was in the
habit of beginning every argument by saying,
“ I make a distinction ” A Cardinal, know
ing his peculiarity, once asked him at a large
party: “Do you think it lawful to baptize
with soup?” “ I make a distinction,” replied
the priest: “If your eminence means bona
fide soup, 1 should say no; but if you mean
this present mixture, ( should say yes, as
there is no perceptible difference between it j
nnd water” |
Guard Against Vulgar Language.
We commend the following excellent ad
vice to every one of our youthful readers, and
more especially to the boy*, for they are more
likely, from their associations and the baneful
influences to which they are exposed, to form
the repulsive andjvicious habit of using vul
gar language. Parents should read it to their
children, and impress the caution by kind
words, and by pointing out the degrading na
ture of the evil practice herejeondemned. A
vulgarword from the lips of childhood is like
the stain on fresh fallen snow —it tarnishes
what’should be pure and lovely.
There is as much connection between the
words and the thoughts-as there is between
the thoughts and actions. Tne latter is only
the expression of the former, but they have
a power to re act upon the soul and leave the
stain of corruption there. A young man who
allows himself to use one vulgar or profane
word has not only shown that there is a foul
spot upon the mind, but by the appearance of
that word he extends tfeu spot and inflames
it, till, by indulgence, it will pollute and ruin
the soul. Be careful of your tho’'ghts.
If-you control the tongue so that no im
proper words are pronounced by it, you will
soon be able to ootitrol the mind, and save it
from corruption. You extinguish the fire by
smoothing it or preventing bad thoughts burn
ing into language. Never utter a word any
where which you are ashamed to speak in ihe
presence of the most refinded female. Try
this a little while and you will soon haveoom
mand of yourself.
“I Know The W**.To Heaven.”
These words were spoken by little jMm
nie to little Johnny, who stood by her side
looking on a picture-iJM^fe—that Minne had in
her hand.
“You do.” Said little John. “Well,
won’t you tell me how to get there?”
“O yes I'll tell jo i. Just commence and
going up ail the tune, and you’ll go there.—
But Johnny you must not turn back.”
“ Well,” said John, “I won’t.”
Tney both had been looking at a picture of
our Saviour’s head pressed with thorns and
the blood trickling down his face. This ex
cited little Minnie’s sympathies, and bending
her little head she kissed the face of the pic
ture three times, and said aloud to herself,
“ My mama has been teaching me the way to
heaven for a long time, and now I know the
way so well, I can go by myself.”
Little Minnie is only three years old.—
Flow many grown folks are there shat can
say they know the way to heaven, and can go
by themselves?
No, not a Spoonful I
A gentleman was much interested in a
friend who hal fallen into the habits of in
temperance, and earnestly urged him to self
control. Ilis friend was much affected, and
promised to regard the counsel. That night
he was brought home drunk. When the gen
tleman called him to account, he answered :
“If you hud insisted on total abstinence, I
Jshuuld have been safe, hut 1 cannot so much
as taste even a spoonful and keep any self
control.”
“If thy right hand offend thee, out it off
and cist it from thee.”
“ But judge this rather, that no man put a
stumolmg-block or an occasion to fall in his
brother’s way.”— Band of Hope Review.
Clerical Anecdote ---The Rev. Samuel
Ciawson, a Methodist preacher of eoeentric
manners, some times called the “wild man,”
was very popular in Western Virginia, some
twenty years ago. .He was crosseyed and
wiry made, and very dark-skinned for a white
man. At times he was elo
quent, always exo : tableland occasionally ex
travagant. He once accompanied a brother
minisier, Rev. Mr. R., v. prominent pastor,
in a Visit Jo a Colored ciforoh. Mr. R. gave 1
the colored preacher the hint, and of course
Clawson was invited to preach. lie did so,
and during the sermon set the impulsive Afri
cans to shouting all over the house. This, in
turn, set Clawson to extravagant words apd
actions, and lie leaped out of the pulpit like a
deer, and began to take the hands ol the col
ored brethren, and mix in quite happily. lie
wept for joy. Then, pressing .through the
crowd, he found brother R"., and, sitting down
beside him, he threw his arm around his neck,
and with tears streaming down his cheeks, he
said : “Brother R., I almost wish I had been
born a nigger. These folks have more reli
gion than we have.” “Well, well,” said bro
ther R , “you come so near it that you needn’t
cry about it.”
A Sensible Old Dog. —When I gave our
dog a dry cru-t of bread, and after an unsuc
oessfui attempt to eat it, he went and soaked
it in the brook, it appeared as if he reasoned ;
and when, at another time, 1 gave him a piece
of cake, which lie declined till I bit a piece
out of it myself, and then took it dutifully and
ate it, it seemed just like saying, “If that is
good enough for you, it is for me.” And
when I tried to drive a pig into his pen
through an open door, at;d the obstinate little
brute ran by about fifty times, till Tiger took
him by the ear and walked him straight in,
and spitting out the bristles, walked demurely
out, it seemed as if he said to the pig, in a
very convincing way, “Tnis is where master
wants you, and you ha i better go in.”
Wh'Oh was or the Most Profit? —A
rich nobleman, on showing a friend his large
collection of pqecious stones and gems that
had been gathered by great labor and expense,
remarked: “ And yet they yield me no in
come.” His friend replied that he had two
stones which cost hi n bet ten florins, yet they
yielded him an income of two hundred florins
a year. The nobleman was very anxious to
see such profitable stones, when his friend
took him to hisflmr-mi'l, and pointed outthe
two homely mili-stones which yielded a larger
income than all his jewels.
In addition to the fact that ice is lighter
than water, there is another curious thing
about which many persons do not perhaps
know, viz., its puriiy. A lump of ice melted
will become pure distilled water. Water in
freezing turns out of it all that is not water, —
salt, air, coloring matter, and all impurities,
frozen sea-water makes fresh-water ice. It
you freeze a basin of indigo water, it will
make ice as clear and as white as that made
of pure rain water. When the cold is very
sudden, these fpreign mutters have no time to
escape, either by rising or sinking, and are
thus entangled with the ice, but do not make
any part of it. —Farm Home Journal.
Sunshine and Clouds. —Ah! this beauti
ful world ! I know m>t what to think of it.
Sometimes it is all sunshine and gladness, and
heaven itself lies not far off, and then it sud
denly changes, and is dark and sorrowful, and
the clouds shut out the day. In the lives of
the saddest of us, there are bright days like
this, when we feel as if we could take the
great world in our arms. Then come gloomy
hours, when the fire will not burn on our
hearths, and all without and within is dismal,
cold and dark. Believe me, every heart has
its secret sorrows, wh ch the world knows
not, and oftentimes we call a man cold when
he is only sad.— Longfellow.
Equanimity. —Let us be calm. If your
hat blows off, walk slowly toward it, and y< u
will be surprised to see how many men wiil
rush after it to restore it to you. All undue
passions are hurtful. Let us not be frighten
ed, for all men are but men, and the light
nings are held in gra-«p of God. Let us not
be carried away by that ruinous enthusiasm
which defeats its own purpose.
Eben Taplin, a friend of Mead, the battle
borough sculptor, has carved an eagle from a
solid rock of Barre granite. Its wings are
extending, measuring three feet from tip to
tip. It stands upon“a half globe with a lau
rel wreath about it. The beak is well pointed,
with mouth open, and the “expression” of
the bird’s face is as fierce and keen as could
be executed in finest marble. The wings av
erage only two inches in thickness, and are
worked to a perfect edge, and the feathers and
quills upon them are very faithfully represent
ed. Sculptures hjtve heretofore held that the
Vermont granite could not be cut into so slen
der and beautiful work; in fact, it is only
with the hardest tools and heaviest iron mal
lets that it can be cut all.
Dangerous Pleasures. —l have sat upon
the sea shore, and waited for its gradual ap
proaches, and have seen its dancing waves and
white surf, and admired that He who measur
ed it with his hand had given it life and mo
tion; and lingered till its gentle waters grew
into mighty billows, and had well nigh swept
me from my firm footing. So I have seen a
heedless youth gazing with curious spirit up
on sweet motions and gentle approaches
of inviting pleasures till they have detained
his eye and imprisoned his feet, and swelled
upon his soul, and swept him to swift destruc
tion. — Farm and Home Journal.
Four Good Habits. — Punctuality, accura
cy, steadiness and dispatch. Without the
first, time is wasted; without the second,
mistakes the most hurtful to our own credit
and interest, and that of others, m-iy be com
mitted ; without the third, nothing can be
well done; and without the f’o nth, o[p »itu
nities for advantage are lost which it is impos
sible to recall.
Plain Preaching. —The late Dr. Bloom
field, Bishop of London, was preaching before
a village congregation a very abstruse sermon
on the existence of a Supreme Being. Alter
the service concluded, he asked the church
warden how he liked the sermon. He replied:
“ 1 cannot say I agree with you, Doctor, for
1 really think there be a God.”
Rich or Poor. —Rothschild s lid, one day,
he always knew, when people were talking
about his fellow-llebrews, whether the latter
were rich or poor. Upon being asked to ex
plain how he came to know that, he replied :
“Why, you see, when people are talking
about a wealthy man of my creed, they call
him an Israelite, but if he is poor, they call
him a Jew.”
An orator, holding forth ill favor of “ wo
man, dear, divine woman,” concludes thus:
“ Oh, my hearers, depend upon it, nothing
beats a good wife.” “ l beg pardon,”
replied one of his auditors, “a bad husband
does.”

Headache, Jaundice. Costiveness, Camp Dysentery,
Sick Headache, Chronic Diarrhoea, Affections ol the
Bladder and Kidneys, Fever, Nervousness, Chills.
Diseases ot the skin, Impurity of the Blood, Melan
choly or depression of Spirits.
Most of the ailments here enumerated have their
origin in a diseased liver, which is the most prevalent
affection in this country, and as in many cases the
patient is not within the reach of a physician, it re
quires that some remedy should be provided that
would not in the least impair the constitution, and yet
be active and safe. That Mich is the character of the
SIMMONS REGULATOR there can be no doubt,
which the testimony of hundreds will establish.
SYMPTOMS OF A DISEASED

llilUll liism-in the arm. Tne stomach is ol-
Jiecled with loss of appetite and sick
ness, bowels m general are costive, sometimes ulter
nating with lax; the head is troubled with pain, ae
compamed with a dull, heavy sensation. There is
generally a considerable loss of memory, accompa
nied with a painful sensation of having left und-ue
something which ougni.lo have been done. A slight,
dry cough is sometimes an attendant. The patient
complains of weariness and debility ; he is easily
startled, his feel are cold or burning, and he coin
plains of a prickly sensation of the skin ; his spirits
are low ; and although satisfied that exercise would
be beneficial lo hun, yet he can scarcely summon up
fortitude enough to try it. In fact, he distrust every
remedy. Several ol the above symptoms attend the
disease, but cases have occurred when few ot them
existed, yet examination of the body after death has
shown ihe Liver to have been extensively deranged.
It should be ustd by all persons, old and young,
whenever anyof the foregoing symptoms appear. Il
is a purely vegetable compound, is not injurious to the
most delicate constitutions, und will keep the liver in
healthy action if used properly.
Persons living in unhealthy localities may avoid all
billious attacks by taltiug a dose occasionally to keep
the liver in healthy action.
For children complaining of colic

Many persons, from eating too much, are restless
at night, or in day time are fidgety, wool-gathering,
can’t understand what they read, can’t keep their
thoughts on any one subject so as to reason well, or
become fretful. One or two tablespoonsful will give
relief.
