The Household.
HtLPI OR HIKDRANCICS.
You are on the road to beaten.
Though you walk a city street;
All Invisible the pathway
Trodden by the Christian's feet.
Many pleasures lure you f-om it,
But yon have not time to stray;
You must only pause to gather
What will help you on the way.
Does some friendly voice invite yon
In the mazy dance to tread 7
Does some volume tempt yonr notice
Which by you should not be read 7
Stop a moment; think about it;
And. if need be, kneel and pray;
Answer thia one searching question:
• Will it help you ou the way f
Does the pleasant family circle
Sanctify the douutful gam. 7
Does the Christian by this pleasure
Add new lustre to his name 7
Does the praise by press and people,
Os some new and pleasing play,
M ke it right that you sbonld see It 7
Wl.l it help you on the way 7
Does some spec ■' itlon dazzle 7
(Although not exacdy fair);
Does some kindly voice Invite you
In the social glass to share?
Does some questionable story
Lead your thoughts from heaven astray?
Ere you listen, ask the question:
"Will ithelp me on the way ?"
Many pleasant recreations
You upon the way will find;
Innocent and beneficial,
Ke creating body, mind ;
And the spirit, helped an I strengthened
With supplies of grace each day,
Joyful? should take these blessings
Which will help it on the way.
—At. Ella Cornell, in National BaptM
A GOODWORD FOR ROMPING
GIRIN.
Most women have a dred of these.
Mothers would rather their little daugh
ters were called anything else but romps.
They say to them, "be very quiet now,
my dears, don’t run or jump, try and be
little ladies.” As if a healthy child could
be still; as if it could take time to walk,
or step over what came in its way ; as if
it could fold its hands in its lap, when
its little heart is so brimful of tickle. It
is absurd and wrong because it is un
natural. Children, girls, as well as boys,
need exercise; indeed, they must have
it, to be kept in a healthy condition.
Tney need it to expand their chests,
strengthen their muscles, tone their
nerves, develop themselves generally.
And t.liis exercise must be out of doors,
too It is not enough to have calisthenics
in the nursery or parlor. They need to
be out in the sunshine, out in the wind,
out in the grass, out in the woods, out of
doors somewhere, if it be no bigger
place than the common or park. Sup
pose they do tan their pretty faces. Bet
ter be as brown as a berry, and have the
pulse quick and strong, than white as a
lily and complain of cold feet and head
ache. suppose they do tear their clothes;
suppose they do wear out their shoes;
it don’t try a mother’s patience and
strength half so much to watch and mend
as it does to watch night after night a
qu -rulous sick child, and it don’t drain
a father’s pocket-book half as quick to
buy shoes as it does to pay doctor's bills.
Indeed, we don’t believe there is a
prettier picture in all the wide world
than that of a little girl balancing her
self on the topmost rail of an old zigzag
fence, her bonnet on one arm and a bas
ket of blackberries on the other, her
curb streaming out in the wind, or rip
pling over her flushed cheeks, her apron
half torn from her waist, and dangling to
her feet, her fingers stained with the ber
ries she had picked, and her lips with
those she had eaten. Mother, mother,
don't scold that little creature when she
comes and puts her basket on the table
and looks ruefully at the rent in the new
ginghams apron, and at the little bare
toes sticking out of the last pair of shoes.
Wash off her hot face and soiled hands,
and give her a bowl of cool milk and
light-bread, and when she has eaten her
fill and got r- sted, make her sit down
beside you and tell what she has seen off
in those meadows and woods.
Her heart will be full of beautiful
things—the sound of the wind, the fall
of the leaves, the music of the wild birds
and the laugh of wild flowers, the rip
pling of streams and the color of peb
b'es, the shade of the clouds and the
hue of the sunbeams—all those will
have woven their spell over her inno
cent thoughts, and made her a poet in
feeling, if not in expression.
No, mothers, don’t nurse up your lit
tie girls like house plants. The daugh
ters of this generation are to be the
mothers of the next, and if you would
nave them healthy in body and gentle in
temper, free from nervous affections,
fidgets and blues; if you would fit them
f, r life—its joys, its cares, and its trials
—let them have a good romp every day
while they are growing. It is Natures
own specific, and, if taken in season,
warranted to cure ails of the girl and the
woman.— Anon. —Farm and Firftide
DON'T TATTLE.
Children don’t talk about each other.
Don’t call one schoolmate ugly, another
htingy, another cross, behind their backs.
It is mean. Even if they are ugly,
stingy, or cross, it does you no good to
repeat it. It makes you love to tell of
faults—it makes you uncharitable —your
soul grows smallert-your heart loses its
generous blood, when you tattle about
y,»ur friends. Tell all’ the good you
Know about them, and carry the sins in
vour own heart, or else tell them to God,
and ask H’m to pardon them. That
will be Christ-like. If anybody says to
you, ”0, that Mary Wills did such a
naughty thing,” call to mind some virtue
that Mary possesses, and hold it up to
her praise. For your own sake, learn to
make this a habit.
Fon Dyspepsia in any Form. —One-
half pound carbonate soda, one ounce
bismuth, one ounce pepsin, one-half
ounce Jamaica ginger. Add one quart
<>i water, cork tight. Shake well before
using. Dose, one tablespoonful after
.-ntirg. Be careful about diet, eating no
gu-ase or rich sauce till the stomach
regains its strength. A lady who had
s tiered many years, was given up to
die, by what three physicians pronounc
.d cancer in the stomach, and this pre
scription cured her.
Howto Pronounce them.—Aye, mean

THE CHRISTIAN INDEX AND SOUTH-WESTERN BAPTIST: THURSDAY, AUGUST 25, 188l*
FASHION NOTES.
Jet is more fashionable than ever.
Hanging pockets are in high fashion.
All red parasols grow in popular fa
vor.
The return to polonaises is a fixed
fact.
Queen’s gray is a new shade of this
color.
Pale silvery pink is much warn at
watering places.
Shot or changeable materials areagain
in high favor.
Grenadines in all colors and black and
white are worn.
Fawn and porcelain blue make an ad
mirable combination.
The most fashionable colors for trav
eling suite are chamois and fawn.
Embroidered colars as large as the old
fashioned tippers areagain worn.
Shirred mull garden hats take prec
edence of all others for country bouse
wear.
White costumes are worn out of doors
as much as they are in doors in the coun
try.
Gloves are worn over the tight sleeves
and bracelets and bangles over the gloves.
Flower tabliers and fl >wer fringes were
seen in various forms at the last Queen’s
ball in London.
The silk and Lisle thread buttonless
long gloves so much worn now take the
name of Jersey gloves.
Straw fringes and ornaments imitating
birds, butterflies, agrafles, etc. trim many
fashionable ba s.
The Princes of Wales did not consider
a dress of tulle too youthful for her toilet
at the Queen’s last ball.
Stockings are made more decorative
with embroidery, lace insteps, and gold,
silver, steel, and bead work.
Large hats and poke bonnets of Ma
nila straw are rivalling the porcupine
and rough and ready straws.
Shell pink, precisely the color that
lines the conch shell, is the popular tint
of this color for evening wear.
Tulle bonnets, edged with a full lace
around the shirred brims, are pretty
summer novelties in millinery.
Outside pockets attached to the dress
are no longer fashionable; they must be
detached, or detachable and hanging.
Silver gauge is the rage in Paris, where
it is draped over sutin with silver worms,
appear among the flowers, feathers and
ribbons that trim bonnets and hats.
While the Parisian costume designs
are lengthening the waists of dresses,
those of London are reviving the sriert
waists and other styles of 1812 to 1825.
Sashes and neck ribbons of Roman
scarfs, having all the delicate tints in
them now so fashionable, have the
merits of becoming, crushable and wash
able.
Soiled Ribbons.—Ribbons which are
very much soiled, can be made clean and
will look almost like new ones if washed
in ammonia and water. Use half a tea
spoonful of ammonia to one pint of
water. Some ribbons, after washing or
sponging, do not need to be irmed, and,
in fact, are injured by it. These should
be fastened to a table or long ironing
board, and, when petfectly smooth, let
them alone un'il they are dry. If they
are at ail wrinkled when dry, lay a cloth
which is slightly damp over them and
press with a hot iron. Black silk, if
sponged with cold coffee and ammonia,
will be wonderfully freshened. Use a
flannel cloth to remove dust from silk.
A Reminder. —We are not going to
let you forget that the eggs and sugar
should be beaten together for all kinds
of custards and cakes, in short every
thing that eggs and sugar are used for.
All who try it will find it a great advan
tage ; the sugar is entirely dissolved
then and consequently the cake will be
much lighter. It is useless to beat the
whitesand yolks separately for anything
except white mountain cake, marble, or
something where they are baked sepa
rate. If you will beat the eggs and su
gar long enough, they will make a cake
as light as you would wish to see.
Hubbah I fob our Side. —Many people
have lost their interest in politics and in
amusements because they are so out of sorts
and run down that they cannot enjoy any
thing. If such persons would only be wise
enough to try that celebrated remedy, Kid
ney-Wort, and experience its tonic and
renovating effects, they would soon be hur
rahing with the loudest. In either dry or
liquid form it is a perfect remedy for torpid
liver, kidneys or bowels.—Exchange.
A Georgia gentleman says that when
he has had hn first crop of melons he
clips the vines six inches from the root.
New sprouts grow, and there is a second
ciop finer than the first.
Incbease and Decbeask —The census
shows that the proportion of voters to the
population is 1 to 574 100. The proportion
of persons troubled with kidney and liver
disorders has been alarmingly increasing,
but since the almost universal use of War
ner's Safe Kidney and Liver Cure these dis
eases are rapidly diminishing.
Guard well thy thoughts:
Thy thoughts are heard in heaven.
Young.
■Wicked Fob Clergymen —Rev.—.Wash
ington, D- C-, writes: "I believe it to be all
wrong and even wicked for clergymen or
other public men to be led into giving testi
monials to quack doctors or vile stuffs called
medicines, but when a really meritorious
article, made of valuable remediesknown to
all, that all physicians use and trust in daily,
we should freely commend it. I therefore
cheerfully and heartily commend Hopßitters
for the good they have done me and my
friends, firmly believing they have no equal
for family use. I will not be without them.’'
—New York Baptist JVeekly.
Women are everywhere using and recom
mending Parker’s Ginger Tonic because they
have learned from experience that it speedily
overcomes despondency, indigestion, pain or
weakness in the back and kidneys, and other
troubles peculiar to the sex.—Home Journal.

When Dom Pedro was making his tour of

i ears old and lived from that lime to the day of
her death a consistent Christian. Always amia
ble and pleasant, she made friends of all with
whom s.ie was associated. The only child of affec
tionate parents she was greatly Indulged jet
such was the gentleness of her disposition and
the influence of religion upon the heart that -lie
never exhibited any waywardness or selfishness
in her conduct. Being confined by that distrcs
sing disease, consumption, for months bofore she
died she. during all this trying ordeal, displayed
great patience and Christian submls-iveaess
She expressed unwavering confidence in her
Savior, Jesus Christ, and was not afraid to die.
The only regret she expressed at being taken
away soearfy was that she had hoped she might
live to repay her father and mother for their
kindness to herby contributing to their com
fort and happi .e*B in tneir old age, and this
privilege she would now be deprived of. For
some time before her death her great desire seem
ed to be to Impress upon her visitors the value of
religion and the impo'tauce of being prepared

sustain a delicate, tjmid worn-n in the trying
hour and enable her to meet the '• King of Ter

In Memorlam.
Ment’on has been made in The Index of the
death of my ■ anghhr, Mrs Jane W. McCall, wife
of Rev. M. N. McCall, in the town of Cochran
June 10th. Perhaps this was enough—certainly
for hei—and would suffice for those who loved
her moat. But it may be due to a wide spread
acquaintance—mauy frl nds and co.lese school
mates and to doubting, ha t ng Christians to say
a little more. Shespoke of herself ns having be
long d to this class of Christians, but not -o
lu her last days and hours. She quoted the prom
ise, “ As thy days, so shill thy strength be, ” as
having realized In her own soul its faithfulness.
Detecting a change in herself she calmly asked,
“ How long now, doctor.” Being told •• buta lit
tle while," the family and frier ds gathered
around. It is not proposed to describe the scene,
but to some minds and hearts, if not to all pres
ent, it did appear beautiful, sublime, glorious.
Wards of admonition and love and the kiss good
bye was given to all In the room. She caused
her three little boys to kneel by her bed and put
ting her hands on their heads prayed for tl’em as
only a mother’s heart almost, If not quite Inspir
ed. could pray. She admonished them as to
their intercourse with one another, to read the
Bible, to love Jesus. Last came the Doctor to re
Ceive and express good-bye. He added In accents
sad, " 1 have done all I can for you and now
give me your blessing;” and the strong man,
the man of science, knelt whi re the little boys
had knelt, bowed his head and she put both her
hands on it and prayed God to bless and keep
and save Doctor . This did not seem like
dying, but she is gone. Good-bye my child I

REVISED DESCRIPTIVE CIRCULAR OF DELAND, FLORIDA.
January
THE village of DeLand islocate*! five miles east
of our landing, on the St. John’s river, where
river steamboats pass; very near the geo
graphical center, north and south of Volusia
county, and almost in the center of
THE GREAT ORANGE BELT.
This place is about twenty five miles from the
Atlantic ocean, and is almost constantly favored
with a tempered
SEA BREEZE, ,
and from its elevation above the river, its location
among the pines, and its isolation from all stand
ing water, it is peculiarly adapted to the necessi
ties of invalids. This belt of land is about twenty
miles long, and averages about five miles wide, is
gently undulating, an , in our immediate vicini
ty, somewhat hilly. Our lands are
Unsurpassed In Fertility
by any pine region in the State In our village
which is only four years old, we have a
Fine School Building,
used also for union Sunday-school and church
service*. We have dally mails, three genera I mer
chandise stores, one of the largest in South
Florida, a drug store, millinery and notion store.
