WEEDS.
BY FANNY BBIK'OLL.
Alone the ronJnlilc* *»<> up the
Peering demurely Into the rill*;
Lifting their faces up to the sky:
Throwing their kiuai to each
purer by;
Trailing their gowna all over the
grasses;
Waving their hands to a bird as
ft passes;
Calling the butterflies—laughing
JReggul K and rollicking all the
long day.
How the winds love theml How
he bees linger I
How the birds woo them, each
happy young singer!
How the sun kisses them, eager
and warm I
How t he grass shelters them safe
ly from barn: 1
Who Is so Jolly, who is so free,
Os all the bright blossoms th ■ t
grow on the lea?
Purnle and azure, golden and
red.
Some wlthbig bonnets and some
with bare head;
Borne with gold stars on their
foreheads so sweet,
Some with green mautlesstraight
down to their feet;
Born 1 like a drlf. of Msysnow,
pure and while.
Some that are dark as the mid
die o' night;
Borne with sliy eyes that are hid
den 'neatii lashes;
Borne with the largest and gayest
of sashes;
Borne with lips sober and som
with arch smiles—
All wiih the bonniest, gladdtst
of wiles.
Amber and rosy, snowy and blue.
Some Hint ate false, and some
that are true;
Yellow and crimson, sapphire
and pink—
All are as fresh as the dews that
they drink.
Along all th- ioa<’sides, down by
the brooks,
Hiding away in m igtca. nooks
Down In the meadows, always
aglow—
Dean si ot all the things that
grow.
The Influentia i.
Woman. —We generally
picture her as a leader of
fashion, stately and beau
tiful, the center of her
coterie. Her moral quali
ties are not considered at
all; and that is where we
err. When the rich woman
can show to the world only
a life of fashion and idlc-
ness, she is deserving of censure and
disgrace, so long as there are hungry
bodies, minds or souls crying for some
of her abundance. To whom n uch is
given muoh is required. Let public
opinion mete out its wrath of censure
upon the fashionable, idle woman, who
is a disgrace to her sex because of her
aimless, useless life. Let the expres
sion “best society” mean those who do
good deeds, who leave the world hap
pier and better for having lived, in
stead of those who have been most
idle and aimless. The “influential
women” of every community are those
who are doing and daring, that the
world may be made purer and better,
whether they are fashionable or un
fashionable it matters not.
Useful Hints.—ls your coal fire is
low, throw on a tablespoonful of salt
and it will help it very much. —In
icing cakes, dip the knife frequently
into cold water. —In boiling meat for
soup, use cold water to extract the
juices. If the meat is wanted for it
self alone, plunge in boiling water at
once.—You can get a bottle or barrel
of oil off any carpet or woolen stuff by
applying dry buckwheat plentifully
and faithfully. Never put water to
such a grease spot, or liquid of any
kind.—Broil stake without salting.
Salt draws the juices in cooking; it is
desirable to keep these in if possible.
Cook over a hot fire, turning frequent
ly, searing on both sides. Place on a
platter; salt and pepper to taste. —
Beef having a tendency to be tough
can be made very palatable by stewing
gently for two hours, pepper and salt,
taking out about a pint of the liquid
when half done, and letting the rest
boil into the meat. Brown the meat
in the pot. After taking up, make a
gravy of the pint of liquid saved. —A
small piece of charcoal in the pot with
boiling cabbage removes the smell. —
Clean oilcloth with milk and water ; a
brush and soap will ruin them.—
Tumblers that have had milk in them
should never be put in hot water. —A
spoonful of stewed tomatoes in the
gravy of either roasted or fried meats
is an improvement.
The dead cannot be raised, nor if your
lungs are badly wasted away can you be
cured by the use of Dr. Fierce’s “Golden
Medical Discovery.” It is, however, un
equaled as a tonic, alterative, and nutritive,
and readily cures the most obstinate cases of
bronchitis, coughs, colds, and incipient con
sumption. far surpassing in efficacy cod liver
oil. Send two stamps for Dr. Pierce s
pamphlet on Consumption and Kindred
Affections. Address World’s Dispensary
Medical Association, Buffalo, N. Y.
Drink Your Milk Slowly.—There
is no doubt that the use of milk, as a
beverage, should be favored more than
it is. Nothing can be more healthy.
But then it should be drank slowly,
and at intervals, so as to allow each
mouthful to be rightly dealt with by
the gastric juice, and reduced to curd ;
for otherwise, it will lie on the stom
ach, like a lump, half digested. Nor
should milk be taken on a full stom
ach, for there is then insufficient di
gestive power to dispose of it. Even
the best things become injurious, |
when improperly dealt with, milk
among them. _
Fran eminent Wilmer Brinton, M. D.,
Baltimore: “ I have used Colden s Liebigs
Liquid Extract of Beef and Tonic Invigorn*
tor in my practice, and have been much
gratified with the result. As a tonic in all
cases of Debility, Weakness, Anaemia, Chios
rosis, etc., etc., it cannot be surpassed.

Small Savings.—The man who
saves a little every year is on the road
to prosperity. It may not be possible
to save much. If not, save a little.
Do not think a dollar or a dime too
little a sum to lay by. Everybody
knows how little expenditures get away
with large sums. But few seem to know
that the rule works both ways. If a
dime spent here and a dollar there
soon make a hole in a man’s income,
so does dimes and dollars laid away
soon become a visible and respectable
accumulation. In this country, any
man may make himself independent,
or keep himself under the harrow for
life, according as he wastes or spends
his small change. How many things
do individuals and families buy that
they do not need, or cannot affoid.
Think twice before you spend that
small coin. Do not be st ingy or mean,
but also don’t be foolishly or self
indulgent. The self-indulgent person
is far more like’y to be ungenerous
than the self-denying one. The money
wasted on hurtful things alone—the
•medicines and drugs we mingle with
our diet in the form of tea, tobacco,
and the like —stand on the very
threshold of prosperity, and bar the
A’ay of thousands to a home in their
old age.— Mercantile Solution.

Habitual costiveness is the bane of nearly
every American woman. From it usually
arises those disorders that so surely under
mine their health and strength. Every
woman owes it to herself and to her family
to use that celebrated medicine, Kidney-
Wort. It is the sure remedy for constipa
tion, and for all disorders of the kidneysand
liver. Try it in liquid or dry form. Equally
efficient iu either form.—Boston Sunday
Budget.
Saving.—A saving woman at the head
of a family is the very best savings
bank established. The idea of saving is
a pleasant one; and if the women im
bibed it at once, they could cultivate it
and adhere to it; and thus, when they
are not aware of it, they would be lay
ing the foundation of a competent secu
rity in a stormy time, and shelter in a
rainy. The best way to comprehend it
is to keep an account of all current ex
penses. Whether five hundred dollars
or five thousand dollars are expended
annually, there is a chance to save
something if the effort is made. Let the
housewife take the idea, act upon it, and
she will save something where she
thought it impossible. This is a duty,
yet not a sordid avarice, but a mere obli
gation that rests upon women as well as
men.
«
“The God’s help those who help them*
selves,” and Nature invariably helps those
who take Warner’s Safe Kidney and Liver
Cure.
The Blessed Sabbath.—Make the first
day of the week a bright, cheerful, sweet
day at home, and it will shed its radi
ance on the other six days of work and
play. Do not limit its sacred freedom
by domestic “Blue Laws,” which woulu
make it to the little ones anything but
“day of all the week the best.” But
with music and prayer, with the Bible
and other good reading, with cheerful
conversation and gentlegraces, with the
glow of the altar and the spirit of the
sanctuary, with thankfulness and love
to God and man, any Christian house
hold can make it a perpetual blessing to
themselves and the community in which
its lights are kept burning.— Faith and
Works. *
Chronic looseness of the bowels results
from imperfect digestion. The cause lies in
the torpidity of the liver, and the cure is take
Simmons Liver Regulator to aid digestion,
to stimulate the dull and sluggish liver, and
to regulate the bowels.
Millions of intelligent women say that
Dobbins’ Electric Soap (made by Cragin &
Co., Phils ) is, in every respect, the best soap
ever made, and will do three times the work
of any other. Try it.
OBITUARIES.
ABERCROMBIE-Died. September 28. 188’.
at Lake Como, Florida, Miss Ellie Abercrom
bie.
In the death of our dear young sister, her
family loses one whose domestic gifts and
graces made home happiest ; whose social
capabilities and readiness gave her great, and
growing usefulness; whosesweet and devoted
Christ ian spirit illuminated equally t he pal h
ways of life and death. Noone asks, “Was
she a Christian?*’ Her life has left behind
Iter no uncertain sound: but simple, modest,
conscientious and faithful her record,
“known and read of all.” accompanies her to
the rest that remaineth for the people of
God.
Good-bye, dear Ellie, sure there is
Os joy thou may st resign
Not lung to match Ihe perfect bliss

improving every opportunity to prepare for
that eternal life beyond the grave.

Floorcloths.— Do not put carpets in
your closets; oilcloth or matting is much
better, and can be easily kept free from
dust. Matting after being swept should
be wiped with a,damp cloth. Hot salt
and water will thoroughly cleanse it and
will not discolor it.
Don’t get the chills! If you are subject to

bowels and kidneys in good free condition.
When so, you will be free horn all attacks.
The remedy to use is Kidney-Wort. It is

of our landing, on the St. John’s river, where
river steamboats pass; very near thfxgeo

county, and almost in the center of
THE GREAT ORANGE BELT.
This place is about twenty-five miles from the

and from its elevation above the river, its location
among the pines, and its isolation from all stand

miles long, mid averages about five miles wide, is
gently undulating, an , in our immediate vicini

which is only four years old, we have a

Telephone to our landing. Our boarding houses

For the information of invalids, we will add that
several good physicians are settled in our midst,
cultivating oranges as a business, but affording
excellent medical aid when required. They re
port the following ?
Remarkable Health Record:
“During the years 1878, 1879 and 1880, within a
circuit of six miles diameter, DeLand being the
center, with a population averaging over 250,
many of whom came here invalids, there have
been but four deaths. Two were infants under
six months, aud two were men who came here
sick.”
A Chain of Lakes
northwest of us affords protection from frost so
perfect that the extreme cold of December 29th,
1880 did not injure our orange trees or fruit.
