(Tor Tlie Sunny South.] LINES. MY CHILDREN. BY MBS. AUGUSTA EVANS INGE. Life is opening real before you; Shrink not from the coming strife, Though reverses may be many, Overcome them—such is life. Look ! the field is wide before you— Meet the world's confronting band. And with Faith and Truth for armor, Enter bravely—take yom stand. Fortune is a fickle goddess— She may come to you unsought, After years of ease and pleasure, Turn and view the misery wrought. Or for waiting and for watching. From her wheel no prize may fall— To a life of idle hoping, She may never come at all. Fame and pleasure are delusive— Luring with betraying smile— Leading through enchanted regions, All your youth-time to beguile. But in duty, active duty, With the hand, the head and heart— Keeping pace with the world's workers, In its great and busy mart. This alone can give contentment. And your hearts with joy shall thrill, That in doing your whole duty. You have wrought vonr Master’s will. Jngehkim, Cokinth, Miss., July, 1876. and streak of lean, ” we have a combination which seems to suit such cases precisely.

Children, in this disease and in many other of their ailments, often SUFFER FOB WATER. Therefore, they should have sips of cold water frequently; and especially if fever is present and the mouth is hot and dry.

In such cases, small injections of cold water should be used after each evacuation. With this simple treatment, nine cases in ten of cholera infantum can be cured in a short time. And should any case prove unusually obstinate, it should be sent from the city to the country, which will generally be followed by a speedy improvement in all the symptoms. This change is not so urgently demanded here in Atlanta as in New York, and other cities less favorably sit uated than ours; but even here the case may be much facilitated by sending children to the ern all marriages. We, ourselves, have little faith in these marriages of convenience.

A reporter who went the rounds with one of the doctors thus describes the scene in one of these houses; “On the floors, propped up in chairs, in bed, in the arms of mothers and sisters, were found and reporters, leaving their proper sphere—the discussion of the common topics of the day— presume to give information on the subject of health, about which the most of them know no more than their readers.

But what I have to say now is, that many of our newspapers, not satisfied with telling and en- nearly every case was, give them fresh air, and, strangely enough, this seemed to be the one thing they could not have. Medicine they can get for nothing, plenty of advice, but fresh air must be worked for and paid for. They must struggle with the weary child for miles to the river, and pay for fresh air. The trouble and the expense prevent half the mothers doing this, and so the only hope.is lost, and the children die.” of these mothers have been reared in poverty and filth themselves, hardly knowing what it is to take a single sniff of pure, health-giving air; and, therefore, knowing nothing of its virtues, either practically or theoretically. How can they be expected to appreciate properly this great restorative when they know nothing of it from experience, and when they do not even know the meaning of such words as hygiene, physiology, chemistry, or any other term con nected with the science of health ? But this is not the only difficulty. There is not only an absepce of all knowledge of the true science of dorsing what others say, aspire to give the pub lic the benefit of their own great store of med ical knowledge.

We often hear landlords prefer some of their tenants because they have no children. Advertisements, and houses to let or board, are qualified by the words, “without children.” Chil dren are an incumbrance, a nuisance, and are not wanted. Supposing they change the order, and say. “Select circles and classes of society, and single persons and childless parents,” houses and homes where no little lips prattle, no little voices cry. How stiff and prim the parlors, how orderly and mechanical the company, how came o’er the spirit of my dream.’ I imagined that I loved no more. Growing more reckless every day, I accepted suitor after suitor, till now I am engaged to two merchants, a farmer, a law yer, and an editor. Yesterday I attended an old-fashioned barbecue, and there I met the only man I ever loved. I was with him all the afternoon, and last night he came here to Madi son expressly to see me, and during the evening he said that lie loved me better than all else on earth. 1 was so happy till I thought of my be havior: and oh!
