RAIN.
BT XDGAR FAWCKTT.
Oh, the rain has many iitfal moods
Ere the merry Summer closes—
Prom the first chirp of the rebin-broods
To the ruin of the roses 1
Through the sunshine's gold her glitter steals,
In the doubtful April weather,
■When the world seems trying how it feels
To be sad and glad together.
Vow and then, on quiet sultry eves,
From ner low persistent patter,
8he would seem confiding to the leaves
An extremely solemn matter.
Then, again, you see her from the sky
Such a mighty flood unfolding,
Thatyou wonder lfold Earth knows why
It receives so hard a scolding!
Tet we learn to fancy, day by day,
As we watch her softly shining.
That she has no cloud, however gray,
But it wears a silver lining!
For in autumn, though with tears she tells
How the lands grow sad and darken,
Tet in spring hc;r drops are tinkling bells
For the sleeping llowers to hearken !
And her tinted bow seems Love's own proof,
As it gleams with colors seven,
Like a stately dome upon the roof
Of her palace, high in heaven !

Food and Drink of Children—Diet
Defore Weaning — Proper Food,
Drinks for Infants—Typhoid Fever;
Disgraceful.
Diet Before Weaning—Milk is the
only natural and proper lood lor infants and
young children. Nature does not afford, nor
can art supply, a substitute. As a general rule,
the mother’s milk should be the only food of an
infant until the teething is completed; or, in
other words,until Nature indicates her readiness
to dispose of more solid nutriment, by the ap
pearance of a full set of teeth. And let it not he
supposed for a moment that milk is drink only,
and not food; for, by reason oi the butter, cas-
eine and other solid ingredients that enter into
its composition, it, when in a natural condition,
contains all the elements requisite for building
up the nervous, muscular and every other tis
ane; and also earthy matters and salts to give
solidity to the koDes;and Nature,in her wise ar
rangements, has not neglected to furnish this
highly compound nourishment with heat-gene
rating materials for the purpose of warming the
bodies of her tender charge through the chem
ical changes that occur in the act of respiration.
The mistaken notion that Nature does not un
derstand her business, that the food provided
by her is not sufficiently nutritions, and that we
can improve on her handiwork, has been large
ly influential in originating and perpetuating
the ruinous practice of stuffing youug children
with all kinds of vile compounds of flour, meat,
wine, etc., in the form of pap, panada, soup,
gruel, and what not? Under this absurd and
unnatural process of feeding, the little unfortu
nate, whose stomach is entirely incapacitated
for such tkiDgs,gets sick with a bowel complaint;
has gripings, disturbed sleep, watery discharg
es, loses flesh, becomes jaundiced, and dies, a
poor, pitiful, emaciated skeleton, notwithstand
ing, or rather, because of all the nourishing
compounds with which it has been so diligent
ly plied. And, alas! the evil is not traced to its
proper source, but is charged to teething, worms,
cold, thrush or ‘thrash’—any thing, except the
true cause. Or, the deluded mother, if she can
find no other cause, charges her loss to a ‘mys
terious dispensation of Providence,’ for which
she is in no way responsible and to which she
must submit with pious resignation. And thus
do the little innocents perish day after day and
year after year; and thus are one-half or more,
of the children who come into the world every
year, sacrificed that same year.
But, some are ready to exclaim: ‘Why, the
man is mad; my mother fed me on fat meat—
gave me whatever 1 wanted, and I am alive and
well to this day; and more than this, I am the
mother of children, and these have been raised
alter the same fashion, and they, too, are alive
and hearty.’
To such I reply by asking if they have never
known men to drink spirits and use tobacco all
their lives, and yet by virtue of a vigorous con
stitution, be able to resist for a long time the
influence of these destructives, and live to an
old age. And what does all this prove? Cer
tainly not that alcohol and tobacco are not inju
rious. These causes only show that some con
stitutions can withstand destructive influences
better than others, while there is every proba
bility that those who so long resist them, would
in their absence live to a very great age. In
short, they only prove that some people are
harder to kill than others. So of children; be
cause stuffing with improper food does not kill
them it is no proof that such things are not
wroDg; aDd though some children may survive
such a course, nature will rebel and must be
conquered through much tribulation. This can
be verified in the experience of most mothers if
they will cast their minds back to those sad days
and nights of weary watching by the couch of
their dear ones, when they had that ‘dreadful
bowel complaint,’ or writhed in convulsions, or
sank in the deep stupor of braiu fever. And
why all this? Are convulsions and bowel com
plaint, and brain fevers natural to children ? Must
they have them as a matter of course? Surely
not—and yet how few escape these diseases, or
some others which have come to be considered
inevitable to childhood!
The truth is, the test majority of the disease
of children are theresult of mismanagement,and
the most common ot all mismanagements is im
proper feeding.
lYliat is Proper Food f—As before
Stated, the mother,s milk, or diluted cow’s milk,
is all that is required for infants until the teeth
ing is completed, or has made considerable
progress, provided the mother is healthy and
vigorous, and gives sufficient nourishment, as
manifested by the growth of the child. If any
fcod besides milk is allowed the first year, it
should be of the lightest and most unirritating
nature, such as rice, arrow-root, tapioca, crack
ers or biscuit crust grated in milk, aDd perhapo
occasionally chicken soup or some other animal
broth not too much impregnated with grease.
In the absence of cow’s milk I have found con
densed milk excellent food for children, and in
many cases it will be found better than any
thing else. Of this more hereafter.
Drinks tor IulantS.-During the first
four or five mouths, the watery part of the milk
will generally be sufficient to satisfy the thirst of
a healthy infant, when its system is not excited
by improper food on its own part, or the part of
its mother; but under the excitement of fever
from any cause, or from teething, water is not
only most grateful but is indispensable for com
fort and recovery. Infants often suffer intense
ly tor water; and through want of knowledge of
this fact ineffectual attempts are often made to
silence their cries by feeding or nursing, when
a few spoonfuls of cool water would act like a
a charm in quieting the little sufferer; and
would be in many cases the best medicine, if
sick. In my next ’i will have something to say
of weaning and raising children by hand.
Typhoid Fever Disgraceful.—‘The
time is coming,’says a distinguished physician,
‘when it will be as disgraceful to have typhoid
fever as it is to have the itoh or Hoe.’ Every body
ought to know that the fearfnl sickness is indi
rectly cansed by taking into the body excremen-
titions matters. These almost always declare
themselves to.the oifactory nerve,and the instant
they are detected, measures should be taken for
their suppression. Fresh earth is a complete
disinfectant, and in the country the cheapest
Next to this copperas water. Let it be sprink
led about in drains and sewers, left standing in
shallow, earthen dishes in siok rooms, and un
pleasant odors will be quenched. Care should
be taken in UBing it, not to tonch any thing that
will receive stain. Lime and plaster of Paris
are exoellent absorbents; carbolic aoidand chlo
ride of lime will sweeten the foulest gutter.”
And he might have added, that the ‘good
time is coming’ when in the progress of hygie
nic knowledge, it will he disgraceful to have
any disease cansed by onr own conduct, as most
diseases are—when a man or woman will he as
much ashamed to plead guilty to an attack of
cholera morbus or dyspepsia from over eating,
as to acknowedge an attack of delirium tremens
from over drinking.
A Lively Letter from China.
Our road wound in its greater length between
fields and farmhouses, through villages, and
past temples in the most perplexing meander-
in gs. Canals and streams had to be crossed on
bridges of long slabs of stone, sometimes dou
ble, but often only single, and so narrow as to
make crossing a precarious undertaking.
The whole surface of the plain was_ covered
with the antnmn cotton crop still standing. The
economic husbandry of China lays hold of eve
ry bit of ground, and not a single rood was lay
ing tallow. In the spring, this vast extent of
cotton-covered ground, now a snowy expanse of
fleecy bells, starred here and there with bright
snlpher-yellow blossoms, had been one huge
field of waving corn. During the rainy months,
such is the fertility of the rich, alluvial soil, it
had produced its third crop—namely,rice. There
was an air of quiet, of peace Jand plenty, pervad
ing the whole district. Its denizens seemed nei
ther to heed nor to require the products of oth
er lands. Villages, there were none to be seen.
The inhabitants dwelt in single homesteads, or
in snug cottages, collected in little groups like
tiny hamlets of three or /our. These pleasant
ly diversified the landscape. Clumps of trees
from between which peered out the quaint cur
ved roof, so marked a feature in the architect
ure of eastern China, cut the sky-line and re
deemed the view from the dull monotony of an
endless plain. The farms bore the aspect of be
ing owned by the well-to-do. As the narrow
path-way passed in front of each prosperous
looking homestead, it widened into a smooth es
planade. On the one hand abroad trench divi
ded the roadway from the fields; on the other
ran a neat lattice fence, deftly woven of split
bamboo—often overgrown by a luxuriant creep
er, which surrounded the little garden and the
various farm-buildings. Within this fence stood
the stately trees which overshadowed the roofs,
and rows cf a slim and gracelul bamboo, grow
ing not in clusters as farther south, but in sin
gle stems. The little plot between the house-
walls and the paling was planted with lettuces |
and other vegetables. The Chinese husbandman
grudges even a corner to garden flowers; but
here and there bloomed a few asters or chrysan
themums, which would put our Temple-garden
shows to shame; and once in a way, the gorge
ous crimson of the gigantic Chinese coxcomb
glowed against the dingy background of the farm
house wall. The first tints of autumn were alrea
dy deepening on the leaves, and rich yellows,
browns and reds added color to a picture which
would otherwise have presented too great a Barne-
neas of hue.
The dwellings invariably faced esplanade,
and filled up an interval in the fence which join
ed them at either end. We will describe one.
It was long and low, without an upper story. The
principal room was in the centre and was en
tered by wide folding doors. Within it the mem
bers of the family who were not in the fields
could be seen at meals or at indoor work. Some
few, perhaps, were weaving long strips of coarse
cotton cloth on the esplanade in front. At a
window was an aged dame whirling a spinning-
wheel, or turning the rollers of the simple ma
chine that frees the white tufts of cotton from
the seeds. A sharp, twanging sound issued from
a chamber at the side. By inquiry we learnt
that it was caused by yourg lads ‘teazing’ the
cotton into thin flakes with a quaint implement
like a fiddle-bow. The stranger was received
with civility, or rather with that absence of in
civility which seems the sum total of politeness
among the Chinese.
A hideous chorus, set up by the yelping curs
which infested every homestead in the neigh
borhood; a sharp reproof from the farmer orflis
lads, which produced silence or low and scarce
ly audible growls; a ready response in panto
mime, to a question in the same form as to the
way; and then a relapse into silence and busy
labor, as though no one of a foreign race was
within a league—such was the stranger’s only
greeting.
The children and younger women retreated
within the gates or hack to the farther corners
of the room, when the strange face of the ‘bar
barian’ was seen approaching. The former had
already donned their winter clothing, as early
and late, the autumn air was fresh and nipping.
The blue blouses and leggiDgs,quilted aDd stuf
fed with cotton, were piled on one above another,
till the little wearers looked like miniature bal
loons. The gait of the women, with their poor
pinched feet,according to the universal custom
in these northern provinces, was ungraceful in
the extreme, and they toddled about in so un
certain a manner as to excite astonishment at
their untiring industry in the fields. Their dress
is tasteless in shape and color; and their fea
tures lacked even the slight share of good looks
possessed by their sisters of the provinces far
ther south.
There was little to attract the stranger to stay,
or to induce him to investigate the style and
processes of the native farm. Foul odors assail
ed his seDse of smell as soon as he approached
one of these latter. Tne ditch between the home
stead and the fields was but a feted sewer. Un
utterable horrors were collected beneath the win
dows by the wayside, and the filth of the gar
ments of men, women and children was such
as must be seen to be believed. The comfort
and even abundance, of which so many signs
were evident, was overlaid by a superlativeness
of dirt, which the squalor attendant on the most
abject poverty can hardly match. The visitor
gladly turned away to continne his walk, and
to contemplate scenes which could only be en
joyed when looked at from afar.
Some way off from the farm rose a pile of build
ings, evidently those of a temple, as shown by
two dark-red poles in front. The walls, once
vermillion, had faded through age and neglect
to a dull orange. The ridge of the curved roof
was ornamented with the scaly dragons so com
mon in the ecclesiastical architecture of the coun
try.
Seen from a distance, there was a certain pio-
tnresqueness in the group. The orange tint har
monized not inaptly with the autumn hues of
the surrounding groves. The bright green and
yellow enamel of the earthenware monsters on
the roof-tree, seen throngh Charles Lamb’s ‘lu
cid atmosphere of fine Cathay,’ brightened a
prospect not too wealthy in gay colors. On close
inspection the charm of a distant view faded
away. The buildings were little better than
squalid barns. A wide opening in the front ex
posed an interior with three altars, and three
hideous deities bedisened with tawdry finery,
rendered almost ghastly by filth and dust. A
gateway at the side admitted to an ill-paved
courtyard. On one side were the dwellings
of the priests and keepers of ths temple, store
houses, and hay-lofts; on the other an odd mu
seum of spare divinities, olad, as the cold weath
er had approached, in faded garments of qnilted
cotton.
Here and there the plain was dotted with
mounds of many sizes and varied shapes, the
sepulchres of maDy generations of farmers of
these Tang-tze shores. Some of these mounds
were freshly made, and preserved their strictly
conical form and sharp apex. Others were fad
ing into the dead level around them, and were
being more encroaohed upon by the ploughs
and spades of the practically minded decend-
ents of the departed agriculturists sleeping be
neath. These barrows were not the only objects
which marked the burial-places of the dead.
Occasionally, tombs of brick with blaok-tiled
roofs and white-washfd walls—miniature copies
of the houses of the living—were met with. In
many cases unbnried coffins, sometimes lightl y
covered with a thin thatch of straw, were lyin g
in the fields waiting till the priests should de
clare the geomatio conditions suitable for com
mitting their mouldering oontents to the
ground.
Turning from these, we came npon a very
different scene in the drama of life. Harsh but
not discordant music was heard coming from a
little group conveying a bride to her new home.
In front marched two musicians, one with a
trumpet, the other with a kind of fife, from
which instruments they occasionally drew out
the fragments of a tune. The bride was hidden
in the recesses of a scarlet-covered ohair. The
bearers and musicians were decked with
unueual finery,.in honor of the oscasion. Smart
official hats with saucer brims and crimson tas
sels were on their heads, and loose garments of
blue silk, covered but scarcely hid their own
private rags. Behind the chair, on litters and
frames of wood, painted a bright vermillion,
were born the bridal presents, and the viands
to be consumed at the wedding-feast—sweet
meats, vegetables, and small roasted pigs. A
few friends or relatives brought up the rear ot
the small cortege as it wound and was lost to
sight among the tombs.
In its many turnings the path again led the
visitor to the near neighborhood of the river.
More music of the same kind, but somewhat
more solemn and sonorous, was audible upon
the right. From behind a clump of trees and
bamboos, in which a snug homestead lay embow
ered, emerged a long procession. In front came
the musicians, then several men carrying staves,
then a gaily dressed object on a triumphal ohair,
and then a body of men and a very few women;
all of whom together—perforce moving along the
narrow path in single tile—made up a goodly
show. Upon the triumphal chair was seated, in
gorgeous robes of scarlet, a divinity of wood with
a pink complexion, a long black beard, aDd Ary
an features. The chair was borne high on the
necks of four stalwart coolies; and by its side,
steadying it as it swayed to and fro in its pass
age along the narrow way, walked with difficul
ty, owing to the narrowness of the path, a grave
citizen of the higher class. Lictors, bearing
stout staves, formed a body-guard. All—bear
ers, lictors, musicians—wore a peculiar head
dress, a kind of tall flower-pot-shaped hat, with
a brim not unlike those seen in illustrations of
the life of our English puritans.
As the procession passed in front of thebome-
steads, the inmates came out and exploded whole
strings ofcrackers. In front of many houses small
altars were placed,on which were burning slender
scarlet tapers, and little sheaves of incense sticks
placed in censers of brass or earthenware. Cflil-
dren were brought out by their mothers, and
taught to render obeisance—to chin-chin, as the
expression in the ‘Pidgin’ dialect is—to the im
age as it was carried by. The blasts of music
grew louder and louder, gongs were sounded,
more crackers were exploded, and the proces
sion turned off to wind about amongst the fields.
Strange and grotesque as it all was, it still re
minded Ihe spectator of the periodical outings
of St. Spiridion6 to bless the vineyards of the
olive-groves of Corfu. Its meaning was thus ex
plained in ‘Pidgin’ by a bystander who had a
slight knowledge of that wonderful dialect.
Thrice a year the divinity is carried forth in sol
emn procession, that sickness may be warded j
off from the country.
Miss Jennie Quillian.
We have received a number of tributes to the
memory of this lady, who was instantly killed a
few weeks ago, by being thrown from a carriage. I
Never was one more deeply mourned by old and
young than is this lady; never was influence j
more profound than that she exerted in the com
munity in which she lived. Yet this was due,
not to wealth or beauty, but to the far nobler
distinction of goodness. Her’s was a pure and
lovely spirit, always seeking to elevate and re
fine onr poor humanity, neglecting no opportu
nity to do a kind action, to throw oil upon
troubled waters, to speak words of encourage
ment to weak souls,hesitating between the paths
of good and evil; above all she was never known I
to say unkind or thoughtless things of others,
and she always interposed the mantle of charity
to cover their failings or errors.
From the many memorial tributes sent by her
mourning friends, we select this, written by a
talented young girl ofDe Kalb County. *
Afar upon the hillside, the autumn glories burn.
But she is gone who taught our souls through na
ture’s works to turn
To the God whose great hand fashioned them. A it!
who will lead us now?
Gone is the gentle voice and eye,the sweet and placid
brow.
It was an hour of darkness our spirits yet retain,
When we knew we should not look upon her living
face again.
Our teacher, our sweet teacher! alas we shall not
hear
Her gentle voice, soft pleading on our often careless
ear.
The Sabbath day shall dawn and pass, and yet with
in the door
Of the chureli where she was wont to sit, she shall
not enter more.
They who have mourned the good and lost, alone
can know the feeling
Of loss and dreary void, that comes upon the spirit
stealing.
Such void we feel to know that she, first in each
good endeavor.
Has passed, with all her usefulness, from earthly
paths forever.
Why should the good thus die ? we ask, when mor
tals need them so.
Heaven has so many stars, it might have spared us
this below.
God’s ways are notrevealed to man, we will not then
complain,
For well we know our gentle friend was lent us not
in vain;
Her lovliness is living in every saddened heart.
The charm of her sweet influence can never more
depart.
And as we muse all lonely, less bitter thoughts will
come.
And we lift our eyes to heaven, and know it is her
home.
And we would not recall her.wholis with Jesus now
We would not rend thehalofrom offher angel brow
No.let us prayerfully recall the lessons she has giv’n
And treading in her footsteps, meet her at last in
Heaven.
