Life on a lighthouse, situated as is Lime Hock light, is not the gruesome roomed thing generally imagined. With a six- house there are cares that fill the day, and like any other “gude wife,’’Miss Lewis has her pots, kettles, and pans tc attend to, rooms to sweep, beds to make, papers and magazines to read, letters to write, and all the various et easterns tc manage which fill the time of a busy A . det , oted , church , woman, she , woman. spends ._uuday on shore whcnevei her brother is at home. Ws the only woman light-house that keepei will . country, the last in our ana one be gnen a light-—for such is the verdict of the powers that be--Miss Lewis has other duties that are unique. Exactly at rundown she must light her lamp, and precisely at midnight another must be substituted. All through the night it must be watched, and Miss Lewis likens this constant care to that demanded by an infant /I he wick might flare or burn ( ^ V ’ chimney smoke or crack, °i any of thehundved-and-one accidents happen that arc ever taking place with the use ot kerosene oil. fehe can but catch eat- naps; lienee the nearness of her sleeping room to the light.

The responsibility is no small one, for the slightest neglect of duty or accident to her light or lenses would bring a report from the first sea- man who suffered by it. Lives hang on her vigilance, but to her credit no light on all the coast is as regularly does or other per- feetly attended to. nor anv gain from the Government Inspector daily so high a report. Miss Lewis keeps a expense book, noting just the amount of wick and oil burnt, and the time to a seeond of the lighting and putting record out of of the lamp. In addition, a the weather must be entered daily. As Lime Rock light is a first-class light, no rations are allowed, the yearly salary be¬ ing $750 and two tons of coal.—[Ladies’ Home Journal. Why Do The Heathen Rage. Not long ago the British ambassadoi it the Persian court publicly presented t copy of the Bible to the shah.

A Shrinking Desert. Already the area of California’s desert lauds is shrinking like the waters of Lake Tulare, and it will be odIv a few years before it will no longer be seen on the maps of the State, Every day people are finding out that desert docs not mean irreclaimable, and that underneath the grav and drab desolation of these lands lies the richest of fertility, . All the elements of productiveness need the revivi¬ are latent there, and only wake into fying influence of water to activity and usefulness. Eastern capital- IStS have not been slow to see this and tc act accordingly. The latest evidence The Census May Not Please You, But You Will be Fully Satisfied With Hood’s Sarsaparilla Banishing Flies. Flies will not pass through a net made of thread, tine silk or wire stretched across an open window, even though the meshes are an inch apart, unless there is a window °r light behind it. This af- fords a ready means of excluding these insects from all our rooms which have windows on one side only without keep- ing the latter closed. If, however, there are windows on more than one side of the rooms, flies can only be kept out bv using fine gauze for the purpose. The best wav to destroy flies in a room is to expose on a shallow plate the following mixture: Quassia chips (small), one-quatter ounce; water, one pint; boil ten minutes, strain, and add of treacle four ounces. Flies will drink this with avidity, and are soon destroyed by it. Cold green tea, very strong , and sweetened with sugar, when set about the room in saucers, will also attract flies and destroy them. An in- genious person lias devised the following plan-. Observing that a fly always walks upward, he made a window screen di- vided in half. The upper half lapped over the lower, with an inch space be- tween. As soon as a fly alighted on the screen it proceeded to walk upward, and thus walked straight 45 out of doors. Not being able to walk down it this had no way to return to the room. By means a which room can always be quickly light. cleared of flies, seek the Our Eyes. The eyes are truly the “windows of the soul,” but if these windows become marred and injured, looking inward to the soul, a person must appear very like a house whose windows are stuffed with old hats and wads of battered garments. Too great care cannot be bestowed on the eves. Late hours, incessant reading or study, excessive labor by lamp, gas, or electric light—all injure the eyes. Dissipation or f re quent rubbing also fatigue, or much weeping will redden the eyes, and entire- ]y des t 10 y their beauty of expression, children should never suffer sudden changes from darkness to light, nor should their hair be allowed to failover the forehead into the eyes.

This famous remedy was discovered by the eminent Dr. John Bull, of substitute Louisviiie, for Ky. quinine, It is intended as a scientific this drug. and is rapidly superseding the use of For any ailment that may indicate a need of quinine. Smith’s Tonic Syrup may be pre¬ scribed in preference and with more satisfac¬ tory results, as it never leaves any unpleasant the head, after-effects, such as fullness of headache, buzzing in the cars, deafness, convulsions, un¬ easy or aching sensations, nausea, good medicinal paralysis, etc. It has all the qualities of quinine and is free from its many evil tendencies. As a tonic, anti-periodic and antipyretic, it is unexcelled by any drug known to medical science. In cases of malaria, colds, influenza, inordinate temperature of the body, feverish symptoms, chills and fever, etc., no other remedy can be used with such certainty of beneficial effects. It is a certain antidote for the evil influences of malaria and climatic changes.

A very interesting column in northern railroad papers is devoted to accident statistics. Accidents will happen, but the lingers are valuable nevertheless, and peculiarly suggestive to railroad people. The record of The Railroad Gazette, for June accidents, includes 64 collisions, 07 derailuunts and six other accidents, a total of 137 accidents, in which 58 per¬ sons were killed and 253 injured. In a majority of cases the official in¬ vestigation leaves “cause unexplained.” happened Of all accidents, 32 per cent to passenger trains and 68 per cent to freights. Of flu* 58 people killed, 41 were employes, 14 passengers, and 2 “eth¬ ers.” Fifty-five people were killed by de¬ fects in the road, 31 by defects operating, in equip¬ ment, 147 by negligence m malicious¬ 9 by unforseen obstructions and ness, 64 by unexplained causes. Thirty two accidents caused the death of one or more persons each, and 44 caused injuiy but not death, leaving 61 (45 per cent of the whole) which caused no personal in¬ jury worthy of record.
