Our Explanation.
!u entering upon this tusk, 1 want
to say, it must suffice for the reader to
exoect .only a brief and conderi‘ei
statement of points made in runnit f.
over the terms or words used, by the
ancient anatomist, in describing the
different parts of the human body.
While the sun or the light, are term?
employed to represent the most bril
liaut period in our lives, the moon or
the stars, represent that state, whan
we have bee -me weaker, not so stroDg
; and robust, as we were in years gone
by, our falling off from cur former self.
wi ! l be readily discovered. Compare
to our vision or eyesight in a dark or
cloudy day, the light is obscure and
things appear darkened. Clouds re
turn after the raiu, our heart burdens
coming on us again, after we have shed
tears in torment, like the falling of rain.
When the keepers of the house shall
tremble. The hands and arms become
palsied and tremble, not steady now,
like they were in the years of our for
mvr manhood.
“The strong men shall bow them
B“lves.'’ The knees and legs, that
once was able to bear up, and move
with unfaltering step with all their
load, are now bent-aud weak, their for
mer strength and quick motion have
departed, no more to return. “The
grinders cease.” The teeth worn out
and nearly all gone, hut few of them to
he found in the mouth of the old worn
out mau.
“Those that look out of the windows
be darkened.” The optic Derves
which receives impressions, etc. The
eves, called windows, become ittcapa
ble of seeing, objects that we once
could see plaiuly, oow appear darken
ed. “The doors shall be shut in the
streets, when the sound of the grind
ing is low.”
The lips is here called the doors, they
shall be shut iu the streets. The old
man with jut teeth, has to keep his
mouth closed, and his lips compiessed
together, while he chewing his food to
preveut it from falling out ol his mouth.
The streets are those deep long furrows
that you see running clear across his
time plowed face. “The sound of the
griudiug is low.” You don’t hear him
now chewing the hard crust of bread,
as iu former days—the grinding is
low, »e makes uo chompiug uoise now
in what chewing he can do, “He
shall rise up at the voice of the bird.”
The nerves aud limbs of the old man,
worn'down with long years of toil and
over burden, finds the night too long
for him. He is easily awakened. “The
vo’ce of the bird.” The crowiug of
the cock, at the 3 1 watch of the night
arouses him and be rises up He be
comes so tired, laying on his bed, he
makes haste to get up, and change his
position, thereby seekiug for more de
siiable rest. “The daughters of music
brought low.” The vocal or voice,
once eudued with strength and great
variety of tone, becomt * feeble and
squeaking; pleasure in bis song is no
longer, his tones are now m uruful, aud
no one can enjoy bis failure in music

Cured La Grippe Twice.
Mr. W. fl. Poole, deacon First Bap
tist church, Mt. Vernon, 111., says:
“Last winter I bad a spell of La Grippe
which lasted me nearly all winter,
trying various remedies, I used a
bottle of Royal Germetuer, which cured
me after all else failed. I was attacked
again this winter with La Grippe, aud
Germetuer cured me again. I used uo
other medicine.” “Once taken, never
forsaken.” That’s the way it is with
Dr King’s Royal Germetuer as a rem
edy for Grippe, Colds aud Lung
Troubles. It cures pleasantly, safely
and quickly. SI. Six for $5 For
iale by druggists.
The following tribute to winter is of
unknown origion: “It snows aud it
hlows aud it stings your nose—makes
all creation shiver; it bites your toes,
increase your woes and freezes up the
river. The frost nips all, both great
and small, the dismal, dreary winter;
it freezes type, it busts the pipes, and
vexes sore the printer. So let her roll
—we mean the coal—it takes the cash
in winter; so please be kind, mike up
yonr mind to settle with the printer.”
And we hope this broad hiut will in
duce those who have long promised to
bring us cash to redeem their word.

Spoiling Our Pictures.
The famous Thomas Nas‘, ir. a pub
lic exhibition of bis skiii. once perform
•d a strange feat with his brushes.
Faking a canvas about six feet long by
iwo feet wide, he placed it nearly hori
zontal upon an easel before his audience
aud began to sketch rapidly a landscape,
lu quick succession appeared green
meadows, with cattle, fields of grain,
he farmhouse and surrouudiug build
ngs, with orchard near; while over the
bright sky, with fleecy clouds, seemed
to pour heaveu’s beuediction upon the
scene below.
At length, no finishing touch was
necessary. Still the artist held his
brush, as he stepped aside to receive
hearty plaudits of the admiring audi
ence. When the applause had subsided,
Mr. Nast stepped hack to the canvas, as
if he had not quite completed the pic
ture.
Taking darker colors, he applied them
most lecklessly to the canvas. Out
went the bright sky. “Did you ever
see a picture like this ?” he asked, as
blotted out medows, fields, orchards
and builings. Up, down aud across,
passed the artist’s hand, until the laud
scape was totally obliterated, and noth
ing but a daub, such as a child might
make, remained.
Then, with a more satisfied look, he
stepped aside, laying down his brushes,
as if to say, “It is finished.”
But no applause came from the per
plexed audience as Nast then ordered
the stage attendants to place a gilded
frame around the ruined work of art,
and turned it to a vertical positiou .
I’he mietery was revealed, for before
the audience stood a panel picture of
a beautiful waterfall, the water plung
ing over a precipice of dark rock, sktr
ted with trees and verdure. It is need
less to say that the audieuce burst into
rounds of applause.
And thus it is that a great artist work.
We paint our landscapes. How beau
tiful we make them 1 All manner of
earthly prosperity, with bright skies
above. We imagine our sketching per
fect, hut au unseen hand finishes, more
grandly, our crude designs.
Houses and lots, farms and merchan
dise, disappear. Yes ! our portraits of
loved faces are blotted out. We cry,
“hold, hold !” but the baud that ap
plies the darker colors move relentless
!y ou. We bewail nur ruiued pictures
because we have not tLe true angle of
vision.
At last God turns the canvas, and
there appears a work, not for time, but
for eternity.
While Mr. Nast was spoiling the
landscape to produce the fall*, he
might have said to the mystified aadi
euce, “What I do thou kuowest not
now, but thou slialt know hereafter.”
What puzzled the audience was plain
to him. In each destructive stroke
upon one picture he saw a constructive
of the other; and what in the providence
of God appears so strange to us, is
most clear to him, who would save us
from being “conform to this world,”
and would help us to be transformed,
by the renewal of our minds, that we
“may prove what is that good and
acceptable aud perfect will of God.”

Just About Girls,
The sleepy suburban passengers
who were nodding oyer their evening
papers awoke with a start when the
two stnaitly g.iwned young women
fluttered in and took possession of one
of the cross seats.
The other passengers eyed the big
black velvet hats, so heavily feather
ed, and studied the trimness of the
huge sletved jackets. Then after tak
ing an inventory of veils and gloves,
pretty eyes aud fluffy curls, they delib
crate! y folded their newspapers and
made preperations for being amused.
And they were not disappointed
For, after patting the bunch of store
violets arnoug the ribbons of her muff,
the dark eyed girl said :
“Of course I wasn’t at all surprised.
Every girl knows when a man is going
to propose to her.”
“Certainly”—this from the blue
eyed girl, with a knowing curl of her
lips.
“In the first place,” continued Miss
Dark Eyes, “he let the secret out com
pletely about a week before hand. He
spent about three hours telling me
why he had made up his mind to re
main a bachelor all his life. As soon
as he made that move I began to look
arouud to discover what style of dia
monds were the newest. After that
he was given to delivering long lec
tures on the superiority of friendship
as compared with love. That change
of tactics caused me to fix up a sam
pie of wedding invitations.
“And so things went on in shat way
until he declared his intentions of
joining an arctic expedition. That
settled the question iu my mind, and
1 told a few confidential friends that
we were engaged. Of course, when
the awful event did actually happen
I pretended to be surprised out of my
seven senses, but I know very well that
I was aware of the condition of his
mind long before he was himself.”
Miss Blue-Eyes laughed disdain
fully.
“Men think they cau hoodwink us
girls,” said she, “and all the time they
are as transparent as newly washed
window glass.”
Love’s Fond Dream.
A young lady of our town who it is
believed will one day wed a certain
prosperous farmer not so vsry far
away, in writing to a close friend some
time since made use of this expression :
“It’s the dream of my life to ha a far
mer's wife and meander down life’s
flowery pathway.”
Now we would say to that maiden
fair, that is a nice dream to think about
bat when you have tried that meander
ing business awhile you will discover
a big difference between the dream and
the reality. About the time yon have
to meander out aud get the old cow
back in the lot, and meander down to
the woods and get an armful of bark to
get dinner, yuur husband having mean
dered off aud forgot the stove wood,
and you have to meander over to your
neighbors to borrow a little sugar, meal
or coffee. You will then have a faint
reminder that this meandering business
on the farm isu’t what your fund dream
had pictured it to he.
Sciatica Cured.
Wm. Price, Luttsville, Mo., writes :
“I was afflicted with Sciatic Rheuma |
tism, aud had lost the use of one arm
and one leg for nine years. I went to
Hot Springs, and also tried different
doctors, but found no cure until I tried
Botauic Blood Balm. It made me
sound and well. lam well known in
this community.” See advertisement
elsewhere.
A community is like a man, because
it is made up of a whole lot of mem If
you want to prostrate business in a
town start the story going that the
town has no trade, no enterprise, no
pluck, no prospects. Above all get the
people of the town themselves to talk
ing to this dolorous strain. Let all the
merchants sigh and swear that trade
never was so dull, let the minister groan
in the pulpit, and let the corner states
man prophesy a hard winter, a back
ward spring aud a dry summer. Do all
these thing) and keep on doiug them
and you will kill any town on earth.
Rev. Sam Jones is whooping up the
sinners in Memphis. In his first ser
mon he said : “Some of yon think if a
man’s honest in his opinions he’s all
right, but you are wrong. There's
many a man in hell who believed hou
esilv there was uo such place, but if
you could fish him up, bud, he would
say: ’Boys, I was mistaken ; don’t
you be fooled, too.’ ”

The proprietor of one of the princi

that his head clerk, for whom he had a
j real liking had for s uue reason fallen
into a great melancholy, and though
jhe tried bis best fie could not find out
what was the matter with .the young
mau.
One day at last the sufferer owued
that he was iu love.
“Well marry her,” said the chief.
“Oh, but”—here the young man
nearly broke down—“she belongs to
one of the best families in the towu
the parents will never consent,
“Pooh; your position is good, your
name honorable; they won’t refuse. I
will demaud the girl for you Dors
she love you?”
“Yes; but it ■no use; her parents
wou’t listen.”
“Well, then, elope with her Do I
know the girl?”
“Yes; she will be at your ball next
Tuesday; awful pretty.”
“Perfect! Now listen to me,” said
the employer. "Leave the hall quiet
ly with her. Joseph, my coachman,
will wait for you at the door, drive you
to the station. He will ask no ques
tions. When you are out of the way,

“Is that really your advice?” glee
fully exclaims the youth. “Do you
waut me to do it ?”
“Yes, 1 command you to do it. Now,
cheer up.”
The next day the clerk proposed the
plan to his sweetheart, who made some
objections at first, but overcome by his
reasons she said at last: “Well, if he
really orders it, I mint obey.”

(Promthe Argus and l\tlrtot , Montpelier, J-T.)
Kijfht y»'ars ago Geo. Hutchinson moved
from Bradford to Chelsea, Vt., and bought
the suwiuill at the latter place. He was
known as one of the strongest men in that
section. On Dec. 10/92 while at work in
tl»- mill, he was struck in the hack by a
flying board, which seriously injured him
and incapacitated him for work of any
kii d. As s result of this, Locomotor Ataxia
set in, (this is a form of paralysis which
deprives the patient of all use of his lower
limbi.) The Argus A Patriot interviewed
Mr. Hutchinson to day, and his story is
here given in his own words.
“ My back ached continually nnd my legs
began to grow numb nnd to be less and less
U'lihlo. By the 16th of April I could do
absolutely nothing and was scarcely able to
stand. Mv physicians advised me to go to
tlio Jlary Fletcher Hospital at Burlington,
to he treated, nnd I took their advice. \Vhen
1 left home my friends bade me good-lira,
never expecting to see tne alive again.
The physicians at the hospital told me that
my case was a serious one and I was com
pletely discouraged. J remained nt the
hospital seven weeks and took the medicines
which tlie doctors gave me. I felt better nt
the hospital nnd thought that I was recover

ment, which I did for two mouths, and also
bad nil electric battery under their advice.
The improvement, however,did not continue
on I 1 began to give up hope. August Ist,

assistance, and if I gnt down upon the floor, I
could not get un alone. About this time I

bought some without telling anyone what I
waagoing to do. After I had been taking
them some time I found that, for tlie first time
in months I was able to walk down to the

cuss the marked improvement in mv health.
As I continued the medicine I continued to
improve, and soon recommenced work

late. About forty or fifty tous of the
loose earth fell with a crash upon th«
unfortunate young lady, burying her
alive.
The children were partly covered
but managed to extricate themselves
and gave the alarm.
Mr. Taylor and others rushed to
the place and extricated the lifeless
form of his daughter. She had
probably been instantly killed. It
is thought that her neck was brokeu
anil her litnbs were badly crushed
by the weight of the avalanche of
dirt.
Who Aro the HeroinesV
Published by request.— Ed.
The great heroines are uot always
found in books and ve,rseß. Many a
little woman acting bravely her part,
all unknown to tlio world, is uncon
sciously, perhaps, waging and winning
a battle against adverse foes, just as
though she were a Joan of Arc leading
hosts on to victory. The girl who la
bors in the kitchen in order to support
herself aud stay the hand of poverty or
infamvis acuou I J»<* uui —-r
Tffe wife who, with an Invalid husband
>r a trifling husband, sustains herself
and little children acts the part of a
heroine. The widow who relies on her
industry for a livelyhood, with orphaned
otns to whom she must be both father
and mother, acts the part of a heroine.
The young girl who braves the fatliious
of life and attends school in her shabby
clothes amid the sneers perhaps of her
companions until .she has filled her
mind with useful knowledge, has in
her the elements of heroism. The
young w man who qualifies herself for
business that she may help an aged and
afllictsd mother, or who prefors to
make some money that she can call her
own, rather than depend upon a hard
working father for all that she receives,
is worthy of being called a heroine.
Hundreds of such heroines are to be
found in shops and factories, in stores,
in kitchens and schools—women who
go forth to labor.

Friend— ‘ No, did you ?”

book to another agent’s wife, while he
was out canvassing his neighbors for
the same book.”
