Although scientists are i?ot in perfect accord as to the influence that forests exert upon climatic conditions, never theless there is sufficient agreement among them for us to know that they do exert powerful and beneficial influ ences in many directions. The forest acts like a great sieve, and retains the line particles of the soil, which the in fluence of the air and sun, the forest and rain, and the action of the number less roots have decomposed. In all for est countries the changes of tempera ture are not so severely felt as in a tree less country, or on the open plains, and it is a popular saying that the forest streams are cool in summer and warm in winter. Theforfists not onty regulate the flow of water, but they purify it. Where the water of a stream has been polluted, as by sheep washing, for in stance, after having passed for a few miles through a shady and dense forest, the water appears as dear as it was pre viously. Again, it is thoroughly well establish ed that the presence of large tracts of timber has a well defined influence upon the rainfall of the districts in which they are situated. Certain parts of France which have been denuded of their forests are subjected to disastrous overflows, which occur almost annually and cause great destruction and distress, although such visitations were entirely unknown in the previous century while the forests were yet intact. In our own country, as well, the same effects have been observed, and the destruction of forests has proceeded so rapidly in Prus sia of late years that the government has passed a law protecting timber. It was found that the climate in many dis tricts was changing, and rivers and lakes were becoming shallow in consequence of tiie wholesale cutting away of wood This feature of sylvan influence is oft en adverted upon, but there is another manuer in which the presence of trees exerts an influence that is not so gener ally known. Close observers have ascertained that rivers running through treeless tracts of country are nearly, if not quite, des titute of fish, and that fish will desert a stream from which the timber has been removed, although they previously •swarmed therein. In the propagation of fish it is not enough to place the fry in the water; they must be provided with food, and the best means to do this is to preserve the border trees, and insure a steady supply of water and food by preserving the forest whence the supply of food is derived. If new forests are cultivated on the barren ranges, many a stream, now nearly empty during the dry seasons, will be refilled with fish and food for the many. To see the conversation and cultivation of forests beginning to receive even a modicum of the attention it deserves is a matter of rejoicing. ten miles on a shopping eqpedition and preserve her amiability, but will whip her child cruelly because it has spilled her cologne or lost her thimble. A man is proud of his muscle, and will stand up and be buffeted by a boxer and puin- meled into a human poultice by an an tagonist and call it sport, but if his baby boy runs against him and jogs his coffee cup, or a passerby on the street jostles him, he is mad enough to set Constantinople on fire. We have seen going the rounds sev eral compositions written by boys on the subject of girls. Here is a little girl’s composition on boys, in which she shows that her sex, no matter how young, can get ahead of the boys ev ery time: “Boys are men that have not grown as big as tlydr papas, and girls are young women that will be young ladies by and by. Man was made be fore woman. When God looked at Adam He said to Himself, ‘Well, I guess I can do better if I try again,’ and then he made Eve. God liked Eve so much better than he did Adam that there has been more women than men ever since. Boys are a trouble. They are wearing on everything but soap. If I had my way half the little boys in the world would be little girls, and the rest would be dolls. My papa is so nice I guess he must -Lave been a girl when he was a boy.” IN MEMORIAM.

Stealing anything over $25 is grand larceny, and you say it was a $45 suit?” “And vat vas stealing anyding under twenty-fife dollars?” asked the cloth ier. “ “Oh, that is simple larceny.” - “Oh. veil, dis vas simble larceny den.” < “A $45 suit simple larceny!

Why, in the summer time that girl clerks in an ice-cream and confectionery shop, and in the winter she is cashier in an oyster saloon.” “Willie,” sorrowfully observed the little girl to her juvenile adorer, “Papa says I’m too young to have a sweetheart and I must quit running out and play ing with you. He says you musn’t come here so much.” “I’m not afraid of your papa, Katie,” said Willie, stoutly. “He needn’t think he can scare me because he’s a big deal er in lumber.” “Yes, but he deals in shingles, Wil lie; big, flat shingles.” “That’s so,” said Willie, turning away sadly.

I told Martha this morning when the plaster fell from the ceiling that it was a sign of bad luck.” “I understand that Col. Blear is very wealthy.’” “Well, he’s worth about $100,000.” “How did he make it?” “He made it out of coal oil.” “Indeed!” “Yes, his wife lit the fire with kero sene, and he got all her money.” Freaks of Temper.

The mountains are rugged and wild and sweet With balsam and fir aud odorous pine; The giant trees,beneath their sheltering green With seeming safety lure the herding deer; The lakes so sweet and cool sleep far below The shade of precipice and mountain side. Beneath the trees, alert, the hunters wait With deadly weapons and unerring aim. The swift, keen-scented hounds upon the track Bay loud aud deep. Onward the hunted stag, Majestic in his flight, sweeps grandly by, With branching autlers lifted high in air. Its sad eyes glance afar to find escape From its pursuing foes. Its burning lips Part wide from over the parching, aching tongue, That panteth for the water-brook so cool. With action so intense each muscle quivers; Its trembling haunches hang with lather white; Its sharp-cleft hoofs scarce touch the pebbly | earth So close the chase. Aud now with loud drawn breath. One agonizing glance, one effort more su preme, He gains the cliff. Down from the pricipice He plunges; down, down the maddeuing steep Into the cool, calm lake with restful shade, Where lotus blooms lie on its cristal bed. Poor hunted stag! At last escape is sure. Cool here thy glossy hide, and rest thine eyes, Lave every tired limb and drink thy fill. All! Christian, seest thou the vision clear ? The world is the forest, aud thou the deer. The hunters are Sin, Misfortune, Malice. Awaiting the time to wound and to slay. The baying pack so close upon thy heels, Are the hounds of affliction, pain and care; Estrangement, perhaps, and poverty, too. Driving ttiee hard to the brink of despair. Fly! fly to the 1a£e of solace divine; Plunge in its bosom of rest and of peace; Run to the waters of God’s consolation And swim in the depths of Almighty love Daisy Villa, Sept. 1SS3. Lila Dews. In Memory of Johnnie Simms. There is no flock, however watched aud tended, But one dead lamb is there; There is no fireside, however defended, But has one vacant chair ” On the morning of August 24th, 1888, the home of Mr. and Mrs. Ben. Simms was made sadly desolate by ‘the death of their beloved son, Johnnie, aged 19 years. How sweet a life was his, how sweet a death! Living to wing with mirth the weary hours, Or with romantic tales the heart to cheer; Dying, to leavo a memory, like the breath Of summer, full of suusliine and of flowers— A grief and .gladness in the atmosphere.” Previous to his death he was a pupil of Prof. Walker, where, by his thor ough and conscientious devotion to duty, he won the confidence of both teacher and schoolmates. His bright and genial disposition made for him a host of friends, who will ever remem ber him as a being in whom joy and happiness were inseparable. During the last revival at the Baptist church he committed his soul to the keeping of the Good Shepherd, bv whose hand he was led “into the paths of righteous ness,” until, at last, the angels called him to the broken choir of heaven. It seems that the brightest and most promising are always the earliest to be removed from our midst, blighting all our fond expectations and throwing back the streams of affection in Alpine torrents upon our hearts. The high and glorious ambitions that dwelt in the temple of sweet Johnnie’s heart were nipped in the bud, but they blos som more beautifully in the celestial clime above. When he became aware that death was approaching, “Dear Johnnie’s hope no fears could blight, No pain his peace destroy; He looked beyond to realms of light, Of pure ai.d boundless joy— Aud said, ‘The will of God my will shall lie, So I bow to tiie His uis'ine decree.’” The idolizing parents, devoted broth ers and sisters, can but sorely miss him; for never was a son or brother more af fectionate or more worthy of the love lavished upon him than Johnnie. But it will be a sweet consolation to know that he was removed— “Ere stain on bis purity fell, And witli his soul ‘It is well.’ ” “We must all learn to give in joy and pain The flowers we most do love, And remember we’ll find them all again In the beautiful home above; They will all bloom in the fields of light, Transplanted by His care, And always robed in garment s whit", The saored crown they’ll wear. “Dear Johnnie is sleeping! the violets which grow On the graves of the lovely and puie, Smile sweetly to think the angels are waiting To bear him above to the realms of the blest. Where all weeping and sorrow is o’er.” Then why need we weep? He only apeareth to die, when in truth he is only quietly sleeping— “Awaiting the call from above.” Xewnan. Sept. 25, 1888. M. A.

My little son, 14 years of age, suffered from an acute attack of rheumatism,caused by undue exposure and chilling of the blood. I heard your remedy highly recommended, aud pur chased a bottle from Moncrief & Bro., Pres cott, Ark. In about one month, after using this bottle he became so much better that I got the second bottle, which is now being us ed. and my son is nearly well, and I think by removing him to a cooler summer climate (which I will do) and continuing its use, a periect cure will be effected.

THE WORLD CHALLENGED. - To produce anything like an approach to our now justly celebrated Blood Remedy, B. B. B., we make bold to claim the following special points of value and advantage over any other remedy on the market: 1. That it consists' of the most valuable remedies known to the medical profession. 2. That the combination of the remedies lias never been equaled in any medicine that has ever been known. 3. Its beneficial results can be felt sooner than by the use of any other remedv. 4. It takes iess quantity and less mouey to produce a cure than any other remedy. We are willing for B. B. H. to stand on its own merits, and as our words are unnecessary in proving its efficiency as a blood remedy, we simply inVite a careful perusal of the following voluntary certificates from the thousands who have tried it. They are eloquent tributes, and speak for themselves. To the skeptical, we would further say : Inquire of your neighbor who lias tried our great remedy. Here are the certificates : A REMARKABLE LETTER. Down Two Years With Rheumatism | and Now Entirely Well. I have been troubled with rheumatism for two years; had gotten so I could scarcely walk, and was in pain nearly all the time. At- night could not sleep for tiie exerdeiating pain. The bone in one of my legs was very much enlarged, and 1 feared that amputation would be necessary. After trying many dii- ferent patent medicines claiming to cure rheumatism and other complaints, I was al most discouraged until about two weeks ago, when 1 had to give up business, Mr. W. J. Willingham, of your city, hearing of my com plaint, advised the use of your medicine, and assured me of his confidence in it as a cure for rheumatism. I at once purchased a bot tle, hoping it might relieve me, but not having much faith in it, or in anything else; but, thank God, I mil very inuen relieved, and I firmly believe T will get entirely well. The swelling 1ms gone down and I am in no pain whatever. Am at work again, and 'nave been for several days. Can run up and down the stairway in factory as nimbly as ever. I thank you for this earthly salvation to me. I write without your solicitation, or any knowledge of you, except through your med icine. I write because I feel grateful for what ims been done for me. I am yours, very truly, W. A. Moore, Foreman for Willingham Lumber Co., Chattanooga, Tenn. If any one should doubt as to my being cured, oV as to my statements, I refer them to the firm I am with and have been with for many years: Mr Phillip Young, Of Chatta nooga; Mr. Hamilton, foreman of carpentry, with W.

She, a girl of 16 years, was taken with a very sore leg below the knee. I used aoout 30 bottles of other medicine to no purpose. The doctors said the only remedy left was amputation. That we all were op posed to. I was in Knoxville tiie 8th of Jan uary, 1887, and while buying a bill of drugs called for a good blood purifier, and Messrs. Sanford, Chamberland & Co. recommended the B. B. B. I purchased one-half dozen bot tles, and, to m.v utter surprise, after using three or four bottles, my girl’s leg was entire ly well. I also had a very ugly running sore on the calf of my leg and one bottle cured it, after trying all other remedies. I wish you much success, and I do hope that all suffering humanity may hear and belteve in the only true blood purifier. I have tried three or four blood purifiers, but the B.BSB. is the only one that ever did me or mine any good. You can use my name if you wish.

I have been a practical druggist in Tyler for a number of years, and in that time have’had occasion to examine, try,and notice the effect of nearly all the highly recommended prepar ations m- patent medic nes on the market, as I have suffered untbid misery myself, the'past number of years, fiom a severe form of in flammatory rheumatism, and could fiud nothing to cure or rtlieve me.

I recommended an internal application- known as Botanic Blood Balm—which I have been using and selling about two years; she usee* three bottles and nearly all pimples have disappeared, her skin is soft and smooth and her general health much improved. She expresses herself as well satisfied and can recommend it to all who are thus affected. Mrs. S. M. Wilson. Would not Take $1,000 for it—Re lieved of Fifteen Years Suf fering from Dyspepsia.

I went to a noted doctor aud he treated me for it, but could not cure me, he said. I was over fifty years of age and I gave up to die. I had a distressing cough ; my eyes were swollen and I am confident I could not have lived without a change. I sent and got a bottle of your medicine, used it, and felt better. Then I got four more, and thank God! it cured me. Use this any way you may wish for the good of sufferers. Mrs. Matilda Nichols, 22 Florida Street. TRIED FIVE DOCTORS.

Ga.—Gentlemen : I had suffered from that terrible disease, dyspepsia for over fifteen years, and during that time tried everything I could hear of, and spent over three hundred dollars in doctor’s bills, without receiving the slightest benefit Indeed. I continued to grow worse. Finally’ after I despaired of obtaining relief, a friend recommended B. B. B., (Botanic Blood Balm and I began using it; not. biowever, expecting to be benefited. After using half a bottle I was satisfied I was being benefited, and when the sixth bottle was used I felt like a new man. I would not take $1,000 for the good it has done me; in fact, the relief that 1 derived from it is priceless. I firmly believe I would have died had I not taken it. Respectfully, THOMAS PAULK.
