THE FINGER-NAILS. How They Should Be Cared for— Hints Worth Heeding. [Youth’s Companion.] While serving as a protection to the ex tremities of the fingers, well-preserved naila add much to the beauty of the hand. On the contrary, nothing renders the hand more unsightly than thick, irregular and Boiled nails. But another consideration, making a proper care of them of the highest importance, is the fact that every person who labors with the hands is liable to gather, under the free margin of his nails, foreign matter, Which may be very'poisonous to the tissues of the body. Many cases have oc curred in which the slightest abrasions of the cuticle by means of the finger nail have resulted in malignant, even fatal, inflamma tions. If, from any cause, the nail becomes thick and inelastic, it soon becomes rough, and as sumes the appearance of an excrescence rather than, an ornament. In this condition it is much more difficult to keep clean. To avoid this, the hand should not be subjected to the action of strong alkalies, such as quicklime, etc.; neither should foreign sub stances be removed from the surface by scraping, as, from the peculiar manner of ■its growth, this will cause the nail to thicken. To cleanse the surface and the margin ad joining the skin, a sift nail-brush, mild '•oap, and soft water should be applied once each day, while the foreign matter accumu -1 ited under the free margin should be re moved as often as the hands are washed, by passing the rounded point of a small knife blade once or twice beneath it. This being done while the nail is wet, one movement will generally be sufficient to re move the substance completely; but care should be taken to detach no more of the nail, as this may, if repeated, cause the de tached margin to recede until it is necessary to allow a wide growth to protect the end of the finger. The paring should also be done while the nail is soft from washing, with an instru ment which will make a perfectly smooth edge, and sufficiently often to limit the breadth of the free margin to about one twelfth of an inch. This breadth is best, es pecially in the case of persons who have to do rough work with the hands, for two sea sons; it prevents the breaking of the nail and also the accumulation of much foreign sub stance. The corners should not be very closely cut, or the troublesome condition known as ingrown nail may be produced. To prevent the breaking of the cutile near the root of the nail (commonly called “hang nail,”) the skin should be pressed—not scraped—loose from the nail at least onoe a week. -Marine Hydropathics.*’ [Foreign Letter.] A Scotch merchant who describes himself as “having been run down in health aud spirits,” was advised by a friend to try “ma rine hydropathips” for his recovery. “Ma rine hydropathics” meant a trip across the Atlantic in a steamer, arid the adherence to a regime specially applicable for “men run downin health and spirits.” The Scotch in valid took the advice tendered to him, and thus itocounts his experiences: “Making the acquaintance of the doctor on board, we explained the object of our trip, and asked his advice. ‘Wed,’ he said, after asking a few questions, ‘my advice is simply and easily followed. Get up at 8:30, eat an apple or orange while dressing; go down to the bath-room, take a cold bath with the chill off, then to bed for half an hour and enjoy the after glow, dress and take a walk, wet or dry, for ten minutes, and you will enjoy breakfast. Occupy your time between meals by walking, reading, card-playing, and resting. About 4 o’clock take a hot salt bath and thorough rubbing, and rest for an hour before dinner. If you feel thirsty, eat a few grapes, or drink a glass of Apollinaris—no spirits and no beei tor the present. As for meals, prefer th. plain dishes; avoid roots, such as potatoes but eat fruits in plenty. Follow this course, ;aid the doctor, ‘and look for good results.’. “The first day we followed the diet and regimen, and got on finely; the second day, alas I what a falling off. After breakfast we felt queer, and, getting on deck, tried to walk it off. The ship rolled, we made a dive tor the railing and freely ‘cast our bread on the Waters.’ Next day we had a good appe tite and a lightness of spirits we had not en joyed for weeks. We had got rii of our bile, and, although we had two rough days and nights, the sickness did not return. We persevered in the prescribed course, going and returning, took the baths regularly, and the result was such a toning up of health as we never before experienced. This is hydro pathy with variations, and in some respects a great advance on establishments on shore.” Extracts from a Private Letter. *' Regarding Dr. David Kennedy’s“ Favorite Remedy,” the writer, Prof. A. B. Chandler, Principal of the Academy, Brcokhaven, Miss., says: “I suffered from torpidity of the Diver and Bowels and Paralysis. I used the ‘Favorite Remedy’ for two months, and am now able to use my side, which for a long time had been like a piece of dead flesh. My general health was never better than at present.” F" When you retire to bed, think over what yo i have been doing through the day. THE DEAD LINE Is well remembered by the veterans of our “late war,” but Speer’s Wine has achieved a wide reputation from its efficacy in the sick room, being one of the most pleasing and comforting beverages that can _be given an invalid, and at the same time is a powerful strength restorer.

Miss Minnie Wallme resides with Mrs. George Fickland, 41 McAfee street, Atlanta, Ga., and from her own lips a Constitution re porter learned the following story: Several months ago she became almost to tally blind and deaf, and could not tasle any thing except snlt. Her bones became the seat of intense pain, her joints were swollen and painful, and eventually her whole body and limbs became covered with splotches and small sores. Her appetite failed, and she gradually lost flesh and strength, and had but little use of herself, as her limbs and muscles were paralyzed. She, as well as her friends and those with whom she lived, despaired of her recovey. Her sufferings, combined with loss of hearing and taste, and blindness, were truly heartrending. All treatment from physicians and the use of medicines seemed powerless. Her dis ease was blood poison and rheumatism. As she now seemed well and hearty the re porter asked what wrought such a wonderful change. . , . ‘•I used a medicine recommended by a friend,” she replied, “and before one b ttle had been taken I began to see and hear. Ihe second bottle relieved all rheumatic pains and improved my appetite. When I had com pleted the use of six bottles my eyesight and nearing were fully restored, sense of taste re turned, and splotches disappeared, sores all healed, and my strength and flesh restored. I now feel as well as I ever did, and my friends, as well as myself, are astonished. ’ “What was the Medicine?” asked the re porter. . „ ~ “Botanic Blood Balm —B. B. B. was the great remedy that acted so powerfully on my disease and cured me. I never experienced any unpleasant symptoms from its use. and its action is so quick that it surprises all. The reporter then sought a physician who knew the case, whereupon he handed us the following lines: ' ~ “1 examined the above case of blood poison and rheumatism, before and after being cured, and certify to the main facts above stated, and must acknowledge that the B.
