WHAT A WOMAN CAN DO.
She can talk faster than a man can hear.
She can say "No" and stick to it for all
time.
She can also say "No" in such a low, soft
voice that it means "Yes."
She can eat her breakfast in bed and enjoy
it. This is something that no man
can do.
She can sharpen a lead-pencil if you ^ive
her plenty of time and plenty of pencils.
She can see in a great big selfish hulk !
qualities which he does not and never did j
possess. '
She can dance all night in a pair of shoes
two sizes too small for her and enjoy every
minute of the time. '
She can pass a display window of a dry ;
goods store without stopping?if she is running
to catch a train.
Sne can appreciate a kiss from her husw/1

ceremony has taken place.
She can walk half the night with a colicky
baby in her arms without once expressing
the desire to murder the infant.
She can suffer abuse and neglect for years,
which one touch of kindness or consideration
will drive from her recollection.
She can go to church and afterwards tell *
you what every woman in the congrega- 1
tion had on, and in some rare instances can !
give a faint idea what the text was. 1
She can look her husband square in the 1
eyes when he tells her some cock-aud-bull ]
story about being "detained at the office," '
without betraying in the least that she ]
knows him to be a colossal liar.
She can rumple up $17,000 worth of dress j
goods and buy a spool of thread, with an j
order to have it delivered four miles away,
in a style that will transfix the proprietor '
of the establishment with admiration.
She can go into convulsions at the sight .
of a mouse, and five minutes later she can
listen to her husband's story of his financial
ruin with a loving smile on her face and '
with a courage in her heart that comes not J
within the knowledge of men.
She can?but what's the use! A woman ,
can do anything and everything, and do it ;
well. She can do more in a minute than a j
man can do in an hour, and do it better. \
She can make the alleged lords of creation '
bow to her own sweet will, and they will j
never know it. Yes, a woman can do {
everything, with but one exception: she
cannot climb a tree.
A Match Found for a Boston Quiz, j

through the White mountains the past summer
came across a lonely hut among the
hills from which the prospect was particularly
tine and extended. The proprietor of
the establishment was hoeing in a small
garden, and the travelers began to quiz
him. Said one:
"You have an excellent view from your
house."
"Purty fair," replied the farmer.
"I suppose," continued the first speaker,
winking to his companion, "on a fair day
you can see almost to Europe ?"
"Kin see further 'n that," returned the
man.
"How so?" was asked in surprise.
"We don't think nothin' of seein' as fur
as the mune."?Boston Courier.
It Looked That Way.?At one of the
Northern depots lately an old lady, whom
an inward train had just deposited, timidly
approached a brakeman and asked if he
knew whereabouts on the line her nephew
was employed. "Abner ?" said the railroad
man. "Oh, he's been changed about considerably
lately. He fired the John Edward
till she ditched the graves and he got stove
in. When he came out they gave him the
Owl for a while; then he broke the two-eight
passenger till she jumped a know-nothing,
and he got pinched somewhere, and now I
believe he's spare round the yard. You see
he's had hard luck." The old lady stood
speechless for a moment as if trying to digest
the idioms of the railroad, and then
said softly, as if at a hazard, that she
"thought he had."?Boston Globe.
A Correction.?Over the great Los Angeles
earthquake the communities down
South are excessively proud. They claim
that a man at San Fernando was actually
thrown out of his bed by the shock. That
this is untrue can be seen by perusing the '
following dispatch: s
"Editor: Please correct the statement in
daily papers. My husband was not thrown t
out of Ded by any earthquake. I threw him
out of bed myself, aud I'll do it every time
he comes home intoxicated, and lies down
at the foot of the bed and puts his muddy ,
l>oots in my face. (Signed) Jane Wilkins."
This takes all the starch out of their fourth- (,
class earth-quake in Los Angeles.?San j
Francisco Nem-Letter.
"I engaged," said a burly lawyer, "a *
chaise at Gal way, to conduct me a few miles r
into the country, and had proceeded some
distance when it came to a sudden stand- t
still at the beginning of a rather steep incline,
and the coachman, leaping to the ^
ground, came to the door and opened it. *
"What are you at, man ? Thi3 is not where
I ordered you to stop. Has the animal
jibbed?" "Whisht, yer honor, whisht," ?
said Paddy, in an undertone. 'I'm only *
desaving the sly beast. I'll just bang the t
door; and thecrafty ould creature will think
he's entirely got rid of yer honor's splindid 0
form, and he'll be at the top of the hill in no 4
time." ,
Not Easily Terrified.?"Jupiter is .
thar yet," reminds us of Josh King, a
celebrity of Polk, before it was a county.
When the stars fell in '33 his family thought t
the end of the world had come, and tried to i
rouse him and convince him that the time j
was up. He turned over and told his wife t
to "see if Jupiter wasstan'in'." .She report- (
ed Jupiter as "still thar," when he snoozed ]
off, saying: "All right; keep your eye 011 j
JuDiter. and if vou see him drop wake me, s
for'then it will "be time to get away from 1
here."?Hutherfordton (AT. C.) Banner. i

claimed a colored gentlemen, "does yer ]

Kissixg His Wife.?It is reported that
when the judges at Naragansett park an-!
nounced Jay-Eye-See's time to have been
2:103 in the test heat last Saturday, Mr. J. I.
Case, the ownerofthe horse, was so gratified
that he actually kissed his wife. It is curious
what some men will do in moments of
joy and excitement.

Tarring a Rat.?Rats are wonderfully
clean animals, and they dislike tar more,
perhaps, than anything else, for if any gets
on their jackets they tind it most difficult to
remove. Now, I had heard it mentioned
that pouring tar down at the entrance of
their holes was a good remedy, also placing
broken pieces of glass by the holes was another
remedy. But these remedies are not
effective. The rats may leave their old
holes and make new ones in other parts of
the house; they don't, however, leave the
premises for good. I thought I would try
another experiment?one I had not heard of
before. One evening I set a large wire-cage
rat-trap, attaching on the inside a most seductive
piece of strongly smelling cheese,
and next morning I found to my satisfaction,
that I had succeeded in trapping a very
large rat, one of the largest I had ever seen,
which, after I had besmeared him with tar,
I let loose into his favorite run. The next
night I tried again, and succeeded in trapping
another equally big fellow, and served
him in the same manner. I could not follow
these tar-besmeared rats into their numerous
runs, to see what would happen, but
it is reasonable to assume they either summoned
together all the members of their
community, and by their crestfallen appearance,
gave their comrades silent indications
af the misfortunes which had so suddenly
hofaiion t.hpm nr that thev had frichtened
their brethren away, for they one and all
forsook the place and fled. The experiment
was eminently successful. From that day,
in 1875, till now, 18S3, my house, ancient
though it is, has been entirely free from rats,
md I believe that there is no remedy equal
to this one, if you can catch your rat alive.
They never come back to the house again.

Weather Troubles.?We must remember
that this is a lar^e country, and that
)ur troubles from bad weather are really
ilmost always comparatively local. With
>ur railroads uniting all parts of the county,
bringing the farmers of the extremes as
lear each other as residents of a county used
:o be, there is far less cause for melancholy
foreboding than in the days of our grandfothers,
when a single snow storm or cold
snap might cut off all traffic and communiation
between comparatively near neighbors
for whole weeks at a time. Now, if
he hay crop is short, or our corn is frozen,
,ve can find plenty of either waiting for a
narket almost at our very doors. To the
former who lives from "hand to mouth,"
who uses up each year what each year proluees,
a short crop means a degree of want,
bossibly hunger and cold, but this is not
he character of the farmers generally. We
believe that there is no considerable class
bf working people in the . community who
rom year to year suffer less from actual
,vant than- the farmers. Their very occupaion
teaches them to look ahead and provide
for the future. Tradesmen and -manufacturers
have their poor years, and farmers
nust not expect to be exempt. As one exreme
is expected to follow another we may
lope for an exceptionally productive season
lext year.?New England Farmer.
Black Walnut.?Black Walnut can be
frown from the nut, producing a butt foureen
inches in diameter in as many years
rom the seed, as fa* north as Massachusetts.
!Co tree valuable for the timber in cabinet
ises, unless the black birch be so considered,
an attain to that useful growth in that peiod
of time in four northern climate. Ma*
t-iv x\ I
lies require twenty years ueiore nicy ueome
good timber trees; beeches and birch!S,
fifteen years to attain to a diameter large
inough to yield nine inch boards ; hickory
hould have a growth of thirty years ; and
sherry at least as much.
The cultivation of the black walnut might
>e made a source of profit, if only as an auxliary
to the ordinary farm products. It retires
no particular care, makes an elegant
ree even in its youth, and later affords an
igreeable shade. The Sewing Machine Joitruil
says:
"One hundred acres of land, seeded to
valnut trees, if they even reach maturity
n fifteen years, would be more remuneraive
than many of the crops produced by fifeen
of incessant toil. Besides, these trees
night be planted and would thrive on spots
vhich are really valueless for agricultural
lurposes, and while in the course of growth
vould serve as valuable aids to agriculture
is wind breaks and in other respects."
The Eyesight.?Dr. Lundaylays down
he following rules for the better care of the
(yes:
1. Avoid reading and.study by poor light.
2. Light should come from the side and
lot from the back or from tTie front.
i). Do not read or study while suffering
^reat bodily fatigue or during recovery from
llness.
4. Do not read while lying down.
f>. Do not use the eyes too long at a time
or near work, but give them occasional peiods
of rest.
G. Reading and study should be done sysematically.
7. During study avoid the stooping posiion,
or whatever tends to produce congesion
of the head and face.
8. Select well printed books.
1). Correct errors of refraction with proper
passes.
10. Avoid had hygienic conditions and
he use of alcohol and tobacco.
11. Take sufficient exercise in the open
lir.
12. Let thy physical keep pace with the
nental culture, for asthenopia is most usualy
observed in those who are lacking in
physical development.
petroleum.?This peculiar product?
ailed a "mineral" in the official documents,
because it is supposed to have been
produced, geologically, from coal?now constitutes
one of the most important of the
country's exports. It may not eventually
prove to be a mineral in any other sense
;han is implied by its being found in the
subterranean rocks, for it is not yet certain
:hat it is not produced from measureless
millions of a minute marine shell fish that
nice lived in theancient seas, Whatever it
is, a product of coal, or of what was once a
form of animal life, it is essentially made
jf carbon and hydrogen, and Is proving to
ae an invaluable addition to the world's
possessions. It seems strange that tills subdance,
so early known, should have remained,
during all these centuries, unused?
except by some of the followers of Zoroaster,
who have for a long time utilized napttia
springs at Baku, on the shores of the Caspian
sea, to keep alive their perpetual fire.
Farming Pays.?If apiece of land cost
>100 and produces crops that yield a net return,
after paying all cost of labor and fertilization,
of 810, it is paying ten per cent
on the investment, just as much as if 8100
had been loaned at tfie rate or ten per cent,
interest. Now there is no man who would
think of living on the interest of $100 loaned
:it even this high rate, but instances are not
rare of men making a good living for themselves
and their families from careful cultivation
of ten acres of lands. We mention
this fact to prove the two frequent expression
that "farming does not pay" is not in
accordance with fact. Ifa man invest$l,000
in 10') acres of land and makes only ten of
them, or $100 worth available, he cannot expect
to derive a profit from the other ninety
acres, any more than he could expect any
interest 4pon $1,000 when he had only $100
of it invested. Land well cultivated pays
a better interest on the money invested than
any other venture.? Vermont Watchman.
How to Tell Diphtheria.?A doctor
says: "I was called out of bed past midnight
to' go four miles in the country and attend,
what the messenger stated, was a bad case
of diphtheria." "And you went?" "Had
to. When I arrived I found a ten-year-old
* T l/.Alrn/l
girl crying Willi H sure uiiuut. x wuivcu imu
it, asked a few questions, and found.that
she had done a big washing that day. Had
a little cold?nothing else." "How can you
tell the difference ?" "I'll give you a rule
by which you can always determine," was
the response. "If the throat is red and
smaller, no fear of diphtheria; but if it looks
as though some one had thrown a handful
of ashes into the throat?a dull gray colorlook
out. It's diphtheria's danger signal.
?
Bgp- Mush made in this way is excellent:
Boil a quart of water. Stir a pint of cold
milk with one pint of corn meal and one tablespoonful
of salt. Pour this into the boiling
water gradually and let it all boil for
half an hour. Watch it carefully to prevent
burning.

FOLLOWING THE LORD.
j In the 63rrl Psalm, at the 8th verse, David t
J says, "My soul followeth hard after thee." r
From the preceding context, it is manifest (
that it is God, reconciled in Christ Jesus, <
that the pious Psalmist was following. The j
verb translated "followeth," means "tostick t
or cling to." Hengstemberg says, "('leaves'e
to him, as a bur to a coat." Adam Clarke j;
renders it thus: "My soul cleaves or is glued ,
after thee." Waterlaml translates the pas- v
sage thus: "My soul hath kept close?hath ^
adhered to thee." The idea is well express- *
ed by our common English version. Every 1
one knows what is meant by following a j
thing, or person; and every one knows what j
is meant by following hard after a person or '
thing. Worldly minded men follow hard ?
after wealth ; ambitious men follow hard r
after fame ; but the Psalmist says his soul '
| follows hard after God.
When the Psalmist gave utterance to these
words, he expressed the soul-yearnings of a
vast multitude of the human family. In
the days of David there were many others
whose souls followed hard after God, and v
ever since that, there have, in every period
of the world's history, been many whose -j
experience was similar to David's; and today
there are many who are literally follow- *
ing hard after God. Such will be the case
so long as the world lasts. Two things, sug- C
gested by these words, demand our atten- 11
tion. 1st. Why follow hard after God? and, i(
2nd, How can any follow hard after God ? si
The overwhelming majority of our race ^
follow hard after things for no good reason, is
The man whose soul is set on the things of b
this world, wears out his body and vexes J-(
his soul for that which observation and ex- I
perience teaches will profit him but little, !l
and but for a short time. Anxious thoughts jf
fill his mind, and lie struggles to obtain that I
which is unable to satisfy his soul's desires. ?
Still he struggles on.
The man whose soul is following hard r
after fame, can give no good reason for b
bending all the energies of his being in the \
pursuit of that which will be but an empty ?
bubble when obtained. The man whose '
soul is following hard after God reconciled ft
in Christ Jesus, has a good reason for pursuing
such a course. Even in this vale of is
tears, he finds in God all that his immortal si
soul craves. Communion with God is the .
consummation of all joy and bliss. This 11
the man whose soul follows hard after God "
experiences. He finds a reason in the characterof
God. The man whosuffers his soul si
to cleave or stick to wealth or fame, follows ?
after something infinitely beneath himself.
He is crouching to his inferior. Animmortal
soul is seeking delight in something jj
which may administer to his carnal pleas- a
ure, but cannot afford soul delight. ' Not so
with the man whose soul follows hard after si
God reconciled in Christ Jesus. In the vast f?

forever. Ilere is a fountain pure and sparkling,
deep and inexhaustible. God?the
living God?is the portion of his soul forever.
Whoever follows hard after God is wise.
How are we to follow after God ? By the p
restless multitude, the question, "How can I sii
become rich, receive worldly ease and world- tl
ly fame?" is often asked. Here and there, 11
are a few individuals, who are anxiously inquiring,
"How can I follow hard after God."
To such it may be replied, in a general way,
you follow hard after God by obeying all his oi
commandments. The people of God are M
often, in the Scriptures, called soldiers. !)
They have a leader?a captain?Jesus Chris). ^
That soldier follows hard after his captain j*
or leader, who strictly obeys all his com- t(
inands in the way and at the time required, n
Such a soldier may be said to stick to his ti
commander. So the individual who obeys
the voice of the Lord, doing all that he is n
commanded, at the time, and in the way he
is required, follows hard after God. o.
But to be more particular, it is remarked n
that in order to follow hard after God, a cor- 01
rect Scriptural knowledge of the character ai
of God and our own condition is necessary. P
The mass of Adam's race are following hard tf
after the gods of the heathen. They know s]
nothing of the God that made them, and n
have no correct knowledge of their own n
spiritual condition. They have a zeal, but n
it is not according to knowledge. They are
followingthey know not what. David knew 11
the character of God. He was not following Han
imaginary Deity. The beingthat lie had t
constantly before his eyes was the architect v
of the universe and the God of salvation.
To follow hard after God, we must follow tj
him constantly and continuously.
111 another Psalm (16:8) David says: "I o:
have set the Lord always before me; because n]
lie is at my right hand, I shall not be S(
moved." So it is with every one that fol- b<
lows hard after God. lie is always before
their face. Their heart is fixed upon him.
Again, they who follow hard after God, te
follow him humbly. They are not pulled ai
up. The greatness of God and their own t(:
insignificance and worthlessness keeps them tl
humble. They follow him willingly and fc
joyfully. Thecommands of God are to them k
sweeter than honey, Their delight is in
the law of God. j1
For all who follow hard after God a great
reward is provided. The war will soon end.
The shout of victory will soon be heard.

will lay aside the implements of warfare, ?
and be clothed in robes of eternal peace and
joy and bliss. Then he will sit down and _
sing forever hallelujahs to him who led him
safely through great tribulation, and crown- c
ed him at last with a crown of righteousness, l

CHANGl'S. s<
The last century has been prolific of ^
changes. The face of the American contipent
hasbeen so changed that its original fea- i3
tures are almost wholly effaced, Inagricul <>
ture, the country has made great changes.
Socially, the inhabitants of the country have a
undergone great changes. The inhabitants ^
of North America certainly enjoy more
comforts and have to struggle with fewer b
disadvantages to-day than they had one b
hundred years ago. The greatest change r
which has taken place in America during
the last century is in the church. Christianity
has spread in a most wonderful manner.
The growth of the church, in some I
respects, has been like a tree planted by t(
rivers of water. ?
There are many of the changes which 1<
have taken place in the external aspect of the v
church which are exceedingly gratifying. (1
There are, on the other other hand, some
changes which do not indicate a state of
' XI /II U
great prosperity in uie ouua-u. oumu tl
phases of piety are fast disappearing from u
our country. Parents are certainly not as a
particular now as they once were to in- a
struct their children in the primary principles
of the Christian religion. The Bible has
been thrust out of our common schools
and largely out of tho family.
If these things are true, and we think they >
are, although we would hope they are otherwise,
they omen no good. Any individual
who will cast his eyes abroad over our j
country, will discover tluit in every section i j,
there is a united effort to secularize the r
Church. This evil begins in the pulpit and ! t:
descends to the pew. Ministers of the gos- | c
pel preach that gospel so as to make them-11
selves popular. The great duty of instruct- I(
ing the people in the plan of salvation, and _
the way of recovery through Jesus Christ |
i in nil nnr nnlnits. lanrelv neerlected. The
I result is that many congregations in our ! i,
I country know comparatively little about' <1
; Jesus. 11;
Another unfavorable sign is the almost
| universal desecration of the Lord's day. ! ~
I The Sabbath, as a day kept holy unto the
i Lord, has almost ceased to nave an existence i
; inour country. We generally entirely cease
j on that day to follow our secular employ- j
1 ments; but we devote the day not to the
! Lord, but largely to our own carnal pleasure.
| Another bad change is the contempt with i
; which professed Christians treat church dis!
cipline. The binding and loosing power
I which Jesus Christ gave to the officers of his _
| church is treated very frequently with scorn.
! Because the Church cannot put a man in jail, .
j its power is despised and its laws trampled \
' under foot. I

abuse, but has referred the subject back to the

Resolved, That this Council, knowing the giving
of a prescription to persons not sick and not
patients of physicians giving the same, to be a

right to ask for them; and moreover, to notify
physicians that hereafter the prescription files of
the Drug Stores will be frequently inspected bv
