Old lady Jones borrowed Mrs. Brown's recipe for making watermelon pickle the other day, and, being hard of hearing, and . as she couldn't see to read well, she got her grandson, Jakie to read it for her. Jakie took the paper like a dutiful child, and holding it upside down, commenced: I "Take a green watermelon?" "Why, Jakie, ain't you mistaken. I thought the melon must be ripe." "Oh, what's the matter wid you? Did yer ever see a watermelon that wasn't green? 'Cut the watermelon into four halves?'" "But there ain't only two halves to anything. I don't believe you are reading that right, Jakie." "Well, you don't half to; but anyhow that's wat the reseet says. 'Then soak it in a pint cup?'" ' "Oh, dear me! how in the world can you put a watermelon in a pint cup ?" "Well, I ain't here to tell you the whereases and howfores. I'm just readin' the facts, and you can put in the filosofee to suit your taste. 'After soaking the melon, put It in a skillet and fry it for four days." n?An/lA? 1/ "WTiw *Di*A(tfn onnf mo suph o JL nuuuui Ji XUIO* Ull/TTU otuV U1V owvti reseet as that," said the old lady, but Jakie kept on: "Then put the watermelon in a quart bowl and pour over it a gallon of vinegar, taking care not to spill the vinegar?" "I'd just like to know how you can pour a gallon into a quart bowl without spilling any of it;" but Jakie continued: "Then sift a peck of red pepper through a milk strainer over the melon, and to one cup of butter add the whites and yolks and the shells of three eggs, and throw in the old hen that laid them, and four sticks of cinnamon drops, and two table-spoonsful of -quinine and run it through a coffee mill, and, let it stand until it ferments, and then put it in a tin can and tie the can to a dog's tail ?this will stir it up to the right consistcncy?and then you can turn it off into crocks and have it ready for use. Serve it up cold and spread on mince pie, and it makes a capital dessert:" and Jakie slid out the door and left the old lady looking like a wrinkle on a monument. "By golly," said Jakie, "bet your sweet life she won't ask me to read any more reseets!" An Almanac as a Witness.?John Philpot Curran defended a poor devil who was charged with robbing a nobleman. On trial the victim positively identified the thief, saying, though the robbery occurred .at night, the moon was bright enough to allow him to see the face of his assailant. The driver and footman both gave similar testimony. Curran addressed the court and the jury. He pleaded that his client was not guilty?had been at home, fifteen miles away from the scene of the robbery at the time of its occurrence. He could not prove an alibi, for a wife could not testify for her husband, and his child was not old enough to know the import of an oath; but he could introduce the only witness the prosecution had depended on for identification?the moon. "The driver and footman testified as they did because their master did so." There Curran called for the almanacs. Several of the red bound pamphlets were Drougntin. xne juage iook one. turning to the date of the robbery, which occurred at 11 o'clock, it was discovered that no moon aroee that night, and the prisoner was acquitted. He talked to Curran afterward, and the attorney said: "You gave me ?20 ($100 in our money) to defend you. Well, I only got about ?2 of that. It cost me ?18 to 1 get those almanacs printed !"?

Jam and Jircsitlc. FOR TELLING HORSES' AGES. The full-grown horse possesses twenty-four hack teeth, that is, six in each side of each jaw; these are called molars or grinders. He has twelve front teeth, that is, six in each jaw. Mares have no tushes. The foal has either at his birth or shortly afterward eight milk teeth, that is four in each jaw; at about 12 months two more milk teeth come in each jaw. These remain unchanged till he is 3 years old. The mouth of the yearling and 2-year old cannot be confounded. The yearling mouth shows no signs of use, and the corner teeth are shells only ; at 2 years old these teeth are strong and well grown and the corner teeth filled up. A little before 3 years the two centre teeth of each jaw fall out and are replaced by permanent teeth. A little before 4 the two teeth on each side of the centre teeth are replaced by permanent ones. A little before 5 the two remaining are shed, and in their place come permanent ones. The upper milk teeth usually fall out first. Thus the mouth is completed as to its front teeth ; the corner tooth, however, is but imperfectly developed, being at present a shell only; this shell at 6 years old has filled up and is a complete tooth. This is the difference between a 5 and a 6 year old. The tushes appear between .'Hand 4 years old, and they take nearly two years to arrive at their full growth. These teeth, as the horse grows older, get blunter and shorter, and so, to an experienced judge, are a sure indication of age. Up to 6 years old the mouth isin adistinctand periodical state of structional change. There is no difficulty in determining the age up to that date. After that the age must be judged by the shape of the mouth and the appearance of the teeth called the mark. At 6 years of age the cups leave two centre teeth above, at 7 the next two above, at ft the outer-or corner teeth above. At 0 the two centre teeth below lose the cuts, at 10 the next two below, and at 11 the outer or corner teeth below. After a little practice the close observer can scarcely make a mistake. The changes that occur are the same in all horses, or nearly so.? Sportsman. A Severe Lesson in Tidiness.?"I learned a lesson in tidiness that I think will last me a lifetime," said a young married woman. "When J was a girl I wasdecidedly slovenly about my room, closets, clothing, etc. Once in a while, stirred by my mother's admonitions, I would have a regular clearance, and things would look immaculate for a short time, until they gradually relapsed into their normal state. Once, when they were just at their worst, I was taken suddenly ill and confined to my room and bed for a fortnight. I underwent agonies of mind during those two weeks, first, in having the doctor and my father come into my chamber when it was in such complete confusion ; next, in seeing my mother search vainly through the chaotic contents of my bureau drawers to find whole garments that I could wear. She said little, but her look, as she would be forced to pro duce needle and thread to repair tne various articles needed, spoke volumes. I had some very serious thoughts while I was lying there, and one of the resolves which I then made, and have kept ever since with faithfulness, was never to go to bed at night without having everything' in the order in which I should wish to have it found if I were taken ill before morning."? Christine Terhune llerriclc. How to Judge Canned Goods.?A hint, now, about articles of food put up in tin cans?and about meat, especially. Note, when about to purchase, thecondition of the tin; if the tin is bulged outward, don't take it, even as a gift. We will explain the process of canning to give weight to our warning. The meat is packed in tins while raw then sealed and cooked in an outer vessel of boiling water, with sometimes the addition of a chemical to raise the temperature. When cooked, the can is pierced, and, as soon as the air and steam have been expelled, it is soldered. Experts know when it is ready for soldering; a moment too soon and the mischief is done, because if air is left in it the tin bulges, and the meat will not be good. On the contrary, if the tin has sunk, it is an infallible sign of wholesomeness, it shows a vacuum ; which is natural, as the meat shrinks when 110 air is left in the can. Always look out for any little globules of solder that may find their way inside the can ; and take care, especially in the case of salmon and lobster, to empty the contents as soon as opened into an earthenware vessel. This is necessary for everything except milk.?CasftelVs Magazine for September. Uses of An Egg.?For burns and scalds nothing is more soothing than the white of an egg, which may be poured over the wound. It is softer as a varnish than col lodion, and being always at hand, can be applied. It is also more cooling than the sweet oil and cotton, which was formerly supposed to be the surest application to allay the smarting pain. It is the contact with the air which gives the extreme discomfort experienced from the ordinary accident of this kind, and anything that excludes the air and prevents inflammation is the thing to be at once applied. The egg is considered to be one of the best of remedies for dysentery. Beaten up slightly, with or without sugar, and swallowed at a gulp, it tends, by its emollient qualities, to lessen the inflammation of the stomach and intestines, and by forming a transient coating on these organs, to enable nature to resume her healthful sway over a diseased body.?Hull's Journal of Health. Lifting Out a Post.?Lifting out posts to renew the fence or change the line is usually very Hard and slow work, but the simple and effective method given in our illustration will show how it can be done both easily and quickly. A spadeful of earth is taken from each side of the post, as far down as it can be placed. A strong lever?a stout rail will answer the purposeis passed through the chain until the end of the rail catches firm soil. By lifting at the other end of the lever the post is raised several inches, when both chain and lever are pushed down again for a second hold, which generally brings the post out. The chain is furnished with a stout hook at one end, made to fit the links, so that it can be quickly adjusted to any ordinary post.? Amerhan Agriculturist. Household Hints.?a frequent change of position will prove restful to a person engaged in sewing or other confining work. Salt meat should be put in cold water to cook; fresh meat in boiling water, and if more water is added, it should be boiling also. To clean a bottle, put into it some kernels of corn, and a tablespoonful of ashes; fill it half full of water, and after a vigorous and thorough rinsing, the bottle will be found as good as new. To remove the stains of French shoe polish, either from w-oolen or cotton goods, wash the spot with ^tallow soap, and let it stand for an hour or so; then wash it in clean water, and afterward proceed as with any soiled article. Keeping Potatoes From Rotting? If potatoes are wet when dug, as they are apt to be late in the season, a little fresh lime scattered over the heap as they are put into the cellar will dry them. Do not put in deep bins or even barrels at first, as this will confine moisture where there is no circulation of air to dry it out. A slide made with slats one inch apart, with boards set edgewise will clear off most of the dirt ahereing to the potatoes when dumped into the cellar. The best way to stow them is in bushel boxes, which may be filled and piled one on another to the top of the cellar, if necessary. This allows some circulation of air, and makes the potatoes less liable to rot. j To Make Vinegar.?Put apple parings ; into a stone jar, cover them with cold softj water, and let them stand in a warm place j until fermented, having covered the top | with a clean cloth, and a newspaper, tied down to keep out insects and dust. Stir the peelings or turn the jars as often as convenient for you to do so. Take out and drain the liquid through a colander, and put it into a jug with pieces of white letter paper, or brown wrapping paper will do, to make mother. A little horse radish will improve it. Also half a cupful of molasses to four quarts will make nicer vinegar. HMtattwns |Uadiug. f QUEER HAPPENINGS IN WAR. I Men might write for 100 years of the cu- ^ rious phases of war, and still leave the sub- o ject fresh. War is a lottery, and the prizes i are shot, shell, wounds and death. Tens of r thousands of men served four years in the d late war and returned home. In 1,000 eases d recruits were killed within twenty-four c hours after reaching the front. War's mis- p siles are no respecters of persons; and the t soldier who fights an all day's battle without r receiving a wound may be killed in his tent d at night by the accidental discharge of a c musket. t At the battle of Franklin the first shell 1 sent from the first field-piece to open fire i killed twenty-six Confederates. The next five shells from the same gun either failed to explode or cleared the advancing lines. In this same .fight, the horse of a Confederate {1 colonel was cut square in two by a shot, and the rider escaped unhurt. Ten minutes af- j tera Union officer behind the breastworks , stumbled and fell forward on the ground, r breaking his neck. v In one of the assaults on Fort Wagner, in p Charleston harbor, the iron-clad fleet, assist- 1 ed by land batteries numbering twenty-sev- N en heavy cannon, bombarded the fort for ^ two hours before killing a single soldier. From seventy to eighty heavy cannon were hurling three tons of iron into the fort each minute, and yet r,o one was hurt until over 300 tons of "solid death" had been wasted. As an offset to this, witness the work of a } single solid shot thrown from a Federal gunboat on the lower Mississippi. A Confederate flying battery was just taking position-, and one piece had already opened fire. The Federal shot was aimed at this piece. The big mass of iron struck the sixpounder square on the muzzle and upset gun and carriage. A piece of the muzzle weighing about twenty pounds, was broken, and this flew to the left and killed two men. Three men were hurt by smaller fragments of flying splinters. The big shot next struck and exploded a caisson, killing three men and wounding two others. From the caisson it turned to the right, killed a horse, smashd a wheel of a field-piece, and crushed the leg of a sergeant to a bloody mass. That one shot so disorganized the battery that it limbered up and wheeled away to cover. ' While heavy ordnance is necessary in reducing forts and earthworks, it is doubtful if there was any profit in the work of the big guns carried by the iron-clads on the rivers. When McClellan fell back he had the cover of gun-boats, and some writers e have claimed that their fire saved his army c from capture. So far as the Confederacy j records show, the loss by the hundreds of c shells thrown over the heads of our troops t into the woods by these great cannon amounted to no more than 100 men. They c were a new thing then, and the awful crash c and terrific explosion on the men were de- N moralizing on the troops in line. f A Union gunboat on the White river j threw three shells into a Confederate camp, ^ killed nearly fifty men, and routed a force t of 800. Within a week after that event the j Confederate Gen. Shelby planted four piec- , es of flying artillery on the levee, within ( 400 feet of the same gunboat at anchor, and without the least cover for men or guns kept up the fight for over an hour, or until the gunboat backed out of it and steamed away. The chances in a lottery can be figured 1 ^A /i/iwtnin nan/iOntorTQ f\f DC. I UUYVU lllJt?, UIIU a tci lain pcitvuingv vi v? . capes is allowed in a steamboat explosion 1 but he who goes to war has nothing to con-: < sole him. He may dodge a 200-pound shell 1 and be killed by two buckshot. He may f receive a dozen bullets and live on, or the 1 first may be fatal. He may ride in the wildest charge unhurt, and he may be killed by 1 a stray bullet around his camp fire.?Army 1 Bulletin. ( , , i BEGIN IN TIME. 1 There is much of truth hidden under ' homely expressions such as this, and because of their apparent commonness we are ? apt to think lightly of them. Take this one as an example, apply it to almost anything that you will, and we at once see its reasonableness. Whether it be in regard to I performing a duty we owe to our fellow- * men, the taking of a journey, the reading of ,' a book, the writing of a letter, going to ^ church, and a thousand other things, any 8 one can see the propriety of beginning in c time. This will be almost half the work. ) Beginning in time shows that we have a 1 heart in the work, and whatever has heart c in it is almost certain to be carried on to r successful completion. But we wish to speak now more especially 8 of that little sin which is hidden in your heart; and which is just beginning to man- s ifest itself. We will not say what that sin is, you know that better than we do. But what we wish to say is, that if you [ waut to keep the garden of your heart clear 1 of weeds, begin in time and dig them out. These warm spring days and showers bring e out the seeds which careful hands have " planted, but it does not need an experienc- f ed eye to see here and there among the 1 growing plants pestiferous weeds pushing r themselves into notice. The wise gardener knows that these weeds strike their roots N deeper every day, and begins at once to destroy them. More may appear shortly, but not so many in number, nor will it re- . quire so much effort to keep the garden clean. It is just the same with that sin j, which will most surely get the mastery of you unless you weed it out. It makes no t difference what the sin is, it will spread with surprising rapidity until it pervades t the entire garden of your heart. Dig it out. Its roots will be deeper and stronger n to-morrow, and you will have less inclina tion to weed to-morrow, than you have n to-day. How many there are who would have escaped great misery if they had been I mindful of our advice. They saw the sin growing in their hearts, but it was only a { little thing, and they were not afraid of it, e but see it has become the bane of their lives. It has overshadowed everything r. else, it has rooted out all good, and now broken down in health spirit and reputa- v tion, they are reaping just what they have sown. Parents cannot be too careful in re- ^ gard to their children in this respect. The little sins which creep into their young { hearts must be taken out, and the time to do this is before they have struck their roots [ too deep into the fertile soil. Begin in * time if you wish to do anything good. Sow ' your seed at the proper time and you will have a harvest.?Christian World. Cold Feet ix Bed.?This is a very common complaint and one that causes a great deal of sleeplessness. First, on retiring at t night and again early in the morning we are 1 awakened by cold feet, and cannot get them | warm except by drawing them up almost to t the chin. This occurs not only in the young, t but in the middle-aged and the old. For t this there are two remedies?the hot bottle i and the lamb's wool socks, either or both of s which may be used. When we consider c that during the day, while we are active, v we wear stockings and shoes, does it not rJ seem strange that at night when the tern- t perature of the air is lower, and when we i are inactive, that our feet should have less t covering than during the day? The rea- a sonable plan is to have a special pair of c socks for night use, put them on when going s to bed and change them when we get up. i The result will be better and more serene j g sleep ; consequently we shall be more able I fJ to undergo our daily exertions. I say at j p once to all who suffer from cold feet, get a \ pair of warm socks for night wear. A good li walk for half an hour before retiring warms 1 the feet and sends a nice glow all through t the body and disposes to sleep. It must not j a be supposed that these remedies make one : fi less able to stand cold ; they are simply to ; retain the heat of the body and allow of j comfort and if followed much benefit will f: be derived.?T. R. Allison, M. J). \ t Is This Hot Enough??In 1303and 1304,: t according to a French periodical, the 1thine, t Loire and Seine ran dry. In 1615 the heat rl throughout Europe became excessive. Scot-11 land suffered particularly in 1625; men and a beasts died in scores. The heat in several n departments during the summer of 1705 g was equal to that in a glass furnace. Meat 1 could be cooked by merely exposing it to 1 the sun. Not a soul dared venture out be- o tween noon and 4 P. M. In 1718 many d shops had to close; the theatres never open- s ed their doors for several months. Not a I drop of water fell during six months. In ii 1773 the thermometer rose to 118 degrees.' y a 1779 the heat at Bologna was so great fu hat a great number of people were stifled, w ?here was not sufficient air for the breath, sc nd people had to take refuge under ground, or n July, 1793, the heat became intolerable. Vegetables were burned up and fruit dried n the trees. The furniture and wood work n dwelling-houses cracked ar. I split up; ^ neat went bad in an hour. The rivers ran t!l Iry in several provinces during 1811; expe- m lients had to be devised for the grinding of Pl orn. In 1822 a protracted heat was accom- re >anied by storms and earthquakes; during >7( he drought, legions of mice overran Lor- in nine and Alsace, committing incalculable cc lamage. In 1832 the heat brought about >7( holera in France; 20,000 persons fell vieims to the visitation in raris alone. In st 810 the thermometer marked 125 degrees ?.r n the sun. 01 n< THE FIRST BRIDGE. bl When was the first bridge constructed, **! " !??* T om nnf qKId II1U WUUt \VU9 lb lliauc Ul . x aiu uu% cw*v i: o answer that question very definitely, but f think I know what the first bridge was y nade of. It was not of wood, nor of stone, ^ lor of brick, nor ol iron, nor of rope. It ^ vas made entirely of monkeys?live mon- ^ :eys. A troop of these animals in a South Vmerican forest one day eame to a stream vhich was too wide for them to leap across. They climbed a high tree, where the first ^ nonkey selected a suitable branch, wound p ?is long powerful tail about it, and let him- y( elf hang head downward. The second ^ nonkey, running down the body of the first ^ vound its tail about its neck and shoulders, ^ ind let himself hang head downward. A 0, hird and a fourth added themselves in sueession, and others after them, till the chain gj eachecl the ground. Then the lowest monk- ^ sy, striking his hands on the earth, set the w iving pendulum in motion, and increased ar his motion by a swing again at each oscil- V( ation, till it swung so far across the stream sj. hat he was able to seize a branch of a tree >n the other side. The line of monkeys j1{ low constituted a bridge by which the re- jj, nainderof the troop quickly crossed over. Sg Then the monkey which (not who, as most jr >eople write it,) had been the first volunteer ta n this engineer corps, unwound his tail cc rom the branch and let go. What had be- _ ore been the top of the pendulum was now he bottom ; it swung across the stream, and lissolved into its original elements, and the " vhole troop went chattering on their way. This took place before the appearance of nan upon the earth, and the long tailed si nonkeys have been building such bridges F< iver since. F< Between that primitive bridge of monkys and the last and greatest of all bridges ^ iver undertaken?the suspension bridge >ver East River, connecting New York and nf Brooklyn?there is apparently a wide dis- 0f repancy; yet the two are constructed on ar lie same principle. of The first bridge recorded in history was re >ver the Euphrates at Babylon, in the reign , ?f Queen Nitocris. The course of the river co vas turned, and its bed laid dry, till the w oundations were built. The arches were of th mmense hewn stones, clamped together sc vith iron, and the whoie bridge was roofed ar >ver. It was thirty feet wide, and over six " lundred feet long. No remnant of this jreat bridge has been discovered in modern a, ,i mes.?Rossiter Johnson in the Wide A wake. Sc ?: th WHAT AVE KNOW ABOUT METEORS. in 1. The luminous meteor tracks are in 0l he upper part of the earth's atmosphere. w Few, if any, appear at a height greater han 100 miles, and few are seen below a leightof 30 mles from the earth's surface, ti< except in rare cases, where stones and iron si all to the ground. All these meteor tracks SI ire caused by bodies which come into the i lir from without. J 2. The velocities of the meteors in the air w ire comparable with that of the earth about tb ;he sun. It is not easy to determine the j ixact values of those velocities, yet they to nay be roughly stated as from 30 to 250 tb imes the velocity of sound in the air, or of 93 i cannon ball. c\ 3. It is a necessary consequence of these ai /elocities that the meteors move about the ?un and not about the earth as the coutrollng body. 4. That our four corqets, related to four )eriodic star-showers, that come on the * lates April 20th, August 10th, November 4th and November 27th. The meteoroids vhich have given us any one of these star- ' ihowers constitute a group, each indvidual >f which moves in a path which is like hat of the corresponding comet. The bod- of es are, however, now too far from one an- tb >ther to influence appreciably each other's i? notions. ; <h 5. The ordinary shooting stars in their IV ippearance and phenomena do not differ CI ssentially from the individuals in starhowers. jj, (I. The meteorites of different falls differ \v rom one another in their chemical com- tb >osition, in their mineral forms and in fn heir tenacity. Yet through all these dif- J' rences they have peculiar common prop- p rties which distinguish them entirely from ill terrestial rocks. 7. The most delicate researches have ailed to detect any trace of organic life in m neteorites. These propositions have practically uui- til 'ersal acceptance among scientific men. A ".Ninety and nine."?sanKey, ine re- ci 'ival singer, tells of his favorite song and S( he way it originated: _ "The Ninety and Nine" I place at the lead of the list. I well remember how I fr ame to compose the music to the words, t was done on the spur of a great and exited feeling. When I was going from, Edinburgh to Glasgow I picked up a paper ? n the train and came across the words, ['hey at once struck me as being full of feeing, so I hid the paper away in my pocket. The words rang in my ears. At Glasgow ve had a glorious meeting. Mr. Moody ireaced from the twenty-third psalm of )avid. He touched the hearts of the peo>ke. When he was about to close his sernon I did not know what to sing. I wantd to select something appropriate to the ermon, but I found nothing suitable. Those grand words, full of poetry, simple, -et beautiful: "He maketh me to lie down n green pastures; he leadeth me beside the till waters; he restoreth my soul; he leadstli me in the paths of righteousness for his lame's sake," as Mr. Moody closed with hem, acted as an inspiration. I hastily lulled the crumpled newspaper from my >ocket and sang the words of "The Ninety nd Nine" to music that came to me then ind there. I did not know how the accom>animent would go. The feeling of the noment carried me through, and I after- ti( vards wrote the music. Ca The Temple of Skkpents.?A small own of Werda, in the kingdom of Da- ? lomey, is celebrated for its temple of ser>ents, a long building in which the priests _ ;eep upward of a thousand serpents which I hey feed with the birds and frogs brought o them by the natives. These serpents, si nany of them of enormous size, may be u een hanging from the beams across the "1 eiling, with their heads hanging down- _ vards in all sorts of strange contortions. The priests make the small serpents go hrough various evolutions by lightly touch- J ng them with a rod, but they do not ven- W] ure to touch the largest ones, some of which it re big enough to enfold a bullock in their ha oils. It often happens that some of these 1>f erpents make their way out of the temple _ nto the town, and the priests have the ;reatest difficulty in coaxing them back. . To kill a serpent intentionally is a crime j ^ mnished with death, and if a European m vere to kill one, the authority of the king ; in timself would scarcely suffice to save nis j ife. Any one killing a serpent uniuten- j ionally must inform the priest of what has | incurred, and go through the course of puri- i *vj icaaction which takes place once a year. ! Pr A Turpentine Farm.?A turpentine j(1^ arm must be seen to be appreciated. When i ? he farm is pitched the boxes are cut one j o three in a pine, according to size. The rees are counted into crops of so many , housand, and this is called a virgin crop. ! 'he queer little gauge called a "buck," is \ hen brought to bear and a streak is cut j bove the box, which is simply a deep oval; otch pointing downward so as to lead the uui which exudes into the box below. ! .'hese boxes are made to hold about a quart. J . 'his first run is as clearas oil, and the finest. ~ f all. After being dipped out with a pad- j lie it is distilled and the hard rosin left is j. ometimes as white and as clear as glass, j t is very beautiful, and brings a good price u the great naval-stores markets. Secoud \ ear's gum is not as good a qualtity, but I ( lly so in quantity. Third year boxes hen the monthly hackings have made th ar high up, are still poorer, and from the i the crops hardly pay for working. Where the Blame Rests.?Youn rls are not always alone to blame for ovei ;ertion in social pleasures. Sometime eir parents, who are ambitious to see ther ake* brilliant figures in the gay whir] ish them on to excesses, or, at least do nc strain them. The consequence is tha >ung girls frequently exhaust themselve i a single season. Often they lose th dor, the vivacity and the enthusiasm c )uth, and become faded and dispirited be re they are out of their teens. Wors ill, they inflict permanent injury up 1 their health. The exhaustion of e> tement and fatigue often cause sleepless iss, and the ready dose of chloral or omide is relied on to quiet the nerve: lternate sedatives and excitement wea it, the nerves rnnidlv. and nrenare the vi< m for neuralgia, headacfies, dyspepsif id many other maladies of that kinc ery often when a young girl is smitte ith illness of this sort, the family spea ' it as a '^visitation of providence," whe ley ought to speak of it as parental mil anagement. The Throat and the Voice.?Th iroat is a wonderful instrument of musii lace the fingers upon it, and every tim )u speak you can feel the vibration < te vocal organs, producing sound. Anj ling that even touches the throat impaii le purity of those sounds. Fling a clot /er the strings of a piano or violin, an )t music out of it if you can. So ever oth which surrounds the throat impaii ie sweetness of the voice. Women g ith necks bare; men have theirs swathe id bandaged, and ten women have swe< lices where one man has. A man's voi< lould be as pure as a woman's. Why not? He is shaved and choked. Go is provided a covering for man's throa ?ht and soft; it clothes the neck and pri rves the health. But a man gets a shar on, scrapes his neck, ties a rag around i kes cold, has a sore throat, bronchiti insumption and dies.?Christian Advocat Ibr f orferillr <?nquim TEUML8 OF 8UBSCUIPTION: ngle copy for one year, $ 2 5 k six months, 1 2 3r three months, 7 ivo copies one year 4 0 jn copies one year 20 0 nd an extra copy for a club of ten.
