J, L. Canning ham is the senior mem
ber of the Boston firm which nearly en
joys a monopoly ia supplying masts for
?esseis boils on the Atlantic coast.
Twenty years ago, says ilr. Cunningham,
ressels were smj.!er than now and tim
, faer for masts could be had in New Hamp
shire and Maiae. When the forests there
were thinned out they fell back on 3Iichi
gan.
Bert of late years the denaani has been
/or larger masts thnn even the pine there
furnished, and the northern pine forests
of Washington .vere called upon. These
are loaded into a chartered vessel and
shipped to Boston arr>uad the Horn. Mr.
Cubttia^ham ships cne cargo a year in
this way, a tvd he has only got one com
petitor- He is now on his vrny to Port
Biakely, Wash., to superintend theload
ing of a vessel which has a capacity of
1,400,00(1 feet of lumber.
"The Northern pine,'7 he says, "is
^next to the w^ite oak in strength, anl
h? double the strength of the Eastern
' piae. I buy nothing over 315 feet in j
length, bo5 we could gut maot3 150 feet
long if we wante-1. it i? little trouble
to get a stick 150 feet long without ar
knot. The lumber basinets iu Washing
ton is extremely dull, and half tie mills,
along the Po<:et Sound are idle. A stick
that cost $110 a year ago can be bought |
to-day $60. The reason? The South |
American and A.isiralian markets have
overstocked, and there is no fie- j
mau3. T$e markets are glutted. Why, {
a year ago the freight on 1000 feet ot {
lumber to South American ports was
$84.50. To-day it is $9.59. And the
? worst ot it is, there are no prospect of '
improvement for the present."
It may surprise many to know that for
twenty years this firm has been shipping ;
timber for masts from the Pu-^et Sound
country. At first cargoes were only lent
every few years, but of iate a cargo a j
j ear is the rule. The timber is shipped
in the rough, and the masts are shaped j
at the various New England and Eastern
?hipyarus. ? St. Paul (Mian.) T*k>neer j

a tighal gong or telegraph for communi
cating between the engine room and
deck, also for transmitting steerage and^
lookout signal*, alam gongs, etc. If
apj*ears to us that an Kn^fi^h firm main,
tains a close monopoly or^'these. special
ties just now, and the field is somewhat
noticeable on account of no American
"'irstrumtats or sjsteai bein; on the
market;. \ This is not a* it should be,
nor do vfe believe but that more perfect,
datable and efficient mechanism might
"be devise i by an American who would
turn his attention to this special feature
of a steamer's outfit, and it is a foregone
conclusion that a lar^'e patronage awaits
the inventor thereof. ? Marine Kecord.
Canning of Gu'ifi.
An example of the cunning of gt^ls
was observed at Tacoma, Washington,
^ when several alighted on a bunch of
logs that has been in the water for a
' long time, with the snbmeiged sides
x thick "with barnacles. One was a big^
gray fellow, who seemed to be the Cap
tain. He walked to a particular log,
fttood on one side of it close to the
waller, and then uttered peculiar crietf.
The other gul!s came aad perched on the
same side of the log, which under their
combined weight rolled over seve^U
finches. The guils, step by step, kept
the- log rolling untii the barnacles
shewed akbove the water. The birds
picked eagerly at this food, aod the log
was not abandoned ^ntil every barnacle
had been picked.? New Orleans Timea

The first requisite of a profitable dairy
is good cows. It will not do to trust
wholly to breed to secure theip; the m-.
dividual cow must be the subject of close "'

and comfort can be given a cow, the
greater will be her yield of milt. ?
American Farmer.
Professor Beach, of the New York ;
r;?? pen meat Ststioa, says that the first
indication of the powdery mildew which 1
ittacks the apple, peach and plum seed- }
lings is the appearance of cobweb spots j
on the leaves in spring. These spread
antil the whole leaf is covered. The
disease attach both the upper and un
der surface, but does not enter the
tissues. It can be kept in check by five ^
or six applications of the ammoniacal
solution of copper carbonate at intervals
o? about twelve days, the first to be
sonde when the leaves are about half-de
veloped. Hoth upper and under sur
faces should be thoroughly sprayed. Th';
cost, aside from the labor expended in
making the applications, is about tea
cents per 1000 trees. ? New York World.
A TAR ROOP FOR A ROOT HOCSK.
A serviceable covering miy be made
over a root house, undd^he gangway of
a barn, byfir?t covering with cedar logs,
as suggested, and these covered with a
concrete of tar and sand. B it something
must be used under this covering to pre
vent a loaded wagon from shaking the
support and so cracking th-? concrete.
This protection will be afforded by laying
three inch planks over the logs,and then
covering 4tese with the floor of concrete.
Lighter plank3 might do, if a few iaches
of earth or gravel be laid on them, and
the concrete then laid down. The earth
would give the requisite elasticity to the
^ragon way. The concrete is made by
"Jhrixirjg the sand, first heated on a sheet
Iron pan, with the hot tar, until the tar
? all absorbei??pd will not run. This is
then rolled firmly and cleau sand is
ftn-ead on to take up the surplus tar as
It may work to the top. Beating with a
fat plank rammer will do as well as the
roller. ? New York Times.
ODOROUS BUT USEFUL.
I think skunks do a vast amount of
good and not much harm, is ttosState
raent of D. ' Barper of , Genesee
County. We had a twenty-twos>acre lot
infested with white grubs last fall, so
much so that you could not look on the
ground anywhere without seeing ^rhere
tbe grubs had followed the drill-marks
*nd eaten off the row of wheat for?a
jpace of six inches to a foot or more. In
j October skunks had been over the whole
3eld and removed the grubs so, that we
could not find one of the spots that had
been eaten off bat what' the grub had
jeen taken out. The skunk can put its
sharp nose right cn the spot where the
i grub is at work. We have had a few
yhen-egas eaten by skunks, but not
j toougp. to notice. The moet loss we
?ver suffered from them was when an
old dog tried to pick up one about ten
rodsafrwqatbe house; then the odor per
vaded everything near there. A crock

POTATOES FOR BREEDING EWES.
Raw potatoes, beets, carrots, turnips,
iad othef kinds of loots may be given
;o breeding ewes with great benefit, pro
vided they are ^ *a small quantities at
3rst, inefcasing the rations as the animals
I become accustomed, to such soft and sue- j
culent food. In no case should so muck
be given as to cause looseness of the
bowels, or what is usually termed scours, I
and when there are indications of this
the roots should be withheld until the
droppings have returned to their norma1
conditions. If the potatoes ire large of
medium size they should be cut up intc
I dices, but very small ones may be fed
whole. One quart of cut potatoes and a ,
oint of brau sprinkled over them would
>
be a fair ration to begin with, and only
Dncc a day, increasing to double the
quantity in^ the course of three dc foui
weeks. A little salt, say a "teaspjonful
'jo each animal, may be added to each
ration, unless salt is kept where the sheep
:an help themselves. It is common prac
tice to feed breeding ewes grain of some
kind with <?ood hay on well-cured corn
stalks, but all most?, mouldy food should
be avoided, as it is likely to cause abor
tions. There is nothing' better to in
;rease a flow of milk than sugar beets, 1
md every farmer who keeps sheep should
raise a quaatlt# ot these roots to feed his
breeding cwe| ? Xew York Sun.
fetSE FOR PIGS.
One of theynost profitable crops for
pigs that -can ete planted in the spring of
the year is pease** and land cannot be
made to produce ar.y crop that returns
*o much to the owner. The pease may
be raked, stacked nnd fed to the pigs
from the stack, or the swine may be
turned into tue iieid and allowed to eat
what they will. In t le early part of
A.a<_just those that are ne^de J for seed
should be gathered. On every live acre; ;
of pea grouad-^tuta^ about t.venty-five
piers !%osc, and if the? have been fed a i
little corn through the summer they will
be in fine condition for the first market.
The fir^t market h always the best, and
the first pigs that are fattened oa the
pease will save '-he corn for other par
poises. In addition to this the land after
the pigs have eaten the pease from it will
befin excc'.:ent condition for winter wheat.
*The"best soil for the field pease is i
moderately rich, sandy loam, and timothy !
sod on such soil c-an be turned over for j
the crop very successfully. O i low, wet j
cold grounds the pea vines Will not thrive i
well enough to warrant one in planting J
them. Too rich soil is bad for them, i
for the plauts go all to vine, and produce !
no pease. The earlier the seed bed is
piowed and prepared in the spring the
better the crop will be. T vo bushels of
common peaae should be sown broadcast
to the acre, and then dragged in well.
If properly sawn they will sooa covet the
field with a irreen mantle* The pea vines
and the pig manure ennch the soil, and
the hoofs of the animals pulverize it so
that the field is a most excellent one for
winter wheat in the fall of the year.
Pea vine,epsilftge is a valuable food,
cot only for pigi, bnt for cattle and the
famous Soatfeera cow pea can be planted
with great advaitas* on mwiy toil*. It
is a fine crop for enriching aod improv
ing the mechanical coaditiooS of the
ground, and the ensilage which it makes
is considered as valuable notify as that
of corn. Land that is devoted to cow
reas in the summer can also bew seeded
oown U* wheat rery successfully in tbe
fall. The sweet. s>?coulent ensilage will "
also-jnake a fine ration for the animals all
through tbe winter. On the whole, the
va!ue,;of pease and pea vines haa && be^r
justly appreciates! t>y many faxdHa ar>-i

ities.
Growers are regarding with much
favor the Frederick Clap pear, which '

Every care should be taken that the ;
roots of transplanted trees are not ex
posed to either sun or wind.

Maine Potnoiogical Society.
. If not already done, cover over your ;
strawberry bei with straw ro remain anl
protect the fruit from the ground.
Oue of the best plans of manage nen ?
with the chickens and turkeys is to
change the male* at least once a year.
Etrly1 maturity is securing a large
growth at an early age; but to receive
the best results quality must go with it.
One of the most important kem? in
tbe management of vouag turkeys is to
keep them dry, at least until the feather?
are well started.
Some hens never make good sitters,
and hence should never be Allowed to
sit ; a good mother is.oeceisary to rais<j
the young fowls.
March and April arc the best for hateh- J
ing, and all reasonable care should be :
taken to secure as large a number a? pos
sible during this time.
. See that the sitting hens have ready
&CC0M to plenty of food and water, so
that they will not be obliged to leave
their nests too long at any one time.
If the incubator chickens are a little
late, better sell them when they will
average one and a half pound in weight
rather than risk Tower prices a little
later.
There is rib advantage in putting too
large a number of eggs under the setting
hens; fifteen is as many as a good large
hen can cover, and a smaller hen should
be given a less number.
In setting out trees, shrubs, berry
plants, berry bushes or flowers, be sure
you leaye no open interstices under the
roots; make sure that the soil toucuei
the roots at every point.
Low-lying lands should, as a rule, bo
avoided ior fruit trees. In general the
best results are obtained on high ground,
when the soil may be too rough fur other
tillage, yet reasonably fertile.
"When spring planting is in order se
the strawberry plants as early as tiie sea
son will allow. If profit only is the ob
ject, select wgll tested varieties that are
favorites in your nearest market.
When you set a broody hen, give her
a green sod for the botl:oa* ( f her nest ;
it tends to keep moisture for the eggs.
Mark the date of setting on each egg, and
see to it that no hens lay to her or break
her eggs.
Fifty fowls may be kept in one house,
provided the place is kept clean and
sweet and furnished with a good run.
The fowls should have wholesome food*
varied with green stuff, ground b,one
meal, and coarsely ground oyster-shell.
Fowls should become usei to their
quarters.
Book-keeping is just as necessary in
poultry keeping a? i& ordinary mercan- !
tile business. Debi', the hens with all
1
food, buildings and general labor in their
behalf, and credit then with all e^gs,
poultry and stock jold. Theo, at the
end of the year, or in fact any time, your
financial standing will be readily discov
ered.
Absorbents are of great value to the
poultry house. Dry ioam, smuck, coal
ashes, etc., are splen lid fcr "taking ia"
' not only moisture and dampness, but also
the various noxious gasses, such as am
monia and carbonic acid gas, which are
always present in greater or lesser quan
tities. A pure dry atmosphere is essen
tial to health.
Among the anomalies of nomenclature
noticed in our market reports are the
words "Irisi potatoes/' applied to cur
common potato. The potato is purely
an Americau. Ireland never siw one
until it was sent there from this conti
nent. The same is true of the tomato,
Owiag to the very large use of this veg
etable in Southern Europe m-my persons
are of the opinion that the tomato was a
nitive of that section.
irom tne reecn^g or tne nen in winter
for eggs, ail the way through the line of
domesticated animals until we reach the
highest bred and m >st valuable trotter,
the matter of . selectc I feeds, properly
balanced fceis, and Jeedi: adapted to the
;nd desired and essential to the accom
plishments of the highest results is what
the American farmer and feeder has to
direct his most earnest attention to.
First feed the soil, then the animal, and
do both scientifically.
A Jf.in Who Grew a New Lungr.
Not long ago the writer wm in a coun
try noted for its healthful ness. One of
the men whose business is to boom the
town told the following as an induce
ment :
4 'There ^as a mau who lived in Illin
ois who had consumption, He had $10,
000 life insurance which he had placed
on his life before he became marked.
The doctortf'told him him he could not
live six months; his friends encouraged
him the same way. He told them that
he did not think be would live that long,
and that he did not care if he died the
next day. He made a sale of his lite in
surance policy at seventy- hve cent*
the dollar, aud came here with his $7,
500 in mooey. He went to the cametery
and bought a lot, and got it f mighty
cheap, for there was never much demand
for that sort of real estate in thi^ vicini-^
ty. While he wa> fixing it up, an 1
while he was cultivating the acquaint
ance of an undertaker, he be^an to get
better. He had one lung when he came
here, and you couli hear him breathe a
i block away. He lingered until he began
to pick up, and tht first thing we kuew
| he had sold his lor. in the cemetery. ; He
actually grew a new lung without taking
anything except the blessed atmosphere
of this glorious climate. He got well of
the tjonsumption. He went into busi
ness on his life insurance money and
lived ten years. His death was caused
then by an accident. He had trrown to
mate, but it is ft good place to make
money. There was a man in Galveston
who had a row with his son aoout some
thing, and he told, him one day that he
woatd give him $10- JO for every mile he

The Brooklyn Divine's Sun
day Sermon.
Txxt: uThe slothful man roasteth not
that which he took in hunting." ? Prov
erbs xiL, 27.
t>arid and J eremiah and Ezekel and
and Solomon of the text showed that some
time they had been oat on a hunting ex
pedition. Spear?, lances, swords ana nets -
were employed in this service. A deep pit
fail would be digged. In the center or it
there was some raised ground with a pole oo
which a lamb would be fastened, and the
wild beast not seeing the pitfall, but only
seeing the lamb would plunge for its prey i
1 and dash down, itself captured. Birds wera 1
caught in grins or pierced with arrows. The
hunters in olden time bad two missions? one
to clear the land of ferocious blasts, and the
other to obtain meat for themselves and
their families. The occupation and ha')itof
hunters are a favortfe Bible simile. David
said he was hunted by his enemy like i par
tridge upon the mountain. My text Ss a ;
hunting scene.
A sportsman arrayed in a g.?rb appropri
ate to the wild chase lets alio the* oloo '- j
thirsty hounds from ttjvir kennel-, aril i
fcnounting his fleet horse, wfth a hilioo and j
the yell of the greyhound pack th?y ai\s j
off and away, through brak-.? and deit. over I
marsh and moor, across chasms waere a
misstep would hurl borsj and rider to de*th, ;
plunging into mire up to the haunches or in- :
to swift streams up to the bit, till the garni |
is tracked by dripping foam and blood, an I j
the antlers crack on the rock?, and the ;
hunter has just time to be in at the death. .
Yet, after all the haste and peril of tha j
chase, my tex ; rcpreseat> this sportsman as j
bemg too indolent to dress the game an I j
prepare it for food. He lets it lie in tbe
dooryard of his home and become a portion
for vermin and beaks of prey. Thus by on a
master stroke Solomon enves a picture of
laziness when he say?, "The s-lotbfu! man
roasteth not that which he took in hunting.-'
The most of hunters z^ave the game they
shot or entrapped coo ed ths same evening
or the next day, but not so with this laggard j
of the text. Too lazy to rip off the hide..
Too lazy to kindle the fire and put the grid
iron on the coals.
The first picture l-ever bou?bt was an en
graving of Thorwaldseu's ''Autumn v Th*
clusters of grapes are ripe 011 the vine of the
homestead* and the returned hdun is, pant
1?% ? ch.ase- are ^iag on tha doorsill
,s UI1S -oulierin- the game,
wliilta the housewife ib about to talse a
portion of it and prepare it for the evening
meal. Lnuke the person of the text she
was enough industrious to roast that which
had been taken in hunting. Buttheworlif
has had "many a specimen since Solomon's
tiDi6 of thos^r whose Jassitudd and iairirovi;
dence and absurdity were depicted in ray
j , 111031 those who ha\4
made a dead failure of life can look back
and see a tune when a great opportunity
opened, but they did not kunw it.
They were net as wise as George Stephen
son, the father of railways," who, when at
sixteen years of age he received an appoint
ment to work at a pumping engine for
twelve shilling a weak, cried out- "Now I
am a made fl|$h for life." God gives to most
men at least one good opportuuity. a great
Grecian general was met by a group of beg
gar?, and he ?aid to them: "If vou want
beasts to plow your land I will Jen J you
some. If you want land 1 will give you
some. Tf you want seed to <tow your land
I will see that you get it. But I will encour
age none m idleness.-' So God gives to most
people an opportunity of extrication from
depre&sed circumstances. As if to create
>n us a hatred for indolence, God has
made those animals which are slug
gish to appear loathsome in our
while those which are fleet and active he
has clothed with attractiveness.
T be tortoise, the sloth, the snail, the croco
dile repel us, while the deer and the gazelle
j are as pleasing as they are fleet, and from
the swift wings of innumerable birds Go I
b&s spared no ptirole or gold or jet or crim
en or snowy whiteness. Resides all this the
Bible is constantly assaulting the vies of
laziness. Solomen seems to order the idler
out of his.$ight as beyond all human instr u>
tion when he says, "Go to the ant, thou slug*
gam; consider her ways and he wise.'' And
Paul seeins to drive him up from his dinin?
table before be gets through with the flr^t
course of food with the assertion, "if any
will not work, neither shall he eat."
Now, what are the causes of laziness and
what aj*e its evil results? I knew a mail who
was never up to time. It seemei impossible
j for him to meet an engagement. W hen he
was to be married be inis#ed the train HU
watch seemed to take on the habits of its
owner, and was always too slow. He had a
institutional lethargy for which he did not
seem responsible. So indolence often arises
from the natural temperament. I do not
know but there is a constitutioual tendency
to this vice in evvry man. However active
you may generally be, have you not on some
warm spring <Xay felt a touch ot this feeling
on you. although you may have shaken jt off
as you would a reptile? But some are >>
powerfully tempted to this by th?ir bodilfc
constitution that ail the work of their lite"*
has teen acifcmpiished wita this lethargy
hanging on their back or treading on their
creels.
You sometimes behold it in childhooJ.
The child moping and longing within doors
whde bis brothers and sisters are at play, or
if he join them ho is behind in every race
and beaten in every game. His nerves, his
musclar bones are smitten with this
palsy. He r vegetates ratSer than lives,
creeps rather than walks, yawns rather
than ureatbes. The auimat in nis uatura is
stronger than the intel!ceual. He is gen
erally a great eater and- active, only when
he caDnot digest wiirft he has eaten. Itre
quires as much effort for hunto walk as for
others to run. Languor and drowsiness are
his natural inheritance. He is vbuilt for a
s'.ow sailing vessel. a heavy hulk itoi an in
sufficient cutwater. Place an active man
in such a boJiiy structure and the latter
would be shacken to pieces in one day.
Evtry law of physiology demands tK^at he
be supine. Such a one i? not responsible for
this powerful tendency o!i his nature. His
great duty is resistance.
When I see a man lighting an unfortunate
temperament all my sympathies are aroused,
and I think of Victor Hugo's accouat of a
scene on a warship, where, in the midst of a
storm at sea, a great cannon got loose, and
it was crashing this way and that an ! would
have destroyed tne ship: and the chief gun
ner, at the almost certain destruction or his
own life^rusbel at it with a hanispi!ceto
-.thrust bWween the spokes of the wheel of tha'
trolling cannon, and by a fortunate leverage
arrested the gun till it could be lashed fast.
But that struggle did not seem so dishearten
ing as that man enters upon who attempts
to fight his natural temperament, whether it
be too fast of too slow, t?fb nervous or too
lymphatic. God help him, for God only can.
Furthermore, indolence is o'teu the result
of easy circumstances. Kough experience
in earlier life seems to be necess&ry in order
to make a man active and enterprising,
woun'aineers are nearly always swarthy,
and those who hav> tolled among mountains
of trcn I- get j ??? ?_? most nerve and niuscl?
and brain. Those who have become the de
liverers of nations, once had not where to
'ay their heads. Locusts and wild honey
have been the far? of many a John the Bap
tist. while those who had been f on lie! of *
fortune and petted and praised have often
^rown up lethargic.
They have none of that heroism which
comes from fighting on As own battles. T^ie
warm surom -r sun of prosperity has w>ak
?ned and relaxed them. Born among the
-usuries of life, ex^rt-on ha^ been unneces
sary. and therefore they s^ljpnd thair time in
faking it easy. They may enter into busi
ness. but they are not fitted for its applica
tion, its hardships, for its repulses, and after
having lost the most of that which they have
?nveste^ro haok to thoronrh inaction. This
'xistJy ya^it may do well enough on the
smooth, ^fessy bay, but cannot live an hour
amid a chopped sea .
Another cause of indolence is severe dis
couragement. There are tho-e around us
who started life with the rro^t saDguine
expectation. Ther enterprise excitea th?
remark of all compeers. B it some sudden
and overwhelming misfortune met thf.xi.
^nd henceforth they have been inact 'e.
Trouble, instead of making them more % ?,
I erminod, have overthrown them. They
have lost all self-reliance. They imtgine that
? d mop r?ndab otymrrenoasare nraiu^t them.
They hang their heals when once they
walked upright. They never loo> you up in
the eyes. They become inwpjnfcaropec aoi
| pronounce ati men i?^1t:?C3unireis.
They go m?lanchoIifr*BKitllJl^iShare totheir
graves. You ^annotrotra th?m to action by
?be moct trlittArm? offer. ? j; 1 -? j k
In most cases these persons dare been hon
orable and upright all the r live?, for rogues
; never get discouraged, as there is always
some oiher plot they have not !ai 1 an i soma -
other trap they have not sprung. There are
bat fe-w sadder sights than a man of talent
and tact and" undoubte I capacity giving
up life as a failnre, like a line of inagniricent
steamers rotting against: wharves, from
which they ought to have been carrying the
*TDort? of m nation. Bverv rreat financial
panic produces a large cropor such men. in
'he great establishments where tbev -were
partners in business they are now weighers
or draymen or clerics on small salary .
Reverie is also a cause of indolence. There
i ire multitudes of men whoezoect to achieve
great success in life, who arv entirely un
billing to put forth any phy. <ica!, m -riil or
tctellectual effort. * They hare a gre*t many
?Jr?si?nt theories of life. Thaw are all the
vhile expecting something to turn' op.
They have read m light literature how meo
suddenly >and unexpectedly cam# to l?m
states, or found a pot of barfed gold at
. foot ot the rainbow of Good Luck, or had
some great ofler made them. TbVy have
passed their lives in reverie.
NotwithstapdJng~he is pinched with pov
erty. and any c f her man would be downcast
at the forlorn prosp^t, he is always, cheer
ful and sanguine an 1 jovial, for he does not
know but that he may be within a day or
two of astouniin z suocass. You cannot but
be eut*rtaine:l with his cheerfulness of tem
per. All the world wishes him well, tor he
never did anybody harm. At last he dies in
just the same coudition in which he lived,
sorrowful only because must leave the
world just at the time wj^Biis iong-thought
al nlans were about to be^Gccessful
Lgt no young mau b?gin iifp with reverie.
The** is nolhiug aocotnplishei without hard
work. Do not in idleness expect something
to turn up. It wjll turn down. Indolence
and wickelness always make bad luck.
These people of reverie are always about to
begin. They .say, 'Wait a little* So with
the child who had a cage containing a beau
tiful cana^v, and th* door of the cage was
open and a cat was in the room. "Better
shut the door of the cage," said the mother.
"Wait a minute," said the boy.- IV h ile he
was waiting the faline creature with one
spring took tha canary. The way that
many lose the opportunity of a lifetime is
by the same principle. They say, "Wait a
minute." My advice is not to wait qt ail .
Again, bad habits are a fruitful Boii*aa.a?^
indolenc?. S:n!ul indulgences shut a man's"
shop ani dull his tools and steal his profits.
Dissoluteness is generally the end of in
dustry. There are those who have the rare
faculty of devoting occasionally a day or a
week to loos* induteeuces. and at the ex
piration or tnat time ga.bacs witn bleared
eves anl tremulous handstand bloated
cheeks to the faithful and successful per
formance of th?ir duti-3% Indeed their em
ployers and neighbors exp?ct this amuse
ment or occasional season of ffolic and
wassail. \J
Some of the best workmen and most skill
ful artisans have this mode of conducting
themselves, but as the tiaie rolls on the sea
soti of dissipation becomes more protracts 1
and the season of steadiness and sobriety
more Limited, until the employers b?00111?
disgusted and the man is given up tda con- i
tinual and ruinous idleness. Wh|i that
point has arrived he rushe3 to destruction
with astonishing velocity. When a man
with strong proclivities of appetite has noth
ing to do, no former self respect or moral
restraiut or the bessechings of kindred can
save him . The only safely for a man who
feels himself under the fascination of any
form of temptation is an employment which
affords neither recreation nor holiday.
Nothing can be more unfortunate for a
man of evil inclination than an occupation
which keeps him exceedingly busy daring a
part of the year and then leaves him for
weeks and months entirely unemployed.
There are many men who cannot enHura
protracted leisure. They are like fractious
steeds that must constantly be. kept to the
load, lor a week's quiet makes them intrac
table and uncontrollable. Bad habits pro
duce idleness, and idleness prodnces bad
habits. The probability is that yon will
either have to giva'up your loosa indulgences
or else give up your -occupation. Sm will
take all enthusiasm out of your work and
make'you sick of life's drudgery, and though
now and then between your saasons of dissi
pations you may rouse up to a suidan
activity and start again in the chase of some
high and noble end, even though you catch
the game you will sink back into slothfulness
before you have roasted that which you took
in hunting. Pad habits untit a man for any
thing but politic*.
Now, what afbethe results of indolence? A~~
marked consequence of this vice is physical
disease. The nealthiuess of the whole natu
ral world depends upon .activity. The
winds, tossed and driven in endless circuits,
scattering the mists from the mountains, and
scooping out tfeath damps from the cave?, |
and blasting toe miasma of swamps, and
hurling back the fetid atmosphere of great
cities, are healthy just because of Their
swiftness and uncontrollableness of sweej^
But. after awhile, the wind falls and the ,
hfet san pours through it, and when the
leaves are still and the grain fields bend not
ohce all day long, then pestilence smites its
victims and digs trenches for the dead .
All the healthy beauty of that whicti we
see and hear in the natural world is depend ?
ent upon activity and \jfrrest. Men -will be
healtny? intellectually, morally aud physi
cally? only upon the condition of an active
industry. 1 know men die every day of over
work. i They drop down In coal pits, and
among the spindles of Northern factories,
and on the cotton plantations of the South.
In every city and town and village you find
men groaning under burdens as, in the East,
the camels stagger wider their loads between '
Aleppo and Damascus . Life is crushed out
every day at counters and workbench* and
anvils . But there are*other multitudes who
die from mere inertia. Indulgences every
day are contractu^ disease beyond fchi
catholicon of allopathy and homeopathy and
hydropathy and ecleoticism. Rather than
work they rush upon lancets and scalpels.
Nature has provided for those wao violate
her laws by inactivity? what r?eum for the
eyes, and what gout for the fdet, and what
curvature for the spine, and what strictures
fgs-tk^ chest, and what tubercles for the
-"tungs, ancl what rheumatism for the muscle?,
ami what neuralgias for the nerves. Nature
in time arraigns every such' culprit at her
bar, and presents against him an indictment
of one hundred counts, and convicts ttf^ou
each one of them. The laws of nature-will
not stop their actioa- because men may be
ignorant of them. Dfsease, when it come3
to do its work, does not ask whether you un
derstand hygiene or pathology or materia
medica .
If there were not so many lies written on
tombstones and in obituaries vou would see
what multitudes of the world s inhabitants
are slain in their attempts to escape the
necessity of toil. Men cross oceans and con-*
tinents, and climb the 41ps, and sit under
the sky of Italy or the shadow of Egyptian
Pyramid, an 1 go down into ancient ruins,
an ! bathe at Baden Baden, and come home
with the same shortness of breath, and (he
same poor digestion, and the same twitch
ing of the nerves, when at home with their '
own spade the* might have dug health out
of the grouuJ, or with their own axe hewn
health out of n log, or with their own scythe
garnered health from the grafn field.
There are inanv who estimate the re
spectability ot an occupation by the little
exertion it demands, and would not lave
their children enter any employment where
their hands may be soiled, forgetting that
a laborer's overalls are just as honorable as
a priest's ro'jes ail I an anvil is just as re
spectable as a pulpit. Health flies from the
be'? of i own and says. "1 cannot sleep
here;'' and from the table spread with
. ptarmigan and epicurean viands, saying, "I
cannot eat here anl from the vehicle of
soft cushions and easy springs, saying, "I
cannot ride bore;"' and "from houses
luxuriously wermei and upholstered, say
ing. "I cannot live here;'' and someday you
meet health, whodeciiuei all these luxuriant
