-Columbusi (Ga.) Sentiidel : Sever
al parties that leit our State last Fall
for the West, write back that theylon't
fiud it as they expected. This reminds
its of the Georgia youth who went to
Texas to better his condition a few
years ago, and penned the following
lines tolis nMother while in that State :
"I am sitting on tlhe stile, mother,
Which doesn't coiuelde
With what the agent promised me
I'd find upon this side.
Ile said that all was green out here,
That cori was twelve feet high;
The corn is on my foot, mother,
And the green is in my eye.
Thuis morn I bade a long farewell.
To my Stiunday coat of blue,
I pawned It to buy a stami)
To send these lines to von.
If I can e'er get back again,
That agent P'll destroy;
I'll stop his lying, that I will,
s sure as Pin You. BoY.'

Children or adults subject to ear
ache should wear a little raw cot
ton in the ears during this scason.
A good way to exercise the arms
is to swing them backward and for
ward, touching them each time.
A medical writer suggests the
use of oil of wmntergreen, with an
equal quantity of olive oil or soap
liniment, as an applictation for
rheumatism.
Sage tea, with a little bay rum
addel, makes a goaod wash for the
hair when it inclines to fall out.
It. renders the hair sott and indu
ees growth.
Brush the hair every night and
keep the scalp clean an(d free from
dandruff ; also clip the ends of'
the hair regularly once every
month, if you would keep it thick
anid soft.
'The tongue should be washed
every day, as well as the teeth.
Many perlsonls who are very care
fuli of' the teeth neglect this. I(t
keeps the breath sweeter and leaves
a pleasanlt taste.
MI. Vieusse, p~rincipal medical
oflicer of the medical hosp)ital at
Oran, states that excessive sweat
ing of thme feet;, under whatever
form it appears, can b~e quickly
('ured by enrfulCIlly condullcted fric
tioni with thme subi -nitrate of his
munth, anid even in the f'ew cases
where4L this suppreiCsses the abu n
(u!t Suwonti n nly temnor'arile it
still removes the severe pain and
the fetidity which often accompa
ny the secretion. Dr. Vieusse
has never found any ill consequen
ces to follow the suppression of the
sweating.
ToPNoDDY.-'My dear.,' said Mr.
Topnoddy to his wife Wednesday,
'did you know the circus had left
town and there was to be no exhi
bition?'
'No, Topnoddy, I didn't, and I
don't care, either.'
'Well, my dear, I do. You know
I always liked circuses. There's
something so youthful and invig
orating about theni. They never
have anything new, of course, but
for one to go and see a show, and
bear the same old jokes he heard
when he was a little boy, brings
back fond recollections of child
hood, and renews his youth.'
'It. doesn't -strike me that way.
All I have been able to see is a
clown and a donkey trying to see
how mnuch worse they can make
themselves than their Creatoi in
tended them to )e.
'Don' you like to see! that ?'
'I might if I wasn't so used to
it, but I have had the same combi
nation right here in the house with
me so long that the novelty is worn
off, and I want'to see someth1ling
else when I go to a show.'
Topnoddy glanced at himself in
the glass, and went out without
speaking.-Drumi-mer.
A Soun Is1osrrIos.-In a can

'Not altogether.'
'Wa he cross, thten?'
'Well, yes, rather, in places.'
'W~as he very cross?'"
'Considerably.'
'How cross was he ? Give us. an
example of his dipsto.
'Well, sir, he was that cross that
when he called up) the cows at

-That's enough. Stand down.'
'To BE PrruIm.-'I see thait an
Ohio p)ostmristress hais re'signed her

remarked old Penedict to his
wife.
Poor thing ! I pity her,' said his
help-meet.
'Why so ?'
