The Hygiene of Sorrow.
In a receot issue of a New York
newspaper an article by Dr. Louiso
Fiske Bryaoo formulates some distinctly
modern views upon the effects of grief.
The attempt to act as if nothing had
happened after the advent of somo
misfortune, and to couduct life exactly
as before, is one of the greatest possible
mistakes. It is an outrage on nature,
which she resents sharply in tho end.
Pay day comes sooner or later; and
the overthrow caused by blinding
catastrophe arrives, even if dcfcried.
The nervous system requires complete
rost after blows caused by sorrow.
Recent medical obsorvatious (Fere,
Bassi, Scbulo, Zenker) show that tho
physical results of depressing emotions
arc similar to those caused by
bodily aocideuts, futigue, chill, partial
starvation, and loss of blood. Birds.
moles, and dogs which apparently died
in consequence of capture, and fruui
conditions that correspond in hutnau
beings to acute nostalgia and "brokeu
heart," were examined after death as
to the condition of their interunl organs. ,
Xutiitiou of tho tissues bad been
interfered with, and the substanco proper
of various vital organs had undergone
the same kind of degeneration as that ,
brought about by phosphorus or the
germs of infectious disease. Tho poison
of grief is more than a name. To urge '
work, study, travel, the vain search
for amusement, is both useless and
dangerous. For a timo tbe whole
organism is overthrown, and temporary
seclusion is imperative for proper
readjustment. After some bereavement
the custom of wearing mourning has a
distinct moral value. Hut its period of
use must be brief: a few weeks, months,
perhaps a year; otherwise deusc black
draperies become a burdeu, an aesthetic
blunder, and a source of depression
in themselves For a time they
have a place, securing consideration
from strangers and silouce from more
acquaintance, since sorrow is one of tbe
touches of nature that makes tho whole
world kin.
Whore there is nearness of relationship
to nature, rauiblei in the open air, days
alone with the sea, alone in the forest,
console as nothing else can. t^uict,
silent drives, or even short journeys by
rail, will reveal a new heaven aud a new
earth to one fatigued aud worn by
sorrow. Music, when it can be borne,
his a soothing power beyoud words,
hooks, too, have their placthose gentle
companions without speech whose calm
society helps annihilate time and space,
and who always receive us with the same
kindness. The familiar faces of
newspapers aud journals bring a stray
comfort that eveu the toudorcst heart is
powerless to bestow. The caro and
companionship of children is another
soureo of strength. Children arc uot
watching to see how tho afflicted arc
bearing up uudor sorrow, nor arc they
where"aiting for some expression of sentiment
named the overthrow of self-control. A
A ild is always tho best coiufdrter,
WFj^jering no word of eympalhy^/yet
, -jM- lhTkif og interest in life because its r
OlJCl wauv.'vl' uvuuur C3D
it b? oheercd up, It must bo accepted,
tad allowed to wear itself away.
Readjustment conies slowly. Sorrow,
grief, and all great misfortuues should
be regarded as coadi-tious similar to
acute infectious diseases, which tLey
resemble iu result j and later, as
/ convalescence from bucu diseases.
Seclusion, rest, sleep, appropriate food,
lresh air, suushinc, interests that tax
neither mind nor body, these arc
requirements in this class of illuess,
The care of the condition following
depressing emotion culls for the same
treatment in greater or less degree.?

Inventions Needed at the Month.
UT Jl'DOK WALTER CLARK.
Tbo common Geld poa, whether the
cow pea, clay pea, the Unknown poa, or
uther variety, is the clover of tbo South.
It will grow when clover will not. It
will furnish more forage than clover
aod wilL improve the land more rapidly.
It can be sown when desired, in
a crop of corn, nud thus improve land
'vithout losing a year's use of it (or
cultivation. At the North tho pen is
coming into wider use in lieu of clover
for forago aod as a laud improver. This
will furnish a growirg market for cur
peas us they will not mature seed there.
Tbo great drawback in the raising of
peas for soed is the great cost of harvesting
and boatiug them out. At lint
MnrtK wKnrn Knono orn ! ? r?.nl n r> ieori
tbey have satisfactory bom harvesters
atid threshers. Southern iuveutivo
genius has always bceu e<jual to the demauds
upou it. If some one will invent
a satisfactory pea harvester aud a
good pea thresher, he will not only make
a fortune for hixsclf, but he will bring
back fertility to tho South. It will increase
ten fold the growing of field peas,
besides making a new crop lor us to
Bbip to the North. These inventions
will stimulate the growing of field pea->,
just as the invention of the cotton gin
stimulated tho increased crop of cottou.
Then, too, a good peanut thresher is
badly needed for tho peanut crop.
Picking oil by band is slow and expensive,
and none of the peanut tbrcsbors
inveuted so far are as sisfactory. They
break and shatter too inauy peanuts.
The price ot cottou does not bid fair
to go up. The uew area added every
year in Texas will continually overbalance
the world's increased consumption.
Then there is the steadily increasing
production in India, Egypt aud Brazil.
In Mexico the cottou plaut lives eight
years aud produces two crops a year.
Production there has heretofore been
small, owing to lack of railroads and
reliable labor. This is beiug remedied.
To compete with a country which can
produce sixteen crops of cottou from
one planting is using a muzzle loader
against a sixteen shooter. Besides all
countries south of us, irrespective of
fertility, and no matter how rich we
shall make our lauds, have tbe advantage
of us iu the length of the season.
We cau not overcome tbe disadvantage
of our short scasous lor cottou. In
North Carolina it is doomed, sooner or
later, to disappear as a market crop.
We can substitute many things. Grass
is very proGtable if the laud is made
rich cuough, bee>use it takes so little
labor. Two weeks out of lite li113*-two
?one week in .June to mow and ono
week later to bale up, is enough?while
eottun or tobacco require the year round.
The Geld pea offers the advantage ot
abundant forage, a steady improver of
our lands, a good fattcucr for cattle and
hogs, aud a crop to ship North. The
drawback in the groat expense of
harvesting ami preparing J or market
should be overcome. The Soulii^v2B?<
wnt/?"J. .n"'h .wealth and honor tftcr and
thresher that will enable us to incroase
ten fold this crop.

Tito Last of the BuffaloesHunters
know that buffaloes will
never unless forced cross the iron of a
railroad tract, aud this fact figured
largely in the unfortunate work of
extermination which these animals have
suffered since the Western plains have
been spanned by railroads.

herds of the Northwest was the
completion of the Northern Pacific tract
west from liisuiarck to the llocky
Mountains. The road practically
divided the herds, aud those to the south
were soon swallowed up in the general
slaughter waged by Indians, pot, hide
and tongue hunters, foreign sportsmen
and others who wcic out to kill anything
they saw on sight.
This was during the winter of
1882-8.5. The buffaloes to the north
were in many scattered hands, hut there
was one great herd of not less than
75,000 head which had found a
temporaiy refuge in the triangle formed
by the Musselshell, Missouri aud
Yellowstone rivers in Montana, and as
fhoi) hut not Hnnn
cither red or white hunters. 15ut they
were as surely d- omed as though already
killed, for the railroad iron cut them oil
from the southern range,and the Indians
of the Canadian northwest, as well as
those of our country, barred their retreat
into the far North, an 1 so they wore
hemmed in between the two, with no
possibility of escape in either direction.
This last h^rd wss completely wiped out
of existence in less than four months,
and before the close of the year there
were uu' u tew sulfites ana pairs 1011 as
fugitives in that vast country whore but
a year or two before they could have
hecn c united almost by the hundreds ol

LOVE'S WAY.
They My it's an old, old story.
That the soul of nature came
Of old, in an hour of glory.
As a loving heart of flame;
With tendereat human feeling.
For the proud, the hardened slave
Of lust, for the outcast, reeling
Through shame to a nameless grave
And that still this old, old story
Is only a mystic dream;
That creation's brightest glory
Is science and law and steam
But love has its science, older
Than the oldest worlds of time;
And its laws and forces, bolder
Than the heroes called divine.
It loves, and dies, and comes again;
Rejected, it flies away;
But conquers life through joy or pain.
Is god of each night and day.
?W. H. Thornc In Philadelphia Timco.

These scientific paradoxes are grouped
together in Blackwood's Magazine: The
water which drowns us, a fluent stream,
can be walked upon as ice. Tim bullet
, which, when fired from a musket, carries
death, will be harmless if ground to dust
before being fired. The crystallized part
of the oil of roses, so graceful in its fragrance,
a Bolid at ordinary temperatures,
though really volatile, is a compound
substance containing exactly tho same
elements, and in exactly the same proportions,
as the gas with which we light
our streets. The tea which wo daily
drink with benefit and, pleasure produces
palpitations, nervous tremblings, and
even paralysis, if taken in excess; yet the
peculiar organic agent called theine, to
which tea owes its qualities, may l>e
taken by itself (as theine, not as tea)
without any appreciable effect.
Tho water which will allay our burning
thirst augments it when congealed
into snow, so that it is stated by explorers
of the Arctic regions that the natives
"prefer enduring tho utmost extremity
of thirst rather than attempt to
remove it by eating snow." Vet if the
snow Ik; melted it becomes drinkable
water. Nevertheless, although if melted
before entering the mouth it assuages
thirst like other water, when melted in
tho mouth it has the opposito effect. To
render this paradox more striking, we
have only to rctncml>cr that ice, which
| melts more slowly in the mouth, is very
I efficient in allaying thirst.

the town, is picturesque in the extreme.
On all sides the exasperating grating of
well pulleys produces a tuolif too Wagnerian
for uneducated ears, in a pastoral
* symphony played by a full orchestra of
buzzing insects, grasshoppers whirring
1 shrilly, and the sun scorched palms
J crackling their dry branches. In each
f garden rise the two arms of a well, bci
tween which an enormous leathern hag
, mounts and descends on a rude wooden
pulley, the chief instrument of the above
> mentioned music, discharging at each
1 trip a flood of water.

Another hydriatic method, which acts
by removing the cause of disturbance, is
the 6ippingof hot water an hour before

Baruch, in Times and Itegistei. The hot
water craze, which now lias taken a firm
hold upon the lay public, is but the legitimate
outcome of a valuable therapeutic
application of water, whoso simplicity
[ commends it at once to the judgment of

We feared St. Vitus dance, and tried
the best physicians, with no benefit.
She has taken three tattles of Dr.

Vitus dance are entirely
gone, she attends school regularly,
and has recovered complete use of
her arm. her appetite is splendid."
