A Coop FAMILY MEDICINE THAT ISN'T
HARD TO TAKE.-Everybody eats walnuls,
everybody knows how to make pickle Of
walnuts; few, however, know the medicinal
virtue of waInuls. Now, Inc fact is, walnu's,
when prepared secundcm arlem, are an ex-
cellent medicine and alternative, and this is
the way TO prepare them Get the green
walnuts fit for picking; put them in stone
jar filled up with mois, sugar, at the rate OF
halt pound 10 a score of walnuts; place
the Jar in saucepan Of boiling water for
about three hours, taking care the water
does not get in, and keep il simmering dur
ing the operation. The sugar when dis
solved, should cover the walnuts; if it does
not, add more, cover i, close, and in six
months it will be fit for use; the older it
gets the better i, is. One walnut is dose
for child of six years of age, as a purga-
tive; and it has this great advantage over
drugs, that whilst i, is an excellent medicine
il is, at the same time, very pleasant to the
palate, and will be esteemed by the young
folks as a grea, treat. Who can say as much
of salts, jalap, and other DOCTORS stuff? and
in large family it will abridge the doctors
bill at least fifty dollars year.

ARCTIC CoMFoRTs.-Icicles hung round
the Geek, peaches became a mass of calce
dony, butter was cut with chsel, beef with
pickaxe and crowbar. Walking out, faces
are glazed with ice. Put out your tongue,
and il is frozen to your chin. Walking on,
you get into fine glow, often INTO per-
spiraion, but if the wind rises, then you
have sensation Of prlcking pins. Extremes
meet. Extremes Of heat and cold are alike.
In our new life cold gave positive charac

describe Wepro,ected ourselves from metals
with fur and buckskin. The crawl, the chill,
uhich is, with Us at home, the indication
of varying temperature, was there unknown.
In fact, it was only by the direct attack Of
cold that we were aware of it, and officers
and men agreed that we had suffered more
at home from cold. With such an inveter-
ale enemy, however, we could not hope to
escape scars, but we ell returned alive. On
one occasion, poor fellow, recovering from
inflammation of the lungs, being asked how
his frost-bilen ear came on, produced it in
a piece of paper, and said "Doctor, didn't
want to trouble you, but it dropped off last

THE HUMAN FAMILY-From curious
statistical digest just published in Europe, it
appears that the human family numbers
7CO,O0O,OO0, and its annual loss by death
is 100000, which produces 624, 400 tons
Of animal matter, which in turn, generates
by decomposition 100000 cubic feet of
gases which are cleared away from the at
mosphere by vegetable matter decomposing
and assimilating them for their own uses
This is an interesting sub bject for philosophy.

how we allow our views to centre in our
selves; we are none of US alone in the world;
II is not for ourselves alone that we work

created new order Of men in this country,
