CONFINEMENT.

1t happened once in hot summers day,
L was standing near well, when a little
bird flew down, seeking water. There
was, indeed, large trough near the well,
but it was empty, and grieyed for mo-
ment to think that the little creature must
go away thirsty but it settled upon the
edge of the trough. bent its head down
wards, then raised it again, spread its
wing, and scared away singing. Its thirst
was appeased. Walked up to the trough,
and there in the stone-work | saw a little
hole about the size of wren's egg. The
water held there had been source of re.
vival and refreshment it had found
enough for the present and desiredno more.
This is coutentment.
Again, l stood by a lovely, sweet-smell-
ing flower, and there came bee hum
ming and sucking-and it chose the. flow
er for its field of sweets. But the flower
had no honey. This l knew, for it had
no nectary. What then thought |, will
the bee do? 1t came bizzing out of the
cap to take further fight ; but as it came
up it spied the stamens full of golden fari-
ua, good for making wax, and it rolled its
legs against them till they were Likely elbow
hoes, as the bee keepers say!; and then
thus heavily laden, flew away home
Then | said, Thou contest seeking ho-
ney, and finding none, hast been satisfied
with wax, and hast stored it for thy house
that thy labor might not be in vain. Thou
likewise shall be to me lesson of content
ment."
The night is far spent-the dark night
of trouble-that sometimes threatened to
close around us but the day is at hand,
and even in the night there were stars,
and l have looked upon them and been
comforted for as one set, l could always
see another Use, and each was lamp
showing me somewhat of the depth of the
riches both of the wisdom and knowledge
of God.

Saleratus.

Sa!eratus is said to be injurious to the
human system, and that it destroys thou
sands of children and some adults every
year. In New Brunswick, contiguous to
Maine, the physicians are won't to say
that half the children are killed by the
use of salaratus. The evil is fast spread
ing throughout the Union. Families of
moderate size already use from ten to
twenty-five pounds yearly.
Remarks of tie NeW England Farmer
Storekeepers who have been engaged in
the business for many years, have told US
that formerly they used to purchase three
or four small kegs of saleratus for years
supply in country village, but that now
they purchase more than as many large
cases, weighing six or eight hundred
pounds each. Large quantities are used
in making bread, the most common food,
and of which all partake. Milk should
take its place there. Many persons are
in the habit of adding little saleratus to
most kinds of pastry. We are inclined to
believe the remarks quoted above have
much truth in them. We do not know how
far the power of saleratus may be neutral
lied by mixture of other substances used
as food, but it may be known by the chem
ist, and should be explained to the peo-
pie.
What is saleratus Wood is burnt to
ashes. Ashes are lixiviated-lye is the
result. Lye is evaporated by boiling
black salts are the residum. The salts
undergo a qualification by fire, and the
potash of commerce is obtained. By an
other process, we change the potash into
pearlash. Now put this into sacks, and
place them over a distillery washtub,
where the fermentation evolves carbonic
acid gas, and the pearlash absorbs and
renders it solid. the product being heavi-
er, dryer and winter shan the pearIash.-
1t is now saleratus. How much salts of
lye and carbonic acid can human sto-
mach bear and remain healthy, in ques
ton for the saleratus eaters.
