A SHORT LESSON ON MAENERs.-
Young men should not go into places of
business with cigars in their mouths,
putting smoke over the shoulders and
into the faces of people, not knowing
whether It is offensive or not. No well
bred person will go into strange place,
unless it is dedicated to or used for such
purposes, carrying a habit with HIM
that NAV be offensive to the occupants.

atfiictiOn, and are most common to persons Of
delicate constitutions and sensitive minds
Low spirits, melancholy, frightful dreams, and
fearful anticipations of evil from the slightest
causes, generally accompany nervous disor-
ders. The Forest Wine and Pills are an ener-
getic remedy in these complaints

Dr.. G. W. HALsET: Dear Sir-Your Forest
Wine and Pills have cured my wife of dread
full Nervous disorder, with which she had been
affected for many years. Her body was almost
wasted away. She was frequently disturbed
in her sleep by frightful dreams, awakening
quite exhausted and covered with perspiration,
and at times laboring under the delusion that
something dreadful was about to happen to
her. By the use of four bottles of the Wine,
and box Of the Pills. she is now in perfect
health. She has regained her flesh and color,
and enjoys society as well as ever.

THE MAGNET AND COLD.

History informs us that MANY of tho
countries in Europe, which now possess
very mild winters at one time experienced
severe cold during this season of the wear.
Ihe Ilber at Rome was often frozen over.
and snow at one time lay for forty days
IN that city. The Euxine Sea was frozen
over every winter during the time of Ovid,
anu the rivers Rhine and Rhone used to
be frozen so deep that the ice sustained
loaded wagons The waters of the Tiber.
Rhine and Rhone now flow freely every
winter, ice is unknown at Rome, and the
waves of the Euxiue dash their wintry
foam unchrystalized upon the rocks.
Some have ascribed these climate chan
ges to agriculture-the cutting down the
dense forests-the exposure of the upturn-
ed soil to the summer sun, and the drain
ing of the great marshes. We do not be-
lieve that such great changes could have
been produced on the climate of any coun-
try by agriculture, and we are not certain
that any such theory can account for tie
contrary change of climate-from warm
to cold winters-which history tells US
has taken place in other countries than
those named. Greenland receives its name
from the emerald herbage which clothed
Its valleys and mountains and it's east
coast, which is now inaccessible on account
of the perpetual ice heaped upon its
shores, was, in the eleventh century, the
seat of flourishing Scandinavian colonies,
all trace of which is now lost. Cold Lab
rador was named Vinland by the North
men who visited it in the year 1000, and
who were charmed with it's then mild cli-
mate. The cause of these changes is an
important inquiry.
A pamphlet, by John Murray, civil en-
gineer, has recently been published in
London. in which he endeavors to account
for these changes of climate by the change
able position of the magnetic poles The
magnetic variation or declination of the
time it amounts in London to about twen-
ythree degrees west of north, while, in
1863, the line of variation passed through
England, and then moved gradually west,
until 1916 In that year E great removal
of ice took place on the coast of Green
land hence it is inferred that the cold
meridian, which now passes through Ca
nada and Siberia, may at one time have
passed through Italy aud that if the
magnetic meridian returns, as it is now
doing, to its old lines in Europe, Rome
may once more see her Tiber frozen over,
and the merry Rhinelander drive his team
on the ice of the classic river.
Whether the changes of climate men
toned have been caused by the change of
the magnetic meridian or not, we have too
few facts before us, at present, to decide
conclusively but the idea, once spread
abroad, will soon lead to such investiga-
tions as will, no doubt, remove every OBJ
scurity, and settle the question.-.Scie1-

profession but there was more than poet
ry--the highest noblest. piety-in his life.

some score or two of ragged urchins,
whom he was converting into useful men,
bers of the State. Horror to the memory
of the patriot cobbler, beneath whose
lcathern apron there beat the kindest
heart--there glowed bosom fred with
the noblest ambition-and who, without
fee from scholar, or reward from man,
while he toiled for his hard earned bread
with the sweat of his brow, educated not
less than five hundred outcasts, before
they laid him in his lowly grave Honor,
we say again. to the memory of this illus
trious patriot Nor is there in all tho
world any sight we would have travelled
so far or so soon to see, as that self same
man, when he followed some ragged boy
along the quays of Portsmouth, keeping
his kind, keen eye upon him, and tempt
ing the young savage to his school with
the bribe of smoking potato Princes
and peers, judges and divines, might have
stood uncovered in his presence and now
marble monuments might be removed from
the venerable walls of Westminster-po-
cts, warriors. statesmen nigh give place
to make room for him.-Rey. T. Guthrie.
