TO THE GIRLS

RosELLA is right in saying the boys
should put on a clean shirt when they go
10 bed. No person, man, woman or child,
should wear an article at night which he
or she has worn during the day. Take
off every article, girls, and throw them
over a chair TO air during the night, for
they are filled with insensible perspi-
ration ; then wash the whole system, and
put on a fresh cool night dress, and see
how sweetly you will sleep.
Much of the skin diseases, bowel conn.,
plants, colds and fevers of childhood, are
doubtless caused by a neglect of the
skin.
We have a few words to say, too, about
your personal appearance. You know it
is every ones duty to look as well as pos
sible, and nothing makes one look so well
as neatness. Keep clean, and brush your
hair as often as it needs If, and what is far
more apt to be forgotten, keep your teeth
clean. Nothing dis6gures ones face as
much as yellow dirty teeth, nothing is
more offensive than the breath that comes
past such teeth, and nothing else causes
teeth to decay so rapidly as neglect to
scour them. You need not use any pow
der, unless they are already very bad,
but buy a good tooth brush, and scour
them with clear water and a little fine
soap, every night, or better still, night and
morning. If anything more is needed
than cold water, pound charcoal perfectly
fine, and use that with a bit of clolh.-
Keep your nails clean, loo, attend to them
every day. One of the surest ways to
detect i well bred person at once, is tc
look at the teeth and nails.-O Ohio Cult

OHIO STATE FAIR-CIRCULAR TO
EXHIBITORS.

In order TO promote the convenience of
Exhibitors, and facilitate the business of
the Entry office at the time of Fair, the
ertry books will be opened at the rooms
of the Board, on the 18th of August, one
month before the Fair.
Stalls and pens will be numbered, in
the order of their eligibility, and those
who propose to exhibit, are hereby invited
to send by mail or otherwise, a list of the
animals proposed 10 be exhibited by them,
(giving age of same,) with the entry fee
of 81.
The entries will be made in the CON-
miItee books, in the order in which they
are received, and stalls and pens marked
accordingly /; the fact OF such entry hav-
ing been made, will be kept strictly pri.
vate, until the time Of the Fair. Upon
the receipt of the list and entry fee, an
exhibitors ticket, good during the Fair,
with name of exhibitor written therein,
will be returned by mail. The ENTRY
CARDS will be made out and put up in
packages with name theron, and held in
readiness TO deliver Ia the proper person
Immediately upon his arrival, thereby
avoiding all confusion and delay.
Before sending entries, examine the pre-
MUM list carefully, that each animal may
be entered in the right class. Errors and
confusion very often arise from entries
being made in the class of " thorough
bred Horses" from the absence of u fall
pedigree, when brought into the ring. If
horsemen will duly consider the ''Proba-
ble'' meaning of thorough bred, they need
not err in this particular.
Stock should b. on the ground by Sat-
urday, or Monday at latest. If delayed
after IL o'clock of Tuesday, the 18th, it
cannot compete for premiums.-O. Cuu.

COULDN'T CURE HIM.

A good story is told in an eastern pa
per, of the treatment of a drunken hus-
band by his amiable spouse. After try
ing various expedients, all to cure
drunkness she at last bethought herself of
another plan of making a reformed drunk
ard of her lord.
She engaged Waterman, for a stipula.

wstch-house, while yet in a state of in
sensibility, and 10 brighten him a little
when he recovered. In consequence of
this arrangement, Philander walked up
about eleven o'clock at night, and found
himself lying on a pine bench in a strange
and dim apartment. Raising himself
up on his elbow, he looked round till his
eyes rested on a man seated by a stove
smoking a cigar.
"Where am | 2" said Philander.

smoker.

"Going to be cut up"
"How comes that ?" +.
"Why, you died yesterday, while you
were drunk, and we bought your body 10

"Nc matter-we bought your carcass
from your wife, who had a right to sell it,
for it's all the good she could ever make
of you. | fyou're not dead, that's not the
fault Of the doctors, and they'll cut you

This last speech satisfied the watch.

and as his reward was contingent on his
successful treatment of the patient, he
was not a little chagrined at the result /;
so with no gentle handling, he tumbled
