opening Of spring, to tho luscious peach Of
the fall, there is a constant succession OF the

il is one of the most unaccountable things
in nature that 50 little attention is paid,
,OmpaatiSely speaking to this branch Of
fsrming.
IL is a beautiful fact that, while the
warmth and exposure Of the sun tend to bill.
iousness, and fever. the free use Of fruits and
berries counteract their tendency. Artif.
cial acids are found to promote the separa-
tom of the bile from blood with great mild
ness and certainty. This lei to the suppo
sition that the natural acids, as contained
in fruits and berries. might be as.ayailablc,
and being more palateable, would nccessa-
rily be preferred. Experiment has verified
the theory within late period, medical
writers have suggested the Use Of fresh. ripe,
perfect raw fruits, as reliable remedy in the
iiarrh0as Of sumner.
How strongly the appetite ycarns for a
pickle, when nothing elso can be relished, is
in the experience of most Of us. Ii is in the
instinct Of nature pointing to n cure. The
want Of q natural appetite is the result of
the bile not being separated from the blood
and il not remedied, fever is inevitable, from
the slightest grades Of that of bilious, con

CHAPTER III.


The plan for search was soon arranged.
1t was known that the children had en-
tered the wood by the highway that ran
through it. In order therefore, to have
u fair prospect of success, it was ncccs-
sary to extend the line of men rs far rs
possible on each side of this road, and so
advance up the mountain. If this failed
there was no hope.
The rain had changed, as we have said,
from succession of heavy showers, to a
light but continued driulc. Torches of
knots wcreprovidcd in additionto lanterns.
At the head of one detachment, Mr.. Carr
placed himself. To the other John
Brown was assigned.
Had there been any trace by which to
follow the children, the search would
have appeared less difficult. But the
darkness would have prcludcd the eycr-
else of the ordinary wood craft, even If
the torrents of water which had fallen
had not oblitcratcd the usual signs. II
was with but faint expectations of sue
cess, consequently, that the expedition set
forth.
For more than two hours the search
went on. Steadily advancing up the
mountain side, they scrutinizcd every foot
of ground they passed, but without sue
cess. The waving of their torches in the
woods startling the birds continually, and
now and then frightened owl blindly
stumbling by, more than once, by the
noise thus occasioncd, raised false hopes
in those portions OF the expedition furthest
from the scene OF commotion. But all
such dclusivc. expectations soon faded.
Long since, the parts of woods more
familiarly known had been passed, and
now was the original forest that was being
,rayerscd. The way grew wilder; and
hope, which had been but faint at the
best, abandoned almost all. Ii was felt
that the search might be protractcd for
weeks in this vast and nearly uncxplored
region, without discovering the children
for, on such broken ground, II was i'm
possible thoroughly to examine every
nook, and the lost ones might be passed.
