Amusement as a Part of Education.

That which is recreation and diversion
to the man is nothing else than an accu-
mutation of fatigue for child. In order
to aid his physical formation, greater
reliance should be placed upon amuse-
ments Of his own choice than upon exer-
cises, notions, and even plays, prescribed
to him after a preconcerted plan. AT an
early age, one duty cannot afford relaxa-
ton after another duty. On the contrary,
when an amusement is imposed upon
child, it becomes new fatigue for him.
Recreation and play are, no doubt, most
necessary for him, but only on condition
that they must be Of his own accord, free
from that contention of mind which is
caused by doing thing by compulsion,
or for the sake Of obedience. Amusement
without perfect freedom of choice, is void
of pleasure, and it is not only pleasure
which gives the charm to amusement, but
which by a natural reaction of the moral
and physical elements, renders it salutary.
Have we not seen, thousands of times,
how warmly children contend among
themselves in their plays? 81 won't play
any more" says the one who thinks him.
self aggrieved. He thinks that he has a
right to say so. The same child would
not think Of saying, ~ won't study any
more" Compel him to play "hide and
seek" and at the end of quarter of an
hour he is tired of it; but had he chosen
this play, he would not be tired Of it at
the end Of four hours.
Parents who pretend to make the phys
ical alternate continually with the moral
and Intellectual education, by arranging,
after their own idea, the exercises Of the
one and Of the other and who, holding
the child by the hand, compel him to 20
round prescribed circle, condemn him
also to slavery as tedious as it is useless.
Let US always remember, that in order to
obtain good physical education, amuse-
ments and plays are of the greatest i'm
portance; and secondly, that thess cannot
be of any profit, but on two conditions,
the one being as essential as the other,
viz: pure air and perfect freedom.

inclined to be Quarrelsome.

We heard that prince Of story tellers,
Tom Galloway, get of the following,
amid bursts Of laughter, the other night
Squaring himself and stretching out his
legs, he began:
There was once a little, slim.built
fellow, rich as Jew, and independent as
the devil, riding along highway in the
State of Georgia, when he overlook man
driving drove Of hogs by the help of a
big, raw-boned, six-foot-two specimen Of
humanity, Stopping the lastnamed indi-
vidual, he accosted him:
~ say, are these your hogsP"
"No, sir Pm to work by the month.
what pay mightyoube getting, ,friendY
"Ten dollars a month, and whisky
thrown in" was the reply.
"Well, look here, I'm weak, little,
inofFensive man, and people are apt to
impose on me- dye see. Now, I'll give
YOU twenty-five dollars month to ride
along with me and protect me" said MIR.
Gardner. "But,' he added, as thought
struck him, show might yoube on fght?
"Never been licked in my life, " rejoined
the six-footer.
"Just the man want Is't bargain?"
queried Gardner.
Six-footer ruminated. "Twenty-five
dollars-double wages-nothing to do but
to ride around and smash fellows mug
occasionally, when he's sassy.
Six-footer accepted.
They rode along, till just at night they
reacheda village inn. Dismounting at the
door, they went in. Gardner Immediately
singled out the biggest man in the room,
and picked fuss with him. After con-
siderable promiscuous jawing, Gardner
turned to his fighting friend, and init.
mated that the licking Of that man had
become a sad necessity. Six-foOter peeled,
went in, and came out first best.
The next night, at another hotel, the
same scene was re-enacted-Gardner get
ting into row with the biggest man in
the place, and six-footer doing the fighting.
At last, on tho third day, they came to
ferry kept by huge, double-fsted man,
who had never been licked in his life.
While crossing the river, Gardner, as
usual, began to find fault and "blow."
The ferryman naturally got mad, threw
things around kind O loose, and told him
his opinion of their kind. Gardner then
turned to his friend "from the shoulder"
and gently broke the intelligence to him,
"that he was sorry, but that it was abso,
lutely necessary to thrash that ferryman."
Six-footer nodded his head, but said
nothing. 1t was plainly to be seen that
he did not relish the job by the way he
shrugged his shoulders, but there was no
help for it. So whom they reached the
shore, both stripped, and at it they went
Up and down the bank, over the sand into
the water, they fought, scratched, gouged,
bit, and rolled, till, at the end Of an hour,
the ferryman caved. Six-footerwas trium-
phant, but it was tough work. Going up
to his employer, he scratched his head for
O moment, and then broke forth:
"Look here, Mr. Gardner, your salary
sets mighty well, but-Pm-of-the-
opinion-that you are inclined to be
quarrelsome. Here I've only been with
you three days, and Two licked the three
biggest men in the country! / think the
firm had better dissolve, for you see, Mr..
Gardner, I'm afraid you're inclined to be
quarrelsome, and reckon I'll draw!'

"a ANECDOTE OF SIR Isaac NHwToN.-Dr.
E|Esuckly, one day by appointment, paid a
visit to Sir Isaac Newton. The servant
said he was in his study. No one was
permitted to disturb him there, but as it
was near dinner time, the visitor sat down
to wait for him. In a short time a boiled
chicken under cover was brought in for
dinner. .., -'.I
An hour passed on, and Sir Isaac did
not appear. The doctor then ate the fowl
and covering up the empty dish desired
the servant to get another ready for his

man came down. He apologMed for his
delay, and added, "give me but leave to
take my short dinner, and shall be at

AEGR'S
Ague Cure,

FOR THE SPEEDY CURE OF
intermittent Fever, or Fever and Ague, Re-
mittent Fever, Chill Fever, Dumb Ague,
Periodical Headache, or Bilious Head
ache, and Bilious Fevers, indeed for the
whole class of diseases originating in liz
iary arrangement, caused by the Malaria
of miasmatic countries.
No one remedy is louder called for by the ne
c~essities of the American people than q sure and
safe cure for Fever and Ague. Such we are
now enabled to Offer with a perfect certainty
that it will eradicate the disease, and with as
surance, founded on proof, that no harm can
arise from its use in any quantity.
That which protects from or prevents this dis
order must be of immense service in the commu-
mites where it prevails. Prevention is better than
cure, for the patient escapes the risk which he
must run in violent attacks of this balefu, dis
temper. This "CURE" expels the miasmatic
poison of FEVER AND AGUE from the system and
prevents the development of the disease, # taken
on the first approach of its premonitory symptoms.
It is not only the best remedy ever yet discovered
for this class of complaints, but also the cheapest.
The large quantity we supply for q dollar brings it
within the reach of every body and in bilious
districts, where FEVER AND AGUE prevails, every
body should have it and use it freely both for cure
and protection. It is hoped this price will place it
within the reach of all = the poor as well as the
rich. A great superiority of this remedy over any
other ever discovered for the speedy and certain
cure of Internittents is, that it contains no Qainine
or mineral, consequently it produces no quinism or
other injurious effects whatever upon the c%onstitu-s
ton. Those cured by it are left as healthy as if
they had never had the disease.
Fever and Ague is not alone the consequence of
the miasmatic poison. A great variety of disorders
arise from its irritation, among which are Neural
gia, Rheumatism, Gout, Headache, Blindness,
Toothache, Earache, Catarrh, Asthma, Palpitation,
Painful Affection of the Spleen, Mysteries, Pain in
the Bowels, Collie, Paralysis, and Derangement of
the Stomach, all of which, when originating in
this cause, put on the intermittent type, or become
periodical. This "CURE" expels the poison from
the blood, and consequently cures them all alike.
1t is an invaluable protection to immigrants and
persons travelling or temporarily residing in the
while exposed to the infection, that will be excre-
ted from the system, and cannot accumulate in
sufficient quantity to ripen into disease. Hence it
is even more valuable for protection than cure, and
few will ever suffer from Intermittents, if they
avail themselves of the protection this remedy

So wide is the field of its usefulness and so numerOss
are the cases of its cures, that almost every section of
country abounds in persons publicly known, who have
been restored from alarming and even desperate dis
eases of the lungs by its use. When once tried, its
superiority over every other medicine of its kind is too
apparent to escape observation, and where its virtues
are known, the public no longer hesitate what antidote
to employ for the distressing and dangerous affections
of the pulmonary organs that are incident to our
climate. While many inferior remedies thrust upon
the community have failed and been discarded, this has
gained friends by every trial, conferred benefits on the
afflicted they can never forget, and produced cures too
numerous and too remarkable to be forgotten.
