To Resuscitate the Drowned.

As this is the season for bathing and
for fatal accidents in the water, we pre-
pare the following directions for the guild
ance of those who may need to use them
We believe they embody all that is mate
rial in restoring a drowned person, though
Of course person who has been long
submerged would require the treatment
of a careful physician after being revived
Use no harsh means, such as rolling on
barrel, rolling on the ground, hanging
by the heels, or any of the relics cfa bar
barous age.
Have the body Immediately stripped
and wiped dry, and either carried to a bed
or placed upon dry blankets, with plenty
of covering ready to retain the heat that
you may succeed in rousing.
Then commence initiating the lungs in
such manner as to make artificial bre ath-
ing this may be done by holding the nose
of the person and forcing through the
mouth into the lungs sufficient air for a
natural breath, Immediately expelling it
by an upward pressure just below the
ribs Or, the air may be thrown into the
lungs by applying the pipe of a bellows
to one nostril, while holding the other
nostril and mouth firmly closed.
This initiation of the lungs is the sheet
anchor, and must not be intermitted,
except to turn the head and body upon
the side to let out any water that may be
forced into the throat and mouth.
While this initiation is going on, let as
many warm dry hands be rubbing the
limbs, as can be employed or letthe body
be cnveloped in hot fannels, and cloths
wrung from hot water be applied; at all
events get and keep the body warm.
These two points-getting the lungs to
breathing and the body warm-are the
main chances, and, in fact, the only
chance and the treatment must not be
stopped for anything else until the person
is given over for dead
This method Of treatment is SO simple
that it can be conducted by any person of
common sense, and should not be discon-
tinued for at least five or six hours.
1t may be that the application of cleo
tricity, after the other treatment is fairly
at work, may serve to rouse vitality, but
of this we are in doubt, and believe it
should not bs too freely used North
and South.

All About Lovers.

Nothing like the old fashioned long

matrimony follows 50 closely upon the
heels of IAN Offer" that it is no wonder
that our young people have a deal of sad
thinking to do afterward. There are a
thousand little things in daily intercourse
of any duration, which are constantly
resolving themselves into tests of charaC-

to the home circle some book which he

in which he is not at all interested: watch
him then. Notice, also, if he invariably

Getting to Heaven by the way of New
Orleans.

The Philadelphia correspondent of the
New York Dispatch gives the following;
We have Methodist preacher here
who is o jolly wag. A few days since, a
young man who had long been attached
to his church, and who was about to leave
for New Orleans, came to bid his pastor
farewell.
"And so you are going to that degcner-
ate place, New Orleans, are you?
"Yos, sir but don't expect to be inau-
enced by an extraneous pressure of any
kind" responded the young man, with
considerable earnestness.
"Well, am glad to see yeu so conf
dent hope the Lord will guide you.
But do you know the temptations which
exist there?"
'No, not particularly"
"Well, do; you'll find wanton women
in the guise of Paris, tempting the very
elect; and rare wines and ardent drinks;
and you'll find gay company, and night
brawling, and gambling and dissipation,
and running after the lusts of the old man
Adam"
"Still, sir, | hope to combat these sue.
cessfully."
Il hope you will, my dear christian
brother" was the reply. 81 hope you
will. And let me give you this much for
your consolation in case you should fall
from grace. The tempter is worse than
the sin, and the greater the temptation,
the more merit there is iu resisting it.
The man who goes to Heaven by the
way Of New Orleans, is sure to have twice
as high place in eternal glory as he who
reaches Paradise through the quiet por-
tails Of Connecticut or Pennsylvania.

Whose patient sufierinss need my care

But dropping hopes havo nestled there.

When was young felt the tlda
Of aspirations undehled
But manhood's years have won the pride
Ny parents centered In theirchild.

BY all that memory shonld revere,
Though boon companions ye may be,
