Gen. Joe Lane, in his speech in tho
6enatso Of the United States, said: -

those who succeed.
Burglars and thieves are,cast into pris-

and yet they but emulate tho example,
in n more daring manner and on a small
Ter scale, Of thousands in our land who
are seeking to accumulate wealth bv
preying upon the unwary and robbing
the widow and orphan. They expect,
when their Golfers are well filled with
their ill-gotten gain, and they can look
upon their houses and lands with the
consciousness that they can indulge
their vicious desires to their hearts con.
tent, without,thc fear of coming to want,
that they can enjoy all IL

have so eagerly sought and dishonesty
obtained, may provo the source of un-

CLEANLINESS.

Compare the dirtincss Of the waterin
which you have washed when it is cold
without soap, cold with soap, hot with
soap. You will find the first has hardly
removed the dirt at all, the second Il lit
rle more, and the third n great deal more.
But hold your hand over cup of hot
water for II minute or two, and then, by
merely rubbing with the finger, you will
bring off flakes of dirt or dirty skim
After vapor bath you may peel your
whole self clean in this way. What |
mean is, that by simply washing or
sponging with water you do not really
clean your skin, Take rough towel,
dip one corner in very hot water-ifa u
little spirit be added to it, it will be moro
eil'cctual-and then rub as if you were
rubbing the towel into your skin with
your fingers The black flakes which
come off will convince you that you
were not clean before, however much
soap and water you may have used
These flakes arc what require removing
And you can really keep yourself clean
er with Il tumbler full ofhot water and
u rough towel and rubbing, than with
u whole apparatus of bath and soap and
sponge, without rubbing. 1t is quito
nonsense TO say that anybody need be
dirty. Patients have been kept as clean
by these means on Il long voyage, when
Il basin full Of water could not be aftor-
ded, and when they could not be NOV
ed out Of their berths, as If all the ap-
purtenances of home had been at hand
Washing, however with a'Iargo quanti-
ty Of water, has quite other effects than
those of mere cleanliness. The skin ab-
serbs the water, ard becomes softer and
more pcrspirablc. To wash with soap
and soft water is, therefore, desirable
from other points Of view than that Of
clcanlincss.--N0tes on Nursing, By Flor

MAY DAY.

We understand that the several
churches in our town will celebrate
the lst Of May in some appropriate
manner, and we heartily second the
idea 1t is good one. We want to
see everybody stop work on that day,
and join in recreation ofsomc harmless
kind We don't have half enough Of
such days. We toll and delve after a
few dollars, wearing out our minds and
bodies, forgctting,,wilifuIly and Grim
inally that such a cause is wrong, and
will certainly bring us SO much sooner
to our graves We want more cxcr-
cise-more fun; more romping; more
May patries, and all kinds Of parties,
except these ruinous "storm" parties,
where the young ladies and gentlemen
congregate and dance till l2 o'clock and
often later. Such parties as those, ad-
dod to everyday laziness, is running our
town young ladies. What We mean is;
day parties. Go down to Arnett's
spring, or out to,the Winchester spring,
Or the Mountain; anywhere, so that you
90. And take some wholesome food
along with you, instead ofknick knack
poisons in the shape Of candy, &c.
Take girls and boys, old and young, and
don't be too fashionable to romp and
halo. Twill expand your lungs and
strengthen your bodies, And what if
few ticks do get on you, or u few love
speeches arc made on the sly--thcsc
things are nothing, and tho last rW be
done, whether you 60 or stay at home.
What we want is for the American
people to not be so east" but take
moro timo for their health We arc
ahead of England. The average of life
in the United States is ten yers shorter
than Of the mother country, We live
too fast. Oar youth, when they can
Aot find such sport provided for them
as we have recommended, wW seek
night rovelry, and consequently they
are ruined. Yes, we arc in for cclcbra,
May Day, and, if it rains on that day,
substitute another.
