THE CAUSE OF SUDDEN DEArH-Dr. Hall,
in his Journal of Health, says that very few
Of the sudden deaths which are said to
arise from a disease OF the heart, 40 really
arise form that cause To ascertain the
real origin of sud len death, the doctor
says the experiment has been tried in
Europe, aud reported to a scientific con-
gress held at Strasburg. Sixty eight cases
OF sudden death were made the subjects
Of thorough postmortem examination.
In these cases, ouly two were found who
died frem disease of the heart Nine. out
Of sixty nine, died from apoplexy, while
there were forty-siX cases Of congestion OF
the lungs; that is, the lungs were so full
of blood they could not work, there not
being room enough for a sufficient quantity
OF air to enter to support lifs. The doctor
goes on to enumerate the causes that may
produce congestion OF the lungs. They
are-oold feet, tight clothes, costiveness,
sitting still until chilled through after
being warmed by labor or . rapid walk !;
going too suddenly from a close heated
room into the cold air, especially after
speaking; and Sudden deprexs,og news
operating on the blood. These causes of
sudden death being known, An avoidance
of them may serve to lengthen out yalu-
able lives, which would otherwise be lost
under the verdict of heart COMPLAINT.
That disease Is supposed to be incurable,
and hence men may not take the pains
they would to avoid sudden death if they
knew it lay in their | over.

In the March number of the Atlantic
Monthly the Country Parson' has
charming little essay on The Sorrows
of Childhood, in the course of which he
makes these remarks:
An extremely wicked way of furnishing
children is by shutting them up IN dark
place. Darkness is naturally fearful to
human beings, and the:stupid COST stories
OF many nurses make it especially fearful
to child. 1t is stupid and a wicked
thing to send child on an errand in a
dark night do not remember passing
through a greater trial in my youth than
once walking three miles alone Git was
not going on an errand)i in the dark, along
a road thickly shaded with trees. was a
little fellow; but I got over the distance
in half an hour. Part ofthe way was along
a wall of churchyard-one of those
CHASTITY, weedy, neglected, accursed looking
spots were stupidity has done what it can
to add circumstances of disgust and horror
to the Christian long sleep Nobody ever
supposed that this walk was a trial to a
boy of twelve years old, so little are the
thoughts of children understood. And
children are reticent; l am telling now
about that dismal walk for the very first
time, and in the illness of childhood,
children sometimes get very close aud real
views of death. remember, when / was
nine years old, how every evening when |
lay down to sleep, used for about year
to picture myself lying dead, till felt as
though the coffin was closing around me.
/ used to read at that PERIOD with curious
feeling of fascinotion, Blairs poem, The
Grave But | never dreamed of telling
anybody about these thoughts. l believe
that thoughtful children keep most of
their thoughts to themselves, and in res
pect of the things of which they think
most are:ofprofoundly alone as the Ancient
Mariner in the Pacific. have heard of a
parent, an important member of very
strict sect of the Pharisees, whose child,
when dying, begged to be buried not in a
certain foul old hideous church-yard, but
in certain cheerful cemetry. This
request the poor little creature made with
all the energy of terror and despair. But
the straight Pharisee refused the dying
request, and pointed out with polemical
bitterness to the child that he must be
very wicked indeed to care at such time
where he was to be buried, or what might
he done with his body after death. How
!; should enjoy the spectacle OF that nm
natural. hairless, stupid wretch tarred and
feathered! The dying child was caring
for a thing about which Shakespeare cared !;
and it was not in mere human weakness,
but by faith, that Joseph, when he was
a-dying, gave commandment concerning
his bones.

WEEDS AND PorAro Ror-O. W. True, of
Franklin county, Me, says that during the
prevalence of the potato rot in Maine, he
has many times noticed that in fields af.
fected, the disease was always more des-
truetive where grass and weeds were
abundant, than in the clean ground of the
same field; sometimes the former were
left undug, while the clean plots yielded
$50 to $50 bushels per acre. Early deep
planting, with clean culture, always does
best
