DIPTHERIA.-We have received a reci
pc for the cure Of diptheria, from a ply
sician, who says that of one thousand
cases, in which it has been used, not
single patient has been lost. The treat
ment consists in thoroughly swabbing the
the back Of the mouth and throat with
n wash made thus: Table salt, two
drachms; black pepper golden seal, nj
trate of potash, alum, one drachm each.
Mix and pulvcrize, put into teacup,
which half fill with boiling water, stir
we'll, and then fill up with good vinegar.
Use every hnlf-hour, one; two, and four
hours, as recovery progresses. The pa
tent may swallow little each time Ap-
ply one chnce each of spirits of turpen-
tine, sweet oil, and aqua ammone, mixed,
TO the whole of the throat and to tho
breast bone every four hours, keeping

A Cow FoRrY-oNE DAYS IN A STRAW
SrAcK.-About six weeks ago COW be-
longing TO Mr.. Samuel Copeland, of
Blanshard, got accidentally buried up,
while threshing was being done, and since
then, not having been seen, was supposed
to have strayed away. On Monday week,
however, the poor beast was discovered,
after being forty-one days under the straw,
without water. AS may be imagined,
she was rather thirsty when relieved, and
quite ravenous for salt, otherwise she did
not look much the worse for her long con
finement. We hardly thought the beast
would have lived so long without water,
but possibly the dampncss of rain run
ming through the straw may in some sort
have supplied her.-,St. Mary Standard.
LOOK on THE BRIGHT SIDE.-lt is bet
tor to tread the path of life checrfulIy
skipping lightly over all the obstacles in
the way, rather than sit down and lament
your hard fate. The cheerful mans life
will spin out longer than that of mau
who is continually sad and desponding.
If distress comes upon us, detection and
despair will not afford relief The best
thing to do when evil comes upon us, is
not lamentation, but action; not to sit
and suffer, but to rise and make vigor-
Gus effort to seek a remedy.

A BRAVES MIoHIoAk MAN.-The cor
respondent of the Cincinnati CONNER
cial, writing from Chattanooga, says:
While riding up Mission Hill, on the
memorable 25th, turning my horse to the
right or left to avoid treading upon the
wounded, I had dismounted from my
horse to give water to a dying boy, who
lay upon his gun with a bullet-hole
through his head, when, few yards to
the right, l observed an officer being car
ried down the hill on stretcher. Riding
up, inquired of the men:
"Who have you here!"
"Adjutant Marsh, of the 2ist Michi-
gam" was the reply.
"Wbere arc you wounded, Adjutantw
ain the left arm" was the reply.
"Badlyp l inquired; when with
smile, lighting up his face, at the same in
slant | discovered the arm adhering TO
the body by small piece of flesh, he re-
piled:
any arni is gone; that's nothing;
we've beaten them, thank God, and the
slur of the Chickamauga defeat is oblit-
Grated. Let the arm perish; such vic
tory is worth a thousand arms"

TRY to be Useful.

"You can all be useful if you will,
boys" said teacher to his class one
Sabbath. "If yoa cannot do a great
deed you can do little one"
The boys said nothing, but the teacher
saw by their looks that they thought he
was mistaken. Clearly, they did not be-
heve they could be of any use, so he
added:
"Well, only try"
" Hot0 shall we try7" asked one of the
boys, timidly.
Keep your eyes open and your hands
ready all this week, and tell me next
Sunday if you have not managed to be
useful in some way or other" said the
teacher.
We will, replied the boys.
The next Sabbath those boys gathered
round their teacher with smiling lips, and
eyes so full of light that they fairly twin
killed. ike stars. He smiled in response
and said:
"Ah, see by your looks that you all
heTe something to tell me"
We have, sir; we have" replied the
boys In chorus.
Then each one told his story.

fourth boy, "when saw a little boy cry

his tears and ran off feeling very
happy"
A fifth boy said: ~ saw my mother

little wagon. She did, and l gave him
