Is il Good for Bows ?

Bows think tobacco is good-at any rate
they persist in trying to use it though 1t
makes them ILL., as if they thought 1t would
prove to be good. A boy nine years OF
age was recently brought in for examlna-
tion by his mother, and having twenty
two inch brain, we advised him never to
touch tobacco, because it had such a ten
dencv to induce the blood to the brain and
keen the bodylean and little Weremarked
that if he ever expected to be full sized
man he must keep clear OF tobacco as ne
would of any other poison. The mother
remarked that she had seen enough OF the
use oftobacco to make her very earnest lni
training her boy relative to its use. She
said her husband used tobacco for ten or
more wears, becoming lean, bilious, and
sicklv: than when he became so weak and
and Ill that he could hardly walk or sit up,
he would smoke several cigars a day.
Finally the doctors informed him that he
must quit using tobacco or go to his grave.
This brought him to his senses, and he re-
solved to try the experiment. From that
dav he used tobacco no more, and in three
months time he went from weight of l30
up to 1875 pounds, and became as hardy,
healthy, and robust man as could be seen
in days ride. That woman thinks tobac-
CO is not good for boys, and she is sure it
is not good for men, She is determined
that her boys shall be kept from it. If pa
rents could realize the extent of the evil
resulting from the use of tobacco, especial
ly by youth, they would certainly refrain
from setting them the bad example. The
appetites of all tobacco users are perverted,
and they are in an abnormal condition of
body and chronological Journal.

combination was irresistible, and he found
ed at once new Empire and a new creed
Had the intellect of Luther been of a more
passive type, his conquests over error had
never been achieved. It was the warlike
ardor with which he. challenged and defed
his antagonists, his enthusiasm as a contro-
versialist, thatenlis6ed sympathetic spirits
under his sbanner, and made the Reforma-
tion success. go come down to later times
confidence inshis own destiny was the IN
spiration of Napoleon, and it was because
he believed IN himself that his army believed
in him. He thought himself irresistible
and so thought every man in his hosts
from the marshals of the empire to the
meanest followers Of the camp. To this
delusion, as much as in his genius, may be
ascribed the glories of his dazzling career.
Stonewall Jackson man of not very ex-
traordinary talent was an enthusiast whose
zeal and fervor were worthy Of better
cause and better fate No red-cross knight
ever shouted the crusaders shibboleth
God wills it !" with more passionate de-
votion than he the war cry Of treason
The fiery zeal that possessed him he COM
municated to those he led, and they per-
formed prodigies of valor.
1t has been ever thus, and ever will be.
Without energy and earnestness, nothing
that the world will think it worth while to
remember can be accomplished. They Of
ten save bad cause from defeat, and al
most invariably secure the ultimate triumph
of good one. In the field, the forum and
the pulpit, in art, science. literature and
love they are alike indispensable to success.
An intellect however copacious, has no
potency without them. 1t is like shell
without fuse-a ball without charge Of
powder behind it. Unfortunately in the
contest between right and wrong all the
vehemence is sometimes on the evil side,
and hence right, now and then gets the
worst of it. "Whatever thy hand fndeth
to do, do it with thy might" is a glorious
precept

A Western Wonder.

The greatest wonder in the State of Iowa
and perhaps any other State, is what they
call the " Walled Lake, located in Weight
county twelve miles north of the Dubuque
and pacific Rail Road, and about one hun
dred and fifty miles west of Dubuque City.
The water is from two to three feet higher
than the earth's surface. In most places the
wall is ten feet high, width at bottom ff-
teen feet, and at the top five. Another
fact is the size of the stone used in its con-
struction; the whole is of stone, varying
in weight from three tons down to one hun
dred pounds. There is an abundance of
stone in Weight county; but surrounding
the lake to the extent of five and ten miles
there are none No one can form an idea
as to the means employed to bring them to
the spot, or who constructed it. Around
the entire lake is belt of woodland, half a
mile in width, composed OF oak with this
exception, the country is rolling prairie.
The trees therefore, must have been plac-
ed there at the time of building the wall
In the spring of 1856 there was great
storm, and the ice on the lake broke the
wall in several places. The farmers in that
vicinity were obliged to repair the damages
to prevent inundation. The lake occupies
a ground surface of L 900 acres, depth of
water as great as twenty-five feet. The wa
ter is clear and cold, soil sandy. 1t is sim
gular that no one has been able to ascer-
tain where the water comes from, and where
it goes to, yet it always remains clear and
fresh.

Base Ball.

This game is great invention. 1t is cas-
ily understood. All you have to do is to
keep your eye on the ball.
It's all about ball.
They also use bat. The bat is club
built on the model of the club Barnum kill
ed Captain Cookwith. This is why the or
ganization is called club.
One fellow takes club and stands on a
line and another stands in front of him, and
fires back at him.
The chap with the club hits back.
The ball flies in the other direction.
The first fellow drops the club as though
he was scared, and rms like pick pocket
with an NJ P after him.
Several fellows run after the ball some
body catches it and fires it at somebody else,
when the chap who had the club stops run
ing.
Another fellow then takes the club and
the same man who is called pitcher pitch
es on him, fires the ball at him, and he hits
back, knocks the ball, drops his clnb and
cuts his sticks for the first base.
Half dozen fellows out on picket duty
scramble for the ball.
One reliable B. B. is posted behind the
club man, in case the club man misses the
ball, to see that it don't go by and hit the
Umpire.
When side is out, the other side goes
in, and when both sides are out, it is called
an innings.
1t is quite an intelligent game, depending
entirely on the use of your legs. The first
principle of the game is running.
When you are " in" you run away from
the ball when you arc out you run af'
ter it.
1t is splendid exercise keeps you so
warm, consequently is always played in the
summer time.

If you have much, give of your goods.
If you have little, give of your heart.
Mistrust young man when you want to

Mistrust your wife when you want to keep

Mistrust a rascally begger when you
have money.
Be kind to everybody and, in the prac-
portion to his education and his intelli-
gence. A physician, however learned he
may be, cannot apply the same remedy to
all diseases.
The greatest king has never carried any
thing but winding sheet out Of the world.
Our virtue is resignation.
Our fortune, the contempt of riches.
Our happiness, the hope of another life.
And if adversity come and prowl around
us, we do not, for that, render less glory to

Put no confidence in woman who is
very thin who is always ailing, or pretend

breathes couple towards earth.

Men are like money and are made, some

of copper. Accept none Of them for more
than they are really worth.
The Rev. DIR. Gilfllan was, one winter
night, sailing from Liverpool to Glasgow
A foppish youth resolved to enjoy some
light conversation with the Scottish parson.
" Pray, Doctor, can you tell me why that
is called the dog-star p said the youth
pointing in the direction of that luminary.
Because it is a sky-terrier, / suppose"
was the reply.
No one can avoid his own company, so
he had best make it as good as possible.
1t is not the varnish upon a carriage

In time of anarchy, let your conduct be
this: With those who sing, sing shriller than
they with those who shout, shout louder
than they with honest people, be more

ais eating carrion, turn jackal, and share
their feast otherwise they will eat you.-

OLD LETTERs.-Ne burn indly-wrlttec
letters it is so pleasant to read them over
when the paper is yellow with age, and
the hands that traced the friendly words
are folded over the heart that prompted
them, under the green sod. Above all,
never burn love-letters. To read them In
after years is like resurrection OF ones
youth. The elderly spinster finds in the
impassioned offer foolishly rejected twenty
years ago, fountain Of rejuyenescence.-
Glancing over it, she realizes that she was
once a,belle and beauty, and beholds her
former self in mirror much more congeni-
alto her taste than the one that confronts her
in her dressing-room. The widow in
deed" derives sweet and solemn consola'
tion from the letters of the beloved one
who has iourneyed before her to the far-otf
land, from which there comes no message,
and where she hopes one day to join him.
No photograph can so vivedly recall to the
memory Of the mother the tenderness and
devotion of the children who have left at
the call of Heaven as the epistolary out
pourings of their love. The letter of a son
or daughter to true mother is sometimes
better an image of the features it is re-
flex of the writer's soul. Keep all loving
letters. Burn only the harsh and cruel
ones, and in burning them, forgive and for
get them.
