A Young Lady

Returning to her country home after So
journ of a few months in the city, was hardly
recognized by her friends. In place of coarse
rustic flushed face, she had soft ruby COM
plexiop of almost marble smoOthness, and In
stead of twsnty.threc she really appeared but
eighteen. Upon inquiry as to the cause of 80
great a change, she plainly told them that she
used the Circnssian Balm, and considered
it an invaluable acquisition to any Lady's toilet

DR.. Schenck'S Mandrake Pills
A Substitute for CalOmel.

These Pills are composed Of various roots
having the power to relax the secretions of the
liver as promptly and effectually as blue pill OF
mercury, and without producing any OF those
disagreeable or dangerous effects which often
follow the use of the latter.
In all bilious disorders these Pills may be used
with confidence, as they promote the discharge
of vitiated bile, and remove those instructions
from the liver and hillary ducts, which are the
cause of bilious affections in general.
SCHENCK'S MANDRAKE PILLS cure Sick
Headache, and all disorders Of the Liver, indi.
Gated by sallow skin, coated tongue, costiveness,
drowsiness, and q general feeling Of WEAKNESS
and lassitude, showing that the liver Is In tor.
pid or DISTRACTED condition.
In short, these Pills may be used with advan.
tage in all cases when purgative or Alternative
medicine is required.
Please ask for DIR. Schenck's Mandrake Fills, "

Whom Not to Marry.

A Southern editor expresses himself
annoyed in behalf of the fair sex ut the
reception Of the following, and yet in
consistently publishes it.: "Never mar
ry a woman whose love for yen will de-
pend upon the qualification of her wants,
or of her love of power. For however
ardently she may profess an attachment
to you, or extol you to others, or take
pride in hearing your good qualities
praised, you may rest assured that the
moment you venture to interfere with
what she considered her sole preroga-
tive, even though it be the discharge of
solemn duty, or an exercise Of the
rights which, as protector and pro-
wider for your family, you possess, both
in law and equity, then she will hate
you as cordially as she loved, and not
be at all backward in calling you very
ugly names to your face. No matter for
your excuses, or for disclaimers of ma.
licious or spiteful intent, you are lost
man so far as, your domestic peace is
concerned-take my word for it,"

Tell your Wife.
lfyou are in any trouble or quandary,
tell your wife-that is if you have one
all about it at once. Ten to one her
invention will solve. your difficulty
sooner than all your logic. The wit OF
woman has been praised, but her in
stincts are quicker and keener than her
reason. Counsel with your wife, or
your mother or sister, and be assured
light will fash upon yous darkness.
Women are too commonly adjudged
as verdant in all but purely womanish
affairs. No philosophical student of the
sex thus judges them. Their intuitions,
or insights, are tine most subtle, and if
they cannot see cat in the meal, there
Is no cat there. In counselling man
to tell his trouble to his wife, we would
go farther, and advise him to keep none
of his affairs secret from her. Many a
home has been happily saved, and many

dence in his ''bstter half" Woman is
far more seer and prophet than man,
if she be given q fair chance. AS gen.
eral rule, wives conRde the minutest of
their plans and thoughts to their hus-
bands, having no involvements to screen
from them. Why not reciprocate, if
but for the pleasure of meeting conf
dence with confidence. We are certain
that no man succeeds so we'll in the
] world as he, who. taking a partner for
life, makes her the partner of all his
purposes and hopes. WHAT'S wrong of
his impulse or Judgment, she will check
and set right with her almost universal

IL IS somewhat surprising that, with
all our boosted Improvements, we have
not, as yet, produced proper cover
ing for the feet. Barbarous people,
ftheir climate admits, go with bare
feet, or wear sandals, covering only
the sole of the foot We, however,
encase the whole of the foot, and n
portion of the leg, III material almost
impervious to air and moisture, and
generally uncomfortably hard and rig
id. The color and polish of our boots
are directly calculated to attract the
suns rays; and the enamel on patent
leather and the backing on ordinary
calfskln, tends 70 harden and solidfy
the substance, closing the pores, and
making alright cases for portion of
the body which eNudes more perspira-
ton than any other Our boots in
summer parboil our feet IN warm
bath, and ln winter freeze them in an
icy envelope. Il is doubtful if wet
feet are, III themselves, very conducive
TO disease, some medical men say to
the contrary, Notwithstanding; but
cramped confinement of the feet in an
icy cold envelope. generated by per-
spiratlon, and chilled by the external
atmosphere, thus shutting the impris-
oned feet almost air-tight, is as un-
healthy as 1t is uncomfortable.
For hot weather, tLese is hardly any
shoe 80 agreeable as that introduced
within the past three or four years,
known as the amy shoe, and extern
slvely used Icy ball players. 1t is of a
heavy canvas and unblacked leather.
1t is cool and remarkably easy TO the
feet. The texture of the canvas al
lows the escape of the perspiratr ron,
and the color of the shoes does not at
tract the heat OF the sun. 1t would
seem that other portions of the
body with material peryious TO mir.
might adyantageously be extended to
our feet. There rs no natural reason
why our feet should be so much less
sensitive than our hands. They be-
come indurated and deprived of their
natural activity by long, close con
iinement The people OF warm eli
mates who use their toes as we do our
fingers, and the bare footed school
boy, who picks up, and throws pebbles
with his feet. show that the foot of the
civilized adult iii our climate is a much
abused member. A more flexible and
porous material for our boots and
shoes might save us from many OF
those terrible annoyances which, in
the form of corns and bunions, make
our pilgrimage one Of pain. Scientific
