readers to be saving Of health for their old
age, for the maxim holds good with regard to
health - to money; waste not, want not. 1t
is the great mistake to suppose that any vio-
lasion Of the laws Of health can sscape its
penalty. Nature forgave no sin, NO error.
She lets offthe offender for fifty years some
times, but she catches him at lest, and in
Hicts the punishment just when, just where,
just how he feels it most. Save up, for old
age, but save more than money save health,
save honor, save knowledge, save the recol-
lection of good deeds and innocent pleasures.

Two terrible tired travellers toiled through
tangled thickets, thickly thorned, towards
the Taliturn turnpike, telling tender touching
tales theoretically told to those that thought
themselves too thoroughly tacticians. There.
fore, the throng, that threw themselves thick.
ening thitherward thought them Thespians
Thirsty, they tippled together. Their tedious
trihing leased the townsmen terribly
key took the two tipplers to the town trap
Thus the Taliturn turnpike tale terminated
tending toward the tragic.
The Ironton Southeast Missouri Enterprise
Of July 9th, says:
"Those Of our citizens who remained
awake until late hour last Tuesday night
were favored with one of the grandest mete-
oric displays ever witnessed. At about half
past eleven clock, q large meteor started il
the Southern skies, and rapidly proceeded
tacross the heavens in Northern direction
sThe trail or train of the meteor was unusually
Upright and beautiful, and remained visible fol
lat least thirty minutes, assuming at times va
,ried and beautiful shapes and colors. During
fthe passage of the meteor the light was equa
almost TO that of the sun, and pin or any
other small object could have been easil,
seen"
FEARFUL LIGHTNING STRoKE.-On the 27tl
ult., large crowd were assembled at tn,
Springville, Ohio, Agricultural grounds, whel
q thunder storm suddenly came up and tn,
company sought refuge in the exhibition
sheds. The lightning struck one Of the sheds
which was full of women, children ant
horses. About q hundred persons were par
alyEed, and as many as fifty were rendered in
sensible for FIVE or ten minutes, while abou
a dozen were quite seriously burned; tire,
or four are not expected to recover. Two
horses we're killed.
