DEArn.-we have never read any.

DEATH have never read any
thing more beautiful than the following
from the pen of George D. Prentice
There is but breath of air and beat
of the heart betwixt this world and the
next. And III the brief interval of pain
ful and awful suspense. while we feel
that death is present with us, that we are
powerless, and he all powerful, and the
faint pulsation here is but the prelude OF
endless life hereafter, we feel in the midst
Of the stunning calamity about to befaIl
US, that the earth has no compensating
good to mitigate the severity of our loss.
Bot there is no grief without some bene-
fcient provision to soften its intenseness.
When the good and lovely, the memory
of their good deeds, like the moonbeams
on the stormy sea, lights up our darkened
heart and lends to the surrounding gloom
beauty so sad. so sweet, that we would
not, if we could, dispel the darkness that
environs it.

came, and that is why cried.
I've tried to-day to wake dear mamma.
and cannot. She will not speak TO me,
or move, or open her bright eyes. She
does not even turn when the baby cries
Both her h;tlc hands are laid upon her
breast, and are full of flowers. And
Cousin Lizzie and Gamma are all in black
trocks, and I've black ribbons on. And
Bob sits by her with his head in his hands;
and Uncle Joe cries as he stands beside
them both, and lays his hand On his
shoulder, and says, ''God help brotter.''
And all the while the sun is shinin. in The
streets, and the people 20 by as they al
ways do. The canary might know this
was no time 10 SiDg-when dear mamma
will never wake again.
She held NE in her arms last night, and
kissed me, and said, '.Good-by, little
Joe" They tell me she has gone to
heaven; but it is no comfort 10 me. l
don't know where heaven is, or how to get
there. l looked Up at the stars, bat
liked the shine Of mammals eyes better.
And / wanted her here I must be good
TO the baby, and I mean 20 b. whatever
happens, I'm going 10 stand by that baby.

CATs.-Some practical joker in Gin
cinnati advertised in one of the city pa
pers that a certain mercEant-giving his
name and place Of business was in want
of cat, and that for a good one, ten dol
lars would be paid. The next morning
the.stoEe was literally besieged by urcllins
with their arms full of-black cats, white
cats, speckied cats, Thomas cats, ancient
cats, Juvenile cats, and every urchin de-
manding bis ten dollars. Later in the
day distressed looking gentleman,
covered with cats hairs, presented him
self at the office of the advertising paper,
and with extreme Indignation announced
that he never owned q cat, never wanted
a cat and devoutIy hoped never again to
see a cat. The publishers sympalhized,
and declared it was catastrophe.

OILT PEOPLE Particularly smooth
and oily people bear watching Beneath
the tongue which is as glass, and the
smile which is as the rose. there may lurk
that which is of quite different nature
Excess is always suspicious, and in speech
and matter especially 50. If you are
piled with words that have an unwonted
sweetness, whether from man or woman,
and you are pressed with uncommon soli-
citude, just put yourself on the defensive.
until you comprehend the situation.

PORTABLE
SELF-ACTING FIRE ENGINE

TINlIlS invention has for its object the extin-
gushing Of Fires in a more instantaneous
manner than has hitherto been discovered.
The advantages to be derived from the use o!
the EXTlNGUlSHER are us follows
Every fire begins on small scale, and its
rapid and icontrollable increase is owirg
to the fact that at the time of its commencement
when every moments delay in checking it is
of the utmost importance) no means are ready
at hand
The EXTINGUlSIlERi is the the only Engine
that fills this recruitment,
Its is always ready for use, though standing
unused for years.
1t saves the dcluge OF water now used for
this purpose.
1t is as effective in the hands of Boy as
the most experienced Fireman.
1t is portable, and as easily handled as
bucket OF water.
1t possesses within its self the power of
force pump, and rs effective as Steam En-.
CINE.
1t is the only known invention that will put
out Fires from Kerosene, Tar, Naphtaline, and
other combustible materials now in common
use.

HEALTH REcIpE.-When persons are
fcvcrsh and thirsty beyond what is natu-
raj, indicated in some cases by metallic
taste in the mouth, especially after drink
ing water, or by a whitish appearance of
the greater part of the tongue, one of the
best " coolers" internal or external, is to
take lemon, cut off the top, sprinkle ever
it some fine loaf sugar, work it downward
into the lemon with spoon, and then suck
it slowly, squeezing the lemon and adding
more sugar as the acidity increases from
being brought up from lower point. In
valids with feverishness may take two or
three lemons day in this manner, with
the most marked benefit manifested, by a
sense of GOODNESS, comfort, and invigora-
ton. A lemon or two taken thus at tea
time, as an entire substitute for the ordi-
nary "supper" of summer, would give
many man comfortable nights sleep, and
an awaking of rest and inauguration with
an appetite for breakfast, to which they are
strangers who will have their cup of tea or
supper "rclish" and "coke," and berries or
peaches and cream.-Halrs Journal Of
Health.
