Vigorous Women.

Physically our American women
OF to>day present striking contrast
with those of ten years ago. Wasp
like waists have disappeared. Deli
cate limbs, languid countenances, and
frail constitutions generally have
ceased to be at premium, and in
their place we have strong limbs,
ruddy checks, and robust constitu-
tions. The English women are year
ly becoming more the model. With
out becoming strong~minded, in the
common acccpUation of the term,
our wives, daughters, and sisters
are becoming stronger physically.
We do not ailude, of course, to those
whose lives are devoted to a round
OF fashionable gayety and dissipation.
This encouraging change is to a con-
siderable extent due to our outdoor
pastimes inaugurated among the
women. Horseback riding, ten pins,
crouquet, billiards, skating, and
walking have ceased TO be confined
to the sterner sex. Women eagerly
embrace these amasements, and
seemingly derive all the enjoyment
they are capable of yielding.
The English girl, who thinks
nothing of doing five mile walk
before breakfast, now finds a COM
petitor in her American COUSIN
Many of the most devoted and skill
full disciples OF the curling art belong
to the other sex. Women WELD their
croquet- mallets, pocket billiard balls,
and make ten strikes with all the
enthusiasm of the male sex. A fond.
ness and taste for these astimes
should be fostered end evnloped
instead of beng repressed and check
ed through fear of their making
women unwomanly. Marriage, .
says Michlet, "is the chief end OF
woman" If such be the case, she
can attain it in no quicker way than
by presenting robust physique,
overlooking with animal life and
spirits, in contrast to weak, puny
constitution, bending before any adj
verse wind.

PARENTAL RESPONSIBILITY. Go to
the schools and asylums for idiots
and imbeciles to the reformatories
for juvenile delinquents to the mad
houses for the insane, and ascertain
the causes of these human. miseries.
Is idiocy, imbecility, or insanity to
be charged to the Creator? Is GOD
the author of these imperfections =?
or do they result from a violation of
his laws? 1t must be clear to every
enlightened mind that this matter of
Inheritance is governed by law; that
its obedience secures all the blessings
which naturally flow therefrom, and
that its Infringement is punished as
herein indicated. What a blessed
thing it is to inherit full, vigorous,
healthful constitution and what a
misfortune to be born of a sickly,
puny, or corrupt parentage Health
is duty disease is a misfortune, to
call it by no harsher term. Reader,
the Scriptures are sustained by sci
ence when they command US to see
to it that We present our bodies "a
living sacrifice, HOLY and acceptable
unto God" Can the drunkard do
this ? Can he whose very bones are
foul with filthy tobacco do it? Let
us consider our duty in these re
spec,s, not only 10 ourselves, but To
our descendants and to our God, and

Farm Proverbs.

Do not keep more live stock on
your farm than you can keep well.
House all things as much as pos
sible-animals, utensils, and crops
Sell when you can get fair price,
and do not store for rats and specu-
lators.
The more comfortable you can
keep your animal, the more they will
thrive. n
A good COW is valuable machine
the more food she properly digests,
the greater the profit.
A few roots daily to all the stock
are as welcome as apples to boys
and girls.
Iron shoes on sleds last lifetime.
They are really cheaper in the end
than wooden ones.
Replace all 1.-The bars whore you
pass often by strong gates, and then
wonder that you didn't do so before.
Although, in draining land thor
oughly, your purse may be drained
yet the tub crops that follow will fill
it again.
Always give tie soil the first meal
If it is we'll fed with manure, it will
feed all else-plants animals, and
men.
A borrowed tool, if broken, should
be replaced by a new one. A nice
sense Of honor in such matters is
much to be commended.
ltseems strange that housekeepers
don't buy pals and tubs with brass
hoops and trimmings. They cost q
little more at first, but last wonder
fully.

some who have false pride in it,
because they demand more consider.
alton than they merit. A want OF
intelligence upon all the subjects of
the day and Of refined education
is no more excusable in country
than in town-bred girl, in these
days of many books and newspapers.
Many girls are discouraged because
they cannot be sent away from home
to Neutrality-suspicious.; but men OF
superior minds and knowledge of the
world, would rather have for wives
women well and properly educated
at home. And this education can
be bad whenever the desire is not
wanting. A taste for reading does
wonders and an earnest thirst after
knowledge is almost certain to attain

PLAIN SPEECH TO MOTHERS Prof.
Simpson, of Edinburgh, who has
had large and long experience in the
medical treatment of mothers and
children, gave public address lately
on matters of hygiene. He spoke
most plainly to mothers who send
their children to the grave by ex-
posing arms and led, while other
parts of the body are warmly dress.
ed. Mothers, he continued commit
child>murder and then wonder how
God could be SO unkind as to take
away their darling. They not only
murder their children, but in his
opinion commit suicide themselves,
by exposing their own necks to the
cold air. 1t was puzzle, which he
could not understand, that women
should cut off the top Of their dress
es and appear with bare bosoms in
refined society, while that part of
the dress which should protect the
heart and lungs, and other vital or
gans, is trailing in the mud.
Not to speak of health at the pres
ent moment, he would remark that
the exhibition Of semi-nude bust
seldom approaches to the classical
standard of harmonious proportions,
Of proportions Of parts and tullness
OF outline, and is rarely suggestive
of beauty and loveiness. The in
quisitive observer feels himself quite
at loss to know the precise line OF
division between the part which
fashion claims for exposure and the
rest which modesty would conceal
The boundary is too changeable.-
More ought to be left to the imagin-
alton and less to be condemned by
good taste. But, if mothers, and
fnll~grown daughters, insist on being
the Victims of fashion, children ought
to be exempt from it's insane and
cruel requirements. What has fashr
ion to do with children, or they with
fashion ?-Philadelphia Ledger.

CURIOUS DIsCovERY.-Some years
ago q curious discovery was made by
a gentleman ofWest Roxbury, Mass.
and from it fanciful idea has been
developed upon apples and pears in
his orchard. Having Observed that
an apple did not redden in that part
of the fruit where q leaf happened
to lie upon it, he cut out letters from
newspapers, and when the apples
were yet green he pasted the letters
on with gum tragacanth. The APP
pies would redden in all parts not
covered with pasted letters. When
the fruit had Redeemed to perfection,
TIE letters were removed, and they
would appear permanently located
in green. So, again, when he pasted
on the apples paper in which the
letters were cut out, the part covers
ed by the paper would be green, and
the letters would appear distinctly
turned in red, the green surrounding
them. The experiment is very
pretty one; and the orchard in Rox
bury exhibited this fall many famil-
lar names and Inscriptions, all pro-
duced in the skin Of the fruit, without
abrasion, or any foreign impression.

The feeding of horses with arsenic
Is very common practice, both in

fed horse, as is we'll known to horse
dealers, has an appearance of great
vitality and strength it has a good
appetite; its mouth in abundance,
while its eyes are glowing and fiery
The arsenic is given to it either in
the shape of powder strewn among
the hay, or it is tied in a small linen
bag to the Bit The buyer is liable
to be greatly deceived in his bargain
and if the poison be not given to the
animal as before, the most careful
grooming and nutritious feed cannot
prevent it from becoming emaciated;
the muscles become slack, the eyes
dull, the joints shaky, and in a short
time real skeleton has taken the
place of the previously beautiful
horse. By regular feeding of the
arsenic, however, the animal becomes
accustomed to large quantities of it.
