IsCELLAN EODs.-

SM1rH1ANA.-The following somewhat
''steep" story is clipped from an exchange !,
ga few weeks ago the Governor of Ohio
offered $500 for the arrest ola man named
John Smith. There are ITO counties in Ohio,
and in less than two days the sheriffs of'all
these counties arrived in Columbus, each with
man named John Smith. During the three
succeeding days over 1000 detectives. po-
liceman, and private citizens, from Kentucky,
Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Ohio, Indiana,
West Virginia, and Illinois, arrived in Co.
lumbus, every fellow bringing with him some
unhappy man named John Smith, and more
arrive every day. The aggregate of Smiths
at present in Columbus is simply awful -
And the worst of it is that every man insists
that his Smith is the particular Smith mem
toned in the proclamation, and he'is going to
have that $500 or hash the Governor right
up. The Governor is trying to decide wheth-
err to pay the reward to ever man in the lot
or resign"

A LETTER FROM MRS. BROWN.


Al, WHY DON'T you TAKE A PAPER, BROWN
Why don't you take paper, Brown?'
Pm sure 1t is shame,
That we can't get the news from town
Before it's old and tame!
There's Deacon Jones across-the way, =.
Who gets one every week,
eAnd he cansheat you all, they say,
When callefiupon to speak.
The reason, sir, is plain you know,
For when he reads itsthnough.
His words like-milk and honey flow,
And all he tells isnew;:
So he is taken by the hand.
For what he can inp1rt:
When old and young around him stand,
And say the Deacon's smart.
Oh, is it not shame, / say,
To hug your purse so tight,
When only few of gTssEriSh scabB'
Would set this matter right:
What good are greenbacks, can you tell
To any of our kind.
Unless they keep the body well,
And benefit the mind?
Why don't you ia Ike paper, Brown?'
The truth, will declare it.
The lille Broicns will all be Bricks,
five buAtake the "SPIRIr."
So let us quit this simple way.
And take h worthier start;
And ere a year, our friends-wiH saw.

THE BATHING SEAsoN-The bathing sea.
son is at hand, and many there are who daily
enjoy the luxury of good bath. There are
rules for bathing as we'll as for everything
else, and as in all other respects, they are gen.
orally disregarded. For instance-baths
should not be taken within at least one hour
before eating, or within two hours after-a
longer period before and after is BETTER The
head and face should be thoroughly bathed
at the commencement of every bath, to prevent
the rushing of blood to the head, and ward
off unpleasant sensations. a bath should
never be taken when the body is exhausted, or
too greatly fatigued by exercise. Moderate
exercise before and after bathing is beneficial
All general baths should be taken briskly,
the body we'll rubbed and quickly dried, and
warmth and reaction brought about.
