the nervous system to increase at fearful ratio.
The symptoms TO which diseases of the ner-
vous system give rise, may be stated as follows.
A dull, heavy feeling IN the head, sometimes
more less severe pain or headache; periodi
cal headache, dizziness, noises or ringing in the
head, confusion of ideas, temporary loss OF
memory, detection of spirits. starting during
sleep, bad dreams, hesitation in answering
questions, dulness Of hearing. twitching of the
face and arms, etc., which, If not promptly
treated, lead to paralysis, deIlrium, impoten-
CT, insanity, apoplexy, etc., etc.

How TO Work or q Debt.

Debt is very bad think for la
boring man, but it is not the worst
evil that could befall him. Ii it is
made stimulus to extra exertiOns,
and if it incites to q close, rigid econ
omy in saving money, it may help
man TO form excellent business hab-
its. 1t is perversity of human ma
ture that we seldom do more than we
are obliged to. An honest young
man will feel that he has not anV
right to luxuries that can just as well
be dispensed with, when his creditors
are waiting for their money. If his
wife is a suitable helpmeet, she will
eschew tinery and expensive house
furnishings until she can buy them
with honest money.
If both will set out with a fixed
determination to make all they can
and save all they can towards paying
of the debt, they need not feel I'M
der ordinary circumstances, to go in
TO business on a moderate amount of
borrowed capital. But let every one
IN such position, remember to save
even the pennies towards the debt.
Let them not despise as too much
trouble, Obliging neighbOr with
even half Pint of milk every morn
ing. Even that trifle would paw the
interest OH over a hundred dollars for
year. 1t is some trouble to pick for
neighbOr the half dozen quarts of
Currants or berries you do not wish
for yourself, and you think il too lit
tle profit to make il worth while, but
the dollar or even half dollar you
will gain will help towards the debt.
When eggs are forty cents q dozen,
it may be q little self-denial to do |
without a nice breakf fast of them !
when you have them in the house,
but prudent hOusekeeper will |
choose rather TO provide "a less ex-
pensive meal and defers her omelette |
untill they are lower priced.
BY slow and steady small savings, |
even very heavy debts are thus |
worked off, and more than this, |
habits are formed, which lay the |
foundation of future princely for
tunes, Many person never began
10 think pecuniarily, until he was in
debt. But to incur debt above
your probable meanes of defraying
within the given time, is not only
unwise but dishonest. Remember il !
will not depend so much upon what
you earn, as upon what you save,
whether you will be able to pay il or
not Country Gentleman.

What OF the Prices ,

BY all the signs of the times it is
apparent that the market price of
farm products is to be greatly adj
yanced. Over very wide expanse
Of country, the crop of small grains
and grass is light; in fact, i'm many
locations there is almost an entire
failure. Though the rains have been
copious within the past few days, the
devastating work of the drouth was
accomplished.
The report of the Commissioner of
Agriculture, based Upon q very wide
and approximately accurate range of
reports, attest the same condition of
leading cereals throughout the great
grain producing states of the north.
1t also shows us that the acreage falls
below that Of last year, a condition
of affairs we had not looked for.
The wheat plant has not alone
suffered in this country. We last
week gave the condition of this cereal
in trance, as given by our CORES
pondent at Paris. Our last English
advices are far from favorable. June
was an exceedingly hot and dry
month there, are oats and other small
grains were considered in jeopardy.
In parts of Germany the stocks of
grain are very deficient.
1t is delicate matter to advise
when to sell, but from the general
outlook of to-day we should say to
those who have held for higher
prices, to wait little yet, and to
those who are now gathering the
seasons crops, hold on for the better
day coming, and reap the profit that
the middle men and the speculator
will. IL seems, surely reap if your
products soon pass out of your hands.

SMELT FISHING EXIRAoRDINARY.-The bay
of Santa Cruz, according to the Sentinel, is
just now capital place for fishing. 1t says:
Our bay at the present time is swarming
with those finest of fish, smelt. So numerous
are theyt that the water presents the appear
anco Of solid mass of fish. The whGrvcs are
daily lined with scores of enthusiastic dis
ciples of Ike Walton, and every kind of con-
triyance is brought into play to capture the
hnny beauties. Dip-nets are used by which
whole basketfuls are captured at a single
haul, and grapnels of fishhooks, with which
the urchn 'yanks' out two or three at time.
Then you have true disciples of Walton who
scorn TO take advantage of the countless num-
bers, and are satisfied with n single fish ut II
haul. All cOlors. ages and sexes, from the
noisy six-year old to the gray haired sire, go
home laden with smelt. Schools of porpOises
play along the shore; sharks, fish hawks, gulls,
and now and then an ungainly pelican swoops
down on the doomed fish, and making an
awkward movement III mid-air, stops, gaZcs
down, plunges, turns a double somersault,
disappears beneath the wave, and rises III II
moment with his net full. Here is fun for the
million"
