The Danger of the Alps.

A correspondent from Switzerland
writes of recent fatal disasters in the vi
cinity of Mont Blanc:
a gentleman with his bride and lady
friend made the ascension to the Grand
Mulets, which is 6,000 feet above the val
ley of Chamounix. The day was SO fine
that when there, urged by the ladies,
whom, with guide, he left behind him,
he started to make the ascension of Mount
Blanc. Shortly after he left them, becom-
ing cold, all three went out for walk,
tied together as they always are for greater
security in the mountain excursions.
Walking upon the ice and snow crust, the
guide offered his arm to the wife, who had
hardly accepted it when, owing either to
the softening of the crust by the heat, or
cracking from the weight or the forma.
tion of a crevasse, both the guide and the
wife disappeared, the friend, only escaping
their fate by the breaking of the rope.
Disappearing TINS instantly in place
which did not seem dangerous, they have
never been seen or found, though eight of
the guides, at the risk of their lives, went
down into the crevasse sixty feet-in fact,
made attempts until the government for
bade any more-as the lives of the others
were periled for those that had been lost.
The lady who was left screamed, and
remained on the spot until the gentle
man returned to find that he had lost wife
and bride, in the enjoyment of full health,
only half an hour previously. Such are
the dangers of ascending Mont Blanc,
where no amount of foresight or expe-
rience can foretell the accidents which NAV
happen at any time, with loss of life to
some Or all of those engaged
"Other accidents have happened: in
deed, every year one or more persons lose
their lives upon this mountain. Captain
Arkwright and four guides were lost in
1866 A bride, in going across the Tete
Nolre-one of the direct routes to Mar
tlny-slipped from her horse unknown to
the guide VINO was leading him, and, fall
ing down a steep precipice, was never
found. An American, who sat next to me
at the table, gave me an account of cross
ing the Glacier des Boissons, where the
glacier having changed so much since the
guide had been there, necessitated leaving
him constantly to go ahead and discover
the way that might be the safest. While
he was gone, some five or ten minutes at
time, if anything had happened to the
guide, the gentleman must have been lost,
for he had neither tools for making or as
slstlng his way, nor experience"

Sixteen Reasons.

A writer in an exchange gives the fol-
lowing plain and forcible reasons for alb
st1nence from the use of intoxicating
liquors as beverage:
1. Because ale, porter, gin, rum, brandy,
ETC., all contain spirit which is calculated
to derange the human system.
.. Because none of these drinks, as an
habltual beverage, are ever useful, but al
ways Injurious to persons in health, and
many protesting Christians, both young
and old, have been ruined by them.
3. Because drunkenness is a besetting
sin and leads to idleness quarrelling, swear.
ing, lighting, stealing, adultery, murder,
ana almost every other sin, and finally to
eternal misery. -.

The Southern Farmer says: Beau
tify your home. 1t is astonishing to see
how much can be done year by year to
adorn and beautify the farmers home and
its surroundings. A few trees set out here
and there; few old decayed trees grubbed
up, perhaps, and removed, an unsightly
wall or fence taken out of the way; in a
thousand ways, indeed, beauty may be
made to spring out of deformity, and that,
too, without any serious expenditure OF
time or money"

Is the great remedy that Physicians appeal to

has created disease of Its own worse than Ii at
which Ii was intended TO cure. There 10 no
drug that leaves its mark more prominent in

it can be given, and have a beniheial effect, but
should not be dealt out As IL has been, and is at
the present time, by those that pretend to know
what they are doing, but in reality do not. The
Liver is more liable to disease than any other
organ in the human system, and wher that fails
to do its duty it leaves the weak points of the
body exposed, as the bile 10 not thrown off, but
