To SUBDUE THE SMELL.-The IN
pleasant odor produced by perspira-
tion is frequently the source of vexa-
ton to the persons who are subject to
it. To remove this odor efectually it
is only necessary to procure some of
the compound spirits of amonia and
place about two tablespoonful in a ba-
sin of water. Washing the face,
hands and arms with this, leaves the
skin rs sweet and clean as one could
wish. The wash is perfectly harmless,
and very cheap. 1t is recommended
on the authority of an experienced
physician.

premises foul places that cannot well
be cleared out, sprinkle them with car

time to time. This will neutralize the
miasmatic poisons that rise from them
during warm weather, which is a great
eenerator of fevers, dysenteries, etc.
No family can be too careful with re.
spect to this. If one has q damp veg.

fectant. Many a long and severe

" Hard Times"

THE farmer who owns his land, is free
from debt, and has tolerable Improvements,
cannot comprehend the full meaning of
the term hard times" Hence farming is
the best and surest vocation for the mass
of the people; as a general result IL does
not lead to wealth and luxury, but 1t may
certainly insure competence and even
abundance. To the jaded, unfortunate,
unsuccessful business man, there is no
prospect that looks so enticing as that of a
beautiful farm. well improved, fully
stocked, and carefully titled. 1t is haven
of rest, where the corroding care and life
sapping anxiety of a city business are un-
known; domain over which he is king,
and where he may enforce his will undls-
puted by any one. The true pleasure OF
the farmers vocation consists in his init
mate relation to nature, and his possession
of all the rational enjoyments of life.
Why, then, do we hear the complaint
from so large a mass of the farmers that
times are hard?" The answer is, they are
in debt. Debt is a curse that entails far
greater hardships than the fiat which pro
nounced the doom of man to till the soil and
earn his bread by the sweat of his brow.
War prices and war currency afflicted alarge
portion of farmers with greed OF gain,
which they indulged by plunging into debt.
They were not content with securing good
homes, fitting them up in comfort and
laying something by for rainy day, but
they grew lustful for broad acres and lux
uries which can only be enjoyed in large
cities, and are but burdens to country life,
and now that reverses cut short expected
incomes, the pressure of debt is felt, and
the cry is hard times"
If we could teach only one precept with
force to farmers, it would be this: Make
| yourself independent. Owe no man any
thing Make your business snug and safe
instead of expensive and risky. Then you
can sit by your own hearth sides, and, ii
hard times" looks in at the window
you can laugh in his face.-Perin Ioaoe.

WOman's Devotion.

Sheriff Prichard tells us that the wife of
George Hyer (sentenced to the Peniten-
tiary for five years for horse stealing), fol-
lowed her huaband to the walls of the
prison. They attempted to get away from
Lewiston without letting her know about
il. but the poor woman was evermore on
the watch at the depot, and so she was on
hand when the officers and prisoners
started away last week, and following on
the cars, hung about the neck of her hus-
band to the end of the journey. Mrs.
Hyer had two children. These she had
deliberately given away TO her people, de-
termined to remain in Joliet, near her hus-
hand. so that she could see him as often as
possible, and be ready, at the end of the
five wears, to welcome him again to free
dom. She hoped she would be permitted
to see him often, but this fond hope was
rudely torn from her by the stern prison
rules. She can see HIM but once In two
months, and then but for two or three
minutes in the presence of a guard. She
can write to him as often as she pleases !;
but he can write in reply only once a
month. After learning these facts the
sheriff tried to get her TO return to her
family, near Peoria, but her resolution v as
firmly taken She had given up home and
children to be near her husband, and there
she determined to stay at whatever sacrl-
fee. They left her alone and triendless, a
stranger in a strange city, weeping as If
her heart would break, but unwavering In
her devotion to her husband. No entr' atty
of husband, or friend, or stranger could
move her heart to leave him in his long
mprisonment.-Fulton County, .IV, Dem

The Population of the United States.

The official returns of the census of
1870, upon the first schedule that of pop
ulation, are now so nearly complete that in
most of the larger States the result can be
given with great exactness; and in the
whole country, by estimating a few dis
tricts, they can be asceriained with -sufi
cient nearness for all political purposes.
The following table has been made up with
great care, and includes the precise figures
of every official return which had reached
the Census Bureau up to the hour of open
ing business this morning, with the hest
estimates the officers of the Bureau have
the means of making for the districts
whose returns are still defective:

quite as bad as others:
