. REvACCINATIoN.--An infant should
be vaecinated not earlier than month
alter its birth; if it takes well, another
careful vaccination at about fourteen
will odinarily be lifelong protection.
At smallpox hospital in England, it is
the invariable custom to revaccinate eyery
nurse who enters the establishment to
take care Of the sick, and in thirty-four
years there has not been q single case OF
a nurse having taken smallpox. The
older persons get after vaccination, the
less likely are they to have any form
of tho disease.

PANTlFU bUNu.
While the shadows slowly lengthen,
Utter we our fond farewell;
May it serve the love to strengthen
That has bound us like q spell
Tho the chosen work before us
CLEANS with hopes enkindling rays,
Ever shall steal softly DER us,
Mem'ries of these golden days.
Though the farewell word be spoken,
And we soon in sadness part;
Though the outward chain be broken,
We shall still be one In heart.
May we then have sweet communion
With each other and the past;
Praying that in glad reunion
We may meet in heaven at last.
