| knew DO, how MANNED and broken
might be, but lay as sOrely helpless as
though svery limb was severed from my
body.
On the morning Of the second day after
the wind-stOrm, opened my eyes ration
ally upon the faces Of my father and mo-
ther. Others we're around whose countcn.
snces looked familiar, but had forgotten
their names. Without turning my head
l looked from the window and saw the
wildly strewn path Ofthe hurricane. which
seemed to have turned aside in its course,
to spare our cottage. The sun was just
appearing IN the east, above a range Of
purple and fame eolored clouds while
gazed he sent a shower Of of rosy beams
across the discolored landscape, through
the cottage window and over my pillow.
Some one stepped to the easement and
drew the white curtain, then returned to
the bedside and laid soft hand lightly
over my eyes. That magic touch was oil
and balm to every nerve. Beneath its
steadily'deepeniDg influence my pain left
me, and sank into Inconsistencies, the
blessed inconsistencies of natural sleep.
How often during the miserable months
that followed, did thank Col for the de-
licious rest, the slumberous rap;u that
would flow through my frame, from that
soft touch on my eyellds! Through all
those months, that one was almost con-
stantly with me, as physician, nurse and
friend. He saved my life. and with it the
use of every part ofmy frightfully injur-
ed body. Reaecting now upon the nature
of his task, and the peculiarities of his
position, can comprehend, in measure,
with what superhuman persistence, with
what almost life-destroyiDg anxiety he
fought death for me.

Rhoda Lake, about two miles from Co

almost frantic with fright, she seized the
child and rushed towards the house. No

arms than the eagle showed fight. 1t fol-

the little girl, several times touching her
hair with his beak; but by running rapidly
and shielding the child as best she could,
managed to reach the house in safety.
Enraged at thus being cheated of its prey,
the eagle flew against the door and beat
furiously at the windows, as il determined
to effect an entrance, until Mrs. Decker,
fearing it might break in, hid her child
in closet for greater security. At night

And, though it is sad, oh, my dear one,
So sad that our parting must be,
We shall meet, in the far distant Future,

For a season, my darling from thee,
Yet know that it is not forever,
Then, do not grieye always for me. .a

Still, do not grieve always for me.

New Way to Save Melons

a friend that the thieves got SO
many of his melons that it WASH :

"Tll tell you how to save your
melons," said his friend. Il could
not keep my melons nor other fruit;
But little while ago a missionary
of the Sunday School Union got up
q Sunday school here, and l haven't
had any melons stolen since. He
just keeps telling them they'll go to
some awful hot place if they steal,
or lie, or cuss, or break Sunday, and
then he gives the youngsters such
nice pictures, and teaches them to
sing such nice songs, that they'd
a heap sight rather go to Sunday
School than eat melons if they had
them.Yf 81 3fft fAsfttt

Hydophobia.

Whatever charlatans may say,
there is no remedy for canine mad
ness. When bitten the surest
means to escape infection is the APP
plication ofred-hot iron with firm
hand ,and as soon as possible, A
curtin-rod. small poker, bit of
stout wire; a knife, any iron near
est to hand, heated to a bright red,
will suffice. With this the wound
must he sounded aud burned. 1t
is good to put the iron again in the
fire, land repeat the operation effectu-
ally. The pain is quite supportable.
NJ. Leblanc, senior, says that the
cauterization gives the person Bit
ten, not exactly pleasure, but decid-
ed satisfaction, because the sense
of preservation and safety complete
ly oyerpowers the pain inflicted.
In Hayti, where canine madness is
common, they apply gunpowder to
the wounded parts, and then set fire
to it. After this a blister, a mer-
curialtreatment carried to salvation
complete the cure, or rather prevent
the disease. OF course, after these
necessary precautions, any known
nostrum may be employed. Old
woman's precepts and popular pre-
scriptions. can do no harm, and may
do good by keeping up the patients
spirits, and inspiring him with hopes
of a favorable result.
1t is a great consolation to know
that a person may be bitten by
really mad dog without contracting
the disease. A bite through cloth
ing has rarely serious consequences
the saliva-the only vehicle of infec-
tion-being thus wiped from the
animals teeth. Out Of twenty indi-
yiduals bitten, it is uncertain how
many will go mad; perhaps none.
But it is quite certain that they will
not all go mad. The cause of their
escape is unknown ;but such escapes
make the fortune of charlatans, cum
ming men, and practisers of super
stitlons. Bitten persons, who have
taken such and such drugs, or have
gone through such and such devo-
tional forms, and remain unharm-
ed, never fail, they and theirs, to at
tribute the result TO the means en-
ployed. But. it is a reassuring
thought, likely to have favorable
influence, without hindering the
employment of rational precautions,
to know that, although bitten, it is
quite possible not to be touched by
the poison. Infinitely better it is to
persuade the patient of this than to
hazard remedies which will make as
many victims as they are persons
foolish enough to try them.-Apr
