"R1NG THE BELL SOFTLY"

Some one has gone from this strange world OF ours
No more to gather its thorns With its flowers;
No more to linger where sunbsams must fade;
Whore all beauty deaths fingers are laid -
Weary with mingling lifs's bitter and sweet;
Weary with parting and never to meet
Some one has gone to the bright golden shore;
Ring the bell softly. there's Grape on the door.
Some one is resting from sorrow and sin;
Happy where earths conflicts enter not in;
Joyous as birds when the morning is bright;
When the swee. sunbeams have brought Us their
light
Weary with sowing and never to reap;
Weary with labor and welcoming sleep;
Some ones departed to heavens bright Shore
Ring the bell softly, there's Grape On the door.
Angels we're anxiously longing TO meet
One who walks with them in heavens bright street
Loved ones have whispered that some one is blest;
Free frem earth's trials and taking sweet rest -
Yes, there is more in angelic bliss;
One less to CHERISH and one less to kiss;
One more departed to heavens bright Shore
Ring the bell softly, there's Grape on the door.

III a pleasant section of New jersey
the charming town of Vineland has
sprung up, and within few years has
grown into fair proportions. Health,
quiet. refinement, religion and educa-
tion abide there. and in all respects
the moral tone Of the people is pure
and elevated, because of the absence
of the artll-tempter from the conInll-
nifty. The New Jersey GDod TemJiF,
alludins to this young town, says that
from the settlement OF Nineland IN
1851. until now, there has not been a
dram shop suffered to exist, and even

COLDS AND How TO TREAT THEN.
When YOU are attacked again with
Il hard cold treat it as fellows: Eat no
supper. On going to bed drink two
tumblers Of cold water. For break
fast eat i piece Of dry bread as large
as your hand. Go ont freely during
the morning. For dinner cat about
the same is YOU ate for breakfast.
During the afternoon take a sharp
walk, or engage in some active cXer-
else which shall produce little pcrs-
piration. Go without your supper
and retire early drinking. before you
jump into bed, as much cold water as
you can swallow. The next morning
you are ncrly well. If, instead, you
feed the cold, it will stay a week or
ten days, and wind up with u hard
cough and eXpeetoation. A cold is
not, ls many think, the result alone
of exposure to a sudden change in the
atmosphere. 1t is the product of two
factors: one Is a certain condition of
the within. and the other is a certain
condition of the without. The only
soil in which this plant can grow Is Il
certain condition of the system, the
prominent feature of which is a de-
ranged stomach. Those who have
good digestion very rarely have colds.
So, to prevent colds, YOU must keep
your stomach in good condition; in
other words You must keep yourself
in high health. There are some llab-
its which give a general tendency to
colds, for example. the Use Of hot
drinks. which in addition to flooding
AMI weakening the stomach, open the
skin and Increase thereby scnsibility
to the influence of external changes
The use of warm hltlls especially
warm foot baths. Wearing the same
Ganncls during the night that have
been worn during The day. Using fat
meats and pastry, thereby derlnging
