BE SURE You RE RIGHT BEFORE You
Go TO BED.-Cedar Rapids has jealous
husband, but he feels better now. He
is old and rich, and married to young
and pretty wife. Suspicious of her fdel-
ity, gradually increased until the unhap-
Ply man resolved to test them by strata
gem. Announcing his intention to spend
a month at an Eastern water-cure, he de-
parted one morning. but returned by the
next train. Reaching home late in the
evening he armed himself and started for
his residence. Yes, he was right; there
was a bright light in his wife's bedroom.
Crouching under the window, he heard a
low murmuring of voices, and at once be-
gan to work himself into the necessary
passion. Quietly entering the house,
and Fastening to his wife's room. he de-
manded instant admittance. There was
a hurrying of feet within, and his wife
said tremblingly, "Wait a minute. -
This was enough. With tremendous
kick he smashed in the door just in time
to see his wife close the door and place
herself against it. Now he had him !!
Pistol in hand, he thrust the partner of
his sorrow aside, and pulling open the
door of the closet, stood face to face with
a scantily-attired young lady who had
come to stay with his wife. He put up
his pistol and went away.

Sleepless people-and they are many
in America should court the sum-
The very worst sopori6c is laudanum,
and the very best, sunshine. Therefore,
it is very plain that poor sleepers should
pass as many hours as possible in the
sunshine, and as few as possible in the
shade. Many women are martyrs and
yet they do not know it. They shut
the sunshine out of their houses and
hearts, they wear wells, they carry para
soils, they do all that is possible to keep
off the subtlest and most potent infu-
ence which is intended to give them
strength, beauty and cheerfulness. Is
it not time to change all this, and SO
get color and roses in our pale cheeks,
strength in our weak backs and courage
in our timid souls. The women of
America are pale and delicate, they may
be blooming aud strong, and the sun
thine will be potent aid in the trans
formation.

WoMAN's POWER FOR Coon AND EVIL.
One gifted and beautiful woman, if
wrongly disposed, can work more evil in
society, can scatter more seeds of corrup-
ton and death, than, with their utmost
effort, score of men.
Her capabilities for good in the differ
ent departments of morals are equally
great, and in such proportions to her
powers, both for good and for evil, must
be her condemnation if she is false to
stewardship. Society cannot be de-
stroyed if woman is true, nor saved if
woman is false. Besides, society shows
no unequal discrimination in regard to
this particular class of offences The
rule applies to all. A profane woman, a
drunken woman, female theft or muir
derer, excites always greater horror
and disgust than if the crime had been
committed by man. And this is right,
and it will be an evil day for this world
when woman in her sin excites no more
adherence than man.

A CANDIDATE FOR THE GALLows.-In
Springfield, Illinois, recently, two men,
named Henry Stay and Edward Duffy,
while in saloon on Monroe street. got
into good-natured scuf1e, in which
Duffy was thrown rather violently, which
irritAted him to great degree, and he
pulled out revolver, and after few
words with Stay, fired upon and instant
ly killed him. He then turned to the
proprietor of the saloon, Edwin Slater,
and fired upon him, inficting a severe
flesh wound. Not content with what he
had done, Duffy again aimed his revol-
yer at Slater, who cried, "For Gods
sake, don't shoot again am already
crippled" Duffy said, very coolly,
'All right, l won't" and put his revol-
yer in his pocket, walked up to the dead
body of Stay, Strengthened it out, and
then left the saloon, apparently as though
he had killed dog. The police were
Immediately notified. but no trace of the
murderer has been obtained. Both Stay
and Duffy were fremen employed upon
the Toledo and Wabash Railroad. Young
Stay bore an excellent reputation, while
Duffy was known as rather rough Gus
toner.

BEEoHER ON PULPIT HoLLoAING.-In
one of his lectures on preaching, at
Yale, Mr.. Beecher spoke strongly of the
power of enthusiasm in preaching. At
the close Of the lecture, among other
questions asked him, was these: ''Sup-
pose man does not have the enthusi-
asm of which you have spoken, what is
he to do 2" Mr.. Beecher answere: d
''Do the best he can, and stop. l think
it would be very wholesome thing in a
mans parish life, if once in while,
upon finding that he was not making
much of sermon, he should frankly
confess it, and say, Brethren, we will
sing" Whereupon another inquirer
asked: Suppose man tries to work
himself up to feeling of enthusiasm by
action and increased emphasis, can he
be successful? ?" Mr.. Beecher answer
ed: .'In regard to that, l will mention
"a circumstance that occurred to my IA
ther. | recollect his coming home in
Boston one Sunday, when | was quite a
small boy, saying how glad he was to
get home, away from the church; and
he added 1T scenes to me [ never
made worse sermon than [ did this
morning. why, father, said 1, L
never heard you preach so loud in all
my life. That is the way said he,
I always holloa when l haven't any
thing to say ," The worst thing about
this loud preaching is, that it has per-
verse tendency to be long. Instead of
manfully arresting himself till a better
time, the poor screamer screams on, hop
ing to drive himself as we'll as his hear
ere into better mood, but only making
bad enough worse. Wesley admonish-
es his itinerants against this fault. We
all know his famous letter to John King:
Scream no more at the peril of your
soul !" He prescribed good rules (and
they are still in the Discipline.) Against
such defects, Methodism requires vow
from its preachers that they will ~''not
preach too long nor too loud" But the
problem, What is too long or too loud
is, happily, left to every mans own de.
termination, OF there would be immense
havoc made of the venerable Discipline

In late address before the Farmers
Club of Princeton, Mass, DR.. Nathan
Allen said that ccoraing to the registra-
ton report of deaths in Massachusetts,,
published now for about thirty years,
and preserved with more accuracy and
completeness than anywhere else in the
country. the longest age is found to OBJ
tain in agricultural life. In the ten
different occupations as given in these
reports, the cultivation of the earth
stands as class at the head, reaching
on an average, the age of 65 years, while
that of the next class, merchants, is only
40 years, and that of mechanics of all
kinds, about As years, and that of shoe
makers, about A years. Thus, there is
an advantage Of about fifteen years on
the side of the farmers, as compared
with merchants, and they reach an av-
erage age but little short of three
score years and ten.

WATER IN THE HoUsE.-Let nobody
be deferred from bringing water into
his house by any fears of failure and
perplexity. You might just as well
stop the circulation of blood in the body
because it is subject to arrangement, as
to refuse the circulation of water in the
house because, now and then, a pipe
overfows, and your frescoes are ruined.
Good workmen will prevent any such
accident, but if they cannot, give up
your frescoes; do not give up your life
blood When | see the farm-houses,
the diaries, the kitchens, whose only
source of supply is the well in the yard,
or the hogshead at the back door, and
think how life would be heightened and
sweetened if all this heavy, and hard
and slow water bringing could be sup
planted by the turn of a screw, | Won
der that we do not manage to introduce
it, somehow, into our marriage contracts.
What an increase of vital force would
ensue; what diminished demand for
divorce what strengthening and up
building of the family bond, if a girl
should refuse to marry until there was
an inexhaustible supply of water, at
least in the kitchen. A house without
water-works, ought to be considered as
incomplete as a house without doors,
and as incomplete in the country as in
the city.-Gail Hamilton.

A MONSTER DUG UP.

The farm of Mr.. Andrew Mitchell.
about one mile from Clisyille, N. Y, is,
and has been for weeks, visited by very
many people. The attraction is the
huge and almost entire skeleton of a
mastodon, which has been found by
plecemeal IN a swamp on his land since
January last, and which has been put
together by professor from Boston,
Mass. The farm which has so suddenly
become famous was purchased by Mr..
Mitchell, some time since, and in Janu-
airy he hired man to dig muck from a
swamp to place on the uplands, he him.
self being engaged in New York. The
man had excavated to the depth of four
feet when he came upon an enormous
bone shaped like rib. He stopped
work and informed Mr.. Mitchell of his
discovery, who thinking it must have
belonged to some monstrous animal di-
rected that deeper and more extended
digging be done. At a depth of fifteen
feet the pelvis, head and other large
bones were found Search has been con-
tinued until almost the entire skeleton
has been exhumed, and the scientific
gentleman from Boston says it is much
larger than the famous remains in the
Boston Museum, which was also found
in this county, and which was the larg-
est known specimen of this extinct man.
malta. The skeleton is in barn on
Mr.. Mitchell's farm, and no train stops
at this station but brings numbers of GU
rious or scientifically inclined persons
on their way to view the monster. The
upper jaw and main portion of the head
weighs about five hundred pounds, and
measures three feet seven inches across
the top. There are four teeth in the
upper jaw, two on each side. The back
teeth extend seven inches along the jaw
bone and are four inches across The
openings where the tusks have been are
three feet and eight inches deep and
eight inches in circumference. The ver-
tebre was found in forty pieces, but ly-
ing all together, while the pelvis was
taken out whole and uninjured. The
channel where the spinal cords lay when
the monster was alive is five inches in
circumference. Among the missing
bones are the tusks, lower jaw-bone, anc
those of the hind legs. One bone of g
leg that has been found weighs alone
over $50 pounds. When the skeleton i:
reconstructed it will measure fourteen
feet from the bottom of its feet to the
top of its head, and over twenty-five feet
from head to tail-Er.

It tends to softening and weakening of

CARE OF CALvEs.-A celebrated Irish
farmer gives this advice to one young in
business: ''As breeder, you must be
careful not to lose the calf-fesh. If you
do so by starving the animal at any time
of his growth, you lose the cream-the
covering of flesh so much priced by all
our retail butchers Where do all the
scraggy, bad-feshed beasts come from
that we see daily in our fat markets;
and what is the cause of their scraggi-
ness ? It is because they have been
stinted and starved at some period of
their growth. If the calf-fesh is once
lost, it can never be regained. A great
deal of tallow may be got internally by
high feeding, but the animal can never
again be made one that will be priced by
the great retail butcher
