Clubbing with ether Papers;

For several years we have offered, in
connection with our own, most of the pub
lications in the country at greatly reduced

do good favor to those who patronize us.
We cannot offer club rates for the NEWS

went home to his boarding house at late
hour one night lately. and thinking to give
his landlady sensation, marked his face
with red keel. He walked into the sit.

fire before the spots were noticed. The
landlady, all absorbed, looked up from
her work in moment, and noticing the
spots on his face, asked, in evident alarm
"Why, Charlie, what on earth is the mat.
ter with your face 2" Don't know" he
replied, shut guess its only the varioloid."
Their was scene better imagined than
described. The landlady was at first par
alyzed with horror, but recovering in
moment, She rushed to the door, opened
it quickly, "Get out of this mighty quick"
said she. 'Get out !" she screamed at
the top Of her voice and, deaf to all ex-
postulation from poor Charlie, she hustled
him out without his overcoat In mo-
ment she opened the door and kicked his
overcoat and cap out, as though afraid TO
touch his clothing with her hands. Char
lie stood out in the cold, completely be-
wldered with the unexpected turn affairs
had taken, when he heard window raised
and gentle voice called him by name.

STUDY OF PHYSIOLOGY FOR WOMEN
Women are the wives aud regulators Of
the domestic households. They also con.
stitute the great mass of our domestic SER
wants. On them depends the proper ven-
tilation Of the rooms, and especially the
sleeping-rooms, in which all mankind on
an average spend one-third of their lives.
Children are too often shut up all day
in crowded nurseries, and, when i'll, are
subjected to numerous absurd remedies
before medical assistance is sent for. Their
clothing is often useless or neglected, the
dictation of fashion rather than of COM
fort and warmth being to frequently at.
