BLOWING FOR THE SETTLEMENT" or

and ran it myself" said a shrewd but dissipated
Wisconsin lawyer. "a few of us Americans
came here early. We wanted TO get in decent,
industrious settlers and keep the rowdies out.
So said, a Sunday school will draw the folks
we want. It will be the best and cheapest way
to blow for the settlement They all agreed 10
it. There wasn't a soul of us that pretended to
have grain of piety. So they pitched upon
me TO carry out the plan. | did it, sending to
Mr.. Rice, of the American Sunday school union,
for library, aud ran the school all summer.
1t did the blowing for us splendidly. Several
Christian families came in, and as they had
better stock Of piety handed the Sunday school
over to them. 1t was grand thing for u.s. We
secured good moral settlement. In fact, sir, il

A sharp story is told of professor In

sharp story is told Of a professor In an
eastern divinity school who was accustom-
ed to criticise the devotional efforts which
were required Of the students periodically.
One morning one of the victims, being pro-
ficient in short hand, was moved to take
down the professors own opening prayer
verbatim, and having written II out he
handed II in for criticism. The professor
came down on his own work with a VEN
geance, bufieted it, treated It shamefully
rldiculed its false rhetoric, inveighed a.
gainst its poor syntax, severely censured
its general incongruity, aud wound up by
declaring, substantially, that the author
thereof was mighty poor hand at pray
er. OF course the student informed him
that he had been mangling his own oil,
spring, and since that day less sweeping
style of criticism has obtained in that par,
ticular college.

Longevity is an inherited quality, as
much as the make Of the body, or the size
of the brain. Sir William Herschel, the
greatest astronomer of his age, lived eigh-
ty-four years; his son, Sir John, died at
seventy-nine; his aunt Caroline, was nine
eighty; many similar cases can be given
where persons of the connection lived to a
great old age. But descendants of long
lived persons should only calculate on liv-
ing as long themselves by living pretty
much in the same manner; regularly, tenn
perately, equally; cultivating especially,
serenity of mind, deliberation of thought
and action; avoiding as much AS possible
shocks and bodily exposure to hardships
aud to all extremes. The tortoise over
took the hare long before the close of tho
day; prudent, thoughtful, careful people,
who hold on the equable tenor of their
way, far outlive the quick, the thoughtless,
the nervous and unsteady. But longevity
may be cultivated by life of steady indus
try, of habitual temperance and regularity,
combined with the conscientious perform
ance of all the duties of life.

BRsUTIFrE.vG E.sH.us,

Great progress has boon made within tho
last twenty-five years among the farmers
OF the country, not only in making their
ARMS more productive, but in making
them more attractive. This in a large
measure, Is the result of prosperous farm
Ing. Those who had debts TO pay, did not
feel able TO expond much in ornamenting
their places; but since they have freed
themselves from this burden, they have
been more disposed 10 attend to the appear
ance of things.
There has been, also, an advance in taste
There are not so many now, as formerly,
who decry all attention to the ornamental
as waste of time and money. This race
of niggardly and boorsh men is fast dying
out. Increasing intelligence, tho circula-
ton of agricultural reading, the formation
of agricultural societies the infusion of q
larger element of educated and cultivated
men into the profession, have had power
ful influence in securing moro attention to
the esthctics Of farming, instead of having
everything expended for mere pecunary
returns. And this is a great advance. II
ennoblos the pursuit Of the farmer. Man
Is creature of taste and not a mere grub;
and he who neglects TO cultivate and to
crafty this element in his nature, degrades
himself Any one may form pretty COR
rect estimate OF the intellectual, IL not the
moral state of his neighbors, by simply
looking over their farms. The one who
allows his buildings and lands TO lie in n
sloveny state, when he has the means of
improving them, may be money-loving,
but he will also DO slovenly man with no
elevating instincts.
1t is great mistake to suppose that mon
ey spent In reasonably improving the APP
pearance of place is thrown away. 1t
may be doubted whether there Is any more
direct method of increasing its pecuniary
value. Certainly its market value will de-
pend very much upon its outward appear
ance. Tasteful and well-painted buildings,
well-arranged yards and gardens with neat
fences, shade trees properly disposed, good
farm fences and cleanly-kept folds, will
set off farm to great advantage and make
an amazing difference when it comes to be
sold. And even If 1t be not sold, these
things will add amazingly to the enjoy
ment of ii by its possessor, If he be not
blind TO everything but the dollar.
Every man, too, owes it 10 the community
in which he is living 10 contribute to gen.
eral reputation and to public enjoyment,
by making all his surroundings as attract
i've as possible. There is such thing as
paying too much attention to the outside
and to show; but there is reason in all
things, and a measure oftime and attention
and expense should be devoted by every
one to making his farm and his home more
attractive every year tina, he lives.-N. Y.

PAINLESS EXTRACTION OF TEETH.-Dr.
A. G. Castle dental COsmos) observes that
he has for thirty years adopted the plan Of
obtunding or benumbing the extremities
of the temporal nerves, for painless exirac-
ton Of teeth from their sockets, with com
plete success, never having used or coun-
tenanced the exhibition Of chloroform,
ether, or nitrous oxide gas for this minor
surgical operation. The benumbing, or
mechanical dnesthesid, of the temporal
branches of nerves, obtunds the whole
nerve TO a sufficient extent 10 allow the
teeth to be removed, with sensation so
slight that If not attending special surgi-
cal operation, II would scarcely be noticed
by the patient. One of two modes may be
adopted. BY application of leo to the tenn
Piles, which Is somewhat distressing, the
sensation of cold striking deeply. The
other, to which he gives the preference, Is
done by an assistant, with each of his mid
die fingers pressing with persistent firm
ness into the IOssd or hollow behind the
ridge or the temporal bone, which forms
the external bone circle orbit of the eye.
Pressure for one minute is all that is neccs-
sary. The practice Is as simple as 1t is
harmless, and leaves no after unpleasant
sensation to annoy the patient. 1t Is an in
stinctive method aften adopted by people
themselves, who press their temples with
their fingers to relieve themselves temper
arily o. the acute paroxysms of nervous
headache. This temporary pressure, with
sufficient force, Is all that is required to re-
move teeth panless,y.
