DR. r Il. Trail, in the Phil ,delphia

says that we are approaching the
climax OF a pestlential period. From
1880 to 1885 the planets Jnpil er, Sa-
turn. Uranus and Neptune will APP
pIoach the earth nearer than they
have been tor 500 years Whence
er any one Of tue four have come
near enough for u 20 fee, its |, flu
ence pes Hence, famine and extremes
OF heat and cold have been the re-
suit. Now we are TO have the infiu :
ence of the four combined, and he
predicts that in seven years from
now all manner of evil which grows
mt of atmospheric changes will be
upon as. To lessen the calamity the
world is urged TO use the strictest
sanilary measures, aud by heal h and
cleanliness counterfeit the effects OF
our unweleOme neigh00rs. The
world is so much better able to care
for itself than it was 200 or 800 years
ago, and by care we may avert much
of the danger. To the following
classes be gives very cold comfort :
The dissipated, the glutton, the de-
bauchee may calculate on being
among the first victims. Young men
who devitalize themselves by tobac-
co.uslng, and young ladies' who de-
stroy one half Of their breathing ca

Iacing, will never survive the perihe-
lion Of all the large planets of the

For some time this fun was taken in

The Instinct and Motive of Dress.

1t is utterly useless to try to make
anything of human ilk believe that
dress is not of primary Importance,
that beauty unadorned has the slightest
chance, because it is not true in fact,
however excellent in theory. Let a
pretty woman neglect the amenities of
dress, leave all the accessories of hair,
lace, or ribbon adornment uncared for,
and so about limp, loose, and dowdysh,
with only her natural charms to coun-
terbalance, and see how little chance
she stands for admiration. A syste-
matically cut, gracefully hanging dress :
bright knot, artistically disposed; a
soft, delicate bit of lace, makes all the
difference in the world in the effect of a
woman produces upon the senses. It is
a remarkable fact that, while men make
women's folly in dress the target at
which to let fly their sharpest witticisms,
it is for man alone that she INDUCES in
these extravagances. Since the far
away times of the Aspasis, and before, m
deed, of the Livis, Du Barrys, Pompa-
dours, Ct. ats., down TO the representa-
tives of Mother Eve, to-day, women are
what the Pericles, Aleibiades, kings,
emperors, and poets of their periods
make them. Men and women may exist
for each other but it is in an inverse
ratio, women living great deal more
Cor men than the converse. To look
ones best for some lordly eye is then atu-
raj instinct of every loving heart To
have fair, healthy appearing complex
ion; round, full, yet plant figure /;
soft, white, shapely hands glossy, well
cared for and fashionably arranged hair;
are all of them as much necessities TO a
true woman as the breath she draws,
the food she eats, for indeed to he out
of the fashion is to be ont Of the world.

Suggestions Tor summer.

1t is Of great importance that the system should
be in a vigorous condition when the hot weather
commences. The effects Of a high temperature
upon an enfeebled frame are always more or less
disastrous. The loss OF substance and the decIen-
sion OF nervous power, Occss Toned by excessive
heat. can only be compensated by the active.
healthful, and regular exercise OF all the bodily
functions by which the waste Of nature is replen-
ished AID the vital energies renewed. The great
utility Of Hostetier's Stomach Bitters, as means
Of tening, invigorating and regulating the organs
Ofthe body is universally acknowledged. AS ton
&c it stimulates the Tagging appetite and accelerates
digestion corrective it neutralizes acidity of
the stomach and relieves hatuIency; as an alter
tive and mild aperient it regulates the liver and
the bowles; snodyne it promotes tranquil
sleep; as wholesome stimuiant it imparts firm
ness and elasticity TO the relaxed and trembling
nerves, and as a blood depureat it puunes the vi
tai stream. The value of such q specific to the
weak and debllitated Is beyond all estimate. To
invalids wllted down by the suitTy heat OF mid
summer, II Is AS refreshing and yltaliZing the
cool night dew TO the sun-scOrched flowers. Com
posed OF vegetable elements oHly with a basis Of
pure difusiVe stimulent, il is safe and gatable
well as medicinal. In fever and ague districts. and
wherever the natural conditions are conducive TO
guard against malarious Infection and the speed-
est remedy for Intermittent and remittent fevers.
