What she Wanted at SCheneVuS.

A conductor on the Albany
road, who is well known in Bing
hampton. met with an incident o
few days age, which lie does not
like 10 hear much about. On his
train was one Of those nervous,
tidgcty old ladies who are always
expecting or hearing Of some ca
lamity. She was exceedingly
deaf, and charged the conductor
repeatedly to be sure and inform
her when she reached Schenevus,
and this he faithfully promised to
do. AT each station he shouted
the name, and at each shout she
called out to some passenger
and wanted TO know if the con.
ductor SAID Schenevus. Every
time this official passed he re-
ceivcd a new charge and gave a
new promise, but Tor all tins he
forgot to attend to the deaf old
lady when he reached that impor-
tant station, and she was carried
beyond about three miles, when
the official saw that she was still
Oh board. AS it was his fault, he
ordered the train TO be backa ad to
the station, and shouted ont
Schenevus!" in the cid lady's
car.
"Are you sure this is Scheme
vusl' inquired the old lady.
~ es, yes--Schenevus. Hurry
out now."
sis it really Scheuevusl" again
asked the old lady, fumbling at
the same time in her bag.
"Yes, yes; hurry, please" SAID
the conductor impatiently.
"La, sake-! sir, I'm going clean
throngh!" replied the old LADY;
but my doctor said it would be
time to take some more medicine
when l reached Schenevus, that's
all"
Now, If any one wishes ts sec
an angry man, just say "Schene-
vus" to that conductor. .guT

Where Did the Rich Man Do.

Little johnny was preparing
for Sunday school, situated somc
distance away, when the mother
saw one Of the ncigh6ors approach
ing in vehicle. This neighbor
by the way, was called ''rhe
Rich Man," being both wealthy
kind.hearted and liberal to the
poor. Johnny ran ont, and the
rich man took him in,his velii le,ss
he was going right past the Sun
day School. 1t was very hot
day so Johnny took off Ills shoes
and stockings to keep himself
cool.
When they arrived the exercises 70
had already begun, and as the
man was going to church about a
mile beyond, and had agreed to
call for Johnny on his return, he
concluded not to put on his shoes
and stockings. 30 he ,ripped
lightly into the school, and tho
man drove away toward the
church.
His teacher was iust hearing

Johnny was not acquainted witty

Marriage and the Potential Sex.
[From the Science Of Health.

The principal here annunciated
involves the connuJial relationship
as essential to its full operation.
Celibacy is drag upon female
vitality. Premature death is in
duced by it; and such diseases as
cancer and consumption, arc pro-
moted by it to an incredible de-
gree. In The city OF Philadelphia;
in the eleven years extending
from 1861 to 1872, there were 100
women dying Of career to 43
men; and of persons under 20
years Of age, but II males died Of
consumption to 100 females.
This disease is he most d,struc.
tive of any to human life; and 1t
is especially go in the Eastern
States, whcro is the greatest ex-
cess Of female population. In
convent life, there are more un-
healthy women than men. "Fe-
cundation and pregnancy act as
fortifiers in the woman" Burdach
asserts; Sand the mothers Of nu-
merous children are in general
the mast healthy and live the
longest; the sterile woman is more
unhappy than the childless man" "
DR.. j. V. Smith also declares tha;
elite is extended by the effects of
pregnancy; and consequently such
periods arc substantially added to
the dnralion..ot the lite. This may
not be, and we think is not the
whole truth in the matter; but il
is the truth as far as it goes. Men
as well as women live longer in
connubial life; hence there is a
protounGer reason.
But if there are millions more
females in the world than mates,
especially among adults, and the
disparity in numbers is steadily
increasing, as has been asserted,
the conclusion will be hard to es-
cape that at a somewhat remote
future period the male sex will
have entirely forsakcn this planet,
leaving only woman. We might
then expect the paradox to be
realized, that they will agree to
one proposition. The assertion
OF the Quaker woman's sermon
would foreshadow their action.
1T greatly surpr seth me-" said
she, "that tho young men will 20
after the young women, when, il
they would but remain quietly
at home, the young women would
come after them" In case that
the men all leave this world, VIC
suspect that the women too would
leave, in quest Of their mates.

To tho unfortunate victim of
drunkenness we recommend the
following cure. A mixture made
up as follows, and taken in oman.
titles equal to an ordinary dram,
and as often as tho desire for
strong drink returns, will cure the
worst case OF drunkenness: Sui
plate of iron, five grains; pepper
mint water, eleven drachms; spir-
its of nutmeg, one drachm. This
preparation acts as a tonic and
stimulant, and partially supplies
the place ofthe accustomed liquor,
and prevents the absolctc physical
and moral prostratiou that follows
from sudden breaking off from
the nse of stimulating drinks. II
is to be taken in quantities equal
to an ordinary dram, and as often
us the desire OF u dram returns.
