THE SUPREME oursr1os.-Health is

The SUPREME QUESTION. Health is
the most important of earthly blessings,
and therefore the nervous anxiety OF the
sick to ascertain the relative merits OF
the various medicines in use is not sur
prising. Within the last two years
many thousands Of invalids have aban-
doned the preparations of the pharma-
copolist for the remedy introduced by
DR.. Walker Of California, under the
somewhat eccentric name of VINEGAR
BTrERs. That this new vegetable med.
icine is winning golden opinions Of all
sorts Of people" is beyond a doubt.
The accounts We hear of its extraordin-
airy effects in eases Of chronic dyspepsia,
rheumatism, liver complaints, malarious
fevcrs, nervous prostrations, and many
other distressing diseases, certainly JUS
tify the popularity which it has every
where acquired.
DR.. Walker claims for his specific a
remedial power over all disorders that
do not involve an irreparable destruc-
ton of bone and fibre, and results so
far appear to have justified the claim.
In this age of wonders we are not dis
posed to deny the possibility Of any
phenomena not directly at variance with
the laws Of nature; and as it is held by
many psychologists that all maladies
proceed from the same generic cause,
we see no reason for the incredulity
with which some people regard the idea
of a universal medicine. Or. Walkers
preparation seems destined to be uni
versally approved.

Hold on, Father Time, you are going too gas,

To pick up your stitches, the best Of your riches,
Az fast as you ravel them out?
Why couldn't you stop for an hour or two.
And give uB q chance TO take breath?
And not go OF this pace, az II life were race,
And you must DO in at the death
Those dear little minutes ara tired, I know,
30 long and steady they've run
And the seconds-tick, tick, goes their double quick
Are wishing the drill was most done.
No matter how early or late | may toll,
No matter how high I may climb,
The days wi Il go on gro my duties ara done,
For I can't get ahead Of old Tinlel

The Old English Breeds Of Sheep.

The Old English Breeds Of Sheep.
The Norfolk sheep were indigenous
in the countries OF Norfolk and Suffolk.
The horns were large and spiral the
bodies long; the loins narrow with a
high back and thin chine the legs long,
black or gray. They were Of a wild,
rowing disposition, and not easily con
fined within any but strong Enclosures,
The wool Of the original breed was
short, and the fleece weighed from two
to two and a half pounds.
The agile form Of these sheep, cna-
bling them to move over n large space
Of ground with little labor, was n vast
advantage to the old Norfolk farmers,
many Of whom were possessed Of large
tracts of h~eathland, which they had no
means Of bringing into cultivation ex-
cept by the assistance Of the fold. Mr..
Marshall charactari2es them, in his nc
count Of the Norfolk husbmdry, as be-
ing singularly well adapted to the soil

that country, thriving upon heath and

How to Trap Rats.

The best AMI cheapest way 10 catch
rats that have ever known, is to select
the place most frequcnted by them, and
take n common post auger and bore n
hole in the ground from six to eight
inches in diameter and three feet deep.
Remove all the earth that has been
excavated, and all straw or sticks
entirely away, leaving the other sur
roundings as near as possible the way
you found them. If the weather is dry
and it IL hard for the rats to get water,
pour n little around the trap; if there is
plenty OF water, put n very little wheat
flour around it. You now have one of
the best rat traps evcr known. In their
wanderings at night for food and water,
many OF the rats not seeing the trap
will fau into it, and raising Il crv,
others coming to their relief will fall in
also. have seen rs high as sixteen
caught in n night, among which were
all sizes, from the commSn mouse to the
full grown rat. When they are oncc in,
it is impossible for them to escape, MS
they can neither dig, climb nor leap
ont.
To get them out of the trap, take n
small stick and place Oh tho end of it n
large wire with a sharp point, made in
the shape of an arrow head. This,
when stuck in them, will hold them
until you can carry them AWAY some
distance from the trap to kill them.
Try the above plan, and if you do not
succeed IN catching rats / shall never
say ''rat trap" to you again. Central
Christian Adu0cate.
They tell of a young iady in West
chester County, named Louise, who
thought mournfully Of the leap-year fast
going out and of certain hopes she had
cherished that would go ont with it.
Finally, growing desperate, she went to
ono Bonnie Hops, and, holding a re-
volver to his ears, made an elaborate
proposal, Bonnie consented with really
unnecessary speed and energy but
when the girl was gone, went away from
that locality and has not since been
seen by Louise or any of his friends.
The girl, however, may have the conso-
lation of suing him for n breach OF
promise and recovering, of course, DAM
ages commensurate with his little prop
city.
