Hearth and Home says in defense of a
much abused article of female apparel;
''The corset, however, distributes both the
weight and pressure of the clothing over
the strong muscles of the hips, and as it is
less yielding than the flesh, it obViates the
necessity of tight Wristbands altogether.
The corset, properly used, in other words,
furnishes the very best remedy for tight
lacing, particularly now that taper waists
lave gone out 6t fashion.

The type of this disease varies
from year to year, and every great
epidemic has traits of its own, but
the main features are the same, anG
an experienced and competent ply
sician infallibly recognizes these in
twenty-four hours. True, it is i'm.
possible for the most skillful to dis.
tinguish between these symptoms and
those. of the Dengue, or "broken:

tar) finds rigor or slight chill creep
ing over him, followed by pains in the
head and back, and fever, which rises
rapidly. The pains become violent,
excruciating, and the pulse ranges
from 1O8 to 100. The tongue is not
coated or fufred, but assumes a red.
CLASSY appearance, and often swells
to far beyond its natural size; the
gums begin to enlarge, and black
deposit settles on the teeth. The
secretions of the body are deranged,
and often the bladder becomes dry
as a powder horn, for the kidneys
fail to perform their functions. Woe
to the patient when such is the case,
for the urinary acid is almost sure to
be carried to the brain, producing
the widest delirium, and if not quick
ly relieved, issuing in speedy and ter
rible death. The stomach is disor-
dered, and often there is a DISPOSE
ton to reich; the nerves become pre-
ternaturally excited, and the restless
ness is indescribable, while the eyes
are painfully sensitive to light and
the ears to sound. In some cases
the lips, the whole face, grow red as
crimson. Usually the full, corded
pulse throbs with sledge-hke stroke
'he other symptoms unabated-for
'eventy-two hours, when the fever
ieclines-the pulse still remaining
quick, but like the trembling vibra-
ion of thread. By this time the
patient is SO reduced that he can
scarcely lift his head, or indeed raise
IN eye-lid. This is the critical per-
cd, and, in fact, forward from this

;onvaleseDce takes place.
Yellow fever is sometimes thought
o be high tyre of the bilious, but
here could be no greater mistake,
or countless autopsies have shown
he liver to be in good condition; in
Iced, I have not heard of a case
where it was seriously implicated.
The disease is snGi ge'aeris, having
title or no kinship with other malar-
Gus affections, and is distinctly a |
'oison of the blood. Hence the
onstant tendency to extravasation of
he blood into the gums, eyes, ears,
tomach; for in some severe cases
'lood is thrown out from every
'pening of the body. 1t is often
orced in large quantities into the
tomach, and when this is thrown off
he black vomit occurs TEx.

Worstest kind o. sin;
Got to learn to work, l s'pose-
Might as well begin.
So hemmed towel
Real well, mamma said
Had dre'ful time though,
Losin' out my fred;
For somefin' allied the needle,

Till mamma took and tied it

Twas dre'ful thankful
When the thing was done,
Cause then l sewed for dolly,
Made little dwess,
And made it just as nice, too,
As you could, l guess.
Made it wiz two ruffies,
Overskirt and basque;
Now, what more, wonder, r--..
Could dolly ask?
Twas much more interestin'
Than hemmln' towels, too.
Iwonder why the GOOD things
Are so hard to do?
Then I pared some apples,
.Helpin' Kate, the cook; -
Then / read my lesson
In that old spellin' book.
Now, speIlin' books are awful,
Ev'rybOdy knows, ... -t.. d
Just made to try our patience.
Good for that, I s'pose.

Hear my mamma say,
''Didn't 'spect, this mornin,'
Such busy day;
Seems to me l never had
Quite so much to dor
Tell you can sympafze-
Feel just that way too!D

NEW AND OLD.

New little feet
Patter on the floor;
New little faces
Peep through the door;
New little souls
Have entered into life;
New little voices
Speak in love or strife;
New little fingers
Tightly clasp cur own;
New little tendrils
Round onr hearts have grown.
Still the old voices
Echo in ones ear,
And the old faces
Hallowed are and>dear;
Still the old friends
Who have passed away,
Live in our affection
Love has no decay;
And the old words,
Spoken long ago,
Keep the heart tender,
Make the tears flow.
Thus new and old
Mingle in one,
Each has its blessing;
And when life is done,
Old faces, old friends
viii meet us again.
Treasures long buried
We shall regain
All that is lovely,
All that is true,
Will live on forever,
The Old aud the New.

DR.. TUTT's PILLS are composed of many ingredi-
ents. Prominent among them are Sarsaparilla and
Wild Cherry, united TO act together; the one,
through its admixture with other substances pnri-
fying and purging; while the other is Strengthening
the system. Thus these Pills are at the same time
q tonic and a cathartic, desideratum long sought
for by medical men, but never before discovered
In other words, they do the work of two medicines
and do 1t much better than any two we know of, for
they remove nothing from the system but impuri-
ties that while they purge they also strengthen
aud hence they cause no debility and followed
by no reaction.
cDR. TUTT's PILLS have a wonderful influence on
the blood. They not only purify without weaken
ing IL, but they remove ali nOxiOus particles from
tbe chyle befare it is converted into fluid, and thus
makes impure blood an utter impossibility. AS
there is no debiitation, so there is no nausea or
sickness attending the operation of this most excel
lent medicine which never strains or tOrtures the
digestive organs, but causes them to work in per-
fectly natural manner; hence persons taking them
do not become pale and emaciated, but on the con-
lrary while all impurities are being removed, the
combined action of the Sarsaparila and Wild Cher
ry purifes and invigorates the body, and robust
state Of health is the result of their united action
