a Cure for Stammering.

DR.. Dio Lewis, in the Philadelphia e" To-
day" says:
Some years ago, a famous professor came
to town, and announced that he could
"cure the worst cases of suffering in ten
minutes without surgical operation" A
friend of ours was an inveterate case, and
we advised him to call upon the wonderful
magician. He called, was convinced by the
testimony exhibited, struck up bargain,
paid the fifty dollars, and soon called at our
office talking as straight as railroad track
We were greatly astonished, and asked
our friend by what miracle he had been SC
strangely and suddenly relieved of his life.
long trouble. He most provokingly inform.
ed us that he had made solemn pledge not
to reveal the process of cure.
We knew two other bad cases-ladies-
and calling upon them, reported what had
come to pass.
They were soon at the professors rooms,
came away greatly elated, raised the hun
dred dollars, went the next day, paid the
cash, and 10 half an hour were ready, had
the question been popped, to say eyes with
out jerk.
We were soon made acquainted with sew
eral other cures quite as remarkable, and
resolved to put on our sharpest wits and wait
upon the magician ourselves
He seemed an honest man, and in two
days We made up our minds to pay him a
large fee, and learn the strange art, with the
privilege of using it to cure whomsoeyer we
would.
Those who had been cured by the profes-
sor, were sOlemnly bound not to reveal the
secret to any one, but our contract gave us
the privilege of using the knowledge as we
pleased.
And now we propose to give the readers
of this Journal simple art which has ena
bled us TO make very happy many unhappy
Stammerers. In our own hands it has often
failed to effect the desired result, but in
three-fourths of the cases which we have
treated the cure has been complete
The secret is simply this: The stammerer
is made to mark the time in his speech, Just
as it is ordinarily done in singing. He is at
first to beat on every syllable. 1t is best at
the first lesson to read some simple compost
ton, like one of David's Psalms, striking
the finger on the knee at every word; then
read in newspaper, beating each syllable
You can beat time by striking the finger
on the knee, by simply hitting the thumb
against the fOrefnger, or moving the large
toe in the boot.
We doubt if the worst case of suffering
could continue long, provided the sufferer
would read an hour or two every day, with
thorough practice of this simple art, observ-
ing the same in his conversation.
As thousands have paid fifty and hun
dred dollars for this secret, we take pleasure
in imparting it to the patrons of this journal.

What a Kitchen Should Be.

To begin with, l would have kitchen
we'll lighted; some, yet a great deal of the
broad, expansive sunlight coming in boldly,
as if it had perfect right to be there
That would, of course, necessitate large win
dows, and then | would give as mucn atten
ton to the ventilation of kitchen as l would
to sleeping room. would have large cir
cular device suspended over the cooking
stove, with hole in the center, and tube
reaching to the top of the house, to carry of
the sayory smells which the process of cook
ing generates, and prevent them from per.
meating the house
For these smells, however savofy and
agreeable, are apt to take away something
from the keenness of our appetite; or, at
least cause us to anticipate something better
than the eality. Then would have a large
sink with permanent soap stone or marble
wash-bowl, for washing the dishes, and an
other tor draining. l would also have an
adjustable pipe leading down the hot water
tank to either of these basins. Besides this,
| would have sundry cupboards and closets
arranged on the wall, so as to be tasteful
and decorative, as well as convenient.

The BIBLE STILL INsPIRED.-The Bible
not only was inspired, but it is so still.
When the burdened heart reads, Come I'M
to Me, and will give you rest, it seems as
if the ink were not dry, and as if the warm
breath of Eternal Love was even now quick
ening and comforting. The Spirit makes
the Scripture Living Word.
The central Presbyterian. [volume] (Richmond, Va.) 1856-1908, 1873-04-30

No SHARP CoRNERs.-The instinct Of
bees in the construction of their cells has
always been an object of wonder to those
who are capable of approaching it. Every
cell has many sides; each side has straight
lines and sharp corners; but never does any
cell present its sharp corner to its neighbor
cell. A soft even side to every neighbor
side. Each fits to each, firm to support, and
yet soft in the contact. No interstices
are left, where filth might accumulate to
annoy and defile. Thus let man meet man
as they tread the crowded path of life. AS
master, as servant, as seller, as buyer, as
entertainer, as guest, as borrower, as lender,
be should ever present to every brother a
side that is at once soft and strong. Faith
fulness to make it firm, and love to make it
soft. Always side to your neighbor that
is at once soft and strong. No sharp corner
of your own selfshness that will pierce your
brother.-ArnOt.

How TO MAKE BOYS GENTLEMEN.-How
many mothers complain that their boys are
not gentlemanly, without ever considering
whether the boys are treated in anywise like
gentlemen. The "bOys" room is too often
cherries, unattractive place, with no toilet
convenienoes, and scarcely such as are ne
cessary. Do not say it is of no use to put
nice things in so untidy place. If you
want to interest boy in keeping himself
aud his room in gentlemanly order, give him
some encouragement to do so, by providing
a little something luxurious and ornamental.
A little will sometimes go great ways

the rod sorest, "EVen so, Father. "

How HARD it is to feel that the power of
life is to be found inside, not outside; in the
heart and thoughts, not in the visible actions
and show; in the living seed, not in the plant
which has no root. How often do men cul-
tivate the garden of their souls just the other
