TuRNING OYRR NEM LEAF.

There is Wonderous difference in
people, as regards the propensity for
turning over a new leaf. 1t is odd
that, for the most part, they who have
power of will and self-restraint enough
enough to keep good resolutions are
least in the habit of making them,
and appear most content to live on a
lower plane, without aspiration /;
while, on the other hand, they who
are most sensible of personal short
comings, and most appreciative of bet
ter modes of living, Oftenest break
good resolutions, and seldomest reach
the standard they eovet. Thus stur-
diness or stability of character is fire.
quently earthly by instinct, and inca
pable of that volatility which, on its
part, can never walk steadily onward,
but is always on series of excursion
ary skips and hops upward to a high
er life, whence it as regularly 'tiOun-
ders and fops down, bruised but not
tanned, to the clay. Goethe says that
persons quite unstable and incapable
of all improvements Frequently ac-
cuse themselves in the bitterest man
ner, confessing and deplOring their
faults with extreme ingenuousness,
though they possess not the smallest
power within them to retire from that
course along which the irresistible
tendency of their nature is dragging
them forward" Nobody need be
down-hearted at this dietum. Some
men seem to be governed by fate, be
cause they have no will worth speak
ing of or at least give no proof of any;
while others apparently have a will
free of fate, so strongly does it act on
circumstances; and If it be answered
that this strong and free will is itself
form of fate, at least it is one the
possessors can neither fear nor COM
plain of.
Many lads have such practical views
of life, Joined with such self conscious
and self esteem, as to mature at once
They imagine themselves grown men
before their bearus are OUT in their
elders they see only their peers, and
hence feel the burdens OF life already
in youth. These are they who be-
come famous betimes-great traders,
money lenders, railroad builders,

THE USES OF LMMONIA.

The Country Gentleman thus dis
courses :-Spirits of Ammonia are
nearly as useful in housekeeping as
soap, and its cheapness brings It with
in the reach of all. For many house
hold purposes it is invaluable; yet its
manifold uses are not as generally
known as they should be. 1t is most
refreshing agent at the toilet table (;
few drops in a basin of water will
make better bath than pure water,
and if the skin is oily, it will remove
all glossiness and also disagreeable
odors. Added to q foot bath, it en-
tirely absorbs all noxious smell so Of
ten arising from the feet in warm
weather, and nothing is better for
cleansing the hair from dandruff and
dust. For the headache it is also a
desirable stimulant, and frequent
Limitations of its pungent odors will
often remove catarrhal cold. For
cleansing paint it is very useful. Put
teaspoOnful of ammonia to a quart
Of warm soapsuds, dip in q flannel
cloth, and wipe Off the dust and fly
gpecks, grim and smoke, and see for
yourself how much trouble it will
save you. No scrubbing will be need
full. 1t will cleanse and brighten sill.
yer wonderfully; to pint of hot suds
mix teaspoonful of the spirits, dip
in your silver spoons, forks, etc, rub
with brush and then polish on a
chamois skin. For washing mirrors
and windows it is also very desirable;
put few drops of ammonia upon a
piece of newspaper, and you will
readily take off every spot or finger
mark on the glass. 1t will take out
grease spots from any fabric; put on
the ammonia nearly clear, lay blot
ting paper over the place, and press a
hot fiat iron on it for a few moments.
A few drops in water will clean laces
and whiten them nicely; and also
muslins.
For cleaning hair and nail brushes
it is equally good. Put teaspoonful
of ammonia into one pint of warm or
cold water and shake the brushes
through the water when the brushes
look white rinse them in cold water,
and put into the sunshine or some
warm place to dry. The dirtiest of
brushes will come out from this bath
white and clean. There is no better
remedy for heartburn and dyspepsia
and the aromatic spirit of ammonia is
especially prepared for these troubles.
Ten drops of It in a wine glass Of wa
ter are often great relief. The spir-
its of ammonia can be taken in the
same way but it is not as palatable
q dose. Farmers and chemists are
well aware of the beneficial effects of
ammonia on all kinds of vegetation /;
and if you desire your roses, gerani-
ums, fuehias, ETC., to become more
hourishing, you can try it upon them
by adding five or six drops of it to
every pint of warm water that you
give them but don't repeat the dose
oftener than once in every five or six
days, lest you stimulate them too
highly. Rain water is impregpated
with ammonia and thus it WHITES
and refreshes vegetable life. So be
sure and keep large bottle of it in
the house, and have glass stopper
for it, as it Is very evanescent and in
furious to corks, eating them aWay,

HE COULDN'T DRINK WINE.

That was q noble youth who, on be-
ing urged to drink wine at the table
of famous statesman, in Washing

was poor young man, Just beginning
the struggle of life. He brought let

have charmed an anchorite, endeavor-
ed to press il upon him.

lutely, gently repelling the proffered

What picture OF moral grandeur
was that. A poor, friendless youth,
refusing wine at the table of wealthy
and famous statesman, even though
proffered by the fair hands of beau

1t is curious fact, that if the same
letters of the same size precisely are
painted on two boards, the one white
on black ground, and the Other
black on a white ground, the white
letters will appear larger and be read
at greater distance than the black.
This is owing to what is called the ir-
radiation of light. 1t depends on this
that the impression made on the bot
tom of the eye by bright objects ex.
tends little wider thau the actual
portion of the organ struck by the
light, and, invading the space occu-
pied by the darker objects, makes the
brighter appear darker than they

Ar last we have some consolation for
the money paid over to Russia for Alaska.
The San Francisco Bulletin assures US that
coal, iron, and gold abound in Alaska, and
this territory is worth every whit as much
to-day as Arizona. 1t is gratifying to
know this. Now, il there could be some
way invented to equalize the climates of
these two territories, we should be SUI
premely satisfied. Arizona, it will be re-
membered. is the country whose inhabi-
tants send back for their blankets after
they have departed aur enters. and they
find fire and birthstone too cold by compari-
son. Alaska, on the other hand, is the
country where the Christian missionaries
have to represent hell as made Of icebergs
in order to terrify the heathens Of that
severe climate. AS the two territories
now belong to one and the same country,
congress should appoint board of equali-
zation to consult with "Old Probabilities
on the matter.

that the first-class hotels of the day

city any time since it opened was 273, and
the highest 325. During the time the aver

a FINANCIAL NUT.

The treasury Of the United States con-
tains s44, 600, 900 reserve legal tender notes.
These bearIno interest. Thousands of citi-
zens holding government bonds which do
bear interest, would be glad to deposit
them with the treasurer. let the interest
stop and receive the legal tender notes to
circulate. Yet they are refused the privi-
leges!! What would be thought of a
man who should refuse the request Of his
creditor who held a mortgage upon his
property to trade it for a simple note Of
hand bearing no interest? He would be
voted an idiot or crazy man. Yet the
United States does just that, and it is one
Of the sacred mysteries Of our finance.
