Common Sense Hints.

Not few of the physical ills to which
flesh Is heir is the result of nothing to
do, or, at least, are made worse thereby.
1t matters little what pain we have, if
we are not conscious of it, if such an ex-
preston may be allowed. With bodies
as full of sensations as are those of most
us, there Is plenty to give US uneasiness
If we set down to thiuk of them. Those
who have little or no work to busy
themselves about, have full time to note
each ache and pain, aud to cultivate it,
no matter how young and tender, to a
falI-grown one There are hosts of peo-
pie who would feel very badly If they
only had time to think how they feel.
As 1t is, they don't know that they have
a headache or backache or any other
kind of ache till they stop work. And
often il is the case that the ache becomes
indignant at waiting so long for recog-
milton, and leaves before it is recognized
at all. 1t is good think to slight these
unwelcOme visitors, and it can be done
with the best grace when one is busy.
If these ills are courted and petted, they
come to stay, and finally come to be
constant and uncomfortable compan-
ions. No small share of the sickness of
a very large class of people would be
cupatiOn demanding attention and eff
fort. Besides having time to think
about their symptoms, and thus max
ing them worse by the peculiar infiu-
ence of the mind over the body, they
also have time to begin doctoring, which
often is the worst thing that can be
done.
1t is serious question whether more
diseases are not created or aggravated
by the doses of medicine that people
pour down their throats than are cured
or alleviated thereby. Physicians are
most useful members of society. They
would be more useful if they had the
courage to brave the displeasure of their
patients by telling them they do not
need medicines when such is the case.
Medicines, too, are useful at proper
times and in proper places. The best
place for half that which people take,
| however, is in the slop- bucket or out OF
! the window. The man who is too busy
I TO take medicine is often agreat gamer
/ thereby, especially if he will exercise a
little common sense and denial in refer
ence 10 his diet and his habits gener-
ally. Occupation is the best doctor foI
people with little to do.
/ How IL may have been with Adam we
! do not pretend to say; neither will We
theoriZe upon how IL might have beer
with his descendants, IL he and his wifi
/ had not tasted forbidden fruit; but as i
| ls, work saves the sons and daughters o
this ancient pair from many ills the!
otherwise would suffer, and, while som'
are overworked and worked to death
there are not few who would be hap
pier, more healthy, and live longer,
they had more to do. Charles Laml
once said, 'FThe best thing a man cai
have to do is-nothing. And next &
this, good works, perhaps" But afte
trying it year or two, he changed I'm
tune and wrote, "Overwork is bette
than no work"

Living in a Light-HOuse.

Lighthouses are strange aud lonely
homes for men to live in. Some of
them are perehed out on the ocean, with
the land scarcely i'm sight, and the rest
less sea forever beating and moaning
around them. The keepers of these do
not see other human faces than their
own in a quarter of year. Night and
day they are on the watch, gladdened
awhile by sail that appears for little
while and then floats out of sight, below
the horizon. They might be out of the
world, for all they knew of its concerns,
its losses and gains, its battles and its
victories, the changes that each day
brings forth. There are other light
houses situated on the coast, but so re-
mote that they are never visited and
others that are surrounded by the eivili-
cation of fishing village, and on sum-
mer days are crowded by fashionable
people from the neighbOring watering
places. But for the most part, except
in the approaches to fOurishing ports,
they are built out on the farthest margin
of the land, OH faT-reaching capes and
peninsuIas, on irOn-bOund headlands, on
detached rocks aud sandy shoals. The
light-ships are still worse off, anchored
as they are in stormy waters, and for
ever rolling, plunging, leaping in per-
petual unrest, clipped of their wings,
while other vessels are passing and re-
passing, shortening sail as they enter
port and spreading the canvas as they
start out anew.
The light-ships are manned by men
alone, but in the lighthouses the keep
ers are allowed to have their wives, and
children are born unto them and
brought up with the sea and the sea-
birds and the distant ships for CON-
panions. Many pretty story or poem
has been woven about children living
in this fashion. They learn the secrets
and wonders of the sea, and feel glad
when it sings softly Oil the calm days and
sad when its bosom is ruffied and white
in the storms. Their little heads are
! full of strange fancies about nature, and
/ / do not believe they could understand
or enjoy the life you and lead at home.
/ Somehow cannot think of them as real
children. They seem more like water
/ sprites that have their homes in the blue
depths among other delicate plants that
! blossom there. But they have lessons
to learn from school-bOOks, and a great
many things to do in their fathers
household. Their life, with all its ro-
mances. is not one of idleness, you may

An Old Adage.

"Never cry for split milk, " is an adage
venerable for its age, and full OF wisdom
rs applicable To great many things.
Your favorite dog has suddenly disap-
peared your most valuable horse has
fallen lame the frost has nipped your
corn and killed your early beans the
midge has ruined your wheat, and your
rye doesn't fill well your new COW, that
cost Sl00, has kicked over the pail just
as it was filled with warm, rich milk (;
don't cry for split milk-what the use =?
1t is necessary to your happiness to bear
with philosophic unconcern the una
voidable and almost innumerable little
ills which beset every human pathway.
The wisdom of the maxim which We
have quoted, however, is incomplete un-
less it be coupled with another, not
usually laid down in connection with it,
which is this Don't spill your milk. II
the milk be spilled through your fault,
and you apply the maxim not to cry for
split milk, you simply substitute culpa-
ble negligence with foolish indifier-
ence.
When any evil or unhappiness befalls
you, look calmly at the causes and Occa-
sion of it, and see whether more caution
on your part might not have avoided
them and If you find they might, then
be more careful to shun the producing
causes i'm the future.
1t is not worth while TO waste the pre-
ciOus moments of this short life in idle
regrets. On the other hand, it is not
well to go on repeating the follies from
which one has already suffered, or re-
newing indiscretions which are sure to
bring renewed penalties.
