For .ssA Ne "a Protection against Drouth.
ny PROF. II. e. KEDZIE.

Some may ask why forests are necessary ?
Is not any potion 'ett ia forest 81 much
unproductive capital? And does not "a vi e
economy demand that these unproductive
forests should he cleared up rs soon as the
owner can command the means, and the
whole country be made productive? These
are important questions, and should re-
ceive answers. II trees are OF no service
in the economy Of nature except 10 furnish
fuel and timber, than any surplus beyond
these wants is useless drawback on the
productiveneSs of any country. "Cut 1t
down; why cumbcreth it the ground?"
But there are other lie asous why forests
should be spared, and one is their control
over extreme fluctuations in the rainfall
of any region. The researches of modern
science, accurate and careful observation,
as well as the history of the past, show that
a country abUunling in forests Is more
moist, has a III ore copious aud equable rain
fall, aboundS more in springs and streams,
a nd, as a consequence OF all these, is more
exempt from great and sudden luclua-
lions in temperature, from late irosts in
spring and early fro,ts in the fall.
Thus Egypt, from the earliest period of
history, has been spoken Of as a rainless
region; but since Mahomet Ali has made
his immense Plantations of trees, showers
have become frequent. The controlling in-
hueuce of forests over rain falls, is also
shown by the fact that countries once SUI =
piled with forests, and having abundant
rains and immunity from frost, their forests
having been destroyed, have been scOurged
b; drouth and frost till tho forests were re-
stored, when they once more became fruit
fu. or, if the Inhabitants would not re-
store their protecting forests, the stern
hand of famine threatened 10 wipe out a
race that would not reverence the order of
nature.
Thus the Cape de Verde Islands, so
named from their greenHess, have been
stripped of their forests by their IMPROVE
dent Inhabitants, since which time they
suffer terribly from periodical droughts,
sometimes no rain falling for three years at
time, and $4,000 inhabitants, or one-third
OF the population have persisted. Thus
famine cuts down the inhabitants as pitt
lessly as they chi down the protecting trees.
II has been proposed to replant the forests,
yet such is the ignorance and Incidence of
the inhabitants, that little has boon done
towards restoration, and 1t is probable that
the entire race may he cut of, to be re-
placed by tho who have learned that Tn e
stree of the field IL mans life."

The Lie htnipg Rod NAM MI.take.

Up in Blossburg, the other day, light
ning-rod man drove up in front of hand
some edtice standing in the midst of trees
and shrubs, and spoke TO Mr.. Summers,
who was sitting on tue steps in front. lie
accOsted Summers as the owner Of the resi-
dence, and said
II see you have no lightning rods on the
house."
NO" said Summers.
"Are you going to put any on?'
"Well, hadn't thought of it," replied
Summers.
"You ought to. A tall building like this
is very much exposed. I'd like 10 run
you up one of my rods-twis,ed steel, glass
Tenders, nicke-plated tips, and everything
complete. May I put up one to show your
l will do the job cheap"
Certainly you may, If you want 10.
haven't the least objection" said Summers.
During the next half hour the man had
his ladders up, and his assistants at work,
at the end of that time the job was done.
He called Summers out into the yard TO ad-
mire it. He said to Summers:
"Now, that is all well enough, but if that
other rod put on the other side. There's
nothing like being protected thoroughly"
"Thars true" said Summers sit would
be better"
"Tll put up anuther-shall 2" asked the
man.
"Why, of course, If you think IFS BEST"
said Summers.
Accordingly the man went TO work and
soon had the rod in its place.
"That's a first rate job he said to SUM
ners, as thoy both stood cycling it. II like
such man as you are. Big hearted, liber-
al, not afraid To put dollar down for a
good thing. There's some pleasure in deal
ing with you. l like you so much that I'd
put couple more rods on that house for
almost nothing"
at would make things safer, suppose"
said Summers.
"Certalnly it would. I'd better do it,
hadn't l. heyP"
"Just as you think proper" said Sum-
ners.
So the man quickly run up two more and
then came down and said TO Mr.. Summers f:
"There-thars done. Sow let's settle
up"
"Do what?"
"Why, the jobs finished, and now
would like my money"
"You don't expect me TO pay for ii, l
hopper"
"Of course do. Didn't you tell me to
put the rods on your house?"
my houseR" shouted Summers. "Thun-
der and lightningl l never ordered you TO
put those rods up. 1t would have been ri
diculous. Why, man, this is the court
house, and 1 am waiting here for the court
to assemble. I'm on the jury. You SEEM
ed to be extremely anxious to rush out
your rods, and as it was none of my bust
ness, let you go on. Pay for 1T Come
now, that's pretty good"
The Blossburg people say that the man
ner in which that lightning rod man tore
around town and swore, was fearful. But
when he got his rods off the court house he
left permanently. He don't fancy the place.

Treating the wrong DIseae.e.

Many times Women call upon their fam
lily physicians, one with dyspepsia, another
with palpitation, another with trouble OF
tho breast, another with pain here and there,
and in this way they all present alike to
ferent doctors separate and distinct diseases,
for which he prescribes his pills aud po-
tons, assuming them to be such, when, in
reality, they are all symptoms caused by
some uterine disorder and while they arc
thus only able 10 palliate for a time, they
are Ignorant of the cause, and encourage
their practice until large bills are made,
when the suffering patients are no better
in the end, but probably worse for the de-
lay, treatment, and other complications
made, aud which proper medicine direct
ed TO the cause would have entirely re-
moved, thereby instituting health and com
fort instead of prolonged misery.
From Miss LoRINDA L. ST. CLAIR, Shade,
Athens Co., o., Oct 18th, 1872:
"Dr. r. V. Pierce, Buffalo, N. Y.-Your
Favorite Prescription is working almost
like miracle on me. am better already
than have been for over two years."
From ELLA A. SoHAFER, GAINESVILLE, Ind,
Aug. 3, 1872:
"Dr. Pierce-I received the medicine
you sent me and began using 1t Immediate
ly. As a result of the treat ment feel bet
ter than I have for three year."
From Mrs. JOHN X. HAMLIN, odell, Ill.,,
Mar. 10, 1872;
"Dr. PieTce-The Favorlte Prescription
has done me good, which am thankful for"
