VaLUE OF SUMNER FRUITS

A very mistaken idea has found a
lodgment in the minds of many, 9TH
erwise sensible persons, to wit, that
summer complaints, the generic term
under which the disorders peculiar to
the season arc known, are caused
mainly by the use of fruit, and that
the wise and safe plan is to prohibit
its use altogether.
The method, which neglects TO take
advantage ofonc of the most beneficent
provision for mans use, comfort, and
well-being, is detrimental not only to
enjoyment but TO permanent health
The term "anti-scorbutic" expresses
the value of fruits as food, and the esti-
nation in which they arc held by those
who understand their relation to hu-
man want.
When fruit does harm, it is because
it is eaten at improper times in improp-
er quantities, or before il has ripened
and is fit for the human stomach.
Fruit ought not to be eaten between
meals any more than any other food.

RATHER TRouRLEsoME.-The Chica-
go Times remarks:
The "nigger' gives no end of troub-
lie to the Republican officeholders The
party has pledged itself to treat him u
little better than his white brother
and in its attempt to fulfil its pledges
it has run against innumerable snags
The last one is the colored cadet Smith.
Ever since his admission to West Point
he has been in hot water. Previous to
the graduation Of his class the secre-
tary Of war succeeded in having him
dismissed on account of his deficiency
in philosophy, and thus he shirlzed
the responsibility of assigning him to
duty in the regular army. But the
cadet objects to his treatment, and
publishes a thrce-column card in Fred
Douglass paper in which he shows how
causeless his dismissal was. The whole
trouble seems TO have arisen because
of the reluctance of Secretary Belknap
to offend the officers of any of the
regiments by assigning a snigger' to
duty with them.

How THEY Oct Horse Up.-When
a horse falls down, says an exchange,
fourteen men put their hands in their
pockets and ask each other why they
don't do something. Fifteen other
men advise the driver until he is half
mad, and two small boys stand by with
their hands clasped and an expression
of determination written on every lin
eament. Then several men ask why
somebody don't hold his head, until
one old gentlemen volunteers to hold
it, He steps forward calmly, bends
over the prostrate animal and puts one
hand gently on his ear The horse,
getting tired, raises his head suddenly,
the crowd laugh, and the old gentleman
seems to take no further interest in the
proceedings. Then the horse, having
had all the fun he can have, rises like
a tidal wave, and the crowd disperses.

As q rule the whole tone of home
depends upon the woman at the head
of it: the average home; not the pow
erty-stricken home nor the wealthy
home. In this average home, whether
sunshine shall enter the rooms, wheth.
er the parlor shall be used and enjoyed,
whether the table shall be invitingly
spread, whether bright lights and
bright fires shall give warmth and
cheer on winter nights, whether, in
brief, the home shall be an agreeable
or a disagrceable place, is usually what
the woman determines. Men are pow
erless in the matter. Some find soTace
for dismal home in study; some, oc-
cupation in business others are at
tracted by the cheer Of the public
bouse; and il is especially young men
who are apt, in consequence, to get
into bad company and bad habits.

SwARMING BEEs.--A bee keeper
gives the following plan to prevent
swarm Of bees from getting away from
the hive with the statement that after
ten years experience he has known il
to fail but once: As soon as they
show the first symptoms of swarming,
stop up some Of the outlets to the hive
so as to force them to be consider
able time coming out. The swarm be-
ing made up in part of young bees,
many of whom cannot fly, wen, and
as nothing can be done by the swarm
until all are out and fly about in the
air, by prolonging their exit the feeble
ones become tired, and finding their
plans frustrated, they alight to arrange
their journey. If they can leave the
old hive all at once, they care very
little about alighting.
