Wrong Custom CoErecIsd.

A Wrong Custom soErectso'
1t lie quite generally the custom to
take strong liver stimulants for the cure
of liver complaint, and both the min.
ersl and vegetable Kingdoms have been
diligently searched to procure the most
drastic and poisonous purgatives, In Or
der to produce powerful effect upon,
the liver, and arouse the tagging ana
enieebled organ. This system OF treat
ment is on the same principle as that OF
giving a weak and debilitated man large
portions OF brandy to enable him 10 DO
a certain amount OF work. Wher the
stimulant is withheld, the organ like
the system, gradually relapses into q
more torpid or sluggish and weakened
condition than before. What then IL
wanted? Medicines that, while they
make the bile flow freely from the ilV-
er, as that organ is toned into action
will not overwork and thus debiiltate II
but will, when their use ia discontinued,
leave the liver strengthened and
healthy.

and muscles and sinews of the producing
classes. 4 repetition of this folly is now
being attempted in this country, and if
it shall prove successful even by the We
toes of President Grant, untold calami-
ties are in store, not for the debtor class
only, but for all who are engaged in pro-
ductiye industry, from the large manu-
facturer to the humblest laborer.

holds the ballot, and that at the election
he can give an emphatic and successful

purchasing power of their boarded dol

cupidity? The rapid increase of popula-
tion, the completion of great enterprises,
the Inauguration of new ones, the vastly
extended area of circulation, the devel-
oping of agricultural and mineral re-
sources, the repairing of the desolations
of war, since the passage of the legal
tender act, al! demand an increase of
money.

A Fifteen Hours Walk for Life.

On Sunday afternoon a young man
named George Falk swallowed, as is sta
ted, three ounces of laudnum and FIVE
grains of morphia, in order to end his
life, as was reported yesterday. There
was one way of saving him, and that
was to keep him in motion. After re-
lieving him as much as possible, his
physician, DR.. NJ. J. Gately, ordered that
he be walked until he was ont of danger
At half past o'clock Sunday afternoon
he was put upon his tramp for life, and
was forced to walk in the open air as fast
as he could. His father kept by him for
a long time, and friend or policeman
assisted. After some hours the father
gave out, and finally officers and friends
grew tired. At last officers had to be
taken from their beats and made to work
in saving the life of the would be sui
eide. When the walk commenced it
was with great difficulty that he could
be kept going, and so great was his stu
por that at times he would almost fall
like stick. Frequently it was neces-
sary to catch him and move him on He
reeled at times like drunken man, and
then again he would revive considerable.
The dreary, monotonous walk was kept
up without intermission until half past
6 o'clock yesterday morning, when the
physician consented that he could be al
lowed to take rest. The life of the
young man was saved, but the struggle
for freedom from the effects of drugs
was severe one. To have stopped
three minutes would have been fatal

Sleep.

Now with regard to sleep, the recum-
bent position has obviously very much
to do with it. Undoubtedly sleep may
occur in the sitting posture, and even
while standing; but these cases are ex-
ceptiOnal. 1t is certian, also, that sleep
in bed, as a rule, is sounder with low
pillow than high one. II, then, there
be a state of wakefulness at night, the
head should be be kept low, if on the
contrary, there is undue sleepiness, the
head should be kept high. The degree
of sleep and the amount of it may be
regulated by simply taking care that the
head is in the right position. If pro-
longed redundancy is necessary part
of the treatment, the tendency to sleep
too much during the day, and too little
at night, may thus be corrected. By
raising the head in the daytime, the pa
tient remains awake sufficiently to be
able to sleep at night; by depressing the
head at bedtime, the conditions are
favorable to sleep during the night; and,
as rule, sleep is not to be conciliated
in this way without the help of narcotics.

A Bug ExterminatOr.

Hot alum water is recent suggestion
as an insecticide. 1t will destoy red and
black ants. cockroaches, spiders, chintz
bugs, and all the crawling pests which
infest our homes. Take two pounds of
alum and dissolve it in three or four
quarts of boiling water; let in stand on
the fire until the alum disappears; then
apply it with brush, while nearly boil
ing hot, to every joint and erevice in
your closets, bedsteads, pantry shelves,
and the like. Brush the crevices in the
floor of the skIrting or mop-boards, If
you suspect-t that they harbor vemin. If,
in whitewashing ceiling, plenty of al
UNI added to the lime will also serve to
keep insects at distance. Cockroaches
will flee the paint which has been wash
ed in cool alum water. Sugar barrels
and boxes can be freed from ants by
drawing wide chalk mark just round
the edge of the top of them. The mark
must be unbroken or they will creep ov-
er it, but a continuous chalk line half an
inch in width will set their depredationf
Mt naught.

Signs Of Character.

1t is said that any nose which is less
than the height of the forehead is an
indication of detective intellect. The
eyes indicate character rather by their
color than their form. The dark blue are
found most commonly in persons of gen
tie and refined character; light blue and
gray in the rude and energetic.
Lavater says: "Hazel eyes are the
more usual indications of a mind mas
culine, vigorous and profound; just as
genius, properly SO called, is almost al
ways associated with eyes of yellowish
cast, bordering on the hazel"
The higher the brows rise, the more
their possessor is supposed to be under
the influence of feeling; and the lower,
the better controlled by his reason. A
very small eyebrow is an indication of
want of force of character.
A tolerably large mouth is essential to
vigor and energy, and a very small one
is indicative of weakness and Incidence.
In a manly face, the upper lip should
extend beyond and dominate the lower.
Fleshy lips are oftener found associated
with voluptuous and rieagre ones with
passionless nature.
The retreating chin indicates weak
ness; the perpendicular, strength; and
the sharp, acuteness of mind.

Paddle Your Own Canoe.

Judge S. gave his son 81 900 and told
him to go to college and graduate. The
son returned at the end of the freshman
year without dollar, and with several
bad habits. About the close of vaca-
tion the Judge said to his son:
"Well, William, are you going to col
leg this year?"
"Have no money, father"
"But 7 gave you $1,000 to graduate
on"
"That's all gone, father"
Every well, my son; / gave you all
could afford to give you; you can't stay
here; you must now pay your way in the
world"
A new light broke in upon the vision
of this young man. He Accommodated
himself to the situation, he left home,
made his way through college, and grad
uated at the head of his class studied
law, became Governor of the State OF
New York, entered the Cabinet of the
President of the United States, and
made record for himself that will moi
soon die, being none other than the Hon
William H. Seward.

The Sort of Men that Women Like
Best.

We know that men naturally shrink
from the attempt to obtain companions
who are their superiors; but they will
find that really intelligent women, who
possess most desirable qualities, are uni
ft rmly modest, and hold their charms in
modest estimation. What such women
admire in men is gallantry; not the gal
lantry of courts or fops, but boldness,
courage devotion, and refined civility
A mans bearing wins ten superior wo-
men where his boots and brains win one.
If man stand before woman with
respect for himself and fearlessness of
her, his suit is half won. The rest may
safely be left to the parties most interest
ed. Therefore, never be afraid of wo-
man. Women are the most harmless
and agreeable creatures in the world to
a man who shows that he has got a
mans soul in him. If you have not
got the spirit to come up to the test like
this, you have not got that in you which
most pleases a high-souled woman, and
you will be obliged to content yourself
with the simple girl who, in quiet way,
is endeavoring to attract and fasten you.
But don't be in hurry about the mat
ter. 1t isn't creditable to you. Espec-
tally don't imagine that any disappoint-
ment in love which takes place before
you are twenty-one years old, will be of
any material consequence to you.
The truth is, that before a man is
twenty-five years old, he does not know
what he wants himself. So don't be in
hurry. The more of man you be-
come, and the more manliness you be-
come capable of exhibiting in your as
sociations with women, the better wife
you will be able to obtain; and one years
possession of the heart and hand of a
really noble specimen of her sex, is
worth nine hundred and ninety-nine
years possession of sweet creature
with two ideas in her head and nothing
new to say about either of them.-So
don't be in hurry, we say again. You
don't want a wife now, and you have no
idea the kind of wife you will want
by and by. Go into female society, if
you can find that which will improve
you, but not otherwise

Scribner's for May.

Jules Verne's new story, "The mys-
terious Island" is continued in the May
number of Scribner's, with which num-
Der a volume of this magazine is begun.
In the same number Edward King has
another "Great South chapter, profusely
illustrated. Mr.. King deals, this month,
with the mountains of Tennessee, Geor-
gia and South Carolina. "Adina," an
interesting story by Henry james, Jr., is
begun, and will be concluded in June;
Mrs. Spofford has touching story, en-
titled, "At Last" and there is a graphic
sketch by r. II. d. OF "The Doctors
wife" Mr.. Richardson's illustrated pa
per on "The New Homes Of New York, ("
tells and suggests much about the "hat"
system of living. Mr.. Stedman discusses
"Tennyson" with his usual skill, insight
and catholicity; Mr.. Rufner, Superin-
tendent of Public Instruction Of the State
of Virginia, gives his own decided opin-
ion on "The Co-Education of the White
and Colored Races" and Mr.. Schumach-
er describes the lately discovered "Silver
Desert" of South America. Mr.. Taylor's
District School," the opening poem, is
charmingly illustrated by Sol. Eytinge;
and Miss Trafton's catherine Earle" is

ment" and political Morality" The

st. Nicholas for May.

The Frontispiece of st. Nicholas for
May is a very large and remarkably fine
engraving illustrating a passage in Goe-
the's Poem, Johanna Sebus" Indeed,
this number contains many engravings
of unusual excellence: Miss Hallock
has two, one of which is a specimen of
her very best work on wood; Miss Led
yard has two; Eytinge and Sheppard
each has a capital piece Of character
drawing; there is beautiful little thing
copied from Michelet, and a picture
from one of Hendschelps graceful and
dainty sketches. There is even a draw
ing from a native japanese artist. The
literary contents this month alternate
very fairly between the practical and the
imaginative. There is an article on the
"Origin Of Blind Mans Buff" one on
the workings and wonders of the Tele-
graph; paper by the late n. s. Dodge,
on "Auctions All Over the World"
"Christmas City, capital description
of toy-town which can be built by
any smart boy, an account of the origin
of the story of Blue Beard; a true story
from Holstein, of missionary stork, d
an article with illustrations descriptive
of "Haydn's Children's Symphony" As
to fiction, there are the three serial stor-
les by Trowbridge, Stockton and Olive
Thorne, all full of interest this month;
story of Greenland, with an adventure
with polar bears; a delightful little
home-story called Miss Fanshaw's Tea.
Party; japanese Fairy tale, and "The
Jimmyjohns' Sailor-Suits," one of Mrs.
Diaz' popular sketches. "How Persim-
mons Took Cab OBJ Der Baby" by Mrs.
Lizzie w. Chamoney, is a most delight
fuI piece of southern dialect poetry, and
with its capital illustrations, is sure to
be popular with old and young. ain
the Wood" is a sweet little poem with a
sweet little picture. The Departments
are all good as usual, especially Jack-in-
the-Pulpit, in which there is pre-emi-
nently funny story of low spirited tur-
tie. The Riddle Box contains one of the
best puzzles of the day, an everyday
song, written in the Language Of the
Restless Imps."
