Sun-Baths,

These cost nothing and are the most
refreshing, lfe.giving bathso one can take,
whether sick or we'll. Every housekeep-
err knows the benefit of giving her wool
ems the sun, from time to time, and es-
pecially after long absence from the
sun. Many will think of the injury
their clothes are liable to from damp
ness, who will never reflect that an occa'
sional exposure of their own bodies is
equally necessary for their own health.
The sun-baths cost nothing, and that is
misfortune. for people are still delud
ed with the idea that those things can
only be good or useful that cost money,
and they will cheerfully pay away their
dollars for Turkish and Russian baths,
which would be far less beneficial to
them.
Let it not be forgotten that three of
Gods most beautiful gifts to man-three
things most necessary to good health
sunlight, fresh air and water-are free to
all you can have them in abundance,
without money and without price, if you
will. If you would enjoy good health,
then, see to it that you are supplied with
good air to breathe at all times; that
you battle for an hour or so in the sun
light that you quench your thirst with
no other liquid than water.
In regard to sun baths, let any indi-
vidual who reads this, and who has been
housed for some time, take an occasion
al walk in the sun, if it should only be
on the piazza, and observe the effect. In
our opinion he will find it the most
heaithful bath he has ever taken. Sleep
ing rooms should be selected in such
parts of the house as have the most ben
eft from the rays of the sun. The bed
and bed clothes should be aired and kept
in the sun as long as possible every day.
Many Of the sleeping rooms in the no.
tells are so situated as to never feel the
suns rays, and those who occupy such
rooms for any length Of time are simply
committing suicide.

Too TRUE.-A few friends will GO and
bury US, affection will rear stone and
plant few flowers over our grave; in a
brief period the little hillock will be
smoothed down, and the stone will fall,
and neither friend nor stranger will be
concerned to ask which one of the for.
gotten millions of the earth was buried
there. Every vestige that we ever lived
upon the earth will have vanished away.
All the little memorials Of our remem.
brance-the lock of hair encased in gold
or the portrait that hung in our dwelling
will cease to have the slightest interest

A WEAsEL's SAGACITY.-Ane exchange
gives the following account of weasel's
stratagem, with the suspicious remark
that it is vouched for by friend: A
grist mill was infested with large rats,
until a weasel came there, and destroyed
nearly all of them. There was, however
one largerat he could not conquer. They
had several pitch battles in which the
rat whipped the weasel, until when ever
the rat appeared the weasel would seek
safety in fight. They were watched for
several days, when the weasel was OBJ
served to be digging a hole in the earth
under pile of lumber. After he had
completed it he approached the mill and
the rat came after him as usual. He
made some show of fight until he had
got the rat interested, and then ran into
his hole. The rat followed, when the
weasel was seen TO come out at the other
end of the hole, and run in at the en-,
trance after the rat. Subsequent exami
nation proved that the weasel had made
the hole large enough for the rat to en-
ter, but had contracted the other end 81
that he could not get out. Having thu
trapped his antagonist, the weasel tool
him in the rear, aud easily conquered

Trimming Up.

All farmers, perhaps are not aware of
the great improvement in trimming up
in the general appearance of their farms,
and especially when done in the imme-
date vicinity of their buildings, which
can be accomplished by cutting and
clearing worthless bushes from the road
side. Besides affording clearer and
better view of "verdant field and pas
ture green on the other side to the
passer-by, it is an unmistakable evidence
Of the thrift and enterprise Of its own
ers,-too many of our New England farm
ers sadly lack. This may seem to them
of small consequence when there is SO
much other necessary work to be per-
formed, yet we can assure them that peo-
pie passing by always notice and COM
ment upon the appearance of their prem
ises, and judge the man by his immedi-
ate surroundings, and are generally
pretty correct in their judgment. If
you wish to sell your farm, the expense
of brush-cutting will prove paying in.
vestment; if you wish to keep it, it will
pay still better in the pride and satisfa c.
ton it will bring you. A certain amount
of pride should be fostered by all class
es, and we think it more becoming in
farmers than most others, as they have
greater opportunities and inducements
to exercise it.-Peterborough Transcript

All these dignitaries in velvet and pow
