The old Litchicld house has been sold 4,
moved off, aud rovamped. 1t a palace
were built where it stood, it would seem
homcly to these eyes of mine. 1t was
not the material house that ! saw in after
years, hut house shining out of a house

an atmosphere around it, impcrceptible
to other eyes, but clear and full to mine.
That oul.yapor envolving thousand airy
shapes of sorrow, tenderness, reverence,
love, fear, gladness, will never gather
about any other structure.
There are subtle losses to sensitive
soul that cannot be made up. and that
are out Of all proportion to the external
aud material value. "She has pawned
the last ring for bread for her children" ."
Only God knows how much that may
mean One by one they went-cherishe

ished in its most gracious memories The
burning of the Alexandrian Library was
a piteous loss in its way; but more pangs
have been felt at the sale of ring, a
brooch, It cradle, book, than any one
ever felt for the ancient library.
There was something about the old
house at Ltchfeld so sensitively sacred
that never could bear to look back up
on it in after years. when it had been re.

MEAys OF CHECKING CouGmING, SNEEz.
INC, Erc,--There are many facts which
show that morbid phenomena of rcspira.
tion can be stopped by the influence of
arrest. Coughing, for instance, can be
stopped by pressing on the nerves on the
lip in the neighborhood of the nose. A
pressure there may stop a cough when it
is beginning. Sneezing may be stopped
by the same mechanism. Pressing also
in the neighborhood of the ear, right in
front of the ear, may stop coughing. 1t
is also of hiccough, but much less so
than for sneezing or coughing. Pressing
very hard on the top of the mouth inside
is also means Of stopping coughing
And | may say that the will has immense
power there. There was French soldier
who used to say, whenever he entered the
wards Of his hospital, "The first patient
who coughs there will be deprived Of food
to-day 1t was exceedingly rare that II
patient coughed then. There are many
affections associated with breathing which
can be stopped by the same mechanism
that stops the hearts action In spasm
OF the glottis, which is a terrible thing in
children, as you well know, as it some
times causes death, and also in whooping
cough it is possible to afford relief by
throwing cold water on the face, or By
tickling tho soles Of the feet, which pro-
duces laughter and at the same time goes
to the gray matter that is producing the
spasm aud arrests it almost at once.
would not say that these means are al
ways successful | would not say that
We can always prevent coughing by our
will but in many instances those thugs
arc possible, aud if you remember that in
bronchitis aud pneumonia, or any other
acute affection of the lungs hooking or
coughing greatly increases the trouble at
times, you can easily see how important
it is for the natient to try to avoid cough.

Premature Intel
lectual Decay.
yheir Rational Treatment
andPOsltive Cure.

We can contemplate no more painful and
melancholy spectacle than mind In ruins
or the wreck OF q Nervous System. And
yet Mental and Nervous Deransements are
yearly increasing at an alarming rate.
Broken down Constitutions, Physical EX-
haustion, Nervous Weakness, Paralysis Of
the Brain, General Debility. Early Decay OF
Manhood, Cases OF suicide and Insanity,
are now numbered by thousands all over
the land. No rank or class Is exempt from
these terrible malades. Married and
single, male and female, rich and poor, all
casIes are included In the dark catalogue.
The young man oil proud birth, fortune and
intellect, whose aims, hopes and ambition
should have led him up TO the higher
plains of lie, has fallen prey to the Great
DESTROYER. The youth OF humble paren-
tage, whose cheek once bloomed and blush
ed with Innocence and health, whose eye
once sparkeled with the radiant fires OF a
bri,lia MT mind, whose step once was manly
and frm, is now among lts myrlad victims.
Uncounled thousands perish thus. year
after year without knowing the cause Of
their ruin until the golden sands OF lie have
all run out Like stars that set TO rise no
more, so do they fall into premature graves,
pass from mortal sight forever and fade
away into eternal oblivion.
But is there no physician for this large
class OF human sufferers and no Antidote
for these wide spread maladies? We aus
uer, uS Your lie may yet be redeemed
from ce tructiOn. and crowned with many
a year Of health and happiness. We know
that ply 5icians in general practice, for rant
of erperience and skill IN this class OF ailments
have done bu' lille Tor their relief and
absolutely nothing for their cure.

science from the time Of Aristotle the
Greek, until the close of the last Genius

and Desire, (faeultas eognoseendi; faeut-
tas oppetendi All men who have paid
attention to mental science admit and
insist upon the threshold division OF
our powers. as finally and completely
settled BY the able discussions Of that
time, from l75l to 1890. This was
called the tfchotomy or threshold an
stomy OF our mental powers. They
are now most generally recognized by
the terms, the intellectual. moral and
active powers OF man. These. like

stitution OF man, and as giving an
essentially moral nature to him, the

far science ia not at war with religion.
Ifscience has purpose to undermine
religion, it must recast its philosophy,

MY vIsIOH.
BY CHARLES Z. HATHAWAY.

BY CHARLES Z HATHAWAY.
One night when was sweetlv sleeping,
Dreaming dreams Of long Ego;
Before my eyes were used % weeping
Thescalding tears that blind them SO,
I was awaken'd by trapping
On the bed pest oy the door,
Foflow'd by q gentle tapping
On the ceiling, on the floor.
Swinging nom my couch in wonder,
l gaZed around In wild surp Use,
Without, heard the rum6iinathunder
Issuing from the troubled skies,
And from the clouds the rain was streaming
Icould hear IL pitter pat;
Was II the rain that stopped my dreaming,
No! twas something more than that.
The shadows grew more dense and denser
My heart ceased its beating quite,
When suddenly perfume d censor
Filled the room aplaz with light;
Before my strained enTaptured vision,
Her dark hair sweeping to the floor,
saw radiant scene Elysian
In the form OF sweet Lenore. - o.,
NY soul scanned III ed high and higher
Above the cares that engToss me now;
The spirit came more nigh and higher
And placed her hand upon my brow
Strange thoughts through my braip were
burning,
They b. alike but one refrain;
Strange weird lessons had been learning,
That the dead come back sgain.
A Joy ecstatic thrilled my being
saw again my lost Lenore,
And wonde1ous views my eyes were seeing
That mortals never saw before,
The maid n spoke In Will pers thrilling,
A halo shone above her head
And now II you are only willing
I'll tel you what the maiden laid.
"From my beautiful home in Heaven
Where the skies are ever blue,
To me q me- sage has been given
And now / bring 1t unto you,
When you are bowed by grief and sadness,
Lit our eyes TO Heaven above,
There you will find both strength and glad
ness,
And remember God is lore"
Then her angelic wings she fiuttered
Like q cooipg turtle dove,
And l in pleading accents uttered,
"Stay With US forever, Love-"
But the shadows grew grim and denser,
Ny soul partook its former gloom,
More dimly burned the perfumed ceuser,
she left me in my lonely room.
