THE CELLARS AGAIN.

How much of sickness is bred in eel
lars, it is not probable ever can be ac-
curately estimated, but there is no doubt
that many mysterious case of typhoid
and scarlet fever, rheumatism or ague,
may be correctly traced to the malarious
efHuvia emanating from these neglected
corners. Old boxes, bins and barrels,
which have contained vegetable matter.
meat, fish, ETC., need thorough overhaul
ing. 1t is not that standing in a dark
corner, they look empty; there may be
enough poison left sticking on the side
and bottom to affect the health of the
household. This work of cleansing is
often left to the women and boys of the
family. A man had much better leave
his work day, to make thorough ex-
animation and publication of the cellar,
than to be unduly anxious about getting
IN his crops in extra season. After all
garbage Is carried out, let the ceilings
and walls be faithfully brushed with
an old broom; and, if this is done once
a month, the atmosphere will be all the
sweeter. Use plenty of lime, and, in
dry weather, keep the doors and windows
open part of every day. Old tin and
Woodenware should not be allowed to
stand year after year upon the cellar
shelves. If it is not fit to be used, throw
it away.-Ohio Farmer.

LIVER AND BLOOD DISEASES.
BY R. V. PIERCE, NJ. D.

A healthy liver secretes each day
about two and half pounds of bile,
which contains a great amount of waste
material taken from the blood. When
the liver becomes torpid or congested,
it fails TO eliminate this vast amount of
noxious substance, which, therefore, re-
mains to poison the blood, and be con-
veyed to every part of the system. What
must be the condition of the blood when
1t is receiving and retaining each day
two and a half pounds of poison? Nature
tries to work on this poison through
other channels and organs-the kidneys.
lungs, skin, etc., but these organs become
over-taxed in performing this labor in
addition to their natural functions, and
cannot long withstand the pressure, but
become variously diseased.
The brain, which is the great eleetri-
cal center of all vitality, is unduly slim.
ulated by the unhealthy blood which
passes to it from the heart and it fails
to perform its Office BEAUTIFULLY. Hence
the symptoms of bile poisoning, which
are dullness, headache, incapaeity to
keep the mtnd on any subject, impair
ment of memory, dizzy, sleepy, or ner-
vous feelings, gloomy forebodings, and
lrritability of temper. The blood itself
being diseased, as it forms the sweat up
on the surface of the skin, it is so irri-
tatlng and poisonous that it produces
discolored brown spots, pimples, blotches,
and other eruptions. sores, boils, car
buncles and scrofulous tumors. The
stomach, bowels and other organs cannot
escape becoming affected, sooner or later,
and We have as the result, costiveness,
piles, dropsy, dyspepsia, diarrhoa. 9th
er symptoms are common, as bitter or
bad taste IN mouth, internal heat, pal
pltation, teasing cough, unsteady appe-
tlte, choking sensation in throat, bloat-
ing of stomach, pain in sides or about
shoulders or back, GOODNESS of extremlties
etc., Only a few of the above symptoms
are likely to be present in any case at
one time. The liver being the great
depurating or blood cleansing organ of
the system--set this great 'housekeeper
OF our health" at work, and the foul
corruptions, which gender in the blood,
and rot out, as it were, the machinery
OF life, are gradually expelled from the
system. For this purpose my Golden
Medical Discovery with very small doses
daily of my Pleasant Purgative Pellets
are prominently the articles needed.
They cure every kind ofhumor from the
worst scrofula to the common pimple,
bloteh or eruption. Great eating ulcers
kindly heal under their mighty curative
influence. Virulent blood poisons that
lurk IN the system are by them robbed
OF their terrors, and by their persever
ing and somewhat protracted use the
most tainted systems may be complete
" renovated and built up anew. En-
larged glands, tumors and swellings
awlndle away and disappear under the
influence of these great resolvents.

how CHARACTER IS EDUcED.-Men

up through the floor, covered with all

Why to stoop SO dOst thou deign?
Homeless, houseless, Son of Man,
What has placed thee meath this van ?
Mortal, would'st my mission know?
It's because | love thee so.
Master, mid the common mass
Lepers filthy thou dost pass.
And the taunts of wicked men
Vex thy soul once and again.
Mortal, through such paths | 90

Why this bitter CALLING shame
Why, oh ! why so meekly bow
Such indignity allow?
Mortal, that I'm humbled low
Is because | love thee so.
Master, by the cruel thorns
See ! thy brow is sadly torn.
Why, when angel legions stand
Waiting for thy beckoning hand?
Mortal, all this grief and woe
Is because l love thee so.
Through thy hands the cruel nails
Fasten, while thy forehead pales;
Master, rise avert this doom,
Let thy kinghood bear thee home.
Mortal, every torturing blow
Is because | love thee so.
Master, on the bloody cross
Thou art by deaths fury toss'd.
Why, oh why must this thing be,
Shame and dying unto thee?
Mortal, kheeling at my feet
Lo I! the victory is complete;
And my blood doth freely flow,
Freely, that | love thee so.
Master, darkness gathers round,
Not a ray of light is found;

Mortal, through the angry tide
L have passed; thy steps I'll guide.
Master, this | cannot bear,
Deeper pain than want or care;
why such dear affections given
If apart they must be riven?
Mortal, idols may not stand
tween thee and my reckoning hand;
Let the bleeding tendrils Irvine
hound me, then shall thou be mine.
Master, oh my heart is sore:
Why such bitter waters pour?

THE LATTER RAIN.
BY STURGEON.

1t Is very usual in the life of grace
Tor the soul to receive, in after years, a
second very remarkable visitation of the
molly Spirit, which may be compared to
the latter rain. The latter rain was
sent to plump out the wheat. and make
1t tull, mature, ready for the after har-
vest rlpening. So there is a time of
special grace granted to saints, to pre-
pare them for glory, to make them COM
pletely meet to be partakers of the in
heritance OF the saints in light. To
some this Is given in the form of what
has very commonly, and | think correct
iy been called a second conversion
There Is point in grace as much above
the ordinary Christian as the ordinary
Christian Is above the wording. The
lie OF grace is no dead level. There
are mountains and there are valleys.
There are tribes of Christians who live
IN the valleys, like the poor Swiss of the
Wales, who live in the midst of miasma
where fever has its lair, and the frame
Is languid and enfeebled. Such dwell
ers In the lowlands of unbelief are for
ever doubling, fearing, troubled, about
their interest in Christ; and tossed to
and fro; but there are other believers
Who by Gods grace, have climbed the
mountain offull assurance and near COM
muniOn. Their place is with the eagle
In his eyrie, high alOft. They are re-
Joiclng Christians, holy and devout men.
DOING service for the Master all over
the world, and everywhere conquerOrs
through him that loved him.
