A Practical MoTHER.- The other
day when Cass street boy heard Of II
boy who educated himself to become a
grea; orator, he went home, and got his
school render down and began:
"The next gale that sweeps from the
north will bring to our ears the clash-"
His mother arrived just then, and tax
ing him by the ear, she said:
Boy, if you don't go out and split me
some wood, I'll make you think earth
and sky have bumped each other
And as the boy hacked away at an old
chunk, he soIemnly vowed he would GO
to Missouri, and join the james robbers.

CoNsERvATIvE.-A story is told that
in one OF the Dutch settlements, where
they adopted the primitive custom Of
carrying corn to the mill across the back
of horse, one family from time immem-
olial had been in the habit Of placing he
corn in one end of the bag and II stone in
the other 10 balance it. One day the son
in adjusting the bag, found that it might
be balanced without the stone ; and over
joyed brought his father to see. But old
Hans soemnly and wrathiully decided
against such new-tangled ways; he had
always carried the stone to the mill, his
father had always carried the stone to the
mill, his grandfather had always carried
the stone to the mill, and why should he
sci himself up to know more than they
From such an argument there could be
no appeal old Barebones was saddled
with the rock rs before, and the world
still moved on.

A SOFT ANswER.-Tl husband was
quicktempered and often inconsderate.
They had been married not yet year,
when one day, in fit of wrath, he said
to his wife:
II want no correction from you. If
you are not satisfied with my conduct you
can return to your home whence / took
you and find happiness with your kind ~
eli L leave you," returned the unhap-
ny wife, will you give me back what |
brought you ?"
Every dollar. covet not your gold.
You shall have it all back"
"Ah I" she answered, ~ mean not
the wealth of gold. | thought not of the
dross. l meant my maiden heart, my
first and only love-my buoyant hopes
and the promised blessing of my woman
hood. Can you give those back t me?"
A moment OF thought, of convulsion,
and then taking her to his arms, he said:
mo, no, my wife, cannot do all that,
but l will do more. will cherish your
blessing as my own and never again will
l, with Gods help, forget the pledge l
gave at the holy altar, when you gave
your peace and happiness into my care.''
How true it is that "a softanswer turn

how many of the bitter strles of domestic
life might be avoided by remembering

BATHING.-Hardly anything is more
conducive health and comfort at this sea
son than the habit of daily bathing. 1t
not only promotes health and cleanliness,
which Is all important both to the moral
and physical well being, but it gives II
CHEEKY vigor, which is of service in ward
ing off attacks of disease and keeping up
the tone Of the whole system. With our
abundant water supply and free baths
there is no excuse for negecting the nd =
vantages of daily bathing. Dirt, as Rus
kin says, may be picturesque, but it is
uncomfortable and unhealthy and should
not be allowed to clog up the pores of the
skin. Fortunate are the people who can
take IA salt water bath every summer day,
but for those who can't, fresh water is an
excellent substitute. Care of course
should be taken to have the temperature
Of the water accommodated to the strength
and vitality Of the bather In this war
fare for health let no one throw up the

The thirty weeks of the present year
that have already elapsed have been most
sadly productive of storm and disaster.
The calamaties produced by excessive
action of the forces of Nature are unpre-
cedented. A long and cold Winter pro-
duced great amount of suffering and
hardship in a large part of this country
then came the early Summer floods in
France, devastating that fair land 10y
their fury and violence, and which
seemed TO BE- the forerunner OF similar
disasters all over Europe; for since then
Hungary, Bohemia Austria, Switzer-
land and England have suffered from
like catastrophes. Now comes news
from the great wheat and corn regions Of
| Ohio, Indiaua, Illinois aud Missouri,
that heavy rains and streams bank high
have submerged grain and destroyed
property to au Alarming extent Aud as
a supplementary phase of the sad report,
tho telcsraphie report from the cities on
the banks Of ths Mississippi river states
that vast area Of valuable cotton and
sugar laud with their standing crops is
in imminent danger of being overlooked
and destroyed by the raging waters OF
that stream. This last form of national
disaster is to be deplored for the reason
that the loss falls heaviest on those whc
can least afford 70 lose. The planters il
Mississippi. Louisiana, Texas and tht
lower river-hottomlands, have gone tC
great expense in retaining the rich sol
of that country, aud have with praise

The general distinction between mind
and matter has been the theme OF count
less discourses aud the basis Of thou
sand works by oil metaphysical writer's
from Plato to Bulwer Lytton. OF late,
the attributes or characterizations OF the |
soul, as compared with the mind, has
assumed an interesting feature, arising |
from the PRONUNCIATION of new and novel
views relative to tho distinguishing
phases of mentality. The German mate
rialists argue basis Of life founded al
most entirely on tangible features and
characteristics capable Of analysis. That
the soul and mind are two distinct attri-
butes of human existence is fact, which,
though argued negatively by many, Is
nevertheless capable of demonstration.
1t is always the province Of writer to
prove the truth of proposition, before
endeavoring to refute the ialsity OF an
opposite assertion. The mind may be
viewed as higher form Of instinct, and
is more of passive than an active attri-
butte, and is thereby suited TO the mac
tiyity Of the matter with which il deals
and from which it receives impressions
while the soul is capable Of evolving ana
producing new combinations OF thonsht
and displays its active principle 10y acting
upon matter instead of being acted upon
Napoleon used TO say that great men
acted on Others weak ones were acted
on bv others; the difference illustrates
one important point Of contrariety be-
tween the soul and the mind The mind
of man would alone be sufficient TO place
him at the head OF the animal creation,
but possessed of the animatins and quick
ening principle of the soul, he
is, as ii were, materiali2ed ano
modified Deity, capable Of god!ik,
action and possessed Of ereetiye-powel
and constructive ability. The mine
deals with matter, tho soul in turn acti
upon the mind and exalts il to dignity
commensurate with it's own scale ano
co-existent with its own spiritual life
We use the inter VIM III hio'ihe''N" "
material life which is possessed, IN com
mon with man, by all created thlhBS'
The human trinity of attributes, COM
prising matter mind and soul, may be
considered in the following order: Matter
forming the animal portion of our con
stituency, mind the mortal component
and soul the immortal, Those thre
divisions of mans nature are capable
dual and isolated action and joint func
tions. When wo bring tho mind to bea
on the material topics Of everyday life
such as the wants of the body or provis
ion for the immediate future, sucl
mental action is illustrative of one com
Lination. In rejecting on the truths o
revealed religion, or the Immortality o
the divine essence emanating from th
divinity, we call jointly into action lh
analytical power of the mind and tn
spiritualistio principle of the soul 1t
the soul-life that forms the great bar to th
acceptance of the hypothesis known
the Darwinian theory, FOR though mat
ter and mind are capable of elminatio
and development, the soul partaSin
more of the nature of spirituality Is {
itself and from the divinity of its Origin
incapable of any mundane variation
substitution in relation to material life
