Short Hints Concerning Sickness.
'sper in the sick-rOOm.

Don't whisper III the sick-rOOm.
When the doctor comes TO see you, re-
member how many pairs of stairs he has
to climb every day, and go down to him
if You are well enough.
When you are sitting up at night with
a patient, be sure to have something to
eat, if you wish to save yourself UNI
necessary exhaustion.
Remember that sick people are not
necessarily idiotic or imbecile, and that
it is not always wise to try to persuade
them that their sufferings are imaginary.
They may even ut times know best what
they need.
Never deceive a dying person unless
by the doctors express orders. 1t is not
only wrong to allow any soul to go into
eternity without preparation, but how
can you tell but that he has something
he ought to tel or to do before he goes
away!
If you have a sick friend to whom you
wish to be of use, do not content your
self with sending her flowers and Jelly,
but lend her one of your pictures to
hang in place of hers, or a bronze to re-
place the one at which she is so tired o;
staring.
Don't have needless conversations with
the doctor outside of the sick-room.
Nothing will excite and irritate a nerv-
Gus patient sooner. If you do have such
conversations, don't tell the patient that
the doctor said "nothing." He won't
believe You, and he will imagine the
worst possible.
In lifting the sick, do not take them
by the shoulders and drag them up on to
the pillows, but get some one to help
you. Let one stand on one side of the
patient, the other opposite, then join
hands under the shoulders and hips, and
lift steadily and promptly together. This
method is easy for those who lift, and
does not disturb the one who is lifted.
Do not imagine that your duty is over
when you have nursed your patient
through his illness, and he is about the
house, or perhaps going out again.
Strength does not come back in q mo-
ment, and the days when little things
worry and little efforts exhaust, when
the cares of business begin TO press, but
the feeble brain and hand refuse TO think
and execute, are the most trying to the
sick one, and then comes the need for
your tenderest care, your most unob-
trusive watchfulness. -" Home and So
ciety'" ScriJner for September.

Further from the Black Hills.

A dispatch from Bismarck, Dakota
Territory, says: Eleven of the Black
Hills party have arrived, eight days from
the hills, all well. Some of the party re-
NAMED in the hills prospecting, but will
probably arrive soon. II. n. Ross, Gen.
Clusters chief miner of last year, arrived
with the party. He reports the pros
poets for gold better than he anticipated.
The party travelled in n direct line, and
pronounce the route excellent in all par
tlculars. About 1000 men have been in
the hills, most of whom left when this
party did. Those who remained will be
arrested by Gen. Cook. Ross had an in
terview with Professor Jenney, who
wanted him to stay. The Professor was
enthusiastic, and pronounces the country
rich with gold. Ross was seventeen
days in the mining districts, and travelled

SOME DAY.

SINE day" we say, and turn our eyes
Toward the fair hills of Paradise.
Some day, some time, sweet new rest
Shall blossom, hower-lke, in each breast.
some time, some day, our eyes shall see
The faces kept in memory.
Some day their hands shall clasp our hands
just over in the Morning Lands.
Some day our ears shall hear the song
OF triumph over sin and wrong.
Some day, some time, but oh no. yet,
But we will wait and not forget
That some day all those things shall be,
And rest be given 10 you and me.
So wait, my friend, though years move slow
The happy time will come we know.

The Detroit WAY.

LII WAS the second tlme he Hiu dccOlu-
panied the young lady home from one OF
those little social parties which are gotten
up to bring fond hearts step nearer to
each other.
When they reached the gate she asked
him if he wouldn't come in. He said
he would, and he followed her into the
house. at was a calm, still night,
and the hour was so late that he had no
fear of seeing the old folks. Sarah took
his hat, told him to sit down and she
left the room to lay off her things. She
was hardly gone before her mother came
in, smiled sweetly, and dropping down
beside the young man she said
81 always did say that if poor but
respectable young man fell i'll love with
Sarah he should have my consent. Some
mothers would sacrifice their daughters
happiness for riches, but | am not of
that class.
The young man gave start of alarm.
He didn't know whether he liked Sarah
or not, and he hadn't dreamed of such a
thing rs marriage.
"She has acknowledged to me that she
loves you, continued the mother, " and
whatever is for her happiness is for
mine
The young man gave two starts of
alarm this time, and he felt his cheeks
grow pale.
CT haven't -" he stammered,
when she said
sob, never mind. know you haven't
much money, but of course You'll live
with me. Well take in boarders, and
I'll risk but that We'll get along all
right"
1t was bad situation. He hadn't
even looked love at Sarah, and he felt
that he ought TO undeceive the mother.

said

"But, madam, but-but-"
"All | ask is that you be good to her, .
interrupted the mother. "Sarah has q
tender heart and loving nature, and il
yon should be cross and ugly it would
break her down within a week"
The young mans eyes stood out like
cocoanuts i'll show window, and he rose
up ana tined to say something. de SAID
"Great Heavens madam, can't per

"Never mind about the thanks" she
interrupted. 81 don't believe in long

"There, there, 1 don't expect an,

How They Punished Ilorse-Thieyes in
1882

An old-time sentence has been resur.
rected by the York pa Daily. 1t is
n part of the record of York sessions for
1882, when Henry Heiner, for the offense
of horse-stealing, was sentenced "to
stand in the pillory that he be whipped
as the public whipping-post III Yorktown
with 33 lashes ON his bare back well laid
on that both his ears be cut off and
nailed to the pillory ; that he be commit

the costs of this prosecution and stand

4 Battle On Texas Prairie---All
About n Woman.

A terrible affair occurred recently near
Dallas, Texas. About twenty wagons
met on the prairie, combined into one
train and camped together. In the train
was young widow, who i'll her manner
WINS sociable in the extreme. A man
who had joined the train from some quar-
ter began paying his devotions to her,
which she rather encouraged. He
pushed his suit with vigor, and finally
made certain advances which she re-
scented, and informed one of her adj
mirers of the insult put upon her. He
Immediately took up her cause and called
upon the offending party, who acknowl-
edged the fact. An apology was de
manded and refused, and fight deter
mined on. The male members of the
train divided into three parties. One
favored the lady's cause, another the
offending party, while the third advo-
Gated peaceful measures, and sought to
reconcile matters. Finding this to be
impossible, the peaceful party pulled up
stakes and left, determined to take no
hand in the affair. They had not pro-
ceeded far before the sound of pistol
shots, in rapid succession, were heard,
accompanied by shrill screams of women.
The battle had begun. Both the remain
ing parties had taken up arms III sup
port of their companions, and fought to
the bitter end. The fight was furious,
but after time tho pleadings of the
women separated the combatants, but
not until three men were MORALLY
wounded and several others dangerously
so. About fifteen men were engaged III
