Happy Homes.

We pity the man, however prosperous
his pecuniary condition, or however
great his fame, who has not happy

this life. Yet many Of our most distin-
guished men have not been fortunate in
this respect. They have been made to
feel how unsatisfactory vas the worlds
applause, or the possession Of official
power, while all was cold and heartlcss
or unsympathizing in their private homes.
And these unhappy matches have not al
ways, or generally. been made from mo-
tives Of ambition, They have seeming
ly been the misfortune Of chance. But
what a terrible misfortune! All the dis
tinctions in the world afford no compen
sation for such a deprivation. There is
something inexplicable about many un-
happy matches A young couple marry

ed successful. One ton Of the plant will

to be more than the same amount of bark

best quality Of leather The plant grows
wild in that state. A single tract in the
Western part contains over l5 900 acres,

Swallowing a Cent.

DR.. Gibbs, one OF the editors Of Halls
Journal of Health, who is himself an ed
ucated physician and surgeon, while on a
railroad train the other day, was consult
ed by one Of the employees on the train
in relation to his little boy, who had that
morning swallowed cent. What have
you done for bin 2" asked the doctor.
ave gave him dose of castor.oil. !"
was the reply. Coed practice so far;
as soon as you reach home give him the
whites Of three raw eggs daily let his
diet be bread and milk, and nothing sour"
The directions were followed faithfully,
the whites of the eggs repeated every
day, and the dose Of oil at night; and on
the fourth day the cent was discharged,
1t was one of the new copper coins, and
considerably corroded by the action of
the gastric juices. Since fatal results Of
ten follow the swallowing of copper
coin, the judicious treatment advised in
this instance should be remembered by
all who have the care of children. The
essential points to be borne in mind are
simply these Albumen. or the whites Of
eggs, bland diet free from acids, and
castor Oil .

And she laid the paper down and com

"A very genteel appearing young man
