A curious little book has Just been pub
lished by the Putnams, entitled 1.-The Influ-
ence of Music on Disease" by French
physician. The pith of his book is found in
the practical application which proposes
musical cure for disease. and the learned
writer expatiates viyaciously on what diseases
1t Is necessary to fiddle at, and what to play
the flute over, and for which symphonies are
better, and for which banjo variations.

Prof L. S. Morse says: Only the female
spiders spin webs They own all the real
estate, and the males have to live a vagabond
life under stones and in other obscure hiding
places. Ii they come about the house so
often as to bore the ruling sex, they are mer-
CHESS y killed and eaten. The spiders skin
is as unyielding rs the shells of Holsters and
crabs, aud is shed from time to time in the
same way to accommodate the animals
growth. If You poke over the rubbish in A
female spiders back yard, among her cast-off
corsets you will find the jackets Of the males
who have paid for their sociality with their
lives, trophies Of her barberism as trnly as
scalps show the savage nature OF the red man.

4 AUTUMN.
by LA Il Ell.

Of all four seasons Of the year,
Spring has the greatest beauty,
From this we learn that GOD Is great,
To whom we owe duty.
Summer comes, all hcavy laden
With the products Of the land,
Saying to us in a whisper,
This is from Gods gracious hand.
Autumn next comes in rotation,
With its beauty crowned,
Teaching us, that we must fade
As the leaf which kissed the ground.
Winter, last, comes in upon us,
Telling us that death is sure,
All around us looks SO drcary,
Yet, in Christ we are secure.
Pause brother. sister, for Il moment,
Look about You everywhere,
See the work of the great artist,
EAcrlIing all--oi him beware.
Look at Wonder great high mountain,
Towering high up i'll tine air,
At its tu.l,a-r, tin-cd with cauty,
Fading, dylug, everywhere.
See the leaves are falling taSty
From thcir place, up in the AR,
Tncv have lost their former beauty,
Which they never more shall wear.
This all tell IL that we're passing
From this world OF misery
TO our tinai nome Ger Nondcr,
iia the Ercat eternity.

TWO MILES FROM BLowTowK.

May 20, 1875.
Blowtovn is an old town with a
new name. Its geographical posit-
ion, is in Eastwood Grove. The
town is yet an infant in prosperity,
consisting ola public school building,
an M. DIS. Office and the remains OF
an old threshing machine.
The citizens of Blowtown have
been mathematically inclined, the
past winter. The school teacher,
Miss B. of Knoxville had occasion
to ask her scholars what was the
difference between San inch square,
and a square inch,' she deciding
that there was no difference. The
citizens became interested in the
matter. Discussions followed and
the people became mathematically
divided, about three parts becoming
known as the "no difference party
and the other part, being greatly In
the minority, got really alive to the
mathematical interestsof the rising
generation of Blowtown, and inform
ed the teacher that the "no diner.
ence" theory was educational
heresy and must " step down and
