"A WORD FOR MOTHER.

Send the children TO bed with kiss and a
smile,
Sweet childhood will iarTy at best but awhile;
And soon they will pass from the portals of
home,
The wilderness ways Of their life work TO
roam,
Yes, tuck them in bed with a gentle ''good
niehtin
The mantle of shadows is vailIng the light;
And maybc-GOd knOwsl-nn this sweet
little face
May fall deeper shadows on life's weary race
les, say it:-"God bless my dear children,
prayr'
u may be the last you may say it for ayei
The night may be long ere You see them
again;
And molherless children may call you in vain
Drop sweet bcnedfctiOns on each little head,
And fold them in prayer as they nestle IN bed !;
a guard of bright angels around them
invite;
The spirit may slip from its moorings tonight

stood trembling with exhaustion, and
cDnld not 20 another st=p. He tottered
and fell almost Oh ii- rider, who, rising,
and staggering about in the deep snow,
struck heavily against an upright object.
Could it b. the sign board post which
stood on the little knoll just east Of his
home.
Oh. mol Horror more chilling than
the wind and snow. Ii was the Lone
Tree. All these terrible hours he had
been moving in a circle,
All this brave struggle had been for
nothing. Here was "a crisis. One mo
ment Of indecision, and the paralyziDg
cold would conquer; hut early training
and a noble nature decided. Faithful to
the last, Dalton quickly took the mail
bag from the saddle, nerved himself for
the final effort, and then went founder
ing in the snow to reach-wherever his
destiny should lead him.
Time wore on. Strength and will
were ebbing fast. In desperation the
unfortunate man endeavorcd to cry out
for help, but his indistinct utterances
were forced back by the kissing, merci-
less wind. He was fast losing his mimi.
His steps were numbered. \ faintness
came over him.
Was it a cruel mirage that trifled with
himl Over the drifts, through the
night, shone the bright, cheerful light of
a fire, inviting him to comfort and home.
Too late! He uttered faint cry, then
fell in the snow, yielding, deceptive
snow.

FOR ALL FEMALE COMPLAINTS,

in young or old, married or single, at the
dawn of womanhood or the change of
life, DIR. Pierce's Favorite Prescription
manifests such a positively remedial in-
fiuence as to call forth tl= IoIidest praise
from all who use it.
Mr.. JOHN y kinney, druggist, Of
Knob Noster. Mo-, writes as follows:
''Dr. Pierce, Buffalo, n. Y, Dear Sir
Your medicines sell better than any
other keep, and give universal satisfac-
ton. The people are especially delight
with your Favorite Prescription, and it
seems to be favOrite among all that
have ever used it." 1t is sold by drug
gists and dealers in medicines.

OUR HAIRS NuMEERED.-S Somebody
has been to the trouble OF calculating
the average number Of hairs which grow
OH an average persons head. 1t Is
found that the number varies ACCORDING
to the color Of the hair. Light or blonde
hair is the most luXuriant, the average
of this color being 40, 600. When the
hair is brown the number is much less,
being only 11O, 900, while black hairs
reach only the average amount Of lO3,-
900. 1t might naturally be supposed
that light haired person, having the
most hair, would have the greatest
weight to carry, but it is not so. That
which is lightest in color Is lightest in
weight; and lady with abundant ilaxen
locks is as light-headed as one whose
tresses are of raven hue. Hence it
follows that the former is Of IA finer text

a HORSE STORY.-A stable keeper ia
Rochester has hack horse Of which the
following stories are told: At the end
Of the stable i a water faucet, under
which has been placed Il large tub for
the hJrses 10 drink from. When this
animal is thirsty he turns ON the faucet
with his teeth and holds his head uLder
the running stream until his thirst is
quenehed, and then turns the faucet of
again, and with knowing look at his OBJ
servers, trots back to hisStaIl During the
present spell Of cold weather the water
has been allowed to run to prevent its
freezing in the pipes One evening, when
the men were elsewhere engaged, lie
went for n drink in his usual manner,
and after he got through turned the fau-
eet of. The consequence was the pipes
got frozen up and had to De thawed out
before the horse could queneh his thirst
in his accustomed manner. Affidavits in
support Of these statements most people
will regard as necessary.
WHEN a Connecticut deacon uud,ed

TYPHOID GERMS AND THE GERM
THEORY OF DISEASE.
(The Herald.)

Professor Tyndall has recently made a
scientific communication to the public, in
his usual lucid and felicitous style, which
will do him more credit than his famous
Belfast speech. Though not trained in
medical science he has done it great SER
vice in bringing to publicity the great
Investigations of more retiring scientists
regarding the germ theory of typhoid
and other diseases. The conclusions arriv-
ed at are not, indeed, original. but deserve
zone the less careful attention and analv-
sis by the medical fraternity, on the prin-
ciple of a great classic writer" he that
knows where knowledge is is next to him
who has it,"
One of the earliest and most eminent in.
quirers in this field, and the one chiefly
followed by Professor Tyndall, was Dr..
Budd, whose labors led him to the convic-
