PICKING THE EARS.

Picking the ears is most mischievous
practice in attempting to do this with
hard substances an unlucky motion has
many time pierced the drum and made
it as useless a pierced India rubber life
preserver; nothing sharper or harder than
the end of the little finger, with the nail
paired, ought ever to be introduced into
ear, unless by a physician. Persons are
often seen endeavoring to remove the
''wax' of the ear with the head of a pin :.
this ought never 10 be done; first, be-
cause it not only endangcrs the rupture of
ear by being pushed too far in, but if not
so for, it may CRATE against the drum, ex-
cite Inflammation and an ulcer which viii
finally eat all the parts away, especially Of
scrofulous constitution; second, hard
substances have often slipped in, and
caused the necessity of painful, dangerous
and expensive operations to fish or cut
out; third, the wax is manufactured by
nature to guard the entrance from dust,
insects and unmodified cold air, and when
it has subserved its purpose it becomes
dry, scaly, light. and in this condition is
easily pushed outside by new formations Of
wax within.

a STRONG RRCON;MENDArroN-

Going over the Lowell Railroad the
other day was a fussy little man, who was
in evident doubt as to which of two New
Hampshire cities it would be advisable fo.
him to stop over night. He questioned
the conductor as long as that worthy
would stop to listen. and turned to the
other occupant of the sest, a thick-necked
short-haired party, and queried:
'Is c. good place to stop att"
'Fus rate" growled his companion.
Did you ever stop there ?" inquired the
anxious traveller.
'Yes; went up there to stay for one
night, and stopped for ten years."
you don't say!' said the delighted
interrogation. "What'd you DON, where'd
you stay?'
"Opened store, and STAYED in tb,
State Prison." responded the gruff one
and the little gentleman changed seats an6
'ars at the next station.

TREES AND RAIN.

The influence of trees upon rain and the
general moisture of the atmosphere, which
has been discussed of late, receives a
strong illustration from the island of Santa
Cruz, West Indies. A person year or
two since, who spent the months of Febru-
ary, March and April upon the island, says
that when he was there twenty years ago, the
island was a garden of freshness, beauty
and fertility; woods covered the hills,
trees were everywhere abundant, and rains
were profuse and frequent The memory
OF its loneliness called him back at the
beginning Of OF the year, when, to his as
tonishment, he found about ono-third of
the Island, which is about twenty-five
miles long, an utter desert. The forest
and trees generally had been cut away,
rainfalls had ceased, and q process Of
desiccation, beginning at one end of the
land, had advanced gradually and ire
sistibly upon the island, until for seven
miles it is dried and desolate as the sea-
shore. Houses and beautiful plantations
have been abandoned, and the people
watch the advance of desolation, unable to
resist it, and knowing to certainty that
the time when their own habitations, their
gardens and fresh fields will become a part
Of the waste is fast approaching. The
whole island is doomed to become a desert.
The inhabitants believe, and the opinion
seems to be confirmed, that this sad result
Is owing to the destruction of the trees
upon the island.

To retain or recover health, persons
should be relieved from al anxiety con-
cerning disease. The mind has power
over the body, for person to think he has
a disease viii often produce that disease.
This we see effected when the mind is in
tensely concentrated on the disease of an
other. 1t is found in the hospitals
that surgeons aud physicians who make .
speciality of certain diseases are liable to
die of them themselves and the mental
strain is so great that sometimes people
die of diseases which they have only in inn
agination. We have seen q person sea-
sick in anticipation of a voyage, ere reach
ing the vessel. We have known persons
to die of an imaginary cancer in the stom-
ach. when they had no cancer or any other
mortal disease. A blndfolded man,
slightly pricked in the arm, had tainted
and died from believing that he was bleed
ing to death.
Therefore, well persons to remain SO,
should be cheerful and happy, and sick
persons should hare their attention di-
verted as much as possible from them
selves. 1t is by their faith that men are
saved, and it is by their faith they die.
As man thlnketh so is he. If he wills
not to died be can often live in spite of
disease, and if he has little or no attach
ment to life he will slip away as easily as a
child will fall asleep. Men live by their
souls. and not by their bodies. Their
bodies have no life Of themselves, they
are only receptacles of life-tenements for
their souls, and the viii has much to do in
containing the physical occupancy of Civ
ing it up.

Speaking of the display of centen-
nial relics at an old house in Beacon
street, the Boston Transcript says:
Among the articles of arms and equip
ments, wearing apparel, personal or
naments, trinkets, sllverware, etc,
none will attract more attention or he
better worthy of it than the sampler
displaying the grand Hancock house
and its surroundings. Though only
the house itself is recognizable IN this
embroidered picture, the topography
of the whole region as it then existed
is plainly set forth. IL matters little
that the perspective is of the Chinese
sort, and the garden tulips at the feet Of
the scarlet-and-purple clad proprietor
on his prancing steed are as big as the
negro servant doffing his hat to the
equestrian, or that the rooster growing
in Brookline and the dog barking
across the Back Bay are relatively of
elephant size The needlework never
theless shows the peak of Beacon Hill
with the beacon still upon it, the State
House site enclosed by the whitewash-
eel fence Of the Hancock cOwpasture,
and the stone wall at the foot of the
grounds, with vessels upon it and
swans rs large as the ships. Other
such personal relics are = suit OF hand

How TO KEEP MEAT FRESH A LONG
TiNE.-We have authority, the Inter-
Ocean, for saying that the following
recipe is worth the subscription price
of any newspaper in the land:
As soon as the animal heat is out of
the meat, slice it up eady for cooking.
Prepare large jar by scalding well
with hot salt and water Mix salt and
pulveri ed saltpeter, one tablespoonful
OF saltpcter being enough for teacur-
fl of salt. Cover the bJttom of the jar
with n sprinkle Of salt and pepper, the
same as ifjust going TO the table. and
continue in this manner till the jar is
full Fold a cloth or towel and wet it
in strong salt and water, in which q
little of the S; peter is dissolved.
Press the cloth closely over the meat
and set it in cool place. Be sure ard
press the cloth on tightly rs each laver
is removed, and your meat will keep
for months. 1t is good plan to let
the meat lie over night after it is sliced
before packing. Then drain off all the
blood that oozes from it. 1t will be
necessary to change the cloth occa-
sionally, or take it off and wash it
first in cold water-then scald in salt
and. water as at first In this way
farmers can have fresh meat the year
round. al have kept beef" says the
writer. chat was killed the 18th of
February, till the 2lst of June Then
| packed large jar Of veal in the same
way during the dog-days, and it kept
six weeks"

STRAWBERRY SHORTCAKE-Straw
berries being now in season, a recipe
to make the palatable dish known as
wberry shortcake willn be amiss.
Rub a piece of butter the size of an
egg into little flour, pour into it two
cups of sour cream, one teaspoonful
of baking soda and little salt. Mix
into dough, and roll out into cakes
about one-half inch thick and ten
inches in diameter. Prick with fork
and bakein quick oven. When done
split them open with knife and spread
with nice butter, lay the bottom piece
on plate and cover with Strawberries
about an inch deep. 1t is better to
have the Strawberries spriDklcd with
sugar few hours before they arc put
into the cake, with the crust side down
and layer of Strawberries again.
Over this lay the bottom piece OF
another cake and more Strawberries
and put on the top piece, right side up.
Serve with sweet cream.
