GRIr.-An honest-faced stranger cal
led on Justice Potter the other day and

was for joining couple in the holy

'The fee is 90 in case you come here"
was the reply.

handed out q roll of bills; ''there's $3

stove, SO for dishes, 50 to run the house
on, and-and that's every blamed cent?

Justice.
''There's the pile" replied the young
man, "but I'll knock the 80 off for
dishes and give it to you, for I'm bound

We have to bile 'taters in the tea

DRINKING WATER.-Dr. Hall 10 op.
posed to the immoderate drinking Of
water. He says: The longer one puts
off drinking water in the morning, es-
pecially in the Summer, the less he will
require during the day; If much is drank
during the forenoon the thirst often in
creases, and very unpleasant fullness
is observed in addition to . metallic
taste in the mouth. The less o man
drinks the better for him, beyond .
moderate amount. The moro water .
man drinks the more strength he hns
to expend in getting rid of it, for all
the fluid taken into the system must 10
carried out, and as there is but little
nourishment in water, tea, coffee, beer,
and the like, more strength is expend.
ed carving them out of the system than
they impart to it. The more he drinks
the more he must perspire. either by
the lungs or through the skin; the more
he perspires the more carbon is taken
from the system; but this carbon is ne
cessary for nutrition, hence the less ..
man is nourished the less strength he-
has.
Drinking waterlargely diminishes the
strength in two ways, and yet many are
under the impression that the more wa
ter swallowed the more thoroughly Is
the system washed ont" Thus, the
less we drink at meals the better for u.s..
If the amount were limited to a single
cup of hot tea or hot milk and water At
each meal, an immeasurable good would
result to us all. Many persons have
fallen into the habit of drinking seve-
raj glasses of cold water, or several cups
Of hot tea or coffee at meals. All such
will be greatly benefited by breaking it
up ut once. It may be very well to
drink little at each meal, and, per-
haps, it will be found that in all cases
it is much better to take . single cup
of hot tea at each meal than . glass OF
cold water, however pure.

This letter viii have been written in

clearer and more favorable view Of AZ.
gernon Charles Swinburne's life. The
larger portion of his time is passed at
his residence, HOLLYWOOD, Henly-ou-

out his lyrical verse and glowing criti-
cal prose with equal facility and vigor.
At times be runs up to London for 3
few days, commuuing with his friends,
among whom Rossetti aud Morris are
perhaps the most distinguished. When
he seems to be the most at leisure, and
careless of literary reputation, he often
is engaged upon some laborious pro-
duction, as was the case during the
composition of his epical drama, "Both-
WE'LL" the longest and in some respects
the most significant of modern drama
tic poems. There is no doubt that
Swinburne has been careless, and even
defiant of public opinioa, and often
unjust in the satire and scorn with
which he has retaliated upon the meaner
class of his censors. The wonder il,
considering the attacks made upon him,
and the gross miscomprehension TO
which he has been retaliated, that be
has not been confirmed in wild and
reckless career. His poetic genius, ar.
dent scholarship, and generous aspira-
tions have saved him from becoming
either misanthrope or profligate. But
he has long passed the errors and be-
wilderment Of youth, and become in
his own country . man Of recognized
leadership.

Amid the purple heather,

While earth was praising God aloud
Her patience praised Him mutely.

And where she stayed. a dusky speck
