"knom thy Opportunity"

The grim monster, Death, was stealthily
approaching. l could almost feel his hot,
fiery breath upon my forehead. My faith
less goddess, Hygea, had utterly deserted
me. Only now and then would Morpheus
belriend me, but on this suspicious day,
he had deigned TO nIoisten my eyelids with
heavenly ambrosia, and l slept. As
slept, behold, had a dream! | thought
that was roaming upon foI eign soil width
err my physician had sent me 10 recover
my health. was in great metropolis
one of the grand marts of the world. In
one of my slrolls CHANGED to meet man
who had in his hand u handsomely-bound
volume, entitled The Peoples Common
Sense Medical Adviser" and who said that
he was an agent for the sale of the book
Tho title was such novel one that l was
impelled to give the work a casual notice
As hastily glanced over its pages, | OBJ
served that ii contained treatises not COM
monty found in medical works. But
had too many times been hoaxed by APP
pearances, aud determined that | would
have nothing to do with ii. a voice with
in me, like a faithful mentor, whispered,
"HROW Hy CpPortniyj i'll that book is
thy salyation! l began reasoning with
myself. Although doubtful and dislrust-
fol, yet put forth my hand TO take the
book, aud, lol the agent was gone l was
miserable. In my agony l awoke. Great
drops OF perspiration were upon my brow
BY my bedside was a friend who had call
ed during my slumber TO see me. Said
my friend, ~ have brought with me a
book, just published, which / thought
might interest you" One glance at the
work, and was assured that it was "Tha
Peoples Common Sense Medical Adviser"
by DR.. r. V. Pierce, of Buffalo, n. Y.
Surely this was the veritable book which l
had seen In my dreams. My friend loaned
me the work, and every day, as my strength
permitted, peruscd its pages. Although
1t contained very interesting treatises on

Temperaments, Nursing of the Sick, etc.,

truthfully depict my feelings, and appar-
emily understands my constitutional len
denotes, must know Just what my physi-
cal system demands. | will trust my case

That veteran agricultural paper, tho Cui-
tiudtor and Country Gentleman, avails itself
U the new year to make general review
of the recent progress OF agriculture, and
to give an opinion as to its prospects. 1t
comes to the conclusion that the progress
going on in agriculture is chiefly in its re-
lations as a business rather than as a sci
ence. 1t is matter Of dollars and cents to
turn out tho largest product at tho lowest
cost, even though the rationale of the sue
cessivo steps in the process may not be
cOmprehended and experience rather than
science is looked TO as afguide. There
seems TO be no good reasons why the last
quarter of the current century should not
witness a greater degree OF prosperity
among American farmers than any former
period in their history. The foreign mar.
ket and our means for employing II are in
creasing at rapid pace. Although the de-
velopment OF the past quarter-century in
the area of our CRAIG and cattle producing
territory has somewhat slackened, the pres
sure upon the productive resources of
Statos already we'll cultivated must increase
until greater inducements than ever are af-
forded for opening up new regions; and
the financial capital of the country is not
only immensely larger than thirty years
ago, but is everywhere diffused.
By way of offset to this CHEEKY view OF
American agricultural prospects we have
n review OF the agricultural year in Great
Britain from the London Field, which is
the concentrated essence OF the character
istic British growl. Nothing appears 10
have gone well with the British farmers,
or II anything did prosper the Field has
omitted 10 mention it. The farmers wheat
plants were sodden with rain, weakened
by excessive frosts and rapid thaw and
thlnned with wire-worm ravages the ar
rival of his lambs was greeted with frosls
and SHOWS; he has found it hard to fatlen
his sheep upon rotten turnips and in folds
knee-deep in mud and slush and his
heavy crop of grasses, by reason of the wet
weather was only partially made into hay,
and that of an inferior sort. Strikes and
combinations; high prices and an increas-
cd labor bid a late harvest and short crop,
aud the ravages Of the foot and mouth dis
ease have contributed to make the year
gloomy one. The single bright spot in the
year was the splendid start given to all
spring corn at seeding time. juno saw the
oat aud barley plants golden and waving
but with July came wind and rains, the
winds blew into storms and the rains bo-
came foods, and the Oat and barley crop
was stricken fiat. To this gloomy review
the Fyeld adds still gloomer prognostlca-
tions for the coming year, which II Is not
worth while to quote, as they seem 10 have
no substantial foundation, aud a kindly
Providence may very probably disappoint
them.

RUSTIC PICTURE FRAMES. Very pretty
picture-frames may be made of Norway
spruce. The wood obtained, It is TO be
heated little, to dry it quickly, aud then
with dull knife scraped clean of its leaves,
lin the direction of its foliage,) taking care
not 10 destroy the woOd-buds. For other
materials you will need glue, a vanishing
brush, little copper wire, penknife, tack
hammer, and scissors or pliers for cutting
the wire. Flat pieces of soft pine board are
also needed, on which the whole can be
laid and pressed into shape. The desired
size and shape of the fra me must be PEN
ciled on the board, so that tho work may
be perfectly true, and even then the wood
is arranged, guided by the drawing, till the
general outline is complete, and glued with
tiny drops carefully applied or pinned delt-
ly with tiny tape pins. The outline being
perfect, it is enriched with small twigs and
clusters of wood buds glued, or better still
pinned here and there in places which need
shaping. When tho glue is tff dsengage
the frame from the board by inserting a pa
per cutter between them, aud pushing the
heads of the pins we'll in, cut off ali the
points projecting through with a pair of
scissors. Next, laying the frame face down,
iasten an extra spruce stick all around TO
give stiffness to the back, and lastly, var
nish the whole with gum-shellac varnish,
which gives soft and nrm lustre to the
wood preferable TO the shiny effect of other
varnish.-iSt. Nicholas.
