l. Subscribers who do not give express notice
to the contrary are considered as wishing TO
continue their subscriptions.

of their newspapers, the publisher may con-
tinue to send them until all arrearages are
paid.

newspapers from the offices to which they are
directed, the law holds them responsible until

out informing the publisher, and the newspa-
pers are sent TO the former direction, they are
held responsible.

GOOD-NIG II T.

If could only lay me down to rest,
Crossing nv weary hands upon my breast,
And shut my troubled eyes without fear,
Knowing that they would never open here
How blissful it must be, both worlds in sight,
To say my tired goodnight.
If only from the fretting cares of Time,
To truth eternal I at once may climb,
No longer to count the graves whereon tread,
But in one moment be all cOmforted-
II such could be, what Joy in upward flight,
To sing my tired goodnight.
This flooding tide of yearnings will not cease; ;
I cannot reach to touch the lips OF Peace;
Nor can gather to my sObbing heart
The white-winged angels God has set apart,
Yet haply may find them all in sight
After some tired goodnight.
What wonder, then, that should long to rest,
Crossing my weary hands upon my breast,
To shut my troubled eyes without a tear,
Knowing that they would never open here;
To say to earth, with heaven alone in Signt,
My TapturOus goodnight.

When a man is imprisoned for ever
so short a time, let his intellectual and
moral, as well as his industrial, educa-
ton be taken up at precisely the point
where it was relinquished outside. If
he is scholar, let his scholarship come
into play. If he has robbed, let him re-
store the amount robbed before his re-
turn to freedom. Let him learn the
value of daily earnings aUd accumulated
treasures by accumulations and earn
ings of his own. That is, let not So
ciety infiict a purely arbitrary but a
natural and logical punishment.-G Gail

CROMwELL's BIBLE.-In the collec-
tion of bibles in the Centennial Exhibit
ton is a copy of Cromwelps Bible, so
called because he published an edition
of such size that each soldier could carry
it in his knapsack. a soldier was found
dead at Naseby in whose knapsack
copy was found penetrated by bullet,
which reached that verse in Ecclesias-
tics, Remember now thy Creator in
the days of thy youth" The book is
five inches long, two and half wide,
and one and three-quarters thick, weighs
only eight and half ounces, and is the
property of the American Bible Society.
1t belonged to John Milton, and was
printed in 1856 by John Field, printer to
Parliament. There are but three other
copies in the country, one of which is
in the library of the Boston Athen8um,
another in Harvard University Library,
and a third in the library of the late
George Livermore.

I suppose it was foolish, but couldn't
help worrying all the time"
81 don't know as it was foolish, hus-
band. But hitch the horse, and bring
the bag in. 1 want to talk with you"
When the bag was deposited in the
house, Mrs. Pope said:
$50 you were nervous about us, then?"
ayes. / don't remember ever being
SO nervous before in my life.n
"Well, husband, was nervous, too.
1 couldn't help thinking what could |
do if bear should come down from the
mountain after sheep"
"Why, common sense would tell you
what to do; shut the door, take care of
yourself and baby, and let the sheep go.
"Do you think so, husband ?"
"Of course 1 do. What else could you
have done?n
"You will see if you go out behind the
barn and look"
"Behind the barn? What do you
mean ?"
81 mean what say. Go and look be-
hind the barn."
Mr.. Pope started out in the greatest
wonder, while the wife buried her face
in the baby's apron, to smother the
womanly tears she could no longer re-
strain.
To his utter establishment, Mr.. Pope
found the dead bear behind the barn,
with the pitchfork sticking in its side,
When be went in and heard the story
from his wife, he fully realized that
something had happened during his ab-
sence, and that be had more reason than
| ever to be thankful,
l am indebted to the wife of James
Harris, Esq, of st. Johnsbury, VT, fol
this history of Mrs. POpe's encounter
with the bear. Mrs. Harris father
Rev. Timothy Locke, lived not fal
from Mr.. Pope's house at the time. Mrs
Harris still distinctly remembers seeing
the bear skin nailed on the outside o.
the barn, where it remained all sum-
mer, while Mrs. Pope became famous
throughout the region for her heroism

Chemistry of the Fattening Process.

A lean COW or OK is in very differ
ent condition, chemically considered,
from fat animals of the same kind. In
the first place the animal consists of
about two-thirds water, the fat one of
only half, that is, in total weight. A
fat animal is in a dry condition, poor
animal is like some of our bog meadows,
very wet. When the fattening process
begins, the water commences to disap-
pear, and fat or suet takes its place, and
the increase in bulk during the process
is largely of adipose matter. It's a Gu
rious circumstance that during fatten-
ing, the protends, or heterogeneous COM
pounds, increase only about seven per
cent. and the bone material or morgan
ic substance only one and half per
cent.
The cost to farmer of fattening an
OK is much greater at the close of the
process than at the commencement that
is, increase in bulk or dryweight at that
period is much more costly. If it costs
three cents a pound for bulk for the
first month after poor animal is put
in the fattening-stall, it will cost five
cents the last month. If then a farmer
consults his money interests, he will
not carry the increase of fat beyond q
certsin point.-Jour7'Gl of Chemistry,

ade, and, addressing the interpreter,
expressed his repentance. he threw
the blame of his crime on fate, and said
he bore no malice against the French.
He then exhsrted bis two comrades to
die bravely. Seeing them utterly pros
trste, he apostrophized them as follows
"Sons of dogs, are you going to die like
womenP Yesterday you promised me to
die praying, and behold you so down
cast that you have not the strength to
open your lips, or even to think at this
solemn moment as becomes good Mus
sulmans." On the way to the scaffold
BOu-Zian continued to recite verses from
the Koran in firm voice. He was be-
headed first. Among the crowd were
the relations of the criminals, who were
to take charge of the bodies after death.
Immediately after the execution the
Arabs approached the guillotine, and,
laying the corpses across mules, carried
them away to their tribe. The bodies
were then carefully washed and the
heads replaced and sewn on with thread.
The edges of the flesh were joined with
great difficulty, and when this operation
was terminated the heads were COM
pletely stuck on TO the body with a
cravat-like band of molten pitch The
bodies were then wrapped in white cot
ton shrouds and carried to the grave,
followed by the relations and friends

A person who was sick called on four en-
inent physicians and described his case as
fOllOws-dull heavy pain in the head, bad
taste in the mouth, dizziness when rising
up suddenly. variable appetite, some
times poor and sometimes craving, feeling
of distress after eating, belching of wind at
ter eating, with sour stomach attended with
a burning sensation, frequent sick head
aches, bowels torpid, hands and feet cover
ed with cold clammy sweat at times, dry
hacking cough, pains in the back and sides,
with occasional pains about the shoulders;
great feeling of prOstration and weakness, a
sort of itching all over the body at times,
skin dark and swarthy, eyes tinged with yell
low, urine scauty, and high colored at
times, depOsiting a sediment after stand
ing, and was very Responding in his spirits.
Now, what was the matter? The first
doctor said it was liver complaint; the next
one said it was dyspepsia; the next kidney
complaint, and the last one said 1t was I'M
purity Of the blood, because his blood was
thick and stagnant. Well, none Of these
doctors succeeded in effecting cure, be-
cause they were all wrong, and at the
same time they were all right, because
this man had each one Of these diseases
combined, and while one doctor was
trying to cure the one disease the
others remained. These physicians made a
mistake in not treating all Of these diseases
at one time. The country is to-day full OF
Just such cases. IL they would take the

this srticle-made by the Shakers-is so

How to Cure a Bad Memory.

Your memory is bad perhaps, but l
can tell you two secrets that will cure
the worst memory. One l mentioned
above-to read a subject when strongly
interested. The other is to not only
read, but think. When you have read
paragraph or a page, stop, close the
book, and try to remember the ideas on
that page, and not only recall them
vaguely in your mind, but put them into
words and speak them out. Faithfully
follow these two rules, and you have the
golden keys of knowledge. Besides in
attentive reading, there are other things
injurious to memory. One is the habit
of Swimming over newspapers, items of
news, smart remarks, bits of informa-
ton, political reflections, fashion notes,
all in a confused tumble, never to be
thought of again, thus diligently cult
waiting a habit of careless reading, hard
to break. Another is the reading of
trashy novels. Nothing is so fatal to
reading with profit as the habit of run
ming through story after story, and for
getting them as soon as read. l know
a gray-haired woman, a lifelong lover
of books, who sadly declares that her
mind has been ruined by such reading

Eight Days without Food.

Two men-Charles K. ODER, of Bev-
erlv, and John Dolan, of Salem, in q
Gloucester fishing-vessel on the Grand
Banks-started from their vessel in a
dory, without food or water, for the
purpose of drawing travis, but before
they reached the buOys, a dense
fog set in so that they were
unable to return to the vessel, which
they vainly tried to do. They remained
in the boat eight days, rowing in the
fog, during which time they tasted not
a morsel Of food, and only succeeded in
catching a little water, i'll their OIL
cloths, during short rain, becoming,
of course, weak and emaciated, their
suferings from thirst and hunger being
beyond description, when the fog lifted
and they discovered schooner about
five miles distant, lying at anchor. In
spired with new hope, weak as they
were, they bent to the oars, and finally
succeeded in reaching the vessel, which
proved to belong to St. Pierre, manned
by French crew. Unable to climb over
the vessels side, they were hauled on
board, where they were treated with
the utmost kindness Ne10burypeTt
