Skating.

The following suggestions on
skating, given by the late DR.. Hall
years since, are timely, and applicable
at the present skating season, and ii
acted upon by those who indulge in
this pleasant and exhilarating,pastime,
will save much suffering. Avoid
skates which are strapped on the feet,
rs they prevent the circulation, and
The foot becomes frozen before the
skater is aware of it, because the tight
strapping benumbs the foot and
deprives it of feeling. The safest
kind are those which receive the fore
part of the foot in kind of toe, and
have stout leather around the heel,
buckling in front of the ankle only,
thus keeping the heel in place without
spikes or screws, adding greatly in
supporting the ankle.
1t is not the object so much to skate
fast, as to skate gracefully and this
is sooner and more easily learned by
skating with deliberation: while il
prevents over-heating, and diminishes
the chances of taking cold by cooling
off too soon afterwards.
If the wind is blowing, veil should
be worn over the face, at least Of

A SONG OF THE PERIOD.

Don't tell me of the pauper brood,
Who daily cry for a crust OF TODD;
The badly-clOthed or the evil-shOed,
Or the bare, blue toes of the crossing
sweeper:
Don't tell me OF the white, wan faces.
The dirty lodgings and crowded places,
Where Poverty grins and Sin grimaces!
"DOn't tell me of the awkward squad
The lOaiers who get kept in squad"
Or tired men, laid beneath the sod,
In graves where they get hOuse-rOom
cheaper
Dear me I've hardly time to think,
With business first, and then the rink,
And fellow must sometimes eat and drink,
'1Am my br9ther's keeper -
Don't tell me Of the murky air
That chOkes the lungs snd breeds despair
Where none are young, and few are fair,
And men drink deep, but women deeper
Don't tell me Of the moral Obliquity,
In those low dens Of vulgar iniquity
Aiy views NAV claim = ScFiptural antiquity,
Sam my brothers keeper p
What come and help, you say Oh no!
Some man Of cOarser grain may 60,
iTwOuld break me down to see such woe.
Have You no shepherd tor your sheep, sir,
An honest missionary, say,
A Biblew0man. By the way,
Pm rather ont OF cash, to-day,
Or wOali give trifie. Pray
Look in again I'll help 10 pay
To keep my brothers keeper.

struck twelve; they were still more
astonished when told them what had
brought me home. Ny father first
called me brave, good girl, and then
advised me nc. to be proud about II,
because it was the work of Providence,
and we were bound on all hands to
keep such story quiet about Farmer
Dickson's relation. The story was
kept between me and them; but my
Homecoming got wind, and Farmer
Dickson came in great hurry to know
why Mary had left her good situation.
Ny mother would not have relee-
lions cast on her child, so she took
him in the parlor, and what she said |
don't know, because the door was
fast shut but he came out rubbing
his hands and clapped me on the back,
saving ;"You are a fine girl, Mary,
and if Harry don't finish that business,
I'll make you to be Mrs. Dickson my
self"
/ think / have not much more to
tell. Harry did finish the business.
There were some people in our VII
lage that never got over the wonder
of it but | am proud to say the Dick
son family did not lose by me, for, ten
years after. Mrs. Williams died in her
inn, and left the property in equal
shares between me and her daughter,
Lady Winstanely, She had never
gone to the park but once, and then
She would neither eat, drink nor sleep
in the house, but saw her daughter and
her grandson, now heir to the estate,
and then went straight back to the
Gold Sheaf. She never took another
girl to stay with her, and what she
said about my leaving l never heard.
The maids had a story among them,
and they always stuck to it, that
went on account of something that
came down the chimney and frighten-
Ell Mrs. Williams out of her senses.
They said one thing that am inclined
to think might be true-that she never
liked to make eel soup after, nor cared
to look at red pepper.

MAJ may take place.
Do not sit down to rest a single half
minute; nor stand still, if there is
any wind nor stop a moment after
the skates are taken off but walk
about, so as to restore the circulation
about the feet and toes, asd to pre-
vent being chilled.
1t is safer TO walk home than to ride;
the latter is almost certain to give a
cold.
Never carry anything in the mouth
while skating, nor any hard substance
in the hand, nor throw any hard SUBJ
stance on the ice none but careless,
reckless ignoramus would thus en-
danger a fellow-skater a fall.
If the thermometer is below thirty.
and the wind is blowing, no lady or
child should be skating.
Always keep your eyes about you,
looking ahead and upward, not on the
ice, that you may not run against some
lady, child, or learner.
Arrange to have an extra garment,
thick and heavy, to throw over your
shoulders the moment you cease skat.
ing, and then walk home, or at least
half mile, with your mouth closed,
so that the lungs may not be quickly
chilled by the cold air dashing upon
them through tho open mouth /; if il
passes through the nose and head, il
is warmed before it gets to the lungs.
1t would be safe rule for no lady
or child to be on skates longer than an
hour at time.

From the Hon James Ross. Grand Lecturer Of /. o.
7. of Wisconsin.
From feeling of gratitude, | take
great pleasure in giving testimony to the eff
cacy Of Hale's Cough Cordial in easily curing
a persistent cough. For a month while en-
gagged nightly in public speaking, had sui
Tered with an annoying cough which stub
bornly resisted the various cough remedies
that had taken. Through the advice OF
friends fortunately gave Hale's Cough Cor
dial trial, when my coughing cased at once,
and the following day it had done its work
complete and ielt all right. The first dose
went directly to the cold spot in my lungs,
and in the midst OF a general warmth and
perspiration the stubborn cough seemed to
dissolve. In gratitude and esteem, l am

The Norwegian bark Surprise, Capt.
Weigner, now in this port, had an ex.
citing adventure lately. While the
vessel was at some port in Africa,
about six or seven months ago, a huge

length, got on board the ship without
the knowledge of any of the officers or
crew, and made his way into the hold.
The vessel sailed, and the snake was
not discovered until after landing at
Liverpool, when, upon proceeding to
remove the cargo, which consisted of
wool and other articles, the presence
of the constructor was made known.

How Hayes ARM WAS SAVED BY
A REBEL SURGEON.-At the battles of
Antietam and South Mountain colo
mel was wounded-his arm fearfully
shattered and he was borne from the
field by his brothers and private SOL
der. They carried him across the
country long and toilsome distance,
every step of of which was torture to
the sufferer, to the house Of Maryland
Union farmer. Then came the ubiqui-
tous Yankee surgeon with his glittering
knives and cruel saws, and made hasty
preparations to amputate the ailing
member. The farmer vehemently pro-
tested, declaring that the man would
die if the arm was cut off. The surgeon
insisted that the patient would die if
the arm was not taken off, and the colo
nel's brothers conceded with the sur
geon. But the determined old farmer
despatched his son on his fleetest horse
across the fields to the other side of the
mountain after his friend and neighbor,
a country physician. and rank rebel.
When the rustic Esculapius arrived
there ensued long contention with the
Yankee newer of bones over the suffer-
er, but the result was that the arm was
saved, and after some weeks of careful
nursing the colonel galloped off to join
his regiment, comparatively sound
man. He subsequently became Cover
nor of Ohio, and now fills the Presiden-
tial chair.-Ph5l0delphia Bulletin.
