Rules for the Journey Of Life.

The following rules from the papers
of DR.. West, according to his memo
randum, are thrown together as general
waymarks in the journey of life:
Never ridicu!e sacred things, or what
others may esteem as such, however
absurd they may appear to you.
Never show levity when people are
engaged in worship.
Never resent a supposed injury TIL
you know the views and motives of the
author of it. And on no occasion re-
late it.
Always to take the part of an absent
person, who is censured in company,
SO far as truth and propriety will allow.
Never to think worse of another Oh
account of his differing with me in
politics and religious subjects.
Not to dispute with a "a who is
more thar seventy years OF age, nor with
a woman, nor any sort of enthusiast.
Not to affect to be witty, or to jest so
as to wound the feelings of another.
To say "a little as possible of myself
and those who are near to me.
TOaim at cheerfulness without levity.
Never to court the favor of the rich
by fiattering either their vanities or
their vices.
To speak with calmness and deliber-
alton on all occasions. especially of cir
cumstances which tend to irritate.
Frequently to review my conduct and
note nv feelings.

A Daring Feat Above Niagara Falls.

A Daring Feat Above Niagara Falls.
On Thursday of last week the tug
Minerva, which is engaged in towing
mud scow5 from the Weiland Cinal to
the Niagara River, had proceeded well
out into the river just above the falls
with her usual tow of three loaded
scows when the lines holding the last of
the three parted and the scOw reeled
around and made for the rapids. jim
BimptOn was at the wheel, and with
great presence of mind he headed his
tug for the rapids and m ide a circuit
around the scow, which was now dam
gerOusIy near the rocks. In the mean
time the men boarded the two remain
ing scows and dumped them, rendering
them easier to handle. When they APP
preached near enough to the runaway a
man jumped aboard of her, fastened a
line and dumped her. And now came
the tug of war. They lay on very edge of
the rapids, when the throttle VAS thrown
wide open and the tug headed up stream
from the cat. -act. 1t was nip and tuck.
and they were about to cut away part
of the tow, when the tug seemed to
| gain little on the current, aud grad
ually emerged into safety with her full

Keeping Posted in History.

The American people are a reading
people, and there is no end to the books
that are made for them to read. Every
boy and girl have all the books they
will ever read, but it is too often the
case that they do not select the best for
them. All good authors in any class
are valuable, but some departments of
reading are better than others. Biog-
raphy and history are the most bene-
fetal to the average man or woman.
A knowledge of the men and women
that have lived. and the great deeds and
events of their lives. are things that are
most valuable TO all. With all the
reading that is done in our country.
there is a greater ignorance Of the
crowning events that have transpired
in our brief history than in any other
department of knowledge. But small
percentage of our people can tell much
that has been enacted by the people.

SlepDjuS Position.

The food passes from the stomach at
the right side, hence its passage is IA
cilated by going to sleep on the right
side. Water and other fluids flow equal
ly on a level. and it requires less power
to propel them on a level than upward.
The heart propels the blood to every
part of the body at each successive beat,
and it is easy to see that if the body is
in a horizontal position the blood will
be sent to the various parts of the sys-
tenn with greater ease with less expend-
iture of power, and more perfectly than
could possibly be done if one portion of
the body were elevated above a hori-
zontal line. On the other hand. if one
portion of the body is too low, the blood
does not return IS readily as it is car
ried thither; hence, there is an accum-
ulatiOn and ~distension, and pain soon
follOwes. If a person goes to sleep with
the head but a very little lower than
the body. he will either soon wake up,
or will die with apoplexy before the
morning. simply because the blood
could not get back from the brain as
fast as it vas carried to it. II a person
lays himself down on a level floor for
sleep, a portion of the head, at least. is
lower than the heart, and discomfort is
o induced: hence, very properly. the
world over, the head is elevated during
sleep.
The savage uses a log OF wood o. a
bunch of leaves; the civilized a pillow /;
and if this pillow is too thick, raising
the head to high. there is not blood
enough carried to the brain. and. as the
