Cloud Banners of the Alps.

Among the most exquisite scenes which de-
light the eye of the European traveller are those
wonderful rOse-colored cloud-banners, floating
from the Alpine cliffs. But it is only in the sun
light that Nature hangs out these beautiful
tokens. So it is only in the glow of health-the
sunlight of our inner being-that nature re-
veals those physical cloud-banncrs, the rosy
cheek" and "cherry lip" to praise which every
poet OF the earth has invoked the Muse to aid
him. But they are us rare as the cynical Hood
conceived Christian charity to be. Woman
eager to retain this charm, resorts to French
art and rONqe. The effect is similar to that
which would be produced by substituting
auctioneers' flags for the delicate glowing cloud
banners of the Alps. If woman would aid Ma.
ture instead of adopting art, would seek health
instead of vainly trying to mask disease she
would not only win the greatest charm of wo-
NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. she she would avert
much misery both from herself and others. Dr.
Plerce's Favorite Prescription has received the
highest praise from thousands of pale, delicate,
suffering women. One bottle often affords more
relief than months of treatment by caustcs and
other medicines. 1t is harmless in any cOndi-
ton of the system, and its use often renders
the modest invalid exempt from that most try
ing of ordeals-a personal consultation with a
physician. 1t is the duty of every woman to
become familiar with the cause and symptoms
of the many diseases to which her peculiar or
SANITATION renders her liable, and also to learn
the proper means of preventing these maladies
The Peoples Medical Adviser contains an ex-
tensiye treatise upon ''Woman and her Dis
eases" The author also advises courses of
domestic treatment, which will often render

Lime and Salt.

Professor Johnson recommends
for fertllizing purposes, to mix one
bushel of salt to two bushels of dry
lime under cover; allow the mixture
to decompose gradually, thus form
ing chemical union. For this pur>
pose the mixture should be made six
weeks before use, or still better, two
months, the heap being turned over
occasionally. This salt and lime
mixture when applied at the rate of
twenty or thirty bushels per acre,
forms an excellent top dressing for
many crops. 1t acts powerfully on
the vegetable matter Of soils fifty
six bushels applied to turnips have
produced as large crops as barn.
yard manure. 1t is destructive TO
grubs and insects in the soil. Like
salt, it attracts moisture from The
air, and is very useful against
drought. Its decomposing power is
remarkable, and it three or four
bushels of it are mixed with q load
Of muck. the latter will be thus tho

A Legend Of The Evil One.

One part Of the castle Of Nurem-
burg, called the Heather Tower,
was built by the Romans 1900 years
ago, but the main buildings date
back for about eight hundred and
fifty years only. Near the entrance
of the court yard is q we'll cut
through the solid rock to the depth
of 335 feet. They were thirty years
in building it. The maid who showed
us the we'll, let down some lighted
candles in tin reflector, until they
looked to be niles below us; and by
these We saw the entrance to the Sc
cret passages which led to several
parts of the city. Entering the
small court yard, We saw in the
centre Of it the lime tree planted
500 years ago by Cunisunde, at the
time of the departure Of her lord,
Henry l., on the crusade. She said:
eff this tree flourishes, my lord will
return to me in health and safety !;
but if it dies, l will cease to hope
for him." 1t is needless to add that
he returned, to the great JOY Of his
beautiful queen. On the founda.
tions of the old heather tower is
built the first Christian chapel in
Germany. In this chapel, over the
arch before the altar, is painted the
fat face of a jovial monk, with his
tongue run out at the side Of his
mouth. Upon asking Valet why
that was there, he pointed to one of
the four stone columns of the room,
in which there was vi lille crack,
and gave us the following legend:
While the castle was being built,
the archbishop declared that upon
the return Of the emperor from his
campaign, the chapel of the castle
must be consecrated. The monk
who had charge Of this work made
known this decree to the architect,
who told him it was impossible to
finish the building at that time, be-
cause there was wanting four large
columns which lie had to bring from
a distance. The monk that night
lay upon his couch in sore distress,
thinking Of all the souls that would
70 to perai,ion because Of there be.

when suddenly he became conscious

The Land of the Missing.

In one of William Black novels,
he makes one of his people vaguely
describe land which lay across the
sea, to which had fed all who were
numbered among the missing, who
there lived untrammeled by the fol-
lies or misfortuncs of the past. But
the land of the missing does not al
ways care for its children. Sad
wrecks 60 down in the surging seas
which surround it. One case, says
the indianapolis Herald, saddest OF
all in the compass Of memory, pre-
sents itself.
y boy, an only child, the idol of
cultured and wealthy parents, START
ed for school one morning with his
mothers kiss warm upon his lips,
and bis books in his hands, and
never returned. lie was only eight
years old, was as handsome rs a
cherub, and was known everywhere
among his acquaintance as Il good
boy. lie was effeininate in nature,
and never ordinarily venturea upon
bcyish escapades. lie was to have
a rabbit for his dinner, anil he asked
as favor that it might be ''stewed
with a heap Of gravy" The din
ner was prepared, but ne never
came to cat it. There had been
nothing to make him dissatisfied
with his surroundings, and encour-
age the idea that he run away. He
was timid and Shrinking, and, as
everybody believed, too good and
too cowardly to run away. Six
teen years later his father and mo-
ther met him on a Mississippi rive
steamboat, bloated, drunken, pro-
fame, brutal gambler. Death would
have kept him beautiful and Iowa.

MEDICAL.

Symptoms of a Diseased Liver.
DAIN in the right side, under the edge
of the ribs, increases on pressure
sometimes the pain is in the lettslde; the
patient is rarely able to lie on the lett
side; sometimes the pain is felt under
the shoulder-b blade, and it frequently ex-
tends to the top of the shoulder, and is
sometimes mistaken for rheumatism in
the arm. The stomach is affected with
loss ofappetite and sickness; the bowels
in general are costive, sometimes alterna-
tive with lax; the head is troubled with
pain, accompanied with dull, heavy
sensation in the back part. There is
generally a considerable loss ofmemory,
accompanied with painful sensation of
having left undone something which
ought 10 have been done. A slight, dry
cough is sometimes an attendant. The
patient complains Of WEAKNESS and de-
bility he is easily startled, his feet are
cold or burning, and he complains of
prickly sensation of the skin; his spirits
are low; and although he is satisfied that
exercise would be beneficial to him, yet
he can scarcely summon up fortitude
enough to try it. In fact, he distrusts
every remedy. Several of the above
symptoms attend the disease, but cases
have occurred few ofthem existed,
yet examination the body, after death,
has shown the LIVER to have been ex-
tensively deranged.
