Consumption a Disease Of Indoor Life.

Among the natives of Senegambia
pulmonary affections are not only near
", but absolutely, unknown; yet a
single year passed in the over-crowded
man-pens and steerage-hells of the
slave-trader, often sufficed to develop
the disease in the most virulent form,
known as galloping consumption; and
the brutal planters of the Spanish An
titles made rule of never buying an
imported negro before they had '.tested
his wind,' T. e., trotted him uphill and
watched his respirations. If he proved
to be ga roarer,'' as turfmen term it,
they knew that the dungeon had done
its work, and discounted his value &C
cordingly. eff perfectly sound man
is imprisoned for life.'' says Baron
d'Arblay, the Belgian philanthropist,
his lungs, as rule, will first show
symptoms of disease, and shorten his
misery by a hectic decline, unless he
should commit suicide"
Our home statistics show that the per-
centage of deaths by consumption in
each State bears an exact proportion to
the greater or smaller number of inhab-
itants who follow indoor occupations,
and is highest in the factory districts of
New England and the crowded cities Of
our Central States. In Great Britain
the rate increases with the latitude, and
attains its maximum height in Glasgow,
where, as Sir Charles Brodie remarks,
windows are opened only one day for
every two in Birmingham, and every
three and half in London; but going
farther north the percentage suddenly
sinks from twenty-three to eleven, and
even to six, if we cross the fifty-seventh
parallel, which marks the boundary be-
tween the manufacturing counties OF
Central Scotland and the pastoral re-
gions Of the north.
1t is distressingly probable, then, to
say the least, that consumption, that
most fearful scourge of the human race,
is not mysterious dispensation of
Providence" nor a product of our
outrageous climate" but the direct con-
sequence of an outrageous violation OF
the physical laws Of God. DR.. Feli1 l..

Good Maxims.

NEVER be idle. II your hands can
not be usefully employed, attend to the
cultivation of your mind. Always
speak the truth. Keep good company
or none. Make few promises. Live up
to your engagements. Keep your own
secrets, if you have any. When you
speak to a person, look him in the face.
Good company and good conversation
are the very .sinews of virtue. Good
character is above all things else. New
er listen to loose or idle conversation.
You had better be poisoned in your
blood than in your principles. Your
character cannot be essentially injured
except by your own acts. If anyone
speaks evil of you, let your life be so
virtuous that none will believe him.
Ever live, misfortune excepted, within
your income. When you retire to bed,
think over what you have done during
the day. Never speak lightly of relig-
ion. Make no haste to be rich, if you
would prosper. Small and steady gains
give competency. with tranquility OF
mind. Never play at any game OF
chance. Avoid temptation, through
fear that You may not withstand it.
Earn your money before you spend it.
Owe no man anything. Never borrow
if yon can possibly avoid it. Be just
before you are generous. Keep your
self innocent if you would be happy.
Never think that which you do for re-
ligion is time or money mis-spent
Read some portion of the Bible every
day. Seek first the Kingdom of God
and his righteousness. - Counsels 70,

The Blessed Dead.

HEARD voice from Heaven say.
ing: Write, blessed are the dead
which die in the Lord - No human
testimony here challenges faith. Nc
oracle Of Greece or of Rome demands
our credence We should not dare to
yield our belief to any voice of mans
wisdom declaring that any who die are
blessed. Death has no human aspect
of enjoyment, of beatitude. Philosophy
cannot irradiate its natural gloom.
Imagination cannot gild its terrors
with any charm. The uttermost that
either reason or fancy can accomplish
is to interpret its unknown state into
eternal silence, to the cold embrace OF
which men, maddened by human pas
sion to pitch of uncomfortable misery,
sometimes hasten with suicidal reck-
lessness. AL merely human intima.
tons concerning death, therefore, stop
short OF the presumption Of blessedness
in its experience. To unfold this idea,
to set it before our minds and to make
It distinct and real to our apprehen-
sion, we need q voice from Heaven.
This the Bible alone youchsafes to us.
Its echoes first awoke the silence Of the
isle Of banishment and startled, there,
the holy stiffness Of the Lords day.
But they are sounding even yet. After
eighteen centuries have prolonged and
multiplied them and scattered them
over all lands, we listen to them at this

Of God. How wonderful their mean

FOURTH QUARTER. 1877.
World. Weary.


SOCIETY is full of people who know
that their lives are frivolous and un-
satisfying. It chafes them to feel that
they are victims of the great world
show, whirled along in it, whitherso-
ever it listeth, with no opportunity for
deeper culture, no time or vitality
left for the discipline of the soul, or
coming into fellowship with the great
minds of the race, for communing with
what is noblest and best in human
thought; no time left for walking with
Christ in the lowly and obscure paths
of charity, for letting their spirits lie
still, that they may be put in tune,
purified. claimed and rested in the arms
Of God.
Persons thus ensnared by their earth
ly and selfish cares may well look back
and sigh for the advantages OF other
days. They know that there was much
more of reality and noble truth in their
lives then than now. They were near
err to Nature, and to all that gives
largeness and strength of soul. Well
may they envy the obscure Christian,
unvexed with tritling cares, whose con-
versation is in Heaven, who walks daily
with God, and amid those truths and
thoughts which are the glorious essence
of things.
How often, weary and empty of soul
in this world pageant, men and women
would be glad to flee out of it, as Moses
fled from Pharoah's Court to INDIAN.
Better to keep the sheep of Jethro, if
he might thus come unto Horeb, the
Mount of God, than to bask amid royal
pleasures which are WEAKNESS and pain.
Better to flee into the wilderness and sit
there in solitude, fed by the ravens and
drinking of the Brook Cherith, than be
oppressed with the gayeties which are
but vanity and vexation Of spirit
1t was not to Pharisees and Scribes,
amid the pompous lives they so proud
ly led, but to the shepherds who watched
their fiocks by night, that the angel of
the Lord appeared. To them, and to
wise men in the East, silently commun-
ing with the stars, was it first made
known that Savior had been born.
Not amid the hurry of Laban's
home, but while he lay alone in the far
desert journey, were Gods eternal
counsels revealed to Jacob. There
needs to be more of simplicity in our
modern lives, less of earthly engross-
ment and more of high spiritual aspira-
ton, if we would save ourselves from
becoming the automatic of the hour.

Little Crosses.

y i b
CHRIST comes to us morning by
morning to present to us for the day
then opening divers little crosses
4thwarting of our will, interferences
with our plans, disappointment of our
pleasures. Do we kiss them, and take
them up and follow in his rear, like
Simon the Cyrenean; or do we toss
them scorfully because they are so lit
tie, and wait for great Affections to
prove our patience and our resignation
to his willp All, how might we accom-.
modate to the small matters Of religion
generally those words of the Lord re-
speeding the children: take heed
that We despise not one of these little
Ones Despise not little sins; they
have ruined many soul. Despise not
little duties; they have been to many a
saved man an excellent discipline OF
humanity. Despise not little tempta-
tons; rightly met, they often nerve the
character for some fiery trial. And
despise not little crosses, for when taken
up and lovingly accepted at the
Lords hand, they have made man meet
for great crown, even a crown of
righteousness and life, which the Lord
promises to those that love Him.

Hay for Hens.

The Poultry World advises the use of

Bulk in food is required for health as
well for poultry as man or animals.
Rich and concentrated food is not read
lily digested, and invites disease. 1t is
stated that, in importation, the life of
valuable horse was saved on shipboard
by feeding him cut shavings in the alb
sence of hay. in order to dilate, so to
speak, his grain diet. Some think a
craving for bulky food is one chief cause
of feather-eating in winter or among
fowls confined. Now. just try and Sc
cure good supply of second crop hay,
short, and if possible containing clo-
yer. Cure only enough to preserve,
and your fowls will eat portion of it
all winter when they would turn away
from stale cabbage. What is not eaten
will furnish untold amusement in
scratching over. Remember in winter
if poultry stand on one leg, unem-
ployed, all day, they are disposed
to have the .sblues'' Idle medita-
lions lead always to bad habits; while
a healthy mind, in vigorous body,
suggests business, which with fowls,
means winter eggs and early chick
ems. Secure your rowen this month
before it is too late, if you have not al
ready attended to the matter, and be-
fore severe frosts, if possible, for it is
injured by being frost-bitten. The

more and more mental process, until
at last it becomes hardly distinguishes

any professional man will demonstrate
this; the results of his sport impulse
viewed individually are due to what
would to another man involve hard
labor. Eventually play becomes mere
~ difference in work, and involves the
disuse of one set of tired brain mole

Alice in Wonderland and the Wild
ly-absurd Hunting of the Shark, is a
grave theological Professor in great
English University and both writings
are productions which professional
wits and humorists would shrink from
attempting to rival. So, also, hard
physical work, presenting still wider
dissimilarity to mental labor, becomes
comparatively play. The ex-Prime
Minister of England finds his greatest
enjoyment in hewing down the trees on
his estate. And we know of many an
instance where an amateurs mechanical

Corn Smut.

The time is about at hand when we
will hear of deaths of cattle from eat
ing corn smut. This year the growth
of corn has been luxuriant, and, what
ever smut is, this growth of corn has
stimulated larger growth of smut than
usual. As first precaution, it is ad-
yisable to give cattle something green,
such as rye pasture, turnips, etc., which
are running in stalk fields and eating
largely of dry husks and stalks. This
dry food mixed with smut becomes inn
pacted in the manifold, or causes con-
stipation, and anything which will re-
lax and keep the bowels open will be
beneficial. Cattle should, a part of the
day, Craze in the pasture or meadow.
But when the animal is one afflicted
with the gastric impaction of the stom-
ach, it must have physic. For this pur-
pose salt is useful and active agent.
1t will create intense thirst, and the ami
NAL will drink large quantities of
water. and this will be of the greatest
benefit. But q large quantity of salt.
without it is followed by large draughts
of water, will be sure death. Under
no circumstances must the water be
omitted. 1t is stated by veterinary sur
geons that one and half pounds of
salt is large dose for the largest ami
mails, but that half pound is sufficient
for smaller cattle. But in extreme and
critical cases, where the animal is too
far gone to drink, it is advisable to
drench literally with warm water
whitened with flour. But mixture of
salt and Glauber salts is far preferable,
mixed in three quarts of warm water
and pint Of molasses. But give all
the water they will drink, and even
drench freely with warm water.
We have no faith in the statement
that corn smut is generally q poison.
But as we may err in this, lard is an
antidote to poison, and this will also
aid As . purgative, and will not in the
least hinder Of counterfeit the regular
dose Of physic as above given.
y But II must be reeollocted that not
withstanding salt is an active agent as
an alterant In cases Of constipation, vet
+ it's not mixed copiously with water,
it acts g > poison, intiaming the bow
els. and terminating in fatal results.
In order 10 al1ay any uneaslness
about cattle eating corn smut, If they
are allowed suflicient other food and
water to keep the bowels open, we an

was employed by the Commissioner of
Agriculture TO thoroughly and scien-
dhcally investigate the effects Of corn
