A WHOLE FAMILY IN HRAvnN.-The
following eloquent passage Is from the pen
of Albert Barnes a whole family in Hea-
ven! Who asasa picture OF describe the ev-
erlastipg loys No one absent. Nor
father, nor mother, nor son, nor daughter
away. In the world they were united in
faith, and love, and peace, and joy. In the
morning of the resurrection they assembled
together. Before the throne they bow to-
gether in united alteration. On the banks
of the River Of Life they walk hand IN
hand, and as family they have common
ced q career of glory which shall be ever
lasting. Their hereafter is to be no sepa-
ration in that family. No one is to lie
down on bed Of pain. no one to sink into
the arm of death. Never, in Heaven, is
that family to move along in the slow pro-
oession, clad in the habiliments of woe, to
consign one of its members to the tomb
God grant that in his infinite mercy every
family may be thus united!

Rheumatism is Disease of the Blood.

The blood in this disease, is found to contain an
excess of fibrin: Vegetine acts by converting the
blood from its diseased condition to healthy crcu
lation Vegetne regulates the bowels which is very
important in this complaint One bottle of Vegetne
will give relief: but to effect permanent cure it
ties especially in cases OF long standing. Vegetne
is sold by all druggists Try it, and your verdict

Schoolroom Headaches.

Many people who have public school
teachers among their acquaintance are
firmly OF the opinion that the schoolroom
has headache system all it's own, and
their impression would be strengthened if
they were to interview the boys and girls.
There is nothing strange about the com
plant; the only wonder is that it is not
continuous and that anybody escapes it.
With systems of heating and ventilation
that are almost uniformly defective, and,
worse yet, under the control of janitors
who have no knowledge whatever of these
departments of their bu siness, and who
are as apt as any other. men to neglect or
despise whatever they do not understand.
many of our schoolrooms are boxes almost
Theoretically sealed, into which hot air is
driven and compressed. The heat is fire.
quently intolerable, the expired breath and
other physical emanations of the children
pollute the air to degree extremely dan
gerous to health; so teachers and children,
who, at nine O'Clock entered the room in
fair health and spirits, emerge at noon
with listless step, aching head and derang-
ed vital organs. Should a teachers nature
protest against breathing in poison and
sweltering in it, up goes a window, and
straightway all the children in it's immedi-
ate vicinity are chilled and temporarily re-
lieved from one danger only to submit to
another. The condition of the air of
SchOOlrooms is no secret to boards of edu-
cation it has been the subject of some
statistics, by experts, which forcibly sug-
gest the Black Hole of Calcutta but
what is or has been done to remedy it !?
How many teachers are competent to use
such ventilating facilities as their rooms
possess Their own frequent headaches
and those of the helpless children show
that the number is very small, and the
same effects indicate that but few janitors
need fear to compare their records with
that of the late lamented King Herod.-

Though potatoes are two and half times
more nutrious than the turnip, by chemi-
cal analysis, that difference does not APP
pear in the feeding Of cattle, where the
turnip is much more agreeable to the taste
OF the animal, and to the assimilation of
the organs. But for the purpose of rear
ing young cattle, no better food can be
given to the animals than raw potatoes in
one ample meal daily, along with hay and
straw. For stock pigs in open yards the
raw potato forms an excellent feed, and,
when steamed and mixed with meal, no
better food can be found for the feeding of
pigs.

Little Miss Snowflake came to town e
All dressed up in her brdnd-new gown,
And nobody looked as fresh and fair
AS little Miss Snowflake, declare!
Out of teecy cloud she stepped @x
Where all the rest of her family kept
AS elise together as bees can swarm,
In readiness for a big snowstOrm.
But little Miss Snowflake couldn't wait.
And she wanted to come in greater state,
For she thought that her beauty Would meier be
known ~ ~
If she came in crowd-so she came alone.
All alone from the great blue sky
Where cloudy vessels went scudding by,
With sails all set, on their way to meet
The larger ships of the snowy fleet
She was very tired, but couldn't stop
On tall church spire or Kinney top;
All the way from her bright abode
Down to the dust of . country roatt!f
There she rested all ont OF breath,
And there she speedily met her DEATH
And nobody could exactly tell
The spot where little Miss Snowflake fell

The plan of putting pisce of soap in
the forks of orchard trees. that the wash
therefrom may, through the alkal con-
tanned, cleanse the bark below Of fungus,
and act as check to insect depredations,
is we'll known. A plan which we lately
saw, of hanging pieces of soap within bags;
so the wash might drip along the bark
strikes as as being an improvement. They
are so placed along the larger limbs that
they may remain and are said to be effec-

The Hunterdon Monitor" says 1--WE
feel it our duty to give recipe for the
cure of diptheria. 1t is simply to put some
tar on plate and apply hot Goals to it, not
hot enough, however to create blaze.
Then place funnel upside down over the
tar and let the patient inhale the fumes
arising from the burning tar through the
spout of the funnel. It will give instant
relief and may be repeated as often as
necessary. Tar spread on piece of cloth
and applied to the throat in connection
with the inhaling process is also good,
much better than old fitch or liniments.
1t should not be removed until the throat
is relieved Of soreness
