will fall like thunderbolt in group bound
by inexpressible love, and there is no hand
to stay its ravages. One can keep from sin
far more easily than from suffering of body
or mind. Character is hence the most acces-
sibie OF these large hemispheres, but the
other is to be perpetually sought.
That pleasure should be sought is proven
by single glance at not only mans nature,
but at all animal nature. All Gods crea-
lures begin life with play, thus shadowiDgm
the outset the Creators design; but
OF all these, man only laughs,
and man only carries on his JOY
fulness to the extreme limit of his stay in
this world. The play of the lower animaIs
is merely physical, and hence it leaves them
the moment youths bouyancy Is gone; but
mans play or laughter is mental and hence
will live while his mind retains its faculsies
The human delight In music or in a good
anecdote will live as long as the mind lives.
All those surprises of situation, of answer
OF words, ofincident, which so excite mirth,
will do so as long as the mind retains its
delicate and marvellous powers The dying,
within moment of death, will smile if
some little absurd thing occurs within their
sight, or If some strange story or bon mot
comes suddenly into the chamber of mem
DRY. Many instances are on record where
the solemnity of death could not pre-
vent the mind just about to sink away from
yesterday.
You will thus perceive that man laughs
and plays by an innate law, and that thus
happiness is his birthright. His mind is
made for smiling destiny. The only crea-
ture, indeed, that weeps; he is also the only
one who laughs, and thus his merriment is
as divine as his tears. Happiness, therefore,
reaches out before you all as a continent you
are to sail to and to possess and to transform
into home. You will not find it all you
could wish, but you will find it better land
than any other philosophy can point out-s
land that God made, and where He will be
with His children. Those who have counted
existence here form of waiting for real
life, or those who have called this world q
failure have, only by that course, made the
failure more complete, for the mind is so
fashioned that it needs the perpetual buoy
ancy of real or supposed happiness. A dis
couraged soul is ruined soul so far as this
life is concerned. Human success demands
a climate and soil of romance Man must
always say, "0h! what a world is thisl 1
should love to live in it a thousand years"

The German Way.

When an officer in the German army
makes scandalous remarks about a comrade's
wife-something of that sort was done at a
post on the upper Mississippi not long ago
there is no military trial but merely duel
in the forest. A captain in the Gath Prus-
sian regiment had been paying marked
attention to the young wife OF the lieuten-
ant an adjutant, and had allowed himself to
speak publicly in a cynical manner of
his intimacy with her. Some of the remarks
of the captain having been repeated by his
brother officers TO the husband, the latter
laid the matter before the court of honor of
his regiment, and with the sanction of this
tribunal a duel between the officers was
arranged. The lieutenant being the injured
man and the challenger, demanded that the
duel should be fought with pistols, the first
sho's TO be fired at Is PAGES distance, the
opponents being then at liberty to advance
to within five PAGES of one another, and the
firing to be continued until one or the other
of the opponents should be so severely
wounded as to be unable to fire any longer
The meeting took place in an open space in
a wood. AT the first exchange of shots the
bullet of the lieutenant graZed but did not
seriously lnjure the captain; and at the
fourth round the latter shot his adversary
through the right lung and heart. The de-
ceased officer, who was only % years of age,
was buried with military honors.

Pleasant Rndraanas

There is nothing more indicative of refine
ment and genuine culture in family than
bright, cheerful and tastefully decorated
bed-chambers. Tasteful decorations do not
necessarily mean expense, and it is possible
to make a chamber look very pretty at a very
small outlay. Indeed, in many instances,
no outlay at all will be required beyond
what would be incurred under any circum-
stances. The women of a family, especially,
are apt to pass good portion of their time in
their bed chambers, and in some house
holds the sleeping apartments are used alike
for sewing rooms. sitting rooms and nurser-
les. 1t is worth while to obtain all the in
nocent pleasure we can find in this life, and
there can be no doubt that life is pleasanter
if most of its hours are passed in cheerful
looking apartments.

A ReantifaI Thought.

We prune our trees, we cut back our vines
and our roses. we pinch off the excess of
buds on our floral pets, having in view all
the time the highest development of the
plant; to let il have its own luxunant way
would cften be to cultivate its ruin. And in
the same way we watch our children, check
ing propensity here that may lead to vice,
killing in the bud a trait that may develop
bitter fruit by and by, cutting off branches
that mar the symmetry of the whole; and
watching continually to keep the thing
straight till IL is firmly rooted in the soil
and can bear the east winds without bend

the head is troubled with pain, accom-

considerable loss of memory, accom-

to have been done. A slight, dry cough
is sometimes an attendant. The patient
complains of WEAKNESS and debility; 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 forti-

trusts every remedy. Several of the
above symptoms attend the disease, but
cases have occurred where few of them
existed, yet examination of the body,
after death, has shown the LIVER to
have been extensively deranged.
