Precepts of COnfucius.

Be severe to yourself, and indulgeut
to others; you thus avoid all resent.
ment.
Tie wise man makes equity and
justice the basis of all his conduct
the right forms the rule of his beha-
viOr; Difference and mOdesty mark
his exterior; sincerity and fidelity
serve him for accomplishment.
Love virtue, and the people will be
virtuous the virtue of a great man is
like the wind; the virtue of the hum
BILE is like the grass; when the wind
passes over it the grass inclines its
head.
Children should practice filial piety
at home, and fraternal deferen ce
abroad; they should be attentive in
their actions, sincere and true in tn ell
words. loving all with the whole
force of their affection.
Return equity and justice for evil
done to you, and pay goodness by
goodness.
Without the virtue OF humanity,
one can neither be honest in poverty
nor contented in abundance.
= Real virtue consists in integrity oi
heart and loving your neighbor as
yourself.
What [ desire that others should
not do to me, l eqally desire not to do
to them.
Think not of faults com mitted in
the past, when one has reformed hi:
conduct.

Says the Indianapolis Sentinel. A
pork packer of this city is entitled to
credit for the discovery of new swim
die. While bartering for carload of
hogs yesterday he noticed that the
backs of his favorite staple were COW
cred with mud, and an examination
of the floor of the car revealed to him
the fact that the alluvial accumulation
was not a matter of accident, but of
design. several hundred pounds of
clay of wonderful adhesive properties
having been Systematically thrown
upon the floor and dashed with water,
to which the. hogs with their we'll
known propensities for wallowing
had gone with a relish. He did not
buy, but later in the day be hsard
that the drover had sold to another
packer, and was Dragging loudly that
he not only saved shrinkage, hut re-
ceived S37 for the mud that incrusteC
the backs of his porkers.

Indian and Yankee.

The water at Mackinaw is very
clear and cold-so cold as to be almost
uncomfortable. A gentleman some
years ago amused himself by throw
ing a small gold coin in twenty feet
of water, and give it to any Indian
who would bring it up. Down they
plunged. but after decending ten or
twelve feet, they came up SO chilled
that after several attempts they gave
it up. A Yankee standing by, observ-
ed that if he would give it to him for
getting it, he'd swing it up quicker
than lightning, to which he consent
ed when Jonathan, instead of plum
ging in. as was expected. quietly took
up a setting pole, and dipped the end
in tar barrel. reached down to the
coin, brought it up, and slipping it in
to his pocket, walked off, to the maze

Why Americans Wear Arms.

1t is related that Col. Ingersoll once
gave an ingenious explanation. at a
Paris dinner party. of the America n
practice of carrying weapons. a
French guest turning to Ingersoll ex-
claimed: "Will the Colonel explain
this matter? Why Messieurs, I can
travel all over France armed only
with bOdkin." The Colonel rose to
his feet and replied: The explana-
ton is this: 4 Frenchman's rights
are so few in number. and so insignif-
icant in character, that they can he
enforced with a b0dkin, or. for that
matter, with a toothpick. But in
America a citizens rights are so nu-
merous and important that he needs a
whole arsenal to defend them -
Hence the practice of carrying weap-
ons i'm America.

REMEDY FOR FROST BITE.-The fol-
lowing treatment is highly recon-
mended for frost-bite: Dissolve 460
grains Of taunin in about 81 ounces of
water, add 46 grains Ofiodine dissolv-
ed in two fluid ounces of alcohol, and
dilute the hole to about three pints.-
Use daily (best just before going TO
bed) by placing the liquid in a porce-
lain or earthen vessel, over gentle
fire, and holding the part affected IN
it as long as the heat can be endured =,
and then dry it over the fire. One ap-
plicatian is said to produce decided al
deviation. and four or five a complete
cure. The amount of iodine should
not be exceeded. especially if there
are open sores.

HAIR WASHES. These delusive
preparations are eagerly sought by
many. but they are not only delusive,
but actually dangerous. as the major
part of them are made from lead
which is deleteriOus TO the delicate
scalp. 1t works serious mischief in
many cases. Here is an instance in
point:
A gentleman named Brownfield
had used patent hair wash moderate
ly for two or three years, and during
all this time there was general mdLdise
and loss of muscular power. About
three months since, two days after an
eftectual application of the wash, a
slight epileptie fit occurred. and six
weeks afterward a similar application
was followed by palsy of the extensor
muscles of the left hand. In this case
probably another dose might have
produced paralysis; but by this time
suspicion was aroused, and by steady
application of antidotes the symptoms
are now disappearing. The profits of
selling these washes are said to be so
tempting that. since the secret of the
darkening agent has oozed out, num-
erous hair dresseFs, both in town and
country, are manufacturing g them and
pressing them upon their customers.

What a blessing to a household is q
merry, cheerful woman-one whose
spirits are not affected by wet days. or
little disappointments, or whose milk
of human Kindness does not sour in
the sunshine of prosperity Such a
woman in the darkest hours brighten
the house like a little piece Of sun
shiny weather. The magnetism of
her smiles and electrical brightness OF
her looks and movements infect every
one. The children go 20 school with
sense of something great to be
achieved her husband goes into tn he
world in conqderor's spirit. No mat
ter how people annoy aud worry him
all day, far off her presencs shines,
and he whispers to himself, "At home
I shall find rest" So day by day she
literally renews his strength and en-
ergy. and if you know a man with
beaming face. q kind heart, and
prosperous business, in nine cases out
of ten you will find he has a wife of
this kind.

A "COrset Liver"

Some medical students in one OF the
colleges of this city. dissectiug fe-
male subject few days ago, found
what is called in doctors parIance a
"corset liver" When tight lacing
has been practiced through several
years, permanent dent or hollow Is
produced in the liver, which may be
seen very plainly after the woman is
dead and her liver dissected out.
This kind of liver occurs so frequent
ly in women that physicians have
given it the name of "corset liver"
In the subject mentioned the hollow
10 the liver was large enough for the
wrist Of a grown man to be laid in it.
Young ladies who don't want their
livers put into the newspapers and
made an awful example of after they
are dead would better take warning

tinguised. and waits for another time.
No roaring cook stoves and red hot

waste. The eggs laid to-day costs a
little more than one laid last week.
Values are nicely estimated, and the
smallest surplus is carefully saved. A
thousand little economies are practis-
ed, and it is respectable to practice
them. Cooking is an economical as
we'll as sanitary and gustatory science.
A French cook will make franc GO
as far as an American housewife will
make three. We should probably be
greatly astonished could the compu-
tation be made. how much of the A.
nancial. reeuperative powers of
France is owing to her soups and
cheap foods-better living after all,
than the heavy bread and failures

4 Bear Story.

Several children were feeding a pei
bear with corn at Austin, Texas. An
ear was dropped out of the reach OF
the bear, and a little girl handed it to
him. The bear sportively pulled her
to him, when a house dog. believing
the child to be in danger, sprang up
on the bear. Bruin then carried the
child TO the further part of the hogs
head in which be slept. aud returned
to fight the dog, under the impression
that the dog would hurt the child. A
party Of darkies tried to protect the
child from her other protectors, but
the little one did not escape until her
mother had killed both bear and dog
with q musket.

more than thirty-five years it has
