Getting Back to White People.

In Mr.. Stauleys forthcoming record Of
his African travels he thus describes his
impressions on drawing near the west
coast and seeing white faces for the first
time in many long months:
We had gradually descended some five
hundred feet along declining spurs when
we saw scattered string Of hammoCks
appearing, and CLEANS of startling white
ness, such as were given by fine linen and
twillS. 4 buzz Of wonder ran along our
column. Proceeding little further We
stopped and in short time was face
to face with four white--ay, truly white
men AS | looked into their faces
bluShed to find that | was wondering ut
their paleness. Poor pagan Africans
Rwoma and Dzinji, and man eating tribes
OF the Livingstone, The whole secret of
their wonder and curiosity flashed upon
me at once. What arrested the twanging
bow and the deadly trigger Of the canni-
baIsT What but the weird pallor Of my
self and Frank In the same manner the
sight Of the pae-faces Of the Embomma
merchants save me the slightest suspicion

ADVICE TO THE GGRLs.-I want to give
the girls bit Of advice. Marry the man
you love, whether he be farmer Or Il
mechanic, rich or poor, but first, when
you begin to 90 in company you can go
with a rich one or poor one, as you like.
If you commence with rich one you can
still keep it up; and so it is with the
other, Perhaps some of you may say l
married for riches; so l did. | never
went with a gentleman but what if took
the notion to marry him could, and so
| never learned to love poor man. |
live on farm and expect to all my life.
| do my own work for myself and hus-
band and hired hand; have been married
two years. l do not think it a woman's
place TO shear sheep, cut wood aud husk
corn. | think if she keeps tidy house,
yard and garden, she will have all she can
do.--RLaacie, in Ohio Farmer.

Dangerous Liberty.

When will parents learn the Importance
of keeping firearms out Of the chidren'S 5
way2 They will play with them if they
can. 1t has been established by innumer
able examples that there never was Il gun
or pistol so crippled, old or rusty, that it
will not 90 off in the hands Of child
and it is also as well established that the
innocent aim of a child is always deadly
Two more cases of this kind alc reported
A boy of twelve years of age was left
alone for few minutes with his one year
old sister. He commenced playing with
the baby with a loaded rifle. The gun
went off, the ball entering his sisters
chin and passing through her head, kill
ing her instantly. The alarmed boy
called for help. He said that a man
came into the house and shot The child
and then ran away. That was lie told
in fright. He attcrward confessed that
he was playing with the gun, pointing it
at his sister, when she, grasping and pull
ing at the ramrod, the gun went off in
his hands And so she died. The other
case was that of fourteen. year-old who
was playing at "burglars' with a seven
ycar-od friend. He had gun which he
did not know was loaded, but which he
had been in the habit Of using to snap
caps. The inside boy took the gun, while
the outside fellow played burglar and
robber at the wide chinks of the door
lie put his face to one Of the chinks, and
this was a good opportunity for the other
to "blow wind" in bis face by swapping
caps. The first cap missed fire, but the
second discharged the gun and killed the
outsider in the game of robbers, in.
stantly.
There is no more to say. If children
will play with firearms they must get
shot sooner or later. 1t is for parents to
prevent such dangerous play.

In answer to the question, "Why are
farmers so liable to rheumatism" the
Science Of HeaLM says: Because they
wear wet clothing, heat and suddenly
chill the body, oyereat after very hard
work, and because they do not keep
the skin in vigorous, healthy condi.
ton. If farmers would avoid suddenly
cooling the body after great eXertion, if
they would be careful not to go with wet
clothing and wet feet, and if they would
not overeat when in an exhausted
condition, and bathe daily, using much
friction, they would have less rheuma-
tism.
