TINE.

Sleep obtained two hours before midnight,
when the negative forces are in operation,
tenn, giving brightness to the eye and .
glow to the cheek. The difference in the
appearance of a person who habitually re-
tires at ten o'clock and that of one who sits
up until twelve, is quite remarkable. The
tone of the system, 30 evident IN the com
p~lexion, the clearness and sparkle of the
eye, and the softness Of the lines of the
features, ID, in q person Of health, kept at
:. concert pitch" by taking regular rest two
hours before twelve o'clock and thereby
obtaining the " beauty sleep" of the night.
There is a heaviness of the eye, n sallowness
of the skin, INT m absence Of that glow in
the face which renders it fresh in expression
and round in appearance, that readily dis
tinguishes the persons who keep late hours.

Changes In European Climate.

In the Bay of Komcnok, near Koma,
In Greenland, fossil and very charac-
teristic remains of palm and her trees
have been discovered lately, which tend
to show that in these parts formerly a
rich vegetation must have existed. But
the ice period of geologists arrived, aud,
as a consequence of the decreasing tenn
perature, this fine vegetation was COW
cred with ice and snow. This sinking
in the temperature, which moved in a
southerly direction, as can be proved
by geological data, d. c., the discovery
of fossil plants of certain species, seems
to be going on in our day, also. During
the last few years the ice has Increased
far toward the south; thus between
Greenland and the Arctic sea colossal
masses of ice have accumulated. On
European coasts navigators now fire.
quently find ice in latitudcs where it
never existed before during The sum
mer months, and the cold reigning up
OH the Scandinavian peninsula, this
summer, results from the masses Of ice
which are floating in the regions where
the Gulf stream bends toward our
coasts. This is a repetition of the OBJ
servation made in the cold summer of
1865. The unaccustomed vicinity of
these masses of ice has rendered the
climate of Iceland SO cold that corn no
longer ripens there, and the Icclanders,
in fear of coming famine and icy cli-
mate, begin to found new homo in
North America.

Ancient and Modern Time.

1t is not generally known that little
moro than century ago New Years
was celebrated on the 25th of March
throughout tho British dominions, In
Guiding America.
The following enactmcnts, adopted by
Parliament, entitled can Act regulat.
ing the commencement of the year, and
for correcting the calendar in use,'
were passed III the twenty-fourth yeai
of the reign of George H.:
'PREAMDLE-Whereas, The legal sup.
putation of the year of our Lord, accord.
ing to which the year beginneth OH the
25th day of March, hath been found by
experience to bo attended with divers
Inconvenience" etc.
"Enactmen.s. That throughout his
Majesty's dominions in Europe, Asia
Africa, and America, the said supputa.
ton, according to which the year of oul
Lord beginneth on the 25tl day OF
March, shall be made use of from and
after :he last day of December, 1851
and that the first day of January next
following the said day of December
shall be reckoned, taken, deemed, and
accounted TO be the first day of the yeai
of our Lord, 1852, and so on from time
TO time, the first day of January in every
year which shall happen in time to
come, shall be deemed and reckoned the
first day of tho year," etc.
The Act further corrects the calendar
thus:
"And that the natural day next i'm.
mediately following the second day of
September, shall be called and accounted
to be the fourteenth day of September
emitting for that time only the eleven
intermediate nominal days of the com.
mon calendar"
1t is said that in the state of Rhode
Island to this day all farm and other
leases date from the date of the ancient
New Year, namely, the 25th of March.
The ancient divisions of the day diff
fered widely from tho customs of oui
own time.

me, and, yielding to the persuasions OF friend |

give VEGETINE my most unqualified Endorsement

new life and energy. VEoETINE is the only medi.

Rubbing his eyes, he stared again, and
as he stared his terror grew. Calling
his wife he asked hoarsely;
"AIirandy, what is that?
"What is what, Likcy?"
Snifiles's name was Lycurgus, and
his wife calls him Likely for short and

"Why, that-thal Thing in the cor

A REMEDY FOR THE PLUM CuRcULIo.
This little insect is nocturnal in its hab-
its, it is the great annoyer of the horticul-
turist; they destroy the plum crop most
every year. To stop these little insects,
use the following recipe:-When the dew
is on the tree, let wood or coal ashes be sifted
under the tree and the ashes viii arise in dust
and settle on the young fruit. If this is
done in the morning or at sunset in the
evening, the curculio will not bother the
tree. This is now a very good time to
make this experiment. Ihave tried it for
several years, and it has always proved
successful with me aud my neighbo,s who
have tried it.-FrOm r. B. Tyler's Book
of Fruit.
