There is no exsggeration in the statement
thst thousands of persons residing from one
years end to another in fever and ague re-
gions on this Continent and elsewhere, breathe
air more or less impregnated with miasn q,
without mourning the disease, simply and only
because they are in the habit of using Hos

has frequently happened, and the fact has
that persons surrounded on all sides by neigh

and burning plague have enjoyed absolute i'm
munity from it, thanks to the protection at

anti-febrile cordial less eficacious in remedy
ing than in preventing chill and fever, bilious
remittents, and disorders of kindred type.
Taken between the paroxysms, it speedily miti-
gates their violence, and eventually prevents
their recurrence. These facts, convincingly
established by evidence, appeal with peculiar
force to travellers and sojourners in malarious

A Mammoth Japanese Eating House.

In Japan, the eating houses are con-
Quoted on an extensive scale. One of
the largest establishments of the kind
in the capital is the Matsuda, which is
kept by woman. No rooms are let for
lodging purposes, and the patrons are
mostly residents OF Toxic, though &C.
casionally a stranger may be seen
staring at the unaccustomed sights
about him, to the no small amusement
of his neighbors. The customer is
given a numbered ticket on entering,
by which his account with the house is
kept. A few rooms are furnished in
semi-foreign style, but most preserve
their Japanese. character, and the food
is almost entirely native. The "bill of
fare" includes some twenty different
dishes, the prices of which are not fixed,
but depend largely upon the state Of
the fish market. While no meat is
served, fowls are cooked in number OF
forms, and all kinds of liquor can be
obtained. Matsuda is opened about
eight o'clock in the morning, and closed
ut nine or half-past nine in the evening,
The busiest hours are at midday and
after sunset, when the fifty attendants
are kept very active by the crowds of
hungry and thirsty patrons. To the
passer-by, the restaurant looks mos
attractive at night, when the rows Of
lanterns under the caves, and the
illumination of the whole building
showing through panes of colored glass
present very gay appearance.

New YOrk's P0tter's Field.

The New York city cemetery or Pot
ter's Field as it is commonly called, was
started on Harris island in 1869, and has
consequently been in use for nine years.
1t covers about four acres of land, less
rather than more, and there are buried
in it between $4,000 and 10000 bodies.
1t is impossible to tell just how many,
because for the first five years they
were buried helter-skelter, without any
record or any system, and their number
can only be estimated. There were so
many buried in these first five years,
however, that the whole ground is full
of them, and it is impossible to dig q
pit in any part OF the lot without turn.
ing out dozens and dozens of decayine
collins. In 1874 the burying in regular
order was begun, and now any BODY
that may afterward be claimed by friends
can be exhumed, as many bodies are
every year.

A Wandering Sheep.
by JOSEPHINE POLLARD.

The farmer stood on his cottage porch,
And watched the cattle return at night;
The focks and herds that were folded in,
And kept secure till the morning light.
All, well they needed the farm-bOys call,
However distant they chose to roam.
And up from the meadows one and all,
Came leisurely into the path toward home.
The farmer watched them not house or land
Or lovely valley. or wooded height,
Or brook that tinkled along its way,
was hall so pretty or proud sight.
Then why the shadow upon his face?
And what excuse can there he for tears,
When his lines are cast in pleasant place,
And wealth and honor have crowned the years.
His heart had treasure worth more than gold,
OF greater value than wealth or fame:
And the farmer said: 's IL the boy but live,
He will greatly honor eur ancient name,"
SO watched and tended with loving care
The boy grew up into mans estate,
And that look of sorrow. the silvcry hair,
Betoken heart left desolate.
And at night when the farm boy goes to call
The cows, or seek for the lambs astray,
The farmer stands on the cottage porch
To watch them coming the homeward way.
No thought he gives to the wealth they pour
In rich abundance. that he may reap;
But with loving impulse he wanders DER
The world, in search of his one Black Sheep.
There is no JOY at the farmers hearth,
There Is no peace, no rest. no pride,
And father and mother together say
"'Itcere a blessed thing flour bog had diedr'
So sadly ne watches the fiOcks return
And every night, ere she goes to sleep,
The mother prays God will not spurn
From the heavenly fold this wandering sheep.

The Young Widow.

She is modest, but not bashful;
Free and easy, but not bold
Like an apple, ripe and mellow,
Not too young and not too old
Half inviting, half repulsive,
Now advancing. now shy
There is mischief in her dimple,
There is danger in her eye.
She has studied human nature
She Is schooled in ell her arts:
She has taken her diploma
As the mistress of all hearts.
She can tell the very moment
When to sigh and when to smile;
Oh a maid is sometimes charming,
But widow all the while.
Are you sad? How very serious
Will her handsome face become
Are you angry? She is wretched,
Lonely. friendless, fearful, dumbi
Are you mirthful? How her laughter
Silver sounding, will ring ont
She can lure and catch and play you,
AS the angler does the trout.
Ye old bachelors of forty,
Who have grown so old and wise,
Young Americans of twenty,
With the love looks in your eyes,
You may practice all the lessons
Taught by Cupid since the fall
But know a little widow
Who could win and fool you all.

Never Forget Anything.

Charge your mind with your duty.
That is largely the true definition OF
faithfulness. Bad memory and mis-
takes are used as apologies a great
deal oftener than necessary. A boy
beginning business life will generally
lose bis place who pleads such an ex-
cuse more than once or twice.
A successful business man says
there were two things which he
learned when he was eighteen, which
were afterward Of great use to him,
namely, "never to lose anything, and
never to forget anything" An old
lawyer sent him with an important
paper, with certain instructions what
10 do with it.
"But." inquired the young man,
Suppose / lose 1t; what shall / do
then?"
The answer was, with the utmost
emphasis. "You must not lose itp
"I don't mean to-" said the young
man, "but suppose should happen
to?"
"But / say you must not happen tol
/ shall make no provision for any
such occurrence. You must not
lose It'll"
This put new train OF thought
into the young mans mind, and he
found that IL he was determined to do
a thing he could do it. He made
such provision against every contin-
gency that he never lost anything.
He found this equally true about for
getting. II a certain matter OF i'm
portance was to be remembered he
pinned it down on his mind, fastened
it there, and made it stay.-Youth's

of this boy, and he found him at the
back Of the maternal mansion, split
ting up pine-knots for kindlings.

SANS BIRTHDAY.

Oh thO htAOtSOAh 1oy Vi lSbob DlOnbL,
Sam could and would have testified,
from information and belief, that he
was ~eight yeahs oil, gwine on nine; :"
but on the morning Of the twentieth,
that interesting infant of color was
informed by his mother that he was
mine yeahs OF. gwine on ten."

keep on habbin buff-day ebry yeah
wunst yeah till you dies. An ebry
time you hab one, son, you'll be one
yeah older"
@Fine way to git gray-head," said
Sam.
At this moment mighty crash re-
sounded from the kitchen, down.
stairs, and Auat Phillis descended the
steps with great precipitation. Then
Sam heard her shouting, angrily:
you, Bosel Oh, you bettah git,
you mean ole no-'count rascal! do
'spise houn'dogl"
Sam went on with his toilet, mus
ing, the while. upon the probability
Of his ever getting to be as old as
Uncle "Afrikin Tommy" who was the
patriarch OF the plantation, and pop
ularly supposed to be @cluss onto"
two hundred years of age; and who
was wont to aver that when he ar
rived In that part OF the country,
when he was boy, the squirrels all
had two tails apiece, and the Missis-
sippi River was such a small stream
that people bridged it, on occasion,
with a fence-rail. Thus meditating
upon the glorious possibilities OF his
future, Sam got ready for breakfast,
and went down. 1t was not until he
had absorbed an enormous quantity
of fried pickled-pork and hot corn
cakes. and finally with reluctance
ceased to eat, that his mother told
him what had caused the noise lit
tie while before,-how old Bose, the
fox-hound, had with felonious intent
come into the kitchen, and surrepti-
ticusly "supped up" the chicken-soup
that had been prepared for Sans
birthday breakfast; and further, how
the sad delinquent had added insult
to injury, by contemptuously smash
ing the bowl that he had emptied.
Sam, however, was too true phil
osopher to cry long over split milk
or soup. He reflected that the break
fast he had just taken would prevent
his eating any soup, even il he had it.
Il isn't injyrubber," said he to him.
sci, with which beautiful and happy
thought his frown was superseded by
a smile, the smile developed into his
normal grin. and he began to abant
an appropriate stanza from one OF his
favorite lyrics:
