never yet" said Sir Pandarus, "met with
woman worthy Of him, aud. no one
knows what would be the love lof Napo-
leon for. a pure minded woman; she
would assuredly obtain an influence over
him which would DO more bene6cent."
But Juliette Recamiers virtue was proof
even against the alluremen.s of this
modern Gcngis Khan, and she shrcnk
from all his advances, thereby, of course,
mourning his deadly hatred, even to those
who frcquented her salons. Hear
ing that three of his ministers had been
seen there, he demanded angrily since
when the Council had been held at Nine.
Recamiers, and forbid them thenceforth
to apper there. He said openly that he

Natnral 6eaection.

Investigators of natural science have de-
monstrated beyond controversy, that through.
out the animal kingdom the 'survival of the
dttest" is the only law that vouchsafcs thrift
and perpetuity. Does not the same principle
govern the commercial prosperity of man ?
Gle. Illustrative Of this principle are the fam
lily medicines Of X. V. Pierce, NJ. D., OF Bufla.

have outriyaled all other medicines. Their
sale in the United States alone exceeds one
million dollars per annum, while the smount
exported foots up to several hundred thous-

gigantic proportions and rest upon any other
basis than that Of merit. 1t is safe to saw that

the tub and artistically turned it down

down to the floor. Another Alsatian then
made his entry, bearing in each hand a
large iron bucket FURNISHED on the in
terror like silver, filled with boiling water
ftoatcd round piece of wood to prevent
the water from stopping over on the stairs
The two then descended to tho court
yard and rcplenished the buckets with
hot water from The cask on wheels which
they had brought with them. This was
repeated and then cold water was added
until the temperature of the water is
properly adjusted to the pleasure OF the

He placed the floating thermometer in
the water, and it stood up showing forty
degrees. That is good" said he; ''it

He placed on chair, near to the tub a

there is nothing like an egg to cleanse

Having washed all off left the tub, ap-
piled hot towel to my back and one to

A &aulnea for . Hlxp q, CO.

A firm in New York seems unfamiliar with
the London story Of the man who offered to
sell real g9ineas at trifle, but conld find no
buyers. Geo. P. Rowcll g. Co,-the @News-
paper Advertising Bureau prop0se for one
hundred y dollars, to put ten.line adver.
tisement In some thirty standard weeklies, and
to slide it into thousand other weeklies free.
DO they expect people to take the offer? ANY
one acquainted with the high rates of these
standard weeklies can see that the thing is
ridiculous. Rowell e. Co. must know very
well that acceptances of the offer would be SO
many items to charge to profit and loss. We
retract our insinuati0n about their Ignorance
OF that London story. They probably know
1t too we'll, and are shrewd enough, by taking
advantage Of that human trait at which the
story hits, to make stroke for fame as men
OF startling liberality, and at the same time
run no risk Of pecuniary loss.

Ny Mother.
By BIZARRE.

Back through tho lapse Of lonely years,
Oflght and shade, and bitter tears,
Isecm to hear
Ny mothers voice, soft, sweet and low
My mothers voice, ali! well know
It's cadence dear.
OFT sitting, when the night bird wings
His homeward flight, and softly sings
A Plaintive song,
Then memory waves her magic wand.
And summons from the silent land
Dear ones long gone.
Again stand BY mothers knee.
Again her sainted face see,
As In dream,
Then asks my heart, with voice OF tears,
For her; alas the sad, sad years
Lie dark between.
Q! mother, from that sphere divine,
On wings oflight cleave realms OF time,
Como thou to me
II for only a little space,
That I may look OH thy dear face,
One moment see,
As once saw, thy tender eyes,
That know not tears in Paradise,
Grieycd no more.
watch for thee, O! mother dear;
listen, and seem to hear
Thy songs 1oat DER
That lonely river deep and wide,
Which darkly rolls It's Stygian lido
From shore to shore;
Silent and deep through lonely years,
Swollen with bitter farewell tears
Forever more.
Trusting, I'll wait while life lasts hero,
Till In that grand, immortal sphere,
Where sorrows cease, il.
We meet andion thy loving breast
My weary head shall be at rest
In perfect peace.

HOUSE AND FARM j, j; J: ! i
Aheut lktrawhereasa.

AT this season of the year horticultural
papers are every day asked questions a.
to what varieties Of strawberries to plant,
Many of them venture specific answeres.
But when it is considered that the same
variety varies from first:rate to next to
worthless in different soils and conditions.
it will appear that there is but one ans.
wef, viz: Plant those varieties which
from trial are found to succeed best.
Each must experiment for himself. Such
experiments may be made with so little
trouble or expense that it is the fault of
the culttyator and not Of the strawberry
if everybody docs not raise upon his own
grounds those sorts that will thrive best.
Now for one dollar plants Of all the best
varieties may be purchased. Planted in
good soil this spring and labeled, their
value and adaptabi!ity to a particular
place may be ascertained next spring.
After that, there need no longer he any
doubt or disappointment. Selecting those
which prove in size, flavor, vigor, produc-
tiveness, the most desirable, every family,
with no more trouble than is required to
keep down weeds, and form new beds
as the old ones wear out, may be supplied
with this enjoyable fruit, as far superior
to the great bulk Of market strawberries
as banana or orange plucked ripe
from the plant is superior to those
that, piuckcd green, are left to
ripcn and decay simultaneously,
several weeks afterwards.
The qualities Of new varieties OF. straw
berries are nowadays so pulled up, that
those who purchase new plants entertain
vague expectation that the berries will
prove sweeter, larger-thc vines more
fruitful and hardy than any others here
tofore known. But experience with the
strawberry, as with every other fruit, will
demonstrate that mans power of really
improving it is very limited, and that he
never will be able to combine the best
qualities of all in any one variety.
Most Of us are very ready to be capt.
waited by size, though size and the charac-
teristic qualities which make fruit val
liable are generally inin,ical. We some
times see strawberries nine and ten inches
in circumference. They are curious and
pretty: They are nice to pick. They are
charming table ornaments. One of them
is as large as dozen wild Strawberries.
But, just for eating, which had you
rather have?
