An Afflicted Ones Experience.

The greatest trial in this afiiction is the
being deprived of the privilege of going to
the house of God. My spirit longs to unite
with the people of God in his house, or else
go to heaven. But how much better it is
to submit to the wise and kind decisions of
him, who does not willingly affiict but for
our profit, that we may be made plrtakers
of his holiness.
How valuable sometimes is a season of
aiiiiction. When the spirit is volatile, the
heart proud, contented, and worldly, the
correcting rod is necessary to humble,
arouse, and elevate; and when these are
its effects, it should be regarded as a real
blessing. 1t is lamentable that we should
frequently and for so long a time need the
rod, but it is not a matter of surprise when
We consider the manifold evils of the hu.
man heart, and the necessity of high per.
SQUAT holiness. So

The Medicine of Sunshine.

Tho world wants more sunshine in its
disposition, in its business, in its charities,
In its theology. For ten thousand of the
aches and pains, and irritations of men and
women we recommend sunshine. 1t
soothes better than morphine. 1t stimu-
iates better than champagne. 1t is the best
plaster for a wound. The good Samaritan
poured out into the fallen travellers cash
more OF this than of oil. Florence Night
lngale used it on the Crimean battlefelds.
Take it into all the alleys. on board all the
ships, by all the sick beds. Not a phialful,
not a cupful, but n soulful. 1t is good
for spleen, for liver complaint, for neural
gia, for rheumatism, for failing fortunes,
for melancholy.-FdiM and Works.

RELIGIOUS.

"
ONE great error of our moral teaching
lies in the fact that there is too much don'i
to il, and not enough do. We bid our
children not to do this and that; We do not
always tell them what they may do. We
tell the inebriate not to go here, and there :
but we do not, as n general thing, give him
. place where he can go. We bid the
young avoid the light, warm, CHEEKY sa-
loon; but we give only the curb stone, or

harvest of words and deeds. You may not

you have done you part in preparing them

Farms.

MANY a farmer has been ruined
by a large farm, who might have ac.
quirel competency with one half
the size. Most farmers arc anxious
for large possessions, and many are
thus betrayed into the error Of taxi
ing Il greater quantity of ground
than they have the means of handles
Ing to advantage, in the delusive
hope of acquiring those means by
future savings; others from the van
ity of holding morc land than their
ncighbors. Then arises deficiency
of stock, Imperfect tillage and scanty
crops, with all the consequences OF
rent, taxes, wages unpaid, and debts
piling up, and ruin finally caps the
whole. While the farmer who pru-
IDENTIFY commences with only such a
number of acres as he has the power
of cultivating with proper effect, is
certain of obtaining the full return
from the soil, and not being burdened
with more land than he can profita'
bly, employ. his engagements are
within his means, and while enjoy"
ing present ease Of mind, he lays
the surest foundation for future pros
peritY.

deposited in the Mediterranean,
where it is forming Il new delta

Small Fruits in Gardens.

But few people seem to know the
value of small fruits TO q family.
when grown in their own gardens.
You commence with strawberries !;
they continue about month. You
pick, perhaps, from six to twelve
quarts day. You have them on
your table as q desert, if you please.
at noon, and your tea table is loaded
with them at e7enins, and you want
but little else than your bread and
butter. Your family consume in
one way and another about eight
quarts a day, and while they last no
medicines for bodily ailment are re-
quirel, as a quart of Strawberries
daily will generally dispel all ordin-
ary diseases that are not settled per.
manently in thesystcm. After straw
berries, raspbcrries continue about
three weeks; then we have black"
berries, when the climate is not too
cold for cultivated varieties and
taking the season through, any fam
ily with half acre of land in a
garden can grow small fruits that
make. country life delightful. and at
the same time many dollars can be
saved in the supply of the table.

he has cured many cases Of hydro

Of elccampanc. The first dose for a
man is one and a half ounces of Gle"
campanc root bruised, put in apint
of new milk and reduced to onc"half
BY boiling, to be taken at one dose
in the morning, fasting until the
afternoon. The second dose should
be two ounces of elecampanc treated
in similar manner. and third dose
the same as the second, TO be taken
every other day. This remedy, Mr..
Shoemaker says, has been used in
and about Philadelphia for over
forty years with great success.

Second Crop OF Irish Potatoes.

To make second crop of Irish
potatoes, if only one eye shows signs
of terminating, L plant the whole
potato; if two eyes, | cut it. 1t
seems to me unnecessary to expose
potatoes cf this kind to the air.
When these cannot be procured, Sc
lect such as appear to be fully ma
tured and ripest, expose them to the
air in the shade, from two to four
weeks. until they become somewhat
shriveled, and plant whole. Even
this plan will net secure full stand,
but enough will come to far more
than repay you for the labor be-
slowed. When potatoes are planted
late in the season it is essential to
have the earliest varieties that can
be procured.

Work Horses.

No horse should be worked or driven
on the road longer than five hours
without food. The stomach of the
morse is small. compared with the
COW or OK, and he digests his food in
three or four hours. Consequently
his stomach is empty at the cxpira..
ton of that time, after feeding, and
a rapid exhaustion of strength fol-
iows an empty stomach. Therefore
feed after working or driving five
hours, and let the horse rest ono
hour after feeding.
