Last "Wednesday severe storm
whitened the waters in this vicinity
and made things lively for such
sailors as were outside. In the
bay the waves were as large as any
ever witnessed. At Potter's dock,
a vessel pounded on the bottom
where the water is sixteen feet in
depth. In the woods large num-
Der of trees were blown down.
The falling of the dead trees in the
vicinity of Nine Mile Point, made
n constant crash.

The Alpena Guards have received
their new rifles, the Sharp, govern
ment model, which are to take the
place of those they have used
since their organization. The new
rifle is stout, serviceable arm, no.
easily damaged, well protected
from rain, and a little lighter than
the old one. 1t is breech-loaded,
single shot, loads somewhat similar
to the repeater guns--a lever
forcing in the cartridge and throw
ing out the shell. The rifle Is
bronzed, and no bayonet is fur
nished. as that weapon is now dis
pensed with in the u. S. service.

Advantages of Crying.

AFrench physician is out in a long disser:
AAtion on the advantages of groaning and
crying in general, and especially during
surgical operations. He contends that groan-
Ing and crying are two grand operations by
which nature allays anguish; that those
patients who give way to their natural feel
lngs more speedily recover from accidents
and operations than those who suppose 1t
unworthy q man to betray such symptoms
Of cowardice as either to groan or Try.
He tells Of a ma who reduced his pulse
from one hundred and twenty.six to sixty
In the course of a few hours by giving full
vent to his emotions. II people are at ali
unhappy about anything, lot them go into
| their rooms and comfort themselves with a
loud boo-hoo, and they will feel a hundred
Der cent. better afterward.
In accordance with the above, the crying
Of children should not be too greatly dis.
couraged. If it is systematically repressed
che results may be st. Vitus' dance, epilep'
bic fits, or some other disease Of the nervous
system. What is natural is nearly always
useful, and nothing car be more natural
Than the crying of children when anything
occurs to give them either physical or men
tai main.

Be Sensible.

Do not be above your business. He who
turns up his nose at work quarrels with
bread and butter. He is a poor smith who
is afraid of his own sparks there's some
discomfort in all trades except chimney
sweeping. If sailors give up going to sea
because of the wet if bakers left off bak-
ing bread because it is hard work if plough
men would not plough because of cold, and
tailors would not make our clothes for fear
Of pricking their fingers, what a pass we
would come to. Nonsense, my fine fellow,
there's no shame about any honest calling I;
dom be afraid of soiling your hands, there's
plenty of soap to he had.
All trade are good to good traders. Luz
offer matches pay well if you sell enough of
them. You cannot get honey il you are
frightened at bees, nor plant corn if you
are afraid of getting mud on your boots.
When bars of iron melt under the south
wind; when you can dig the fields with
toothpicks blow ships along with fans /;
manure the crops with lavender water, and
grow plum cases in flower pots, there Will
be a fine time for handles but until the
millennium comes we shall all lave n deal
to put up with.

To retain or recover health, persons
should be relieved from anxiety concerning
disease. The mind has power over the body
for a person to think he has n disease
will often produce that disease. This we see
effected when the mind is intensely concen-
trated upon the disease of another. We nave
seen a person sea-sick in anticipation Of a
voyage, before reaching the vessel. We have
known people to die of cancer in the stom-
ach, or any other mortal disease. A blind
folded man slightly pricked in the arm, has
tainted and died from believing he was
bleeding to death. Therefore, persons, to
remain well, should be cheerful and happy;
and sick persons should nave their minds
diverted as much as possible. 1t is by their
faith hat they die. As a man thinketh, so
is he. If he wills not to die. he can often
Ave in spite Of disease; and, II he has little
,r no attachment to life, he will alp away
Is easily as q child will fall asleep. Men
i've by their minds as well as by their
bodies. Their bodies have no life Of them
.elves they are only receptaoles of life
for their minds, and the will has
much to do in continuing the physical occu-
pancy or giving it up.

Plain Talk to Girls.

Your every day toilet is a part Of your
character. A girl who looks like a - furry
or a sloven in the morning, is not to be
trusted, however finely she may look in the
evening. No matter how humble your
room may be, there are eight things it should
contain, viz. a mirror, washstand, soap,
towel. comb, hair, nail and tooth brushes.
Those are Just as essential as your breakfast,
before which you should make good and
free use of them. Parents who fail to pro-
vide their children with such appliances,
not only make a great mistake, but commit
a sin OF omission. Look tidy in the morn
ing, and after the dinner work is over, i'm
prove your toilet.
Make it a rule of your daily life to dress
up" in the afternoon. Your dress may, or
need not be. anything better than calico,
hut with a ribbon, or flower, or some bit of
ornament, you can have an air of self re-
spect and satisfaction, that invariably comes
with being well dressed.
The Cheyenne daily leader. [volume] (Cheyenne, Wyo.) 1870-1884, 1878-03-24
A Salutary Remark.

When l was q young man, there lived in
our neighborhood n farmer who was usually
reported to be a very liberal man, and I'M
nm upright in his dealings. When
he had any Of the produce of his farm to
dispose of, he made it an invariable rule to
rive good measure-rather more than would
be required of him. One of his friends OBJ
serving him frequently doing SO, questioned
him as to why he did it; he told him he
gave too much, and said it would be to his
disadvantage. Now, dear reader, marx the
answer of this excellent man:
God has permitted me but one journey
through the world, and when l am gone l
cannot return to rcctify mistakes
Think of this. There is but one journey
through life.
