WHAT ARE YOU MA DE OF.

Suppose your age to be fifteen years
or thereabouts, we can figure you out
to q dot. You have 16O bones and 500
muscles your blood weighs25pounds !;
your heart is inches in length and
inches in diameter; il beats 20 times
per minute, 200 times per hour, 1Co,-
600 times per day, and 36. 10, 300 times
per year. At each of the pnlsations of
the heart, little over ounces of
blood is thrown out of it, and each
day il receives and discharges about Z
tons of that wonderful fluid. Your
lungs will contain q gallon per day.
The entire surface of the air cells, sup
posing them to be spread out, is over
10000 square inches. The weight of
your brain is three pounds. When
you are fully grown it will weigh
about 8 ounces more. Your skin Is
composed of three layers, and varies
from one-fonrth to one-eighth of an
inch in thickness. The area of one
skin is about 1900 square inches
Each square inch contains $500 sweat
ing tubes, or respiratory pores, each
of which may be likened to q little
drain tile, one-fourth of an inch long.
All these tubes on the entire surface
of your body, if put together, would
make length of 2O1, ,l66 feet, or q tile
ditch for draining the body almost
forty miles long.

ARGENT Belgian publication shows
that the actual population of the earth
is about thousand millions, about
equally divided between males and fe-
males. Every year about 5000, 900
die; every day, 81 ,334; every hour,
$3.50; every minute, 60. Therefore
there is a death every second. In ciy-
ilized countries there are more births
than deaths, but, the whole world con-
sidered, the number of the former is
equal to that Of the latter. More peo-
pie are born and die in the night time
than in the day, and, generally speak
ing, low sized men die before those Of
tall stature. Eight thousand aud six

his pretty young wife, on the night of

obliged TO 60 out of town to one of
the Temperance meetings, and might
not return till tho following noon.
The wife resolved after he had left to
have . good time in . different wsy,so
accordingly she procured . simple

naked ball. She had never done
soeh : rash thing before, but her hus-
band had been away very often of late
and she would nope at home no lon-

times, and nobody seemed to know
her. yet she was fully determined TO

are still the most thorough and search
ing cathartic medicine that can be
employed: cleansing the stomach and
bowels, and even the blood. In small
doses of one pill day, they stimulate
the digestive organs and promote vlS-
Orous health.
AYERS PILLS have been known for
more than quarter of q century, and
have obtained worldwide reputation
for their virtues. They correct dis
eased action i'm the several assimha-
tive organs of the body, and are SO
composed that distractions within
their range can rarely withstand or
evade them. Not only do they cure
the every day complaints of every
body, but also formidable and danger
Gus diseases that have baffled the best
OF human skill. While they produce
powerful effects, they are, at the same
time, the safest and best physic for
children. By their aperient action
they grippe much less than the common
purgatives, and never give pain when
the bowels are not infialned. They
reach the vital fountains of the blood,
and strengthen the system by freeing
1t from the elements Of weakness.
Adapted to all ages and conditions
In all climates, containing neither
calomel nor any dcleterious drug,
these Pills may be taken with safety
by anybody. Their sugar-coating pre-
serves them ever fresh and makes
them pleasant to take; while being
purely vegetable, no harm can arise
from their use in any quantity.

Mr.. Warren Cannon, while exca-
vatiDg earth for the Scioto Valley
railroad near Columbus, last week,
found the remains of what was prob.
ably the lower jaw OF a mastodon.
The bono measured two feet in length
and the teeth, as they fit in the Jaw,
are eighteen inches long. The enamel
is well preserved, and shows the wear
by friction very plainly. The remains
were found on the west side of tho
railroad track, nearly opposite the old
slaughter house, about twenty feet
below the surface, lying in dry sand
and fine gravel. Search will be made
for the remainder of the bones.

OONCLUDED HE WOULDN'T STOP.
A tramp, passing through II Hubbards-
ton few days ago, met young man
ON the sidewalk, and interviewed him,
with the following result: sWhat ac-
commodations has this town for trav-
elers? Two good holels,' was the re-
ply. sYes, yes but what accommoda-
tions for poor travellers that cannot pay
for . lodging?' Very poor; the cells
in the lookup are not as comfortable
~ our horsc-stalls.' Il should think q
person would be liable to take cold,
mused the tramp. Take cold,' replied
the young man, why two tramps
froz to death there one day last week.
Il should think it would be for the in
terest of the town to furnish comfort
able accommodations; it must be a
great expense to bury the bodies this
cold weather. 'Ohi no. says the
young man: 'on Ne contrary, it is
very profitable. They send the bodies
to the dlssectipg-r rooms, and receive
$40 apiece for thenl.' The tramp took
q fresh quid of tobacco, and in
quired the distance to the nearest
town.
