CLEANLINESS.

That cleanliness is essential to health
is fact that cannot be questioned nor
is it to be wondered at when we remem-
ber that the skin of an ordinary sized
man has been calculated to contain
about twenty-eight miles of perspiratory
tubes continually exuding more or less
moisture, and relieving the body of
large amount of waste matter. The
mischief which must follow the obstruc.
tion of this immense drain by dirt and
other causes must be obvious. The skin
is also a great breathing surface, which
is proved by the fact that if an animal
is coated with an impermeable varnish
it is sufocated in short time just as
effectually as if it had been strangled
with cord. Lastly, the skin is great
absorbent of various matters coming in
contact with it, and in this way lead,
arsenic and other poisons may enter the
body. Cleanliness is therefore absolute
ly necessary in (D promoting healthy
perspiration, and through this uniform
temperature of the body; (2) in largely
assisting the lungs in the performance
of respiration; (3) in preventing the
absorption of poisonous matter. To clean
the skin thoroughly from the scurf and
oily matter, soft water will be found
more effectual than hard, its solvent
power for saline matter being greater.
and when soap is added the oily matter
is at once sapenfed and the cleansing is
complete. Soap and water should be
used at least twice in the twenty-four
hours on the exposed parts. the face and
hands, and the whole body should be
sponged daily with cold or lukewarm
water and soap. Warm water or the
Turkish bath Gn suitable cases) should
be used about once week, and will be
found conducive to health. Cleanliness
in the matter of clothing is also very
important, as through this channel germs
of disease are carried about which not
only infect the person carrying them, but
likewise those with whom they come in
contact. Toronto Globe.

day the delight and envy of all lovers
of rare and costly books.
1t was not long before the results of
this revival of learning were plainly to
be seen. New ways of thinking had
come into fashion; a more correct and
refined taste had begun to prevail, and
thus was effected a complete revolution
in the arts of painting, sculpture and
architecture.
And so, this movement, the Renais-
sance, went on. New ideas of religion,
new ideas of politics, and of government
came into being, and prepared the way
for what is called the Modern Epoch.

STRANGE BIBLE FAcTs.-The learned
Prince of Grenada, heir to the Spanish
throne, imprisoned by order of the Crown,
for fear he should aspire to the throne,
was kept in solitary confinement in the
old prison at the Place of Skulls, Madrid.
After thirty three years in this living
tomb, death came to his release, and the
following remarkable researches taken
from the Bible, and marked with an old
nail on the rough walls of his cell, told
how the brain sough employment through
the weary years
In the Bible the word Lord is found
1858 times; the word Jehovah $500
times, and the word Reverend but once,
and that in the 9th verse of the 1l1th
Psalm. The 0th verse of the 1l7th
Psalm is the middle verse of the Bible.
The 9th verse of the 6th chapter of
Esther is the longest verse; 95th verse,
18th chapter of st. John is the shortest.
In the lO7th Psalm Psalm, four verses
are alike, the 9Th, 18th, 2lst, and 9lst.
Each verse of the l36th Psalm ends
alike. No name or words with more
than six syllables are found in the Bible.
The 37th chapter of Isiah and 18th
chapter of I'd Kings are alike. The
word Girl occurs but once in the Bible,
and that in the Sd verse Of the Sd chap
ter of Joel. There are found in both
books of the Bible, 3,586,493 letters,
773,6O3 words, 31,373 verses, 1889
chapters, and &C books. The 26th chap
ter of the Acts of the Apostles is the
finest chapter to read. The most beau
tiful chapter in the Bible is the 23d
Psalm. The four most inspiring prom
ises are John 18th chapter and I'd verse,
John 9th chapter and 37th verse, st.
Matthew 9th chapter and 28th verse,
and 37th Psalm, 4th verse. The 1st
verse of Goth chapter of Isaiah is the
one for the new convert All who fat
ter themselves with vain boastings of
their perfectness should learn the 9th
chapter of Matthew. All humanity
should learn the 9th chapter of st. Luke,
from the goth verse to its ending

AFTER DARK.

When twilight gathers in her sheaves,
And wheeling swallows skim the fiume,
The ploughman, turning homeward leaves
His plough mid-furrow in the broom,
And through the melancholy eyes
The orange drops its milk.white bloom.
The old delights that go and come
Through sorrow, in the falling dew.
Like waves that wore wreath Of foam
The darker that the waters grew,
Flow round my solitary home
At evening, when the stars are few.
So, sad and sweet as bridal tears
For broken homes, to see withdraw
The child we love, have gone the years
We climbed the frosty hills, and saw
Descend on all the frozen meres
The sunlight breaking through the thaw.
Like one who in the driving snow,
When all the untrodden paths are dim,
Hears far-off voices, faint and low,
Across the woodland calling him,
1 hear the loved of long ago
Singing among the seraphim-
And as the soft, assembling light
Falls, shadowing into dusky red,
think how beautiful the night
With gathering stars is overspread.
Like seeds of many an old delight
Through sheaves of sorrow harvested.

HUSBAND AND WIFE.

"0h, kiss me once before l go,
To make amends for SORROW;
Oh, kiss me once before we part
Who shall not meet tomorrow.
And was wrong to urge your will,
And wrong to mar your life;
But kiss me once before we part,
Because you are my wife,"
She turned her head, and tossed her head,
And puckered up her brow;
II never kissed you yet" said she,
"And I'll not kiss you now.
Tho I'm your wife by might and right
And forsworn marriage vow,
never loved you yet" said she,
''And don't love you now."
So he went sailing on the sea,
And she sat crossed and dumb
While he went sailing on the sea
Where the storm winds come.
He'd been away month and day,
Counting from morn to morn;
And many buds had turned to leaves,
And many lambs were born,
And many buds had turned to flowers,
For spring was in glow,
When she was laid upon her bed
As white and cold as snow.
"0h, let me kiss my baby once,
One kiss before die;
And bring it sometimes to my grave
To teach it where lie.
And tell my husband when he comes
Safe home from DER the sea,
To love the baby that leave
If ever he loved me;
And tell him, not for might, or right,
Or forsworn marriage vow,
But for the helpless baby's sake,
Iwould have kissed him now."

THE LAW OF REAL ESTATE.

The absolute title of all lands, streams
and lakes rests in the government. 1t
never wholly released its claims. The
law of eminent domain give the sovereign
power the right at any time, when nec-
essary, to take back to itself any prop
erty before patented. Subject to that
right, however, the person who receives
a certain quantity of land has the abso-
lutte title against the whole world.
He may lose it:
1st. By being convicted of treason.
I'd. By non-payment of taxes.
Sd. By sale on execution.
4th. By allowing another person to
remain in undisputed possession, claim
ing to own it twenty years.
He may pass it to another:
lst. By sale and deed.
I'd. By gift and deed.
Sd. By will.
A will can pass no title until after the
testator's death.
If the owner of the land dies leaving
no will, the statute distributes his estate
among his nearest relatives and next of
kin. If the person has no relations or
kin, his property, real and personal,
goes to the State.
No contract or agreement for the sale
of lands, or any interest whatever in real
estate, is binding unless in writing,
signed by the person to be bound; ex-
cepting lease, not to exceed one year,
may be made by verbal contract, and
will be binding.
When an agreement between two per-
sons is reduced to writing and signed by
the parties, they will be bound by the
terms of the writing unless the other
party can show fraud or mistake in the
transaction A party will be held to
his agreement unless he can show beyond
a doubt that there was a mistake in
drawing up the writing or the other par
ty was guilty of fraud. For this reason
parties should use extra care to have
their whole and entire agreement reduc-
ed to writing, if any part is written.
Get somebody to draw your papers who
can do it right and legally and it will
be the cheapest in the end.

The. King OF Beasts.

fVir@in1a tNeVaoa) CHro!lc'c'J
William Garhart denies Congressman
Daggett's assertion that the mule IS the
kin" OF beasts. Garbart accords the palm
of superiority TO the hog. A hog always
knows what he is about. Garhart claims
that no man on earth ever got the better OF
q hog in fair struggle. He has tried to
drive over hogs many times, but was sue
ccssful only once. They sometimes lie in the
hollow OF the road fast asleep. Dir. Garhart
has often borne down on them at $40
mace with tive-ton stage and slX-In-band
on down grade. Just, however, as ne
confidently expected to see the air filled with
wagon-greaSe and sparc-ribs, they would
lurch clear OF the wheels, or glide under the
stage, and come out all safe and sound, With
srunt Of quiet satisfaction and look that
was more eXasperating than to be robbed by
road-agents. Mr.. Garhart never got away
with hog but once. The animal lodged
train OF cars coming out OF tunnel, and
he whipped up his horses and caught the
hog SQUARE in the neck with one OF the fore
wheels. and killed it. The stage. however
unset and smashed everything IN sight
Two men were killed outright and severa
women manned for life. The hog calculated
all right for the locomotive, but was out o.
his reckoning on the stage. But the com
pany thought the victory over the hog wa
dearly purchased. Garhart also asserts tina
hog can whip a mule, Daggett's assertion
| to the contrary notwithstanding.
