Prescription for Fits.

For Fit of PassIon.-Walk out
in the opec air. You may speak
your mind to the winds without
hurting any one, or proclaiming
yourself to be a simpleton. "Bt
not hasty in thy spirit to be angry,
for anger resteth In the bosom OF
FOOLS
For Fit of Idleness.-Count the
tickings of a clock. Do this for
one hour, and you will be glad to
pull off your coat the next and
work like a man. "Slothfullness
casteth into a deep sleep, snd an
idle soul shall suffer hunger"
For Fit of Extravaganza aud
Folly.-GO to the workhouse, or
speak with the ragged and wretch
ed inmates of Jail, and you will be
convinced
"Who makes his bed of briar and thorn
Must be content to lie forlorn."
"Wherefore do ye spend money
for that which is not bread? And
your labor for that which satisfeth
nOtY'
For Fit of AmbitIon-Go to
the churchyard and read the grave
stones. They will tell you the end
of man at his best estate. "For
what isayour life? 1t is even va
por, that appeareth for little time
and then vanisheth away" Pride
goeth before destruction, and a
naughty spirit before a fall"
For Fit of Repiniing.-Look
about for the halt and the blind l.,
and visit the bedridden, the sffiict
ed, and the deranged; and they will
make you ashamed of complain ng
of your light Affections. "Where
fore doth a man complaint
For a Fit OF Envy.-Go and see
how many who keep their carriages
are afflicted with rheumatism, gout
and dropsy; how many walk abroad
on crutches or stay at home wrap
ped up in flannel, and how many
are subject to epilepsy and apo
plexy. "a sound heart is the life
OF the flesh. Envy is the rotten
ness of the BONES"

see. what she had on. Poor thing

One of the worst habits a woman
eau get into is ring habit. But it
is not much worse than the modern
walking dress, which ladies persist
in wearing on the street When a
woman approaches crossing she
p,.uses for one fleeting instant,
gives a sudden kick that would fire
the envy of a Mexican mustang
and catches her train on the ay.

The average age Of a woman Is
about twenty two years. She new
er lives to be very old. Some look
as if they were well advanced in
years, but YOU should not judge by
appearances. / you gill take the
trouble TO ask woman how old
she IS you will get at the real facts
OF the matter. And discover. that
she is quite young. She seldom
passes her thirtieth year. About
which time she begins TO tear out

Scientific men are trying @ ex-
plain why women cant throw
stones with the force and precision
of the sterner sex. This is glaring
nonsense. Women may not be able
TO throw stones with precision, but
they can hit the mark every time
with a gridiron, or a stick of stove
wood. Experience has taught me
that.
Women, as general thing are
very hard to manage. know but
one way to keep a woman in
check. And that is % make her

coins, brought to Lewisburg by Mr..
Campbell, bore date OF 77S, and one
found by Mr.. Haynes bore date OF

have been carefully examined and
no sign of erasure or change of date
could be detected. We give this
account as related by eye-witnesses
and gentlemen OF undoubted integ
rity. When and by what means the
money was deposited there, its past
history and many other points con-
nected Herewith are wrapped in
profound mystery. Various are the
conjectures, but no satisfactory ex-
PLANTATION can be given. Perhaps

self-cure for Inebriety.

A person afflicted with this dis
ease can easily supply himself with
the remedies used at nearly all the
inebriate asylums and be his
own physician at his own home,
without the necessary expense and
publicity of visiting the Washing
tonian Home or any other reforma-
tory institution. His laboratory
need contain only small quantity
of cayenne pepper, pot of concen-
trated extract of beef, and a few
grains of bromide of potassium.
When the desire tor alcoholic drink
recurs, make a tea from the cay
eDne pepper, as strong as can be
taken with any degree of comfort,
sweeten it with milk and sugar, and
drink. The tea will supply the
same place that a glass OF liquor
would fill, and will leave no injuri-
Gus effect behind. Repeated daily
as offer as the appetite returns, it
will be but a few days before the
sufferer will have become disguised
with the taste of the pepper, and
with the appearance Of this disgust
disappears the love of liquor. The
fact is proven every day. The ex-
tract OF beef is to be made into beef
tea, according to the directions on
the pot, in quantities as may be
needed for the time being, and fur
nishes a cheap, easily digested and
healthy nutrlment, 1t being made
to "stay on the stomach" when
heavier articles of food would be
rejected. The bromide of POTASH
um is to be used carefully and only
in case of extreme nervousness, the
dose being from fifteen to twenty
grains, dissolved in water. This is
a public exhibit of the method of
treatment adopted at the inebriate
asylums. In addition thereto the
drinking man should surround him
self with influences which tend to
make him forget the degrading as
sociations of the barroom and lift
him upward. He should endeavor,
so far as his business vocations will
permit. to sleep, bathe and eat reg
ularly, and obey the laws Of health.
BY the adoption of this course, en-
ergetically and sincerely, a man
who has the will to reform can do
so. Hundreds and thousands can
attest the truth of these statements.

Who Could Offer More Than This

The following little story is a
touching one, and the hero thereof
is a well known young gentleman oi
this city. He has been somewhat
wild in his habits in the past, but
for four months he has abstained
from drink and spent his evenings
1t home. One evening, three weeks
ago, he went out calling, and some
one gave him glass OF wine. THIS
aroused the sleeping fiend, and be
went off on a grand carouse. Fol-
three days he lost mastery over
himself, and scarcely knew where
he was. On the morning of the
fourth day he was Comparatively
sobered up. He wandered into the
reading room of one of our hotels
where he was well known, and sal
down and stared moodily into the
street. Presently a little girl oi
about ten years came In and looked
timidly around the room. She was
dressed in rags, but she had sweet,
intelligent face that could scarcely
fail to excite sympathy. There
were five persons in the room, and
she went TO each begging. One
gentleman gave her a five cent
piece, and she then went to the gem
tleman spoken of and asked him
for a penny, adding, Il havn't had
ANYTHING to eat for a whole day"
The gentleman was all out of hu
NOR, and he said GROSSLY, "Don't
bother me; go awayi | havn't had
anything to eat for three days"
The child opened her eyes in shy
wonder and stared at him for a mo-
ment, aud then walked slowly to
ward the door. She turned the
Knob, and then, after hcsitating a
few seconds, she turned and walked
quietly up to him who mad spoken
so -naturedly, and gently laying
the five cents she had received on
his knee, said, with a true touch of
girlish pity in her voice, "If you
havn't had anything to eat for three
days, take this and go buy some
bread. Perhaps l can get some
more somewhere" The young fel
low blushed TO the roots of his hair,
and lifting the miniature sister of
charity in his arms, he kissed her
two or three times in delight. Then
he took her to the persons in the
room and TO those in the corridors
and the Office, and told the story
and asked contributions, giving
himself all the money he had with
him. He succeeded in raising over
forty dollars, and sent the kindly
hearted little one on her way re.

1t may not be necessary to call
the attention OF mothers 20 the fact
that the following Invaluable sug
gestion is that of father: A IA
ther who had passed many sleep
less nights. has immortalized him
self by discovering a method of
keeping babies quiet. The process
is described as follows; AS soon
as pet awakes, set 1t up, propped
by ia pillow, # it cannot sit alone
and smear It's fingers with treacle;
then put half dozen feathers into
its hands, and IL will sit and pick
the feathers from one hand to the
other until it drops asleep. As
soon as it wakes again repeat the
operation, and in place Of the fret
and cry of former nights, there viii
be silence and quiet repose."
