Epilepsy or Falling Fits.

The following from an article on Falling
Fits. from the Christian Statesman, may be in
teresting to the reader:
Having very dear friends so troubled with
this malady that death is looked for by them
almost as an angel of mercy, We set about in
vestigatiOns of a famous cure. From a great
number of specific cases examined We select
the following, which are only types of many.
One. son OF a Bishop in the Protestant Epis-
copal Church. who has suffered intellectually
from fits or epilepsy has been cured. Anoth-
er. a prominent Episcopal clergyman in Penn
sylyania had been treated by some of the
most noted medical men i'll this country, and
in France and Germany, without success.
He at last gave up his pulpit in despair. Dr.
T. was called on and that rector has been
returned to his parish where he is now doing
full duty. Still another, business man of
wealth, had become so utterly wrecked in
mind as well as body as 20 have been for a
wear or so an inmate OF an insane asylum.
Dr. Turner has been the means Of returning
him to his family and MS business.
Some of our friends have since been cured
by this physician. and We viii send his address
to any desiring it, For the same write TO

A Michigan correspondent of the
Country Gentleman gives the following
process of peeling peaches by the use of
I've: ''lt is necessary to have the I've as
strong as for soap, and boiling hot, in a
large kettle. Put the peaches in a four
quart tin pail that has been perforated
thickly with half inch holes on side and
bottom; sink the pail into the I've deep
enough to cover the peaches; let them
remain few moments, then lift them
out and sink the pail in tub of cold
water, and stir them with your hand in
the pail while in the water, which will
rub off the skins and rinse off the I've
The peaches should he left in the I've
Just long enough to eat off the outside
skin, and no more. The I've has such
affinity TOR water that it leaves the
peaches ut once, and does not affect the
flavor. Success depends on keeping the
I've hot, and in having plenty of fresh
water to rinse them in. After the I've
has become thick with down il can be
cleansed by filtering it through ashes.
The size of the pail may be large or
small, according to the amount of work
to be done and the depth of I've in the
Kettle. 1t should he largest at the top
to be convenient

FARM TOPICS.
MIXED RATIONs FOR STOCK.


Among the subjects of instruction at
the Bussey School of Agriculture at ia
maica Plains, Mass, we notice "miNed
rations'' mentioned under the general
heading of ''Food of Animals" and it is
asubject well worthy of the consideration
of every owner of stock. No animal,
biped or quadruped, is satisfied with
one variety of food. Milk comes the
nearest to satisfying the animal wants,
as it contains all the elements requisite
for the development of every part of the
animal system. 1t is at the same time
food and drink, and will make blood,
bones, flesh, fat, hide, hair-in short,
will satisfy the demands of the animal
economy every way better than any
other food. But even milk becomes
monotonOus after time, and, though
it may sustain life, still it does not salts
fly the craving for a variety, and without
this variety the animal does not thrive.
We have recently been study
ing the instincts of fawn,
fresh from the Adirondacks, and
find that with his daily ration of
milk he wants leaves of various kinds.
Cabbage leaves satisfied him for time,
but when some browse was thrown into
his pen, he jumped for it as for sweet
morsel. Beech and birch were alike
greedily devoured, but after feeding on
one kind for time he was evidently
pleased with another, though apple-tree
leaves gave him the most permanent
satisfaction. Fresh clover and grass
would be neglected at any time for some
suckers from an apple tree, and if an
apple was occasionally offered him, his
gratitude was expressed with an extra
shake of his tail and twinkle in his eye
that were as expressive as words.
The instinct of the dumb beast evil
IDENTIFY agrees with the reason Of man in
demanding what the Bussey Professors
call % mixed rations." No farmer would
like to be confined TO corned beef and
pork as steady diet 365 days in the
year, though his "pot-luck' might be
accompanied with cabbage and pota-
to and his appetite sharpened with mus
tard and vinegar. Roast beef and plum
pudding would also fail to satisfy the
palate of the veriest epicure, if these
were his only rations day after day.
All men recognize in themselves the
physical law demanding mixed rations,
and when they cater for humanity prac-

THE THREE DEATHS.

Lay the dead Hope amid the flowers to rest,
smooth tenderly the daisied turf above it;
Watch 10y the grave by memoIy's rays ca
ressed,
Recalling how we used to guard and love II
From its sweet dust fresh fancies may awake,
Till "A new dream its gentle semblance take.
Though passionate tears fall fast rs summer
rain,
Where the dead Love lies in eternal sleep;
Though life and Joy may never wear again
The glory buried with it, dark and deep;
Just for that dead things unforgottcn bliss,
A ohastencd charm may soOthe a watch like
this
But when the shrine where we have gar
mered up
Trust. pride, observation-disclosures at feet;
when poison, lurking I'm the loving cup,
Turns into singing gall what was so sweet
What Solace brOods above such bitter deaths
What future comforts us for murdered Faith?
