A Hint % Young HusBaads...

-
Love and appreciation are to a
woman what dew and sunshine are
to the flower. They refresh and
brighten her whole natural life.-
They make her strong.hearted and
keen-sighted in everything affecting
the welfare Of her home. They en-!
able her to cheer her husband when
the cares Of life press heavely upon
him, and to be a providence to her
children. Toknowthat her husband
loves her, and is proud Of her; that
even her faults are looked upon with
tenderness; that her face, to one at
least, is the fairest face in the world;
that the heart which to her is the
greatest and noblest, holds her rsatfed
in its utmost recesses above all other
women, gives strength, and Courage,
and sweetness, and vivacity which
all the wealth Of the world could not
bestow. Let woman's life be per-
vadeded with such an influence, and
her heart and mind win blossom and
sweeten and brighten in perpetual
youth. =

A Lady,s startling Adventure.

Mrs. Cannon, wife of Mr.. William
Cannon, ofthe Robinsville neighbor-
hood, was on her way home from
church, on horseback, last Friday
evening, when she felt something
stick her in the fice, and supposing
it to be the limb of a tree threw up
her hand to ward it of. While un-
dressing for bed after her arrival at
home, she was Mortified to find a rat
tle-snake in the sleeve Of her dress.
The reptile rpllod ont on the tidor
and was killed The lady had not
previously felt much inconvenience
from the slight abrasion in her face,
but it now commenced swelling and
became so painful that a physician
was called in to oattend her. Itissup.

some pain, but it was hoped she will

Over-Work.

Perhaps the over-worked man does
not perform an immense amount of
labor, but he works after his strength
has been reduced. This is like
keeping a mill going when the
stream is low or when the water in
the dam is nearly out. In the care
of the muscles avoid cold and rhcu-
matism. They make people stiff
and lame, they take away the natu-
raj elacticity, which always gives SO
much pleasure, and substitutes a
worn-out, tired and exhausted feel
ing, which borders on pain, and is
often more difficult to bear How
very careful the owner of a fine
horse is that it shall not take cold

Taking Hfs Word for ii.

A consumptive-looking man, lame
and feeble, and carrying a pint bot
tie full of something, halted pedes-
trian on Bates street, yesterday and
said:
Il found this bottle on the corner
back there, and | wish you'd tell me
what's in it."
The other took il, removed the
cork and snuffed in full breath. The
next instant he staggered against a
wall, clawing the air and choking
and gasping, and it was full min
ute before he blurted ott:
"Why, you internal idiot that's.

"Well, Pm perfectly willing to
