TWELVE WAYS OF COMMITTING SUICIDE

TWELVE NAlS OE CO4uml1 1AANU SOAOADc'
A medical contemporary thus enumerates
the Fashionable modes of doing it,
/. Wearing of thin shoes and cotton stock
ings on damp nights and in cool, rainy wealth
er. Wearing insufficient clothing, and espe.
cially upon the limbs and extremities.
2. Leading life of enfeeblng, stupid lazi-
ness, and keeping the mind in an unnatural
state of excitement by reading trashy novels:
Going to theatres, parties and balls in all
sorts of weather in the thinnest possible dress.
Dancing till in complete perspiration, and
then going home without sufficient overgur-
ments through the cool, damp night air.
3. Sleeping on feather beds in seven by.nine
bedrooms, without ventilation ut the top of
the windows and especially with two or more
persons in the same small, unventilated bed
room.
4. Surfeiting on hot and very stimulating
diuners. Eating in q hurry, without half
masticating the food, and eating heartily be-
fore going to bed, when the mind and body
are exhausted by the tolls of the day and the
excitement of the evening.
5. Beginning in childhood on tea and cot:
fee, and going from one step to another,
through chewing and smoking tobacco and
drinking Intoxicating liquors; by personal
abuse, and physical and mental excess Of
other descriptions. .....
6. Marrying in haste and getting an uncon.
genial companion, and living; the remainder
of life in mental dissatisfaction cultivating
jealonsies and domestic broils, and being al
ways in mental ferment.
I. Keeping children quiet by giving pare
goric and cordials, by teaching them to suck
candy, and by supplying them with raisins,
nuts, and rich cake; when they are sick by
giving them mercury tartar emetic, and
arsenic under the mistaken notion that they
are medicines all not irritant poisons.
8. Allowing the love of gain to absorb our
minds, so; as to leave no time to attend to
our health following an unhealthy occupa-
ton because money can be made by it.
9. Tempting the appetite with bitters and
niceties when the stomach says No, and by
forcing food into it when nature does not de-
mand, and even rejects it; gormandiziug be.
tween meals.
10. Contriving to keep in perpetual wor-
ry about something or nothing; giving way
to fits ofanger.
IL. Being irregular in all our habits of
sleeping and eating, going to bed at midnight
and getting up at noon, eating too much, too
many kinds of food, and that which is too
highly seasoned.
H. Neglecting to take proper care of our
selves, aud not applying for early medical
advice when disease first appears; taking eel
ebrated quack medicines to degree of ma

SEPARATE FROM THE WORLD.-''There is
no greater mistake" said DR.. Bushnell,
ethan to suppose that Christians can impress
the world by agreeing with it. No; it is not
conformity that we want it is not being able
to beat the world in it's way; but it is to
stand apart and above it, and to produce the
impression of a holy and separate life-this
only can give us true Christian power"

PHENOMENA OF RA1N.-One of the most
curious things about rain is the inequality of
its distribution. The reader is, of course,
aware that rain may be measured in inches in
almost any vessel set out to catch it. If a
pail. for example, be put out in an open space
on the ground it will catch as much rain as
would otherwise have sunk into the ground
on the space occupied by the pail. If we
visit the pail after every shower, we may, by
means of two foot rule, tell what depth of
rain has fallen. This is the principle of the
rain gauge. In practice better means are of
course adopted, so as to prevent evaporation
and to measure the depth. Nowit is Of great
consequence where we place our rsin.gauge.
1t mi ght be supposed of no Importance wheth-
er it were on the top of the house or in the
garden close by. And yet, strange to say, a
.auge in a garden near Westminster Abbey
caught twenty.three inches of rain in the
course of the year, while one on the roof of a
house caught only eighteen inches, and one on
top of the Abbey only twelve inches. The
fact is, rain forms at a very low elevation,
much lower than is generally supposed or,
if not actually formed at a very low eleva.
lon, it increases the size of the drops which
come from higher levels. Thus, while Mr..
Glasher was descending in balloon, he
passed through dry, and then through a
wet fog. when the drops of rain were exceed
ingy fine, covering his note book like pins
points. These increased in size on approach
ing the earth, but more rapidly when very
near the earth.
