Worry.

The cause, or condition, which
most commonly exposes the re-
serve of mental energy to loss and
injury is worry, The tone and
strength of mind are seriously i'm.
paired by its wearing influence,
and. If il continue long enough,
they will be destroyed. II sets
the organism of thought and fes''
ing vibrating with emotions which
are not consonant with the natu-
raj liberation of energy in work.
The whole machinery is thrown
out of gear, and exercise, which
would otherwise be pleasurable
and innocuous, become painful and
even destructive. 1t is easy to
see how this must be. The long.
est note in music, the most steady
and persistent ray of light-to use
an old fashioned expression--the
tonic muscular contraction, are all
we know produced by rapid sue
cessi0n of minute motives i'm
pulses or acts. like the explosion
and discharge of electricity from
alternately connected and separ-
ated at points in a circuit; in fact,
a series of vibrations. Mental en-
ergy, doubtless, takes the same
form of development. If dis
turbing element is introduced by
the obtrusion of some independ-
ent source of anxiety, or if ont of
business in hand the mind makes
a diseord, confusion ensues, and
for the time being harmonious ac-
tion ceases. Working under these
conditions in obedience to the will
the mental organism sustains in.
jury which must be great and last
ing. The function of the warning
sense is suspended; the reserve is
no longer stock in allegiance, aud
it ceases to give stability to the
mind; the rhythm of the mental
forces is interrupted; a crash is
always impending, and too often
collapse occurs. The point to be
made clear is this: overwOrk is
barely possible, and seldom, if ever
happens while the mind is acting
lu the way prescribed by its con-
stitution and in the normal modes
of mental exercise. The moment.
however, the natural rhythm of
work is broken and discord ensues
the mind is like an engine with the
safety-valve locked, the steam.

Goa! Tar for Posts and Wagon Paint.

About twenty years ago ! com
menced using coal tar on fence
posts, grape stakes, etc. ! erected
a grape arbor with pine studding
four by four inches square, set two
feet in the ground. Before put
ting them in the ground, ] gave
them n coat of coal tar, about two
aud one.half feet of the lower end.
| do not recollect whether the
tar was hot or only warmed In the
sun. The arbor was taken down
after standing eighteen years, and
the posts were nearly all sound;
some of them had began to decay
at the surface of the ground.
Soon after that had u sheet.
iron tank or kettle made, three
feet high, and two feet in diameter
to heat the tar in. II was set on
brick or stone, 80 ~ to put wood
and chips under; with the care to
getit far enough from the buildings
to be safe from fire. Three posts
were set in the ground and board
nailed Oh to lean the posts against
Us they were set in the kettle, to
prevent turning the kettle over.
A wood lattice was put in the bot
tom of the kettle TO prevent the
posts from bruising the sheet iron
kettle with their weight on the
bottom. put IN eight or ten posts
mt n time: heating the tar to boiling
and keeping it hot and filed with
tar to its top when the posts were
in. Let them remain about fifteen
minutes, then take out and put
others in.
began to apply coal tar to my
wagon wheels five years ago. On
warm day in the summer the tar
is sufficiently thin, but in cool
weather | would advise heating it.
Have the wheels clean and dry,
and be careful that every joint or
crack is filed with tar. An old
paint brush or rag closely wrap
ped on the end of a stick will do,
with q small brush or swab, to fin
ish up at each end of the spokes,
the hub and the felly 1t is hard,
durable and imperyious to water.
This is the object of paint. II is
the best paint | ever used. If j
should order a new wagon | would
ordel the wood work-not only
the wheels but all the wood of the
wagon-yes the wagon.box-all
first painted with coal tar. A very
desirable thing it would be to keep
the bottom of the wagon.box from
swelling and shrinking.
Our railroads are using it of late
very generally on bridge timber,

When we were young, said Sir
John Lubbuck, recently, we knew
that the leopard had spots, the
tiger was striped and the lion
tawny; but why this was so it did
not occur to us to ask, and if we
had asked no one would had an
swered. Now we see at a glance
that the stripes of the tiger have
reference to its life among jungle
grasses; the lion is sandy like the
desert, while the markings of the
leopard resemble spots of sun
shine glancing through the leaves.
