A WRONG IDEA,

Many persons having gotten the wrong
idea that hops are strengthening, have taken
to drinking beer and ale very freely. The
consequence is they feel better for short
time, but when the reaction comes they are
much weaker than before Reader, if you
value life, lay aside all malt and alcoholic
beverages and put your trust in that tenn
perance preparation of iron and vegetable
tonics called Browns Iron Bitters. It gives
real health and strength to every part of the

How Rain and Hail are
Formed.

When the PARTICLES of water or ice
which constitute a cloud or fog are
all of the same size, and the air in
which they are sustained is at rest
or is moving in n direction, then
these particles can have no motion
relative to each other. The weight
of the particles will cause them to
| descend through the air with veloci-
ties which depend on their dame
tiers, and, since they are all of the
same size, they will move with the
velocity. Under these circumstan-
ces, therefore, the particles will not
traverse the spaces which separate
them, and there can be no aggrega-
ton SO as to form rain drops or hail
stones. If, however, some of the
PARTICLES of the cloud or fog attain a
larger size than others, those will
descend faster than the other and
will consequently overtake those i'm
mediately beneath them; with these
they may combine SO as to form still
larger particles which will move with
greater velocity, and more quickly
overtake the particles in front of
them, and will increase in rate as
they add to their size. Under such
circumstances, therefore, the cloud
Will be converted into rain or hail,
according as the particles we're ice
or water. The size of the drops from
such a cloud would depend simply on
the quantity of water suspended in
the space swept through by the drop
in its descent, that is to say, on the
density and thickness of the cloud
below the point from which the drop
started. This is the actual way in
which raindrops and haildrops +
formed.

The Seat of Emotion.

ity, or peevishneSs and a contracted
mind. Remark the effect which a
moment of ill-humor or grudging-
ness has uron the lips, and Judge
what may be expected from an ha-
bitual series of such moments. Re-
mark and reverse, and make a SINH
lar judgment. The mouth is the
frank part of the face; it can the
least conceal it's sensations.
We can hide neither ill-temper
with it, nor good; we may affect
what we please, but affectation will
not help us. In a wrong cause it
will only make our observers repeat
the endeavOr to impose upon them.
The mouth is the seat of one class of
emotions, as the eyes are of another;
or rather, it expresses the same emo
tions, but in greater detail and with
more irrepressible tendency to be in
motion. 1t is the region of smiles
and dimples and of trembling ten
derness, of a sharp sorrow, of a full
breathing joy, of candor, of reserve,
of a carking care, of a liberal SYM
patty.

An Incident of the War.
Frank H. Foot, in Phila. Times.

ANNS
In the march up the Valley of the
Shenandoah, the abundance of black
berries offered substantial repasts
that did SO much good. One even
ing a vast field of them attracted
our attention, and the whole division
OF Anderson were stopped perforce,
because there were none left in the
ranks to move on, and went to ELL
up" General Wilcox faoetiously re.
marked to one of his Colonies, to
turn out your cattle to Craze and
when he thought they had a surfeit,
ordered the Colonel to drive on his
cattle" Passing through the town
OF Charlestown, w. Va, the ladies
of this place in their fervor caused
General Posey to dismount and
kissed him for the Mississippi Bri-
gade," and would not let him off
lightly. Sharpsburg was reached
and q rest given us for several hours;
which some of us occupied in reve-
ries of the battle fought there nearly
a year previous. While sitting on
the porch of a cottage with a COM
rade, a door behind us was partly
opened and a lady quietly asked us
if we did not wish for something to
eat. Asserting, we were told to go
through the gate to the real of the
house, 81 as not to attract much at
tention, which we did. The lady
soon appeared with bread, milk and
butter, and a delicious lunch it was.
After disposing of it, we thanked
her for her kindness, and started
away. She called us back and said,
in a quiet, dignified manner, II have
given freely to you men such as /

not done for any sympathy of your
cause, for it is one | abhor and de-
test, but because | thought pou were

dignity of the lady made a deep i'm
erosion on me, that | shall never
forget. One evening, while quietly
trudging along near B~erryville, an
aged negress, leaning on a fence, put
this query to us:
"Is deere any more sojers to hin

Replying in the Affirmative, she
broke out again +: "'Fore God, / neb-

The Midnight SUN in August

The correspondent of the New
York Herald who is with the Are
tic Exploring Steamer Alliance,
says: On our way through the
ice, which was made with slow
ness and caution, we had our first
clear view of the midnight sun,
whose altitude observed by the
sextant was 4 deg. 33min. 40. In
the clear water astern several
white whales sported about. The
statement that whale fishing is no
longer successful, seems strange in
view of the fact that since we rave
been in the Arctic seas we have
never been a day without seeing
them, We have encountered
whales OF all kinds and in abund-
ance. Subsequent to this we had,
if possible, a better view of the
midnight sun, without the dis
tracing accompaniments of
whales. We had to force our way
north after slow sailing in the ice
pack, to within sight of Spitz9er-
gen, and when again viewing the
midnight sun we were quite near
Horn Sound, the most southern
ford on the south western coast of
Spitzbergen. The first success of
our expedition had been scored. 1t
was a clear, bright night this(don't
mind the seeming confusion of
terms with not a heck of cloud
as big as a mustard seed in the
amber sky.
The sun looked like a great disk
of molten gold, which seemed
through the smoked snow glasses
to throb and p~ulsate, sending rays
of light from IFS center to Its rim.
These soft rolling ripples of light
seemed to depart from the periph-
cry with irreguIarity, although
they started from the center as If
a pebble had been dropped there.
Sometimes they would depart
from the rim with the same reg
ularity as they started, and then
again they seemed to hurry off on
one side and delay on the other,
giving the sur for an instant an
oblong appearance. This mid
night sun was not alone sensible
to the eye; one could feel its rays,
which burned the skin with the
copper warmth of Indian summer
days.

A Book FOR THE CHILDREN
Through the publishers, w. J. Hol-
land, Springfield, Mass, we have a
copy of the "Children's Album of
Pictures and Stories" by Rev. Asa
Ballard, editor of We'll. Spring"
Pausing in the whirl of business to
glance through this little volume
realizing that there ought to be a
scripture of childhood-a real Bible
of innocence for the child, men and
women-to us, alas passed and seal
ed-we are attracted by the pictures
so full of meaning, SO striking, that
little eyes can read them before even
knowing a letter, that we at once see
the authors design and join earnest
ly with him in his effort. Att the
stories L intended to benefit and
guide early the morals and to aid
parents in their serious work of cor
rectly training their children. The
short, wee stories are so sweetly
written as to be sufficiently enter
tanning to parents to read aloud and
the pictures will entertain the little
ones for hours at a time. 1t is sold
very cheap by subscription and our
well known citizens, Rev. r.. Ii.
Whitlock and Mr.. w. II. Keedy,
are canvassing for subscribers. We
commend the work and have no
doubt but that the ministry and
teachers of this community will give
it their earnest endorsement.
