these, q run of an hour or two in the
afternoon OF the day, have found to
be Of. great benefit. 1t is change.
and if they be allowed some fresh
earth to scratch amongst, it is all the
better. 1t appears to be natural
thing for fowls to exercise the muscles
in this manner; consequently it is for
their health. Any lover Of poultry
should be willing to allow his fowls the
short breathing space OF n couple OF
hours in the yard or on the lawn. and
watch them that they do no serious
damage. They soon learn. where reg
ularity is duly observed. to wait and
watch for their time to come, and en-
JOY it amazingly. Fowls. especially the
common sorts, are no better for ram
bling over so great territory when
fully grown, if they are well taken care
of and true regularity observed; chicks
are the better for full liberty, although
these may be greatly checked.
Turkeys will not submit to this treat
ment with so good grace. Their very
nature leads them to seek the mount
aims, and hills and open pastures, and
they are the better. They are not,
neither can they ever be, q yard fowl

THE EMPTY CRADLE.

Sic sits beside the cradle,
And her tears are streaming fast,
For che sccs the present only,
While she thinks Of all the past
OF the days so full Of gladness,
When her irst.borns 5 answering kiss
Thrilled her soul with such rautu.c
That it knew no other bliss.
Oh, those happy, happy moments,
They but deepen her despair
For she bends above the cradle,
And her baby is not there.
There are words Of comfort spoken,
And the lcadcn clouds of grief
Wear the smiling bow vi PROMISE,
And she feels sad relief
But her wavcring thoughts will wander,
Till they settle OH the scene
OF the dark anu silent chamber,
And Of all that might have been:
For II little vacant garment,
Or a shining trcss Of hair,
Tells her heart, in tones Of anguish,
That her baby is not there.
She sits bcsile The cradle,
But her tears no longer flow;
For she sees blessed vision,
And forgets all earthly woes.
SANITY eyes look down upon rcr,
And the voice that huShCa the sea
Stills kcr spirit with the whisper,
"SutIcr them to come to Me.
And while her soul is lifted
On the soaring wings of prayer,
Heavens crystal gates swing inward
And she sees her baby there.

HEALTH HINTS.


WASH FOR SUNBuRN.-Takc two drains
Of borax, one dram Of Roman alum, one
dram Of camphor, half an ounce Of sugar
candy and one pound Of OK gall mix and
stir we'll for ten minutes or So, and repeat
this stirring three or four times Il day for
fortnight, until it appears clear and trans.
parent; strain through blottinS paper and
bottle up for use.
AN EXCELLENT DRINK FOR TIE SICK.
Toast ripe Indian corn quite brown, or
even little black, and put it into hot wa
ter to steep; drink when cold. THIS makes
one of the best drinks for the sick, and will
often stop sickness at the stomach when all
other remedies fail.
LIGHT BLANKErs.-Thcrc is good deal
of sense in the following advice: Never
Use anything but light blankets to cover the
sick. The heavy, impcrvious cuuntcrpanc
Is bad, for the reason that it keeps the OK
halatOnS irum the pores of the sick person.
while the blanket allows them to pass
through. Weak persons are invariably dis
trcsscd by great weight of bc,;clothcs,
which often prevent their getting any sound
sleep whatever.
REST FOR IIEADACHES-Dr Day says.
in 4 late lecture Whatever be the plan
Of treatment decided upon, rest is the first
principle to iucucatc in every severe head
ache. Rest, which the busy man and anX-
ious mother cannot obtain 50 long as they
manage to keep about, is one Of the first
remedies for every headache, and We should
never cease to enforce it. The brain when
excited as much needs quiet and rcposc as
4 fractured limb or an infamcd cy.; it is
obvious that the chances Of shortening the
seizure and arrcSting the pain will depend
on our power to have this carried cut effect
ually 1t is Il practical lesson to keep stead
lily i'll view, i'll that there mav lurk behind
Il simple headache some lesion of unknown
magnitude which may remain stationary if
quictule can be maintained. There is
point worth attending to IN the treatment
of all headaches Sec that the head is clc-
vatcd at night an! the pillow hard, for if it
be soft the head sinks into it and becomes
hot, which with some people is enough t.
provoke an attIck in the III rniny, il Sleep

trials these days the plea Of insanity has be,
come 50 common as 10 be regarded almost
Il matter Of course. If a man, harborluS
in his breast the resentment Of years, meets
the object of his dislike on the streets and
shoots him down, it is suddenly discovered
that he was insane il filled with bad whis-
key he goes home and beats his vile to
death he is found to be insane; If he
hunts up poor betrayed girl, whom he
calls Sister and savaS"!y murders her, he Is
insane; il he deliberately points Il gun aud
puts handful OF buckshUt into the body
Of an aged father insanity comes to his re-
lief, and the more cOolly planned aud dit-
bolically executed the better the greater
the atrocity, the moro powerful element it
becomes i'll the defence. In point Uf econ
omoy, mt least for justice does not meet CON
sdcration, it would be better to repeal the
criminal code as it applies to murders, and
send them red handed to some friendly as
sylum, to be treated and turned loose in u
little while to indulge their insanG freaks on
other victims.
There is judge in California. however,
who does not believe in the insane dodge,
and recently sentenced two men VIII were
tried for murder and put in the usual plea.
This judg3 instructed til jury that the iu-
sanity must be established ut the time the
murder was committed not by Inference but
by unqucStionablc proof, not by the opinion
of experts but by facts which left no doubt
in the minds Of the jury
If Judges generally took this view Of it
justice would be more frequently dispensed
