The Too smart Judge

A good story, told at the expense of a
well.known, cx.iadge is going the rouads
Of the lawyers Offices, and II is heartily
appreciated by those who bes, know the
irsScible but good.natured disposition Of
the old gentleman. II was an admiralty

one day last week. How long, the ex.

to begin, and you tell me when 10 minutes

The sailor slyly winked at lawyer on tho

After three minutes had passed the eI-
judge became impatient and exclaimed.
"See here. are You going TO keep us here

A five and six and seven minutes went by
the lawyer became almost wild in his as
sumed anger at the man for keeping them
80 long beyond the time. But not until
the hand Of the clock was exactly on ten
minutes did the sailor speak. Then ho said
Guess the time must be about

The judge put up his watch and sank
back In his chair "Well,' he said, Of all
men dying or alive that ever saw, you
can measure time the best.
II is said that the ex.judge does not even
yet know what made the other lawyers

Give The Baby . Drink Of Water.

A city physician attributes large part
OF the excessive mortality OF children in
hot weather TO the failure OF nurses and
mothers to give them water; indeed more
children are said to die directly OF indi-
rectly) from deprivation Of water than
from any other cause. Infants, he says.
are always too much wrapped up, and in
any case would porspire very freely. The
water lost by perspiration must be sup.
piled. As DR.. Muidoch stated in his pa
per on cholera infantum, "The child is
thirsty. not hungry; but not getting the
water. which it does want, il drinks the
milk, which il does not want The con
sequence is that thelstomach is overloaded
with food which II cannot digest and which
soon ferments and becomes a source OF
severe irritation. Then follow vomiting.
purging, and cholera infantum.
Toprevont this, the principal scourge OF
infancy, the doctor says: Have water
without ice. always accessible TO the child.

eat only when hungry. Water is the great

SILENT GROVE, October, 1881,
ED. FREEMAN: Now that the
Temperance Executive Committee
has a new head we are more hope
full. There is a movement all along
the line, and the people are talking
Prohibition everywhere.
| congratulate you on the sue
cess Of the FREEMAN. Wherever it
goes it is as a star shining in every
home to give it's light to every
heart, that all may be warned of
the danger of intemperance.
Everywhere, now, the cry is, wa
ter, water. A few days ago a good
shepherd was laboring to convince
his flock that the terrible drouth
was a great blessing to man. The
thoughts Of rain, water, flood, was
continually in his mind, and after
thoroughly discussing the subject
again in the family circle, he retir-
ed at late hour, and was soon in
the land of dreams. He was soon
travelling with a friend, and come
to creek that was swollen by sud
den rains that had flooded the land
The stream must be crossed, and
after consultation it was decided to
cross it with bound, the parson to
take the lead. So getting good
ready" the fearful leap was taken.
Imagine the CONSERVATION Of the
whole house, aroused from sleep by
the terrible crash on the floor, and
the surprise of the Reverend jump
list himself, as he scrambled back
into bed with a damned knee, and
shaking up all through!

with writing this, but | subscribe

Philip Phillips.

From the volumes of testimony by
eminent critics who have reveled in
the soul of song filling the halls
where Mr.. Phillips has sung, we
may condense a few brief reasons
why our readers should all hear
him tomorrow evening at the NJ
e. Church
1. No singer can initiate him nor
surpass him in descriptive songs.
2. The audience can catch and
clearly understand every word and
sentiment Of the song This is the
SOULS delight in music.
3. His anecdotes and incidents Of
travel put spice into the evenings
entertainment that makes his hear
ers listen and listen still and long
for more.
4. His songs are pure and eleva-
ting.
5. The whole man is full of the
soul and sentiment Of the song, 50
that the audience cannot help get
ting full also, even if they would.
6. His son now sings with him,
with voice like his own.
7. The Chicago Times says che
possesses the same powerful voice
with which he thrilled us in New
York fifteen years ago"
We could fill the FREEMAN with
reasons for hearing Phillips, but go
and learn all the reasons in one de-
lightful evening.
