The unpleasant and disagreeable odor
produced by perspiration is frequently
the source of vexation to persons who
are subject to it. Nothing is simpler
than to remove this odor much more
effectually than by the application of
such costly unguents and perfumes as
are in use. 1t is first Of all necessary
to compound spirits of ammonia, and
place two table-spoonfuls in basin of

sweet and fresh as one could wish. The

THE COUNTRY SCHOOL.

Near forty years have come and fed
Since I, a careless. happy child.
First to the fount of learning sped,
To taste it's waters sweet and mild
A sunny spot on memory's chart,
1 see the dear old school-room yet;
And, clinglng closely round my heart.
Its charms never can forget.
Its every look still retain,-
The teachers pulpit-desk so tall,
The rows Of benches clumsy plain,
The charcoal sketches on the wall.
hear, in these golden days,
The rustling leaves of wel-worn books,
And catch the gleam where mischief plays
In merry winks and tender looks.
The school-hOuse, then so old and gray,
Still stands below the noisy mill,
Then nature holds her ancient sway
OF wood and rock and murmuring rill.
The birds still fit from bush and bower,
Or graceful sway on bending boughs;
JUN IIOlu IlO ulLloS hnOH bDduOWo lUWtt,
Sound tinkllDg bells of grazing cows.
Sweet waters bubble in the spring
And sweeter berries ripen near,
And, as Of yore, the children bring
Of each, their teachers heart to cheer.
And STILL when comes the noontide hour
All sail our pleasures swollen stream,
The teacher yields her sceptered power,
And mirth and freedom rule supreme
The boys with hustle, storm and shout,
Still speed to tests of strength and skill,
Or roam as then the hills about,
Led on by fancys own sweet will;
The girls still string fair daisy chains,
And deftly braid the rushes sweet
And deck the hats of favorite swains,
While partial glances shift and meet.
And from the mammoth boulder white,
Where rudely carved is many name,
Young orators, with broken fight,
Still soar away for realms of fame.
And just as then, with happy look,
The children dance upon the green,
Or gaily sail adown the brook
Their birch bark boats of silver sheer.
But scattered wide on lifes rough sea-
Or anchored safe by the golden gates.-
Are they who sailed of old with me
Along those happy, haIcyon straits
Yet green and dear, through storm and shine
Till lIfe's December ebbs and ends,
VIII be those days of ''auld lang syne,'
When life was May and friends were friend

CHIMBoRAzo AND coToPAxI.

climber, recently described to London
audience his ascents of the Andean peaks
of Chimborazo Cotopaxi.' He and his
party reached the summit of Chimborazo
on the 3rd of January of last year after
most arduous climb. They found the
wind blowing at the rate of fifty miles an
hour, from the northeast, and driving the,
snow before it. With extreme difficulty
reading of the mercurial barometer was
effected. The mercury fell to AL inches
with temperature of 2lo Fair. This
being worked out, in comparison with a
nearly simultaneous observation of Quay
aquil, gave 2O,545 feet for the height of
Chimborazo. They began the descent at
twenty minutes past five, with scarcely
quarter of an hour of daylight, and reach
ed their camp (about 17,400 feet above
the sea leveD about 9 P. NJ, having been
out nearly sixteen hours, and on foot the
whole time.
Passing from an extinct to an active
volcano, Mr.. Whymper next gave an ac-
count of his journey to the crater Of Co.
topaxi. Observing with the telescope,
during an enforced stay at Machachi,
that much less smoke or vapor was Civ
en- off at night than by day, he resolved,
if possible, to spend a night on the sum-
nit. On the 0th of February the party
got to the edge of the crater, having
passed almost the whole way from their
camp at height of $4,000 feet to the
foot of the final cone over snow and then
over ash mixed with ice. The final cone
was the steepest part of the ascent, and
on their side presented an angle of 360.
When they reached the crater vast guam
titles of smoke and vapor were boiling
up, and they could only see portions of
the opposite side at intervals, and the
bottom not at all. Their tent was pitch
ed 250 feet from the edge of the crater,
and during violent squall the India
rubber floor of the tent was found to be
on the point of melting, maximum
thermometer showing a temperature of
1l00 on one side of the tent, and of but
| fho =
72.5o. Outside it was intensely cold,
and thermometer on the tent cord
showed minimum of 130. At night
they had iDe view of the crater, which
has a diameter from north to south of
1000 feet, and from east to west of
about l 500 feet In the interior the
walls descend to the bottom in a series
of steps of precipice, and slope good
thousand feet, and at the bottom there
was nearly circular spot of glowing
fire 1000 feet in diameter. On the
sides of the interior higher up, assures,
from which flickering flames were leap
ing, showed that the lava was red hot a
very short distance below the surface.
The height he found to be 1860 feet.
The party remained at the top twenty
six consecutive hours, sleeping about $50
feet below the loftiest point.
Nearly five months later, Mr.. Whym-
per returned to Chimborazo, and from a
second reading of the barometer at IA,
028 inches, with a temperature of l50
Fahr., he made the height 20,469 feet,
the mean of the two readings giving
20,5l7 feet. While on the side of
Chimborazo he witnessed magnificent
eruption of Cotopaxi, ashes rising in a
column 10000 feet above the rim of the
crater and then spreading over an area
of many miles.

THE DRUNKARD'S FAMILY.

Ye who have felt the joy
Ofchildhood's guarded life,
Pity the drunkard's boy
And the drunkard's wretched wife,
Through the dreary winters day
He leaves them alone and i'll;
Night falls on his gloomy way,
But afar he fingers still.
Hunger and cold are there
In that house of want and woe,
Where all the blasts of air
Through the broken windows blow.
They have no bread to eat,
They have no wood for the hearth
save what the loud storms beat
From the giant trees in wrath.
The worn and weary wife
Sits shivering in her rags,
Bewailing wasted life
That all too heavily drags.
Her moaning baby is pressed,
In the misery of despair.
Close, close to her aching breast.
But the death-chills find it thereI
Away through the drifted snow,
Some pltylng heart to seek,
Their boy in his shame must go,
Hungry, and tattered, and weak.
Oh ! pity the drunkard's wife
And his poor, forsaken boy,
And shun the drunkard's life,
For he knows no innocent joy.

A Sharp Advance in Country Markets.

LONDON, June 20.-The Mark Lane Er-
press, IN review of the British grain trade the
past week, says: Weather, with the exception
of few cold nights, has been favorable to the
growth of all crops. 4 copicus rainfall has
improved the prospects of spring sowings
The scarcity of fresh samples throughout the
country markets advanced prices Cd to Is.
The attempt to obtain similar advance in
London Monday failed, but it was partially
realized Friday, millers being obliged
to supply their needs. Flour steadily
maintains its value. Sales are easier on
sccoxnt of smaller foreign arrivals. Foreign
held firmly and some favorite brands improved
Cd Monday. Lately the immense importation
of foreign flour has paralyzed the British
milling interests. If a very much larger
proportion Of American wheat reaches us

influence will grayely change the system Of
