mechanics and tradesmen generally, and It
is confidently anticipated that before
the first annual meeting OF the as
ISOLATION on the 9TH of February next this
number will be more than doubled. 1t re-
Quires no argument to demonstrate that the
power Of such an association Of citizens, en-
ergetically and intelligehtiY exerted, will be
fOrciblv felt In any cause in which 1t may be
employed, and therefore beneficial results in
the important and, to the community, vital
matters Of improved public health, purer
water supply, effective drainage, and gene
raj sanitation may be expected as the out
growth of the effort of this association.
The objects of the association are to d.
minish the mortality and improve the health
fitness OF the city by procuring for its
members the benefits Of proper sanitation
Of their own premises; to prevent the intro
duction or spread of disease; to aid the pub
lie authorities in carrying into effect eli
proper ordinances or laws relative TO public
health, and to adopt systematic measures
for the collection and proper distribution OF
money or property derived from voluntary
subscriptions or otherwise, in such manner
as will best tend to preserve life and pro-
perry, and promote the prosperity and
health of the city Of Savannah and adjacent
country.

THE HOUSEHOLD.
womaniy nIodesry.

Ma loves the mysterious. A cloudless
sky and full blown rose leaves him un-
moved but the violet which hides its
blushng beauties behind the bush, and
the moon when emerging from behind
cloud, are TO him sources OF inspiration
and of pleasure. Modesty is to merit
what shade is to figure in painting-it
gives holiness and prominence. Nothing
adds more TO female beauty than modesty.
It sheds around the countenance q halo OF
light which is borrowed from virtue. Bot
anists have given the rosy hue which ting
es the cup of the white roses the name Of
the maiden blush This pure and deli
cate hue is the only paint Christian virtue
should use. Ii is the richest ornament.
a woman without modesty is like faded
Hover diffusing an unwholesome odor,
which the prudent gardener will throw
from him. Her destiny is melancholy, for
it terminates in shame and repentance.
Beauty passes like the flower of the Abe,
which bloom and die in few hours; but
modesty gives the female charms which
supply the place of the transitory fresh
ness of youth.

Lemons.

The following concise account OF The
properties and uses Of the lemon is taken
from an exchange. The facts contained
are we'll worthy to be borne in mind, for
few people are acquainted with the various
ways in which this most useful fruit may
be employed with benefit
The lemon is native of Asia. although
IL is cultivated i'm Italy, Portugal, and in
the south Of France. In Europe, however,
ii seldom exceeds the dimensions of the
smallest tree, while its native state is TO
grow over ninety feet in height.
Every part of this tree is valuable in
medicine, though we rarely employ any of
it but its fruit, that is, the lemon itself.
And every one knows how to employ
, this, as in lemonade: TO squeeze the juice
into cold water, this is the shortest way, or
to cut into slices and let soak i'm cold water !;
IT to cut into slices and then boil il; either
way is good. Lemonade is one of the best
and safest drinks for any person, whether
in health or not. II is suitable in all stOm-
ach diseases. is excellent in sickness
eases of iaundice, gravel, liver complaint,
inflammation of the bowels and fcvers.
II is n specific against worms and skin
complaints. The pippins crushed may also
be used with water and sugar as drink.
Lemon juice is the hest anti-scOrhutic
remedy known. II not only cures the dis
ease. but prevents it, Sailors make II daily
use of it for this purpose. A physician
suggests rubbing of the gums daily with
lemon iuice TO keep them in healthy
condition.
The hands are also kept clean. white

instead of soap. II also prevents chill

cured by rubbing the part affected with n
lemon II is valuable to cure warts and to

roots of the hair with il. In fact its uses
are manifold, and the more we employ il

A shad net Is very different from a robin.


A robin takes only the strawberry, where
as the net takes everything. Before you
get tall spread out, il mas caught around
coat buttons. sleeve-buttons, scarf-pin, and
shoe-buttons, and anything else it can grab,
and the first result of your experiment Is
10 find yourself considerably involved, as
they say when u man runs away. In this
ease, however, you are so involved that
there is no running. When tits unwound,
you finally do spread the net over your
plants preparatory to stretching 1t on q
frame. IL settles quietly down and the
work is about done. AT last you give O
hearty pull and lift the net off the ground.
IL comes, but it still has the same charac-
teristics that made it grab every button
you had. In each mesh is either berry
or blossom. Thinking they will shake
out you pull still harder. Suddenly they
start, and before you realize it, you have
stripped the whole of them off your vines.
There they lie, from red berry to white
Hover, the whole harvest cleaned right OF.
Thus the net is more thorough than the
robin, but they each work to the same re-
suit.
For us in the city, therefore, it is q
choice of evils If we insist upon pre-
tending to raise berries, we must de-
eide between cultivating shad nets OF
robins. The berry business is mere
disguise for these other industries. There
are reasons why it is better to let the net
alone and attend only to robins. The for
mer are rather rank in flavor. The more
you handle them the more the unpleasant
side OF the fish business suggests itself.
Not so the robin. 1t is q real delicacy.
The thing to do is to realize the true worth
of the bird. We must dispose of senti-
ment as the robin does of the berries
swallow it. The fact is there is nothing bet
ter on the table than good plump robin,
and there is no more reason why we should
rebel against killing robins, than telephone
TO the market for pair of "broiled chick
ems. A birds q bird for a that. We
must come to regard the berry crop as q
means to an end. 1t is like grain on a
stock farm. 1t fattens the animals. That
is the whole Of it. There is no call 10
worry about lost fruit, if only by and by
we rejoice over birds that are gathered
The time will come when people will real
.ze this, and one robin pot-pie will balance
a good many lost strawberry shOrteakes
so long us we try TO raise trees and birds
and berries, one of the crop il doomed to
fail. Our duty is to harvest what is left

that II is temporarily injurious not because
the article is of itself had bat because of
taking too much at one dose. The proper
way To feed salt is to place it where the
stock can go to it as they please and take
what they are inclined TO eat Never mix
il with their food, so that they are com
PEELED To take il whether they wish il or
not. More and better butter can be made

IAN be placed under the shed or in some
other convenient spot. But oftentimes

that is most conveniently supplied in wood
lshes, which horses, cattle, sheep and swine
will greedily devour when they have an

robins ana strnwperrre..

The robin gets its name from its relation
To the, strawberry bed. We believe tn
naturaliss and philologsts are agreed up
on this point. Some very earnest cham
pions, not only of the theory of design in
everything, but also of mans ability to
discover every time what the design is,
contend that the red breast of the bird is
given it as a protection, like the white of
the snow ptarmigan or the autumn brown
of the partridge, so that when at work
among the red berries its color will prevent
its detection.
This works up neatly, but we doubt it.
II is the theory of the philosopher in his
closet, not of the gardener in his paradise
The fact is, there is certain nervousness
in the temperament of the bird that pre-
vents it from waiting for the red berries,
which has tendency to weaken this other
wise clever conclusion. The owner of the
strawberry plants, as the crop approaches
maturity, surveys the bed with no little
pride, notes the earliest and most promis-
ing plants and decides that the next day
he will pick cupful for taste. But that
very day the robin drops down among the
immature fruit, regardless of any question
of the fitness of colors, and clears off every
thing that has any show Of ripening about
it. If the supply is little scant he eats
off some of the entirely hard ones and
throws them about, lust for greens, as
they say. On the other hand, If the supply
is TOO liberal, after he has eaten his fill he
goes about puncturing the rest, slashing
them to pieces with his beak.
On the first day this is a disappointment
TO the cultvator; by the third day, 1t is a
real annoyance on toward the middle OF
the second week il is IN unbearable out
raas and he buys a shad net for protection.
