Leaving the Old Farm.

Sampson Atkins, farmer near Circlevilles
o., hung himself because he was compelled to
move on q farm on which he had lived since
hildhood.-Exchange.
And still there are people who will
go on wondering and inquiring how to
keep the boys on the farm. Here Is q
man who had grown up with the old
farm and become so attached TO, that to
leave the scenes Of his boyhood broke
his heart, and he hid his grief In q sui
cide's grave. There is no sense in talk
ing about how the boys may be kept on
the farm. To be sure, farm life is not
one continual circus day, as in the city,
nor fourth of July, and farmers can
make their sons hate the old farm home
by subjecting them to all manner of
drudgery, the same as they would apair
Of yearling steers, and expect them TO
wear tho woke. and never make kick.

Scientific Nursing.

There is no subject of so much gen.
eral interest as this, concerning which
there is, at the same-time, such u wide
ly prevalent ignorance. There are few,
especially among women, upon whom
will not devolve at some time in their
lives, the care of the sick; fewer still
who will not at some time become de-
pendent upon such care; and it might
naturally be supposed that matters of
such primary and universal Importance
as sanitary conditions and the practical
application in the sick room of scientific
principles would be too familiar to ev-
cry one to need to be further enlarged
upon. But the fact is, it too frequent
ly happens that all the scientific knowl-
edge which ever enters the sick-room
comes in with the doctor and goes out
again with him.
This state of things requires to be i'm
proved. knowledge, and that correct
knowledge we call science, is just as in
difpensable to the nurse as to anybody
else. 1t is a great mistake to suppose
that all women-even all good women
make good nurses. The best intentions
and the tenderest heart may co-exist
with an utter lack of executive ability,
and be more than counterbalnaced by
ignorance and prejudice. Native apti-
tude gives advantage, but it cannot be
relied upon alone. Even those who pos.
sess in the highest degree the natural
gift of ministration which renders them
30 acceptable to the invalid would find
their power of usefulness very largely
increased by familiarity with what
may be properly called the science Of
the sick-room. Physicians are recog-
nizing more and more the Importance
of hygienic agencies in the treatment Of
disease, and with this there has come
an increasingly urgent call for the sci
entific instruction and practical training
of those who are to take charge of in
valids. Science explains the conditions
upon which the art of the nurse de-
ponds, and lays down principles which
cannot be violated without injury; but
it is not at all necessary to make par
ade of technical language in stating its
requirements. 1t is the object of the
present article to furnish few simple
directions for the care of the sick that
have the warrant of practical expert

Close up the ranks, Republicans,
and again carry the old banner to
victory. The ticket has exceptional
good qualities. In fact better candi-
dates were never placed before the
people than are the Republican can
didates on the state ticket this spring.
Each. Of the candidates has pecu-
liar fitness for the position for which
he was placed in nomination. Hence
il fitness is requisite to be considered,
then the Republican ticket is enti-
tied to the support of every Republi.
can voter.

In comparing wood with coal rs q
fuel, It Is safe to assume that two and
quarter pounds of dry wood are equal
to one pound average quality of soft
coal, and that the fuel value of the same
weight of different woods is very nearly
the same. That Is to say, a pound OF
hickory is worth no more as fuel than
pound of pine, assuming both to be
dry. II the value be measured by
weight, it Is important that the wood be
thoroughly dry, as each 10 per cent. Of
water or moisture will detract about IL
per cent. from its value as fuel. II
may be interesting in this connection
to give the weight Of one cord OF diff
ferent woods which are thoroughly
dry. These weights are about as fol-
lows:
Hickory or hard maple, pounds. .......... $500
White oak, pounds. $3.50
beech, red oak, and black oak, pounds :. g. go
Poplar. chestnut and elm, pounds. .2,350
The fuel value of these different kinds
of wood, as compared with coal, is about
as follows:
Ono cord hickory or hard maple equal to
One cord white oak equal TO COAL pounds. :. LIS
One cord beech, red oak, or black oak equal
One cord poplar, chestnut. or elm equal to
coal, pounds. ACKNOWLEDGEMENT, 0j0
One cord average Of pine equal to coal, -
Il is supposed, Of course, in both Ia
bles that all thewood had been air-dried
and the comparative values of woods
not mentioned in the table may readily
be appropriated bv the reader.

The Sunday Newspapers.

The action OF small majority of the
Methodist ministerial association of
Philadelphia, in pronouncng judgment
against the daily newspapers which
print Sunday editions is not important
IN itself, for variety of reasons, chief
among them being the small number in
attendance at the meeting and the
weight OF the protesting minority, who,
though less in number, are quite as for.
chile as those who voted for the re.
port" of which Father Tom" Fernley
Is the author.
The discussion over the question,
however, was significant as illustrating
the embarrassments which surround the
most pious men in dealing with consider
atlons relating to strict observance of
the Sabbath in accordance with the laws
OF God and Of human society. 1t was,
Tor example, no argument in this minis
terial association against the Sunday
edltions OF the news papers that they
involved an interruption of the ordained
oaopath rest from labor; for the ready
offset TO this was the fact that the me.
chanicai and editorial work on these edi.
tions is mostly done on Saturday
whereas it is the Monday newspapers
that really involve actual labor of thi,
kind on the Lords day-and none of tn,
good Methodist brethren evinced an,
disposition to abate the Monday paperl
nor dispense with them for their owl
reading ; indeed, the majority showed {
disposition to favor the journals whicl
crowd the most work in their publication
into the first day of the week.
It's true, as claimed, by the Metho
dist ministers, that some of the Sunda,
newspapers display a special taste foI
unreasonable and sensational news, ,
but only in greater degree perhaps than
the same journals exhibit in their ordin
airy publications. On the other hand,
many OF them furnish a variety of most
excellent literary aud even religious
