Cloves.

Cloves are the unopened flowers of n
small evergreen tree that resembles 10

native of the Molucca. or Spice Islands,
but has been carried to all the warmer
parts of the world and is now cultivated
in the tropical regions of America The
flowers are small in size and grow in
large numbers in clusters to the very
edges of the branches. The cloves we
use are the flowers gathered while they
are opened and while they are still
green. After being gathered they are
smoked by wood FIRE and then dried
in the sun. Each Glove consists of two
parts-of a round head which is formed
of the four petale, Or leaves, or flowers

stalks or tilaments; the other part
of the Glove is terminated with four
points, and is, in fact, the flower of the
unripe seed-vessel. All these parts may
be seen if a few cloves are soaked for a
short time in hot water, when the leaves
of the flower soften and readily unroll.

The Growing Child.

The discussion of the formation and
development of character can not be
otherwise than interesting to the
earnest mothers who turn to this COL
umn, and who must daily have this
question in their own minds while
bringing up their families. None
more than they feel the need of wisdom
to direct, of patience to labor untiringlv
and to wait. of well-balanced Judgment
and impartial decision in the duties and
responsibilities resting upon them. So
we offer no apology for presenting a
few thoughts on subject, trite indeed,
but in the nature of things rs fresh as
each days need and incapable of being
worn out. Are we not all children?
Are not the most grown up" of us still
forming and developing character?
Still trying 90 '.walk BY the same rule
and mind the same thing as when our
feet first sought the paths of virtue
Must we not still keep "chiseling away
to keep the fine lines fine to keep the
inscriptions on our souls clear cut and
clean from the MOSES that custom and
careleSsness cause to grow over them?
We all know that the man who habit
ually and from principle speaks the
truth believes that there may be truth
speaking people in the world beside
himself The student of human nature
at once writes down one who is always
accusing others of falsehood as ineapa-
BILE himself of adhering to the truth:
one who is always suspecting the purity
of others is himself impure. The hon
est man believes other men may be
honest, while the thief doubts every
body. And this principle applies to
every one of the virtues and vices. We
are always ready to believe of others
what we know to be true of ourselves.
The liar will find excuses for his living,
the thief for stealing, and even the muir
derer thinks his crime ought to be con-
doned. No sooner has q man entered
upon an evil course than he tries to ex-
cuse or justify himself, or palliate his
misdoing. After time his conscience
becomes scared, and he rests easy in
opinions that are conformed to his char
acter.

A TREELESS STATE.

81 had dream which was not all dreamr'
a great State was q desert, and the land
Law bare and lifele>s under sun and storm.
Treeless and shelterless- Spring came, and
went
And came, but brought no joy; but in its
stead
The desolatiou of the ravening floods
That feaped like wolves or wildcats from
the hills
And spread destruction over fruitful farms,
Deyouring as they went the works of man,
And sweeping southwark natures kindly
To choke the water-courses, worse than
waste
The forest trees that in the olden time
The pc nple's glory and the poets pride
Tempered the air and guarded well the
earth,
And under spreading boughs for ages kept
Great reservoirs TO hold the snow and rain,
From which the moisture through the tenn
ing year
Flowed equally but freely-aIl were gone:
Their priceless boles exchanged for petty
cash
The cash had melted. and had left no sign;
The logger and the lumberman were dead;
The ak had rusted out for lack of use;
But all the endless evil they had done
Was manifest upon the desert waste.
Dead springs no longer spanked in the sun;
Lost and forgotten brooks no longer
laughed:
Deserted mills mourned all their moyeless
wheels:
The snow no longer covered as with wool
Mountain and plain, but buriei starving
hocks
In arctic drifts: in rivers and canals
The vessels rotted idly on the mud
Until the spring floods buried all their
bones.
Great cities that had thriven wOndrous'y.
Before the source of thrift was swept away,
Faded and persisted. as Il plant win die
With water baniShcd from its roots and
leaves:
And men sat starving in the treeless waste.
Beside their fruitless farms and empty
marts.
And wondered at the ways of Providence.

Cicero. ~ see the right and approve II.

Cicero, al see the right and approve 4,
but pursue the wrong"
Says one: This child was born with
o proclivity for theft, for falsehood, for
! anger, and can these original tenden-
cies be taken out of him?" Perhaps
not entirely, but right alongside these
evil tendencies may be planted germs
of principle, of impulse and action that
shall by proper cultivation develop and
overshadow and neutralize the evil ten
denotes. A great ambition will lift q
man out of a thousand narrownessess
and WEAKNESSES. A great love will
consume in its fire the roots even of sell
fishness. Acguisitiveness may be
checked by the cultivation of benevo-
lence: exact conformity of words to
facts may be taught in a great variety
of ways; and as a failure to speak the
exact truth is the commonest vice Of
childhood (and of all morally weak
persons) it may be well to enlarge here
on methods of teaching children to
speak the truth. In the first place, the
parent must set the example. If there
are degrees in wickedness, it is more
wicked to lie to child than to an adult,
yet many parents constantly deceive
and prevaricate when dealing with
their children. In the second place,
the first and smallest departure from
the truth in the child must be noticed
and corrected, gently, kindly and from
high moral conviction. The child
should never be driven to tell an I'M
truth by fear, and should in every case
be made TO know that his untruihs do
not in the least deceive. Learning to
read with perfect accuracy will help
child tell the exact truth, because it will
form in him the habit of calling words
what they are, and train him in observ.
ing distinctions between things that are
different, and between things that are
similar but not identical. Teachers will
observe that children who arecareful to
speak the truth are always better read
ers and better scholars than those whose
word can not be depended on. Hold
ing children to high standard of reci-
tation in their various studies aids in
forming the habit of veracity.
1t Is only by the utmost painstaking,
continued day after day and year after
year. that great virtues grow from lit
tie seeds and great vices are choked,
little by little. till they are finally ex-
tirpated. How long the labor, but how
noble the reward! ..He that goeth
forth and weepeth, bearing precious
seed, shall doubtless come again with
rejoicing. bringing his sheaves with
him.. Y. Tribune

Drawing the Line at Snuff.

Mr.. c. o. Keach. of Johnston, has
separated from his wife under singular
circumstances. Mr.. Reach is about
sixty-two years old. and at least twice
the age of his wife, who is fine-look-
ing woman. Mr.. Reach has never used
liquor, coffee, tea or tobacco in any
form during his lifetime. with the ex-
ception that he once took 3 swallow OF
tea in New York State. but it made him
perspire so profusely that he never re-
peated the experiment. He used to be
very sensitive to the odor of tea, and
could not bear to be in a room when
tea was being poured out, though he
SAYS that he has allowed his present
wife to drink tea and coffee. 1t seems,
however, that the lady also uses snuff,
and Mr.. Reach, on discovering the fact
several months ago, gave her notice
that any persistence in the habit would
bring about separation. Finding. few
DAYS ago. that she continued the use of
the snuff box. he took her into the city
to the residence of relative. and there
left her, saving that no woman could
live with him who used snuff. The af-
fair has caused no little talk in John
ston. and the general sympathy IS with
the lady.-PrOrideRee Journal.

A Chinese Quack Doctor.

A quack medicine dealer was offering
to a crowd nostrums for every complaint.
This gentleman. whose stock-in-trade
consisted of few bottles, had a num-
Der OF diagrams purporting to repre-
sent the course OF illnesses in the hui
man body. As matter of fact, they
were absolute nonsense, but the good
Chinese who stood with open mouths
around him and listened with wonder
to all he said knew no better, so that
for all practical purposes his pictures
were good enough. Curiously enough,
however. he was most eloquent upon a
medicine which have since found has
Just made its appearance in England
under a patented name-namely, Men
thol. He declared it would cure all
nervous diseases if rubbed into the skin.
Our chemists and druggists now adver-
tise it as an antidote to neuralgia; so
that, after all. the Chinese quack doctor
was not such rogue as he looked.
The price of his drugs was high. He
had nothing under two-pence, which is
large sum among the peasants in
China. But be sold great numbers of
packets and did roaring trade for
hours had presently an opportunity
Of seeing how little difference existed
between him and the recognized pro-

10 a native hospital. Here. seated
on three little stools at three
tables, sat the faculty waiting for
patients. The INDECENT crowd as it
came in selected its own physician and
went to him. Then ensued species of
treatment which was about as curious
as can we'll be imagined. The Chinese
have theory that there is different
pulse in every limb. They also hold
that all complaints are connected with
either fire, air or water. And they place
immense faith in the benefit to be de-
rived from puncturing any affected part
with q long needle. So it came about
that when 3 man entered and consulted
one OF the: faculty, about pain in his
leg-probably rheumatic in its nature
the learned man, after glaring at him
for some time through an enormous
pair of goggles, proceeded to feel for
his ''ankle pulse which, when found,
to his satisfaction indicated some very
wonderful facts. The man was suffer-
ing, he remarked, from fire in the
leg, and must be punctured; saying
which he stirred up the limb with long
needle, till l, who looked on only, felt
positively i'll. This operation complet-
ed, he produced tiny plaster, probably
about an inch and half square, and
giving it to the man told him to put it
on the leg at night. The patient, who
seemed to have perfect confidence
in the doctor, hobbled off, and
the turn of the next victim then came
