2 HUMAN NATURE is curious trait
OF human nature that men who are con I.
stantly exposed to some special form of
danger are the. last TO take the obvious
precaution against it. II is no uncommon
thing, for example, for a saflor 10 be igno-
rant of swimming, If indeed this may not
be said of the majority of sailors. The
shell rover is liable at any moment TO be
tipped out Of his crank and flimsy craft !;
yet Edward Hanlon, the champion, only
learned to swim last summer, and can
even swim but few strokes, the muscles
of his arms, strangely enough for so pow
erful sculler, quickly becoming tired.

If music be part of worship and we are
to employ few TO perform this part for
US, let US at least be sure that we have the
soul in the song; let us not sacrifice
heartfelt praise. sincere thanksgiving for
mere taste and culture. Let the frivolous
and giggling choir depart even if the
artistic effect must depart also. Let us
insist on heartfelt worship. real praise in
the song; if with this we can have refined
music very well; if not let the refinement

way.-Domestic Journal.

COFFEE IN TYPHOID FEvER.-Dr.
Guillasse, of the French navy, reports
that, in the early stages of the disease,
coffee is always specific against typhoid
fever. He gives to adults two or three
teaspoonfuls of strong, black coffee every
two hours, alternating with one or two
teaspoonfuls of claret or Burgundy wine.
The beneficial effect is immediate. A
little lemonade or citrate of magnesia
should be given daily, and after while
quinine.

Mamie having been helped twice to
everything on the table, slid down, when
the coffee came in, from her chair, with a

toss of her little head. Il on'y Just feel

uetss nFsa tAs CanpgEoa1A.
We are paying our Arst visit to the Mecca
of Kenuebec valley Methodist. Many have
been here before me this season, and have
left their footprints" by way Of planting
vines around their cottages and clearing mp
generally.
Our stay must be short and your readers
will expect to hear how things look about
this time, and l will endeavor to enlighten
them.
As we alight from the train We notice that
everything looks clean and sweet. Workmen
are preparing the wharf or'' floats" so steam
ers can land their passengers with comfort.
The whole forest to the enclosure was swept
by fire early in the spring, and all that is
seen of it now is the blackened and
dead trees. Not many trees are dead
yet. but from year to year they succumb to
the inevitable.
The superintendent of the property has
erected a new building where the old one
was burned. 1t is at too great a distance.
but his orders were to place it there and so
it must be right The shed is full of wood
and large pile is ready for cottagers who
cook their food. Many buy the food cooked
at the boarding house and consider it much
cheaper and certainly much more convenient.
Since last season the grounds have been
leveled and roots that were troublesome re-
moved, which is a decided improvement.
The bridge that spanned the gulley below
the boarding house had become unsafe, and
has been removed and a new one built. The
new one is some three feet lower than the
old one. A little less expensive but more con-
venient. The first bridge was built by
cottagers on Baker Avenue for their own
convenience, but has become a great
thoroughfare for all in that part of the town.
The Brunswick society will paint their new
chapel before meeting. l have not learned
if any are to be erected this season but pre-
sumo some may be. 1t was expected that
Skowhegan would build a large chapel, with
rooms above. but have not learned what the
decision is. The pastor, Mr.. Bean, has been
here looking over the ground. learn that
the most desirable cottages that can be Oh
tanned, have already been engaged for the
season. Small cottages with one and two
rooms, that rent for ten dollars are not wanted,
as large two story ones that rent for fifteen
dollars are the ones that are in demand.
have not yet learned who is to conduct
the meeting this season, as was not present
when the directors met upon the grounds this
spring. but it will be announced in a few
days, probably.
1t will be but few DAYS before cottagers
will arrive to spend few weeks in the woods
and enjoy life, when / will write again.
While sitting upon the platform at the sta
ton, the writer counted fleet of ice vessels
numbering fifteen. The scene on the river
at this point reminds one of Boston harbor,
