The following novel plan for check
ing bleeding of the nose, as given by
DR.. Gleason in one of his lectures,
is in the vigorous motion of the jaws,
as in the act of mastication. In the
case of a child wad of paper should
be placed in its mouth, and the child
should be instructed to chew it hard.
1t is the motion of the jaw that stops
the flow of blood. This remedy is
SO very simple that many feel inclined
to laugh at it, but it has never been
known to fail in single instance, so
it is said, even in severe cases.

HAD HIS CULIOSITY GTATI-
FLED.

A well-known citizen of Hartford,
Ct, had taken his seat in the train
for Providence, r. l., when a small,
weazened faced man came into the
car. A gentleman good naturedly
made room for him by his side, and
tie old man looked him over from
head to foot.
'"Going to Providence?" he said
at length.
''No, sir" said the stranger, po-
litely, 81 stop at Andover.
~ belong out that way myself.
Expect to stop long!''
"Only over night
"Did you caPclate to put up at the
tavern !"
mo, sir, expect to stop with Mr..
Skinner"
"What, Job SINNERS? Or, may
be it is at his brothers? Was it Tim
Skinner's-Squire Tim's-where you
are going?"
EYES, said the gentleman, smil-
ing Kit was Squire Tins"
''Dew tell, if you are going there
to stop over night! Are you any con-
nection of his'n?''
"No, SIR
"Well, now, that's Gurus The old
man hain't got into any trouble nor
nothin' has he?" lowering his voice;
''ain't got to serve writ on him,

"Oh, nothing of the kind"
"Glad ont. No harm in askin',
I suppose. 1 reckon Squire Skin
ner's some connection of yourn.
"No.' said the gentleman.
Then seeing the amused expression
on the faces of two or three acquain-
tances in the neighboring seats, he
added, in a confidential tone:
81 am going to see Squire Skin
ner's daughter
claws sakes," said the old man,
his face quivering with curiosity.
'sThat's it, is it? / want to know.
Going to see Mirandy Skinner, be

she's smart to work, they say, and |

And then, as the long strained
mirth of the listeners to this dialogue
burst forth at the old mans open
mouthed astonishment, he fastened
to explain:
II am a doctor, my friend, and
Squire Skinner called at my office
this morning to request my profess

SIXTY-THREE.

Tie following poem was read by Mrs. D. F. Town.
md of Burke at the 63d birthday of Mrs. W. b.
aniels of Westmore, Sept 18th.
You are sixty three years to-day, wife.
You are sixty three years they say,
But it must be Time has erred, wife,
He scarce has passed this ways
The years so short have seemed, wife,
Since we launched on life's broad sea.
In tiny craft just big enough
To hold, love, you and me.
But our tiny craft grew to ship,
As we sailed ON our way,
And crew of seven were given us,
Freighted with love and joy.
Sometimes our sky was darkened DER,
And the winds made rough the sea,
But Pilot true was at the helm,
And steered from breakers free.
And thrice you well remember, wife,
There came an angry wave,
And swept each time darling off;
We saw each new made grave.
But our Pilots arm was sure and strong,
IWOulu sweep ueatn ) SouHuieSS Sed,
He placed them on the golden shore
Where they wait for you and me.
1 see we're nearing the port, wife,
We just will round the bay,
When we may see in visions bright
The port of endless day.
You're sixty three years old, mother,
The record thus reads to-day;
We see in your placid brow,
Your hair just touched with gray.
To us you're always young, mother,
We see your youthful eyes,
We watch your smiles to children dear,
We hear your lullabys.
And as the hands of the dial plate
Shall point to your evening tide,
Well bring our gifts and heartfelt thanks;
Our love shall ere abide.
Wen ever strive to cheer your way,
And help your cares to smother.
For well we know whate're our gifts,
God gives us but one mother.
You're sixty-three years to-day, sister,
Though it seems but year and day
Since we sat at home by the hearthstone
Or rambled in childish play.
Though never again by the hearthstone
Shall our faces look young and gay,
Our hearts shall be young as ever,
If old Time has been turning us gray.
You're sixty-three years to-day, dear friend,
You're sixty-three years to-day,
'Tis just milestone in your path,
A post set by the way.
No costly gifts to you we bring,
But friendships little token,
And memories sweet this day meet,
And kind thoughts yet anspoken.
May many years yet Ger you roll,
You many blessings share,
And count the milestones as they pass.
Joyous, though mixed with care.
Be this our wish, when shadows tall
Are lengthening from the west,
Like shock of corn you'll gently fall,
And with Gods people rest

DO THE MEEK INHERIT THE
EARTHP

The eagle plucks the raven,
And the raven plucks the jay,
To whose yoracious craving
The cricket falls prey.
The big fish dimes at leisure
Upon the smaller fry,
And the minnow eats with pleasure
The poor unconscious fly.
The miser skins his neighbor,
The neighbor skins the poor,
And the poor man doomed to labor
Spurns the beggar from his door.
And thus the world is preying-
The strong upon the weak,
Despite the precious saying:
"The earth is for the meek"

A new organization of hay fever suf-

In addition there is board of direct

Meeting some eight or ten of the men,
bers of Prof McAfferty's class In Ger
man, yesterday, we were surprised to
hear each one speaking of the progress
made by the class in two lessons as
simply astonishing. They say that even
more than their most sanguine expecta-
tions have been realized. They express
wonder at the ease with which they
grasp word and their meanings. No
doubt this is due to the great illustra-
tive power and ability of Professor Nc
Afferty and his excellent system, the
Natural Method. At the conclusion of
each lesson, the Professor engages in
easy.conversation with the class, and
will not allow an English word to be
spoken. The class began with the
following members: Miss Magoflin, Drs.
Gerow and Perrin, Messrs. Cooper, Suth-
erland. Affair, Rollo, Kinney, Curry, and
! Weber.
