beverages from the state and from
the nation.
Can women and children do any
thing to help in SO glorious a work?
They can, for the love of God and
native land, work and sing and pray
for the amendment. They can spread
temperance literature; they can them
selves study the subject so as to be
intelligent teachers; they can use
whatever influence they have of time,
talent and money in carrying on the
general work, and in the "Harvest
Home" all shall rejoice together.
How can the whole nation be saw
ed from the traffic?
When three-quarters of the states,
having driven the traffic from their
own borders, OF desiring to do SO,
shall vote to amend the Constitution
of the United States, it can then be
made to prohibit the importation,
manufacture and sale of all these liq-
uors in any place over which the flag
floats.
Is the national Constitution amend
ed in the same way as the state Con-
situations are?
Very nearly in the same way. Con-
gress submits the question to the
Legislatures of the states, not to all
the people of the states. When two
thirds of these adopt then it is done.
Has any effort been made in this
direction?
The National Temperance Society
and the Woman's National Christian
Temperance Union have for years
been petitioning for such an amend
ment. In December, 1876, the Hon
Henry w. Blair, of New Hampshire
then congressman, introduced into
the house of representatives join
resolution proposing an amendmen
on this subject-to the Constitu
ton of the United States. He ha:
since introduced the same amend
ment into the senate, being now ;
member of the body.
Has congress now any control owe
the traffic?
1t has exclusive control in the Dis
trict of Columbia and the territories
1t might Danish the entire traffic from
these parts of the country. 1t ais,
imposes a revenue tax upon the bus
mess everywhere. This is wrong
and ought to be abolished. It i
blood-money, and it is written, ISL
is reproach to any people; an
blessed is that people whose God
, the Lord, who have respect unto HI
commandments, and keep His law
because it is not vain thing fc

It is the Best Plow made in
the United States,
FOR THE FOLLOWING REASONS:

FOR THE FOLLOWING REASONS:
1. 1t is the simplest pillow made for the amount and
kind of work it will do.
2. 1t has no parts that will get out of order, any
than common side-hill pillow.
8. 1t has more pieces than a common pillow.
f. The plow can be landed when in use as well as
when not in use.
5. Do not have to leave the handles at all to change
the amount that it will run to land.
6. Do not have to use the wrench or any tool to |
SET or change the width of furow.
7. Can be changed instantly. to cut any width of
furrow.
s. Can be set instantly to any width of furrow
9. Can lie run to the land more or less running
either way while in motion. IAN farmers know that
it is great point to be able to cut the width of
urrow running both ways without regard to the team
crowding off in the furrow and the Hubbell Plow
will do it every time; and this cannot be done with
any other plow)
10. 1t works as we'll on level land side-hl.
IL. 1t has a movable cutter attached in such
manner that by merely drawing the plow back it win
free itself from sticks and stones. 1t also keeps the
pillow from getting out of the ground by getting
between the pillow nose and cutter. In such the
cutter will fly up and free itself and not throw the
plow out of the ground.
IL. 1t is the easiest draft pillow made.
H. 1t leaves the soil in the very best of shape to
harrow in. namely. puverized and light.
IA. 1t holds easier than any other side-hill plow.
10. Points are chilled the whole length of the cut
| when worn, by any farmer.
II. All our plows are ground smooth and are ready
to work when they leave the shop.
More than one hundred of these plows have been
sent from the shop within the last year aud have
never heard a word Of complaint about one of them,
but have lots of the best testimonials in their favor

ABOUT PAINTING.

1t is surprising how everybody
rushes at fainting person, and
strives to raise him up, and especial
ly to keep his head erect. There
must be an instructive apprehension
that if a person seized with a faint
ing or other fit fall into the recum-
bent position, death is more imminent.
/ must have driven mile to-day
while a lady fainting was held up
right. / found her pulseless, white,
and apparently dying, and believe
that if / had delayed ten minutes
longer she would really have died. /
laid her head down on a lower
level than her body, and immediate
ly color returned to her lips and
cheeks, and she became conscious.
To the excited group of friends [
said: Always remember this fact,
namely: fainting is caused by want
Of blood in the brain the heart ceas-
es to act with sufficient force to send
the usual amount of blood to the
brain, and hence the person loses
consciousness because the function
of the brain ceases. Restore the
blood to the brain, and instantly the
person RECEIVERS. Now, though the
blood is propelled to all parts of the
body by the action of the heart, yet
it is still under the influence of the
laws of gravitation. In the erect po-
sition the blood ascends to the heao
against gravitation, and the supply
to the braiu is diminished, as com
pared with the recumbent position
the hearts pulsation being equal. If
then, you place person sitting who's
! heart has nearly ceased to beat, hi
r brain will fail to receive blood, Will
, if you lay him down, with the heat
J, lower than the heart, blood will rul
! into the brain by the mere force o
gravity, and in fainting, in sufficien
e quantity to restore consciousness
Indeed, nature teaches us how t
? manage the fainting persons, for the
= always fall, and frequently are g
$ once restored by the recumbent pc
e. sition into which they are thrown.
