A Case OF Charity.

A lady living in the northern part Oh
this city had her attention directed to a
case OF charity the other day which
made her heart-strings vibrate. There
was sick woman and two ragged and
hungry children in the house, while the
husband was out tramping the streets
in search of any sort of work which
would earn them bread. The charita-
bic lady made trip among her neigh
bors and collected food and clothing.
and after spending an hour or two W tn
the sick lady she left dollar in cash to
buy medicines. When she had done
this she went home with a glad heart.
but later in the day, as she was obliged
to pass the house again, she saw the
discouraged husband on the steps. He
had Just returned from q long tramp,
and as usual had found no work. The
lady was about to accost him when he
called to boy on the opposite side and
asked: Tr 81
Say, sonny, how much to clean the
snow off my walk?"
"Oh, about thirty cents"
"Tu give you quarter.
well, l guess I'll do it"
The man entered the house and took
twenty-five cents of the very money left
with his wife to pay for the work, and
the lady, walked on without any re-
marks. The remarks were made after
she got home.-Detro1 Free Press

Fruit vs.. Candy.

If children are allowed to run to the
confect oner's with every half-dime
they obtain, it is better to require them
to buy fruit and nuts rather than the
highly-colored candies child would
choose. White Ecandies are not alto
gether unob ectionable, as they are
often Tin common with others weighted
with terra alba, substance about as
digestible as soft stone or land plaster.
beside being made in great part of i'm
pure glucose. Still they are better than
the colored, for even the commonest
color, red, is often obtained by using
red lead, bisulphuret of mercury, or BIZ
sulphuret of arsenic; green is some
times colored with verdigris or arsenite
OF copper; yellow with iOd de of lead or
yellow ochre: blue with Prussian blue
or litmus, which is often adulterated
with arsenic and a preparation of msr-
curry: while the browns and puppies are
also unsafe. 1t may be argued that
candies contain too little of any Of these
substances to be injurious; but it should
DE borne in mind that children (who
are the greatest candy-eaters) are easily
affected by even small quantities of
medicine, and would therefore be by
poison IS we'll; besides. these minerals
have the property of accommodating in
the system until grave results are often
made manifest.
Side by side with these attractive but
Unsafe preparations, many confectioners
lay oranges, bananas, eoeoaHuts, pine
apples and . variety of nuts, foreign
and domestic, which are healthful and
much more acceptable to all but per-
verted tastes than the jars of gaily-col-
ored candies. All who give thought to
the wonderful and complex machinery
Of the body, and the intricacies of d.
geeeion and circulation. will see how
important it is that nature be not over
taxed to rid the system Of useless or
poisonous matter. If the little folks
want sweets. make molasses candy of
reliable brands of strip: or buy maple
sugar, which is cheaper than CANDY,
and II unaduitersted is perfectly health
full; and give them plenty of honey ai
tie tsble. But when they run to the
canoy SHOP, teach them to buy nuts end

The Egg Machine.

The hen is literally an egg machine,
her chief purpose being the prod ction
of eggs. Like any other Kind of ma
chine, she must have the raw material
with which to manufacture her
capacity, and should not be expected to
perform service beyond her ability, but
should, however, be kept in constant
running order, IS long rs she is needed
by her owner. The material upon
which she should work must vary &C
cording to the requirements of the
manufactured article, and as her in
stinct teaches her how to select, all that
is Necessary is to place within her reach
that which she desires, and everything
will be Well.
To produce an egg the hen must have
a certain Kind of food for the yelk, or
fat portion. known as carbonaceous.
and for the white she needs food rich
in nitrogen, from which she makes al
bumen. For the shell she needs lime,
while many other substances enter in
to the composition which it is I'M
necessary TO detail, the omission of
any of them being detrimental to good
work on her part. Thus, while we may
feed a hen literally, apparently, by
emitting to allow that which is needed
to complete the process, she may re-
main idle for the want of single SUBJ
stance. though fully supplied with
everything else. She often gives indi-
cat ons of her wants, for the ''soft-
shelled eggs" occasionally noticed, adj
monish the breeder that lime in some
shape is needed. The change of color
in the comb and wattles, the dropping
of the wings and the anxious, nervous
appearance are all signs that something
is radically wrong. for when the pro-
ductive organs are not healthy the
vigor of the fowl is likewise affected by
such arrangement. .
How important is it. then, to en-
deavor to keep d fferent kinds of raw
material within reach of the hen in
order to realize from her all that she
can do as an egg machine. She is spe-
cially adapted for that purpose, and her
health is better when she is in good
LAYING condition than at any other time.
Every machine sooner or later wears
out, and in order to keep them in work
ing order they are oiled and carefully
watched, but the hen attends to her own
details if supplied with material. rs she
is living factory for egg production.
If she wears out she supplies her place
with her descendants. and is ever ready
to act well her part if her owner will do
ikewise.-Fdrn, Field ai.d Fireside.

they bravely encountered and resisted all
those things and laid the foundations of q
