Nervous Prostration and the Need for Rest
and Relaxation.
Wages Of skilled Laboren in Foreign
Countries

A REMEDY FOR NERVOUS PRoSTRATION.
There is an unusual amount of illness
this autumn Of the type known as
''nervous prOstration. 1t is prevalent
among hard-worked people. who have
been deprived Of the needed summer
rest and relaxation, men who carry
their business home with them every
night, and women who are worn out by
domestic cares and worries. 1t is very
strange how much we are told about
food. clothing, ventilation. drainage,
exercise and other things which have
IN influence On our health, and how
very seldom we think Of rest. And
yet, as remedial and restorative
measure, it is of the first importance in
many cases. Most physicians know
what to do and when 10 do il. but
good deal Of common sense is required
TO discover how not to do something;
and when 10 let the patient alone. A
combination OF dragging and fretting
Kills more than half the sick people in
the world; mans enemies can not do
him near so much damage rs his friends.
The world is possessed with the notion
that when man is taken i'll, Il terrible
ado must be kept up, an alienation of
nursing and fussing, while pretcrnatur-
ally wise and whispering doctors.
sympathizing friends, fearful relatives,
and chattering nurses add their cOntri-
buttons TO the wrong side, and all be-
cause somebody is i'll and needs chiefly

only pills or pOtation can exercise, kill

patient will let him, that two-thirds of
all the maladies of all the people in the
world would get well in few hours or
days, ii left TO themselves, with no
other appliances than such as instinct
would suggest and common sense en-
plOy. But patients often estimate the
doctors skill by the wonderful wise

course, that We are not speaking OF
extreme cases. but of the treatment of
the ills which flesh is heir tO-the

if they can take it, is rest. II that be

The horticultural editor of the Conn
try Gentleman has given much attcn-
ton to the determination of the curcu-
Ito on plum trees. He has found the
following method the most eliicacious:
First of all, bore hole an inch deep
in the upper part of the stem of each
tree, If small. or in each main limb ii
large, and insert into these holes iron
plugs long enough to project say two
inches. These plugs are readily made
by cutting up round iron rods. These
are to receive the blows from heavy
hammer in Earring down the insects,
and are more effectual than the old and
obsolete padded mallet and enable the
operator TO 90 over an orchard in half
the time, and to make cleaner work.
Next, procure piece of white muslin
or sheeting, about six feet square or
more; stiffen two opposite sides with
rods, and keep these rods apart with
cross-rod at the middle, which also
serves as handle. The operator takes
this stretched muslin in his left hand,
or rather on his left arm; and holding
it Tin standing position) under one
side of the tree, strikes the iron plug
on that side. The insects drop on the
sheet and are promptly killed with the
thumb and finger of his right hand.
Being brittle, they crumble readily
with single rolling pinch. The other
side of the tree is treated in the same
manner, and all in much less time than
the method is told. If the cross-rod
which is used at the handle to the
screen or sheet is set SO that a slight
curve or loop is maie in the muslin.
the insects all roll into this hollow and
are more quickly reached. The work
must be commenced as soon as the
plums are as large as peas. and contin-
lied ut least once day in the cool of
morning, without intermission as long
as any insects are found, usually two
or three weeks. In an orchard oil some
forty trees, we usually find about two
hundred on the first two or three days.
the number gradually decreasing to
half n dozen or less in about three
weeks. when the Earring is discontin-
ued. About two thousand. more or
less, are caught in each season. The
time consumed is about equal to five or
six cents a tree. Many bushels are
borne on these trees every year. where
before not single peek was raised.

NEARSIGHTEDNESS.

The points which should be insisted
upon for the prevention of myopia, or
for its arrest when it has commenced.
are the following: /. Work should
always be done in a good light. and so
far as may be possible by daylight:
hence late hours, reading in bed. by
twilight, and by freight should be dis
countenanced. 2. The type OF the
books in common use should be
good. If two editions are pr nted,
one with large and the other with
small type. the former should he
chosen. A few chapters may be de-
tached and bound separately. so rs to
make light book. easily held in the
hand. 3. In order that the head may
be kept up and the child prevented from
boring over his books, i raised desk
and form well adapted to his height
work should be moderate; none should
be- done before breakfast School hours
should not be longer than from nine till
twelve and from two I'LL four, with
perhaps an hour i'm the evening for pre-
paration. s. Active out doc. gaines
lawn tennis. fiycs. football, and cricket
should be encouraged. 6. The diet
should be abundant and varied. Z. The
bowels should he kept in order. and
constipation avoided. 8. Appropriate
glasses should he provided for viewing
distant objects. and especially for fol-
lowing instruction on the blackboard,
which many children wholly lose; but
if the selection of glasses is not placed
in the hands of an ophthalmic surgeon,
IL will be well to remember that in
moderate myopia no glasses are re-
blest glasses which give good vision
for distance should be used. --Henry
