DON'T YOU.

1 love to hear the wind at night sing low
among trees,
I love to see certain flag a-fying in the
breeze,
love all women, high or low, for certain
woman's sake,
And love a friend who never will another
friend forsake.
love to hear woman's laugh, there's music
in the sound;
l love to see, to know, to feel, that they're
young or old, around;
1 love the rivers, meadows, forests, birds, and
lanes-ah me!
More than all of these. love the throbbing
sobbing sea.
love man who's willing to forget and to for
give
love one who knows how to live, and still lei
others live;
love a song, good cigar, pint of wine-and
this:
A sweet. delicious, cozy, little. comfortable
kiss!
love an honest heart and true, a fair and oper
brow;
l love to do my little all the best way know
how;
love to think 1 lived before-two thousand
years ago,
And with charming Cleopatra tripped tht
light fantastic toe.

GUS parents: "Why, this is just as funny
as it could be. Don't you remember this

led in and your folks came to make fuss
just as you are doing" Smart girl, for it

BUSINESS IN UToPIA.-Jacob Schneider
and Heinarich Baumgarten, two honest,
Woodworking Germans, settled on the clear
fork of the Sandies in Gonzales County.
about the year 194S. They picked up some
little knowledge of the English language
from their scattered neighbors, and in 1850
were somewhat innoculated with the cus-
toms of the people.
Schneider sold horse to Baumgarten on
six months credit, and got neiyhbor to
draw up note for the money. Baumgar-
ten signed the note and then said to
Schneider. "Vat I must do nit desc note?n
Schneider said: "You geeps der note, den

Baumgarten said: ''Dot is goot.'
At the end of six months Baumgarten

SICK HEADACHE..-Two teaspoonfuls of
finely powered charcoal, drank in half a
tumbler of water, will give immediate re-
lief to the sick headache when caused, as in
most cases 1t is, by too much acid on the
stomach.
Hot WATER FOR COLDs-Dr. George
R. Shepherd, says in respect to the use of
hot water as a remedial agent in the treat
ment of inflammation of the mucous mem
branes: II have used hot water as ga gle
for the past six or eight years. In acute
pharynigitis and tonsilitis and in coryza or
cold in the head if properly used in the
commencement of the attack it constitutes
one of our most effective remedies, being
frequently promptly curative To be of
service it should be used in considerable Ga

hot as the throat will tolerate. have seen
many of acute diseases thus aborted, and
can commend the method with great conf
dence"
THE CULTIVATION OF THE BODY.-It is
everybody's duty to cultivate the mind;
this is truism, | think, which provokes
no dissent. 1t is everybody's duty to keep
the body healthy; this is correlative tru-
ism which, if it provoke no dissent, does
not command an universal acceptance; at
least, if accepted, it is not acted upon, and
the highest truth is valueless until it is re-
duced to practice. Even among the better
classes the neglect of the body is manifest,
and not less serious than manifest elbow
can that be?'' exclaims fair lady; ''do I
not devote couple of hours every day to
personal adornment?" Madam the adorn-
ment of the person and the health of the
body are two different things, wide as the
poles asunder You and your maid are
engaged, as you say, two-I think it will
be more correct to put it at three-hours
daily in the details of the toilet; in dress
ing and undressing; in endeavoring to SUBJ
NIT yourself to the iron requirements of
fashion. But what has this to do with
health? Do you take regular and moderate
exercise? Do you keep reasonable hours?
Do you strike a just balance between req E.
alton and work? Do you live in whole
some atmosphere? Do you retire early and
rise early? Can you answer these ques
tons in the affirmative? Or is it not true
that you spend long hours in the vitiated
atmosphere of the ball-room that you re-
tire to bed at very late hour exhausted
with the toll of pleasure; that you do not
rise until near mid day; that your time is
wholly devoted to what you are pleased to
call amusement, and that the fresh, free air
of heaven you breathe only for the briel
period of your carriage drive? Madam,
you are not taking care of your health; on
the contrary you are sowing the seeds Of
disease, and it is to be feared will gather
the harvest in the shape of premature
death or prolonged debility.
