LYTToN's BRIDGE
Where i Touches the Shores and the

Where it Touches the Shores and the
 Great Columns i'm MidstreaM.
 .What beautiful bridge between old age and childhood is religion. How ntutively the child be- gins with prayer and worship on entering life and how ntuitively, quitting life, the old man turns back to prayer and worship, putting himself again side by side with the infant" remarks Sir E. Bulwer Lytton, in his "Strange Story.' afa
 Yes, but between it's distant abutments the bridge. of life has mary high and awful arches through which the wild waters dash and roar in wrath and desolaion. Prayer and worship alone do not sus- tain these Natures solid rocks must lie unshaken beneath, and human art and skill mustrear, and solid ify the structure overhead. Gods will is best exem pied in the laws he has made for the creatures whom he has placed under their control Neither the childs trustful "Our Father' nor the old mans 'Forget me not in the midst of mine nirmtes," will alter this by the weight of single grain.
 Science and art frst-then faith and prayer-is the order of Heaven itself. Divinity heals through its agents, and those agents the discoveries of not the vague announcements of prophets seers Is life a burden to you? Does time drag? Is your power to cope with lifes problem and duties weaken ed? You are not well. Your blood is sluggish and tainted, perhaps or some important organ is torpid oYerworked. This fact may have taken the form of dyspepsia rheumatism. gout, malaria, pains in the stomach, chronic headache, or any of dozen other fresh air nvigorates those who have been shut up in damp, fetid cells. It is powerful, pure, delicious scientific, safe-the keystone of the central arch the bridge of life.

From the Boston Watchman.l THE CHARACTER OF WASHINGTON.

We are informed by The Nation, the weekly edition of the New York Evening Post, that the standard of chastity now demanded by the religious press of the country of our public men would have prevented Washington from taking any important part in the founding of our government. We regard this as most gratuitous islander upon the character and memory of Washington.
 We remember the reverence with which President Sparks, of Harvard, spoke to us of Washington soon after the completion of his Life of the Father of his Country. He said to us II found nothing, abso- lutely nothing, in all his private and pub lie correspondence that might not, without detriment to his good name, be published to the world. Under all the circumstances, I regard his public and private example and virtues the most remarkable ln his tory, for their uniform and symmetrical excellence"
 Some thirty years since, while at Wash ington for brief period, we spent 8 day with MT. Custis at his home, Arlington. y No others were present, and much of the time was passed in listening to personal "reminiscences of Washington, from the lips of one whose early life was passed ln the family circle of the general at Mt. Yer non. At one point in the interview, MT. Custis was speaking, as he expressed It, ''of the atmosphere that always was felt in | the personal presence of General Wash | ington," and continued : "Th1s influence, or whatever you may call it, was recog- nized by all that came in contact with him, as l have seen and can recall ln the Inter views with the most illustrious of his assc- ciates, Franklin, Adams, Jefferson, Hamll- ton and others. All the members of his family circle were impressed with it; and under the most familiar conditions of oul home life, never lost the consciousness, personally, of that influence"
 The stress laid upon the matter by MT. Custis prompted the inquiry by us, "What, in your opinion, was this influence, the impression of which was SO powerfully felt by all who met the general ?''
 The manner and expression of MT. Gus tis will never be forgotten by us, in his re- ply; so pertinent in the present issue.
 "Young man, the emotions felt in the presence of Washington were like those experienced in addressing the Deity, and for similar reasons. The purity of his daily life was such as that could but re- gard him with awe, as superior being."
 This answer recalled the address on the title-page of a volume presented by Lord Erskine to Washington, which read, "You are the only man for whom have ever felt an awful reverence"
 We believe no private or public imputa tion upon the character of Washington will change the universally accepted yer dict, embodied in the eulogy of Lorc Brougham
 ''In proportion as individuals or society make progress in virtue or patriotism, ii that proportion will they advance toward thepedestal of Washington" o.wJ.

THEY D1DN'r.-An ignorant looking man

THEY D1DN'T.-An ignorant looking man with good deal of money was showing himself and his bundle about our streets iii a manner calculated to attract social sharks the other day, when couple of young gamblers got hold of him, and ask ed him if he didn't feel like having nice, quiet little game. He replied: "Wall, l dunno. l reckon I mought jes as well pull yer leg for little more skads, as not. " They winked at each other and led him to the lair, when they all sat down at the ta- ble and one of the boys dealt the cards He had packed the deck in such a way that he knew if the countryman should cut,about in the middle, his partner would get four aces, but the countryman did not cut at all, and the deal, gave him four kings and a queen, while four hines ere in the hands of the dealer, and the partner of the dealer held three queens and jack.
 "How much air four sevens worth ?'' uueried the countryman.
 Both the gamblers said it was good hand, and he pulled out big roll of mon ey and began to bet literally. They final ly got the wager up as high as they could go with the funds at hands, and they call ed him, when he laid down his hand and raked in all the money in sight,

SKINNED MILK FOR HENS. The editor of the Poultry World finds that neighbor whom he had furnished with milk had beaten him in eggs, inquired into the cause, and gives the following explana- tion. To this we may add any kind of sour milk or buttermilk, thickened with bran is very excellent food for all kinds of poultry ......a.'I.
 'They commenced laying in October, and have been at it ever since, to the as- tonishment, if not the envy, of the fortu- nate owner, who has been selling eggs for the past four months for forty-fve cents per dozen, and upwards. Not one particle of meat or scraps is given, and but the veriest trife of animal food in the shape of new boiled potatoes about once week. An abundance of grain is allowed of va rious sorts, ground and unground, but never cooked, and plenty of unburnt oys- ter shells pounded are at all times accessi- ble. They have plentiful supply of skinned milk every day, so that they can help themselves to what they want, no other drink being provided.
 ''Some farmers think they cannot afford to give milk to hens, but must save it for the pigs. But if skinned milk is worth one and one-haf cents to feed to swine, as some claim, it. is worth three cents for poultry, if by its use winter eggs can be obtained and sold at high prices"

OPENING THE FoNTA1Ns.-In numberless bulbs beneath the skin is secreted the liquid substance which gives the hair it's texture, color and gloss. When this secretion stops
 the hair begins at once to become dry, lustre- less, brittle and gray, Is that the condition of our hair? If so, apply Parker's Hair Bal sam at once. It will restore the color, glos- and life by renewing the action of nature. The Balsam is not all oil, not a dye, but an elegant toilet article, highly appreciated be- cause of it's cleanliness.
