Arbutus.
BY FANNIE PORTER MULLIN.

Sprite of the woodland, come forth from thy
hiding
Thy fragrance betrays thee, know thou art
In some leafy covert in safety abiding,
While spring seems so tardy and winter is
drear.
Close to the breast ofthe brown earth thou cngest,
Near to her heart whence the life currents flow
To the roots of the MOSES, the blades of the
grasses,
The veins and the tints of all blossoms that
blow.
Pray tell me thy secret and why thou unitest
The pallor of winter with springs rosy glow?
And petals of white to pink petals thou plightest,
A fairy commingling of bushes and snow?
Didst thou spring from the tears of some beauti-
full Dryad
Bewailing her bondage in fetters of green?
Or vert thou the loves of the Fauns and the Satyrs
Who roamed through the wild wood with mys-
tical mien?
Then hold up thy chalice and pledge in its nectar,
O loveliest blossom the season shall bring,
To life that is feetest and love that is sweetest
Of all the fair gifts that have birth with tho
The Baltimore County union. [volume] (Towsontown, Md.) 1865-1909, 1884-05-24
Early Rising.
A TIMELY WARNING.

"Early to bed and early to rise" is
not always the safe and sure road to
health, wealth, or wisdom, as Poor
Richard taught and as our ancestors so
presistently inculcated. We have come
to learn that early rising as an auxiliary
to health depends upon variety of con-
ditionsas the constitution of the individ-
ual, the state of his health, the climate,
the season, the nature of his work, etc.
In midwinter in this latitude 7 o'clock
may fairly be called early, while in mid
summer it is almost late. The Phila-
delphia Record illustrated this subject
by the following true CASE:
"W. B. was weakly boy, tall and
slender, yet with no defect-under
judicious training he would have devel-
oped strength. But his parents were
imbued with the idea that early rising,
plain almost scant fare. and severe re-
gimen generally, were the best means
for insuring health. So he spent two or
three years upon farm, brushed off
the morning dew with his feet, cad
the yowes frae the knowes" when he
ought to have been in bed, and in va
rious ways tried to initiate certain six
foot-two and broad shouldered uncles
who never were sick in their lives
and six foot -four consin, whose massive T..
muscles were not accompanied by con-
stitutional strength. The result of the
morning wet feet was an almost perpet-
ual cough, with variations of sore throat
and catarrh. He left the farm and lived
awhile in towns by the sea shore and in
city suburb. Atthese places, bathing
and long walks before breakfast were
panaceas for getting strong. If one sea
bath day did not improve his feelings,
he took a second; and if three miles
walk before breakfast did not give him
an APPETITE, he walked five miles next
morning. 1t speaks well for his con-
stitution that he did not die. He had
a narrow escape. Broken down with
rheumatism, bronchitis and general de-
bility, he dL lCng III listened to advice to
take good care of himself and consider
himself an invalid for life. In pursuit
of this he was forced to leave his coun-
try for more suitable cline, to live in
the city, to feed on nourishing food
and a tonic when his health was be-
low the average. The consequence is
that, though far from what he would
have been had his early life been differ
ent, he has for several years been almost
free from sickness. The bronchial and
rheumatic tendencies have become weak
ened, and he is able to outwork or out
walk many who are younger and strong
er. The six-foot-four cousin, who lived
on farm and keeps up farm habits, died
long ago, and the two healthy uncles
though still alive, have as a result of
needless exposure, become masses of
muscular rheumatism. With this expe-
rience, w. B. has hearty contempt for
the exaggerations of such writers as DIR.
Felix Oswald, who would have US all
seek cold to cure cold, and to wear
ourselves out to gain strength. He
! feels certain that there is for every man
a golden mean Of life, which each must
find out for himself and adhere to when
found, knowing that to exact more is
to commit slow suicide, while to indulge
more is equally killing"

s9-A low tub should be found in
every stable in the country. Its uses
may be various, but one of the most
convenient places in which it can be
used is in washing off horses feet and
cleaning their fetlocks, heels, etc. 1t
is to be regretted that these attentions
are not looked after as closely as they
might be by farmers generally. With
tub convenient, which need cost but
a little, and which may be made by saw
ing off the end of barrel, the work
connected with keeping the feet of
your horses clean amounts to but very
little, and the benefits that result from
such care will repay for the trouble that
it takes to exercise it. The dirt or
manure which collects in the shoe and
around the frog of the foot cannot
help being injurious and should never
be allowed to remain any length of
time

AduIferatiOn of Mustard.

DIR. Cyrus Edison has submittedto the
New York Board of Health a report OF
his inquiry into the adulteration OF
mustard. The doctor says he found
that certain manufacturers were color
ing an adulterated mustard with naPh-
thol yellow, a dangeous explosive COM
pound and violent irritant poison. Sam
pie of the mustards, besides being adul-
terated with naphthol yellow, contained
IS to 60 per cent. Of flour and 6 to 20
per cent. of terra albe. He says that
''the peculiar danger of this adultera.
ton is the fact that mustard is relied
on in cases of poisoning as an emetic,
and that the death of the patient may
follow in the event of its failure to act. !"
Should the scoundrels who manufacture
this stuff repeat their offence steps will
be taken for their punishment.
