WINTER BY THE SEA.
ATLANTIC CITY.

[From v Y. Home Joaraa!. January 2S'a, 1851
Five or six years age Atlantic City was
unknown, except as a summer resort.
For few months in Summer thou sands
thronged its beach and diSpor;ei in its
surf, but with the coming of autumn they
vanished. leayin. the town TO sleep in
quiet through the long months of winter.
Wise heads, however, saw that there were
a mildness of climate, an equability of
temperature and recuperatiye properties
in tie sea air, which would some dag at.
tract as many visitors in winter as in sum-
msr. An snterprjsing hotel proprietor
kept his house open for one winter as an
experiment. People came, few at first,
| bat all experienced decided benefit, and
tina number Increased from year to year,
until its reputation as great winter san
itarium is now firmly established. Last
season six o. eight hotels were fills ! with
winter guests, and this winter others have

Many conditions combine to make the
place great winter health resort. Its

ness of climate unsurpassed on the North
| Atlantic. BehiuC the town is vast
waste of sand, which absorbs the atmos-
pheric moisture, and aids largely in dry
ing and purifying the air. There is nc
| body Of fresh water within fifty miles;
the soft sea breezes, tempered by the
oceans warm currents, bring to land the
| health Of the sea, while the land winds
are robbed of their dampness in then
course over the sands. These influence
tone down the severity of winter to q ne
gree that is remarkable when the Their
momstric observations Of Atlantic City
are compared with those of points of the
same latitude further inland. The med
zeal fraternity bear Overpowering testi
mony to the efficacy of the climate in pull
monary and other kindred diseases, ant
their restored patients are willing wit
nesses to tho same fact.
Apart from these considerations The
city itself presents number of desirabI,
features. 1t is well-governed, hand
somey built, and attractive city Of some
eight thousand permanent residents. Al

There are miles of handsome avenues

they add a charm of cheerfulness to their
bright surroundings. The houses are
built in full view of the sea, and glass
enclosed porticos afford both a prospect
and promenade for the invalid too weak
to face the eager air.
Ones enjoyment of out of-door exer-
else is perfect. The bright, bracins air,
charged with the freshness of the sea, is
constant temptation to walks, sails, or
drives. For the pede strian a handsome
board walk along the whole ocean front
Affords line field for exercise. A SPLEEN
did beach drive Of ten miles, and a SUI
prising variety of vehicles of all descrip-
tons, r,iier fine facilities for driving,
while the inlet is famous as well for its
sailing as for its fishing. There is no
need OF idieness, if one cares TO be active.
No epidemic disease has ever prsraiied
at Atlantic City. The sanitary measures
are in the hands of board of health. the
members Of which fully appreciate the
responsibilities of their position. Pure
drinking water is introduced from tho
interior, ard system of sewerage is now
being provided, which promises to prove
most potent factor in preserving the
health oi the growing town. The topOg-
raphy Of the town does not admit of nat
aral drainage, and formerly the refuse
and vase we're carted off by contract.
This plan proved unsatisfactory. and il
was Determined 10 employ some more ef-
iocaiye methods. \ commission was ap-
pointed to examine various systems Of
drainage, and devise the best possible
plan from such as had worked effectively
elsewhere. The committee studied the
question with care, and chose as the best
what is known as the West System"
By this method the waste and sewerage
are forced through pipes to central res
ervoir, and thence pumped out to point
beyond tue corporate limits, where, by
the aid OF machinery, the solid substance
is converted into phosphates, and the
liquid, purified by filtration, is allowed
to flow into the bay. This is most eff
tective method, and one that has been
used with great Success in this country
and in Europe. The work Of laying the
pipes is being pushed forward with vigor
by New York firm, and the early COM
pletion OF the work is confidently expect
ed.
In the matter of accessibility no resort
is more favored than Atlantic City.
From Philadelphia it is ride of one and
half, and from New York four and a
half hours by the Pennsylvania Railroad.
To the residents Of the East and North
it offers the double inducemsnt of easy
access, and Il complete change Of climate.
In days journey they may pass from
the rigors OF Northern winter into the
gsniaity Of early spring.
Although the season is not considered
opened until February, the vanguard of
the coming army is already at hand, and
the hotel. are receiving daily accesSions
to their number OF guests. Every indi-
cation points to a most successful season.

a low bow; and l actually detected a
smile lurking under the golden NOUS

Here Aunt Arabella," who had
subsidized into a very upright chair, and
who had been shaking her head and

Destroy that Sign.

One may feel that he's getting old, but he
naturally dislikes that anything about hi,
appearance should advise others OF the fact
Yet nothing does this so effectually as thin
and falling hair. No woman wants to
marry man, and business firms hesitate
to employ a man, who shows this fatal
sign. Parker's Hair Balsam is worth to
you, in this regard, more than its weight in
diamonds. Us, it, and have plentiful and
glossy hair. Many have had every race OF
grayness removed and bald spots covered
by using single bottle.

MEDITATION.

Only a thimble of silver,
Daiutiiy small and bright,
In my lonely meditation
Presents itssli to my sight;
And think Of weeping mother,
Who sent it to Ias one day,
That might rem ,n Der her darling
Who had flown with the angels away.
Only thimbe Of silver,
Laid silently then to rest,
While the fair, white hands Of its owner
Lie quietly over her still breast.
She faded in youths sunny morning,
Ere the cares of the world she had known
Now I trust her bright smiles are ad
orning
The beautiful heavenly throne.
Only thimble OF silver,
Daintily small and bright,
Has led me into the dreaming
Of the dream of which | write;
For its cleaning surface reminds me
Ola gay, laughing, sunny face,
That il hid from sight forever,
In its fnal resting place. F. ID.

AYERS
Cherry Pectoral,

No other complaints are so insidious in their
attack as those affecting the throat and lungs:
none so trifed with by the majority of suffer-
ers. The ordinary cough or cold, resulting
perhaps from triiing or unconscious eX-
posure, is often but the beginning of a fatal
sickness. AYERS CHERRY PECToRAL has
well proven its efficacy in a forty years fight
with throat and lung diseases. and should be
taken i'll all cases without delay.
