RURAL PICTURES.

A bit of summer day beside brook,
With line low dipping from shady nook;
With hum of bee and song of bird to cheer,
And Gods own heaven lying sweetly near.
On bright September day with goldcn-rod
And purple asters decking all the sod.
stroll through leafy wood, meath sky of blue,
With glints of sunshine smiling sweetly through.
mossy pillow for my tired head,
And soft green carpet for my comfort spread:
A richer home that that of proudest kings
With mother nature and her growing things.
A hunt for berries through the sparkling grass,
Brushing dew-jewels from flowers pass;
The ripe red berries paying all my pains,
With you dear gentle friend to share my gains.
The dropping nuts ON crisp October days.
Tempt me again in pleasant woodland ways:
And through the rustling leaves of colors rare,
chase the squirrel and his plumber share
An Indian summer, smiling through the mist.
Like babe in slumber, mother lip has kissed
hush DER all things, and holy calm
Like dying echoes ofa yesper psalm.
A blazing fire on cheerful farmhouse hearth,
And halls resounding with Thanksgiving mirth;
And ere the echoes die at Christmas-tide,
Comes Santa Claus with waving banners wide.
A merry jingle through the frosty air
Ger snowy hills, with mantle spotless fair;
Remove me far from city strife and noise,
And give me country cheer and rural joys.

Salt and Mustard Antidote.
From the Medical Journal.

TFVHF t7te HetttcUt JUUIHut'
If a person swallows any poison whatso-
ever, or has fallen into conyulsions from
having overloaded the stomach, an instan-
taneous and very effective remedy is a
heaping teaspoonful of common salt and as
much ground mustard, stirred rapidly in a
teacup of water It's scarcely down before
it begins to come up, bringing with it the
remaining contents of the stomach; and lest
there be any remnant of poison, however
small, let the white Of an egg and sweet oil
or butter or lard-seyeral spoonsfHl-be
swallowed Immediately after vomiting, be-
cause these very common articles nullify a
larger number of virulent poisons than any
medicines in the shops.

Great Salt Lake and the Dead Sea.

Great Salt Lake is shallow body of
wateE its average depth being little more
than three feet, while in many parts it is
much less. The water is transparent, but
excessively salt; it contains about twenty
two per cent. of common salt, slightly
mixed with other salts, and forming one
of the purest and most concentrated brines
in the world. Its specific gravity is LII.
The water is so buoyant that man may
float in it at full length upon his back,
having his head and neck, his legs to the
knees, and both arms to the elbow, entirely
out of water. If he assumes a sitting pos
ture, with his arms extended, his shoulders
will rise above the water. Swimming,
however, Is difficult, as the lower limbs
tend to rise above the surface, and the
brine is SO strong that to swallow even
very little of it will cause strangulation.
The waters of the Dead Sea, on the other
hand, are nearly black, and contain much
sulphur and bitumen, as well as salt It
is also very deep, varying from thirteen
feet near the south end of the lake to more.
than l 300 feet in the northern part Its
buoyancy is quite equal to that of the
Great Salt Lake, for travellers say that
man can float prone upon the surface for
hours without danger of sinking, and in a
sitting position is held breast-high above
the water.-lRter- Ocean,

Brinley won the first set by 6-5, the score in each standing at one time three all Knapp after hard pull won by the same score, 6-3.

THE DELAYS OF THE LAW. Remedies Adopted Fly The Lawyers
 SarAt00a

SARATOGA, Aug. 21.-The American Bar association was called to order this morning at 10 o'clock by President Stevenson, who announced that the regular business was in order. Judge Poland announced the follow. ing new members: Charles T. Russell, of Cambridge, and c. Ridgeley Goodwin, of Baltimore, who were unanimously elected The following officers were then recommend ed and elected: President, William Allen Butler, New York; secretary, Edward Otis Hinckley, Baltimore; treasurer, Francis Rawle, Philadelphia; executive committee, Luke P. Poland, chairman, Simeon E. Baldwin, c. c. Bonney. Vice presidents and members of local councils were also elected. D. H. Chamberlain, of the committee ap- pointed to consider means for the relief of the Supreme court of the United States, re- ported. The report was laid on the table. Mr. Chamberlain said that several States had inaugurated the public whipping post system of punishment for certain classes of crimi- nals and he moved that the matter be referred to the committee on jurisprudence and law reform to report at the next meeting. The discussion of MT.
 
 lis asked permission to strike out several un- important sentences, which was granted. MT. Russell hoped the association would adopt the report unanimously. If it became a law it would be one of the greatest meas ures ever adopted in the country. James Freedom, of Pennsylvania, objected to the re- port because it's adoption would commit the association to qualification. MT. Barker thought the matter should be postponed in order to give time to carefully read it. Judge Dillon said the matter was very im- portant one. He said it dealt with nothing but the courts, their delays and the causes MT. Field was in favor of codifcation pure and simple and all had got to come to it. He said we might as we'll try to turn the stream of Niagara as public opinion on that point. He spoke for some time urging the adoption of the report. A vote was taken on the conclusions of the re- port, it having been previously decided to drop the thirteenth section, and they were adopted. MT. Sterne, of New York, moved that the consideration be postponed until the next session An extended debate was had on the subject in which Messrs. Parker of Pennsylvania, Sherman of Illinois, Ayres of California, Lawton of Georgia, Earle of Washington, Willis and Van Buren of New York, Bates of Delaware and others partlclpateo The assoclatlon adjourned at o'clock to meet at the Grand Union dining room at 8 D. m on motion of MT.
