WHO Is THY FRIEND?
Is PUBLISHED EVERY FRIDAY BY
a '" u a T. TT 70


Who is thy friend? The man that shares thy
pleasures
In banquet hall or beauty's witching bowers;
He that will dance with thee to folly's measures,
And make no reckoning for the squandered
hours
To whom the revel and the game is all
These are the friends that help men to their fall.
WHO'S thy friend The man that shares thy pride,
Thine hour of glory, or thy day of gain
Who stands in every triumph by thy side
And never finds that triumph false or vain,
But shapes his doctrine as thy humor goes2
These are the friends misfortune turns to foes.
Who is thy friend? The man that for his winning
To power or place hath need of thine or thee,
Who will not fear thy risk, or blame thy shining,
So it but speeds his fortunes growing tree;
Whose praise is large, whose promise larger yet ?
These are the friends that fail us and forget.
Who is thy friend? The man Of truth and trust,
In gladness near, in sorrow nearer still;
To thy faults generous, to thy merits just,
Thy help to every good from every i'll,
Whose love for the worlds hate might make
amends?
Alas for it this life hath few such friends.
Who is thy friend The best, the least regarded
In faith unfaling, and in love unchanged
Through all the changeful years. though ill re-
warded-
Give him thy heart, 80 long and far estranged,
And from the broken reeds of earth ascend,
To see in heaven thine everlasting Friend.

Cure for Nervousness

A physician says that he has known many
men, and women, too, who from various
causes had become so much affected by ner-
vousness that when they stretched out their
hands they shook like aspen leaves on a
windy day, and by the moderate use of the
blanched footstalks of celery as salad they
became strong and steady as other people,
He has known Others SO nervous that the
least annoyance puts them in state of agi-
tation, and they were in constant perplexity
moderate use of blanched celery as salad
at meal time; others to be cured fpalpita-
ton of the heart.

A DOUBLE TRAGEDY.
A NeSV1y-Wedded Virginia Couple
Wtlrdered-A Missing SuitOr.

News of fTightful tragedy has been re
ceiyed from Wise county, Virginia. In
the neighborhood Of Bonds Mills, the
Hentons, Mitchells, and Reynoldses were
the leading families, and Martha
Reynolds was the belle of the whole region.
She had many suitors, the most favored Of
whom were Charles Henton and BUD
Mitchell. Not certain which she loved the
most, she engaged herself to both. Henton
became aware Of the fact, and persuaded the
girl to elope with him. They left the neighboP
hood, were quietly married, and returned
to the home of the brides parents
That night the wedding was celebrated with
a dance. "Budn Mitchell was present. and,
under the influence of liquor, became noisy
and insulting He berated the bride for her
fickleness, and finally slapped her Her hus-
band hearing Of it, ran across the room, and
gave Mitchell beating, and was only pre-
vented from killing him by his friends
Mitchell left, vowing vengeance.
The following night Henton and his wife
attended a prayer meeting at rural church,
going home by short cut Mitchell was not
seen by any one. As Henton and his wife
failed to put in an appearance, search was
made the next day, and their bodies, dis
figured almost beyond recognition, were dis
covered in a lonely spot in the path they
were following. The woman's head was
nearly severed from her body. Henton had
been shot in the breast and afterward the
assassin had pounded his head to jelly with
a stone. Mitchell was missing.

BY this is meant the introduction 81
blood from the veins Of a person, or am
animal, into the veins Of another person
who may have suffered a dangerous loss
Of blood
There have been great changes
opinion as to the value Of this treatme
AncientIy the blood was regarded As
life of the man, or as containing the liIl
in some mysterious sense, instead ot
simply furnishing nutriment to the vari-
GUS tissues Hence, long before the fact
Of the blood's circulation was known,
physicians tried to supply new life to the
body by introducing into it fresh, healthy
blood from another man or animal
AS late as the seventeenth century
learned Psychologists discussed the ques-
ton whether the introduction of sleeps
blood into the dog would not give wool
and horns to the latter; or whether
lambs blood would not render an irasci-
BE person mild; Or whether the blood
of a young person would not restore
youth to the aged. In the century thai
followed many experiments in transfu-
sion were made on animals with these
ends in view.
Between thirty and forty years ago
TRANSMISSION Of blood from one person tu
another was frequently made, not only
in cases of loss of blood, but for many
kinds Of diseases. The theory was,
that the "bad blood of the patient
should be let out before the introduction
Of tn e 'sgood blood" Grave and often
fatalresults brought the practice into dis
credit.
In 1859, TRANSMISSION having resulted
quite successfully in certain class of
cases, it again became very popular, and
until about ten years ago was looked on
as almost a panacea in q large variety ,
ailments. To-day, however, this eTl
thusiasm has utterly died out
1t is found that blood from an animal
transfused into human being, on
from one animal into different
kind, undergoes injurious chemical
changes; and that when blood is in-
troduced from one human being into
another, there is great danger Of ita
clotting in the veins. It has also baenl
learned that when TRANSMISSION has saved
life, it has been simply from starting the
stagnating current, and not from any re-
viving action of the new blood.
When loss Of blood causes stoppaga
Of circulation, though the heart con-
tinues to beat for awhile 1t fails 10 draw
up.and circulate the blood, because the
loss has so reduced the pressure. II al
now found that solution Of conanvrs
salt starts the blood current equally
well, and with entire safety.
Blood, however, introduced directI
from the veins Of one person into thd
veins OF another, j. also safe operation
