TERROR.
This, the youngest Of the departments Of
the United States government should have
in the march Of progress the bsst design Of
seal, as it was only authorized by act Of
March 3, 1849, the act which created the in
terror department Prior to that time
the work Of this department wa; distributed
among four other departments Of the gov
ernment. Patents, copyrights, the census
and other public documents were under the
secretary of state The secretary Of the
treasury looked after the public lands, mines
and mining and Judicial accounts. Indian
affairs were in charge OF the var department,
and the business Of pensions was divided be-
tween the secretary of war and the secretary
Of the navy. All these varied departments
Of the public business, except copyrights, to-
gether with the bureau Of education, the
Pacific railways, the public surveys, the ter
ritories and the charge Of certain charitable
institutions in the District OF Columbia come
now under the head Of the interior depart
ment. The eagles wings In the seal have
not sufficient spread to cover SO many duties,
but considering the purpose for which it was
originally intended it is quite spread enough.

A MAN WHO SUFFERED MENTAL AND
PHYSICAL AGONY EIGHT YEARS PRO-
CLAIMS HIS HAPPINESS.
Mental agony is dreadful, but when that
and physical ailment combine, it is simply
terrible. Such was the condition of Geo.
w. Frampton, of Huntingdon, w. Va,
for eight years. He was sufferer of ne
croses-that is, the leg bone at the ankle
was inhamed and mortified, which caused
running sores. He says: "Pieces Of bone
the size of silver three cent piece came
out of the sores or my leg. The discharge
from the sores Wa almost continual, and
was unable to walk. For eight years
have been doctoring. had been under
the treatment of a physician at Newport
KY, for year; another at Burlington, o.,
attended me for three years, and doctor
here at Huntingdon worked with me tor
a long time. None of them did me any
good, and they all finally said my case
was hopeless. A few months ago com
meuced trying PERUNA, and now 1 am
well. I can walk as good as anybody,
and have perfect use of my limbs"
Mr.. ALI. Lusk, Wooster, Ohio, writes:
"DR. HARTMAN, Columbus, o. / have

1 have thoroughly tried your MANALIN,
and it has done me more good ten-fold

home to insure her good luck. 1t is
ill-tortune to the one who picks up
these crumbs. If the bride loses
her slipper on her way from church
she will lose all her trou bles and
the one who picks it up will gain
riches.
In every country it is an unhappy
omen for the wedding to be rut off
when once the day has been fixed,
and in England 1t is believed great
misfortune will ensue if bride
groom stand, if only for a moment,
at the junction OF cross roads on
his wedding morn. In England,
also, it is thought a sign of bad
luck If the bride fails to shed tears
on her Wedding day, or if she turns
back to take last look at herself in
her wedding toilet.
Among the English lasses il is
bad luck for bride to look back or
go back when once she has started
for the church, or to marry dressed
in green, or to let the ceremony 90
on while there is an open grave in
the church yard. When the brides
maids undress the bride they must
throw away all the pins to make
sure of good luck to themselves as
well as for her. If single pin be
left in the brides raiment, woe unto
her. And if a bridesmaid should
keep one of them she will not be
married before WhItsuntide or the
Easter following. Therefore brides
maids in England are not given to
preserving the pins from the bridal
costumes. If the bridal party ven
ture off the land they must go up
stream, and the bride, to make GER
tain of good luck, must on the hap
py day wear Something old and
something new, something gold and
something blue" If she sees a
strange cat that day she will take
it as an omen that she is 10 be very
happy; and if on the morning of
her wedding day she steps from her
bed on something higher than the
floor and then on something higher
still, she will rise in the world from
the time of her marriage. To make
sure of this, the maiden has a chair
and a table at her bedside and steps
from one to the other on rising from
her slum bers on the wedding morn.
On leaving her home, and on start
ing from the church to return, she
is very careful to step out with her
right foot first, and is careful not to
address her husband after they are
wed without first calling him by his
full name. The break of the wed
ding ring is a sign that the wearer
will soon be a widow.

Keep Up With the Children.

The following observations occur
in an excellent article in the Con
gregationalist:
Do not say you haven't the time.
Spend less time in society, in hav-
ing a needless variety on your ia
BILE, in thinking about and making
your clothes, or in sweeping and
scrubbing; but do keep up with
your children.
II, when they commence to attend
school, you begin to look over their
lessons with them every day and
continue the habit, you will be sur
prised to find how little time it
takes. and how easily you go from
one subject to another, even those
which you never studied before.
The benefit is two-fold. Always
seeking to make the lesson attrac-
tive to your child, your mind is
KEPT active while he thoroughly I'M
derstands and enjoys what other
wise would be dreary task.
IT you find your child has a spe-
cial taste for botany, geology, or
any other study, encourage him in
it by showing that you enjoy it too.
Be patient when he rushes in with
his arms full of flowers or stones.
Show him how to arrange them and
insist upon his taking care of them
himself. If he is unwilling to do
this his interest is not very deep.
Go with him, as often as you can,
into the fields and woods and help
him in collecting specimens. If he
has a genius for mechanics not only
make an effort to provide him with
tools and workroom, but
take an interest in every piece of
work he attempts. 1t is safe to
say that every child has a talent
for something and he should be en-
couraged to make the most of his
talent.
The secret of success In bringing |
up boys is to make them love their
home so that they will be happier
there than anywhere else. If they
feel that father, mother like to hear
about everything they do,even down
20 trading a jack knife, that they
ire ready to listen to every new
plan and experience, then they are
lot very likely to want to spend
heir evenings out, nor to have any
rieDds or adventures which must
De kept secret. If they know that
ather and mother keep track of
heir lessons and are anxious to
lave them understand every one,
hey will enjoy their studies and
earn three times as much as they
otherwise would.
