scribed Schroeder's Iron Tonic and Blood
Purifier freely in his practice, and found it
unsurpassed in anemia, general debility, IN
digestion, want of appetite, lack of energy,
retention and non-retention of urine.
Female weakness of all kinds, impure

all cases requiring an Iron Tonic, unhesita-
tingly recommend it as the best.

THE oBJEcTs or MY LOVE.

BY THE LATE REV. BR. S. S. RoszEIL.
love the green earth. with its fruits and flowers,
It's buds and its blossoms its sunshine and showers
The mist and the mountain, the meadow and moor,
The lowIy and the lofty, the proud, the poor
love the bright sun, as he comes from afar,
And rides up the sky in his rose-colored ear;
How radiant his smiles as he rises from rest,
How sweet are his beams as he sinks in the west.
love the pale nason, the fair empress Of night,
As she softly difTuses her silvery light;
And I fancy the stars as they twinkle on high
Are gold pieces coined in the mint of the sky.
love to look up at the beautiful blue.
And see the rich clouds gliding gracefully through
Like the chariots of angels they're grand to behold
Some FURNISHED with silver and others with gold
love the deep sea. as stand on the shore,
And hear the rich music that swells in its roar;
1t looks like the glass in which seraphims trace
Their features Of beauty and movements Of grace.
love every thing that the Lord ever made,
The beast in the forest the bird in the shade;
The one with his growl makes the wilderness ring,
While the other delights in the bower to sing.
love blooming youth, and seldom upbraid
The frolicksome boy or the sweet blushing maid;
He looks like flower just blooming in pride,
And she like another that blooms at its side.
But of all the fair creatures that ever I've seen.
That play in the parlor or glide DER the green,
By far the most lovely are they who, in truth,
Give their hearts unto God in the days of their youth

The Scientific American gives several
illustrations of the fact that in almost every
line of business there are men who excel
because Cicero's declaration that IA poet is
born, not made" applies to others than
poets. A man whose business in a certain
tool-shop was to temper springs, worked
$4,000 consecutively, and Of the whole
number only six failed to pass the test; but
during his temporary illness more than
half the springs handled by his assistant,
who had been under instruction a year,
failed. In large mandatory of sword
blades one man does all the tempering,
being called in from other employment at
intervals, because, although he has always
been willing to instruct others, he has never
had a pupil who could equal him in the
work There is large scythe manufac-
tory in New England town making
1900 dozen scythes year, and the pres
ident of the company has for years hard
ened and tempered every scythe that leaves
the works, because no other man in the
works can do it so we'll.

INCREASE OF DIvoRCE.-Up to the
beginning of the present century divorces
were but few, and about the middle of this
period they began to increase alarmingly.
In the New England States, during the
year 1S49, there were only "a divorces;
the next year there were 129. In 1854
the number reached 299, and increased
until in 1864 we find 436 divorces granted.
During the past Is years there has been
one divorce to every 10 marriages In the
State of Massachusetts; one to every Ii IN
Vermont; one to nine in Rhode Island and
one to less than eight in Connecticut. In
1880 there were SO divorces granted in
the State of Maine Population has in
creased 80 per cent; divorce has increased
$50 per cent. Ohio, with one divorce to
every seven marriages, stands worst upon
the list, while Chicago grants one to every

Work every hour, paid or unpaid See
only that you work, and you cannot escape
your reward Whether your work be
coarse or fine, planting corn or writing
epics, if only it be honest work, done to
your own appreciation, it shall earn reward
to the senses as well as to the thought.
No matter how often defeated, you are born
to victory The reward to thing well done

The timber RATS of the Rhine are
noticeable characteristic of that river.
They consist of lumber felled in the noun
tain forests and brought down to the Rhine
by the Neckar, Main, Moselle and other
rivers. The single logs are first hurled
down from the heights into the mountain
torrent; then a few are tied together, and
as they float down the streamlet grow like
a SNOWFALL, till in the Rhine itself they are
made into huge floating fabrics, which are
carefully navigated to Dorhech and sold;
A raft has often from eight to ten small
houses on it, and from 400 to 500 work
men, rowers and pilots. The vast pile is
steered by means of immense oars, and is
so constructed as to twist like an huge
snake in the narrow channels. The sale
of single raft at the end of the voyage
often realizes about S150,000.

Judge has met his match. The Gov
ernor, in direct opposition to the man
damus, orders the Auditor and the
Treasurer 10 receive no coupons except
under the provisions Of the Riddleber-

victor. Judges Hughes has it in his
power 20 order the arrest Of Governor
Cameron, which he will probably do.
In this event the Governor will be re-
leased under the habeas corpus, and the
matter carried to the Court Of Appeals
for decision.
Were these coupons to be received
for taxes they would absorb the entire
revenue Of the State, leaving nothing
whatever with which 10 carry on the
