Ministering to a Mind Diseased.

A shrewd German a century ago re-
commended to every man overcome with
sorrow to force himself each day to study
for fixed periods language or art, what
ever was most pleasing and agreeable to
him. The work for the brain on to-
tally different side from its grief is slim
ulating, strengthening A political ex-
lie, also German, being sentenced to a
long, solitary confinement, kept madness
at bay by decorating the walls of his cell
and by making long lists and sketches
of people and places he had known. He
recommends a man in grief to pay in
slant attention to the little pursuits or
occupations which usually give him
pleasure, and to obstinately devote him
self to them until his brain has had time
to heal IF we are denied great Joys
let us earnestly seek TO fill their place
by small ones, +" he advises. The epicure,
after the first crushing blow of agony,
unconsciously relishes a discussion of
his next meal; an orderly woman bend
ing over the coffin of her child, has a
feeble comfort in its neat, pure gar
ments. People of methodical habits
should be given occupation which will
call forth their genius for organization
and system. In short, we should re-
member that the brain is a material or

in danger of disease from the excessive
strain upon it of one emotion, a counter

For the Stomach's Ache.

Joe Howard, veteran New York jour
nalist, gives the following advice to per-
sons whose aching stomachs warn them
of the approach of cholera or something
like it. "First and foremost, AVOID
brandy, whisky and gin. They allay the
pain temporarily, but they excite, exa3-
asperate and infame the stomach, and
worse remains behind. Avoid all 'chol-
era medicines, which are all made of
laudanum, peppermint, red pepper and
camphor. They, too, allay the pain, but
the latter effect is excessively unpleas-
ant. They are delusion and snare.
In this case, as in nearly everything in
life, the simplest and easiest is the best.
Take a spoonful of the essence of ginger
in a wineglass &C water, the hotter the
better, and make it palatable with a lit
tie sugar. 1t acts like magic, and after
few trials the pain and all unpleasant
symptoms disappear, and you are hunki-
dori Aside, however, from the disput-
ed point of what is the best remedy, is
the fact that so many careful, prudent
people just now are suffering from this
weakening and demoralizing trouble,
and the further noticeable fact that so
many men die suddenly from Its effects"
