drain tiles for the refuse Of the system.
II they become clogged and SO dcadened
in their action, we must expect to be-
come the prey Of III health in some one
Of its countless forms. Let us not be
afraid of wet sponge and five minutes
brisk exercise with crash towel every
night or morning.
2. Devote eight hours of the twenty
four to sleep. If mother is robbed Of
sleep, by a wakeful baby, she mus. take
a nap some time during the day. Even
ten minutes of repose strengthens aud
reireshes, and does good "like a medi-
cine" Children should be allowed to
sleep until they awake of their own free
will.
3. Never go out to work in early
morning in any locality subject to danps,
fogs aud miasmas, with an empty stom-
ach. If there is not time to wait for
cup Of coffee, pour two-thirds Of cup
of boiling water on two teaspoonfuls Of
cream, or beaten egg, season it with
salt and pepper, and drink while hot b..

An hour before she spoke Of things
That Memory to the dying brings.
And kissed me all the while;

She seemed among her flowers and birds,
Until she fell asleep.

The crimson leaves fall off the bough,
And strew the gravel sweep.

And muse on all the happy talk

And, resting on the garden seat,
Her old Newfoundland at my feet,

Or heard the children In the lanes,
Following home the harvest wains,
And shouting in their glee.
But when the daylight dies away,
AND ships grow dusky In the bay,
These recolections cease
And in the stiffness of the night,
Bright thoughts that end in dreams as bright
Communicate their peace

And hear the breakers on the bar
The voices on the shore;
And then, with tears, | long to be
Across dim, unsounded sea,
With her forevermore.

Desirable Properly for Sale.

It is evident that although other
business marts may spring up in other
sections Of the ciry, the great volume
of trade ceDtering around the Second
street market will still increase. There
fore the splendid new residence and
store, No. 10 East Second street, built
and owned by Harry Sharpless, and
which Is now offered for sale by him,
offers a rare opportunity to secure a
good business location. The purchase
of a property like this in a part of the
city where trade Is already assured Is
much better than going into a new
community and toiling and Shaving
several years to build up trade. The
store room in this property is one OF the
largest in the city, and there are few
houses that make more pleasant and
desirable residence. This property Ia
for sale, and Mr.. Sharpless will dispose
of 1t on liberal terms.

Easter frequently occurs in March,
all depending when the moon fulls.
This year the March moon iulls two
days before the vernsl equinox, while
the April moon fulls on tue 18th at ten
O'Clock In the morning aud determines.
In accordance with the law, that Easter
shall fall on the flowing Sunday, the

other movable feasts and fasts Of the

the earliest date possible. Such will
