The Curative Power of Nature.

The old writers recognized, in blind sort
Of way, that there was force In the human
organism which tended toward recovery
from disease This they called "the cura-
tive power of nature" One OF the glorious
triumphs of modern medicine Is more per-
fect appreciation Of this great fact. ITO let
well enough alone,n and to not weaken or
pervent the action of any organ or structure
unless ii Is clear that something is to be
gained by so doing, are the results of this
fact being duly appreciated. The "kll-or-
cure doctrine Is utterly abandoned by all
who have any real knowledge of modern
science.
In order to secure tho full operation Of
stho curative powers Of nature" the sick
dog goes away by himself and obtains rest
and quiet. All the intelligent animals do
the same. Rest for the debilitated body, or
of the portion Of It injured by overuse or
disease, Is one Of the most efficient methods
Of obtaining a restoration 10 health. The
signs TINT rest Is needed may be visible only
TO those who have studied the action Of the
organs in healthy. Rest Of one part may
bring injury 10 health organs. Exercise Of
the natural powers IN health b generally the
only method Of securing their future healthy
action.-Cor. Globe Democrat

Married Women Nno L-.nage business.
There is large number of wealthy married
women who manage their own business free
from conjugal restraint. Their wealth is
chiefly inherited, and they wisely keep it in
their power. recently met a bright-faced
woman i'm the house of well known business
man, and he mentioned privately that she had
called TO inquire concerning real estate pur-
chase. | learned that this woman was
married and had q grown-up family, but she
allowed neither her husband nor her children
TO interfere with her business arrangements.
/ am also informed that this class of women
are generally better managers of property
than the average of husbands.
l well remember a statement made by
capitalist some years ago. He mentioned that
he attended a sale of Broadway property,
hoping to buy house. His limit was $500
which he considered its full value, and he said
he "would have got it, but there was a foolish
woman who run it up to $4,000, and would
never get back her money" That very prop
erty is now worth s+O0,0O0 Another bust
ness man made the remark: "Women are
very tenacious of real estate. know family
which had large inheritance, but what the
boys got has been wasted, and all that is left
is in the hands of two sisters. New York

Caps and Aprons for House servants.

One of the greatest difficulties have met
with as a housekeeper is to persuade house
servants 10 wear white caps and aprons. They
win wear the apron without any persuasion,
but very few of them are willing TO wear o
cap. I always stipulate when engaging n
house servant that she shall wear a cap
Even when il is made a condition of hire the
girls occasionally refuse to wear them. /
have known them TO wear caps In the house
and to take them of stealthily il they slip
into the alley for moment ! can't under
stand the dislike for them unless IL is on the
ground that caps and aprons are badge Of
servitude. I know that servants who are
not required to wear them ridicule and jeer
at those who are, and have found my girls
in tears over them many time. Neverthe-
less, seeing that they are only an evidence OF
nsatness, that they give tone and tidiness to
n servant, and that they are useful In pro-
tecting the hair from dust, insist on having
them worn -Matroh In Globe-Dcmocrat.

Often the Fault of Ambitious Parents.

Young girls are not always alone TO blame
for over-exertion in social pleasures. Some
times their parents, who are ambitions to see
them make brilliant figures in the gay whirl,
push them on 10 excuses, or, at least, do not re-
strained the nrlors of pleasure pursuits. The
consequence is that young girls frequently
exhaust their freshness in q single season.
Often they lose the color, the vivacity and
enthusiasm of youth, and become faded and
dispirited before they are out OF their teens.
Worse still, they in6ict permanent injury
upon health The exhaustions of excitement
and fatigue often cause sleeplessness, and the
ready dose of choral or bromide is relied
upon to quiet the nerves. Alternate sedatives
and excitements wear out the nerves rapidly,
and prepare the victim for neuralgia, head
aches, dyspepsia, and many other maladies of
that kind Very often, when young girl is
smitten with illness of this sort, the family
speaks Of it as visitation OF providence, "
when they ought to speak Of it as parental
mismanagement- Baltimore American.

There are hosts of men and women W no,
to coin phrase, are only half alive. That
is to say, they have seldom if ever any ap-
petite, are nervous, weak, fidgety and
troubled by numberless smf.l pains and
aches. In the presence OF vigorous, exuber-
ant vitality they seem mere pigmies. Such
persons are usually fond of frequently dos
ing themselves, swal .o'Sing in the course of
the year enough drugs to stock any
apothecary's shop of average dimensions.
This, of course, defeats instead OF further
ing the end in view, viz: the recovery of
health and vigor. Were they to seek it from
an unfaiIing source of vitality, Hostetter S

their case Then vigor would return to
their deblitaied frames, the glow OF health

certain gait would grow firm and elastic,

give relish for the daily food, were it ever
so coarse, and refreshing sleep would crown
the tasks of the day.
