Cincinnati Enquirer.
Hygiene and food-these two
are the materia mcdica and the
therapeutics. Let us be brief. In
tho diarrhea ofinfants and children
do not forget that glyccrlne, ex-
tract of matt and pepsIn cure when
other things must fail. Seven
cases of summer complaint became
chronic on our hands and had beat
US from every quarter. Worenew-
ed the fight by ordering extract OF
malt two parts, pure glycerlne one
part, q tablespoonful every four
hours. The change was something
wonderful. Digestion was ro-es-
tablished. Malt helps the glyco-
genie function of the liver glycer-
inc is force like the combustion of
OIL and alcohol. In a case of chron-
ic diarrhoea in q lady who has been
bed fast for year-how emaciat-
cd tongue red and beefy, skin like
the waxy hue of dlabetcs-we or
derod twenty grains of pepsin to
be added to a pint of new milk,
set away in warm place. In an
hour or two coagulation COM
mences. Beat up with an egg-beat-
er, then set away in a warm place
for four hours, so that tho pepsin
may convert the aibumenoids into
peptones. One ounce of this ad-
ded to two ounces of other milk
and drank; teaspoonful three
times q day, and plenty of barley
water, oatmeal water, and the pap
made from the lump, obtained
from boiling four hours three or
four teaspoonfuls of flour snugly
tied up in bundle. Crate the
lump and boil it into a pap with
skim milk. When cool enough to
be swallowed add teaspoonful of
malt to a half cup OF the pap. This
without any medicine
cured this desperate case. You
may treat cases of chronic syphilis
in the say way. Cod oil comes in
well in many of these cases of
chronic disease, along with malt
and peptized milk. We mako a
pancreatic emulsion from the fresh
gland with water, glycerine and
bl-carbonato of soda. Typhoid |
and pneumonia patients have been
treated in the Same way with great
SuccpSs

self will be in danger OF being for
gotten by the rest OF tho world.
The worst of faults is a false
heart. and the least comelY CONVEX
ing that can be imagined is false
hood.
The most delicate, the most sent
bio of all pleasures consists in pro-
noting the pleasures of other.
One of the most fatal tempta-
tons he to weak, is a slight devia-
ton from the truth for the sake Of
apparent good.
1t is the work of a philosopher
to be every day subdulng his pas
sions, and laying aside his preiu-
Gices.
Those who do the will of God
heartily, will do 1t speedily; while
we delay, time is lost and heart
hardened.
Few mercies call for more thank
fuIlness than friend safe in heaven
1t is not every one that over
cometh.
Nothing is so wholesome. moth
ing does so much for peoples look,
as little interchange OF the small
COINS of Denevolence.
On arriving at church go in at
once, and do not hang around the
door.
Prepare for divine service on
your knees, not at your looking
glass.
An honest Chinaman Is an I'M
usual work of God.
A Virginia curiosity is a wood

The divinity of charity consists
in relieving mans needs before
they are forced upon US.
Contemptis like the hot iron that
brands criminals; Its imprint is al
most always indeliable.
In matters of conscience first
thoughts are best; in matters ofpru-
dence last thoughts are best.
A strong man is one whose pas.

reasons control his passions.
A man is great just In proper

ton of life IN which he IS placed.
There is no strength IN exaggera-
ton: even too truth Is weakened
by being expressed too strongly.
As q rule lawyers are a brave
class of men,. "It's conscience that

If you wish success in life, make |
perseverance, your bosom friend,
experience your wise counselor,
canton your elder brother, and
hope your guardian.

TIE FARNER ANn HIS DEW.

There is 4 statisticiau about the
Palmer house who desires to i'm
press everybody with economic
facts. Said he: ado you see that
man over there? Well, he's farmer
down near EIgin. There he goes
with Il friend they're going to get
4 drink. Now, let me see. That
man will sweat two mortal hours
next spring to pillow enough ground
To raise one bushcl. That bushel
of corn he will sell for thirty cents.
lie is going IN now TO spend the
thirty cents for two drinks. There
fore, the farmer and the corn have
parted. Now, let me tell you
what becomes of the corn. 4 BUSH
cI of corn makes seventeen quarts
of whiSky-tour and quarter gal
Ions. The distillcry gets its first
prolific cents gallon. There
you arc; So tor that bushcl of corn.
Now tine government comes IN, 90c
a gallon-S3.S5 cents added to tho
50 makes $3.50. That brings the
product OF the bushel of corn down
to the jobber and wholesaler, and,
finally, by several stages, to the re-
taller. By the time it reaches the
latter tho bushcl of corn, or tho
product of four and a quarter gal
Ions, has been reduced one-half,
which means eight and q half gal
Ions. There are sixty drinks to
the gallon-that is the average
eight and half gallons means 270
drinks at Is cents-there we have
S46.35 rs the consumers price for
4 bushel of corn which the farmer
raises and scll5 for 30 cents. Who

and hearty welcome.
The annals of the late war con-

more brilliant than that of the re-
capture of Galveston, in 1868, to
which no aganey contributed more
largely than the courage, daring
and prowcss of Green's Texas Bri-
gadc.
After the lapse of almost quar-
ter OF a Century from that extra
ordinary cvent-which, IN the
fullncss of time, has brought
peace. determination and

batants and the rising generation
as well as the Galveston of "Auld
Lang Syuc," will give hearty well

their utmost, ladies and gentle
