ON GROWING STRONG.

Purify the Blood with Water and Air
Don't Stimulate the Circulation with
Liquor.
There are thousands of women all
over the world who. suffer very much
from what they sometimes call general
debility. They say they feel dull and
heavy. indisposed to action, easily
tired, and sometimes they imagine
that they need some stimulant. and
perhaps try ale or cider or something
of the kind and fancy they feel better.
This method of relief is great mis-
take. The good effects produced are
only temporary, and the evil which re-
suits may be lasting, not. only through
the life of the patient, but for genera
tions to come. Indeed, the bad ef-
fects are even less likely to be seen in
the one who resorts to this remedy
than in her sons or grandchildren.
Such are the laws Of heredity.
Let us examine the causes of debil-
ity. As all action and feeling
is dependent upon the state of the
brain and nervous system. whatever
weakens the brain and nerves must
produce this feeling of depres-
sion of spirits. dullness, drowsiness
and indisposition to exertion. The
strength of the nervous system depends
upon the supply of arterialized blood.
If the blood is impure, either from
breathing impure air, as, for example,
in crowded cars. churches or unven.
tilated rooms, we experience q sensa-
ton of dullness and drowsiness. There
is not enough oxygen inhaled to vivify
the little blood discs. Care. anxiety Of
trouble produce similar result, fol
the reason that when under the in
fiuence of depressing emotions, we d.
not breathe in so much oxygen. The
tendency is to sigh, or throw out the
breath rather than to inhale it in deep
full breaths as We ought. A deep
full respiration of pure air is one o
the best ways of promoting health ant
cheerfulness.
But the nerves also lose their vigol
and power of receiving and retaining
impressions, whenever the blood i
rendered impure by the presence o
etfete atoms, i;worn-out particles o.
discs or an accumulation of bile
Moreover, the accumulations of pois
onous matter in the blood must dis
tur5 and retard or quicken the circu
lation, and cause the heart to beat ir
regularly. !, 49,,

and control. l confess that there were
times when it seemed hard because /
was not permitted to 60 and come just
as some boys were doing whom knew.
But now, when l think Of the after-re-
suits in the different cases, feel that l
can not be too grateful for the home
influences which had, and to which /
yielded in youth. OF the boys whom
knew, those who lived nd attained
and honorably filled positions of trust
were withoutexception those who were
known as the ''hOme boys" the ''moth-
er boys" the "babies;" 'and all because
they did not think it manlyto swear,
and smoke or chew tobacco, and tight,
and play truant from school, and be q
nuisance in general They were by no
means goody-goody boys, they were
not angels; they loved, and had. their
fun; they had games, but they were
loving and kind to their parents, and
truthful and honest and well-bchaved
everywhere; and although thus nick
named. many of them were strong
enough to withstand the temptations
OF the camp and 10 endure severe hard
ships, and brave enough to fall on the
field of battle with the face to the foe.
Others of them have been able to keep
themselves pure, and to make for
themselves good record in the midst
of the tests and struggles of life. In
the meantime, as l have had oppor-
tunity to learn, the sad news comes to
me OF the moral wreck of one after
another Of those who preferred street
education. or who hated and rebelled
against every thing like a wholesome
restraint, and who considered them
selves manly.-Rev. w. ~ Totheroh

A Playful Elephant.

In India an elephant of small size is
by no means an unusual household pet.
Not long ago an English gentleman
living in the Punjaub wrote to an En-
glish journal most interesting ac-
count of baby elephant which he had
introduced into the family as play
mate for his children. Young Bo5bo
was about four months old, and about
four feet high. His education was a
matter which demanded no small
amount of care and perseverance on the
part of his master.
To begin with, Bobbo had no idea
of the wickedness of taking what does
not belong to one. He was fond of cake
and sweetmeats, and no amount of
covering up and concealment seemed
sufficient to prevent that flexible trunk
from poking into all kinds of holes and
corners, and appropriating just what
he found to his liking. Fruit he con-
sidered great luxury, and it was no
unusual circumstance to find him max
ing off with bunch of bananas that
would have supplied the family for a
week.
When Bobbo was year old, he was
put to the task of'drawing small cart.
Usually he behaved well; but occa-
sionally, when something displeased
him, he would land cart, contents and
driver in ditch, and then look on
placidly while his unfortunate freight
was rescued from the pickle into which
he had got them. At the same time
he was always gentle and affectionatc,
and when his owner was obliged to re-
turn to his native country, the parting
between Bobbo and the little folk was
a very sad one. -Harpsr's Young PEG.

A Family Wrecked by Drink.

James Welsh, formerly member Of
the New Jersey Senate, and his wife
Sarah, were lately arrested in Phila-
delphia on charge Of drunkenness
and neglecting their children, and
were sent to the House of Correction
for six months. Their sons, Thomas,
fifteen years old, and Joseph, thirteen,
were taken in charge by relatives,
while two younger ones, eleven and
five years old respectively, were given
to the care of the Society to Protect
Children from Cruelty. Welsh for
merly lived in Monmouth County, N.
j., and was at one time worth consid-
cradle property. He came to that city
eleven years ago, and entered dow n
ward course until his little fortune was
swept away-ruined by rum. His wife
also took to drink, and they gradually
sank in the social scale until they had
disposed of nearly all their furniture
for rum. The earnings of the Older
boys were also spent to procure liquor,
and the children were compelled to beg
for the necessities of life. The case
| finally came to the notice of the of.
ficers of the Children's Society. and
they had the unnatural parents ar
rested and committed. The family was
found in a wretched condition in s
room almost bare of furniture and
reeking with filth and dirt. -Philadel.

Boys and Girls May, and Ought to, Grow
Straight, and Not Crooked.
You are boys now, but you will soon
be men. Then you will have your own
way to make in the world. Do you
mean to be idle and fretful, and de-
ceive people, and give them bad
opinion of your Or do you intend to
90 to work, and act bravely and nobly,
and do your duty, and leave q name
behind you when you die which the
world will love and respect? Take
care-now is the time! Did you ever
notice large tree that grew crooked,
and was an ugly eyesore on that ac-
count? Perhaps it stood on the lawn.
right in front Of the porch, and your
father would have liked very much in
deed to straighten it. 1t was impossi.
BILE to do so. A hundred horses could
not have dragged it erect. And yet
think of the time when the large tree
was small sapling; child might
have Strengthened it then, and it would
have grown properly, and every one
would have admired it. BY this l mean
that boys and girls ought to grow
straight, not crooked. You are young
now, as the tree was once; begin in
time, and you will be as straight as an
arrow when you are man. If you
wait, it will be too late. The way to
make men erect and noble is to take
them when they are boys and show them
that there is nothing in this world so
noble as doing their duty. Once more
say, remember that though you are
boys now, you will be men soon.
You may do good or evil. If you
are false and worthless. you and every
body else will have a hard time of it.
You may be soldiers, judges. states

and more than all, God will watch you,
and hold you to strict account. Il
you are brave, and true, and unselfish,

Yet, though perform my part,
And look very sweet and bland,

Or even II china pug
Than TO be dressed up like this,
With pretty fan in my hand,
That strangers may pause and admire,

I'm very expensive toy,
And require the best of care
On account of my inside works;
For, il any trouble is there,

But, alas! mechanical toys
Are not very much In demand.

Value of Vaccination.

Prof. Koch, Of Berlin, published re-
Gently some statistics concerning the
mortality from smallpox. He showed
that in the years between 1900 and 1870
from 20 to 60 out of every 100000 in
habitants of Prussia died annually of
smallpox, but that since the introduce
ton of compulsory vaccination and re-
vaccination, in 1874, the mortality in
that country has decreased to from .O7
to 81 out OF every 100000 inhabitants.
As the mortality from smallpox has
remained unchanged in Austria, En-
gland and France. its decrease in Prus-
STA can be ascribed only to the effects
of compulsory vaccination.-M Y. Post

11OtlI. LEGISLATURE.

The Legislature he gan its fourth
week on Monday evening. The S,n-
a-e received the house resolution pc i
tlouing Congress not allow the b. Z Q.
railroad bridge Staten Island Sound
and laid them over; also the local OPP
ton bill. Senator Nichols introduced
a bill imposing 500 fine for taking
oysters from any planting ground in
Delaware Bay and compelling captains
of vessels to pr0cuyc license from the
| collector of oyster fund before they
can fl h for oysters. Several bills VI
minor Importance were introduced in
the Assembly.
On Tuesday the brilga resolution
brought forth hot words in the Senate
and was thoroughly ventilated, and
shown to be mere folly and buNecmbo
by Senator Fish. Senator Nichols
said if the 3. Is O. were allowed to
cross the State, the State would re-
ceiye $4,000 additional taxes each
year while it had been shown before
that 80 per cent. Of the freight would
pass under the proposed bridge. Sena-
tor Vanderbilt, of Mercer, made a very
able effort on the States rights on the
question ana Senator Gardner defend
ed the resolution with ridicule. II pas
spd by rs to 4, Mr.. Miller of this cOun-
ty being absent. In the Assembly a
bill passed to have all tangible person.
al property assessed where it is used.
If this becomes Il law as it should, it
will hinder people from being
taxed twice as some our citizens have
been.
On Wednesday the local option bill
came up for discussion and WAS amend
ed in some the sections; namely, that
the election shall not be held within
60 days of another election, extending
from > to ) years, section 9th, which
makes tia penal offepse to sell any al
ticle having the appearance of intoXi-
eating liquors, or to have ON the prem

ed, also that nothing shall prevent the
manufacture of liquor in any county
and the sale of such llquOr outside Of
the county in which it was mtde. \

and the bill made a special order for
next monday evening.
