WHAT AM no?

The symptoms Of Biliousness are
unhapily but too well known. They
differ in some individuals to some
extent. A Bilious man is seldom a
breakfast eater. Too frequently.
alas, he has excellent appetite for
liquids but none for solids Of a
morning. His tongue will hardly
bear inspection at any time; if it is
white and furred, it is rough at all
events.
The digestive system is wholly
out or order and Diarrhea or Con-
stipation may be a symptom or the
two may alternate. There are often
lIemorrhoids or even loss of blood.
There may be giddiness and often
headache and acidity or fatulence
and tenderness in the pit of the
stomach. To correct all Of this il
not effect a cure try Greens august
Houer. it costs but a tritie and thous-
ands attest its efficacy.

GENERAL HARRISON AND WINE.

A Pennsylvania lady tells that
when Gen. Harrison was running
for Presidency, he stopped at the
old Washington Ho use, in Chester
for dinner. After dinner was serv-
ed it was noticed that the General
pledged his bread in water, and one
of the gentlemen from New York in
offering another, said General will
you favor me by drinking a glass of
wine?" The General refused in a
very gentlemanly manner. Again
he was urged to join in a glass Of
wine. This was too much. He
ros from the table his tall form
erect, and in the most dignifieG
manner replied :"Gentlemen l have
refused twice to partake of the wine
cup. That should have been suf-
ficient. Though you press the cup
to my lips not a drop shall pass the
portals. / made n resolve when |
started in life, to avoid strong drink

How many q tired oyer-burdened
mother has sent her husband to his
store or Office, and children to school,
soursd for the day by her irritable
words; aud then alone with her
God, has wept bitter tears Of anguish
over that which she could not seem
to help. Whereas, if she felt, deep
down into her conscience, that
health was her first duty, she would
study to know the causes of her ner-
vousness and irritability, and aban-
don everything likely to develop
those conditions. To be sure, her
vanity might have to suffer and the
children's garments, MS well as her
own, might have to do with a few
hundred yards less stitching. That
strong cup OF tea OF coffee would
have to be laid aside, and some self
denial would be required in regard
to diet; but in the end she would
feel more than repaid. / think you
will agree with me that ifit is
women's duty to measure up to the
high standard, which the world ac-
cords to her as the center Of home
influences, that the question Of
health should be placed ON a high
plane, and receive the first consid-
eration.-Light Of home.
