A Remarkable Disease.

In no physiological phenomena is the influence of the nerves upon the body shown so forcibly as m the case of homesickness, which. when pro- longed and intensified. becomes a mortal disease. The melancholy of the nature which loves home and de- spairs of again seeing it preys upon the nervous system until it is wrought into state of abnormal excitement which presents distinct physical symp- toms. Respiration presently becomes labored, and is more like signing than breathing; the face wears the pallor of corpse already; the heart beats with the swiftness of great debility; there is no appetite, there is no sleep; secre- tions become irregular, and congestion a matter of course; the sight be- comes dim, fever sets in. and either sudden death closes the scene, or the exhaustion of the fever carries off tho patient after prolonged suffering. There is no cure for this terrible ill., ness, after it is strongly established. but return to the native country, and sometimes that cure is undertaken too late. It attacks moutainers, singular ly enough. more frequently than any other class of people, and the only preventive against it is the presence of some other equally strong emotion with the love of home. or some ab- sorbiug occupation which leaves one no time to think, and hardly 10 feel. Perfectly sane though the patient be, he has all the impedimenta of insan- ity in an effort for recovery, and is as piliable as any victim in the records of suffering. - Harper's Basar

The Books That Have Helped Me Most.

The Books That Have Helped Me Most. To the Editor Of The Arkansd,c Trareler:
 As all the great lights of literature are taking into their heads to let the public know what books have helped them most, I think I would be derelict in duty not to follow suit. All great men have not the same tastes, and what might be sauce for Prof. Soft head, would be an emetic for me. But to the books: "Drake, on How to Play Seven-Up and Poker" has been of immense value to me, for there I learned the art and wisdom of al- ways reserving bower or extra ace for the coat sleeve. In fact, it has saved and made money for me. Then the works of Sut Luvengood have been of immense value in furnishing me with incidents for entertaining an evening party of ladies and gentlemen. Another substantial work which has been of untold wealth is "Holt, on How to Mix Drinks" I have made money out of that as I one time se- cured a position by knowing the eleventh page by heart. "Todd on Cocktails" also has been valuable. When it comes to fiction will state that the most valuable books have been Left Handed Luke" ;" "Rory, the Slasher," "Rattle Snake Dick" and "Squint- Eyed Bob, the Bully of the Woods" |" which, with D. W. Stevens "Mike Fish," and his wonderful "James Boys" series, I regard as models of classic fiction. There are two works yet to be written which might be of immense value to the world. They are on the all import ant subjects of "Free Lunch," and "Free Raiload Rides." When can procure those two precious vol umes, my library will be complete. Any person who will procure them and forward them to the undersigned will enjoy the everlasting gratitude of BENJAMIN BRoADAxE.
