Electric Acupuncturp.

The Chinese, We are told. employed
acupuncture AT least 4. 200 years since.
and the japanese adopted it long ago.
Their practitioners employed punclur.
ing needles Of gold and silver, and their
manufacture was an art of great inn
portance. They were OF different
shapes. Some bla,led like swords and
others of the ordinary needle form.
Al the end of the G ghteenth century
acupuncture was introduced into Eu-
rope. and was developed in the present
centurr. M. Gaiffe. French elec,ri-
clan. has recent, constructed n variety
of needles for electrical acupuncture
spec ally applicable to the perforatiOn
Of painful tumors. so Ia To avo Il un-
necessary pain. BY the electric acu-
puncture the current is conveyed into
the tuinor and applet II, the point
where IT IS most required to effect the
d ssoiution of the morbid liquor con-
tanned in it. For this purpose the blade
is varnishe !, except at the point. and
thus insulated. so that TIE current only
escapes al the pOipt. Glass or India
rubber has been used 10 coat the needle.
but insulating varnish is preferred
since it does not ibicken the probe SO
much. The upper end of the needle is
connected To one pole of the votaic
battery used, and there is II conducting
plate applied 10 the skin, and connect
ed to the other pole. When, therefore,
the needle is forced into the tumor the
current flows from lis point to the con-
Quoting plate through the flesh, and
dccomposes any unhealthy fluids that
there may be in lis passage. This pro.
cess aids the absorption of these secre-
tons and the destruction Of the tulnor.

He was guitless Of shoes and of stockings,
And torn wer, the clothes that he wore,

And they hadn thing left TO eat
But bread, and as this was Thanksgiving

HARVEST HYMN.

Once more the liberal year laughs out
Ger richer stories than gems of gold;
Once more with harvest song and shout
Is natures boldest triumph told
Our common mother rests and sings
Like Ruth among her garnered sheaves
Her lap is full OF goodly things,
Her brow is bright with autumn leaves.
oh, favors old. yet ever new:
oh, blessings with the sunshine sent!
The bounty overruns our due,
The fullness sharnes our discomfort.
We shut our eyes, the bowers boom on;
We murmur, but the corn ears fill;
We choose the shadow, but the sun
That cas- its sh ne behind us still
Gives us, with our rugged soil,
The power TO make IL Eden fair,
And richer fruits To or )wn our toll
Than summer welded islands bear.
Who murinurs ut his lot to-dayi
Who scorns his native fruit and bloom,
Or signs for dainties far away,
Besides the bounteous board Of homel
Thank heaven, instead, that freedoms arm
Can change "a rocky soil TO gold:
Tnat brave and generous lives can warm
"A cline with northern ices cold.
And by these affairs wreathed with flowers
And fields with fruits awake again
Thanksgiving for the golden hours,
The earlier and the later rain.

THE SOULS THANKS.
BY CARL srENcER.

There is no Joy in all the earth,
There Is no bird 10 sing;
Scarce through the chill and silent air

Wan Nature in the dust OF death
Has east her hope away;
A nobler Joy, a Drawer faith
Must giorify TO day.
What music is in singing DAYS,
q soul, till thou re.oicel
Gods dumb creation patiently
Is waiting for thy voice.
For when this solemn hush is laid
On all the lesser things,
q then the sweetest bird He made
Serenest scars and sings.
What shall we renderl Thanks alone
For treasures of the dust.
For beauty blighted in the frost!
For wealth that turns 10 rusti
The heavens listen deeper: Sing,
. heart, thou IN faint and sad;
The gilt thy poverty may bring
Sail make thy Father glad.
His peace shall fall where penitence
Lays down its burdened years,
Aud grief that cannot smile as yet
May consecrate its tears.
He listens deep as deepest woe
To hear the song begin
Whose grand rejoicing overflow
Shall ring His KIN ydom in.
o Love, that Of thy de lrest gifts
Art still the dearer part!
IL is the sum aud Sc i of bliss
To see Thee as thou art.
And we who see not yet can sing,
Half knowing we are blest:
In every winter Thou art spring.
In every want rest
Hark through the ages ebb and flow
What rhythmic forces beat;
Wave after wave of growing light
Upbears us 10 His feet.
And when the shining hosts from far
With many songs appear,
The praises Of the saddest star
Shall hush them all to hear.

THE w. c. T. U. CONFERENCE.-The w

trict convened at the Methodist church
Wednesday afternoon at 3 O'Clock. After
the devotional exercises an address Of
welcome by Miss E. A. Luther, of this
place, and a response to the same by
Mrs. Thompson of Sank Rapids, were
both fine and were very creditable to the
ones who delivered them. A large por.
ton of the afternoon was taken up with
a roll call and report of unions. In the
evening the principal address was by
Mrs. Chipperield Of Little Pals, the dis,
trict president of the w. c. T. U. The
subject was scientific temperance and
was handled in a mastery by
the speaker. She showed herself to be
thoroughly conversant with the subject
and became particularly enthusiastic and
eloquent when she spoke of the direful
effects of Intoxicating liquors on the hui
man system and the need for temperance
instruction in our public schools. A large
number of delegates from outside points
were present this morning and some very
encouraging reports of unions were made
