CHURCH FROsTs. There is no body
which is more susceptible to the in
1uences of heat and cold than the
Christian Church. II is as sensitive
as a thermometer. 1t is the heat
which now empties most of our city
churches and closes their doors. 1t
is simply the difference between a
thermometer at fifty and thermome
ter at eighty. Let the thermometer
drop down to ten or twenty below
zero, and the effect is very much the
same, though modern furnaces have
driven Jack Frost very largely from
the meeting house, and introduced
more amiable temperature than that
to which our fathers were accustomed.
But there is still another form of
church frost prevailing. Neither wood
stoves nor furnace heat can Danish it
nothing but warmth of heart. We
noticed the other day large building
which had been tipped up at one cor
ner by the action of the frost. Its
whole frame was awry, its founda-
tons had not been deeply and secure
ly laid. There are churches that are
out of killer for the same cause.
Sometimes the frost tips up the pull
pit, sometimes it tips up the pew.
The church was not built to be an
ice-house or refrigerator. Let every
church see that its foundations are
laid deep enough in the warm earth,
and let the genial spirit of hospitality
prevail within.

The one crop system followed up,
will breed disease, no matter what
the crop may be. A rotation of crops
will, in a measure, if not wholly pre-
vent its development. Diverse crops
on the same soil is measurably pre-
ventive and as we'll a rejuvenator of
the soil. Corn following corn, or
wheat following wheat for series of
years is the prime cause of insect
pests; whereas an absolute change,
not only of crop, but of variety of
crop so as to induce change in the
method of cultivation, in the habits
of plant growth and the demands on
the soil will be very apt to prevent
the development of insect pests.

A wife once retired for the night,
worn out and petulant because of her
many cares, and her husbands alb
sence when she thought he might have
been at her side. After a time he
came home, sat down to his desk and
worked long and hard at his accounts,
while she lay looking out at him, and
feeling angry that he seemed wholly
unmindful of her. When he had laid
away slate and books she saw him I'M
lock a drawer, and take from it a
picture, which he fingered lovingly
over, tenderly kissed, and then re-
placed. Her woman's curiosity was
reused, and she determined to know
more of the matter. So, while he was
getting ready for bed, she feigned
asleep. He soon slept soundly, and
then she crept from her place, like
thief in the night, took the keys, I'M
locked the desk and drawer, and
found that her husband had been kiss
ing picture of herself, which was
taken when they were first married.
Then she was chagrined and morti-
fed because she had not been a more
loving wife, and went back to bed
with new resolutions formed. In the
morning she put on wrapper that
was clean and very becoming, collar
and bow, and carefully brushed her
hair. When her husband came in to
breakfast, he looked at her, caught
her in his arms and kissed her. Then
he asked the children if the little moth
er didn't look pretty. She was wise
enough not to forget the lesson
Christian AdUOcdte.

s'Another wonderful discovery has been made and
that by lady in this county. Disease fastened
its clutches upon her and for seven years she with

There is little or nothing to be said
against the washes used to remove
pimples and blackheads. They are
usually made by dermatologists of
good standing and do their work
properly and in a reasonable time.
1t is far better, however, to depend
upon a fine toilet soap or dilute am
monia, gentle but persistent rubbing,
the Turkish or Russian bath and a
piece of lemon. A two-weeks course
of the latter will improve any COM
plexion better than all the washes
extant and, more than that, will COR
respondingly improve the general
health.

Gods grace flows into our souls as
we let it flow on to others; and when
we cut off the over flow, our own con-
ducts become foul and gorged. He
who is ever giving himself away will
ever have renewed life. Grace will
do for his spiritual life what the
agencies of the body do for it in re-
placing the wastes. That body is
dead which ceased to give itself out
to make room for receiving new ele-.
ments. And this is the philosophy
of spiritual life. The miracle by
which empty souls about us are to be
filled with good is made dependent on
the obedience of Christ's servants,
and without obedience he can work
no miracles for us; for without our
cooperation any miracle in our be-
half would be our curse. The first
question IS, s'Where shall we begin %
Where would robin or a sparrow be-
gin in the work of filling emptiness
but in their own nests? the empty,
gaping mouths are filled before sun
rise. What have we done to fill the
empty souls of our own households?
Has word or prayer been dropped
into them?

Coughing

is Natures effort to expe1 foreign sub
stances from the bronchial passages.
Frequently, this causes Inflammation
and the need of an anodyne. No other
expectOrant or anodyne is equal to
Ayers Cherry Pectoral. 1t assists
Nature in ejecting the mucous, allays
irritation, induces repose, and is the
most popular of all cough cures.
"Of the many preparations before the
public for the cure of colds, coughs,
bronchitis, and kindred diseases, there
is none, within the range of my expert
ence, so reliable as Ayers Cherry Pee
toral. For years was subject to colds,
followed by terrible coughs. About four
years ago, when so afflicted, I was adj
vised to try Ayers Cherry PectOral and
to lay all other remedies aside. I did
so, and within a week was we'll of my
cold and cough. Since then I have
always kept this preparation in the
house, and feel comparatively secure"
Mrs. L. L. Brown, Denmark, Miss.
ga few years ago took a severe cold
which affected my lungs. I had ter
rible cough, and passed night after
night without sleep. The doctors gave
me up. / tried Ayers Cherry PectOral,
which relieved my lungs, induced sleep,
and afforded the rest necessary for the
recovery of my strength. BY the con-
tinual use of the Pectoral, permanent
cure was effected. "-Horace Fairbrother,

So the Christian life is work, it
is a warfare. 1t is campaign in a
country with the people conquered,
but still fighting. 1t is voyage to-
wards a haven through winds and
waves. 1t consists in the conquest
of sin in a sinful nature, in the attain
ment of holiness in an unholy heart.
1t is like life in an infected city it
is sustained in the midst of deleteri-
Gus and deadly influences. The sin
ner yet in his sins is not engaged in
the battle, and so is not aware of the
strength of the enemy. Those going
down with the stream do not know it's
power: those only who are bearing
up against it are conscious Of the
strength of the current.

FACTS WORTH KNowING.-In all diseases of the
nasal mucous membrane the remedy used must be
non-irritatlng. The medical profession has been
slow to learn this. Nothing satisfactory can be ac
complished with douches, snuffs, powders or syr-
inges because they irritating, do not thoroughly
reach the affected surfaces and should be abandon
ed as worse than failures. A multitude of persons
who had for years borne all the worry and pain
that catarrh infict testify to radical cures
wrought by Ely's Cream Balm.

Sawdust as a Fertilizer.

Sawdust as fertilizer, says the Hum
boldt Mail, will strike our readers as a
new idea; and yet, when they reflect that
vegetable loan is the richest and best
garden soil to be had, it will be seen that
the despised sawdust has possibilities, at
least. We have the statement of noted
New York farm gardener to the effect that
for many years he has top-dressed his
small fruit gardens with sawdust at the
beginning of winter, and from this treat
ment he has had the very best results.
The small portion of his garden which has
been regularly manured gives ne better
returns of fruit, while that portion treat
ed with sawdust is comparatively free
from weeds and works much easier, the
sawdust having the effect of keeping the
earth moist and loose. 81 have learned"
says the experimentOr, ''that this sur
facing, which is so easily and cheaply and
in so many ways benefcially laid on, an
swers all the purposes of expensive ma
nuring. and the difference is handsome
item of profit. But the savingis not this
alone, for there is perhaps as great a saw
ing in the cost of working the ground.
Much of my ground has been plowed or
spaded for many years, but, with this
simple annual mulch, is as fruitful as any,
and this in heavy, clayey SOIL
eff sawdust possesses the virtues here
ascribed to it, it is pity so much of it
should be burned up at our lumber mills.
Enough is consumed by fire every year to
make tillable every acre of land in the
State. 1t should be used sparingly-iust
what will rot and unite with the soil from
year to year 'Aquarter of an inch deep
for Strawberries, says the experimentor.
1t is good for berry bushes of all kinds
and for general gardening"

The Florida agriculturist., 1889-06-05

FLORIDA, says the American Agricultur-
ist, offers desirable homes to thousands
of Industrious families, but not in the
way proposed by the gift enterprise, free
homestead schemes, etc. Nothing-the
yellow fever not excepted-has injured
the good name and progress of the State
so much as these so-called free homestead
companies. So say we all.
