Secret of the Skin.

Did it ever occur to you that the skin
wants exercise and gets very little Moth
ing is better tonic for the complexion
than brisk cold sponge bath on rising,
followed by vigorous rubbing with a dry
towel, not too coarse, the face and neck re-
eeiving their full share of the friction un-
less the skin is very sensitive, in which
case the bare hands may be the instrument
instead of the linen. This sets the blood
to moving briskly and electrifes the system.
At bedtime warm bath may be taken and
the face should be washed slowly, carefully
and thoroughly with warm water and cas-
tile soap. The oily matter exuding from
the skin catches minute particles Of dust
which cannot be removed in any other way,
and many eruptions on the face are caused
by nothing else than neglect of this simple
preeaution. After this wholesome cleans
ing dip the face into basin of clear, cold
water, opening and shutting the eyes under
the surface, and the flesh will be left firm
and healthy. This entire process viii take
barely ten minutes in the morning and
twenty at night, and can, if needful, be
taken from the regular sleep, the bath
being quite as restful and refreshing.

sedentary Life.

There are hundreds of people to-day
leading sedentary lives who ought to profit
by the warning contained in Lord Beaeons-
fields case Next to the gospel of rest, of
which so much has been said, there is
nothing more sadly neglected than the
gospel of exercise. The man who is COM
PEELED to sit all day at a desk in counting
room and undergo the anxiety of response
bility and the worry of business cannot af-
ford to do so without exercise. He may
be pleased to think that he keeps his skin
dry, and that his limbs do not ache; but
the man who exercises his muscles until
gentle moisture shall come over him will
feel freshness and vigor and enjoy a
healthful rest otherwise unobtainable Such
exercise will aid his digestive powers, it
will enable him to throw off disease when
ever it may come, aud it will save him from
dyspepsia, and from the horrors of torpid
liver, with all the mental ailments which
come in its train. Dr. Kidd only utters a
truth which is as old as the world itself
when he says that Nature has a Nemesis
power of reyenging herself ON the man of
sedentary life.

G. F. Jackson, in Philadelphia Ledger.
81 shall arise" For centuries
Upon the gray old churchyard stone
These words have stood; no more is said,
The glorious promise stands alone,
Untouched, while years and seasons roll
Around il; March winds come and go,
The summer twilights fall and fade
And autumn sunsets turn and glow.
Il shall arise" o wavering heart,
From this take comfort and be strong
81 shall arise" nor always grope
In darkness, mingling right with wrong
From tears and pain, from shades of doubt.
And wants within. that blindly call,
81 shall arise" in Gods own light
Shall see the sum and truth ofall.
Like children here we lisp and grope,
And, till the perfect manhood wait
AT home our time, and only dream
ofthat which lies beyond the gate;
Gods fun free universe of life,
No shadowy paradise of bliss.
No realm Of unsubstantial souls
But life, more real life than this
o soul where'er your ward is kept,
In some still region calmly bleSt,
BY quiet watchhres till the dawn,
And Gods reveille break your rest:
soul that left this record here,
read, but scarce can read for tears,
bless you, reach and clasp your hand,
For all these long two hundred years.
Y shall srise.'s o clarion CALI
Time rolling onward TO the end
Brings Us TO life that cannot die.
The life where faith and knowledge blend.
Each after each the cycles roll
In silence. and about US here
The shadows Of the great White Throne
Falls broader, deeper. year by year.

itching may be temporarily relived with
warm, weak salaTatus water, dropped into
the passage
1t Is common practice in such cases
and many others to drop into the ear sweet
oil or glycerine. Their use. can scarcely
ever be justified, and certainly in some
conditions of the ear it is absolutely for
hidden as harmful Not only is itching
when severe an evidence of trouble within
the ear, but all such sensations, as of full
ness, Of burning or Of pain, also indicate
that there is some disease going on therein.
and, OF course, physician should be con-
suited. For these symptoms and for some
others the syringe is frequently brought
into service. Very generally that instru-
ment is a small glass affair which is well
nigh valueless for the purpose to which it
Is put. To syringe out the ear is a very
nice operation, and one can scarcely do it
properly without being instructed by
physician.
Where there is any deposit in the ear,
as OF hardened wax, ETC., considerable
quantity of water must be thrown into it
in order to do any good Again, the
stream must be properly directed or more
harm than good will result; instead of being
dislodged and washed out, the offending
substance to be removed will be driven
farther in and become packed against the
drum. Then there are other things to be
considered in this connection. In using
syringe, if stream of water is thrown
against the drum with too great force,
injury is sure to result. In that way it is
possible to rupture the drum, but if that is
not done inflammation viii very likely be
the consequence. Again, water too hot or
too cold may set up an Inflammation.
Therefore, all things considered, the rule is
liked that Swinging the ear should never
be done unless physician has advised it
and given ample instructions as to all its
details

Mieroscopieal research by Pasteur, Hnx-

Of Europe has developed the fact that eatar-
rhal affections os the nose, throat and other
parts Of the respiratory tract are caused by
germs or parasites, which infect the mucous
membrane of these parts, and cause iniiam-
nation that frequently results in one or more
Of the following diseases; Weak eyes,

excellence is most strikingly observed, as II
dissolves and promptly removes the pseudo
or diphtheretic membrane, and gives imme-
diate relief, and, if followed by proper eonsti-

Killing Grass With Hot Brine.

After several inquiries for some cheap
and effectual mode of destroying trouble
some grass and weeds that spring up in
drives and walks, a correspondent of the
Country Gentleman has received the fol
lowing "Boiling hot brine sprinkled over
grass and weeds viii kill every green thing.
The brine need not be strong, especially
when the vegetation is young and tender
Hot brine, even when it is not strong, will
kill tender leaves and roots, when it would
injure plants only little if applied cold
A large potful Of weak brine viii be sufi-
eient to sprinkle long walk, drive or gut
ter when the grass is young and tender.
of course, the larger and older the vegeta-
ton may be, the more brine will be re-
quired. If the hot brine is sprinkled on
the grass near the middle of the day, when
the sun shines in its full effulgence, and
when every leaf and stem is free from rain
or dew drops, the brine win be more effect
ual than if applied when everything is wet
If one has too much gravel walk, drives
or cutters to be sprinkled with hot brine,
let fine salt be sowed wherever grass or
weeds appear; salt will subserve the same
purpose as hot brine, although it will not
operate so quickly Let the salt be sowed
immediately after a shower, when the
ground and leaves are wet. If fsowed prior
TO shower, most of it may be washed
away by the little streams that viii carry
away all the saline elements before they
have been dissolved Salt viii not iniure
the leaves and roots until it has been
thoroughly dissolved
Brick CUTTERS or cutters made Of cobble
stones or fiat stones, or Belgian cutters, can
all be kept entirely free from all annual
weeds or perennial grass of any species by
the timely application of little salt. Even
that irrepressible quaek or couch grass that
will sometimes spring up in the joints of
flag or blue stone walks, almost defying
every effort towards determination, will
quickly disappear after few applications
Of hot brine. A few cents worth Of salt
applied at the proper time viii save many
hours Of laborious hoeing and pulling weeds
and grass by hand. In some localities
poison ivy gives many persons an immense
amount Of trouble. Cut the vines close to
the ground at any season of the year, and
sprinkle the young sprouts with hot brine
two or three times, and this pernicious vine
will never poison any one again.

MEAT EATERS AND CANCER. has
been held by not few that meat eaters
are more liable to cancer than vegetarians;
in fact, the latter think that by living on a
purely vegetable diet they are safe from
that dread malady. 1t has been found
from the records of the Mayo Hospital at
Jeypore, India, that in l02 cases Of cancer
which were operated upon, 4 were on the
persons of flesh eaters, while 81 were on
those of street vegetarians, who had never
eaten meat since their birth.
