A STORM IN WORCESTER.
Snow Hnl's Railroad Communication Cut
Off-A Mill Swept Away.

Oh-A Mill swept away.
Snow HILL, Md, July 2S-A rain
storm surprising all previous ones that
have fallen this year in Worcester county
began here early Thursday morning last,
and continued with increased fury
throughout Friday. All railroad com
munication has been cut off since Friday
in consequence of numerous washouts,
and it will probably be several days be-
fore trains can again commence run
ming. Where the Delaware, Maryland and
Virginia Railroad lcrosses mill pond,
about one mile from Snow Hill nearly
twenty 1--WE feet Of road bed has been cut
away. A wrecking train has been tele.
graphed for, but is as yet unable to reach
the scene on account of washouts further
up the road. Mail can be received here
only by stage by way of Pocomoke City.
Purnell's mill near Snow Hill, was com
pletely swept away Friday night, together
with bridge and large portion of dam
over which ran a country roadway. The
Pocomoke river at this point has overrur
its banks, and mills and other industries
in that portion Of the town have been
obliged to suspend operation. The Oldest
inhabitants fail TO recall such scenes as
are now witnessed hers. The wind dur
ing the storm was from the northeast
but was not very severe. Were it not
for the fact that the country here is
quite level, permitting the water to ruI
off more gradually, the result of such 8
deluge of water would have been fal
more disastrous. AS it is, the work Of
rebuilding bridges and repairing roads
will entail heavy cost upon the county.
With this last storm, too, is swept away
the last remnant Of hope for the growing
crops in Worcester. A few farmers most
favorably situated WILL perhaps raise
half an average crop Of corn, while many
others win raise none. Baltimore Sun.

Whole Lie Of Holland.
n some way mills are among the
most suggestive things in Holland; they
seem to sum up the whole life sof the
country. Its hard to define The exact
impression they produce; one almost
unconsciously assigns to each mill an
existence ofsits own, as II no mere ma
chine could cause the swift rhythmical
motion of the sails, that impetuous yet
ordered cadence which seems 10 bring
one into contact with the living forces
OF nature. It is perhaps this intimat>
association with nature which gives to
the Windmill its peculiar charm. The
strong outline of the: sails thrown up
against wind-swept sky carries the
Imagination from the city to the lonely
fields, it suggests that poerY sof soil
tude, even Of desolation, which all
painters since Rembrandt seem to have
felt to be the distinctive. notesof the
windmill. One OF the most curious
sights in Rotterdam are the. wind-mills
rising hero and there out Of the blocks
OF houses. standing like : countryman
fresh from the field. and ~hedgerows in
the midst ofa crowded city. The Dutch
mills almost reach the: dignity of archi-
lecture. They seem to possess that Gu
r;ous happiness Of design which is
only reached by the conscious thought
OF a skillful architect, or else
by the spontaneous working of nature.
Every thing seems just right, just what
it ought to be, no more and no less. The
wind-mills at Dordt are used either for
saving timber or grinding corn, and
the two types are very distinct The
timber mills start from q. square stag
Ing, tapering upward, with gable wings
at either end; at the top of this stage
the four angles are chamfered back to
receive the octagon of the mill itself;
and at this level broad projecting
gallery, upheld by timber struts, runs
round the mill. The upper part is oc-
tagon, and usually covered with wealth
or tiles or a soft velvety thatch, which
sets of the sharply defined lines of the
sails and the great spars by which the
top is moved. For some excellent rea-
son the lines OF the eight angles of the
mill are not made straight but have a
delicate concave curve. The Dutch
builders always had a feeling for the
value of a curved line in preference to
straight; the same instinct appears in
the aeches to their churches, where the
sides of the octagon spire usually have
slight curve on the face inward. The
top of the mills which carries the sails
is covered with thatch. It is moro or
less circular in plan, and of an indie
scribable but most effective form, such as
only thatch could cover.-English H.

oclentlnc men see no reason why the span
OF human life may not be extended to &
round hundred years from the present limit
of seventy to eli ghty years.
The age to which persons lived varies in
Old Testament chronology.
From Adams time to that of Methuselaf
and Noah, men are recorded as attaining tt
well nigh the age Of 1000 years. The Psalm
lst David, however, says: 1.-THE days Of
our age are three score years and ten; and
though men be so strong that they come tc
fourscore years, yet is their strength ther
but labor and sorrow; so soon passeth il
away, and we are gone'
This wide margin of longevity, together
with proper observance of mental, moral anG
physical laws, leads Investigators to believe
it is possible that human life might be made
to increase in length of day3 to q full
century, at least.
Moderation and regularity in eating
drinking and sleeping are conducive to Ion
gevity, and those who observe proper habits
| and use pure and efficacious remedies when
sick, may accomplish immense labor with
no apparent injury to themselves and with.
| out foreshortening their lives.
Hon. H. H. Warner, President of the
| Rochester, N Y, Chamber of Commerce
and manufacturer of the celebrated War
! ner's Safe Cure, has devoted much time
| and research to this subject of longevity
and has arrived at tLo satisfactory conclu-
| sion that life may be prolonged and man
virile powers increased and preserved at
the same time by rational and natural
means. Thousands of persons are living
to-day-enjoying the blessing of perfect
health and vigor-who will testify to the
almost magical efficacy of Warmers Safe
Cure in restoring them to physical potency
and to the normal type of constitution,
after they had almost given up hope of
life.
After middle age, many begin to lose
| their wonted vigor of body, and thereupon
give way to inertness and useless repining.
Yet all such have within reach that which
both renews youth and contributes to the
prolongation of life. Warmers marvellous
Safe Cures are in every drug store, and
| are now regarded as standard specifics
! throughout the civilized world.
The strong desire to attain old age-mean-
| time retaining the virile powers of body
| and mind-is necessarily connected with
the respect paid to aged persons, for people
| would scarcely desire to be old, were the
aged neglected or regarded with mere SUI
ferance. That is a high civilization in
which age is made a source of distinction
! OF all marks of respect, that to ageis most
willingly paid, because every one who does
! homage to age may himself, eventually, be-
come an object of such homage.
