PITH AND POINT.

A fool can start a fire that the wtsest man in the world can pot inf out.
 We sometimes teach others by our actions the very things we do not want them to know.
 A great many people are like the ordinary cur dog; too small for watch dog, and too large for a pet.-Atchison Globe.
 Endurance is moro valuable than cleVerness. It is the patient, steady plodders who gain and keep fortunes.
 You can no more judge man by his daily walk and conversation than you can an election day saloon by it's ront dOor.-Detroit Free Press.
 An unfair thing in this world is that we never know there is an ounce of prevention untll after we have taken our pound of cure.
 It has been observed that the man with the fewest failings is the man most tolerant of those of his neighbors. .-Bos- ton Courier.
 They who are most weary of life, and yet the most unwilling to die, are such who have lived to no purpose; who have rather breathed than lived.-Clar- endon.
 The doctor who cuts man open after death and tells what is the matter with him has the advantage of the doctor who is compeled to guess what is the matter with the patient before death.
 It is every mans duty to do right. In order to do right deliberately, a man needs to know what is right Finding out what is right is, therefore, an es- sential prerequisite of right-doing.-S. s. Times.
 A distinguished divine once said: ''I wish that ministers and lecturers would be a little more generous of thought and more stingy of words. You don't want yoke of oxen to drag a cartload of potatoes on smooth road"
 When the energies pause, and the worker settles down, he may find com- fort and ease, but the inspiration of the great struggle is no longer with him; hisreal life is finished unless he takes into some other field that energy which has secured him success.
 Steady work for the love of it, and for the satisfaction and peace which it brings, never breaks the worker down. On the contrary, it so weakens temptations from without, and so de- stroys inferior ambitions and desires, that it gives the whole nature steadi- T1aCc and nOiCo iC Una host oura for restlessness. The joy of life for strong natures lies h @ noble activity; Q work adequate to the aspirat tions of the soTI; a work that brings calm by its magni- rude, and by it's very demands evokes the best and greatest in Us.-Rural New Yorker.

THEY DIED TOGETHER.
4 Kingfisher Seized by Pickerel and
 Both Are Killed.

A kingfsher sat on a branch of dead
 tree, on the edge of Lake Keuka, the
 other day, near Fairchilds' Point, watch
 tng for his dinner. A black-bass fisher-
 man was in his boat in the cove only
 two or three rods above the spot where the bird was sitting. He
 quit fishing and kept his eye on the
 kingfisher, curious to see the bird dive
 for it's fish when the time came. He had
 to wait but short time, for fish came
 within the line of the kiDgfisher's
 vision, and the bird dropped like stone into the water and disappeared beneath the surface. It reappeared almost inn mediately with a fish impaled in it's strong, spear-like beak. The birds body had scarcely come to sthe surface, how ever, when it disappeared again with suddenness that left no doubt that it had been jerked back by something that had seized it. The kingfsher did not como up again, and the fisherman rowed to the spot where it had gone down to see if he could find an explanation of the birds strange disappearance. A dead pickerel, about eight inches long, was floating on the water. A hole through it's body below the dorsal fin showed plainly enough that the pickerel was the fish the kingfisher had speared. The fisherman drifted about the spot for some time, but being unable to dis cover any thing that would solve the mystery of the birds disappearance, was turning his boat to TOW back to the cove when something came to the surface near the shore, twenty-five yards below. The fisherman rowed down to the spot, and to his surprise found an immense pickerel, and with it the kingfsher. One of the kingfisher's legs was be- tween the great jaws of the pickerel, the latter's long teeth being set through and through it. The kingfsher's long, keen bill was thrust through the pick erel's body from side to side, six inches below the head. The situation ex- plained itself The pickereI had seized the kingfisher as it was rising from the water with the small fish and pulled it back beneath the surface, expecting to dine on it. The big bird had instinct lively turned and iabbed it's beak through the pickerel, inficting fatal wound. The pickerel, with the bulldog tenacity of it's kind, had kept it's hold on the birds leg, and the two had died togeth- CT and hOated to the surface. The po- sition of the two was not changed, and they have been sent to Rochester taXidermist to be preserved and mount ed as they appear in their death em- brace.-Hammondsport (N. Y.) Cor. N. Y. Sun.

ABOUT VENTILATION.
The Most Important Matter During the
 Winter Season.

Winter Season.
 We have now come to the time of the year when we shall sit with our win dows closed and our doors also, and shall consequently feel the loss of that pure air which we have hitherto ad- mitted through open doors and windows. Not only shall we suffer this loss, but we shall have to endure the untold evils that accompany the warmth of stoves and furnaces. We can do much, however, to mitigate these evils by judicious ventilation of our houses, but it will require some management and little study to accomplish this. The simplest method of ventilating a room is by opening the window from the top and putting it up from the bottom, allowing the foul warm air to escape and the pure air to enter. An open fireplace helps greatly to keep the air pure. If the bedroom windows are guarded by shades and blinds, one at least may remain open all night, provided it does not subject the sleeper to a draught, and the effect will be highly beneficial. This should most certainly be done in any apartment heated by stove or furnace, as carbonic- oxide escapes from either as ordinarily manufactured.
 Air is sure to become unwholesome whenever it stagnates long, so the best thing one can do is to make it circulate, or at least to set it in motion outward from the room, and this can be done, as we have said, by opening the window at top and bottom. If windows and doors are opposite each other. open both, if it is only for sixty seconds, and let strong rush of cold air come in; and this will drive the heated foul air out.
 On coming into the room after this ventilation, no one with any sensibility can fail to discover the healthful differ ence between foulness and purity. This simple act of ventilation should be per- formed in every sleeping chamber where lamps have been lighted and people sit ting before retiring. This thorough air cleansing will be needed in addition to opening the sashes and leaving them thus with blinds closed and shades drawn doWn.-Ladies' World.

LEAD PARALYSIS.

4 Terrible Di-saea FreuuCutiy ..H.-i ay
 the Use of Hair Dyes.
 Loss of color of the hair is next to loss of hair in causing general anxiety Good, healthy hair should increase in intensity of color up to the age ol four teen, and retain it's natural shade up to middle life. The change then should be very gradual, and not sudden, and it should not be entirely white before very old age.
 Premature graying, or loss of color in the hair, is caused often in the same way that badness is brought on, by an un- healthy scalp. The granular pigments at the roots of the hairs may entirely disappear, or lose their power of diffus- ing the coloring matter in the growth of the hair. If a spear of hair is once colored it never loses it's color, but when they push out of the follicle with out being colored by the matter, they never regain it.
 Local disturbances of nutri tiOn will often cause the hair to change color in spots. The most frequent cause of this is neuralgia in the head, which runs along the course of certain nerves, and effectually destroys the coloring pig ments The best cure for this is to rub the scalp in that locality every day, and apply tonics such as suggested for bald ness. This will give tone to the mus cles, and the glands which secrete the oil and cOloring matter.
 A sudden nervous shock will also often cause a sudden loss of color in the hair. In such cases the roots of the hair and the glands containing the color ing matter are injured, and there is TO way to restore the color, except by dye ing. In resorting to this method, how ever, one should know beforehand what kind of a preparation he is applying. Lead paralysis has often been caused by using hair dyes indiscriminately. - Yankee Blade.
