not always, alas! those we would
choose as companions for our boys
and girls, nor is the street an ideal
place for them to play. Ii they use
the latter as playground any careful
selection of companions among the
miscellaneous groups about them will
be difficult, and any attempt to en-
force it there will be prone to lead to
local notoriety that, to say the least,

The eighteenth annual report of the
London Temperance Hospital has just
been issued. The in-patients for the
wear were 743, of whom $50 were cur
ed, 25S were relieved, go were unre-
leved, and 45 died, mortality OF not
quite 6 per cent. From the opening
of the hospital there have been admit
ted as in-patients 6,S96, of whom 1881
were cured, and 428 died, mortality
of 60 per cent. The visiting physicians
and surgeons are not bound by any
strict rule to reject the use of alcohol
should they deem it absolutely neces-
aary, but they have very seldom pre-
scribed it, and the unsatisfactory re-
suits which have followed its admins
tration. have confirmed them in their
convictions as to the superiority of
non alcoholic treatment. Last year
there were two exceptional cases from
the distinctive feature of the hospital.
A man aged seventy five was admitted
into a private ward upon the certl1l-
cate of a medical practitioner at Bath.
He underwent an operation for ma
lignant disease, and, being weak from
long standing bronchitis, he gradually
lost strength. He was ordered a table
spoonful of Spiratus Vi1ti Rectittcdtus, to
be given with egg and milk every SIX
hours. but he died in the course OF
few days. The other exceptional case
that of a woman aged sixty -one, who
had thrown herself out Of window
and sustained severe fractures OF sew
eraI bones. She also suffered from
bronchitis. For a time she took her
nourishment we'll, but she afterward
/ lost ground. One ounce of spirits OF
wine was ordered to be given every
! four honrs, and afterwards an ounce
of alcohol every six hours. There was,
| however, no Improvement, and she
died. These were the only cases dur
inc the year for which alcohol was
prescribed

The man without a stomach may exist as a

stomach as necessary to life and comfort
Most of us experience a little trouble from
this source occasionally, wrong action of the
stomach causing dyspepsia, etc, and often
the trouble extends. involving the liver and
bowels, whence we find biliousness and con-
stipation. We find also that the bowels and
kidneys natures sewage system become
clogged with effete matter, from which comes

DR.. T. Gaillard Thomas, one of the
most noted physicians of New York
city, in an address upon ''The Posi-
bilities of Medicine" declares himself
as follows: ''Were I offered to-day by
some great power the accomplishment
of one wish, / think that would select
the destruction of the process by
which alcohol is created. L know full
we'll that the most cruel, the most
treacherous, and the most vinv1ctlve
of all the races of the earth are the
most temperate; for example, the
Hindoos, the Turks, the Arabs, and
the most brutal of all savages, the i'm
placable North American Indian. But,
putting advantages and disadvantage
es into mental scales, [ should select,
as the wish nesting closest to my
heart, the abolition of alcohol"

The old lady who never spoke i'll OF
any one, and even minated that Sa-
tan himself set some good people an
example of perseverance, must nave
been a relative to the woman who
lived in Sussex, England, in the days
when the kettle was hung from the
crane in an open fireplace. An En-
glish clergyman tells the story:
A man whose wife was blessed with
a remarkably even temper, went over
the way to a neighbor one evening
and said: 'ENeighbor, I should like to
see my wife cross for once, I've trled
all l know, and can't make her cross
no wav." 'eYou can't make your wife
cross?'' said his neighbOr. 81 wish L
could make mine anything else. But
you just do what I tell you, and If that
won't act nothing will. You bring her
in some night a lot of the crookedest
sticks you can get, them as won't lie
in no form, and see how she makes
out then" The pieces Of wood were
accordingly brought in, as awkward
and crooked and contrary as could be
! found. The man went away early to
work and at noon returned to see the
result of his experiment. He was
greeted with smile and the gentle re-
quest: "Tom, do bring me in some
more of those crooked sticks, ii you
can find them; they do just fit around
the kettle so nicely!'

Pundita Ramabai, upon being inter-
rogated as to whether she was satisfied
with the results of her work thus far,
replied: ''I should have rejoiced to
see larger results, but considering the
difficulties, I feel have much cause
for thankfulness. Take that one fact
out of these thirty widows | have
the assurance, from their own lips,
that their coming here has saved
nearly twenty of them from suicide,
starvation or a life of shame. This
fact alone is an abundant reward for
all our toll and expense"

From the crown to the nape OF the
neck is one twelfth of the stature OF
the perfectly formed man.
The hand from the wrist to the end
of the middle finger is one tenth of
the total height of a man of perfect
proportions.
A man of good proportions is as tall
as the distance between the tips of his
fingers when both arms are extended
at full length.
The face, from the highest point of
the forehead where the hair begins to
the end of the chin is one tenth of the
whole stature of the man of perfect
mold.
If the face, from the roots of the
hair to the chin, be divided into three
equal parts the first division deter
mines the place where the eyebrows
should meet, the second the opening
of the nostrils, if perfectly formed.
The proportions of the human figure
are six times the length of the right
foot. Whether the form is slender or
plump the rule holds good on an aver
age. Any deviation from the rule is
a departure from the beauty Of pro-
portion. 1t is claimed that the Greeks
made all their statues according to
this rule.

Glover Boy.

GLOVER Boy is one of the most perfect hors-
es in Northern Vermont. Our country is Hood
ed with small horses of little value. such
horses are not in great demand. Horses OF
LOO lbs with good style and action, Will al
wavs be in demand at high prices. 1t costs
but a few dollars more at the start to raise a
colt to bring $500 to $500 at four years old,
than to raise one that can never bring more
than half that at the same age. He is a beau
weighs over 200 lbs. He has taken first pre-
MUM at Caledonia and Orleans County Fairs.
GLOVER Boy was sired by Prince Albert, DR.,
his dam Thoroughbred Bulrush Morgan. He
was formerly owned in Cookshlre, +. q, ana
has since been taken to Brookllne, near Bos-
ton Prince Albert was Thoroughbred Eng
lish, and imported by the Drummond Agrl-
cultural Society at cost of $4,000 and was
noted for style, durability and speed. The
Bulrush Morgan is a breed of horses usually
weighing 100 lbs, and are noted as the best
farm horses superior roadsters, and for COM
ing to maturity from one to two years young

We count success a good thing.
But the measure Of our success should
be the measure of lives rounded to a
bounteous fullness with good deeds,
pure thoughts, and holy purposes. The
success which comes only from the
gathering together of earthly treasures
even though the glittering dust be
pure gold and the sparkling baubles
genuine diamonds, or sapphlres or
rubies or other stones of like precious
worth. counts for little in the summing
up of our lives if they constitute our all
and only treasures. We cannot wear
them as spiritual ornaments, nor will
they serve to satisfy a single immortal
need in themselves alone. They are
good and pleas ant things. So, too,
are flowers and delicate foods. But
all these have their place; and they
should be kept subordinate to growth
of charachter, nor ever be permitted
to become stumbling blocks in the way
| of our getting truer riches. These words
apply equally well to Housekeeping
as to other avocations. To feed the
hungry and to dispence bountifully is
the privilege of her who holds the keys
of the storeroom and the pantry, and
quite as much her duty as to provide
light and warmth and exquisite food
for her family and her guests.

THE AGE OF MAN.

When was man first placed on earth?
No man can answer that question.
Hugh Miller says that mans habit OF
burying his dead out of sight makes II
very easy to be mistaken on that
point: for, because of burial, mems
bones may be found among the ami
mails that have lain in the earth for
ages. There is one thing, however,
that gives us an inkling of when he
came. Certain tools, that only man
could have made, have been found
buried in caves, in peat beds, and in
the bottom of lakes. Often these are
covered by layers of roci-; and, by
calculating how long it took to make
the LAYERS, a guess can be made as to
when the tools were put there. Still,
it is only guess, and no one pretends
to regard the question as settled, be-
cause under some conditions the lay
ers would be made much faster than
under others. But the bones of GER
tain animals, the mammoth and other
great creatures of that time, which
nave lOUS nave OCCh 1OOllN
with these tools. By calculating in
what ages these animals lived, and
how long it takes race of animals to
die out, a surer result can be arrived
at. In cave in England, buried I'M
der limestone layer from one to fif-
teen inches thick, tools have been
found mingled with the bones of ele-
plants, tigers, rhinoceroses, and hye-
mas, which roamed over that country
thousands and thousands of years ago
The peat boys of what is now Denmark
and Scandinavia are filed with stone
tools. Some have been found in beds
of gravel, underlying peat which is
certainly seven thousand years old
This seems to show that man must
have dwelt on earth at least as many
years ago.
