NO. 6.


1t is a noticeable fact that along
shores ofthe Mediterranean Sea,
where fruit is abundant and lemons
cheap, although disease has often
found a lodgment, it has not become
epidemic, but has been easily stamp
ed out. The imperial health Office,
5of Berlin, has issued an annouus e
ment to The effect that oranges and
lemons are both fatal to the cholera
bacillus. Placed in contact with
the cut surface of the fruit, the bac-
terra survives but few hours. They
remain active for sometime longer
on the uninjured rind of the frnit,
but even there they die within "a
hours. The destructive property as
regards the cholera bacteria is sup
posed to be due to the large amount
of acid contained in these fruits.
In consequence of this quality, the
health officer considers it unneces-
sary to place any restrictions on the
transit and sale of these fruits, even
if it should be aseertained that they
come from places where cholera is
prevalent at the time. Not a single
instance was noted in which cholera
was disseminated by either oranges
or lemons.
From France comes the word that
'smedical authorities assert that cit
ric acid is sure death to the bacilli
of cholera and typhoid fever" NJ.
Girard, a celebrated FRSech chem
list, is reported to have stated re-
Gently that one gramme of citric
acid added to a quart of tainted
water will effectually destroy all
microbes that may be in it. Hence
he recommends tho free use of lem
onade as most desirable beverage
at all times, but especially during
epidemics of dread disease.
From the above it woald appear
that cleanliness and lemon juice wiz
cure cholera, and both arc in the
reach of all.

A CheerruI Face.

Next 10 the sunlight of Heaven, is
the sunlight of a cheerful face.
There is no mistaking it. The
bright eye, the unclouded brow, tho
sunny smile-all tell of that which
dwells within. Who has not felt it's
cIectrifying influence? One glance
at this face lifts us at once out of tho
mists and shadows, away from tears
and repinings, in the beautiful
realms of hope. One cheerful face
in household will keep everything
bright and warm within. Envy,
hatred, malice, selfishness, despond-
ency, and host of evil passions
may lurk round the door, they may
even look within, but they never
enter and abide-tlrc cheerful faco
will put them all to shame and
flight.
1t may be a very plain face, but
there is something in it that we feel
we cannot express and its cheerful
face sends the blood dancing through
our veins for very joy. We turn
toward the sun, and its warm, genial
influence refreshes and strengthens
our fainting spirits. Alb, there is u
world of magic in the plain, cheer
full face! 1t charms us with a spell
of eternity, and we would not ex-
change it for all the soulless beauty
that ever graced the fairest form ON
earth.
1t may be very little one that
we nestle upon our bosom or sing to
sleep in our arms with low, sweet
lullaby; but it is such n bright,
CHEEKY face! The scintillations of
joyous spirits are flashing from ev-
cry feature. And what a power it
has over the household, binding each
heart together in tenderness and
love and sympathy Shadows may
darken around us, but somehow this
face ever shines between, and the
shining is SO bright that the shad-
ows cannot remain, and silently
they creep away into the dark corn
ers, until the cheerful face is gone.
1t may be wrinkIed face, bu. IL
is all the dearer for that, and none
less bright. We linger near it, and
gaze tenderly upon it and say:
"God bless. the happy face" We
must keep it with us as long as we
can, for home will lose much of It's
brightness when the sweet face is
gone.
And after it has gone how the re-
membrance of it purifies and softens
our wayward naturel When care
and sorrow would snap our heart
strings asunder, this wrinkled face
looks down upon us, the painful
tension grows lighter, and the way
is less heavy. AS is the spirit, mind
and disposition, SO are the features.

A RadCase.

Once was assistant to an elderly
doctor in Ontario, who also ran a
drug store. He was as peppery
as a cayenne pod, and from time to
time customers and patients sprung
jokes on him just for the fun of
hearing him blow OFF. One occasion
a well dress young fellow called at
the shop and asked the doctor to
prescribe for breaking out and a
rash on his left arm. The doctor
examined the limb and pronounced
it to be bad case of psoriasis and
eczema.
aI suppose, doctor you can cure
it?" said the patient.
"Why, certainly" replied the
doctor.
aHow long will it takO to get
well2"
aoh, 1 guess about two months, .
said the doctor.
"Quite sure, sir-is it bad case?''
positively the worst I've seen. .
"Then will leave it with you
and call for it again when cured, y
solemnly said the patient, slowly
unfastening his arm, which was an
artificial one and painted for the
occasion.

In field apart two violets bloomed,
And over their heads the tall grass loomed.
And there came one day n frolicsome breezs

And catching a glimpse OF the world outside
They chaffed At the fate that had kept then
tied
To a nook obscure In \ gloomy dell
Where scarcely a drop of dew e'er fell.

And dropped its sorrowful head and pined.

The Law Of Happiness.

oFk Is nOI only tue Norman con-
dition of human existence, but it is
the law of happiness; for although
there are strains of happiness that
come to us by receptivity simply,
yet taking man comprehensively,
and human life at large, man is
happy in the proportion in which he
is developing his own powers. 1t is
what a man does more than what he
is receiving that makes him happy.
II is the evolution of mind forces,
in connection with the body, ad-
dressed TO worthy objects and at
tanning them. 1t is the sense OF
power in believing; it is the sense of
life in activity; it is the sense OF
God in man in the lower sphere,
creating or preparing to create-it
is this that is the secret of happi,
ness. The idea of most men is that
happiness is ecstacy; but ecstacy is
paroxysmal and unwholesome.
That happiness which is the most
wholesome and best for us is of a
low measure, and this happiness is
nowhere else so we'll obtained as
where man has rightly adjusted
labor, and that day by day. Nor
can we conceive how any man, un.
less he be laid aside by an ordi.
nance of Providence from direct
labor, can be happy, with sense OF
his dignity as spiritual being, and
with sense of his responsibility as
a worker with God, if he be not
an industrious man and an accomp-
Usher, or if he seeks happiness in
leisure.
"Twenty clerks in store, twenty
hands in printing Office, twenty
apprentices in ship yard, twenty
young men in town, all want to
get on in the world, and expect to
do so," says an old merchant.
"One OF the clerks will become
partner and make fortune; one of
the compositors will own a news
paper, and become an influential
citizen one of the apprentices will
become master builder; one of the
villagers will get handsome farm,
and live like patriarch-but which
one is the lucky Individual Luckyl
There is no luck about it. The
thing is almost as certain as the rule
of three. The young fellow who
will distance his competitors is he
who masters his business. who pre-
serves his integrity, who lives
cleanly and purely, who devotes his
leisure to the acquisition of knowl-
edge, who gains friends by deserv-
ing them, and who saves his spare
money. There are some ways to
fortune shorter than this dusty old
highway, but the staunch men OF
the community, the men who
achieve something really worth
having-good fortune, good name,
and serene old age, all-go in this
road"
