THE BEST REMEDY FOR RHEUMA
TISM

From the Fairhaven IN. ~ Register.
Mr. James Rowland, of this village,
states that for twenty. five years his wife
has been Il sufferer from Rheumatism. A
few nights ago she was in such pain that
she was nearly crazy. She sent Mr. Row
land for the doctor, but he had read OF
Chamberlan's Pain Balm and instead of
going for physician he went to the store
and secured II bottle of it. His wife did
not approve of Mr.. Rowland's purchase
ut first, but nevertheless applied the
Balm thoroughly and in an hours time
was able to 90 to sleep. She now applies
it whenever she feels an ache or pain
and finds that it always gives relief He
says that no medicine which she had ever
used did her rs much good. The % and

Attacked by Spiders.

John Held. St Lotus clerk, had an exciting adventure with three gigantic spiders and as a result his face is swollen to nearly twice it's natural size.
 Held repaired to a wash basin in the celler of his store to preform his morning ablutions. While busily en- gagged scrubbing his face three large spiders put in an appearance from an aperture in the wall above him. Held, on looking up saw the insects, but thought nothing about them as spiders
  were common in the cellar
 Suddenly one of the insects sprang directly in Helds face. Before he could recover the other two followed the leader Held fought the insects off, but not until he was severely bit ten number of times He killed one of the spiders, the other two escaped.

Fruit Growing.
ntribnte1l.


 1n the routine of cultivation-and it is ali delightful-there is no depart uent more pleasing or artful than fruit growing, and our advantages in this country for it's production are xaried and extensive. With due at fention we can have great variety of tie most delicious fruits; and the trees xyith their bloom, luxurant foliage and rich growing crop are among the
 most ornamental scenery. Everyone who has a spot of land should raise fruit that he may have it fresh from the trees, for in no way will it yield more profit for his own purse, for where there is a good market it is proftable for that purpose.
 Many object to the long delay of trees in bearing, but skill will remedy that evil. Teach children the art and science of horticulture and pomology, and you will improve and axalt them. You will train them up in the way they should go and spread around home the strongest endearments of Social life to which the memory will Fling with the fondest recollections while breath they draw. Every tree 3fs a preacher in the cause of temper sance, morality, religion and philanth- ropv, for the true science of fruits and sthe beauty of their attendant scenery Furnishes an eden where one may sit. s,nder his own vine and fig tree with hone to molest and no serpent to be- Npuile. but with an Eve as last best &gift and perhaps cherubs gamboling M his Elysian ground as so many multiplied existences of Heaven. Every specie of fruits and plants requires particular soil in which 1t fiourishes best, requires less fertilizing and culture and produces better fruit than in soil less congenial Yet so different are the various species that almost every soil from the peat bog to the sand plain is adapted to some lund. and all intermediate soils be- tween these wide expenses are adapt cd to several species. When the tree is not adapted to soil the soil should be adapted to the tree. Like the ac-
 commodating justice who would bring l the jaw to the case when his good
 friend, the lawyer, could not bring tha case to the law. w. H. Nj.

AMOUNT OF SLEEP REQUIRED.


 Insufficient Rest Produces Lamentable
 Condition.
 A healthy infant sleeps most of the time during the first few weeks, and in the early years people are disposed to let children sleep as they will. But when six or seven years old, when school begins, this sensible policy comes to an end, and sleep is put off persist ently through all the years up to man. hood and womanhood. At the age of ten or eleven the child is allowed to sleep only eight or nine hours, when it's parents should insist on it's having what 1t absolutely needs, which is ten or eleven at least. Up to 20 youth needs nine hours sleep, and an adult should have eight. Insufficient sleep is one of the crying evils of the day. The want of proper rest and normal condi- tions of the nervous system, and es- peciallv the brain, produces lamenfa- ble condition. deterioration in both body and mind, and exhaustion, sxcita- bility and intellectual disorders are gradually talsine the place of the love of work. general weii-being and the snirit of initiative" ."--N.
