Life-saVins Work.

Lite-SaNing Work.
The stars in their courses condemn
the idle woman. The quiet forces OF
nature reproach almost as severely
the woman who voluntarily overworks
and thus makes herself a hindrance
Instead of a help in the busy world.
The keenest impression left by Prof.
Palmer's noble biography of his wife,
Alice Freeman Palmer, is that OF her
wonderful skill in adapting her work
20 her strength, and in finding
strength for all important work. says
the Youths Companion. She always
scoffed at the idea of saving herself" !"
She saw clearly that a womans vigor
is not like a cistern, containing so
much water, but rather like a spring,
flowing for human need, and to be
guarded at its source, not at its mouth.
Says Prof. Palmer: IF there is any
one lesson which Mrs Palmer's life
preeminently teaches, it is the life.pre.
serving influence of persistent, severe
and judiciously managed labor" She
experienced every sort of demand
which may be made on a woman, ex-
cept, perhaps, that of monotonous toll
at some long-continued drudgery. Even
that, one can fancy she would have
irradiated by her JOY in every human
relation. In her varied and exacting
life she steadily built up her physical
strength. Her power of physical en-
durance, not great in girlhood, in.
creased as her judgment ripened.
She believed continuous work to be
conducive to health, and proved it so
by practice" her husband testifes.
She died of an acute disease, which
could not have been foreseen or pre-.
vented, but her too short life is a glo
rious witness to the value of a sound |
mind in sound body

HoweIls on the Wicked Rich.

Riches" writes William Dean How.
ellis in a whimsical mood, riches in
another is having a good deal more
than you have. Economy" ne contin-
ues, with chuckling satire, lis trim
ming your own hats sometimes, and
giving up all your clubs but the one
you like best. AS for charity, If you're
poor, it's plain case. You can't do
this or that good action; you haven't
got the money. But the rich never can
say they can't afford to do it, so they
have bad conscience, and nothing is
so depraving as bad conscience, and

HOT ONIONS FoR PNEUMONIA.
Dread Disease Robbed Of Its Terrors
by Simple Remedy.

Owing to the prevalence Of pneu-
monia and the great mortality which
attends its ravages during the winter
and spring, several boards of health
in northern New Jersey have been TAX
ing measures to protect the citizens Of
their towns from the disease. The
health board of Washington, N. j., has
published a remedy which is said to
be a sure cure for pneumonia, and
other health boards are looking into
the matter with view of having the
same thing published for the good of
the general public. This is the pub
lication as 1t has appeared in the pa
pers Of Washington:
Take six or ten onions, according
to size, and chop fine, put in large
spider over hot fire, then add the
same quantity of rye meal and vine
gar enough to form a thick paste. In
the meanwhile stir it thoroughly, let
ting it simmer FIVE or ten minutes.
Then put in cotton bag large enough
to cover the lungs and apply to chest
as hot as patient can bear. In about
ten minutes apply another, and thus
continue by reheating the poultices,
and in a few hours the patient will be
out Of danger. This simple remedy
has never failed to cure this too-often
fatal malady. Usually three or four
applications will be sufficient, but con-
tinue always until the perspiratiOn
starts freely from the chest. This rem
edy was formulated many years ago.
by one of the best physicians New
has ever known, who never
lost patient by the disease, and won
his renown by simple remedies"
