Judge s. gave his son a thousand dollars,


telling him to 60 to college and graduate. The


son returned at the end Of Freshmen year with


out dollar and with several ugly habits


About the close of vacation, the judge said to his


son, "Well William, are you going TO college


this year 2"


! 'Have no money father"


"But gave you thousand dollars TO gradu-


ate on"


cts all gone, father


| every we'll, my son it was all could give


you. You can't stay here you must now pay


your own way in the world"
| a new light broke in upon the vision OF The as


tonished young man. He Accommodated himself
| to the situation left home, made his way to
college, graduated at the head Of the class stud-
| ed law, became Governor of the State of New
York, entered the Cabinet OF the President OF the
| United States, and has made record for himself
that will not soon die, being none other than
| William H. Seward.


81 want no more money said gentleman,
the other day, who had retired from business, on
| the application of friend to join in what prom
ised to be profitable investment In answer TO
look of surprise, he continued III have three
sons gave them all classical educations. One
became a merchant another lawyer, and the
third a physician gave them all 'a,r STAR, a,
and they have come home to live on me. The
doctor had no patients, the lawyer no clients and
the merchant no customers. They say TO me,
sFather it's no use to work YOU have plenty
of money, and we will have more than we can
spend ; why should we be The slaves OF business =
Why now, should want more money What
have has made my sons useless to themselves,
useless to society and 10 the world Had they
been compelled, as was, to start out in life on
nothing and ''padde their own canoe, they
| might have been credit to themselves an to

The more ,hriftless child is helped, the more
he looks for it, and the more he has 10 be helped
after AS it is in the moral world, so it is in the
physical as pretain'ug 10 lbe health OF our hodies
and millions die prematurely from not recogn!z-
ing this principle in reference to bodily habits
and functions.


The more nature. is helped the more she has 10
be helped. If stimulus is taken at given hour
every day it will not be week before there will
be felt want Of that stimulus abou, the regular
hour, and very decided bodily discomfort il 'he
artificial want is not satisfied In this way mil
lions are made object slaves for life to the use Of
tobacco, tea, coffee, spirits, and opium. I'm
healthful ndulgences come upon us In the same
way II one goes to sleep to-day at any hour,
and is not specially busy Tomorrow, he will feel
inclined to take nap, and soon he can NOT do
without it with nyconvenience


If, in medicine, tonic is taken fer few days,
to increase the appe,ite, or dGeslion, the system
seems to look Tor ii and as an tonics contain
alcohol, multiludes become neeessary to that
regulation, and the man & 16omed TO make an
aPothecary's shop e hInI p the remainder of
his life.


If the nostrils are dry and you snuff water up
into them for this or any other cause, nature
soon ceases to prepare the proper lubricant, and
troublesome habit is soon formed, which some
times drives the disease down into the lungs
|. If the hair is CREASED to make 1t look glossy
for specific occasion, in short time it must be
repeated The grease runs down to the roots OF
the hair, or scalp, and carries with 1t the dust
which is always falling on the head, soon forming
q cement which closes the pores of the scalp, pre-
vents the healthful flow of the fluids which are
intended to keep each healthful, plant and soft
leaves it to become dry, harsh, imperfeetly
nourished, dead. The tons OF beautiful hair now
worn, grew on the heads of the young girls OF
Normandy, who keep their hair covered with
handkerchief, and by no possibility ever allow
anything to be put on it, not even water. 1t is
vigorous health, with some constitutional aid,
which gives their wealth Of hair, requiring no
dressing whatever. We destroy it by torturing
it, straning it against its natural direction, curl
ing it, frizzling it, and keeping bed OF grease
and dust around its roots which impedes the
flow of natural nourishment TO it, causes il TO die
and fall out before our daughters have reached
womanhood, ard too often before they have left
their teens.


In the preservation of our health let us rely
more on nature take time first, and if that does
not do, consult physician but instead OF TAX
ing medicine for every little, triaing thing TO help
you into health, throw nature on her own re-
sources, and let her help herself. And as for your
children let them feel, however much money
you have, that it will pass to them only when
they have shown that they can help themselves
nal Of Health.
