OIK IJAI5Y.
BY T. ADOLTIIUS SMITH.
I write as a son, as a husband, and as a
man of family. My subject i3 one of the
utmost importance to the married and
cliild-raisiufr community. I believe in
writing to the papers upon subjects of
family interest. It is a good thing.
Of course I have no sympathy in com
mon with the silly people who ask for all
sorts of information from the " family
newspaper." As, for instance, where "a
young man just in society" wants to know
what he is to do with his napkin when
he is invited out to a "swell" dinner
party and the editor tells him that he had
better take the " article in question" home
and have it washed. That is absurd, of
course !
fco, too, when a " miss in her teens"
confesses that she walks and flirts with a
married man every night and wants to
know if there is anything wrong about it.
That, of course, is ridiculous!
Or where "one just commenced life"
writes to know what business will make
him rich in three years, without any in
vestment of capital or expenditure of
labor on his part. He must be an ass!
I write upon n t such ridiculous mat
ters. Lut the object upon which I
scratch these l;w lines reaches every
father's heart ; irdas you answer it you
will cirryjoy to many ahousehold.
To come at it then we are married.
15y we I mean Iphigenia and I. I call
her "Pheegie" for short and as a pet
name. Uut mother doesn't believe in pet
names and calls her plain Iphigenia.
Mother lives with us. I think it is
quite an advantage. But somehow l'hee
gie don't seem to think so. I am the
youngest of seven sons. When lather
died and I was married my brothers said
that a3 they were older than I, and had
had more of dear mother's care, it would
be only fair to me to have mother spend
the rest of her life in my family. I
thought that it was real affectionate and
self-sacrificing on their part. But some
how l'heegie don't seem to think so.
Dear mother is very sensitive about
being in the way. If site says it once a
day she does a dozen times, that if we
feel she is trespassing in the little room
she occupies we have only to say so, and
Bhe will hnd a humble cot in some retired
spot and there pads her widowed days
1raying for the welfare of her children.
. think this is very touching and sweet
on her part. But somehow Pheegie don't
seem to think so. She says: "Suppose
we take her up some day how much cot
do j'ou suppose she would retire to?"
I don't like the sentiment. How could
I indorse it and have the assurance to look
for the length of days promised in the
filth commandment?
But this is not my subject. What I
want to ask you about is our baby. We
have got a baby. I mean Pheegie and I ;
and if it had not been for dear mother I
don't know how we could have got along.
Just as soon as the little thing was a
month old mother took it to sleep with
her. She declared that never would a
wink of 6leep come to her ej-elids if she
left that child for young and inexperi
enced parents to roll on and smother.
But when she took our little darling in
this tender way to her grandmaternal
bosom, dear mother said, in just so many
words, that if her affection lor the infant
was misconstrued, or if we grudged her
the playful caresses which the child
might inadvertently bestow upon her, we
had only to say as much, and she would
find a humble cot in some retired spot
and then pass her widowed days praying
for her beloved children and grandchil
dren. Pheegie said, 44 Oh, bother the hum
ble cot!" But I don't think my dear wife
understands mother. I thought there
was something very touching in this dis
play of a grandmamma's devotion. But
somehow l'heegie don't seem to think so.
As I said, however, we have got a baby.
He is a boy. He is also a very bright
child, indeed. For that matter the worthy
nurse told Pheegie that she did not know
as she had ever nursed a brighter young
one. Our own baby is six months old
now, and is very healthy. Dear mother
says that she don't exactly like the way
in which it shakes its head every now
and then. I think it is queer, too, for its
head certainly does shake at times with
out the slightest occasion for it. I some
times feel quite serious about it. But
l'heegie don't seem to feel so, and when I
said I thought I ought to speak to the
doctor about it she said that I might also
tell him that the child's toes wriggled
peculiarly. I didn't like her saying that,
and I noticed that dear mother didn't
laugh. I agree with Iter that God gives
us these precious wards to take care of.
l'heegie says that she supposes that God
also makes the precious ward's head
shake. There is something in that. But
1 wonder if Pheegie really loves the
child ? Mother often says that she hopes
she does.
We keep a nurse. She is a voting Irish
girl. I confess I don't like her mnch,
and I doubt whether she feels very deeply
for the child. Often and often the little
thing cries at nights, but never yet has
that girl come down to see what the mat
ter was. If she would only do so once
in a while, at least, It would De showing a
little interest in her charge.
But what I want to ask you is this :
What is the reason that doctors never
think that babies are sick? They never
do unless the poor little things are far
gone with scarlet fever, cerebrospinal
meningitis, or something dreadfully fatal.
Let the child be teething, or have colic,
or wind on its little stomach, or anything
of that kind, and doctors never seem to
feel interested in the patient's case. They
say that the little things will
outgrow
Now, that
it," or something of that sort.
is absurd.
I put it to you, Mr. Reader, as a man
of feeling. Suppose you had a pain in
your person and were really suffering a
great deal, and a doctor should come and
grin at you, chuck you under the chin,
pinch your legs, and say that you " would
come out all right," or " outgrow it," or
something of that kind ! Would you like
that? Of course you would not It would
not be natural.
Now I don't know why it should, but
our baby suffered a great deal from ab
dominal trouble. Mother thinks he in
herits it; she says that all her children
were that way. I think this a very satis
factory explanation. Why shouldn't a
child inherit things of that kind just the
eame as hair, teeth and things of that
eort? It looks reasonable to mother and
me. But somehow Pheegie don't seem to
think so.
But, upon my word, I have written so
much that I have but little space left to
tell you about a little matter in our own
baby's tender experience which illustrates
how little doctors care for other. people's
children. Mother says she thinks they
get hardened. But one would think they
wouldn't. I have been after the doctor
a good, deal for our own baby, but he
never eeems to come with alacrity.
Mothtr generally tells me when to go.
She thinks that one cannot show too
much care for a child it is such a grave
responsibility. I think so, too. But
somehow Pheegie don't always seem to
think so. I wonder if she really does love
our own baby? I spoke to mother about
it the other night, and she said she hoped
so, for it was an awful thing to throw
one's own child into the teeth of Provi
dence ; and I thought so, too.
But now I certainly must tell you what
happened the other night.
Our own baby was sick, and mother
wanted me to go for the doctor. Pheegie
didn't think there was any use in going
for him, but mother thought there was.
However, mother very frankly owned up
that the child was Iphigenia's. She said
that her solicitude sprang entirely and
only from love for the little one, but if
that affection was irksome to us we had
only to find her a humble cot in some re
tired spot, where she would pass her wid
owed days praying for her children and
their child, and thanking God that its
death did not lay at her door. Pheegie
rolled over in bed and said, " Oh ! good
gracious!" But I went out for the
doctor.
It was not a good night to go. It was
one of those freezykind of nights when
the rain becomes ice on the pavement. It
was real hard work to go for the doctor.
It was impossible to run. I tried to walk
fast, but 1 slid and slipped and slipped
and slid. And then I would manage to
catch hold of a fence, and my legs would
slide from under me, and I would find my
face in precisely the contrary direction
from that in which I wanted to go. i
tried the middle of the street, but it was
very little better, and when I tried to get
back to the pavement I thought I might
as well give up going. But, then! there
was our own baby perhaps at the point of
death, and I hastened, slipped up, and
hastened again.
It must have taken me a eooa hair-hour
to reach the doctor's house, and it only
hall a mile away from mine. However,
I got there at last and rang the bell. I
rang several times.
f inally somebody opened a window,
and a masculine voice wanted to know
who the mischief I was, and a feminine
voice wanted to know if I was " Horace."
I was amazed and bewildered. The tone
of the masculine voice was not familiar
to my ear, and I could hardly account for
the feminine voice, as the doctor is a
widower. But I nevertheless asked if the
doctor was at home. At that the mascu
line voice suggested that I had better ring
the doctor's iloor-bell and find out. It
certainly was very stupid of me to make
the mistake, but 1 was somewhat contused
after my difficult walk, and then I was
nervous as I thought of our own baby at
home.
However, I apologized and explained,
but while 1 was doing it the parties at the
window slammed it down. I did not feel
called upon to make any further explana
tion, but sprang up the doctor's steps and
pulled his bell.
They seemed to be sleeping pretty
soundly in that block, for I had to ring
four times before I roused the doctor. He
opened a second-story window at last,
and, alter suggesting tnat n l was trying
to pull off his bell-pull I had better say ro,
he asked who I was. The doctor is getting
old and peculiar; and then I don't sup
pose it is pleasant to be called upon to
answer a bell at two o'clock in the morn
ing. But, then, ain't he paid for it?
However, I overlooked the reference to
the bell-pull, and said that I was 44 me."
" 4 Me!' who the mischiefs me?" said
the doctor.
I supposed that he knew my voice; but
he alleged that he did not, and so I said
that " me" was Smith.
44 Smith ! what Smith ?" says the doctor.
Now that was absurd ! I know that
the name of Smith is reasonable common;
but the doctor needn't try to make out
that he has nobody but Smiths on hi3
list of patients.
However, I answered that I was 44 T.
Adolphus Smith." And how like a fool
I felt! Only think of having to holler
out 44 T. A.dolphus Smith!" at two o'clock
in the morning. I felt certain that some
body was listening at every window in
the block.
But the doctor, satisfied with whom I
was, then said :
44 Well, what do you want?" ;
From the way he 6aid it one might
think that he had been patiently waiting
up there and giving me a chance to tell.
But I didn't answer curtly. On the
contrary, I said : 44 The baby is sick !" !
44 What baby?" says he. Now, how ab
surd! As if I would go poking down
there at that hour, and through rain and
ice, for any baby but our own baby. But
I nevertheless replied, with perhaps a
touch of vexation in my tone, that the
baby under consideration was my own
bby.
44 What is the matter with it?" says he.
Now I began to wish that he would
come down stairs to the door. I didn't
want to be hollering out what was the
matter with our own baby so that the
whole neighborhood could be informed
as to its ailments. And just then a po
liceman came along, stood in front of the
house, and looked at me as though he
felt sure I contemplated burglary. Peo
ple are so apt, you know, to stand at the
front door, and ring the bell, when their
designs are burglarious.
As a matter of precautionary explana
tion, but perhaps injudiciously, I said to
the aforesaid policeman that I was 44 all
right." And then he said "What!" and
then the doctor said : 44 What!" And the
policeman, who evidently didn't see the
doctor, said : 44 What the dickens are you
talking about?" And then I said to the
policeman that 44 1 said I was all right."
And then he wanted to know 44 who said I
wasn't?"
It was getting dreadfully mixed up.
But just then the doctor, who evidently
saw the policeman, hallooed : Go about
your business!" The policeman evident
ly saw the doctor, and 44 moved on," after
first striking the lamp-post a most un
necessary blow with his club.
But I thought that the doctor had ad
dressed his last remark to me, and, being
pretty well worked up by this time, I said :
44 'ot at all, sir ! - I have told you that
our own baby is sick and needs your
professional attention !"
44 Well," says he, 44 haven't I been try
ing to make you tell what is the matter
with it?"
I saw I had made a mistake, and so
I said :
44 Oh," says I, "I thought you were
speakine to me."
44 Well, for Heaven's sake, ain't I speak
ing to j'ou?" said, or rather roared, the
doctor.
44 The baby is sick," says I. 44 Its little
stomach kind of sticks out, and mother
says she thinks she feels a lump inside
44 His what does what, and who feels
which?" roared the doctor.
How stupid! 44 Its stomach sticks out,"
says I; and then I heard that confounded
policeman laughing.
44 Sticks out where?" says the doctor.
Now who would suppose that man was
a doctor!
44 Why, in front, to be sure !" says I :
44 and when I press it hard the little thing
wages up and cries."
What the deuce do you press it for,
then?" says the doctor.
And then I heard that policeman laugh
again. A matter of life or death seemed
to amuse him.
But by this time I had lost all patience,
and so, with considerable vehemence, I
said : "Doctor, our own baby is very ill !
Will you be kind enough to come to the
door?"
At that he slammed down the window.
I remained some minutes at the door,
and then heard the doctor's heavy tread
in the hall. By this time I had recovered
my tern per and was prepared to meet my
own medical friend very pleasantly.
' As soon, therefore, as he opened the
door I said :
4 Ah! how are you, doctor?"
If he made any answer at all I did not
catch it.
"As I was saying," says I, 44 about our
own baby, its little stomach sticks out,
and mother thinks "
While I had been sajiDg this the doc
tor, acting as though he was the only in
dividual on the stoop, and apparently
without seeing me, and even less hearing
me, had slammed the front door and
turned to go down the steps.
But unfortunately he had shut his coat
flap into the door, whereupon he turned
around, glared fiercely at me, 6aid,44 There,
then, you see !" and proceeded to find his
night-key.
I really could not see the force of his
remark. I was not responsible certainly
for the trifling inconvenience to which
he had been subjected.
The coat-tail extricated, the doctor ran
down the steps. In my confusion I had
forgotten to tell him of the ice-covered
pavement, and the next thing I saw was
the doctor, with legs wide spread apart,
sliding toward the gutter. He saved
himself from falling by jumping into a
snow-bank.
Again he turned upon me, and again
rid himself of the ridulous ejaculation,
44 There, then, you see !"
How perfectly absurd ! There was no
sense in it. Suppose I did sec. What
then ? How could I help it?
With my usual forgiving disposition,
however, I ventui ed to offer the doctor
my arm. But all he said was something
about 44 a plaguy sight! 44I did not appre
hend the whole of the sentence.
We then walked along each by him
self, as best he ould. At last I thought
that, inasmuch as I had gotten the doctor
out at that unseemly hour, it was onlv
fair that I should make his difficult walk
as pleasant as possible, and so I essayed
to converse with him.
Thinking that he might be willing to
discuss topics of national interest, I said
" What do you think of the Carpenter
bill?"
44 Whose carpenter bill?" said he.
44 Why, his, to be sure," said I.
44 Very well; who is Jdst I didn't
catch the name! I suppose I am not to
blame for that, young man!" replied my
certainly not over good-natured friend.
44 If," continued he, "you or anybody
else owed a carpenter's bill I should ad
vise you to pay it. As for its correctness,
how the mischief can I form an opinion?"
I deemed it wise to drop issues of na
tional interest, and ventured to try a new
topic.
44 What will this woman's movement
amount to?" said I.
44 Who is the woman? What is the
matter with her?" said the doctor.
Now, how very stupid! Could not
any intelligent person know that was
alluding to the great temperance crusade?
At this point the doctor fell again,
sprawling over the pavement. I picked
him up, and we tried the middle of the
street as somewhat safer.
After giving the doctor time to recover
his temper, I ventured once more upon
conversation. I certainly wanted to break
a silence which was very tedious and un
pleasant. 44 That Bismarck is engaged in a great
work," said I. 44 When man once puts
church against State his finite intelligence
can never predict what the end will be."
44 Who told you to come after me to
night?" said the doctor, by way of reply.
I could hardly see what our own baby
had to do with the ecclesiastical commo
tion in Europe. I think that I judged
correctly in thinking that the doctor did
not care to converse further on that sub
ject- .
44 Dear mother sent me," said 1, 44 and 1
am afraid she regards tne case as a crit
ical one."
"Humph!" said the doctor. "How
long is that mother of yours going to live
in your family? '
1 his nettled me somewhat, laid not
like that "that" saying; "that mother"
evidently implied something more than
was disclosed.
However, I said, 44 Of course, sir, my
dear mother is welcome to a place by my
fireside as long as she see best to occupy
it. She will leave the moment she thinks
we wisn her to do so. one has often said
that whenever we become tired of her we
have only to find her a humble cot in some
retired spot "
ITart that Vilw rioon cirlr rlnrinar tTifi
day?" said the doctor, without giving mel
a chance to finish my sentence.
That baby! Still another onensive
44 that!" But I was patient, and replied:
" rio, sir! Our own baby woke up with
the peculiar sticking out of the stomach
to which I have referred."
Fortunately, at this point we reached
my door-step.
" llere we are," said 1, with a cheer
fulness that was somewhat forced. Those
44 thats" still burned in my memory; and
then in a few moments competent medical
opinion was to decide whether our own
baby was as seriously sick as I feared.
As luck would have it, I had forcrotten
my night-key. I had, of course, to ring
the bell. 1 did so, and then again, and
then thrice, and even four times. I did
not pull hard for fear of exciting or start
ling our own sick baby.
Suddenly the doctor caught hold of the
bell-pull and jerked it as though he was
afraid somebody was going to run away
with the other end of the wire.
Soon a window was opened, and I
heard dear mother's voice :
44 Who is that?" says she.
44 It is me," says I.
44 Who is that ?" says she.
44 It is me, dear mother," says I.
44 Is that you, T. Adolphus?" says she.
44 Yes, dear mother," says I.
44Wrhereis your nightrkey?" says she.
44 In my breeches pocket, dear mother,"
saj's 1.
44 Would you like to be let in?" says
she.
44 Why, of course, dear mother," says I.
44 There are two of you," says she.
"Yes, of course," says I.
44 Who is the other?" says she.
44 Why, the doctor, dear mother," says I.
"Oh! I had forgotten," says "she.
44 Thank God, there is no present need for
his services."
You cannot think how my heart thrilled
with joy as dear mother made this an
nouncement. "Doctor!" said I, grasping his hand,
44 our own dear baby is better!"
All he did was to pull away his hand
and make some reference to the infernal
regions and future punishment, I really
think he was disappointed at not finding
our own dear baby in its last gasp.
Just then the door opened and there
stood Pheegie in her beautiful blue wrap
per. She always looks sweetly in that
wrapper.
I kissed her forehead and whispered
44 Our child!"
44 Don't be a fool !" said she. 44 It is
too bad to have kept you on the step so
long. And, doctor, I am sorry, really
sorry that you should have been brought
up here this dreadful night."
44 But our child," said I.
44 It's sleeping sweetly," said she.
"And its little stomach " said I.
4 Nonsense !" said she ; 44 there has been
nothing the matter with its stomach."
44 Ah, indeed! Iphegenia!" said dear
mother from the top of the stairs, 44 per
haps my intense love for my own child's
own otlspring may have exaggerated the
actualities of its abdominal ailments.
Perhaps I am a burden here! If so, Titus
Adolphus, you have only to find me a
humble cot in some retired spot and there
I will pass my days "
"Oh, good Heavens!" said Pheegie.
Before dear mother had finished her
sentence the doctor had gone out and
slammed the door with a tremendous
noise. Immediately I heard him falling
down the ice-covered steps. I sprang to
the door and asked if he was hurt. He
picked himself up and walked off without
reply.
The next day he sent in his bill.
That was curious, as I thought, for I had
paid him in full only eight months be
fore. Pheegie says that he, of course, intends
me to see that he does not want my
patronage.
Dear mother very truly says that 44 the
issues of life and death are not for man's
will to determine."
I think that a very appropriate remark.
But somehow Pheegie don't seem to think
so.
But here I come back to my original
proposition :
Why is it that doctors are so loth to
believe that babies are sick?
Why is it that they show so little
alacrity in flying to the infant cradle
side? N. T. Graphic. .

USEFUL AND SUGGESTIVE.
An effective remedy for croup is said
to be half a teaspoonful of pulverized
alum in a little treacle or molasses. One
dose seldom fails to give relief.
The Itch. The following is a simple
remedy for the itch : One ounce of lard
and a teaspoonful of sulphuric acid. Mix
well. Apply a little every day.
Mcctlagk. Take the gum that exudes
from the peach tree, put in a phial and
add equal parts of water and alcohol till
of the right consistence. This is cheap
and good, and easily obtained by any one
having peach trees."
Is Belgium and Holland linen is pre
pared beautifully, because the washer
women use refined borax, instead of soda,
as a washing powder. One large handful
of borax is used to every ten gallons of
water, and the saving of soap is said to
be one-half. For laces and cambrics an
extra quantity is used. Borax does not
injure the linen, and softens the hardest
water. A teaspoonful of borax added to
an ordinary-sized kettle of hard water, in
which it is allowed to boil, will effectual
ly soften the water.
Here is an excellent recipe for making
genuine erasive soap that will remove
grease and stains from clothing: Two
pounds of good castile soap ; half a pound
of carbonate of potash dissolved in half
a pint of hot water. Cut the soap in thin
slices ; boil the soap with the potash until
it is thick enough to mold in cakes; also
add alcohol, half an ounce; camphor,
half an ounce; hartshorn, half an ounce;
color m ith half an ounce of pulverized
charcoal.
For Lunch or a Relish for Tea.
Take one or two chickens, boil in a small
quantity of water, when thoroughly done
remove the skin. Then take all the meat
from the bones, keeping the light and
dark separate, chop, and salt to taste. If
jou have a meat-presser take it or any
other mold, put in a layer of light then
a layer f dark meat till the supply
is exhausted, add a little of the liquor it
was boiled in. Press. When cold cut in
slices. It makes a delicious sandwich
for a journey or picnic.
Hard Soap. Take hard wood ashes and
run off lye; when it will eat a feather
when boiling add any kind of grease, and
boil until thick; then to twenty gallons of
soap stir in one gallon of salt; do not let
it boil after the salt is put in. I make
two kettles ; then melt the two together,
adding lye enough to melt it; when it
boils add another quart of salt ; let it stand
over night; then cut out in pieces to suit
taste. This is another way for those who
have no ashes: Three pounds of soda ash,
two pounds un&lacked lime; boil in three
gallons rain water, kt it settle, then pour
off; add nine pounds of grease and boil
three hours.
Queen's Cake. One pound of flour,
one of sugar, half a pound of butter (that
which has lain in a jar of rose leaves is
best), five eggs, a gill of wine, a gill of
cream, a nutmeg, half a teaspoonful of
saleratus, two pounds of currants or
chopped raisins. Stir the butter and
sugar to a cream, beat the whites and
yolks of the eggs separately, and after
they and the flour are also mixed with it
warm the cream and wine together and
add them, then the saleratus, and last the
fruit. Frost it, or sift fine sugar over the
top just before it is put into the oven.
Soft Soap with Potash. Excellent
soap may be made by the following reci
pe. Use a pine barrel, for a hard-wood
barrel will warp and leak. An old fish
barrel is commonly taken for the purpose.
Put in ten to twelve pounds of potash and
throw upon it two pailfuls of boiling
water. Let it digest awhile, and then put
in two pounds of grease to each pound of
potash. Have the grease hot. Let that
digest awhile, then add a third pailful of
hot water. Keep doing this until the bar
rel is within six inches of being full.
Stir occasionally until the whole is mixed.
It should stand three months before use.
Stir occasionally during the first week.
The longer it stands after making the bet
ter the soap.
Cement for Porcelain. Perhaps the
best material for joining broken porcelain
is the familiar household cement formed
of white of egg (or cheese) and quick
lime. We give, however, one other : Two
parts of isinglass are soaked in water un
til well swollen ; the water Is then poured
off and the isinglass is dissolved in alco
hol, by the aid of heat. One part of mas
tic is then dissolved in three parts of al
cohol and added to the above solution;
then one part of gum ammoniacum. The
solution is well shaken and evaporated to
the consistency of strong glue, when it
solidifies on cooling. For use, the cement

The Lawn and Home Grounds.
Those of our readers who have a lawn !
shaded with trees about their house and !
those who have not should have ought
not to neglect raking away the leaves and
other trash that may have accumulated
during the winter. Those who have neg
lected to keep the grass cut short in the
fall will find their spring raking an oner
ous job. Besides the greater difficulty in
getting together the leaves and other
trash that are sure to accumulate, there is
the added objection that the greenness of
the grass will not show until it has ac
quired sufficient height to overtop the
dead foliage remaining.
When the lawn is of considerable ex
tent, it will pay to buy a one-horse lawn
mower, for with this the lawn can easily
be gone over early in the morning while
yet the dew is on. If small the hand
machine will answer as well. When the
lawn is of large extent those portions re
mote from the house may be mown with
an ordinary mowing machine if set to cut
close. This cutting should be done at not
longer intervals than two weeks. In rak
ing up the accumulated trash of winter,
it is best performed when the leaves, etc ,
are somewhat damp; at all events H
should be done when the weather is mild
It used to be considered necess ary, in
order to have a good lawn, that the sur
face should be kept sheared close to the
earth, but under this system, it is impos
sible to keep a permanent turf unless
there are facilities for artificial water
ings. From one to two inches is close
enough to mow, and this can be easily
accomplished with any of the ordinary
mowing machines where the surface is
large enough and open enough to allow
its work. This may easily be accom
plished on a lawn of an acre in extent, if
not too much occupied with shrubbery
and trees.
One of the great mistakes made in or
namenting both suburban and farm
houses is the planting of an excessive
number of trees, which, as they acquire
age, not only shut out the view entirely,
but also often render the place absolutely
unhealthy. Trees on the lawn should be
used only for ornament and necessary
shade. Shrubbery may be planted at the
turns of the roadways and walks, to in
crease and heighten the effect, but, in do
.ing all this, a full view of the house and
other salient points of the country be
yond should not be obstructed. To se
cure these requisites of light and shade,
there should be ample space between the
trees and clumps for air and sunlight. If
this be attended to, each tree or clump
will have ample space for development,
and thus not only create a grateful shade
but enhance the beauty of the surround
ings. Therefore, if you have planted too
thickly, see to it that the thinning be done
in such season as to secure ample foliage
and, at the same time, a fair view beyond.
If it take some study, it will be amply re
paid. Western Rural.
Don't Tamper with a Codgh. Perhaps in
the whole category of diseases to which hu
manity Is susceptible, the cough is most neg
lected in its early stage. A simple cough
generally regarded as a temporary affliction is
unpleasant and nothing more; but to those
who have paid dearly for experience, it is the
signal for attack for the most fearful of all
diseases Consumption. A cough will lead to
consumption if not checked so sure as the
rivulet leads to the river, yet it is an easy ene
my to thwart, if met by the proper remedy.
Allen' Lung Balsam is the great cough rem
edy of the age, and has earned its reputation
by merit alone. Bold by all good druggists.

The Invalid A Pen Picture.
See her pallid countenance, but a hort time
ago the picture of ruddy health, the envy of
the school and the pride of the household.
She was always welcomed by her schoolmates,
for her lithe form and pleasing disposition
carried cheerfulness into their ranks. Dili
gent, punctual and exemplary, obedient and
graceful at home, she won the hearts of all.
But alas ! we are sorrowed. Those" rosy
checks and ruddy lips are blanched by Con
sumption. The voice once so enchanting in
laugh and song is feeble, hutky and sup
planted by a hollow cough. Let us approach
her couch gently and take her hand. Do not
shudder because of the feeble and passionless
grasp. The hand once so hearty and plump
is emaciated and chows bony outlines, while
the cords and tortuous veins are plainly
mapped upon the surface. The pulse that
bounded with repletion, carrying vigor to
the whole system, and imparting life, beauty,
vivacity, health and strength, is delicate to
the touch. The feeble heart cannot propel
the thin,- scanty blood with force. Must
we lose her while yet in her teens?
Companions and friends gather around
with words of cheer and consolation, and
depart with moistened eyes and silent
steps. Mast we lose her? No! there Is relief !
We can stay this destroyer of our happiness
and not suffer the loss of so bright a gem.
Somethiug more is required now than dietary
and hygienic observance, for nature calls for
aid and she shall have it. Take this pleasant
medicine. It ia invigorating. How it allays
the irritable cough, improves the appetite and
digestion, and sends a healthy tingle through
the frame. The blood is enriched, nervous
force increased, and the heart bounds with a
new impulse. See her face brighten by
degrees; the color is returning, her voice is
getting clearer, and pleasaut words are
spoken. The strength falters yet, . but is
gaining. Let us take her out in the warm
sunshine. In a Ghort time she will be able
to go out without our aid, a cheerful girl.
This delightful medicine must be God-bleseed.
It is restoring health to our loved one. She
is emerging from her sickness sweeter and
nobler than before, and Dr. Fierce's tiolden
Medical Discovery must have the credit. It
has raised her.
S. K. Eglar, druggist, of West Union,
Ohio, says that Dr. Fierce's Golden Medical
Discovery has effected a wonderful cure of
Consumption in his neighborhood.
Vinegar Bitters. The great merit of
Vinegar Bitters has made them the
leading medicine of the day, and respect
able druggists everywhere write : " They
are tlie best and moat popular vreparation
in the market." They have stood the test
of public opinion and won confidence.
They sell rapidly because they cure. If
vou are sick you want reliable medicine.
Vinegar Bitters commend themselves
to the ailing and afflicted, as they are de
ficient in one thing alone, viz.: the stimu
lant that unduly excites the brain and
creates a morbid thirst for spirits ! There
is no phase of Indigestion, Biliousness,
Nervous Disease or Physical Debility in
which they will not effect a cure. Inva
lids who are wasting away from a want
of proper action in the liver, stomach and
bowels will find them a constitutional
specific, and a fountain of vitality and
vigor as refreshing and exhilarating as a
cool, gushing spring of water to the
parched aud fainting traveler in the
desert. 41

Nature's Great Remedy
FOR ALIt
THROAT and LUNG
DISEASES ! !
It is the vital principle of the Tine Tree, obtained
by a peculiar process in the distillation of the tar, by
which its highest medicinal properties are reUiineii.
Tar even in its crude state has been recommended by
eminent physicians of every school. It is confidently
offered to the afflicted for the following simple reasons:
I. It cures, Hot by abruptly stopping the cough
but by dissolving the phlegm and assisting nature to
throw off the unhealthy matter causing the irritation.
In cases of seated consumption it both prolongs and
renders less burdensome the life of the afflicted sutTerer.
. Its healing principle acts upon the irritated sur.
face of the lungs, penetrating to each diseased part,
relieving pain, and subduing inflammation.
3. It purifies and enriches tub blood. Positive
ly curing all humors, from the common pimple or
kruption to the severest cases of Scrofula. Thousands
of affidavits could be produced from those who have
felt the beneficial effects of Pine Tkce Tar Cordial
in the various diseases arising from impurities of
TUB BLOOD.
4. It invigorates the digestive organs and restores
the appetite.
