TAUT IV.
Fifteen years ago there was a no
table meeting in the city of London,
England, composed of some of the
wealthiest and most cultured men
in the realm. This convention
marked one of the greatest triumphs
of Homeopathy. These men cared
not a farthing for Allopathy or
ft Homeopathy as snch, their object

speculation. It was a meeting of
the officers and directors of the
General Life Insurance Company of
London. They had heard and 'seen
so much of the wonders of HOmeop
athy, that they concluded to insure
the adherents of Homeopathy at
greatly reduced rates, on the ground
that a person's life is much safer
under Homeopathy than under the
Old School treatment.
The same thing is done by a Life
Insurance Co. in New York. Their
mortuary experience from 18GS till
1879 Is as follows :
Of the Homeopathic risks there
xcas 1 death in 71. Of the non
Homeopathic 1 death in 271
These figures tell a tale so plainly,
that the wayfaring man, though a
fool, need not err therein.
Tho same Co. has made tho fol
lowing extract from the Board of
Health Reports in the citieB of
Brooklyn and Philadelphia. The
dcathrates compare thus in the dis

Not long ago I heard an Eclectic
doctor say: "It caunot bo proven
that infinitesimals cure, because the
patient might have got well any
how." It would really be sufficient to say
in reply: "Young man, test it first
by a fair trial, and then presume to
make remarks on the subject." But
wc will relate a few cases in point.
Ten years ago I was a student in
the Senior Class at Tiffin, Ohio.
Having some leisure hours during
this last year at college, and there
being a family inclination to medi
cine (three brothers are druggists,
and I remember amusing myself,
when a boy of twelve yearB, in
translating Culler's Physiology into
German) I procured some medical
works (Old School) and was read
ing them, when a brother of mine, a
minister in Indiana, stopped a few
days in Tiffin on his way to the
Synod in Cleveland. "We spent
several days visiting our friends,
and one day about 12 o'clock at noon
came to the house of Mr. Nyman, of
the firm of Loomis & Nyman, steam
engine manufacturers. As we en
tered the door, two men stood there,
just about to leave, -aud one of them
was 6aying : "Well, Mrs. Nyman, I
am very sorry, but I must acknowl
edge, that we have exhausted our
medical skill, without doing your
child any good, good bye." The
speaker was Dr.Gibson (Old School),
the family physician. "When they
had gone, and Mrs. N. had entered
for a moment into the other room,
my brother, viewing the sick child,
said to me: "Charles, I believe I
can cure that child in a short time."
This was the first I kuew of my
brother's "peddling sugar pills," be
sides preaching the gospel. The
symptoms of sickness were: High
fever, violent headache, great pros
tration aud a stifl neck. These
symptoms had been getting steadily
worse for a week past, and the little
sufferer was continually stressing the
palm of her hand against her fore
head. You could pull her hand
down, and immediately she would
put it back. Mrs. N. consented to
lot mj brother try his sugar pills.
He put two or three pellets in a
tumbler of water, and as many in
another tumbler, anddirccted Mrs.
N. to give a tcaspoouful alternately
every 15 minutes.
"We then left, to take dinner at
Rev. Fenneman's. After dinner,
perhaps two hours after giving the
medicine, wc returned to see our
little patient. As we entered, her
hand was down, her fever was. gone,
her general condition was evidently
much improved, and in a day or two
more she was well. The cure was
so positive, so brilliant, that Mrs.
N. declared, uo one but my brother
should be their doctor, if ho wonld
move to Tiffin. Aud on Dr. Gibson
this case had the effect of converting
him from the midnight darkness of
the old practice to the beauty and
light of Homeopathy.
The pellets dissolved in water were
the 20th centesimal potency I
If this were an isolated case, it
would prove little or nothing; but
It is not tho same thing happens a
thousand times every day, all over
the civilized world.
I need not add, that this set me to
thinking, and from that time (ten
,years) till to-day I have been ad
v&Bcing step by step out of the Old
School Empyricism and vnlgar big
ness, to the beautiful and harmo
nious simplicity of the new medical
gospel, first expounded by the im
mortal Hahnemann.

r "Silence ICielde.
Words spoken in season are of the
greatest value; but now and then,
even with our best and dearest,
there come seasons when tho gift of
silence is far more.t'o be desired than
the most royal gift-of eloquence.
With .almost every one there will
arise something that tempts to dis
pute ; when to refrain from a reply
would be the better a9 well as the
harder way, when even "a soft ans
wer" has not half the power of per
fect silence.
With the ignorant and passionate
it is not only useless, but the wildest
folry to dispute. We doubt if Sol
omon, with all his wisdom, was in
the most trustworthy state of mind
when he advised to "answer a fool
according to Ms folly." With great
self-control sensible people may
dispute or disagree over points of
interest, and yet not forgot the laws
of kindness and common sense. Bnt
to attempt to answer "a fool accord
ing to his folly" is to descend to his
level.
In the household there are many
things which demand forbearance
and a good stock of patieuce. In a
large family hardly an hour goes by
but little shadows cross the horizon
which a trifling irritation might
change into dark clouds, threatening
a storm, yet by "setting a watch
over the door of the mouth," they
pass over without a falling shower.
Tho wife more than any one,
should have full possession of the
crowning household graco of silence.
Men are so unlike women in this
respect that while they love strongly
and faithfully they do not depend on
the daily outward expression of it
as much as women do. A loving
wife can forget hor own bodily need
to cater for the taste or minister to
the comfort of those she loves. But
these expressions of affection and
tenderness she can not dispense with
without suffering loss. They are
her life. With them her nature ex
pands, broadens, becomes richer and
nobler; without them she withers
aud becomes greatly impoverished.
Some husbands little know how
quickly their wives may deteriorate
aud become mere' cold machines if
they pass heedlessly on their way,
forgetting the heart-famine they
leave at home.
But no matter how much a wife
craves gentle attention and loving
notice, it is better that she should
teach herself to know "tho great
strength she may ommanu by si
lencenot uuamiablc silence, but
that which gently tends upward
toward peace, and its patient con
tinuance will sometimes open a hus
band's eyes to his unintentional
neglect and make him love and
honor his wife all the more for the
quiet lesson she has taught him.
There are limes in a man's life, far
more than in a woman's when any
reply to careless remarks, or, com
plaints of inattention or eeeming
neglect, would be unwise and threat
en t rou hie.
Cau you effect a change by con
stant repining? Does not that mood
enhance the evil and risk, changing
carelessness now and then iuto a
settled indifference? And by ex
postulations, complaints and perhaps
reproaches, does not a wife endan
ger her own love? While that
shines undiminished there is always
hope that the "dove of peace and
promise" will yet fold its wings and
take up its abode there, and tho last
days of that household bo brighter
and more lovely than the first.
Try the virtue of silence, when
tempted to "last speeches," and see
if it will not do more to lift the
cloud than the bitter invectives
which wounded pride and irritated
love are sure to utter. The first,
faithfully acted upon, brings hope
of better times; tho latter, if not at
once and forever dismissed, is sure
destruction of all true love and do
mestic peace. Baptist Weekly.
Hfcwly-3irrlel Ceaples
It is the happiest aud most vir
tuous slate of society in which the
husband and wife set out together,
and with perfect sympathy of soul,
graduate all their expenses, plans,
calculations and desires with refer
ence to their present means and to
their future and common interest.
Nothing delights man more than
to enter the neat little tenement of
the young people who within per
haps two or three years, without
any resources but their own knowl
edge of industry, have joined heart
and hand, and engage to share to
gether the responsibilities, duties,
trials and pleasures of life. The
industrions Tvife is cheerfully em
ploying her hauds in domestic du
ties, putting her house in order or
mending her husband's clothes, or
preparing the dinner, while perhaps
the little darling sits prattling on
the floor or lies sleeping in the cra
dle, and everything seems preparing
to welcome the happiest of husbands
and the best of fathers when he shall
come home from his toil to enjoy
the sweets of his little paradise,
This is the true domestic pleasure,
rieallh, contentment, love, abund
ance, aud bright prospects are all
here. But it has become a prevalent
sentiment that a man must acquire
his fortnne before he marries ; that
his wifo must have no sympathy Bor
share with him In the pursuit of it
in which much of the pleasure con
sistsand the young married people
must set out with as large and ex
pensive establishment as is becom
ing those who have been married
twenty years. This is very unhap- '
py; it fills the community with
bachelors, who arc waiting to make
their fortunes, endangering virtue,
promoting vice; destroys tho true
economy and design of the domestic
institution, aud i promotes ineffi
ciency among females, who are ex
pecting to be taken up by fortunes
and passively sustained without any
care or concern on their part, and
thus many a wife becomes as a gen
tleman once remarked, not a "help
meet," but a "helpeat." Golden Age.
Nebraska.
Another evidence of the richness
of the soil of Nebraska is found in
the fact of the number and great
growth of the native grasses, which
afford the very best pasturago from
early spring until tho month of No
vember. Those who have investi
gated the subject of tho nativo
grasses claim no fewer than one
hundred and fifty species. Among
other Tarioties the blue-joint grows
everywhere in the State except on
tho low bottom lands. In ordinary
seasons, and under favorable condi
tions its growth is from two and a
half to four feet, and often on culti
vated grounds it will grow to the
height of seven and ten feet. On the
up-lands, blue-joint grows In great
abundance and is greatly relished by
cattle. Buffalo grass now in the
greatest quantity is found in the
western half of the State. This, it is
claimed, disappears before cultiva
tion, but it is nature's provision of
food for grain-eating animals during
winter, when the animals are com
pelled to remain on the prairie, as it
retains its nutriment all the year
round. Among feed grasses that
grow abundautly in the State are
several varieties of bunch grass ; and
in the low lands a native blue-grass,
and what is known as the spangle
top, which makes an excellent qual
ity of hay.
It was a question among the first
settlers of Nebraska whether fruit
could be successfully grown in the
State or not, but finding the wild
fruits, such as plums, grape, aud
gooseberries growing in abundance,
it was thought that apple orchards
might be cultivated with success.
So reasoning, the earlier settlers in
tho eastern part of the State planted
their orchards and their first plant
ings failed, but they persevered and
the result has been a complete suc
cess. Nebraska fruits now compare
favorably with the best produced in
other states. In 1871 Nebraska had
on exhibition at Richmond, Va., one
hundred and forty-six varieties of
apples, fifteen of peaches, thii teen of
pears, one of plums, aud one of
grapes, aud was awarded the first
premium for the best collection of
fruit amoug all the States. The
fruits of Nebraska have been exhib
ited at Boston, Chicago aud at tho
International Exhibition in 187G, tho
judges awarding prizes for eight
varieties of pears, large, smooth and
well colored, and for two hundred
and sixty-three varieties of apples,
the latter prize being for the unusu
ally large number of finely grown
varieties. Instead of orchards flour
ishing only in the eastern part of the
State and near the Missouri river,
they do well away out on the prairie
wherever nature's conditions of
growing fruit are observed.
A Qitebec Cilhottt,
The Rev. R. W. B. Webster, of
Quebec, says that he has had a su
pernatural visitor. He lives alone
in a big house, and the ghost walks
through the walls of his bedroom in
the night. The reverend gentleman
s pastor of the Trinity Church, an
independent Presbytorian body, aud
last Sunday he told his congregation
about his strange experience. "I
awoke," he said, "conscious of the
presence of a ghostly apparition. I
.saw, plainly discernible, a figure in
human form, but with a most angelic
countenance, whose head was sur
rounded by a halo of phosphoric
lightof exceeding splendor, and who
stood at the foot of my bed. A
number of other spirits were evi
dently in the room, but were not
discernible, being obscured by the
eclipsing brightness of the central
figure, which remained standing in
the same position about half an
hour." Mr. Webster intimated that
the face was that of somebody whom
he had known in life, and who gave
him a message of the most appalling
character, but docs not deem it wise
to give the particulars to the public
jnst yet.
Temper nt Home.
I have peeped iuto quiet parlors
where the carpet is clean aud not
old, and the furniture polished and
bright ; and iifto rooms where the
chairs are deal and the floor carpet
less, into kitchens where the meals
are cooked and eaten, and the boys
and girls are as blithe as the spar
rows in the thatch overhead ; and I
see that it is uot so much wealth,
nor learning, nor clothing, servants
or toil, nor idleness or town, nor
country, rank or station as tone
and temper that make life joyous or
miserable, that make our homes hap
py or wretched. And I see, too,
that in town or country, God's grace
and good sense make life what no
teachers, accomplishments, means or
society can make it, the opening
stave of an endless existence, the
goodly, modest, well proportioned
vestibule to a temple of God's build
ing, that shall never decay, wax old
or varnish away.

The choice some people make of
matrimonial partners is hard to un
derstand. A young Maine farmer
married a highly cultured Boston
girl who didn't know the first thing
about housekeeping, but had devoted
her youth to tho study of geology
and mineralogy, and when he took
her homo, instead of attending to
household duties, she wont roaming
about the farm and soon discovered
on her husband's land a gold mine
worth $40,000. You can't always
tell how a match will turn out.
