There is no amupetnent more at
tainable, anil certainly none more
satisfactory, than that which is de
rived from the perusal of good
hook e. They arc companions of
whoso Rociety we never grow wea
ry, and they have this advantage
over other friends ; they are always
accessible and never intrude upon
us when we wish- to be alone. "With
in the compass of a small library we
have the richest aud most select
thoughts of the learued and the
gifted of all ages. There the poet,
the philosopher, the historian stand
ready to amuse aud instruct us ; aud
yet, how seldom do we consider this
bleseiug as we should ? Few of us
comprehend how greatly we are in
debted to the art of printing for
some of the most pleasurable mo
ments of our lives. In conversation
with our friends, even the best of
them, we are almost certain to de
generate into frivolity aud nonsense,
but in silent communion with the
gifted ones upon our book-shelves,
our thoughts are elevated, our ideas
enlarged, and our lives ennobled.
"What a solace to those of us whom
circumstances have thrown upon our
own resources is a good book. Tho'
conGucd within the walls of a nar
row home, we are free to follow the
armies of the Crusaders; we are
free to ramble In the forests of mer
ry England before the Conquest; or
io wander amid the wonders of old
Rome, and the riches of Persia. "We
can visit all lands with our owu
Bayard Taylor, or explore strange
and uudevelopcd Africa with Liv
ingstone; yet all tbe while rest in
our easiest chair by our favorite
window. We see the Pyramids
building, we hear the shouting of
armies and feel the grouud shake
beneath their tread; we see the light
ot burning cities, and hear the
shouts of victory, as well as the
gentle sounds of pastoral life. Yes,
books are indeed the true Elysian
fields where the spirits of the dead
converse," and at all times we say
enter without fear. Aud where else
shall we find such company? "With
out undervaluing friendship, or any
of the pleasures or sweets of social
life, were we to recommend a friend
tor all emergencies, in sickness, in
health, at home or in exile, by the
fireside or in camp, in youth or in

tried books.
Out -door MufV'ty.
The fear of the weather has sent
multitudes to their graves who oth
erwise might have lived iu health
uiauy years longer. The fierce north
wind and the furious snow-storm
kill comparatively lew, while hot
winter! rooms and crisping summer
euhs Wave countless hecatombs ot
human victims to attest their power.
Except in localities where malignant
miasmata prevail, and that only iu
warm weather, out-door life is the
healthiest and happiest, from the
tropica to the poles.
The general fact speaks for itself,
that persons who arc out-of-doors
most take cold least- In some parts
of our country near one-half of our
adult deaths arc from diseases of the
air-passa'ges. These ailment arise
frQa,Ukicold? in6iMiie way or
auolber?TKdHurely the-reader,will
talraMoTneHntereat in 'a subject
which, by.at "least one chance out of
fourfh'Igown Jife may be lost.
AH-colds-we believe, arise from
one of two cairses.
1. By getting cool too quickly af-,
ter exercise, either as to the whole
body or any part of it.
2.., By beiug chilled, and remain-
iugSaoVer a long time, for- want of
exercise.
To fvold colds' from the former,
we hay e only to go to a fire the mo
ment, the.exercise ceases, in the win
ter. If iu tho summer, repair at
once to a cloeed room, aud there
remain with the same clothing ou
until cooled olT.
To avoid colds from the latter
cause, and these engender the most
speedily fatal diseases, such as pleu
risies, croup, aud inflammation of
the lungs, called pneumonia, we
havo only to compel ourselves to
walk with sufficient vigor to keep
off chilliness. Attention to a pre
cept contained iu less than a dozen
"words would add twenty years to
the average of civilized life.
Keep away chilliness by exercise;
cool offsloMiy. Then you will nev
er take cold, in-door or out.
feci In Winter.
There is no domestic uuitnal that
sutlers so much from exposure to
cold and wot as the hog. He is a
native' of a mild climate add should
he treated as his nature demands, if
we would turn his peculiarities to
our advautage. And during winter
he should be provided with warm,
dry quarters, plenty of warm, clean
bedding, nud an abundant supply of
nutritious, fat and heat producing
food. For this purpose there is
nothing equal to corn, owing to the
large amount of carbon in its com
position, which the hog appropriates
io producing tat aud heat to warm
his system tho same as our stoves
consume carbon iu the form of wood
and coal to warm our rooms. The
colder and more exposed these are.
the more fwel we are obliged to
consume to make them comfortable.
Just so with the hog; the less care
is expended iu making his quarters
comfortable, the more com he must
consume to keep up the auimal heat,
&ndf if not 'supplied, with the neces-
sary amount of food, his system has
to fall back ou the carbon it has
stored in the form of fat, and he
must necessarily lose in weight, at
his careless or thoughtless owner6
expense.
Ilogs should also huvo a good
supply of water, salt, coal aud ashes.
Salt is a valuable stimulator of the
appetite aud digestive organs.
During warm days iu the wiutcr,
the feed should be regulated ac
cording to the temperature, just as
wo would regulate the fuel accord
ing to the demands of the weather.
When the weather suddenly be
comes warm, animals lose their ap
petites aud are liable to become
"stalled." Some cooling, cucculent
food, as slop or vegetables of some
kiud, should be substituted for the
more heating food of grain. West

Says Alexander Ilyde in the New
York Times: "We seo so many far
mers working hard from the begin
ning of the year to its end, aud that
year after year till life ends, with
such small results that we do wish
to impress upou the community the
true principle of economy, a farmer's
wife once expressed to us in one
word calculation. We found her
a slender-looking woman, surround
ed by a flock of children, aud having
tho care of a dairy of a dozen cows,
with no Bridget to assist her, and
everything moved on like clock
work. The children were tidy, tho
house neat, tho cooking nice, aud
the butter ot gilt-edged quality.
We watched her to study tho secret
ot her economical management. She
uever seemed to be iu a hurry, cer
taiuly uever in a fret, but went from
one thing to auother as calmly and
pleasantly as the butterfly goes from
one flower to another. "We noticed
that she had every convenience for
her work. Water flowed constantly
in her kitchen and dairy-room, aud
her churning was done by dog
power. "We were satisfied, howev
er, that the secret of her efficiency
was not in churns, dogs, water, nor
any other conveniences for labor,
and we finally asked, "How do you
accomplish all your work with such
apparent case?" With a toss of her
head and a pleasant smile she re
plied: "By calculation. Before I go
to bed I set my table and make all
arrangements for breakfast. Before
get up in the morning I think over
the labors of the day, aud plan ev
erything out, assigning such duty
its time, aud when the time coineB I
atteud to the duty and uow the
time has come tor me to skim my
milk, please excuse me." TTpon
this she bowed herself out with (he
grace of a queen. "We could uol.
help thinking happy is the farmer
that has such a help-meet!"
KuIn for Health.
We should tint leave our souls to
theministers nor our health to tbe
doctors. So the following simple
rules for the preservation of health,
especially through the changeable
seasons of autumn, winter aud
spring should not bo left entirely to
to health journals.
Never lean with your back agaiust.
.anything that is cold.
Never begin to journey until
break fust is eaten.
Never take warm drinks and then
immediately go out into the cold air.
Keep the back, especially between
the shoulder blades, well covered;
also the chest well protected.
In sleeping in a cold room estab
lish a habit of breathing through the
nose, aud never with the mouth wide
open.
Never go to bed with cold or damp
feet; always toast them by the fire
for teu or fifteen minutes before
going to bed.
Never omit regular bathing; for
unless tho skin is in an active con
dition, the cold will close the pores
aud favor congestion and other dis
eases. After exorcise of any kind never
ride iu an open carriage nor near the
window of a car for a moment. It
is dangerous to health and even
life.
When hoarse, speak as Tittle as
possible until the hoarseness is re
covered from, else the voice may he
permanently lost, or difficulties of
the throat produced.
Merely warm the back by a fire,
aud never continue kcepiug the back
exposed to the heat after it has be
come comfortably warm. To do so
is debilitating.
"Wheu going from a warm atmoB
phere iuto a colder one, keep the
mouth closed, so that the air may be
warmed by its passage through the
nose ere it reaches the lungs.
Never stand slit! in cold weather,
especially after having taken a slight
degree of exercise ; and always avoid
standing upon ice or snow, or where
the person is exposed to a cold wind.
Albany Argus.
In the decline of life, shame aud
grief are of short duratiou ; whether
it be that we bear easily what we
have borne long, or that finding our
selves in age less regarded, we less
regard others ; or, that we look with
flight regard upon afflictions, to
which we know that the hand of
death is about to put an end.
A little girl read a composition
before the minister. The subject
was "a cow." She wove in this com
plimentary sentence : "A cow is the
most useful auimal iu the world
except religion."
Better TIioHglita.
One voice begets auother.
Troubles come in a cluster.
Labor overcomes all thiugs.
Enough is as good as a feast.
True courage is cool and calm.
Bo not a judge between friends.
Love aud cough cannot be hid.
Don't borrow trouble on interest.
Conquer unreasonable prejudices.
Cultivate a love of the beautiful.
Deliberate well aud act promptly.
There is no severity like gentle
ness. Lose not thy own for want of ask
ing it.
True wisdom is to know our ig
norauce. "Wo ask advice, but we mean ap
probation. Lot your moderation be known to
all men.
A rotton apple injures its compan
ions.
Be courageous for tho truth aud
the right.
He who loves flowers cannot
bo wholly vicious.
Never sacrifice the substauce to
the shadow.
The first step to self-knowledge is
self-distrust.
Creditors havo bettor memories
than debtors.
Self-possession is essential to good
breeding.
Let him alone severely, is a max
im of prudence.
There is but one short step be
tweou lying and theft.
We are near waking when we
dream that we dream.
Some mem are great bocause their
associates are little.
"What maintains one vice would
bring up two children.
Pay what you owe, aud what" you
are worth you'll know.
The trickster is almost certain to
come to an iguoble end.
First, the necessary ; then, the use
ful ; then, the ornamental.
Error may bo tolerated, if reason
be loft free to combat it.
Despair is the ofl'HpVuig of fear
laziness aud impatience.
Newspapers should bo read with
cautious discrimination.
A fop is known by his dress a
gentleman by his address.
Virtue itself offends when con
nected with forbidding manners.
There is nothing more dangerous
than a friend without discretion.
Constant complaining fcrings no
sympathy; it produces indifference.
If you want enemies, excel others ;
if you waut friends, let others exce
you,
Whenever one begins to say "I am
as goou as anotucr, ne excites a
doubt.
If we throw mud at. every one, the
chances are that some of it will
stick.
It is an easy matter to get iuto a
law suit, but often very difficult fo
get out.
Tho good house-keeper may bo a
vixcu, but she cannot be altogether
had.
Let the world have its amuse
ments, provided they be followed
with discretion.
Taste and imagination, rightly
cultivated in youth, lead to vigor
ous manhood.
The law suit, begins with a notice
but when, or how, or where shall
it end?
Tho truth need not always be spo
ken ; but whatever is spokeu should
he the truth.
I uever knew a graceless person ;
close inquiry will always show some
rcdeemiug trait.
If one is sure of his social position,
ho would better assert it by his hear
ing than by his words.
It is wise to he on good terms with
our relations and neighbors; aud, if
possible, with everybody.
The substance of the ambitious is
the shadow of a dream; ambition it
self is the shadow of a shadow.
Reconciliation may he followed
by forgiveness, but confidence, once
lost, can rarely be restored.
He that will not reason, is a bigot ;
he that cannot reason, is a fool ; he
that dares not reason, is a slave.
Keep your promises sacredly ; but
promises to do wrong should be
broken ; rash promises should never
be made.
Nothing is easier than to relapse
into an evil habit; nothing more
difficult, than to rise from the slough
of despond.
Tecumseh Journal says that par-'
cuts who neglect the education of
their children really renounce for
them all right to the prizes offered
to intelligence, etc. The trouble
with many parent is, they have nev
er uuderstood what the relationship
implies. Affection aside, simple
justice demands that the child be
given audi educational advantages
as he will improve aud the pareut
can possibly aflbrd. A child who
takes to learning should be encour
aged even at the coat of self-denial
on the part of the parents. They
who see clearly consider the ad
vancement of their children a hundred-fold
more thau they consider
their own ease. Literary Notes.
A teaspoonful or more of pow
dered borax thrown iutaplhc bath
tub while bathing will communicate
a velvety softness to the water and
at the same time invigorate and rest
the bather. Persons troubled with
nervousness or wakeful nights will
find this kind of a bath a great ben
efit. There are few doors through
which liberality, joiued with good
humor, cannot find its way.
The Coming: Faith.
Said Moucure 1). Conway, iu his
recent New York lecture: The time
is comiug when the sum aud sub
stance of religion will be to make
life more sweet and geutle, when
there will be no human being who
will oaro to look for a higher relig
ion to promote the happiness and
wisdom of the world. Would not
the power and wealth that has deco
rated tho world with temples be
suflicicut to circlo it with happy,
beautiful homes if it was regarded
as the proper object? Humanity
has its schenio of salvation in the
escape from present evil. A legend
run 6, that when Mary was traveling
iu Egypt and was weary of carrying
the child, a third hand grew out for
its support. So it is iu the religion
of humanity ; whenever there is
trouble there comes a sustaining
hand. "The religion of humanity
has not the disadvantage of being
some new sect. It has been iu ex
istence many ages. I believe it is
the only religion that does exist
Whenever there is a Protestant
movement, and they are occurring
always, we hear the cries, 'not Chris
tianity, but Christ;' 'not Mahomet
anism, but Mahomet,' 'not Budd
hism, but Buddha.' It is because
tho teacher taught the doctrine ot
humanity, but the sects borrowing
his name have takcu the form ot the
forces he combaitcd. There never
was a prophet who did not teach
love aud there never was a system
that did not teach wrath and ven
geance. So steadily as knowledge
and science advance supernatural
terrors will become more aud more
grotesque. That Christ was a mail
and not a thunder-god will be the
doctrine of Christianity. Tho ha
tred of pain, tho horror of asceti
cism, the detestation of evil, a pas
sionate love for the right aud for
beauty, a higher virtue, an enthusi
asm for the good of his fellow-man
these are some of the attributes of
the religion of humanity which will
flourish when all the petty creeds
arc things to smile at.
One of the uncertainties of our
present slate the most dreadful and
alarming is the uncertain continu
ance of reason.
Domestic rule is founded upon
truth and love. If it has not both of
these, it is nothing bettor than a
despotism.
This is the present reward of vir
tuous conduct that no unlucky
consequence can oblige us to re
gret it.
All virtue lies iu the power of
denying our own desires when roa
hoii does not authorize or sanction
them.
The mind hath not reason to re
member that passions ought to be
her vassals, not her masters.
No indulgence of passion deslrovB
the spiritual nature so much as re
spectable selfishness.
No evil is insupportablo but that
which is accompanied with con
sciousness of wrong.
