Mrs. Prudence Hall had sprained her ankle, and was forced, sorely a^inst her will, to sit day after day in an upper chamber, wit ^ ^ j errible consciousness that eve ry th i^^bou t the farm was relapsing into chaos and old njight for want of her fore­sight. Her pretty sister Dora had come to stay with her; but she was “only a child you know.”

“There are two kinds of love in this world,” said Mrs. Hall, after a pause, in which she had been taking counsel with herself whether Dora was old enough to be talked to on such matters at all, and it flashed upon her that “the chihl” was near- y 20 years old. ‘ Perhaps you like Seth well enough to marry him, only you don’t know it.”

“Tell me about the two kinds of love,” said Dora, innocently. “I thought love was love the world over.’’

“I have never known but one kind,I think, Dora. When I married David Hall, he was the most well-to do young man in these parts, and we never had a quarrel while he lived. He waS a good, practical sort of a man, and he never asked me to do anything unreasonable.”

“W hat if he had?’ asked Dora.“W ell, I guess I should have

argued him out of it. But there is a kind of love that will draw women

Dora had bent low over her work to bide her r e l is h smiles at her sis­ter’s discourse; but at this point she fi.xed her deep gray eyes on Prudence not smiling, but simply earnest.

“Such love brings happiness some times, I suppose,” said Dora

“Next to never !” s.aid Prud eiice with great decision. “W e ain’t made to be happy, and anything that’s too good always leaves a bad taste in the mouth. Comfort is a bird in the hand, and you don’t gain any­thing by letting it fly on the chance of happiness.”

“Did you ever know any one about here, Prudence, that threw herself .away for love? It seems to me that they won’t look at a man un­less he has a house and fann ail ready for them.”

“That’s where they’re right,” said Prudence. “You are rather given to high-flying notions, and it’s time you found out that bread don’t grow already buttered. Yes, I did know one girl who was pretty and smart, and had no end of chances to get married ( I think my David courted her a spell, but he never would own it), and she would have that shift­less critter, Joe Raymond, who never, conld make one hand wash the other. Even when she was a-dying she pre­tended that she had been happy, and wouldn’t have done no other way if she had it to do over .again.”

mother?” askedDora, quickly.

“k es, to be sure; and when she died we took him to bring up and work on the farm. He’s more than paid his w.ay, but lie’s a rolling stone like his father, and won’t never come to anylliing. I forgot to tell yoil— he’s going to-morrow.”

“Going to-morrow?’ cried Dora with a great start. “I thought his time wasn t out for another month.”

“Well, it ain’t rightly out till he’s twenty-one, but he tvas in such a burry to be off that I gave him the 'ast month.”

Then a silence fell upon them.These two women had the same

father and mother, though a score of years Lay between them. Prudence lad been born in the early married ife of her parents, when they were

struggling with a stony New Eng- and farm, and there was work for

even baby hands. The lines of duty

“How long M’ill you wait for me, Dora ?”

“Till you come back.”“I f it were seven years, think how

long it would be.”“If you loved me as you make me

,TlBHieve,” said Dora, “you would no go away at all, but work here until you could build a little house, am then we could rough it together.

“No, little Dora, that is not my kind of love; my mother tried that, and she lived a slave’s life.”

“Dora, Dora!” called Prudence from up stairs; “what on earth are you doing down there?”

“I must go now ; I must truly,” said Dora, as she felt herself locked in arms that would not give way, “If I live without you for seven years I shall be a homely old maid, and you will not thank ipe for waiting for you.”

He put her away then and looked at her curiously, as if bo }iad never thought of her prettiness before? “Do you know what your name means ?” be asked earnestly. “I saw it in a paper that Theodora means ‘Gift of God,’ and you have been just that to me. I f I bad never seen you I should never have had a notion about a day’s work or a night’s sleep.I will write whenever I have any luck, and come home on New Year’s eve when I do come, and if jrpa wear this red dress I shall know you have waited for me.”

“I think I shall live to wear it when you come home, if it is seven times seven years, Joe, for women are very hard to kill,” said Dora, slowly disapoeariug from the kitchen.

“W hat have you been doing all this time ?’’ said Prudence, severely.

“I was only giving Joe some very good advice.”

“Well, I hope lie’ll profit by it.”“So do I,” said Dora, heartily.

’Tis as easy to s.ay seven years as one; and we read of Jacob’s sevenyears’ service for Rachel which seem­ed but as one day for the love that iic bore her. Rachel’s feelings are not thought worthy to ho mentioned ill holy writ, but if her love was like Dora B, every day seemed like seven years.

close, Dor.a’s heart beat light within her. Joe liad mentioned seven years, as if he meant to come home then at any rate. She wore out the first day of the “Glad New Year” with busy cares, till late in the after­noon, when an old man, spent with much walk, stop])cd to rest himself in the farm kitchen. Prudence be­stirred herself to g ’ve him a hearty luncheon, and when he was warmeil and fed he began to talk of his trav els. He had bopu .scekiu^ hi^^or- tune all over the west, and, J ^ o r finding it, had come back to die at home. He mentioned Colorado and Denver, and when Dora found her self alone with him for a moment, she said: “Did you ever see Joseph Ray­mond in Denver?”

“Joe R.aymond? Oh, yes! knew him w ell; lived with him nigh on to a month. His wife is a real good cook; couldn’t he heat in them l>arts.”

Prudence came in, .and the old man went bis way, all unconscious of tlio great stone he had cast into the still waves of Dora’s heart.

“W hat’s the matter?” said Pru­dence, “you’re as white as a. sheet.”

Dora’s only answer was to start out of the house, and run as for life, down the frozen orchard path, by which she could gain upon .and over­take this terrible old man. “She might have said, with the “holy Herbert

THE COUIfTERFElT BSEAKFAST.

[Miss Colbrath in her unrivDlled book, “ What to Get fo r £reakfa$t," after sketching the geunine breakfast, with its Cliarm and cheer and bright­ness, draws this picture in contrast:

A home without a good lA'eakfast — how shall we describe it? Instead of the sunny courtesy with which a man comes to a faultless breakfast,

who has no assnrance of a satisfy­ing morning repast, comes like a man who has had bad news broken to him, and most likely with a “breach of peace” pictured on his face. Yet, if this man had the same assnrance of an attractive breakfast of which the conrtcons one was confident, he might have excelled him in polite­ness.

Her feeling of grateful awe, as if she had escaped from sud­den death, kept her from mourning much over the passing away of the seventh anniversary of Joe’s depart­ure, with no sign of his return.

His letters had wholly ceased, and there was nothing left for Dora to possess her soul in patience. When another New Year dawned upon her, she put on tlie old red dress, more from habit than any gleam of hope in her heart, and did not care to look in the glass. In the tv ilight she walked slowly down the • orchard path, and leaned on the gate that opened into the road.

Suddenly a man spraikg out from behind the wall.

“ ‘Theodora,’ my ‘gift of God !’ he said; and Dora, though she recog­nized no mark of the lover who had left her eight years before, felt that no other knew that pass-word, and suffered herself to rest silently in his arms, in the ineffable content that comes after long waiting.

When Joe and Dora went into the house, and she looked at him by candlelight, her heart almost misgave her; his luxuriant beard, and the m.anly .assurance of his manners, were not at all like her Joe of belov­ed memory, and a terrible harrier seemed to rise up between them, while Prudence remained in the room, with her company manners, which sat more awkwardly upon her thah I,or Sunday gown.

When Dora tiptoed softly hy her sister’s door at a very late hour that niglif, Prudence was lying aw.akc for her.

“Don’t tell me,” she said, “th.at you’ve been waiting for that Joe Ilayniond all this time?’’

“ I won’t tell yon, if you don’t want to hear it,” said Dora.

“Do you know whether he came iiome any better off than when he went aw:iy ?”

“I really haven’t thought to ask him,” said Dora carcle.ssly. Prudence groaned and turned her f.ace to the wall.

Hints to Poor Sleepers.

A physician gives several hints for poor sleepers, some of which may be found beneficial. It is frequently advantageous to raise the head of the bed a foot higher than the foot, and then to sleep on a tolerably thick hair pillow, so as to bring the head a little higher than the shoulders. The object is to m.ake the work of the heart in throwing the blood to the brain harder, so it will not throw so much. A level bed, with the head almost as low as the feet, causes an easy flow of blood to the brain, •and prevents sleep. Persons who find themselves restless and unable to sleep at night, would do well to place the head towards the north, as it is undoubtedly greatly conducive to health. A hot mustaid foot bath, taken at bedtime, is beneficial in drawing the blood from the head, and thus inducing sleep. Sponge the entire length of the spine with hot water for ten or fifteen minutes before retiring. This will often in­sure a good night’s sleep. A hearty meal and a seat near a warm fire .after a long walk in the cold, will induce deep sleep in the majority of persons, no matter how lightly they ordinarily.^lumber. Actii^e outdoor exercise and avoidance of excessive and long continued mental exertion, are necessary in all cases of sleepless­ness. Where these means fail, such remedies as .are known to diminish the amount of blood in the head, should he resorted to— of course un­der the direction of a competent physician. Opium, chloral, etc., in­crease the quantity of blood in the head, and are highly injurious. Their use should never be resorted to.

Why They Mourned.

On a certain occasion a train which Merewether had gone to meet was somewhat late. A testy old gentlemen, a stranger to Merewether, got out of all p.atienco at the delay, and exclaimed, “W hat a villainous station this is ! They try to irritate one on purpose. Look at those girls in the refreshment-room; why do they dress them all in black?” Don’t

, _ edcake,*a d a jfe ^ , : l» ]^ cup of c o fm vvein many Euailies, wbo hsre never dreamed thatasquare and satisfyW breakfast has^ftch lo do with ^ prosperity of Effmanity. In this en- lightened republic, instead of break­fasting with a plenty of simple and nourishing food, how many begin the labors of the day with a scanty, unattractive, and inmgestible break­fast, which exhansts instead of sup­plying the forces!

Bacon or pork served swimming in grease,— steak fried or broiled till the life has gone out of it, and conse­quently so tough and hard that one could eat and enjoy a side of leather about as easfiy,— cold potatoes warm­ed over in fat that suggests the lon­gevity of both fat anothe vessel in which It was preserved,— a hastened corn-cake so rank with soda that the stomach is made unhappy th ron g the day,— a choice mutton chiptransformed beyond recc^nition,__muffins burned to a cinder, by forcing them with t oo hot an oven,— scram­bled eggs, and griddle-cakes made leathery for want of promptni ss,— the coffee, alas! for that precious cup, so muddy and bitter that you cannot recognize its first piinoiples; and to complete its transformation, the milk served in an unsanitary pitcher! These are familiar break­fasts in many ftpailies.

Dangerons b re^asts these. They do not fitly feed hnnger. The hun­gry body vainly tries to recuperate in its efforts to digest this wretchedly- cooked food not “convenient” for it, so that what might have been done bad the food been rightly cooked, remains undone. Determination, application, and patience will enable one to scr 'e a very different morning meal, with a IRtle earlier rising, if necessary, for a breakfast gonen in “no time” usu- allv drifts its own way.

There is much truth in those old proverbs which say that “necessity knows no law,” and that “hunger will make a hungry monkey eat pepper.” This land is flowing with whiskey and lager. He who has not been fitly fed at breakfast is unsafe, for before noon the inward craving is sure to make a demand, which must be sat­isfied ; .and the saloons become an easy resort for eking out a poor breakfast. A man o^isappointea in this mc.al can easily console his hun­ger with something to drink. Breidi- fast was insufficient to give him strength^ ho* must have something to make up the want, and he foolish­ly believes he can qnickly get it from a glass of whiskey or beer, which gives him spasmodio strength for a brief time, but when the reaction comes leaves him worse than ever. Is it not wise to teach that a break­fast unfailingly good, with all the elements that stimulate and nonriah the body, has its moral as well as physical benefit?

iSATUKUAY, AU G. 5, lSi'2.

This week has been an cventfuTone at Washington. The National as­sembly, which has already M asted an unusually long session in compara­tively unimportant legislation, has topped its record with a feat witliout parallel in the history of this country. One of the most important measures that comes before every session of congress is the river and harbor aj)- priatioii bill, w hich assigns a share of government money to the improving of various localities where such im­provement .-will be for the general good of y large body of people; such an impr/ivement was the building of jetties at the mouth <#the Mississippi river, which opened alchanuel for the flow of commerce, into a dozen or more different states. When the Ni^ tion’s money is appropriated m such large sums, there is a chance for con­tractors to get big jobs with good and sure pay. There is also an opening for dishonest individuals who may obtain the handling of this money to appropriate a few thousands for their own pi’ivatc use without the theft be­ing discovered. Accordingly, when this bill comes up annually before congress, the capitol is thronged with contractors from those parts of the country to which improvements are likely to bo voted, each one of whom is willing to sacrifice time and money in trying to influence congressmen to vote for a largo appropriation for the work he expects to do

This year everyone was surprisec to learn that the river and harbor appropriations made by both houses of congress amounted to nineteen millions of dollars, a sum larger than ever before appropriated for these purposes by eight millions. In look­ing for an explanation of this large increase, it was found that, in many particular items of the bill, money had been appropriated for improve­ments in localities where the benefi­cial results would be realized by coiflliaratively small number of peo­ple. Then there arose suspicions o ' “ log4t>llmg” , or undue influence ex

On board the L ettie, 1 Edgartown, Mass., July 31.)

If I was ever indisposed, I am to­day, but having promised to let you hear from mo, I have concluded to -^et the letter off my hands ns soon as possible. On Wednesday, the 25th, Misses W. and C. Chadwick and Hol­land of Manchester and W. J. Mc- Conuvillc of Hartford nnived at New London to prepare the yacht Lettie for a ten-day cniise along the eoast. Tlie boat was not ready for us, it having been foimd necessniy to jiut in a new mast and make some other repairs. By nightfall we had our traps and most of our provisions on board. It was strongly hinted that the boat was too small, it being but 30x12, and it was generally agreed that it would call for careful packing to stow away ten persons. Another cause for alarm was that we had but

row-boat, into which not more

repairs of was hurt.

Another new engine, the 106, made its appearance on the New England road Wednesday. It has eight drivers and is the heaviest en- ]jine on the lin"c. Unlike most of this company’s freight engines, the new machine is ormanented with :;ancy paint and gold leaf.

Our readers will find in another column, a graphic description of the trip of the Lettie, a New London yacht that is bearing a lot of nauti- cally-inclined Manchester men to various seaside resorts on the south­eastern shore. The log will be con­tinued next week.

Several cases of sporadic cholera have made their appearance in town. The disease is similar to Asiatic cholera and acts the same upon adults as cholera infantum does upon infants. It is not considered contag­ions but is brought on by careless eating and drinking habits during hot weather.

Five empty freight cars were pushed off an open switch near the station Wednesday. The ties were bruised a little and kindling wood was made of some of the planks at the crossing. The train conductor, aided by suggestions from ei^teen boys and thirteen adalte, who hastened to the resone, had the can all on the track again in half an hdnr.

onefbn.D six could be stowed. It was finally decided to let these matters rest until the aiTival of the captain and rest of the party. After par. taking of om’ first meal on board, w-e were entertained with music on the upper deck by our band, and dancing and singing by our lawyer and the cook. It soon became evi­dent that we were up for all night. We had visits from several parties during the evening, among whom was a boat-load of ladies, evidently old acquaintances of Johnnie’s, though it was some time before they recognized him. It was his rendition of “Kaiser, don’t you want to buy a dogl" that settled matters, for at the conclusion of the song, one of the ladies cried out, “ Oh, Johnnie, I hardly knew you!” We detained this party as long as possible, and finally, when with sweet good nights, and the tune of “ Good night, ladies,” they left, a gloom seemed to settle upon our boat, and we decided to drive it away by playing games of different kinds, and daylight found us seeking a change. At 6 o'clock we took breakfast. The absent mem­bers of the party anived on the 10 o’clock train ; they were in the best of spirits, although the butcher had

’;j|^y b ottled the le'ifi the many. The papers begun to applau4 his news came that the

t when the had been

passed over the veto by a two-thirds majority in both houses.

The country, excepting the sec­tions that-expect the direct benefit of the appropriations, is indignant, and the effect of this act of congress will no doubt be the failure of many mem­bers who voted for the bill to secure are-election. Both Connecticut sen­ators, Messers. Hawley and Flatt, voted against the bill, but the repre­sentatives, Messers. Buck, W ait and Phelps all voted for it.

The success of men'jof ilk repute, who have in the last few weeks ac­quired large sums of money by brief exhibitions of brute force, has had a bad influence upon a class of persons, who are always longing to make a fortune in a day. A man with a battered straw hat, soiled over-hauls and a grimy face remarked to a friend, the other day, “ If I had made the money Sullivan has in the last month, I wouldn’t be taking a load of charcoal- to Hartford Ifcday.” This man who lives somewhere among the Bolton Hills, couldn’t tell yon about the Eastern war, in fact it is very doubtful whether he would locate EgJ'P in Asia or the United States, yet somehow he had heard all about the Snilivan-Wilson fight. It’s not best to long for wealth. If you are poor, make th^ best o f it. You can be just as happy burning charcoal in Marlboro as you would be if you were a wealthy man in tbe metropolis^ A very good jiroverb by a late writer reads, “ Alw.ays be content with what you have, but never with what you are. If you are honest and industrious, the world will give you just as good a living as you are capable of enjoying. If your efforts to improve yourself result in your ability to secure a fortune, then you will find yourself in shape to en­joy it. But if, on the ojher hand, neglecting self-improvement, yon are continually grasping for dollars, though you may in time reach your object, you will find yourself dissatis­fied, and when the end of life comes, though you may leave a fortune for others to squander, you will look back with regret, over years of toil and longing for an end that has nev­er been reochi d.

B. Par­ker, John Purtill, and Lucius Parker. W ith the mill was sold about thirty acres of land adjoining. The price paid was in the neigborhood of $11,- 000. There will be no change in the management of the mill, the old su­perintendent Mr. Purtill, remaining in charge.

Mrs. J. D. Pickles and three chil­dren were in a carriage standing in front of BLssell’s when the horse took fright at a freight train and began to rear. Mr. Bissell stood at the horse’s head until Mrs. Pickles, thinking she could manage the horse, started to drive away. The animal’s bridle had been displaced by his struggles in Mr. Bissell’s hands, and as soon as he was released he started for the freight train that was still moving on the main track. Mrs. Pickles was powerless to control him, and he had clambered up the steep embankment, pulling the loaded carriage after him, and was on the main track when several men seized him and threw him down. The c .rriage was speed­ily unloaded, but later, when the horse, morerj.quiet, had l*eea hitched into the cariiage again,’ Mri. Pickles got in again and pluckily drove home.

vr« pvt A sail in tbi

va our cea\ was not in working order, so we oioS more put in to dock. An hour's work fixed the centre-board and at 4 p. m. we once more hoisted sail and slipped out of the harbor. Passing the Pequot and Osprey beach, we entered Fisher’s Island Sound and headed for Block Island, but as the breeze died away we put into Ston- ington. Johnnie’s precautions against seasickness produced

A DITFEBENT MALADY,

but a few doses of Dr. Chadwick’s Hot Drops” straightened him out

all right With this single exception the party are all well. We found Stonington a very hot place: most of the boys slept on deck. The butcher caused us some alarm about 1 a . m . The heat, together with re­clining on his back, threatened se­rious difficulty. He was promptly placed on deck in an upright posi­tion, and the difficulty was overcome. At 4 a . m . on the 27th, we weighed anchor and once more set out for Block Island. The wind was not fa­vorable, and we were not long in as­certaining that we were in for ten or twelve hours slow sailing, and made our calculations accordingly. All hands put on old clothes that we might lounge. Robbins evidently had not given his wardrobe a very careful inspection, as he was surprised to find a hole in the right knee of the pants. The antiquity of the pattern caused a query, which was promptly answered,—that “ the pants were my father’s.” This explained the cause of the hole. Having donned the garment he stretched himself on deck for his eighteen hours’ sleep. He is

Holland and Dr. Chadwick had en­gaged to beat the butcher and cook at a game of authors, and was fast doing so when the butcher complain­ed that the steady watching of the cards made him feel imwell, and the cook was troubled the same way; both looked sick. The butcher soon after went to the bow of the boat and made a full and open confession, and found it good for the stomach. The cook wanted to but dare not for fear of losing his boots as be said. Johnnie has entirely recovered. The constable takes bis medicine regular­ly. ‘We arrived at Block Island at noon. Found Mr. Andrew Rock­well and Mrs. P. P. Wright, of Man-

This jamount is allowed for the expenses of twenty schools in all the districts, and in two districts a Avinter term of |6 weeks in addition, making an ap­propriation for an aggregate of 752 Week’s schools! Certainly, Avhatcvcr may be said of our loAvit officials, they can hardly be accused of lavish expenditures for educational pur­poses. There are two of the dis-

Itricts, the first and second, that do not .restrict their expenses to the

^ n o n n t appropriated, and there it to be more that should either

SOUTH GLASTONBURY..^ The prospects for a good supply of ■coal in this place for the coming Avinter appear very fair at this writ­ing, inasmuch as our corpulent and shrewd neighbor, Mr. Hudson Alger, has this week received a cargo of some 500 tons of as fine a quality of coal as has been landed in this tow n in a number of years ; and the know­ing ones are already awake to this fact, and arc taking advantage there­of by storing up several tons c.'ich for their household use in cold Aveatber, and at a price that is not likely to be undersold by any dealer here this season, viz., $6 per ton for cash. Neighbor Barrows will in all probability find some difficulty in getting beneath these figures. At all events “ Hud ” says so, and he ought to know.

W e thought of writing to you dear Herald, something this week about the dry weather, the dust, the heat, and the evil effects produced thereby upon the potatoes, corn and tobacco crops, together with the detriment done by these agencies to the garden products; but as the ma­jority of your readers are Ho doubt apprised of these passing events, and would not consider an article written thereon as “ news,” we pass the sub- . ects over in silence, and are fully determined to say nothing whatever about them.

You have no doubt heard of the little racket at Bill Post’s restaurant the other night, where the “ boys” amused themselves by hurling cobble stones through tbe French plate glass windoAA'S of this establishment, much to tbe amusement of tbe “boys” and the chagrin and discom­fiture of the Falstaffian landlord,who rushed Avildly through the streets in quest of a policeman, and soon re­turned to the seine of the “bombard­ment,” only to find that the assailants had ceased their attacks and sought the quiet and seclusion of a “ retreat” to Cotton Hollow, where they quietly remained for the night, and allowed the much excited Post to seek anew the arms of the rosy God of Sleep.

It being “ Emancipation day” our African fellow citizens were out in full force. They invaded Rocky Point, and held posession “ from early morn to dewy eve.” There seemed to he n*j rivalry, but a generous emulation. Liberty, equality and fraternity appeared to be the motto that governed tlpc masses on the boat, at the swing, on the fly­ing horses; and when two hoys rode the lion together, it would be one white and one colored lad.

A Picture W orth B eh oldiag.Hanging between two small windows,

and catching the light from a larger one opposite, in one of the offices of- Adam Express . Company, at 59 Broadway, New York—the office occupied by Mr,VV. H. Hall, head of the delivery depart- ruen—is a plainly finished but neatly framed chronio about 2) 0 by 3 feet in size, which is looked upon by hundreds of people daily, on many of whom it has a wonderful and salutary effect. It represents a flight of half a dozen rough stone steps leading from the swarded bank of a placid lake to a little rustic temple set in the rugged side of the mountain which rises in stupendous pf^: portions in the background all covefeS with a rank luxuriant growth of folisge in brush anil tree. In the open door o f this little temple stands a half conceal^ figure, with an arm and hand extendedi^ holding forth a small, dimly defined' package, while seated on the sward at the foot of the steps an aged pilgrim, barefooted, lame and decrepid. bears a staff in one hand, and in the other holds before his dim eyes a small bottle, whose label he eagerly scans. This label bears the words '•St Jacobs Oil, the Great German Remedy.” Simple as this little chromo appears in its unostenta­tious position, it has an influence which it would be difficult to estimate. “ It Is to that picture and the persuasions of Ml - Hall,” said Mr. Edward J. Douglass, a- gentleman connected with Mr. HallTs dei partment, “ that lowe my present abilit;^ to perform my work. Some weeks ago was violently attacked with sciatic rheumatism, and hour by hour I grew worse, and nothing my famlli^ or the doctor could do gave me any"- 4pllef. I began to think in a few days >at my case was hopeless and that I was doomed to be an invalid and helpless cripple for life. But at last 1 thought of that picture which I had so often looked at with but little interest, and then Mr. Hall came to my bedside, and telling mo how St. Jacobs Oil had cured him of a worse and longer standing case than mine, urged me to use the same remedy.1 did so that very night, directing my wife not to spare it but- to apply it thoroughly according to the directions ; this she did with a large piece of flannel cloth saturated with the Oil. and then bound the cloth to the affected parts The next morning I was free from pain, and although a little sore in the hip, was able to dress myself, and the next day resumed my duties in the office as soi.nd as a dollar. Here I am now in full health and strength, having had no touch of rheumatism or other pain since. When­ever I see one of our drivers or any otuer person who shows any symptoms, qj. lameness or stiffness, I point him to the picture in Mr. Hall’s office, and then di­rect him to go for St. Jacobs Oil at once.” — .V. r .

CONCERNING WOMEN.

‘i.-'.

The Des Moines (La.) Leadei' says: “ The next legislature will have to submit the woman suffrage amendment, and in 1884 the wo­men will vote in tins state.’ '

The Misses Littell, who carry on the L ivin g A ge left them by their father, are highly intellectual wo- uien, whose critical acumen is evidenced by the value of the si'lee- tions which make up the m.agazine.

Miss Agnes Harris, o f St. Clair County, Missouri, for two years teacher o f music in the Fayetteville College; carried off the first prize at the commencement exercises of the Cincinn.ati College of Music last week.

The "Woman’s Silk Culture Asso­ciation h.'is during the past year es­tablished an auxiliary association in Alabama, and steps arc being taken for the formation o f one in New York and another in Florida.

J t is no^ generally known but is nevertheless true, that by a law passed in 1809, women arc entitled to vote and hold office in parish and religious societies in Massachusetts on the same terms as men.

Ml'S. Rutherford B . Hayes, Presi­dent of the W om an’s Home Mission­ary Society of the M. E. Church, presided at meetings held at Chau­tauqua, July 28, in the interest of that Association.

Miss Kate Upson Clark is associate editor of G ood Cheer, a family monthly published in Charlemont, Mass. The paper is edited wholly by a woman, has a women’s depart­ment, and wid help along the wo­man’s cjiiise whenever opportunity offers.

Sarah Radcliffc lectured at the vestry o f the Second Baptist church, in Springfield, Mass., last week, on “ The Education of the Blii.d.” Miss Radcliffe is a graduate o f the Per­kins Institute for the blind, and her lecture is said to be very interesting.

Miss Annie M. Kittredge, so long and favorably known in connection with the W est Newton English and Chissical School, has been appointed teacher o f Latin and German at the State Normal School at Framing­ham, a position for which she is ad­mirably qualified.

The Sioux City (la .) Journal says: “ The women o f Iowa have won their first distinctive victory in a popular election. They bad no ballots of their own to cast, but through their influence a public sentiment was created that made the majority of the ballots at tiieir own bands would bare pat.

Polygmny is a dis|p*ace which is realized in every Mormon home. In every Mormon home the plural wives and their children arc looked upon as tainted. This is made evident by the anxiety o f all such women and cbidren to pass themselves off as the first wives or children of first wives. And it is further made evi. dent by the quarrels which constantly occur in such families, and by the epithets which first wives and child­ren bestow upon the others.— Salt Lake Tribune.

Dr. Anita E. Tyng, of Providence, R. I., has accepted the position of Chief Physician of the Philadelphia W om en’s Hospital. The position involves great responsiblities, having under its direction four physicians, a large maternity, dispensary, clinics, and a training school for nurses. Dr. Tyng has sailed from Boston on the steamer Palmyra, intending to spend two months in inspecting some o f the hospitals o f Europe. She will re­turn, the first o f S^U m ber, to enter on her new work in Philadelphia.

A society to promote “ rational dress” has been formed in England. The Viscountess Habbertou is jircsi- dent. They announce their object to be first, to promote the adoption, according to individual taste and

-ooDvemence, o f a style o f dress based upon considerations of health, com­fort and beauty, and to deprecate constant changes o f hashioii, which cannot be recommended on any of these grounds; and second, to pro­mote their objects by means of draw­ing room meetings, advertisements, circulating pamphlets, leaflets, etc., and also by issuing patterns which meet the approval o f the committee.

Some years ago, when the news­papers annonneed that an eminent woman suffrage speaker was about to prepare for the bar, an indignant young lawyer remarked that he should never be able to listen to a woman’s argument in court without being led to think o f mince pies. “ You had better not take up the side opposed to her,” said an older, lawyer, “ or you will be led to think of mince­meat.” It is from the mince-meat critics, from those who cannot them­

selves do a given thing so well as a great many women could do it, that the sharpest criticism of women’s .alleged incompcteiicy comes.

Mrs. Mary Todd Lincoln, the wife of Abraham Lincoln, wrote, when a young girl, a letter in which she cx- pr' ssed a determination to become the wife of a president. The story is confirmed by the production of the document, now in the possession of General I ’restou, of Lexiiigloii, Ky. It was addressed to a daughter of Governor W ickliff, and contained, a playful description of young Lincoln, to whom she was betrothed. She said; “ But I mean to make him pres­ident of the L^nited St.atos all the s.amc. You will see that, as I alw.ays told you, I will yet be the jn-esident’s wife.’’ And so she was.

Miss Fannie Parnell, whose-siuldcii death last week, at Bordertown, N. J., aged 26, will be lamented by Irish men and women everywhere, was a young woman of decided gen­ius, in whose heart love for Ireland was an all-consuming passion. Henry George aptly referred to her as the Joan of Arc of tin Land League movement. She had all the French girljs enthusiasm cc^rtainly, was no. less self-denying, and, though a good deal more reasonable, was perhaps as courageous. Her poetry, though not of a high order in point of imagi­nation, is charged with fire, often ex­hibits great tenderness, and at all times breathes the spirit of the move­ment with which the name of her brother is so con spicuously identified It is the literal truth to say that she laid down her life for Ireland, Her vitality was as completely exh austed by her labors with her pen and in" the work of organization as though her blood had been shed on the field of battle. She was a delicately form­ed, refined looking and naturally retiring lady.

Mrs. A . S. Duniway, the indefatig­able editor o f the Neio N ortlw ett, is making another lecturing tour through Oregon. Some pseudo-scien­tific reasoners claim that a woman’s “ energy” cannot equal a man’s, be­cause fewer atoms go to make up her body, "What would they say of a woman who has for years edited a flourishing and successful woman suffrage weekly paper, writing the serial stories for it herself, and preaching the gospel of equal rights throughout her State, with voice as well as pen? A Massachusetts legis­lator a few years since delivered him­self o f the startling prophesy that if woman’s rights prevailed, there would be no more children bom in, iMassachusetts, and all the children

“ Sweet Curing Seeds” was the tranS' lation o f the name given to Ayer’s Pills by a high mandarin o f China, in his let­ter o f acknowledgment and thanks to Dr. Ayer for having introduced them into the Celestial Empire—a very appropriate name ! They are sweet, they cure, and are, therefore, the most profitable “ seeds” a sick man can invest in.

■ Adriee to Toung Men.

R . J. Burdette, in the Burlington Hdvekeyt, giyes “ A dvice to a Y ou ng Man” as follow s:

“ You say you demand the noblest type o f useful womanhood in your wife. I f that is tbe sort o f a woman you want, marry Nora Mulligan, your laundress’s daughter. She wears cowhide shoes, is guiltless of corsets, never had a sick day in her life, takes in washing, goes out house- cle.aning, and cooks for a family of seven children, her mother, and two section men, who board with her. I don’ t think she would marry yon, be­cause Con. Regan, the track-walker, is her style of a man. Let us examine into your qualifications as a model husband, after your own matrimonial ideas, my boy. Can you shoulder a barrel o f flour and carry it down to the cellar ? Can you saw and split ten cords of hickory wood in the fall, so as to have ready fuel all winter ? Can you spade up half an acre of ground for a kitchen garden ? D o you know what will take the limey taste out o f the new cistern, and can you patch the leak in the kitchen roof? Can you bring hom i a pane o f glass, and a wad o f putty, and re­pair damages in the sitting-room win­dow ? Can you hang sj.iie i'.r.-;!|i paper on the kitchen ? Can you fix the front gate so it will not sag ? Can yon do an^hing about the/ house that Coil Regan can ? M y dear boy, you see why Nora Mulligan will have none o f y o u ; she wants .-i higher type o f true manhood. Y ou expect to hire men to do all the man’s work about the house, but you want your wife to do everything that any wo­man can do. Believe me, my dear son, that nine-tenths o f the girls who play piano and sing so charmingly, whom you in your limited knowledge se? down as ‘mere butterflies of fashion,’ are better fitted for wives than you are for a husband. I f you want to marry a first-class cook and experienced housekeeper, do your courting in the intelligence office. But if you want a wife, marry the girl you love, with dimpled hands and a face like the sunlight, and her love will teach her all these things, my boy, long before you have learned one-half of your own lesson.”

^ rest or relieve themselves by assuming a position which is not only ungraceful, but unnat­ural and unhealthy, and are often permanently injured thereby. To rest the back, it is not al­ways necessary to incline the body to tbe rear. The body may lean forward, but If there is a something against which the back may bo pressed, ft aaords a sense of support, a feeling of case which can be obtained in no (Hher way, and really forma a. tme rest. The ordinary piano-stooi is not a comfortable scat under any circumstances, yet no material improvement was made upon the original design until this Back Piano Chair was Invented. Although this Chair has been before the public but a short time. It has alreai^ attracted marked attention, and has gahied the highest approval of all who have tes- ted Iw We are confident that It will fully meet tbe needs of thousands who have long been hop­ing and anxiously looking for some sneh im­provement.
