A Spring Poem, The bluebird flits through the branches baro, Where the snowbird etst was seen, And southern slopes show patches where The grass is growing green. The robin, perched on a bending spray, Alternately cloth sing • To the dying winter a requiem lay And apnea to the spring. Qn the cleared off walk by the garden fence The cheerful sparrows flop, And now wo have every confidence That coal will take a drop. 'd.u.eatlon and Housework.. 1 used to bslieve very :nteusely in the oontno❑ sense of the unlearned, I fancied that those who would not read books would the better read nae ,tune, and kite lessons from experience. .1 leave altered my blind on that subject, and now declare that educat- •ed women, who, after years, spent in cooking, know not of its principles, and during a life of house -maid's work lave not goc et the simplest souret of Olean linen and order, I realize, that I Aiave 'beets mistaken. For behold, when Nora departs and •Ttoxanna follows, becianse of Miasases dnteiforency, ou an occasion of ra meat and i'urnt pudding,a grttJuate of Vassar, delieaie, small•arrned and un- accustomed to toil, enters the hitehen and proceeds to elneidato those pro- blems which have been inysteriee un- solvable to those raised iu their midst. No one needs to tell her that, ker- osene will l;ltrite, the flames burn, and boilers horst under curtain conditions. It never occurs to her to rrike the fire with a tablespoon, and beat the eggs with a stove lifter, and leave the tea -kettle ou the range dry, and has. ing placed a chop on a gridiron, allow it to broil itself, rushing back with a shriek when it blazes. She can boil a potato beautifully, acid ii aware that our apples stewed in iron, become a hlack a•)d poisonous mass. She will make: coffee that will fill the house with fragrance, with the same opportunities that yesterday morning produced a sluggish, yellow drink, disgusting_ alike to sight and taste. Awful mysteries pertaining to dam - Fere, faucets, Elopers and wringers, seem clear to her at a glance, She can wash her own china tor a year without chipping it, and sweep without filling the house with a cloud of dust. Of course the work is not congenial to her. She retires from ,t at last very weary, and not anxious to begin it again; but at least she tits done rt 'well, and without setting those man traps for herself and family that aisy- one is usu:tlIv aefe t t find in ati kitchen And which carry so many s:. r vents to ,the hospital.

The Blood is the Life, Runs the old saying, and everything that ever makes part of any organ of the body must reach its place therein through the blood. Therefore, if the blood is puri- fied and kept in good condition by the use of Flood's Sarsaparilla, it necessarily fol- lows that the benefit of the medicine is im- parted to every organ of the body.. Cain anything be simpler than the method by which this excellent medicine gives good health to all who try it fairly and patient- ly? Her First Markoting. She was a graduate of Girton Col- lege, England, and when she married Julius Augustus Smythe, was very mush like vnother young lady who has been embalmed in song: Miss Pallas Andora von Blurky, Who didn't know chicken from turkey High Spanish and Greek she could fluently speak But her knowledge of poultry was murky. H;Iwever, she told Julius Augustus that she was a good housekeeper be- cause her mother and grandmother were, and it ran in the family. So,ou the strength of this, he went into houtlekeeping. She bought a sweet little morocco covered note book -and tui embroidered' market basket, and carried a gold pencil, wore an aesthetic morning costume, and appeared like a vision of delight before the magnates of the cleaver at the Central Market. Oh, the dear, sweat;. cunning li:tee pigs, she exclaimed, stopping at an alderman►c stand where several little roasters were on exhiiiition. I'll take a coeple of these ; how rnuoh are they a pit. ? A sovereign for two, was the real- istic tlswer. lsn't that rather high I I guess I'll' take a yard of beef iuetead, and sore —Oh, yes—solve sweet breads. Julius said he wanted some; nice, fresh ones please, with plenty of raisins in them. Then she stepped over to a poultry stall :— Have you .any chickens? she asked t•.f the woman in attendance. Heaps of them, was the reply. How much do they cost a heap!' she asked in rather a faint voice. Two shillings apiece, tniy'm. \Yell, send me a piece to my resin dente, and she turned to the next stall and picked up some liitle pack- ages that looked very nice. What•is this sweet stuff that smells so levelly ? she asked of a red-headed boy behind the table. Limburger, Misa, and its just splendid; tastes ever so much better than it smells --have one'1 She took one and then asked the boy where they sold their quail on toast. Ain't any in the market, answers the young reprobate. Mother's gon after a load, though, and we'll sen, you some soon as they're 1N. • Mutt are these lovely navy blu berries' she enquired. They will jus match ruy china. You may send me bushel. Finally she, decided to buy a qe art which she carried hersell' in the artis tic basket. Have you any hen fruit 1 she askec Sweetly of on old fellow in a whit apron. • • He scratched his ear with a pend for• a moment. ;Tebbe you mean eggs 7 he volunteered. These she also took charge of,as she wanted to make an omelet for Julius Aiigustus. . But she never did ; or rather when she got home, the omelet was made with a liberal admixture of blackber- ries! and the front of her aesthetic dress was ruined. Added to this was an odour which .sect Julius into spasms and frightened the cat to death. The limburger had melted. The Girton girl did justice to the high Spanish and Greek in the expla- nation that followed, and the next day they burned the morocco notebook- and went to boarding.—.Baltimore Ameri- can, • Rebecca Wilkinson, of Browusvalley Ind., says: "I had been in a distress's, condition, for three years from Nervoud nest's.

For eight years I was troubled with a sore on my leg which resulted from having it broken. The doctors kept nie in bed five months trying to heal it up, but all to no purpose. I tried all sorts of salves, liniments, ointments, pills and blood medicines but with no benefit. In 1883 it became so bad that I had to sit on one chair and keep niy foot on an- other for four months. I could not put niy foot on the ground or the blood would rush out in a stream and my leg swelled to twice its natural size. ELEVEN RUNNING SORES developed on it which reduced me to a living skeleton (I lost 70 lbs. in four months). Friends advised me to go to the Hospital: but i cvnnldT „nh_fnv T kn env_ \Votnen mil! sotnetttnes con ess their sins, hitt I never knew one to confess her fall' ts.—Fla'lhurton. Cauno and Effect. Coughs and colds aro the cause, if ne- glected, of consumption. It is therefore inuch better to cure them at once by the use of Itagyard's Pectoral Balsam, the safe, sure and reliable remedy for all dig - oases of the throat and lungs.
