Thought His Time Had Come.
Por twenty years• an old man of our
*may, whom we will call jack Bald-
win, haa cultivated the soil and drawn
therefroxa support for himself and his
wife; he is childless. Not long -since
jack left his house in search of a miss-
ing cow. His route led him through an
eId worn-out piece of clay land of about
sin sores_ in extent, m the• centre of
which leas a well about thirty feet deep
that at some time had probably furnish -
ea the inmates of a dilapidated house
near by with water. In passing the
spot an ill wind drifted- jack's bat 'from
his head and raalioiously wafted it to
the edge of the well and it tumbled in.
Now, Jack had always itiaotised the
virtue of economy, and ,he immediately
set about recovering his hat. He ran
to the well, and finding that it was dry
at the bottom he unrolled the rope
which he had brought for the purpose
of capturing the Pow, and after several
attempts to catch the hat with a noose
he oonoluded to save time by going down
into the well himself. To accomplish
this he made fast one end of the rope to
a stnrap hard by, and was. soon on his
way down into the well.
It wig a fact of which Jack was less
obvious, than the reader hereof—that a
mischievous fellow, whom we will call
Neal Willis, was in the old building and
saw Jack go down into the well, and it
so happened that jack's old blind horse
was nearby with a bell on his neck.
The devil himself, or some other wicked
' spirit, put it into Neal's head to have a
little fun; so he slipped up to the old
horse, unbuckled the strap, and ap-
proached the well with the bell in his
hand„ ting a -ling. Jaok thought the old
korse was coming, and said, in an audi
ble tone: "Hang the blind horse, heti
00mile this way, sure, and he ain't get
no more sense than to fall in here on
ine—wq, Ball I" But the sound of the
hell came closer, and Jack was resting
at the bottom of the well. "Great
Jerusalem 1" said Jack, Jkie old blind
fool will be right 011 top of e in a rainit
—wo, Ball—wo, haw, Bi
-
I" Just
then Neal got close to the well and
kieleed a little dirt on Jack's head.
Jack thought Ball about -49 come, got
close to the side of the well and began
to pray: "Oh, Lord, have mercy on—
wo, Ball—a poor einner—I'm gone now
--wo, Ball—Our Father who art in--
wo, Ball—heaven, hallowed be Thy—
jee! Ball, jee 1 what'll I do ? —name.
Now I lay me down to sl—jee, Ball, out
of your livers 1 (just then in fell more
dirt) back, Bali; Oh, Lord, if yo ti ever
intend to do anything for me—baok,
Ball, wo, wo—Thy kingdom oome—jee,
Ball—Oh, Lord, you know I was bap-
tized in Smith's mill dam—wo, Ball,
ho'un! murder 1 w --farewell world."
Neal cotdd hold out 120 longer
and showed himself at the top of the
well, with a big horse laugh which
might have been heard two miles. Thii
was more than Jack could bear and he
started 'up the rope like a monkey.
"Darn your picture, i'll give you fists;
I'll make your ears ring worse 'an that
bell.'" Neal took to his heels and. ran
like a quarter horse and the last that
was seen of him I he was half a mile
from the well, with two big dogs grab-
bing at his coat and Jack close behind
him.

Pure Air for Children.
Many mothers oversee with great oare
the ' diet of their young children; the
nourialtiug oatmeal porridge and pure,
inilk are caireftdly supplied, and few are
the children accustomed to any variety
�f food who do not see on some tempt-
ing dish the ban of mother's dieappro-
val. -She takes the same care to supply -
pure air; rooms are often aka, and
any intrusion of sewer gas, or anything
else of a hrtrtfal nature, is vigilantly
guarded against in the home.
But there her power ends; her chil-
dren spend a laege portion of their
waking hours in schnol, bnt the tender
-care which elsewhere surrounds them
day and night, cannot enter those crowd-
ed portals. Nowhere is that care
more needed. _Enter the school -room
which the 'city prpvides for your little
orieselear the close of the session; as you
*pen the door, coming from the pure
enter air, you almost gasp for breath.
Here perhaps are sixty little children,
many of them weeeing clothes not only
soiled, but filled with the 'mingled odors
e their poor homes, and their bodies,
perhaps never thormighly bathed since
their babyhood. What a volume of
pure air it must take to replace that
poisoned by the impurities thrown off not
-only by such bodies, . but by sixty pairs
ef lungs! One bare school house in
Boston, Chauncy Hall, justly claims to
he thoroughly ventilated; but this re-
sult is accomplished at such a large ex-
pense that We cannot expect the system
to be eraployed in the public schools.
A celebrated writer on sanitary subjects
is quoted in the jOurnal of Edncation
as saying that children ought never to
be kept through an entire session in one
room ; the air becomes in a short time
unfit to breathe. I know that efforts
are made to keep the air pure by open-
ing windows at intervals, but such
means cannot accomplish much where
the rooms are so crowded. In addition,
the presence of water closets in the
basement:isquite evident to the visitor
up stairs. In my own neighborhood an
epidemic of diphtheria was traced di-
rectly to the defective sanitary condi-
tion of a primary school house: the
condition' of the building was improved,
but home e made deeolate and parents'
heart e sorely woueded remain to bear
witness to the evil, I once saw a class
of little children leaving school at the
end of the afternoon session. Among
them 1 recognized it dear child, an only
daughter, and the idel of her home.
Her face had an unhealthy flush, and
as she walked slowly homeward in the
declining light of the day I wished that
instead of being confined in the close
school room she might be playing out of
doors in the fresh eir. In a few weeks I
heard of het death from diphtheria, ac-
companied by an eapression of wonder
that this disease staeuld have attacked
her in her healthful home, but the
cause did not seem so mysterious to me.
Not only,shoald the air in the school-
room be- pure, but children should be
eonfined there fewer hours. A wise
physician, who had attended a little
boy through a long attack of illness, im-
pressed aeon his mother, when he be-
gan to recover, the aecessity of his being
znuch in the open air. "But," objected
the mother, "he : is subject to sore
throat, would it be well to send him out
in all weathers ?" il If the weather
is very bad, it men be necessary to
keep him in 3. ' day, but let him
out all the morn the next day
Lo make up for It." So often was
the advice repeated that tihe mother
could not but follow .it, and now the
boy in his eighth year is stout aid
strong, careless of fatigue, throwing. off
easily any cold or slight indieposition ;
ini has never been to school a day
in his life, but ependa 4n hour a
day by his mother's' si e, learn-
ing his simple tasks, ad nearly
all the rest of the day is oz4t of .doors.
How different it is with a c ild who is
sent to school before the un is very
high, in these short wintry days. He
must be in his seat, and with the excep-
tion of the intermission fori dinner, is
not released until the sun is near its
setting. Surely our young ohi dren need
nhore playtime out of doors. Herald of
Health.
The Right Man at ast t
If there were healtb in a nultitude of
medical systems, as there is said to be
wisdom in a multitude of ouncillors,
sickness would be unknown iln this age
of so-called pathological discoveries.
The homceopathists tell us t P at the sal-
vation of our lives in sicknets depends
upon infinitesimal doses a , d infinite
dilution; the hydropathists profess to
raise health upon us from sh werbaths,
or soak disease out of us with 'wet
blankets; while a still laewe set of ex-
clusiees purpose burying us ip to the
arrapits in the earth—puttin both feet
in the grave as it were, by w of saving
our lives! Then, we have eangrados,
who are all for bleeding, blist:ring, and
low diet, and mineralists, w o believe
in =thing but mercury and tis oxides.
It happens unfortunately, ho ever, for
all these theorists, that they an show
nit practical proof of the assu I; ed infal-
libility of their methods of o re. Not
so Professor Holloway,whose medicines
for the last forty years have 'annually
benefitted tens of thousands. This is
no assumption, but a fact vfrified by
the nnimpeached evidence of ti "choice
of witness." The archives ofehis offibe
in London °ordain mannscri t -certifi-
cates, authenticated in the strongest
manner, and placing beyond the possi-
bility of doubt the infallibi tty of his
Pills and Ointment in maladi ii to which
man is subject. Great B itain, -the
Continent of Europe, Indi :, China,
Australia, tie West Indiele Ilritish
America, every _civilized end, and
every country to which the poneers of
civilization, commercial and religious,
'have found their way, ring with the
fame of these all -conquering remedies.
Such is the demand for thefrfl in all
parts of the world that they may be
jestly called a great commerc al staple,
and the number of agenciee ' for their
sale amounts to tens of thous lads !
These facts speak for them elves, and.
clearly show that while so niany dog-
matists have been groping in the dark,
he has actually discovered anj applied
the true and only means of qidicating
the primary cause of disea in the

Va1ueofaCow.
Henry Stewart, in the ural New
Yorker, asks a question as to the value
of a cow that will make twen y pounds
of butter per week, and ans ers it as
follows:
"The value of the very best quality of
butter may average during se eral years
50cents a pound. The cow the produces
$10 a week, or, counting th average
length of the productive seas n at this
rate at 30 weeks, 1300 in the ear. The
cost of feeding such a oow ad to pro-
cure such a product will be e sily 12 a
week or $100 a year, leaving $ 00 a year
as profit. If she averages th 0 product
for seven years shetreturns ee owner
$1,400 and may have sev n' calves.
Now, considering the risk of such pro-
pertY in every respect it ough to pay at
least 50 per cent. per annum p its cost.
This would bring her whole *slue to
$400 at her purchase at two pars old;
and by paying him 1200 a iyear the
owner would get his money 'ack with
50 per oent. interest when th cow was
seven years old. But to this hould be
added the value of her progeny, and,
estimating a two-year-old at $400, the
price of the service of a bull lould not
be more than $1,00 even were a 20
pound -a -week cow guaranteed: But as
the proportion of Bitch cows is about
.oue in a thousand, of the Jers y calves
born, no service of a ball coal be really
worth so much; and pro ebly $25
would be nearer the mark forj the beat
bull in existence; and as th proper-
_ tion of 20 -pound- cows prodn ed from
20 -pound cows. is not more than one in
20 of the calves from a 20 -pound cow
might be reasonably 1100 e h, or $75
clear after paying the sena ft ot the
bull. This would add. on t e basis of
the computation above, $130 more for
the value of the cow as a- bre der, sup-
posing each calf, male or fe ale, were
worth $75 clear at its birth; r a total
value pf a 20 pound cow at t o years,of
1530. But as a cow cannot b expected
to be at her prime at that a e, and if
she is older she will be wort less for
each year added to her age, a d the risk
of disappointment is very gre t, no two
year-old cow, whatever her promise,
-could be reasonably worth more than
half the sum stereo menti ned, and
should be worth less than tha , becausce-
of the great risk of disapp ,intment.
So that the very highest aotua1 value of
a two-year-old candidate for he honor
of becoming a 20 -pound o w, on a
reasonable business basis, wo ld notbe
more than 1200, and a. man w o shoidd
buy to -day for dairy purposes herd of
10 of the most promising tw -Tear old
heifers for 12,000, would be iaking a
fair, business operation, and kio more.
And if there is any other ource of
actual value from Jersey cows ?r bulls,
than dairy purposes, I don't k ow of it.
The canclusion, therefore, is that no
dairyman or farmer can afford to give
more than 1200 even for a heifer pro-
mising 20 pounds of butter a tvl ek when
mature; and of course all th4t might
be paid in excess of that amo nt, may
be called the fancy price, and he 'brio-
a-brao' value of the animal, pad merely
for the pleasure of owning it. jf course,
no limit san be placed an this yalue, as
it depends wholly upon' the f lacy and
the pocket of the ultimate o'er, and
the speculative recklessness of the
intermediate dealer."
