Advantages of Roughing It.
A new feature, or rather experiment,
in the training of lads, has become of
late popular in some of the Middle
States. It is to send the young man
fresh from college, perhaps, and elated
with scholastic or athletic honors, to
herd sheep or cattle for a year on a
Western ranch. At first thought this
treatment seems rough, almost brutal.
But it ususually proves wholesome, as a
cold douche to an enervated body. A
lad subjected to this treatment for a
year, tried daily only by the courage,
common-sense, shrewdness, and down
right force that is in him, comes back
with "much of the nonsense taken out
of him," and with a broad outlook over
the world, and a firm comprehension of
reality and of conventional falsities,
which years of town life would not give
him. Added to all this is the thorough
strengthening of his physical forces in
the pure and hard out -door work. Many
a petted, weakly stripling might be
saved from death, or en efficient, sickly
life, by a year of exile on the prairies.
Water as a Fat Producer.
A discovery of vital interest in social
science is alleged to have been made in
the recent assertion of some anonymous
scientific man that it is not food but
water which makes us fat. If this is true
it would seem to throw a new light on
a large number of disputed questions.
If adipose tissue is a deeirable thing,
then the work of the prohibitionist
should be supported with unanimous
approval, that we may become a sleek
and well -contented nation.
There is, however, room for dispute
as to whether mere fat should be en-
couraged. Caesar is represented by
Shakespeare as wanting none but fat
men about him. But there is every
reason for belief that the great Roman
preferred fat -men because they would
take things easily and would not disturb
his rule by any restless attempts at
liberty. This would indicate that lean
men will be better for the leadership of
a free people. There is room for suspi-
cion that the professional politicians
have had a secret knowledge of this
discovery far many years, and in order
t� keep, themselves in condition for the
defense of freedom have guarded against
the accumulation of fat by drinking no
water at all, and keeping strictly to
whisky.
The Smallpox Dodge.
A chap, who had, perhaps, read a
newspaper item about how a street par
was cleared of passengers in short order
when a man in the centre of the car an-
nounced that he bad the smallpox,
tried the game on a Gratiot Avenue
oax. Getting aboard the car on Monroe
Avenue, he sat down beside a big fisted
man and remarked: "I don't suppose
you object to riding beside a smallpox
patient, do you ?" "Not in the least re-
plied the big man; " bat as some of
the other passengers may, I shall heave
you out !" Thereupon he took the
joker by the collar and leg, carried him
to the platform, and shot him far out
into a big snow drift.
A Deadly Industry.
It may not be generally known that
the elaborate icing that imitates frost
and ice on Christmas cards and crack-
ers is done by scattering the finest par-
ticles of , ground glass over gummed
cards. These tiny atoms gets into the
lungs of the unfortunate girls and.
women employed in the manufacture,
and either kill them or render them
very soon almost helplese invalids. In-
deed, the danger is so well-known that
few English girls can be found to under-
take the business, and small German
Jewesses are usually employed, because
they are generally anxious to make
money, and do not mind the cost.
Epsom salts can be employed instead,
and often are; but the glass is so much
cheaper that it is generally used, and
always at the cost of so much suffering
that we trust a word in season may
seaail much.
Tired Eyes.
People speak about their eyes being
fatigued, meaningthat the retina, or
seeing portion of the brain is fatigued,
but such is not the case, as the retina
hardly ever gets tired. The fatigue is
in the inner and outer muscles attach-
ed to the eye ball and the muscle of
accommodation, which surrounds the
lens of the eye. When a near abject is
to be looked at, this muscle relaxes and
allows the lens to thicken, increasing
its refractive power. The inner and
outer muscle to which I referred are
used in covering the eye on the. object
to be looked at. It is in the three
muscles mentioned that the fatigue is
felt, and relief is secured temporarily
by closing the eyes or gazing at far dis-
tant objects. The usual indication of
strain is a redness of the rim of the eye-
lid, betokening a congested state of the
inner surface, accompanied with some
pain. Rest is not the proper remedy
for a fatigued eye, but the use of glasses
of sufficient power to render unnecessary
so much effort to accommodate the eye
to vision.—Scientific American.
Beecher on Evolution.
"The horse, like man, has come to
perfection through the processes -of
evolution. We have in Professor
Marsh's splendid collection of the re-
mains of the ancient horse, in Yale
College museum, the bones of this inter-
esting anInaal dating back 50.000 years.
Here we find the frame of an animal no
bigger than a fox, and with five toes,
bat undoubtedly a horse. Next we
have him as big as a calf, then with
three toes, and finally with the frame of
the domestic animal of to day. There
ea,n be ate doubt that the horse of the
pre -historic pariod had five toes and a
wide spreading foot to enable him to
walk on the marshy ground of that
period. Then as the marshes gave place
to firm ground the back toes, from lack
of use and censequeat leek of nourish-
ment; shrunk away and became joined
under thee knee of the horse where
anatomists are puzzledto find a use of
them. They arenoW called the splint
bone and work nothing but mischief
when they do anything at all. As the
habits of the anipaal changed. all but
one of the toes Were lost, end the horse
of to -day was prodUced."
From your boaversation I would
gather that you are a believer in the
Darwinian theory of evolution ?"
"I am, implicitly, up to a certain
point. That is, I believe that all ani-
mal life was evolved from the lowest
form, bat I do not couple agnosticism
with my evolution. I believe that evolu-
tion is the unfolding of God's mighty
plan, which for ages he has been prom
paring for the grand preftenW ,
" Do you believe that mad has arriv-
ed at the summit of this scale of evolu-
tion ?"
" I have not yet made up my Mind
-aboat that. I do not think that there,
is anything in man that indicate that
he is liable to become physically more
nearly perfect, although he is adv teeing
mentally, no doubt."—New York Cons
nieroial Advertiser.
Folly That is Crime.
More than thirty years ago a m n, no
doubt considered by myeelf and tthers
a gentleman, removed a chair upon
which a lady was to sit. The lad had
doubtless entered into the spirit o frolic
which prompted the act. Had th man
taken the chair and brained her iu the
spot he would have been committtd for
murder. But instant death woul have
been infinitely preferable to the t rture
which that thoughtless act entail:d. A
sprightly and intelligent wometa was
transformed into a bed ridden en' erer,
whose agony was so great at time as to
almost deprive her of reason.
For nearly thirty years she endured
pain which no pen could portray.
Scores of times have her friends beard
her pray that the cup of her suldl:ring,
which was full to overflowing, ht be
removed by death. The autopsy r treat-
ed the cause of this terrible agony. ,The
fall had fractured the lower bulbar
vertebrae. The fracture had re • ained
ununited. The resulting inflamu ation
had caused disease of the adjoinin • Ver-
a:dine and the spinal cord.
Were this the only case of the kind
coming under my noticenit seems tome
I should be fully justified in lifti g up
my voice and pen against the th ught-
less and dangerous practice men toned
above. But this is the fourth c se to
which my attention has been ailed
within as many years in which eath
hs resulted from _having a chai re-
moved from the person about to sit.—

Church Going in the Hiala-
lands.
In. the Highlands, as at hoin , the
orthodox Presby terian,like Lon °fellow's
village blacksmith, "goes on S nday
to the church" with the whole o his
family—at least once. He does not,
however, appear to hold himself sound
much further in that line. He does
not, for example, deem it sinful to take
a walk on Sunday afternoon. Bu he
would. not on any account be seen row-
ing on the loch at that time or on that
particular day. He will not give '-atan
the chance of providing mischief f r his:
idle hands to do, but he is not so hary
about the exercising of his feet. The
_consequence is that the evening s rvice
Is regarded as atrobserva.nce that may
be skipped with impunity. An& t is
skipped. A few Sundays ago, in a par-
ish church not one hundred miles from
where I write, the evening servic was
so poorly attended that the minist r en-
tered the pulpit only to dismiss the
very small congregation with a benedic-
tion,. and with the remark that the
meagre attendance did not warran him
in entering further on the service. But
he kept the coppers; the collection Was
not " returned at the doors." Th COL:
lection, nevertheless, is a strong °int
in Highland churches. A famous igh-
land minister once announced fo the
following Sabbath a collection for
eign missions, which he said word
taken at the Gaelic and the En
services, so that "everyone would

The Highlanders, too, are not
cuitomed to having blank Sundays

of one patriarch, that "there will

beadle, or minister's man, is a gre

foundation of shrewdness and self

Mr. Gladstone and His Ayr-
shire Antecedents.
To Priesthill, a name fandous in Cov-
enanting memories, many a pi grim
journeys, but few of these may have
noticed near by the ruins of a ouse.
There at one time lived a ens omer
weaver—and a great sbcial figure a hun-
dred years ago were these same wab-
eters "—and when the weaver of oar -
lone on a golden July mornin wa.s
trudging from his home 'mid the mist
with his blooming " dochtor " b his
side, little did he think in time to come
he would be reckoned among the rela-
tives of a king amongst men. A civil
engineer being smitten with the llow
ribbon of that same weaver's " doc ter,"
married her and settled in Live pool,
where he amassed a fortune. que of
their daughters became the' wle of
Herbert Gladstone, and mother cf the
illustrious Wm. E wart Gladstone.
Catarrh—a Nev Treatme t.
Perhaps the most extraordinar suc-
cess that has been achieved in m dern
medicine has been attained b the
Dixon treatment for Catarrh. Out of
2000.patients treated. during the pest
six months, fully ninety per cent. have
been cured of this stubborn In tidy.
This is none the less startling wh n it
is remembered that no five per ce t. of
patients presenting themselves to the
regular practitioner are benefitted, hile
the patent -medicines and other a ver-
tised cures never record a cure a all.
Starting with the claim now gene ally
believed by the most scientific men that
the disease is due to the presenae of
living parasites in the tissue. Mr. I ixon
at once adapted his cure to their ext rm-
ination—this accomplished, he el inis
the Catarrh is practically cured, and
the permanency is unquestione , as
cures effected by him four years ago
are cures still. No one else has ver
attempted to cure Catarrh in this AI an-
ner, and no other treatruept has ver
cured Catarrh. The application of the
remedy is simple, and ca.n be dote at-
home., and the present. season o the
year is the most favorable for a sp edy,
and permanent, cure, the majority of
cases being cured ate one treatment.

Our halo was born in Edinburgh in the year 1825 and his father, who was
in some wa connected in Her Majesty's Navy, died,'laving eying him with no ( earth-
ly friend al) e in the gr at metropolis of Scotland, a barefooted, penniless boy.
Nothing da nted, he stil preserved a kind father's advice to be honest and in-
dustrious, and through t me, by reading signs on shop doors and during nights
from pieces of newspap rs picked up amongst his acvaintance, he acquired a
taeite for stpaly,and, as e was dependent upon his ;own. resources, he had to
acoeist workin a livery stable, but being saving, in a few years was able to pur-
chase a call and horge. This was his first step to fortune. He amassed in -a
few ears a lonsiders,ble sum of money, with which lie emigrated to Americ,
but &posure in his previus vocation as cab driver, brought on an affection of
the lungs, baffling the best medical aid both in the Old Country and America.
His epirits were droopin , and his wealth was beginning to dwindle down by
expenses in travelling fr m place to place after the best medical aid. After ea-
hatiSting money on mediloines he was in despair, when an old friend advised him
to g� to Canada, and tr C. Duncan's Cough Syrup, 'which is a sure cure for
