A .ick person should never unletany cir- cumstances be awakened from sleep frith nit the sanction of the physician. Once awaken- ed after a short nap, a patient can rarely fall asleep again; while, had he slept a few hours before being aroused, he might have fallen asleep again in a few minutes with little ef- f ,rt. A ll articles of clothing should be changed as frequently as possible. Especially should i garments be replaced by dry ones as .(,„u as opportunity offers. Cases of arsenical poisoning have occasionally been observed as a result of wearing goods in whose color- ing matter arsenic is found. Green colon are more suspicious in this connection. A warns bath, or at least an ablution, every day is essential to a child's welfare. The temperature of the water should at first be 100 0 F., and should gradually be lowered to 90 ° ; the temperature of the room should not fall below 70 0 , The child ,should be im- mediately taken out of the bath, if its lips and ibigers begin to look blue or its jaws to quiver. After every bath it must he rubbed dry and laid in a warns bed. A warm band- age is necessary, partly to support the ab- domen, the navel more particularly, but also to protect the child from cold.

A LEGEND OF ASH-KE-MUK. During t)le en inIllel' VaeatIOU of 1878, 1 devuted u,y leisure time to trout fishing, and for this purpose pushed away up into the wild,rocky region of nutthern Muskoka, Cana de, fa. beyond the limit of any uf ray former exploratluue. In the vicinity of Brecebridge, I engaged, so "guide, philosopher and friend,” an old Iroquois Tudian who knew et ery inch of the territory, Over which, it his own account was to be believed, he hod roamed for t)early eighty years. One day as we eat emuking, 011 the bauk of a river, which Illy guide said was the Ash-ke-Muk, the old Indian pointed to a spot about twen- ty feet up the face of a precipice, and - said : ' "You see that cave 1 Wonderful IIIi::g happeued there once ; we tell you about it." 1 looked closely at the place iudi• ogled, and saw, through a tangled maze of wild creepers, what appear ed to bo a dark hole, some three feet wide and five feet high. John said this wee the entrance to a large cavern, the existence of which had been quite unknown to his tribe, formerly inhabiting the fertile plain until revealed to them by the occur- rence of events which he proceeded to relate. I will not attempt to fol- low the uld man's vernacular, but give the legend in his own simple words as nearly as I can. "A long, lung time ago,” said he, "wlteu 1. was very little boy, uty people, a large baud of the great Iroquois tribe, dwelt upou the gaud laud, where we atupped last night. Gauze was plentiful in those days, both winter and summer. The river, then much bigger than now, was full of fish. My people raised much corn,aud were contented and happy. Where are they now 1 Gene 1 Gone 1 All gone but poor old John ! The white man's rum and emall•pbx, the white man's ways, have swept them from the earth. "Our head chief,Matchedash, was a great warior, and ruled his people wisely and well. He had no sons, And but one daugbetr, Minnekoma, beautiful as the morning sun, fleet as a wild deer, with eyes like stars, and hair glossy as the raven's wing. All the young men of the tribe laid their gifts at her feet, only to be re- jected. Belt,r,gno brave, Ojetka, would not be repulsed. Far and near he sought for the choicest spoils of the chase and brought them to her wigwam ; yet still she turned coldly away. Forming Good Habits. Our little folks are entirely creatures of habit, and if good habits are not f•"•uteri early, bad ((110.4 will certainly he fanned later. Every mother, I care not what her station in life, or her duty in society, should have the oversight and care personally of her children, an, as soon as able after their birth, should bathe, dreg, and feed, as nature intended, her own baby. We who have dono this, for each precious one, know the pleasure and satisfaction to be found in the work, This bath should always be given at the same hour of the morning; then little one, tired and hungry after it, should be fed. A long, quiet nap will be the result, and thus (to use a common expression) the child begins the day "right end first." Let this become a fixed habit, and let it once be broken in upon, and watch the re suit. In most cases it will be a shorter nap, a crosser child, a harder day, and worst of of all, a fretful, worn-out mother. Try the sante experiment with older 01111- dren and what follows ? The next morniug tells the story. It is harder to got started for school, the hour for the music l.'s • •1 seems longer, clothes don't feel right, 1 k can't be found, tears are shed and ,• ye thing goes wrong, all for the lost hour , ho night before.

Hints to Horne Builders. Exterior beauty is valuable more to !u•i bors than to possessors, and nothing more illustrates the workings of the golden rule than the building of a house whose beauty shall gladden those who look upon it; measur- ably, of course; but certainly- no one ought to build all ugly; house, 00 in any way disfigure the landscape. L0.rrinr beauty is the suurco of happiness and of refinement to the possess- ors, and very often contributes more toward the true hnpruwctmt'nt of these tltiut could be explained or understood. The general tone of n benntiful room, when empty, should be sorinnt, 111111"st "sad," las our forefathers called natural and balanced coloring, and the brightness should cone from the window, and a felt' special pie 'es of hangings, ornaments, or pictur,;, f Ute tiny bit of color will irradiate a r win Its a single scarlet cloud Mate the dine evening sky.

"All night long Minnekoma watched for a chance to free him, but the guards slept not, and the morning came. Then when the s'in was high, all the warriors and squaws and children went out to the plaiu to see the race for life. Two lines were formed, six feet apart, with fifty braves, face to face, in each line. At the top, where the prisoner was to start, were young men armed only with green rode and blunted spears ; then came those armed with kn ivea; and at the far end of the line croft old warriors with tomahawks Hud war• clubs. The prisoner had to run be- tween the lines, every man giving him it blow, and if he reached so far without falling, the warriors who bore the axes and clubs would surely kill him. The guards now led Thyendaga out, stripped him naked, except lnccatsins and breech cloth, and placed hila at the head of the lines. He sang fro death - song, but looked proudly around upon his enemies. "The word was given; the guards released hitu and filled up the gap behind. But the brave Huron in- stead of running between the ranks, leaped with one mighty bound clear over the line to his left, and flew like the wind toward this cliff. The Iroquois was struck with wonder. No man had power to stir uutil Thyendaga had got far away ; and then, raising the war -whoop, they gave chase, spreading alike a fan as they ran. Atone had their bows and even now Thyendaga .was be- yond the reach of arrows. "Ojetka was a crafty, cunning warrior, and with' the rich presents bought the old king ever to espouse his cause. All was in vain. Min- n©koma's face was hard toward him and she would not listen. Matcbe• dash was much angered ; but she was his only child and had great in- fluence in the tribe, and he would not give her away against her will. Nona could tell why the maiden re- fused to marry, unless it might be that she had given her heart to a Huron lover ; for some time before, Thyendaga, a noted warrior of that tribe, with which the Iroquois were flan at peace, had askelt her, iu marriage, and had offered her father great wealth in gifts. But the old chief sprained him away, saying that his daughter must wed only an Iro- quois ; and none of our tribe had seen the Huron since. Ojetka hid his grief and put on a careless air to throw Minnekoma off her guard, but all the time he was on the watch; and one evening, when the sun was low, he saw her leave the lodge and wandered slowly away into the forest.

"Straight and fast as a hunted doer he leaded along, and when he came to the top of the rock above us, was the half of his pursuers; 1 ut they could see him all the time, for few trees were here. Now he never stopped or looked back, but with a yell ofdefiance, sprang far out from the edge of the rock,down, down into the deep waters below. In a little while the Iroquois, all crazy with anger, very much mad, catue up. Thyendaga was ' not to be seen ; and they could not stn down to the Jiver at this place. Souse kept watch on the batik while others ran two tniles down to the gel, and brought back, ,auoes. Everywhere they searched, but no sign could they find of the Huron warrior ; and all then knew that he was lying drowned at the 1 ottow of the deep hole where no line could reach. "In great shawe they went back to the camp, and the squaws made game of thew. For had not their prisoner escaped and died without torture 1 But Minnekoma rejoiced because of this thing ; though she generally mourned for her lover. Every day sire walked alone through the rocks andforest, always weep- ing and calling on the name of Thy- endaga, None followed or gazed upon her grief, for they said : 'The maiden's heart is sore.' t1Lt en Ojetka dared not be seen to follow or spy on Minuoltot ars movements, so he event off, at first another way, to the woods, and then made a wide sweep to strike her trail. Soon he found this and crept along it, sure, slow and silent as a panther. In a little while he Came to a clear spot, where had been an old camp, and saw Minnekotna atanding there with bowed head, lis- tening. Pretty soon he heard the low call of a pigeon, and then Thy- endaga stepped out from the other side, and clasped the young squaw in his arms. Ojetka's heart burned with rage, and softly he drew an arrow to its head, but dared not shoot while the two stood together. I3ime•bye, they turned and carne straight toward him, and now he let his arrow fly ; but the starry eyes of Minnekoma had seen him I Quick as the lightning's flash she bent the Huron down. and the arrow passed over his head. Then, out from his cover sprang Ojetka, and, whirling his tomahawk in the air, sent it fiercely at his rival's breast. "But Thyendaga, tall and springy as a cedar, strong as an oak, was now ready, and the bright blade whistled by without hurt, and with his own tomahawk up -raised, in throe great leaps he 'was upon his foe. HIia first blow struck the knife from Ojetka's hand, and the next buried hie axe in his brain. Down like a log ho fell dead I Thyendaga shouted a cry of victory and stoop• ed down to tear off the scalp,'but at that moment was aoized on all sides at once by six Iroquois who were returning from a hunt and had come to the place of the fight just as Ojet- ka fell. Now they bound the pris- a®. ly loved his ch,)J. Thyendaga was now the head of the I-1uroes, and for the Hake of bis wife be accepted the gifts, and sent back Many rich presents and k wor,ls iu return. Then all were happy. There was a long peace, and it was front the lips cf Dl iutekoi is that the Iroquois first knew of tide cat's I have shown you." Poor old Jolu, told this little story u ith indescribable pathos, and it may be (1.00. Ile lived for tiye years afterwards, and if ever an In- dian deserved to go to "The Happy Hunting Grounds," surely it was he. THE ART OF PUBLIC SPEAK- ING. I heard a public speaker—a man who, for tive and -thirty years, ad- dressed large audiences frequently --a man eloquent and powerful of speech—I recently heard him say that he never arose to address a strange audience without feeling a seltse of dizziness r,ld fear ; Iiia Iiwbs wools, rillab1, and his heart would, for a little, beat with a force that was painful. Thu late Marquis of Landsdowne, who was one of the most accomplished speakers in pub- lic on the other side of the water, once remarked to Thomas Moore that he never arose to speak in the House of Lords without feeling an approach of the loss of self posses, siou ; and the only way ill which he could surmount it was to talk at all hazards. He added, what appears highly probable, that those coma monplaces—those little nothings— which most wen long accustomed to pulic speaking, have ready cut and dried, to bring in on all occasions, were, be thought, in general used by them as a mode of getting out of those blank intervals, when they do not hnow whet to say next, but, in the meantime must say some- thing. "One thing is. sure," says a cele - brat Englisli speaker ; scarcely any person has ever became a great debater without much practice, and and many failures. "It was by slow degrees," said Burke, "that Fox be- came the most brilliant and power- ful debater that ever lived." Fox himself attributed Iis ownsuccess to the resolution which he formed when very young of speaking no matter whether well or ill, at least overy night. "During five whole sessions," he used to say, "l spoke every night but one, and .I regret Only that I did not speak that night, too." Those who have heard Edward Everett speak, and have been charmed' by his matchless eloquence, have bad little idea of the patient study and practice he had given to the part before he Lad ventured to appear in public. And when he appeared upon the platform, with bis manuscript roll in his hand, and his frock buttoned, secundunt arteria, his ease and grace were captivate ing, and the one impression which he made upon his audience, above all others was of his exceeding naturalness. • Ah ! little thought the delighted ones how much untir- ing,patient labor it had cost the orator to ripper titue natural. "Two moons passed away and the leaves were falling, when one day she wandered off to the epot where Ojetka died. Here for a long time she stood, faintly and sorrowfully whispering to the soft wind again and again her lover's name. Sud- denly, near at hand, she heard the rustle of leaves and the cooing of a woododove, and Thyendaga himself stood before her. No words can tell her joy when she found if was indeed he, and not his spirit, as elle thought. Quickly ate led her to a safe hiding place until it should grow dark, and as they went along he told her how, when he leaped that day into the deep waters, he rose again and climbed up the vines into a cave (that one above us), which none but he knew of, before the Item quois came to the river ; and when the search was ended, and the black night came down, he escaped easily to his own people.
