All along the dangerous places where unwary feet might slide, · 'W alks, with wistful face, and tender 1 a serene and 1nigbty Guide; LeMls us, '\·hen the !!hadows thicken, and the foel:i around us stand, Holding our 'vcfl.k, tren1bling fingers, in llis own strong fearless hand. 'Vhen the !ltm in noontide g-lory -floods the flo·.\·er-clad laughing ci.u·th, And we add our happy voices in the chorus of glad mirth, And ,ve seek for shining treasu1·c1:1, Re is near and make~ us s~u, Ho"" when He is wn.lking with us, earth a paradise C!\U be, When the way is long and toilso1ne, awl t\'C wish for ea.sc a.nd reist, Close He folds His arms about Uf'I, shelters us within His breast, Rn!:ihes all the worlci to science, kisae.a us lest we should weep, And with care Di"vine and tC!nd~r gives to his l1 elove_d s1eep: FARM AND KITCHEN. Kee:p the J.lfUk-Ro(Yln, Su:eet.-1\filk and cream n.rc great absorbents of the gasses and flayors tliv..t niay be floating in the air. We ba.ve been in some kitchens in which the milk 'va.s kept in 'vinter for the sa.ke of warmth,and 'vas expol!!ed 1 of Course, to the fumes and fiases of the daily cooking. 1.-:lilk kept under such conditions must n.cri11ire an unpll-'aaant flavor, and must impart it to the butter. What iei worse, as the casein of milk bas a great tendency to com· mence decomposition while in the fluid stat, this tendency is doubtless hastened by the germs of decay which are constantly floating in thn atmosphere of a kitchen. Some dtdry-women say that they cannot m~ke sweet butter in ""inter. It is not to be wondered at if they expose their cream a \veek before churning to euch contam in a ting influences. }[~re art: a few of the rcn.sona 'vhy horses are wbippetl: }"'or stu1nbling, owing te careless and reckless ddving; for slipping down, owing to smooth ahocs ; for shying, when frightened; for any vigorous effort to be relieved of torturing fli es ; for the brt'aking <lown of the "ehicle ; and, sixthly, because tho wind blows off the 1 dri"·er) hat. ..A ]),'eatly kept cellar i.s a pretty good guarantee of health of the family 'vhose members are breathing the ait fro1n it day and night. Every· body believes in having pu!e air to breathe ; but ~Ne are sorry to t ell the truth, that thous· ands are breathing impure air on account of foul cellars. Wbat a.re the essentials of a good cel· la1·? It must be dry; it must have !!tone walls outside, ~d division '\'alls of either stone or brick; the floor of cement upon i. foundation of cobble stones previously irnbedded tnto the earth by means of a heavy inaul. handled by t\VO men ; plustered ceilings and walls ; oom· plete ventilatiou by means of large windows. If these poinra nre secured, the cellar becomes one of the most important rooms in tl1c house. Keeping JVintcr Apples.-A member of the J\1ichigan Pomological Society stated at the late Adrin.n meeting, that he 'vru:i very successful in keeping winter apples, and had sound, fresh fruit in ~fay, by the following treatment: He picks the fruit in October,a.nd places it in hea.~s in the orchard,covering them with hay. These heaps rcma.in untouched till December, the slight moisture of the earth and the fe1v inches of hay preventing any injury to thti apples,even durinR sharp frost. They are then assorted and packed in barrel.a, which,' after heading up, · a.re placed in a cold cellar, which is kept at !t temperature of about 32°,o.nd if it should happen to be a few degrees lower for a short time, the protection of the barrels will prevent injury. Laying Hen.5'.- Treo.t hens kindly if you want then1 to lay eggs. A petted hen is a t1inging hen, and a. singing hcri is invariably, a laying one. The boUse\'.-ife '\'ho feeds her flock of a dozen petted fowle out of her a.pron, wnl have eggs to spare ; when her neighbort who counta his hens by the hundredJ but pelts them about his premises with sticks and stones, and set.e hiEI dog on them whenever he catches them in the stabhis, ·will not have egga for his own use. AYoid chasing or frightening fov.rls, it injures them. If you want a.:ny to kil1, take them qui· etly from the roost at night and allow them neither by flutter or scream to disturb the rest. If you do not ivant to kill them tbe same even· ing.., put them in a coop, or other suitable place, where th~y can be had ne~ morning without further trouble.- ··Lancastcr Fa1mer. 4 JUST !llIVED AT The Sa.tisfactl on given by :BOOT AN:O SHOE EMPORI'tJ'M, the largest stock of BOO'l'S and SHOES ever offered i11 Bowmanville, a.n<l AT THE LO'WEST PRICES. -----o- ANDERSON & 00.'S BAR NU B M :Bible Christian I SLAUGHTERING HAS COMMENCED. eclipsed by the s:ati8faction give~ by SMALE to his numerous patrons.

It i! simply the uso of sulphuric acid, of which four drops are diluted in three· fourt1n1 of a tumbler of water, to be ad.minister· ed to a gro"'-n person, and a smaller dose to c11ildre11, at intervals not specified. The result is sa.id to be a coagulation of the d1pthcritic membl'ane and its ready rerooyal by coughing.
