In the autumnal weather you find the farmer going across the field at a stride of about twenty -threc inches and at every stride he puts his hand in the sack of grain, and he sprink- les it over the field. It looks silly to a man who does not know what he is doing. He is doing a Very inn-- portant Work. lie is scattering the winter grain, and the snow may come, but the next year there will be r a‘great crop. Now, that is what we I are doing when we are preaching the gospel, when we are scattering the iseed.

When anyone is afllicted With rheumatism. nothing better could happen to him than to get an at- tack of typhoid fever. Iniiuinerable“ cases are on record where people ~. crippled by most painful rheumatism! have been perfectly cured by typhoid! It has dried up many festeringl sores over which antiseptic dress- ings had no influence: it has caused the absorption and disappearance of tumors, and may yet be turned to taccount in the treatment of cancer. , It has also cured many cases of conâ€"l isumption. But its most successful! !cures have been ell‘ected in the Inn-i iatic asylum. For a long time iti ' has been known to asylum physicians ; that the most violent mania sub-l sides when thepatient gets some se-i vere bodily disease. Cholera, erysip-l lelas. and typhoid fever are es‘pecial- 'ly effectual. This knowledge is- now being turned to account, and when all drugs. moral influence. and the great healer 'l‘ime have failed, the patient is given a dose of typhoid bacilli. In a few days his madness begins to fade away. And by the time he is well enough to leave his bed, he is perfectly sane once more. But. though the cure is often per- manent, it sometimes is eflective only for a few weeks or days. 1 1 L l D a I V. v -v- Erysipelas holds the next. place to} typhoid fever. and it is often used by doctors as a remedy because of the ease with which IT CAN BE CONTROLLED. Ei‘ysipelas has cured the worst form of eczema of thirty years’ standing. This. is a Wonderful feat, for eczema is one of the most. in- tractable ot diseases. But. erysipelas works greater wonders. It. has been known to cure cancer, to cure lupus, and many kinds of skin diseases. It. has permanently cured epilepsy, and ' has removed a polypus from a man's lame. It would be supposed that nothing! good could be said of influenza. But the wretched microbe of this disease sometimes makes compensation for the injury he does. In fact, he is a most powerful curative agent at times. A lady who had consultedl the doctors in London for severel chronic catarrh got a bad attack of' influenza a couple of years back, and on the very day of the attack the catarrh disappeared. Influeoza has cured chronic bronchitis, and 'other diseases, and may, under proper control, become a very useful reme- dx. 'l‘yphus fever is too terrible an agent to employ voluntarily. But when it comes of itsell it sometimes does good. An Indian Army omcer records that for many years his liv- er was so bad that he could scarcely eat sumcietnt TO KEEP Hm ALIVE.

Obviously, all we know want is something that. will make typhus fever harmless, and we have a. certain cure for dyspapsia. And to a great many people this cure would .be cheaply bought. at the cost. of the [whole cycle of diseases. ----A-vn- {hnir hearing for a time on getting a m. of dizziness.

The article recently published on Baron Ward, the English stable boy who became Prime Minister. has brought us. says the London Daily Express. an interesting communica- tion from a gentleman in the city. 1whose late lather, while Chamberlain to the Grand Duke of Tuscany, was one of Ward’s closest friends and al- lies.

Duke Charles Louis had been in his cradle selected King of Etruria, a brand new kingdom which Napoleon I. carved out of the old Duchy of I'l‘useany. Four years later it was swallowed up in the French Kingdom of Italy, and Charles Louis was left an infant without a throne. When the peace came in 1814 and Napoleon was crushed, all the Bourbons came was c1 unuuu, u.- u... --‘----~V.__ in for something, and Charles Louis was made King of Lucca, 2i state which had been formed of the terri- tories oi Napoleon’s sisters. Be- sides this he received a pension from Spain, and he was given a charge on the revenues of Tuscany to compen- sate him (or his loss of the Kingdom of Rtruria. The Archduchess Marie Louise of Austria, widow of Napol- eon 1., had been provided for with ,the Duchy of Parma, and it was fur- ther decided that on her death Char- files Louis should surrender Lucca to i'I‘Uscany and succeed to l‘arnia. He married a beautiful princess of Sa- voy, and when Ward entered his ser- vice Lucca was the pleasure resort‘ of nearly all the continental royalâ€" ‘ties. In its small but brilliant court Ward, whose English always retain- ed traces oi his rustic origin, picked up the manners of the polished world with amazing rapidity. llis ltalian was faultless and aristocratic. and ‘he spoke French and German fluent- ly. _____ -n A m1£fll§ A \1 '1 I] A '3“N a ' DIPLOMATIS'I‘ AND mums. C Gradually the extravagance of the , lrand Duke was hurrying him to a l crisis with his Council, and in that ‘ emergency, when discontent Was . everywhere around, Ward proposed I that the help of the Duke’s Austrian relations should be secured. It was a perilous embassy in that vortex of secret conspiracy and intrigue, but Ihe agreed to go, and so admirable was the report which he drew up (in German) on ‘he finances of Lucca that he quite Won over the Archduke Ferdinand in Vienna, and secured in 1843 the. monetary and other sup- port which his spendthrift master needed. it was for this advice that he was made Baron Ward, and he; soon became minister of finance. “is enemies professed to see in his arbiâ€" trarily lowering the price of corn, and his partial repudiation of the debt of Lucca. signs of popularity- hunting, but it is clear that the need for reform was urgent, and Ward was not afraid to withstand the mob 3! when it Was necessary. 3 YORKSHIRE GRIT. l :BESTING mammal!
