For justice, truth and equity.

And a slate no more bo found,

Vou talk with her, nml find she has a mind
us sharp and bl ight and keen a onu of the
piariz crystal among her own mountains.

billing town. Hie ha u liuicy for (hawing,

One is struck w ith the iutellectuul activity
of Iho Maine women, wherever ho travel
among Ihem. A ti iend of mine told mo tho
other ilny that in ouu ot Hie town where
be wa visiting, m the clergyman lamily,
bo wa surprised to luid the walls decurutod
wilh oil paintings which he thought it quite
in yoinl the means ol In Iriciitl to have pur- 1
chased.
" Where did you get these paiiitiiuisr" he .
asked.
"Oh, these! my wife painted them !" was
the reply.
The same gentleman relates that at another
time, when bospiltibly entertained in mi ob
scure settlement, lar out in tho woods of
Maine, being struck with the domestic talents
uud agreeable manners of hi hostess, he
entered hiio sumo conversation with her.
Knowing that ho was couniiccted wilh the
cullcgiato institution in Jlnmswick, alio in-
piued wiili grout lulurest alter u yoiuiif
gentleman there, milling u mi apology tor
tier inipiisiliveness, " J leei interested ill llmt
young mall, lor 1 titled him lur college."
My Inuiid ol course, thought ahu alluded
lo some such lilting u. knitting hi stockings,
making hi thins and tnudu a leuiiuk lo
that i Heel.
" Oh no," suid tho lady, composedly, " I
mean that I laught him Creek and Latin,
ami so on, mul of course 1 should wish tu
hear that lie was doing well." It seemed tu
he quite mi of course ulliiir to her, nothing
lo w hat she could do. 1 can assure you, by
l lie bye, lhat these women are yeoman house
keepers, mul thai you will never tuste the
L iiiu or Greek in sour bread or bud butter,
or ace the drawing mul painting looking out
of hole in dresses.
Tho fact is, that a atciilo soil nnd a harsh
cliiuato, though nut good lor growing any
thing else, are first rale lor raining mtn and
women; und nun and women, in the full,
emphatic sense, of the word, are the staple
products of Maine. The long chccrles
winters hero are powerlul educators, bold
physically und morally physically in the
amount of oxygen mid vitality which they
Ibrce into the system, intellectually iu the
leisure which they force on one for intellec
lual pursuit. Apropos of the winter, 1
will relate un nntJcdolu which 1 heard in my
village under Iho mountains, which might
give some of our Southern friends a new
iden of what a winter hero ia like.
Haiti one of our friend, whoso house liea
directly under the mountains " Last w inter
the anow was hanked up quite to the ridge-
pole of tho house."

what dill you all do?"
"Tunnelled through it!" said my friend,
composedly we hail a tunnel some iniecii
Icet long to the road.
"And pray how long did it Insl?" said I.
" ell, ahout six months, said lie,
" It Hindi the house very warm, indeed,"
addetl hi wife, "almost oppressive."
That was ono view of a anow hank thnt
had never auggested itself to me. Itnt I
must ndd to what 1 said about the Maino
women mul girls, one drawback one is im
pressed with il even iu the most mountainous
districts the want of an appearance of ro
bust health. The young girls nro fiir spark
ling, intellectual-looking hut they nre want
ing iu Iho physique. They look like forest
ilowera very fair, hut ns if a breath might
wither Ihem. The mind soenis altogether
to have got tho atart of Iho body. The long
winters may have something to tin w ith this.
For more than hnlf the yenr tho liimiile aex
iu this climate nre very much confined in
doors, iu stove heated looms, generally ve-y
partially ventilated, as room iu cold weath
er always are. Here they read, nnd sluilv,
nnd sew and go nut, nt most, only in pleas
ant weather olien only in sleighs, wilh
lathers or brothers to drive them, and the
sleigh is a vehicle that gives nn sort of exer
cise. Can we not acu iu this lacl the reason
for that predisposition to disease of the lungs
which is constantly the terror ol every pa
rent in New I'.nghuul, rind which seals every
year hundreds of the fairest fur tho grave ?
Think of the commit between tho stove-
healed room, w hero one is kept almost nt
the point of perspiration, mid Iho lungs
constantly inhaling warm air, and the sharp,
Keen, culling air that is inhaled w ithout.
There is no remedy for this, hut a harder
habit of hie. A young cirl iu New Fnglaml
is never secure against consumption but by
keeping her physical vigor up lo the highest
point. Hie should go out regularly every
day, in all weathers, nml familial izo her
lungs with tho out door atmosphere. Hho
should fortify her skin wilh daily cold bath
ing, wear short walking dresses, prefer walk
ing to the sleigh, practice skating nml out
door amusements, a Her the example of F.u
ropeau ladies in n similar climate mid then

other sex, n disciplincr mid invigorntor tu tho
