KISSED HIS MOTHER.
She sat on the porch in the sunshine
As I went down the street —
A woman whose hair was silver. '-py
But whose face was blossom sweet,
Unking me think of a garden.
When, in spite of the frost and snow,
Of bleak November weather
Late, fragrant lilies grow.
I heard a footstep behind me, . * -
And the sound of a, merry laugh.
And I knew the heart it came from
Would lie like a comforting staff
In the time mid hour of trouble.
Hopeful and brave and strong.
One of the hearts to lean on,
When we think all things go wrong.
1 turn at ihe click of the eat -latch.
Mid meet his manly look ;
A 'face like his gives me pleasure,
Like the pace of a pleasant book
Jt told of a steadfast purpose,
i ii' a brave and daring will ;
A face with a promise in it,
That, <'od grant, the years fulfill.
He went up the pathway, singing,
1 saw the woman's eyes
i. row bright with a wordless welcome,
AS sunshine warms the skies.
** Bade again, sweet-heart mother,"
lie cried, and bent to kiss
Thai loving face that was lifted
Tor what some mothers miss.
That boy will do to depend on ;
I hold that this Is true-
From tads in love with their mothers.
Our bravest heroes grew.
Karth's gian.k'.'t hearts huve been loving
hearts
since lime and earth began;
Ait'l tl 3 boy ■- ho kissul I is mother,

PREVENTION OF INSANITY.
An Interesting Consideration of the Sub
ject by Eminent Authority.
The amazing amount of insanity existing
in California^ as shown by our overflowing
asylums and the demand upon the Legis
lature for doubling up the present capacity
oftlu- institutions provided for these unfor
tunates, makes the following careful con
sideration, by Doctor .Seidell 11. Talcott,
Superintendent of the asylum at Middle
town, New York, of the question as to the
method of prevention of this malady of
prime interest at this time. He says:
A oil-adoration ofthe causes which pro
duce insanity leads naturally to the con
clusion that many of them arc avoidable,
and that insanity may be prevented by the
exercise of due and timely care. At the
same time we arc obliged to remember that
sonic of the causes which induce mental
disturbance; arc- inliorn, or predisposed, and
therefore, in many instance?, life continu
ing. Aside from inherited, and therefore
to a certain extent unavoidable Causes of
insanity, wo find that excess of every pos
sible form and variety in living, acting or
thinking tends to the production of insan
ity. Moderation is therefore the essence of
' ion.
Developing and maintaining physical
health, checking and restraining the im
pulses of ambition, and cultivating a spirit
of satisfaction with moderate achievements
ill do more than all tilings else to pre
vent the development and increase of in
sanity in the new world. Just here we
may be permitted to state that one of the
chief, yet almost unnoticed, causes of in
sanity is a disappointed ambition. This
cause finds little place in statistical tables,
but it exists, nevertheless. There is do
country in the world where the possibil
ities of rising to eminence, to fame, and to
fortune arc so broad, bright and encourag
ing as in this favored land ; and yet, there
is no country in the world more replete
with the broken wrecks of disappointed
ambition than this. We meet such wrecks
in every street and thoroughfare ot" the
great cities all along the highways and
byways of the country. They flock about
the tables of the changers in Wall
-.treet, and they hover like flies in the
neighborhood of every office or position of
or tn:-:.
A reasonable ambition is necessary for
the accomplishment of every noble task.
That ambition is unwise, unholy and un
approved by (iod when under its effects
the youns break down and wear out pre
maturely, and when under its sweeping
shock they become disgruntled wrecks
which even the gentle ministrations of an
insane asylum cannot possibly repair.
Moderate ambition will lead to ripe
achievement; excessive ambition is worse
than the battle-path of glory, for '" it leads
but to the grave" direct, while the former
drags its victims through years of weary
Midi-ring before the rest "i the tomb is
vouch-afed to their tired bones.
Tha present system of education, as
pr:::*ti:'cd in our public schools anil acade
mies, mid la.* i.i idifii ■! and reformed.
There should be more free lorn, more fresh
air. more sunlight and more fun, and [ess
ol'.-' . confinement to hard bom hes and
harder study. ICspecially should girls be
restrained from excessive study until the
normal functions of life have been safely
and fully established. Education proper
should begin when tin boys and girls have
paSsod tbe sixteenth mile-] in life.
In addition to tin* dangers of excessive
mental strain which beset the young in our
i-i. - ni hotbeds of learning, w • find a
leading and ii. ins tendency to excess in
social pleasurcsJ We find that the days
are passed in exhaust study, and the
night-' too often given over to unrestrained
social enjoyment. Business and pleasure
should always find a happy and harmoni
ous lunation iii our daily live-sj.but
the amounts of each should be very much
reduced in the daily round of the average
young American. Excessive athletic
sjiorts ire likewise dangerous, and produce
disastrous consequences upon both the
heart and the brain. 'me of the main
requisites for th.- prevention of insanity i,
to secure nightly an abundance of refresh
ing and recuperating sleep. Very few
young; and growing people can live safely
'i.ii less than eight hours sleep in every
twenty-foar.
The family physician should warn
parents against the- dangers of unwise ed
ucation, and especially should they urj-e
them to guard and restrain" those of. preco
<-ioiis tendencies. Tin youth of our land
should I.c trained alter the fashion of tl •
Persians, who taught their sons to lido
magnificently on horseback, to shoot with
luvuiuiy, and to always speak the truth :
and when these accomplishments were ac
quired they loft them to ; erase their men
tal work .ii tlie maimer best suited to their
individual tastes. If subjected to such
methods, oven the again ly in body, and
those who arc predisposed to work into
erratic conditions of mind, would finally
develop into approximate symmetry and
usefulness. To win the prize of a sound
body and healthful mind, and to keep
tin m both i;. health, should lie the high
est ambition. To acquire such for useful
nc-y- on earth," one has but to Study and
imitate the live** ■ >:' such men a- Chancel

Clarke. If people would adopt these
measures of prevention, there would be far
less ol business) engrossment, far le-ss of
ispiration for wealth and power which can
never be gained, far less of disappointed
inihilion, and fewer candidates for asylum

A Choice Morsel.
i,- i i r ti v. -„ i
\\ ',» take the following choice morsel
/nun a little book entitled *' Poultry for
Pleasure and Poultry for Profit :''
All things are given to us for our pleas
ure or our profit. As soon fas a thing
ceases to be of . ■■■. or the her, it is of
no I. i ; and as long as it does give us
pleasure or profit, it i- good for us. By
[ilersiirc, 1 wish to be understood, the in
nocent, harmless enjoyments of life, which
tr.-'k *• one better, and no one woase ; by
profit,' that which is uf gain to us, at no |
e-ibor one's loss.
We are so constituted that are desire and
11. have some kind of recreation. The
professional man, man of business, mer
chant, clerk, mechanic, and all others,
after a day of work and application, enjoy
rest ; and it is the 1 besl form of rest to
have, something to enjoy— something to
look at and care for that is pleasing. It is
like the cool drink of water from the old
oaken bucket to the tired laborer. It is
both rest and refreshment. '
To this chess of men there are two thing,
! which" seem especially well adapted. They
give rest and reward. One i.s a good gar
den, the other is a well kept flock of fowls.
I believe a gold garden, with flowers and
growing vegetables, will almost insure hap
piness in-doors; and a flock of clean,
healthy, cackling fowls will make a pleas
ant husband or wife, and happy children.
It is hard to calculate the value of such a
flock. :.V-
On the other hand, it is not a wonder
there are so many quarreling, brawling
families, when we consider how many ill
mated, quarreling and diseased flocks of
fowls there are: Some sneezing with the
roup, and rolling to get rid of the million
of mites which infest their quarters; black
hens, dirty white liens, yellow hens, brown
hens, speckled hens; some with top-knots,
some with none ; some with tail feathers,
sonic with none; combs and toes frozen;
they roost on the wagon, and — if they
lay" at all — in the wood-pile; they look
scrawny, dirty and saucy, and seem to hate I
themselves.
When we see a yard like that, nine cases
in ten the man of the house never calls his
wife by loving, tender names, and the
children speak of the father as the. "old
man." Is it a wonder that a man who has
Mich a flock of fowls goes to the insane
asylum ? J »
A young man who doe-, not love choice
fowls is an unsafe person for a girl to wed.

The Capture of New Orleans.
. From Jin' Century war papers we quote
the following from the paper by George
Cable, "ii "Now Orleans before the cap
ture," in the April number: "What a
gathering! The riff-raff of the wharves,
the town, the gutters. Such women such
wrecks of women! Anil all the juvenile
rag-tag. The lower steamboat landing,
well covered with sugar, rice and molasses,
was being rilled. [The men smashed; the
women scooped up the smash ings. The
river was overflowing the top of the levee.
A rain storm began to threaten. 'Are the
Yankee ships in sight?' I asked of an
idler, lie pointed out the tops of their
naked masts as they showed up across the
huge bend of the river. They were en
gaging the batteries at Camp Chalmette —
the old field of Jackson's renown. Presently
that was over. Ah, mo! I see them now
as they come slowly round Slaughterhouse
Point into full view, silent, so grim and
terrible; black with men, heavy with
deadly portent; the long-banished Stars
and Stripes flying against the frowning
sky. Oh, for the Mississippi! the Mis
sissippi! .hist then there the came down
upon them. But how! Drifting help
lessly a mass of flames.
"The crowds on the levee bowled and
screamed with rage. The swarming decks
answered never a word ; but one old tar
on the Hartford, standing with a lanyard
in hand beside a groat pivot-gun, so plain
to view that you could see him smile,
silently patted its big black breech and
blandly grinned. '
" And now the rain came down in sheets.
About 1 or 2 o'clock in the afternoon (as I
remember), I being again in the store with
but one door ajar, came a roar of shoutings
and imprecations and crowding feet down
Common street. 'Hurrah for Jeff Davis!
Hurrah for Jeff Mavis! Shoot them!
Kill them! Hang them!' I locked the
door on the outside, and ran to the front
ofthe mob, bawling with the rest, 'Hurrah
tor Jeff Davis.' About every third man
there had a weapon out. Two officers of
-the United States Navy were walking
abreast unguarded and alone, looking not
to right or left, never frowning, never
flinching, while the mob screamed in their
ears, shook cocked pistols iii tlieir faces,
cursed ami crowded and gnashed upon
them. So through the gate- of death those
two men walked to the City Hall to de
mand the town's surrender. It was one of
tbt bravest leeds 1 ever saw done."
Poisonous Beans.
It is not generally known, nor is the fact
stated in the "United States Dispensa
tory," thai the castor-oil bean is poisonous.
The plant is extensively used for orna
menting gardens and grounds surrounding
our dwellings. it hears large, fan-like
leaves, a red stalk, and several clusters of
| Sowers, which when ripe are transformed
into pods containing the Beans. These the
children are apt to appropriate by reason
oi' their attractive appearance, and occa-
I sionally have been found tasting of them.
Recently we tried them to ascertain what
sort of awe tried morsel tliey were, and
: a savory morsel they were, and
promptly was our curiosity satisfied in
Icing made very sick thereby. Almost
immediately dizziness ensued — to the cx
| tent "i staggering and falling had we not
! laid down—with extreme nausea, accom
panied with paralysis of the extremities.
These symptoms lasted nearly six hours,
'.lien gradually disappeared. We had
almost forgotten the circumstance un
til . a mouth ago we were called
in •onsultation with n physician to
investigate tins symptoms of poison in
a lit tie girl, aged perhaps seven years The
attending physician decided she was sol i r
ing from some sort of poisoning that the
symptoms did not clearly reveal. She
vomited constantly^ had contraction nt the
muscles, particularly of the neck, drawing
the head backward, enlarged abdomen
(tympanites}^ dilated pupils, and uncon
ciousness. .'-'he died the third day. Ex
amination of the premises revealed that
tho children had been gathering castor
beans from the withered plants in the
front yard. < loser inspection of the beans
exhibited thai several ol them had hocn
nibbled, showing the imprints of the child's
teeth. At last it was definitely ascertained
that lie little one had eaten fragments of
the licans, when the poisoning symptoms
were fully accounted Mr. Nowhere i- the
poisonous quality of the castor bean re
ferred to. We believe that very few peo
ple are familiar with it- dangerous: quali
ties, it should be banished from our yards
and gardens as too perilous a plant to har
i bor. [Health and I tome.

tain Scott lived to be nearly 100 years
old, and when he was m active service the
quarter deck of a man-of-war was at least
thirty feel above the water; add to this
measurement his own bight . (he being
rather a tall man), and the reader can
then appreciate the terrible power of the
animal's tail, I may here mention that
this habit of springing out of the water is
called " breaching "by whalers. Besides
the great muscular apparatus which has
just been mentioned, the whale possesses
another muscle which surrounds the body ]
it is scientifically and happily called the
" panniculitis carnosns" — "fleshy rag"
— and is developed in various ways
according to the animal. It is
with this muscle that the dog shakes
his skin when be comes ont of the water.
The hedge-hog has it very powerfully do
veloped in order-to enable it to coil itself
into tin' spiky ball with which we are so
familiar. The manis, armadillo and
echidna also possess it and use it for a sim
ilar purpose. Man has but very little of
it. the chief vestiges being the muscles of
the face, which give to the human coun
tenance ii- changing expressions. The
whale wants it for two purposes. He
wants it to enable him to bend his body—
a function easily observed in the dolphins
as they curve their graceful course through j
the sea; but chiefly he needs it because by ;
contracting it in- can make his body heavier
than a corresponding bulk of water. This
he has no difficulty in doing, and when he
wishes to seek the surface he has only to
relax the pressure, when the body regains
its original size and becomes lighter than
the proportionate bulk of water. By
moans of this same muscle the hippopota
mus, the elephant and the seal can -ink
themselves Below tho surface and rise
again without moving a limb. For want
of it man cannot perform this feat, and
the best swimmers in the world would not
lie able to sink and rise again to tin- sur
face without moving hand or foot. [Rev. !

Law and Low-Cut Dresses.
The low-necked dress is again attracting
public attention. dress is again attracting
lie attention. It has done so before.
In fact, it generally attracts attention
when it is placed on exhibition together
with charms which it refuses to conceal.'
This time, however, it comes up in a new*
place, to wit, the Common Picas Court of
Philadelphia. A young woman recently
attempted to 'startle thomiiuls of/attend
le, to public ball in the Quaker City by
l.idclj'hia. A y-ooag woman recently
mpted to startle tho minds of attend- !
of a public Imll in the Quaker City by :
appearing in the style of dress sanctioned j
in Canada by the Princess Louise and at I
Washington by Mrs. John Davis. The
display of feminine beauties thus made
was declared by one of the managers to be j
immodest,' and she was ejected from the
assembly. She has re-ponded with a soil :
tor damages, which is evidently intended
to conic very high up on the neck of the .
defendant.
It is likely that the suit will puzzle the '
Judge before whom it is brought as much
as the plaintiff! Precedents as to how low
a dress may be cut, ami how much of snowy
shoulder and billowy bosom may be sub- j
jected to public inspection are wholly I
lacking in law books. . The edicts in Cana
da have thrown some light on the matter; '
but unfortunately the judgments of the
Canadian Viceregal Court has no weight j
in Pennsylvania. j The Judge will have to I
decide the matter on its own merits. Per
haps it may be necessary for i the plaint
to appear in the obnoxious dress in order '•
to let the Court satisfy itself as to the pro- !
priety of the lestunic; or perhaps by '
carrying his memory back ': to " the happy
days of infancy, the Judge can form an
opinion a priori. At all events it will be
very valuable to have a judicial settlement
of the question how low a dress may be
worn without a violation of modesty. As
soon as that is decided by competent au
thority, it may be expected that fashionable
ladies with fine shoulders will hew right
down to the line.— [Pittsburg Dispatch.'

The Trade Dollar.
Since Congress closed its work capitalists
and speculators who arc large : holders of
trade dollars have been active in trying to
profitably get rid of their depreciated
property. It is well known that numerous
bankers, brokers and private individuals
have been for a year or more, buying in
! and hoarding up immense quantities of the
coin, in the hope that Congress would re
deem them at par, and that thus a hand
some fortune would be speedily realized.
j This hope has now been crushed beyond
all chance of resurrection, and the result
lis that on Wall " street to-day business in
trade dollars is more active than it has
been for years. Prom 1873 to 187b", when
these dollars were legal tenders, their
coinage' amounted to 15,000,000, and
.since then about 20,000,000 ad
ditional have been coined. There
are now in circulation in China in the
. I neighborhood of 22,000,000 American
i trade dollars, and the remaining
| 1.1,000,000 are in the hands of Ameri
j can bankers, brokers, and capitalists
: with the exception of a small amount
l which is held in Europe. Our trade dol
lar litis had a remarkable career. At first
lit sold for ?1 18, thin the drop in silver
bullion in 1876 brought it down tos] 04,
i the resumption of specie payments in 1876
! brought it to par, and since then it has
shown a steady depreciation. A large
; clothing house in Philadelphia, which has
j been taking these dollars at par in their
i business when they were quoted at Ho and
; under, is said to hold $1,000,000. They
will lose heavily. Many manufact
j uring firms in this city and suburbs who
' purchased large quantities two years ago
' to-pay their employes' salaries, find the
i depreciated coin a drug on 'their hands.

Food, Exercise and Breath. — " After
! a meal," says a Brooklyn physician, *' if
j you feel drowsy and sleepy, you may be
sure you have eaten to ninth. Of course,
.if a man has been performing excessive
: bodily labor, he will have the same feeling.
I But as a general thing the rule- of drowsi
| ness is a good one to follow. Before and
j after a meal there should be an hour's rest
! before any severe bodily exercise is per
lformed. We need from six to eight hours'
i sleep a night, with two or three hours ex
j tra one night a week. The relief for men-
I tal strain is bodily exercise. You have no
I doubt noticed how much inclined people
I are to go to sleep in church, no matter
how good the sermon. It i* all owing to
the bad ventilation. Cooper Institute, in
New York, is the only large hall 1 know
of that is properly ventilated. There is a
•little auger-hole under each Beat, and
j through this, by . means of diminu
j tive pipes, the cool air i- brought
I into the hall. It comes like
fine -spray, furnishing oxygen,
but not causing any cold drafts. It is im
peratively important to have well venti
lated sleeping-rooms. If you awake in the
morning and find you have a headache
and a bad taste in your mouth, be assured
the room is badly ventilated. You need
three thousand cubic feet of air an hour.
It. is a fault with Americans to havo their
sleeping-rooms too hot. It is a- absurd to
have them like ice, but it would be well if
we could hare them warm when we go to
bed, cool during the night, and warm again
in the morning.
Why ace We Right-handed? —
absence in infants of any marked prefer

universal fashion. The evidence of all
ages points to it as general among all
races. Prom the time of Aristotle philo

factory have been made to account for
this peculiarity of mankind. Professor
Buchanan, of Glasgow, has thought it, as
well as the equally old ami prevalent
custom of carrying burdens on the left
shoulder, to bo due to lack of symmetry of
the body, of a larger lung and the liver
causing the right side to be heavier than
the left, and inducing greater muscular
development of the right limbs. Another
theory is founded on the fact that the
brain J- composed of two hemispheres.
whiclA work tin* muscle-* cross-wise,
so that disease or weakness of a
hemisphere affects the whole oppo
site side of the body. Oratiolei and
Broca have, found that the- lobes of the left
side of the brain arc larger than those of
the right, indicating that more nervous en
ergy is directed to the right side of the
body than to the left. This may be the
cause of right-handedness — or it may bean
effect of it.
Win* Coffee Is so Little Used in
Canada. — French and the Ameri
cans arc perhaps the greatest «'olle»drink
crs in the world. We in Canada arc not
in the habit of using nearly so much cof
fee, relatively, as is done across the lines :
we arc tea-drinkers rather. Commenting
upon the fact, a French journal says : "The
reason of this is that pure coffee is so little
used. Most of our cofiee and spice dealers
put forth, under the name of "coffee," a
strange mixture, sometimes unpalatable,
more or less unhealthfulJ The report: of
our public analyst tell how seldom they
find coffees genuine, It is not difficult to
see, therefore, why the consumption of cof
fee does not increase among us. But since
the introduction of the pure coffees we be
gin to appreciate tbe aroma, the flavor, the
stimulus of real codec" — [Monetary

Bounty on Beet-root Si-gar.—
Act, dated November 8, 1884, was passed
by the General Assembly of New Zealand,
Entitled "An Act to Encourage the Pro
duction of Sugar from Beet-root and So:-
--■rlnuii," by which it was enacted that " the
Colonial Treasurer shall,' out of the con
solidated fund, pay to the person" produc
ing the same one halfpenny per pound on
the first thousand tons -if sugar produced
"ram beet-root or sorghum grown in this
•olony."' Provision is also made that for
lifte-en years no excise duty shall be
levied on such colonial-grow, sugar, while i
the present import duty of one halfpenny I
;icr pound continues. If the import duty;
s increased, an excise duty may be levied, '
so that it be a halfpenny per pound less t
ban the import duty ; and if the import i
luty is rei.iovcd, a halfpenny per pound j
hail be paid as } bonus to the producer. —

Bald of head and red in the face.
I'm only it baby, weak and small ; " '
A bundle of flannel and bib mid lace : -
But don't. i beg, into error fall,
For there's not a thing on this earthly ball.
Or big or little, or old or new,
That holds the world in completer thrall :
Come, lint to the deeds that I can do.
I can shriek a shriek to rend all space.
Can choke myself with my broidered shawl,
Can send my nurse on a frantic chase
For pins that never were there at all.
I can make. my pa so brave and tall.
Say curious word.-., just one or two,
As he walks the floor to husk my squall :
Come, list to the deeds that I can do.
I can coo and coo with tender grace.
And firing my subjects at beck and call.
With cunning smile and a soft embrace,
. While Into mischief I straightway crawl ;
My mamma's anger I can forestall,
I can patty-cake and can peek-a-boo,
i can charm, enslave, delude, appal ;
Come, li.-t to the deeds that I can do.
With my tiny hands 1 can build life's wall
As true and strong as the skies are bine
I am the monarch of hut and hall;
Come, list to the deeds that I can do.

MISCELLANEOUS.
Rescued from Death.
William .1. Coughlin, of Somerville, Mass.,
says : In the fall of 1876 I was taken with
III.EEIiIMi OP linos, followed by ii severe'
cough. I lost my appetite and flesh, nnd was
confined to my bed. In lt>77 I was admitted to
the Hospital. The doctors said I had a hole in
my lung as big as a half dollar. At one time a
report went around that I was dead. I gave up
hope, but a friend told me of DR. WM. HALL'S
BALSAM FOR THE LUNGS. I got a bottle
when to my surpiise, I commenced to feel bet-
ter, and to-day I feel better than for three years
past. te'.'l-lyiVuTy
