*ü}c Êljiboïiaur Scnlinct SATU K DAY, NOV. 14,1885. Frightening Children. The greatest difficulty in the wny of properly rent ing children is tliat their elders forget that they were ever chil dren themselves. Parents, with all their love and tenderness, are often so unmindful of the extreme sensibility of their offspring, that they think to amuse by frightening them. This is like tickling them w ith a ueedle : it is all pain and no pleasure. Because it *right is intended to be a joke, it is no reason that it is so understood, especial ly by the little folks, who are altogetb er litera'ists. Nothing can be worse for a child than to frighten it. The effect of the scare it is slow to recover from : it remains sometimes imtil matu rity, as is shown by many instances of morbid sensitiveuejji and excessive ner vousness. Not (infrequently, fear is employed as a means of discipline. Children arc controlled by being made to believe that sometliiug terrible will happen to them ; are punished by being shut up in datk looms, or by being put in places they stand iu dread of. No one, without vivid memory of his own childhood, can comprehend how entire ly cruel such tliiugs are. We have of ten heard grown persons tell of the sut ferings the}' have endured, as children, under like circumstances, and rccouut the irreparable injury which they are sure they then received. No parent, no nurse, capable of alarming the young, is fitted for her position, Children, as near as possible, should be trained n< t to know the sense of fear, which, above eve ythiug else, is to lie feared, iu theii education both early aud late. NEVER. Never betray a confidence. Never wantonly frighten others. Never leave home with unkind words, Never faugh at the misfortunes of oth ers. Never send a present hoping for on in return. , Never fail to give a polite answer to a civil question. Never preseut a gift saying .it is no use to yourself. *4 Never qnestiou a servant of a clii'd about family matters. Never fail, if a gentleman, of beiug civil aud pojile to ladiep. Never look Over the 'shoulder of an other who is reading dr writiug. Never associate witli bad company. Have good company or none. Never refer to a gift yon have made or a favor you have rendered. Never appear.to notice a scar, defor mity or defect of any one present. Tijv World's Old SaxstULE Man«— A thoroughly conservative man is Judge Good) fclu an old resident of St. Paul. He always likes to talk about missiounry work, aud lie always ex presses bis opinion that if God wanted the heathen converted lie would con vérttbem Himself Very quickly. The öfter day au acquaintance of the Judge remarked : "Jttdgey if you w r ere made Sh^reäie Ruler of the universe, what would you do Î" *'I'd resign immediate ly, 1 would by gad, sir.

Y Commercial Advertiser. • .■ •• ■ ---- ------- - Cane cutting has become general in oar Parish, and in a few days all of our sugar-houses wili be in full blast, and judging from the quality of the sugar cane, the yield will certainly be very satisfactory. We hope that our sugar planters, who have bpen so often disappointed and so often suflered great losses in previous years, will be fully compensated this year, and that no accidsntor misfortune will occnr to destroy or mar tlieir present blight prospects.—St. Martin Reveille. -A'good story is told in Z ion's Herald of a wedding in a Methodist Church whereat a prominent divine who was to officiate, finding himself aud congrega tion iu the church considerably in ad vtlncO of the bridal party, finally asked that,some one should strike up a hymn t6 impiove the time, A good brother started off, just as the bridal party, eu teraHhe chnrch, with the hymn begin nitqf$ '•Come on, my partners *n dis tress." . Feeding the Sick. b Sad mistakes are made by hundreds of well meaning folks iu their method of administering nourishment to inva lids. It is the custom to keep the delicacies intended to tempt their appetites constantly within their reach. The result is. that instead i f feeling any desire for the jellies, broths, etc , thus obtruded upon theit notice, the sight of them creates loti 111 iu g and disgust. Sick people should never be haunted with food in litis way Even persons in health would lose their reli-h for choice dishes, if condemned to live in a I aider, surrounded night and day with all the dainties of the season. If you lmve anything rare and delicious for your patient, sur prise him with it. A pleasant surprise is a good tonic, and you may excite l>is palate by springing a refreshing ra rity upon him unexpectedly. Never hand a sick man a pile of eatables, tel ling him that you expect him to de vom- tin* who'e of it. Feed him ou the iiitinitesimal plan, with fau* morsels : and as soon as he has takmt what be requires, r.move the remainder. In visiting sick rooms, how often one finds bowls of arrowroot and sage, dabs of jelly, cups of beef tea, fragments ol dry toast, slices of oranges and the like, mixed in among black draughts, boxes of pills, plaster, leeches, and oih er abominai ions of the ''healing art." No wonder the pale and languid in va lids have no appetite.—Ex, It will not disappoint \ ou. It i> the article known for purifying the blood and building up the health and strength. For 25 yeais erysij elas broke out in blotches on my face. I found no cure until I usei Fmket's Tonic two years ago. It is the medicine for me.—E. C. II. Stubble cane is yielding abundant!} in this palish, averaging!wo hog-head' per acre. This exceeds the yield of for mer yeais, and will afford some idea cf the excellence of the crop in our parish Last year protracted droughts rendered stubblccaue greatly unfit, for grinding, but it promises to make up for its los es litis year. It is to be hoped that when the uiaiket receives a suppl} «.f sugar it will still afford living price.-.__ Louisiana Farmer. We nominate the Hon. General Win Mahotte, late of Virginia, as a incnihei of the Clank Cixil Service Commission He doesn't take much stock in the hereafter, and would make u good Civ il Service Reformer.—Lafayette Ad vertiser. Chronic Dysentery. Mr. James Brannan, Second avenue Pittsburgh, Pa., writes : " For two yean I have been constantly troubled with a chronic diarrhoea, or dysentery, having had, on an average, from twenty to twenty-five passages every twenty-four hours, and every one bloody. I had thoroughly tried all the prominent phy sicians in Pittsburgh, was twice in the West Penn Hospital, tire firsJLtime thir teen weeks, and though I left it much better, yet in five days I was as bad as ever. I then tried two other great doc tors in this city, and one of them finally assured me I was not long for this world, and advised me to write ta my friends about it. I next went to Dr. Hartman, without the least confidence that he could do anything for me. He examined me, smiled, and said, he could stop the bloody discharges in less than two weeks, which he did with Peruha, and I have now been entirely well for several weeks, ami never felt better in my life, though I am still taking his Peruna. I will take it whenever I need medicine. Mr. Patrick Burns, Pittsburgh, writes : " I have suffered intensely from piles and chronic diarrhoea. I was treated by five of the best physicians and surgeons in the city of Pittsburgh, and with all grew constantly worse. Finally three of them laid my oniy hope was an operation. This frightened me, and I went immedi ately to Dr. Hartman, who has entirely cured me with Peruna. I have been at work now for three months, and never in my life felt better. Call and see me at corner of Twenty-seventh and Mulberry streets, Twelfth ward, Pittsburgh." Mr. Patrick Cunningham, S. S., near Sidney 6treet, Pittsburgh, Pa., writes : " For five years I have suffered inexpress ibly from internal and external piles. I have tried the best physicians of Pitts burgh and Allegheny without relief. I went to Dr. Hartman, who cured me without detention from work with Pe runa." Charles Frank, of Emrichville, Jeffer son county. Ohio, writes : I had piles and fistula in ano for four years. I had suffered constantly with a discharge of matter from the parts, and sometimes from the contents of the bowels through it. I could net have borne it much longer. I had heard so much of the ill j effects of a knife operation that I resolved to go to Dr. Hartman. He ridiculed the j silly idea of cutting it, and at once per- ! formed his own original operation with- I out the knife, and without pain. I am ! thoroughl y cured v thongh of course I took * b More Stores "Needed. The great want of this country i* more stores for the employment of the thousands of talented young men who like the man in the Scrip tures, cannot beg aud are ashamed to dig. These young men command our sympathy. They sit «around the street corners of the thousands of towns and villages and wear out i.the seat of their breeches in abject misery, because there are not euough stores tor them to clerk in.. The country does not need farmers, and machinists, and blacksmiths,and wheelwrights.and shoe makers and ditchers, aud miners, and all sorts of mechanics. It needs stores in which young men can get employ ment and part their hair in the middle, and useLubin s extract oil their hand kerchiefs and dress uicely, aud brush tlieir liai r as often as they please, and stay iu the shade all day long and uot have any band-hardening, baek-break ing work to do. This is what our country needs—stores for the young men. — Abbeville Meridional.
