How Is Your Backbone! When a person compliments an? other by saying be has a good deal of "backbone" lie comes very near stating a scientific truth without knowing it perhaps. At least, so remarked a naval medical officer to the Washington Star the other day, as the latter stopped to chat in the room of the Naval Examining Board. "Step up here a moment," eon tin tied the officer to a meas? uring rod which stood in one cor? ner of the room. This rod, besides having the movable arms with which a man's bright is gauged, had another intermediate arm ho low, by which the length id' his logs is determined. The difference bo ! tween these measurements, of eourse, shows the length of his body and head. '-There/' said the o'ttcef, after the reporter had sub j?uteri himself to the measuring loeoss, "you are sixty nine and five eighth inches tall, your legs are t orty-three and live eighth inches i ng?pretty good legs?and that leaves a length of body thirty-six indies. That's very good, above the average." ??Well, what does it all mean?" ?sked the reporter. ??Boiler power," remarked an of? ficial who was standing near. The medical officer enlarging on the figure thus suggested proceed i<d: -That's it. You see (putting bis band on bis head) here's the governor* Here," he continued, towering his band to his chest, "is the boiler. The lungs and the heart are here, and below are the abdominal organs or viscera. Your niouth and nostrils are blowers. You .-hovel iu coal?fake lood?in your mouth.- It is turned into steam? Mood?and goes out in every di? lution, you see, toward the sur face.. Now the man with a long lviul v has a great deal of boiler sur? face." ??Then the man with considera? ble backbone is stronger than the one who has hot?'' "Well, that is one circumstance to be considered with others, of course. The man with backbone is apt to have greater power of resist? ance. He can endure more toil and can resist disease longer. Why, there are no men in the war so good for a long inarch as your duck-teg ged fellows with long bodies. The long legged men could not srandit." -There was a case here not long ago," continued the officer, '?which would indicate that a man's back bone hue; a great deal to do with Ifi's-geiieral character. An officer, who was examined for promotion, was found to be physically, mental? ly and professionally unfit, and al? so morally unfit. He was dropped from the service. When we came to take his measurement we found he had the shortest backbone of any man in the navy who had ever been examined. He did not have great physical power of resistance, you see. When he graduated at the Naval Academy he stood very high. When he had to do duty it is probable that his strength fail? ed him and be resorted to stimu? lants. The taking of stimulants became a habit, and gradually affected his intellectual powers. His mind being weakened, bis morals were soon undermined. All of this, you see," laughed the offi? cer, "came, of course, from havlug a short backbone." The Work or a Song. I remember going to the Great Exhibition in London, in 1862; and in the Bom an room there was one particular piece of sculpture which I liked to see; but it was not easy to get near it, as there were so many that wanted to see it. It was really an American work, that is, it was done by American fingers, though it was in the Roman room, because it was carved in Koine. It was called?-List, oh, list!" The story was that a number of rpd men had made a raid in the United States, and had burned a village and tomahawked many a poor creature, and slain ami quar? tered more. And then they stole a little white maid. I need not tell you how the poor mother's heart was broken when she had lost her child; and there was no day, no month, and no year, but she win pursuing the question, "Where can 1 find my lost child?" At last, after many years had passed, a re? port reached her, "There is a white maiden among the red people yon? der, nearly a thousand miles away." There was no rail, no road; but off set the mother, and she went over prairie and marsh, and moor and river, and at last, after many a toil some day, she arrived where the white maiden was. She thought, "Ob, that is ny child!" The face was much alter? ed; it liad become Indianized. There was the mark that the child had come from the white race; but it was Indianized. Its language was new, and the maiden had quite for? gotten her mother. All her love now was given to tho red squaw of the woods that had brought her up. When the mother tried to go near, The young Woman repulsed her; and tlie poor heart-broken mother knew not what to do. At last, a good thought struck her. She sat down and began to sing a sweet lullaby song that she bad always sung her little one to sleep with. At first she listened list? lessly; but in a little while (you know bow an old tune will fetch up a thought) the maiden began to listen, and she stood as if all her soul had got into her ears It was in thatattitnde that the sculp? tor carved her?listening; and the story went on to say that, after a little listening, it seemed as if the lullaby had unlocked thecellsof old memory, and in a little while that poor maiden was in her mother's embrace. Ah, friends, let the melodious song of Christ's love aud atone ineut for your sins speak to your hearts, awakening in them the long-forgotten melodies of God's love! Let your Saviour woo and, win you back, that there may be joy in your father's house.?Rev. S.? Cow ley, shoumatism,C^euralgia, Sciatica, Lumbago. Backache. Headache.

This Guano is rich in Ammonia Phosphoric acid, commonly called plant food, and Potash: and is especially adapted to the growth of Peas, Onions, Irish ana Sweet Potatoes and all other truck requiring a large amount of ammonia t o force them to early maturity. When used on Corn, the fanners say that the extra fodder will about pay the cost of the Gnano to say nothing of the gain in the quantity and quality of the ears. It has stood the severest practical tests In thisand adjoining counties for the past two Seasons by the side of Peruvian Guano and other high gradefertilizers, notwithstanding the drouth of lust season, it gave wonderful satisfaction in al? most every intance, as the following testimonials from men of known standing will show. - Hoffman's Wharf, Accomack County, Va., Oct. 27. Powell. Morse & Co. Gentlemen?I used your Virginius Guano the past seasons and I take pleasure in recommending it" to farmers. I used it on peas and sweet potatoes. On pens 1 put it side by side of Peruvian and they were picked at same time as those that had Peruvian under them, but those raised from Virginias! were bet? ter fillcd.thc vines did not burn as quick and could get one more picking from them after the other were dried up. I consider it just the thing for the above crop. The potatoes I raised were as line as any 1 ever saw, and the yield was increas? ed very much. Shall use it again next season. lt. 11. HUTCHISON. Powellton, Va., Jan. 5, 1885. Messrs. Powell. Morse & Co. Gentlemen?I wish to inform you that 1 gave your Virginius Gnano a fair trial the past season, side by side with Peruvian Guano, both on round and sweet potatoes, and I can assure you that I will hereafter use nothing but your fertilizer, if it can he had. It holds better in dry weather than Peruvian Guano. Jas. VV. Edmonds Grangeville, Accomack Co., Va., Jan 1 1885. Messrs Powell. Morse & Co. Dear Sirs?My.experience with the Virginius Guano last year, especially on sweet potatoes, was a very profitable one. It gave me more satisfaction than any other fertilizer used. I have to regret not using it more extensively which, with your permission, 1 shall endeavor this year. Yours respectfully, J. E. Mapp Willow Cottage, Va, Dec,10, 1884. Messrs. Powell, Morse & Co. Gentlemen? I have used your Virginius Guano for the last two years by the side of Peruvian Guano and other fertilizers, and am perfectly satisfied it is the best fertilizer on the market for all early trucks and corn. I don't think the world can beat it. shall use it in the future for all crops on the farm and the garden, in pre? ference to all other commercial manures. William T Mason. Read's wharf, Northampton Co., Va., Dec,24,1884. Messrs. Powell. Morse & Co. Gentlemcu-We arc glad to have a chancejto recommend what we consider the best Guano now on this market, as far as we have tested it. We have used your Virginius Gnano this year on new sweet potato laud, and the result was very"sat? isfactory. We regard it as being equal to Peruvian Guano, and better than any Phosphate we ever used, and we tried two othar brands this year. We want to use Virginius the coming season George II Read Locustville, Accomac Co, Va, Dec, 28,1884. Messrs Powell, Morse & Co.
