How TO ACQUI1IK IIlQII Hr.ALTH. Walker, in his " Original," lays down tho following rules for attaining high health. Thoy aro worth remembering, particularly his ndvico to wives and husbands. " First, study to acquire a composuro of mind and body. Avoid agitation ol mio or tho other, especially beforo and after meals, and whilst tho process of digestion is going on. To (his end, govern 3 our temper, en. deavor to look at tho bright side of things, keep down as much as possible tho unruly iassions, discard envy, hatred and malico, and lay your head upon your pillow in charity with all mankind. Let not your wants outrun your means. Whatever dif ficulties you havo to encounter, bo not per plexed, but onjy think what is right to do in tho sight or Him who seetli nil things, and bear without pining at tlio results. When your meals are solitary, let your thoughts bo cheerful; when thoy aro social, which Is better, avoid disputes or scriou3 argument, or unpleasant topics. " Unquiet meals," says ahakspcare, " mako III digestions, and tho contrary is produced by easy conversa tion, a pleasant project, welcome news, or a lively companion. 1 advise wives not to entertain their huihauds witli domestic grievances about children or servants, nor to nsk for money, nor propound unreason nblo or provoking questioiiB, nnd adviso husbands to keep tho cares and vexations of tlio world to themselves, (ml to bo coinmu uicativo of whatever is comfortable, cheer, ful mid amusing." exx IfliJhii Sizcoi'oun Grtr.AT Linus. rTho latest measurements of our fresh water scaa aro theso: Tho greatest length of Lako Suporior is -130 miles; its greatest breadth U 100 miles; mean depth, OSS foot; elevation, 027 foot; area, 112,000 square miles.

Contrast thoso who do nothing but sigh all day, and livo to fol low tho fashions ; who never earn tho broad that thoy eat, or tlio shoes they wear; who aro languid and lazy from ono week's end to tho other. Who but a simpleton or a noppiujay would prefer ono of tho la'.tci, if ho were looking fur a companion. Giro us the working girls. Thoy aro worth their woight in gold. You never seo them min cing along, or jump a dozen feet 'to steer cloar of a spider or a fly ; they havo no af fectation, or silly airs about them. When they meet vou, they speak without putting on a dozen silly airs, or trying to show olf to better advantage, and you feel as if you wcro talking to a human being, and not to a painted nor a fallen angel. If L'irls know how sadly thoy miss it.whila they endeavor to show off tlieir delicato hands and unsoilcd skin, and put on a thousand airs, they would give worlds for tho situation of tho working ladies who aro so far abovo them in intelligence, In honor, . in everything, &3 tho heavens arc abovo tho earth. Bo wiso, then ; you havo mado fools of yourselves through life. Turn ovor a now leaf, and begin, 'though late, to livo and act as human.beiiigs; as companions to iinmor tal man, and not playthings nnd dolls. In uo other way can you bo liappy and nub servo, tho designs of your existence. Instincts or tub Tioi:n.
