B a t h i n g C i i i l d b e s .— Som e m others, writes a p h y sicia n , th in k w hen their c h il dren get beyon d tw o or three years of age, th e frequent entire bath can be dispensed w ith . If som e of the m ain facts of p h y si olo g y were w ell k n ow n and understood, every one w ould perceive that cleanliness o f the skin is one of the con d ition s o f good health. It happens w hen bath in g is disregarded, that the lungs, k id n ey s or bow els have m ore than their a pp oin tm en t o f w ork. If these are strong and h ea lth y, they m ay bear the tax w ith little apparent in ju ry, but, in m ost cases, a low erin g of the v ita lity and tone of the system ensues. Large bath tubs are pleasant and con v e n ient, but n ot indispensable to the proper cleansing of the skin. A speedy sponging of the b od y in w arm w ater, follow ed by friction in pure air, is all that is necessary. W h en disin clin ed to use water, I find a thorough application of the flesh brush to the w hole person an adm irable substitute; especia lly on retiring, it relieves nervous ness, equalizes the circu lation, and in d u c es quiet sleep. M others, above all, should see that their children are w ell bathed. If their skins arc k ep t active and h ealth y there w ill n ot be h alf tne danger from fe ver, cold and eruptive diseases. If you r little one is cross or troublesom e and finds occupation that pleases it, try the effect of a bau i; som etim es it is m agical, and if tir ed, it w ill go to sleep and awaken bright, cheerful and h ap p y. Do n ot, though- as I have seen som e parents do, plunge a ch ild into water, w hen it screams and shrinks from it, th ink in g you are doing a good deed. Nature m ust he the guide; if you r ch ild has a nervous con stitu tion , a shock of this k in d is o n ly exh au stin g and in ju rious.

A T en T housand -D o llar v ir t u e D augh ter .— On a certain day, on a Pennsylvania rail road, a belle of a thriving Pennsylvania town, the daughter of a wealthy lumber merchant, was traveling in the same car with a shrewd old citizen oi lier native town and an agreeable gentleman from the West who tells the story. The latter had been talking to the belle, but as the night drew on and the young lady grew drowsy, he gave up his seat to her and placed himseli beside the seme what cynical Pennsylvanian. The latter began the con versation by pointing to a high mountain past which they were whirling, and said : “ You see that moutaiu? Six or eight years ago it was covered with as fine a forest as ev er grew, and was worth §10,000 and upward. Now without a tree and covered with stumps, the laud is scarcely worth a continental. The net produce of that mountain lies over there in that seat,” and he pointed to the re cumbent belle; “ that is my calculation. It has just absorbed all of that lumber, which . her father owned, to raise and educate, pay for her clothes and jewelry, bring her out in society, and maintain her there. Some o f you young men, if you were given your choice between the mountain yonder, as it now stands, and the net produce on that seat, would take the net produce, butas for me, give me the stumps.” C areless E nglish .—A lady and gentle man were crossing our meadow one cloudy day, when suddenly it began to rain. “ Won’t you he kind enough to hoist my umbrella?” said the lady. “ Certainly,” said the gentleman. I was astoni shed at this, for it “ went” means anything at all it means will not; and therefore, according to my translation, the gentleman had really told the lady that certainly he would not be kind enough to hoist her umbrella! But no. Even while he spoke he opened that useful article and held it gracefully over Jiis companion. “ Thank you,” said she, earnestly. “ Not at all,” said he, still more earnestly. And on they went. “ Why, the fellow flatly contradicted the lady,” said I to myself, “ How outrageous.” But po, again, for they were on the best of terms, and the lady smiled sweetly at his words. Yet the birds tell me that this sort of talk is quite usual among genteel human beings. of a decree Old Deacon Roberts was worked up to a high state of enthusiasm at a revival. He was exhorting the unconverted to flee from the wrath to come before it was too late; “ for,” said he, “ the Lord is here now, and H e may not be here again for twenty years.” “ You are all going to hell,” shouted an Miner’s Journal; A careful housewife in Altoona put an $18 order and a $10 green back into the drawer of tlia coffee mill last Wednesday tor sate keeping.
