‘ehr grmfltrniir Simes. SATURDAY......................... APRIL 21, 1877. A Remarkable Care. T he B eginnings of I llness .—If mothers would watch for the first symptoms of illnej, In their children, and take things in time, they might , often save themselves from great anxiety, their little ones from pain, and th»’ir husbands from tlw doctor's : bill. Nearly every ailment proceeds ■ at first from a cold. Sometimes a i child droops and seems heavy and j languid for »lays, going to school un- i willingly, and dropping asleep over j lessons. At such time’, instead of, chiding and spurring the weary one on to exertion, it would be far better to give the child a vacation. True, the teacher would not tell you so, but then you must reinember that the teacher is obliged to take a very partial view on the situation. He or she has un dertaken to bring the pupil to a cer tain point in his education, and, ex cept to the very best teacher-, children are often very much like the hopper oi the mill—they are cups into which the grain of grammar and geography and arithmetic are tube poured. Mothers must often act quite independently of teachers. Never mind whether your little girl or hoy stands first on the roll of honor or not. See to it that no honors for rewards are gained at the expense of vigor or health. Often a week’s rest from school duties will save a child from a fit ot sickness. Never slight the beginnings of a cold. In the earlier stages a cold is easily managed. Simple herb teas, blankets, and soaking the feet may ward ofl an infl miination of the throat or lungs. If you find that the«e make no im pression, send speedily for the family physician. It is an error to wait for his advice until the patient is very ill indeed. The part of wisdom is to look out well for beginnings. T ricks os a T ragedian .—John , McCullough was once playing the part oi the Prince oi Morocco in the “Mer chant of Venice” at the old Metropol itan Theatre, when the lw»v*j put up a j .i> on him. Y'»u kn<>w fury put three « a“ket4 on a labl»*, one of which the Ciioce opens. Some wi>g got the *a«kets from the property mail ami • fixed a j irk-in-the box inside, so when i the lid was opened the Jack would fly up. John walked up, bent over the i»uX and turned the key, when up flew one of those elongated jacks with a < red Wooden head, ami hit John on the ■ nose. You never saw such an as- ' ton it* bed man since Balaam’s a»s at- i tempted to draw his master into a con- versational del ate, and, of course, the w hole effect of the scene was lost amid the roar of the audience. As soon as McCullough got behind the scenes he suspected poor Jack Billings, who had ; no hand in the trick, and blackened an «•ye for him. When Little Mac, the minstrel, first i came to ’Frisco he was totally un known, and one night the boys put up u job on McCullough as usual, lie ■ was playing Rolla, and there is a scene where he rescues a little child, and, while he is holding him on his shoulder, cuts away a bridge. They . ilressed up Little Mac as a child, and when McCullough attempted to raise him on his shoulders it took all his strength and tn »de him stagger a good deal. Suddenly Little Mae whispered in Big Mac’s ear : “If you let me drop, I’ll bust h—I out ot you.” John was so astonished that he let the dwarf drop, ami the scene ended in a M oving O ut .—On me 10th inst., farce.— Virginia City Chronicle. at noon, the United States troops were inarched out the State House at Col S even H ours ’ S leep N ecessary . umbia, South Carolina.

M essrs . 8. W. F owl « dt S ons : Gentlemen:—Several years since I took a | severe cold, which settled on my lungs, l where it remained without relaxation. I was lhen in Massachusetts, and growing worse and becoming unable to attend to mv business I returned home and commenced i searching in earnest for some medicine ' which would restore my lost health. I ' consulted physicians, I tried many reme- i die«, but obtained no help, but daily grew j worse. I had a terrible cough, and raised a good deal of blood. I had profuse night sweats, and severe pain in my si^le. I con tinued m this state for months, and became so weak that it was with great difficulty I I could walk, when I was advised to try Dr. Wistar's Balsam of Wild Cherry, and to my great joy I soon found that this rem edy had arrested the diseaso. I continued to use the Balsam to the extent of five bot tles, and have since then experienced no difficulty of the lungs. 1 believe the Bal sam saved my life, and I shall ever hold it in high estimation.
