he Autumn days are fading now.
Their hours are almost numbered.

"1119 leaf is falling from the bough.

‘Tho lowiv vale and mountain brow

But o’er the season darkly dies
Thanksgiving Day willlight it,

And all the sacred, severed ties

Again 1.1; auld be united.

Ob. let the forms that once we kneW,
“'hen mirth anl wn were flowing,
Be at the innrd. 1h sl‘lf‘icll and true,
As fnith‘ul an i. nlss‘ m 1m few
Than when life‘s Spring was glowing.

Hor should the gratitude we feel
7‘ Be 5,912! in empty plirns 1s:
Let th he who in the ~unsiiine kllm‘l
Bring something t iiigiblo and real—

However bright may be the ramn
In wlnvh the host is carving.

The Philosophy of Vaccination.
Professor ’I‘yndnll explains the philos-
ophy of vaccination as follows:

straw is burned; a certain amount of
mineral matter remains in the ashes—-
extremely small in comparison with the
bulk of the tree or of the straw, but ab:
solutely csscnti:1l‘.to its growth. In :1
soil lacking, or exhausted of, the neces~
sary constituents, the tree cannot live,
the crop cannot grow. Now, contagia
are living things, which demand certain

elements of life just us inexorably as:

trees or wheat or b:1rlcy;:1u1l it. is not
difficult. to see that 11 crop ofn given
pamsitc may so far use up a constituent
existing in small quantities in the body,
but essential in the growth of the para-
site. as to render the body unfit for the
production of a second crop. The soil
is exhausted, and, until the lost constit~
uent is restored, the body is protected
from any further attack from the same
disorder. Such an explanation of now
recurrent discursmaturally presents it-
self to a thorough believer in the rm
theory; and such was the solution w icb
in reply to a question, I ventured to of.
for nearly fifteen years ago to an eminent
physician. To exhaust soil, however, 9
parasite less vigorous and destructive
than the really virulent one may suflicc;
and if. after having by means of :1 feeble:
organism, exhausted the soil ywitbout
fatnl result, the .most ‘ni ly virulent
parasite beintrodiiced intot 0 system, it
will prove powerless. This, in the lan-
guage of the germ theory, is the whole
secret of vaccination.”

them by pinning at the waist line, then

’no trouble in making this set nicely back ,

sets in the curve of tho of the back piece

Cure for Snoring.
It is related of Sir Humphrey Davy, an

. eminent scientist, that among his minor

discoveries was a theory of snoring and
a way of curing it. He attributed snor-
ing to a dry or parched state of the

larynx caused by mouth~bmntbing, and

in an inveterate case be tried to cure it
by putting a piece of Mic soap in the
month of the sonorous sleeper. He found
this plan was successful—the 0in in-

Preserving Eggs.

Now is the time the egg prescrvcr may
get in his work. In runny towns, bozh
east and west. shrewd men are packing
eggs by the thousands at a cost of less l
than one cent each. Next winter they '
will sell at two cents each, when fresh
eggs are fifty per cent. higher. lla;s
packed and treated as follows can be
kept three months, and seem and look
like fresh eggs. 6 '

Take a common box, such us is used
for packing canned tomntoes; 'upon a
two~incb Icy-er of fresh, c‘ean oats place
the eggs, large end down, and leave
space of at least no inch between the
eggs: cover with n layer of oats and
then place another layer of eggs as be-
fore, until the box is nearly full; fill it
with oats, packing the grain in neatly:
and screw on the top; place your box in ,
a cool cellar, and turn it upside down
every other day. If strictly {rah
are used, and the turning in “1.311113%:
as directed, few persons will know them
from fresh eggs and they will certainly
be much superior to liked or pickled
eggs—National Stockton».

Tlie Procession-or the Senators

The things that touch us most. as we
look over the years that come and thg
ycais that. go, are pound recollection:
which cluster round th - men who have
gone before 11s. In the tune that I have
been in the Senate 1 have seen every
member from the thin; >\"\Cn States of
this I'nion Cut‘lt} into 211’:- <1~.1:13e and go
out of it. The girl! I21' 11 of the States

. of this country have n;1 1§.-~1i upon the

stage of their great dat vs: 211 procession
and disappeared. There is only one Son-
aior who was a member 11 hen I entered
the Senate in 18-36, and he ha;
a continuous member ~.\Ir. Sherman.
All the rest have gone: new men have
taken their places with e pial splendor
of intellect, equnl patrio‘dsin. of all par-
ties and crz-cds One cannot in such a
case help feeling: that he stands aimon
alone in the years that an by so fast.
There have been in the renaie within my
mllection many men 1111 1 would have
ndorned any station. huncrer great, if
there can be a gmntcr thin that of Sen~
star of the I'nilcd States. There ha."
been men of opposite political views, of
ditfcnent religious creeds, of opposite
views of social conditions and program
_—in short, of differing from each other
in every possible way on far as opinion: '
go. And yet there has always been tho
greatest personal harmonynnd good will
between the members of that body. We
have always been friends. They were,
us a rule, almost universally kind and
courteous, even in the but of debate.
Sofron yearto year, In timespins
and gm: events have come and I:
their day, there has been continuously
