C. FLOWER’S R E M EDIES, March, 1885. Flowkr Medicine Co., Boston, Mass. GentlemenFor some four years past I have suf fered from dyspepsia, rendering me very miserable. Almost everything I ate disagreed with me, and there was no one thing that I could eat feeling sure that it would agree with me. About two months ago I made up my mind totrv your Liver and Stomach San. stive. Previous to thu I had been treated by phy sidari, and had also tried about every preparation on the market without benefit. I have now taken five bottles of the Sanative and un feeling like adiflVrent person. I eat with a relish snythlng mv appetite craves, and never experience the least distre»s or inconvenience. I approached a lobster salad the other day with fear and trembling, but after eating it, did not feel any dihcomfort. I relish my food and it always agrees with me and my general health is bettor than it has been for years. W. B. MOORE, 6 Mace Place, Lynn, Mass. 31 India Wharf, Boston, Mass., May, 1885.

getmefett |nnil. itinite. Saturday Morning, June 13. The President's delay in appointing a marshal lor the District of Colombia is rather surprising. The new superintendent ot the mint will no doubt find that establishment full of offensive partisans. There are lots of women employed there whose husbands and fathers carried their partisanism to the extreme of taking up arms for the Union. The meeting between President Cleve land and Senator l»gsn the other day was cordial and friendly to an extreme. It is not known bow the democratic organs will punish Mr. Cleveland lor his polite-1 ness toward the Illinois statesman, but they will do it somehow.—Philadelphia Preen. General Crook'* telegram to Secretarj Endicott stating that immediate prepara tion* should be made to suppress the mur derous Apache* in New Mexico ought to enlist the prompt and energetic co-opera tion of the War Department. Gen. Crook ha* dealt with the savage* heretofore, and knows what be i* talking about. The trial ot Buddensiek, the builder of the shoddy houses In New York, has be gun and will proceed without delav, as the Recorder announced that he should hold court late every day. Tuesday night was spent by Mr. Buddensiek where there was not the slightest danger ot being in jured by tailing walls. He was in the Tomb*. The Russian journals are turning over Sir l’eter Lumsden's alleged interviews, and over the reception given him by the Tories. It might have been thought that the honors paid to General Koraaroff by the Czar would have more than offset the unofficial approval expressed for Sir Peter's undiplomatic utterances, but Mr. Gladstone has so educated the Russians in the belief that they have only to make demands to obtain concessions, that per haps they think it possible to procure the cashiering of the British head of the Af- j ghan Boundary Commission. Yet if Mr. Gladstone is to be succeeded by Karl Salisbury it is possible that the era of con cessions will reach an end, anil something positive in the way of a position be sub- stituteit for it. It appears that Queen Victoria, for the first time in many years, is showing some intetesl in the opinions of her loyal sub jects. The order closing Windsor Castle to the public, is interpreted in London to mean that the Queen is about to return.! The indignation in Kngland at her selfish- ness in requiring the affairs of a great na tion to he transacted by visits lo the dis tant country place in which it suited her to seclude herself, has been unusually outspoken during the present ministerial crisis, Mr Gladstone's perfectly proper refusul to go to Balmoral In person, and the easy neglect with which I*ord Harting ton is reported to have treated the royal commands to repair to that hermitage, seem to have madn some impression even upon her Majesty’s confidential advisers. A Democratic Veteran Soldier and Office-Holder Renounces Ilfs Party The Madison (Wis.) State Journal pub lishes s very vigorous and remarkable letter from a well-known veteran soldier of that city, who has been a life-long democrat and who holds a well-paid position in the veteran messenger corps of the House of Representa tive*. Of the writer the State Journal says ('apt. Lewis is well liked by the democratic parts leaders in Wisconsin and might have ills pick of many excellent ofHcs, but hi* principles as a Union man have been so sad iy shocked by democratic administration, that he has Indignantly spurned all offers of ad vancement amt come out under the banner of true progress and reform. It is a brave and manly letter and well deserves the wide pe rusal which it will command. We make the following extract* from this letter: The conduct and enunciations of the demo cratic party hare not always met my approv al, and I have openly so declared, as occa sion arose. Sometimes I had misgivings concerning the sincerity of those who assumed to he its oracles and high priests; and my faith in the ability of those whom the world believed to be patriotic to cope with those who cared nothing for principle or country, was not always firm. Sometimes, too, in spite of campaign enthusiasm and the rigor of party ties, I found myself debating whether the democratic party, with so much In it that I, a democrat, could not endorse, was the one to be fulily entrusted with the control and guidance of the destinies of a nation a* mighty a* ours. Although Hope bad these contentions with Doubt, yet the name of democrat sounded sweet in my ears and I struggled on for success, really believ ing that after all victory would bring to the front the ablest and truest generals, the wisest and most conscientious statesmen of our party—in whoae hand* public affairs would be safe, the country prosperous, the people contented and happy. Last fall, that lung-looked-for and long fought-for victory came. The democracy, chastened bv many disasters, was placed at the head of public affair*; the real trial of its virtue* and stateemanship which I had ex Ktted would wipe out all my doubts, had at I come. Three months of Chat trial are now before us, and what a miserable record It 1*1 As a “new broom always sweeps dean,” so the opening months of Cleveland s administration must be accepted as more oauttou* and conservative than any that will follow. Tet what do we see? Instead of broad, progressive statesmanship; instead of an hon est, healthy reform of the civil service; in atead of guidance by men of ripe attainment* and fall experience; instead of a clean-cut high-toned administrative policy, we have a long series of false pretences,detnoagoguery, personality.and blunder*. We see appointed to high offices drunkards, social if not criminal outcast* and participat ors in election butcheries and frauds; enemies of fair and free elections: enerni -s of our be neficent public school system; former and present enemies of the Union—men un cleansed of treason, unrepentent, unrecon structed and with their disabilities yet upon them. Can soldiers who left limbs on the battlefield stand these ihioga? If there be any such, I am not of them. I want no more democracy upon my plate. 1 fought hard to get the present administration in, and I shall fight still harder to get them out. They are oat thomco to rote thecoootty in this day of **5 ^*^7 I alao folly understand ay botoble position. I do not expect to create a political revolu tion, nor throw the present administration from the track. After seeing the democratic leaders placed in charge of the ship of state, I have lost faith in even their fair weather seamanship, and therefore, just aa my party is entering upon an era of power and patronage, I take occa sion to announce my convictions, so that no one can impugn my motives. More especial ly, as I shall no lunger be looked upon as an indorser and defender of those things which I cannot possibly defend and endorse, so I •hall be no bearer of false colors, open to no charge of espionage or cowardice. Let me be fully understood; I am no dem ocratic mugwump, kicking against disappoint-; ments or fruitless office seekings but I am, and wish to be considered a full-fledged re publican, and in perfect communion with the republican partv—the onlv party capable of properly governing this country and ful-1 filling he manifest destinv of it» people—the pir*v (list, after seeing them both tried. nc>st j nearly meets my approval aud accords with! my convictions.

With Especial Reference to the Subject or Kitche* Ecoboht. [Robert Laird Collier in Minneapolis Tri bune.] The wires and daughters of the lower class es in England usually work in mills and fac tories, and hare very little time for the cares of home, or lor preparing the meals; there fore, cooking among these classes is a terra incognita, and knowledge is confined to such matters as roasting a joint, frying a chop.and boiling a potato. The breakfast of the work ing classes consists of bread and tea. and, perhaps, occasionally a little bacon. But in middle class families, whilst there is very little variety, the cooking is admirably done, The joints are well roasted, and so cooked as to retain the strength, the flavor and the juices of the meat The plates are brought to the table at all seasons of the year thor oughly hot; the meats and vegetables in cov ered dishes, and are served and eaten while paiataniv warm. The English consider themselves very ex travagant in their expenditure* upon the table. Compared with continental nation*, their self accusation holds good. They will spend more than either the French or the Germans, anil will have less variety and less delicious food, but their most lavish extrava gance would be deemed great economy in moat American houses. The continental nations look spun the English as most waste-1 ful in their kitchens, but the English are as i much more economical and saving than the Americans as the F'rench and Germans are more economical and saving than the English. The French and the Germans calculate every meal, and the number of mouths to be fed. When the meal is served, especially among the French, nine times in ten there is nothing whateves left, hut everything cooked is eaten. Each day’s food is provided day by day. This leads to great economy. All things are bought small in quantities even in England all vegetables and fruits are bought by the pound and the amount needed for the dav or the meal carefully calculated, ami nnlv that amount is cooked or served The servants in all English families live aim ist entirely upon cheaper kind* of meat —such as may he boiled or stewed; and they mnke their breakfast on bread, bacon and tea. and usually their supper consists of bread, cheese and beer It is estimated that the living of each mem ber of a middle-class family costs 82 50 in cluding children and servants This esti- j mate would not cover the expenditures for wines, which are deemed a necessary part of the English dinner and supper table. Light er and cheaper wines are much more used than a score of years ago. When I was first in England, port wine was to be found on every table, whereas now it is only occasion ally offered to guests. Sherry still holds its place, hot ligh- clarets and Khine wine* are gsining favor, and are becoming common on all English tables. Personal.

Just before Detective True arrested the parties at Lisbon for the Norway robbery, Mr. Moses’ house at Ba.h, was entered and a valuable seal sack taken. Mr. True had j then the idea that those were the same par-1 ties who committed the robbery in Bath, and that they were going back for the property. On Wednesday, in clearing away for a new coal shed at Brunswick, Mr. Rueben Blake found the sack in very good condition. This confirms Mr. 1 rue’s theory that this gang had been operating in different parts of tbe State. Gray has a manufacturer who. during the past six months, has created a furore in that place. This manufacturer, has been going it blind for the past few months Last fall he commenced with the Portland trade, and one day ordered from one to two cars of lum ber, lathes shingles, oak plank, etc., etc. of everv lumber firm on Commercial street, many of whom were stuck, some expended about as much as the stock was worth in hunting it up replevying and reshipping it. For a time it seemed as though additional freight accommodations would have to be erected at Gray to provide for this manu facturer's Increased freight. Machinery was constantly going and coming, one day four horse loads of crockery arrived, another, groceries sufficient to stock a country store; on another four vehicles arrived from Port land, one of which, a double carriage a Gray lawyer jogs around town in, another a little less pretentious tbe sheriff uses in his rounds of duty. For variety an occasional organ or piano comes in. A couple of weeks ago a Port land music dealer who had sent an instrument to tbe gentleman, being unable to get his pay, called to taks the organ away. Three strokes with a pickax ilomolished the Port land man’s organ. Recently, Waterbury watches, brick manufacturing machinery anil part of a car of elegant furniture have been among the arrivals. This manufacturer, aside from making business for many Gray people, is also charitably disposed, and al though some of his townsmen are out or in more or less, others are being helped to some of the loaves and fishes. One night not long since six double norse loads found their way from the manufactory to a farmers' stable, among which were two tons of bolted logwood, said to be worth 8700 per ton. twen barrels, the contents of which are said to be worth 850 each. A trader at the Corner, in trying to reduce a claim of 81400. now finds his bill 81760, and a prospect of being obliged to pay the operatives their winter’s work. Early Thursday morning Mrs. Wm. Tay lor of Portland, awoke feeling cold. Upon lighting a match she made the discovery that the window near the bed had been raised and was supi>orted by an ugly looking knife. Mr Taylor examined the room and found that 810' had been stolen from his clothing which hung on a chair near his head, Kennebec. A member of the female polo team got slugged in the eye while playing in Water ville. and that ended the game. A fellow broke into a house in Clinton a few davs since and stole 840.00 in money and a revolver. An officer followed him to Waterville sad left a description of him with Deputy Sheriff Hill. The next morning Mr. Hill went to the three o'clock Pulinan, found his man, whom he arrested and carried to Clinton and had him taken care of. He is a city sharper, now in the toils. Oxford At half-past ten o’clock Monday night the citizens of Denmark were startled by a loud explosion, jarring the houses and shaking up the crockery, not only all over the village, but even being felt in the remote parts of the town. An examination showed that an out building belonging to L A. Ingalls had been entirely demolished bv a dynamite cartridge, and that also before the explosion a carraige belonging to Janie!- N. Smith had been placed in or on the building. Nothing of the build ing or carriage could be found except a few pieces of wood or iron.—Portland Argus Somerset. Some of the citizens of Hartland have or ganized a stock company and are building a commodious summer house at the outlet of Moose Pond. The location is a very attrac tive one. Nearly 40 men from Waterville are engaged in Fairfield in painting and carpenter work. Tuesday afternoon the rooms of Eugene Monk, Henry Dawson and others at the boar lingrhou>e of Jane Thurston in Pittsfield were entered and robbed of about 800 in money. Suspicion pointed to a tramp weaver by the name of Conboy who was arrested at Waterville. Conboy was arranged before Trial Justice Powers and plead guilty to a complaint for breaking and entering, where upon he was bound over to appear at the September term of Court at Skowhegan. A horse belonging to ('has. Whittemore of Malbon's Mills, disappeared last Sunday night from a field where it was pastured with other horses, since which time no trace of it can be discovered, but the supposition is that it was stolen, says the Skowhegan Reporter. The horse was purchased in Boston, by Mr. W., and valued at 8250. Waldo. The Searsport ship Clarissa B. Carver was sunk in a collision with the British ship Gla morganshire, recently, says the Belfast Jour nal. The crew were all saved. The Claris sa B. Carver was built there in 1876 and was a fine ship of 1140 tons burden. She was commanded by Capt. Leroy Dow and was partially insured. Yobe. The coroner's inquest on the death of the child found under Dr. Grattan’s window in Hooper’s block held its Anal session yester day. The verdict rendered was to the effect that the child came to its death from natural causes. At Labge. One of the results of the failure of Ken nebec lumbermen to get the logs is an ad vance in lumber. A lumberman who has no mill purchased a mark of logs as a specula tion and in less than a week sold them at an advance of #700 without even seeing the logs. The whaling business on the Maine coast is not proving as successful as was prophe cied. The Hurricane fags been able to secure but one fish. The steamer lay at Tillson’s wharf. Rockland, Thursday.

Royal kakirg Powder Co., 106 Wall street, N.T. __scpttltRwlT A Few Axioms by the Fence Corner Philosopher. When you see a trader advertis ing that he can sell goods at a less price than his competitors because he has small expenses, the question naturally arises, what do his small expenses mean His small expenses mean First—Small stock. Second—Few clerks, or none. Third—Small business. Consequently he buys his goods in small lots aud pays large profits on them, and his customers have got to pay a profit on the large profit he has already paid. A one-h°rse power engine will not do the work of a twenty-horse power engine, while it takes more fuel to run the larger engine than it does the smaller, the proportion ate expense is much less. The day of small business and large profits is past. The large business, large stock and small profits are what the public demands.—The Fence Cor ner Philosopher. That is what we believe in, and we are prepared to give the public the benefit we derive in buying our goods from first hands in large quantities. The public can rely on always finding a good article at a low price at our store. We believe that we cannot afford to sell a poor article at any price. We also wish to say that we have an unusually choice stock of seasonable goods in all departments, which we are pre pared to sell at a small profit. CHAS. H.

M., June 1th author and murderer. Others in court also smiled and shook their heads. Her idea was too complex and tar fetched for them. They could not swallow it, in vulgar phrase. She was taken then, through the events of the Saturday afternoon, and examined particularly as to the prisoner,s state ments about the deceased. Afterward the solicitor for the defense, well known to be employed by Mr. Parkman, drew from her all' that might tell in the prisoner's favor, and then, easting one lonsr. loving look of comfort at her lover. Ethel sat down. She had told the truth, she had perfect trust now, in the wisdom of the law. Two or three unimportant witnesses followed, the medical evidence succeeded these, and then Mr. Parkman was called. As he took off his glove many sympathis ing glances were cast at his handsome grave lace. What a trouble and annoy ance it must have been to him What a loss to be deprived of his two chief em ployes at once! And then how rioh he was said to be. and almost fashionable, too, for was he not going to be married to the Hon. Sylvestra llautbran Even the Lord Mayor cmild hardly refrain from leaning forward in his great oak chair to look his sympathy. "The prisoner has been a clerk in the employment of yonr firm for nearly 14 years,'Mr. Parkman?” That was the first question of any interest. ”He has. He has been a most faithful, steady, and upright man in all his dealings with us.” This was gallant testimony, but what could it aval against tacts. It only evoked a look of warm gratitude from the pris oner. Ur. Parkman then went on to tell II _ __ what he knew of the diffisrences between Critchlow ami the prisoner, and the nn igE&^AASSSJSi Bnt he told this to reluctantly that the ex amining barrister was "truck by his bias in the prisoners lavor, and asked him with a smile, “And do yon, too, think that the ..tw, person inserted the advertisement and committed the murder?” The witness paused it was clear that be had no doubt that his protege was guil ty of the one and the otber. ior he faltered and passed his hand over his brow. Then he said. "I do -And so do I,” said the counsel dryly, and was about to sit down with that quip in his mouth when there was a bustle at the door. Some glanced that way im patiently. and some expectantly; what was the expression of Mr- Parkman s face it was hard to sav. It was almost a baffled, hunted look that came into his licrht blue eyes, and the hand which be raised to stroke his mustache scarcely hid the odd contraction about the mouth. The noise ceased as a burly man pushed his way through the crowd to the table. He seemed to be some one of importance,for the counsel paused in the act of sitting down, and lent a w illing ear to his whis per. Then a hurried and seemingly ex citing conference went on between these two and the solicitor for the defense and one or two others—so exciting that expec tation was raised to a very high pitch, and at length the Lord Mayor, unable to bear it longer, said, “Have you anymore questions for this witness, Mr. Black worth Thus recalled to himself, Mr. Banck worth rose from his stooping position and seemed to hesitate. Finally he said, with an air of reluctance,“Yes, my lord, I fear I have. Mr. Parkman, did I understand vou to give it as your opinion that whoev er inserted that advertisement committed this murder?” A strange panse, then, in an equally strange, hoarse tone. “Yes.” “Is that,” holding up a Russia leather blotting case filled with green blotting paper, “the blotting case von use in your library at Richmond It sounded, apart trom the sudden pro duction of the case, a harmless question enough. And yet how was it that through all that crowded court every one felt the terrible nature of the silence which fol lowed. Was that ordinary looking head a gorgon’s head that at sight of it the per spiration should soring in great beads to the witness’s forehead, and his mouth should writhe in vain attempt to speak. He couldn't. He couldn’t. In the end he only nodded. then can you explain,’ the lawyer asked solemnly, “how it happens that upon a page of this blotting paper there appears in printed characters a reverse impression of the latter part of this adver tisement The crises had come, the worst had hap pened and yet even now some cool, plausible reason mierht avail him. Now was the time for ready brain and steady pulse. Now—but now all these were wanting He glared round him for a mo ment on the sea of faces, grasped wildly at his throat, and fell to the floor of the box in a fit. Amid a thrill of such sensations as few in that court had ever experienced they bore him out to an adjoining room. But he was dead before they could bring a doctor to him. That moment—and heaven knows what of bitter anticipation—had been his punishment in this world. I’eters, it appeared, had gone down to see him at Richmond, and while waiting in the library had, in the instinctive pur suit of his profession, turned over the lea\ es of the blotting book. The cipher caught his eye, but the merchant entering at that moment, it was not until after he left for town that Peters could get into the house again, confirm his impression, and with his strange piece of evidence follow to London by a later train. For a few hours after the merchant’s death it seemed one of those motiveless murders that upset all calculations. But among his papers was found the key. He had lost great sums by deep play at a West-end club. His father was then ill, his needs were most pressing. He had al ready far exceeded his right to draw upon the firm to get more he deposited forged acceptances. At his father’s death the cashier discovered this, and though the junior partner was now able to refund the money. Critchlow held the forgeries in terrorem over him. Parkman secretive, yet fierce, took his life. Of him enough. For Earnest Crisp, he married Ethel three weeks later, and there are already three small Crisps in the nur sery, with whom this strange story of the Mansion House justice room will some day be a household word, and be in their mouths, as it is in those of the justice-room oflicials, “often remembered.”—London Society. ijftisttllaneous. Cheerfulness at Meals. Professor Holmes says that in the scrab ble tor money and for success, the great majority of the people pay too little re gard to that cheerfulness which should be an accompaniment of every family meal. It is verv common for husbands and wives, either from toil, care or perplexity, to bring home their long bent-up ill-nature, and manifest it in Scolding, grumbling or sullen silence at the dinner or tea-table. If there be a taraily of children, the effects upon their young'minds are deplorable. Meal time, which, tor many reasons should be the most joyous part of the day, is often really the most cheerless and un happy. Papa frets about his business, and throws off, at the table, an amount of ill-nature corresponding to the food he eats. Mamma is cross, and occupies her spare moments in relating the mishaps of the day. The poor children cannot do otherwise than partake of the ill-nature which hovers about them. Eating under such circumstances is neither pleasurable nor healthy. The food is swallowed with out sufficient mastication, and indigestion and dyspepsia are the consequences. This is all wrong. Whatever perplexi ties may arise during the day should be thrown aside before meal time. Pleasant faces, cheerfulness, even boistrons hilari ty should be the attendants of every meal. Ample time should be allowed for eating, that every one may have an opportunity for enriching the occasion by sprightly conversation, laughable stories and over flowing mirth. That very proper deport ment, which some people boast of, is a black pall of unhappiness to many a household. Above all, let the dear children be en couraged to talk at table, and to be mirth ful. Let even the little three year-old be encouraged to relate his exploits for he has an experience every day, which to him is as important as are battles to a great Seneral. Let parents show to their chil ren that respect which they would have them show to others. Children are origi nal, and their 'unrestrained talk, when they have grown up under favorable influ ences, it frequently more entertaining Good health depends largely on the eondSon of the liver. This organ Is easily affected because of its sluggish circulation. When it becomes disordered, stagnant blood accumulates in its venous system, causing it to discharge inert or bad bile. Many forms of disease result from its imperfect action, which deranges all the digestive and assimilative organs, and, through these, impairs almost every function of mind and body. There is no Better way to insure the proper action of all tbe apparatus necessary to health, than to aid the stomach and liver by the occasional use of* Ayer’s Pills. E. A. Robiuson. 151 School at., Lowell, Mass., says: “For a number of years I was stationed in tbe tropics; and, while there, suffered much from torpidity of the liver and indigestion. Headaches and nausea disabled me for days at a time, and it was only by tbe use of Ayer’s Pills that I obtained relief. 1 know them to be the Best Cathartic Pills. They stimulate the appe tite, assist digestion, and leave tbe bowels in a natural condition.” John H. Watson, proprietor University Hotel, Chape) Hill, N. C„ writes: For twenty years I was a sufferer with sick headache. I began taking Ayer’s Pills, and quickly found relief. I have not had an attack of head ache for years, and attribute my freedom from it to the use of Ayer’s Pills.” Jared Agnew, LaCrosse, Wis., writes: I was cured of a grievous attack of Erysipelas by using Appetite leaden the pfr*»H|y; of needful bodily sustenance a matter of pleasure. When ever the appetite fall*, yon may be sure tbe and liver have become de ranged, and need to be corrected by tbe use of Ayer’s Pills. C. Danlv, Belton, Texas, writes: I have taken Ayer’s Pills for various affections arising from de rangements of the liver and digestive organs, and find them to be a powerful corrective.” If your Health is impaired a good cathartic medicine may aid you. Miss M. Boyle, Wiikesbarre, Pa., writes: “I use no other medicine than Ayer’s Pills. They are all that any one needs.” Dr. W. J. Talbot. Sacramento. Cal., writes: “The curative virtues of Ayer’s Pills commend them to all judi cious practitioners.” Dr. Charles Alberts, Horicon, Wis., writes: Last year I pro cured from you the formula of Ayer’s Pills, and have since prescribed them with decided benefit.” No poisonous drugs aro Found in the composition of Ayer's Pills. Dr. A. A. Hayes, State Assayer, Boston, Mass., certifies: “I have made a careful analysis of Ayer's Pills, with tbe formula of their preparation. They contain the active principles of well known drugs, isolated from inert matter, which plan Is, chemically speaking, of great importance to their usefulness. It insures activity, certainty, and uniformity of effect. Ayer’s Pills contain no metallic or mineral sub stance, but tbe virtues of vegetable reme dies in skilful combination.” Ayer’s Ayer’s Pills, Pills for twenty days.” These Pills have been most successfully used in treatment of obstinate eases of Dropsy. taken in connection with Ayer’s Sarsapa rilla, have effected thousands of wonderful cures.

One reason why so many persons are so unutterably stupid in conversation, is that when young, they were ruthlessly snuffed out by their mistaken narents, whenever they attempted to join in conversation. The family table should be the greeting j place of happy hearts, each imparting to i the others a thrill of its own happiness. One Special Value of Children's Photographs. Apart ‘from the obvious sentimental reason with which we have been dealing, why parents cannot afford to let the days and months slip by without having their little one photographed, there is a more occult and scientific value in a pictured record of progressive child-life. The sun is an unflattering reporter. The advance in intelligence and in the healthful devel opment which is beauty of the best kind to the eye of science, or the gradual ret rogression in either or both, may escape the eye of persons who are in constant association with the subtle change. Com parison of the sun-portrait of to-day with one taken a year or eight een months ago will reveal the change to the intelligent observer. In some instan ces, the stealthy advance of disease has been announced to those most interested in the victim’s welfare by the shock of discerning a new expression in the eye; in noting the altered coutour of the face, and lines of pain or languor, which have been transferred to the sensitive plate. As faithfully it betrays the slight obliqui ty of vision, the habitual scowl, the truth that one shoulder is higher than the other, or that an inclination to stoop is narrowing the chest.—From “Photographing the Baby," in Babyhood.
