Jririn Ilustrll, in Srrihneror April. It was a calm, still night, a soft air playing caressingly with the tresses of a lovely girl, and the moon shed its gentle ray over ihe radiant brow of her lover. Her small brother, mean- while, just home for the hollidays, j was accidentally wandering in quest I years for Rachel. Jacob mourned of a bat in the neighborhood when he j seven years for Joseph. On the sev heard the voices of his sister and her : enin day God ended his work. Aba betiothcd. Prompted by the natural j )am pleaded seven times for Sodom. i-nnnsiiv r.f vrmfli hn linwriM to is-!

Ihe sound, von know : it was insl like a cow pulling her hoof out of a mud bole."' This is an instance of a com parison which was odious. The New York Post has for two 'Jays given its most prominent col umns to the development of the theo ry of T. S. Lambert, that drowned persons are not dead, but are simply in a state of hibernation, and that the reviving agency is heat. The direc tions put forth for restoring the drowned and those otherwise suffo- I cated are in substance these: It must first be appreciated that a person re cently drowned is not dead, and will "i ,w,,5 lime. w lien he is taken from the water turn his face down for a moment Only, to allow any Water ill his nOSC Or throat to . ., . . . OUl , ttlCn pl;lC0 llllTl, Ollt Of Clir- . , i , . ICIltS of air, Upon IllS back, With il!S head very slightly raised. Do noi roll him upon a barrel, nor do any thing else to "get the water out of his lungs," since there is none in them ; nor out of his stomach, since what he has swallowed will not do any harm. Quickly determine whether he must be carried to where heat is, or if it can better brought to or produced near him. If the former, take him gently, quickly and as near as possible in the above said posture. If there must be delay in applying heat, and dry protcctives can be had, take off his wet clothes and wrap the dry ar ticles about him to prevent loss of heat, covering the head particularly. The warm underclothing of bystan ders can be contributed. Several j thicknesses of almost anything at- tamable is better than one. As soon as heat is at hand apply it as ingenuity and circumstance sug gest to be most likely to quickly and thoroughly warm the body. When that is accomplished theory and fact agree in assuring us that, if life yCt exists, the heart will begin to beat, happily soon followed by breathing, both feebly and tinfre- quently at first, but more strongly j and faster until they become natural, when consciousness will ret'irn. If the heart gives one beat, or the lungs one gasp, no more need be done ; keep the person warm and he will soon be "all right."' Washington Star. Old time Pluck and Patience. An old gentleman was talking yester day about pluck. Said he: ''I went to Missouri in 1S44. Every day fam ilies came in from the East with noth ing save what they could bring on a four-horse wagon. They would set- from pumpkins; they scorched wheat and made wheat collee ; with a hand machine they broke their corn so as to make a sort of bread, and all the time kept to work, kept raising ba bies and lived. They shot turkeys, prairie chickens, and squirrels for moat, and scuffled along. I us d to watch their progress, and it was a certain thing that in the fourth or fifth year after their arrival they would build themselves a comfortable house and turn the original cabin into a sta ble. Now the sons of those people are ihe solid men of Missouri, and the dan ghtcrs and grand daughlersof those pioneer mothers wear robes, a single Mie of which cost more than the en tire capital of the average Missouri pioneer."
