THE IN ESSENTIALS, UNITY; IN NON-ESSENTIALS, LIBERTY; ALL THINGS, CHARITY. SUFFOLK, YA., FRIDAY OCTOBER 8, 1880. Volume XXXIII Number AO. tired mothers. A little elbow leans upon your knee ; Y’our tired knee that has so much to bear ; A child’s dear es are looking lovingly From underneath a thatch of shining hair. Perhaps you do not heed the velvet touch Uf warm, moist fiugeis holding vours so tight; You do not prize this blessing over much, You almost are too tired to pray to-night! But it is blessedness. A year ago 1 did not see it as I do to-day ; We are so dull and thankless and too slow To catch the sunshine till it slips away. And now it seems surpassing strange to me, ’lhat while I boie the badge of motherhood, 1 did not kiss more oft and tenderly, The little child that brought me only good. And if. some night when you sit down to rest, You miss this elbow from your tired knee; This restless, curly head from of your breast, This lisping tongue that chatters constantly — If from your own the dimpled hand had Blipped And could not nestle in your palm again ; If the white feet into the grave had tripped, i could not blame you for your heartache then. I wonder so that mothers ever fret At little children clinging to their gown ; Or that the footprints, when the days are wet Are ever black enough U» make them frown. If I could find a little muddy boot, Or c»p or jacket on my chamber floor, If I could kiss a rosy, restless foot, ADd hear its palter io my borne once more— • If I could mend a broken cart to-day, To-morrow make a kite to reach the sky, TherG is no woman in God's world could say She was more blissfully content than I. But Oh ! the little pillow next my own Is never rumpled by a shining head ; My singing birdling from its nest has flown, The little boy I used to kiss—is dead I —May hiley Smith. PITCHING TOWARD SODOM. When Lot separated from Abra ham he pitched his tent “toward* Sodom.” He did not go to Sodom, and it is not certain that he intended to; but while he left Abraham be bftid upon the breezy bills, be pitch ed his tent ‘ towards Sodom,”aud the next thing we find of him he is in Sodom. To be sure the men of Sod orn were sinners exceedingly, and his rightesus soul was vexed from day to day with their unlawful deeds; but yet he hud “pitched his tent towards Sod oid,” and dually we see him inside oi the city. There may have been ebau ces for money-making in Sodom.— Possibly he had iuvested in coruei lots, and thought by speculation to acquire wealth. His wife had got tired of moviug around as Abraham did, and wondered perhaps how Aunt Surah could bear it. For her part she wanted to settle down and take some comfort. So Lot perhaps UullL mm U I1UUKU, »U J UJUUO wuau called a permanent settlement. But it was in Sodom. Sodom was all around him. Not only was his house in Sodom, but Sodom vras in hie house. “The men oi'Sodoui were sin ners exceedingly ; and the women 01 Sodom were no better; and ere long Lot found his whole family hopeless ly contaminated and defiled by the prevailing ungodliness. Lot did not stay loug in Sodom,but ■ yet he stayed too long. He got oui of it in a hurry ; but he did not get out soon euough. He leit all of bis wealth there; he left some of his children theie; his wife, looking back, perchance th the flue house where she had hoped to spend her declining years, was smitteu with the curse of God, and left a mouumeut ol his wrath. And when Lot1* old, im poverished and lonely, found his shelter in a mountain-cave, he found that the curse of Sodom followed him even there, and the abominations which vexed his soul amoug the Cities of the Plain, still clung to him and covered him with unspeakable disgrace, aDd made him the father ol two accursed natious, which were excluded from the congregation of the Lord, through all generations.— Gen. xix; Deut. xxti. 3 6. There are many men to-day who are pitching their tents toward Sod om, they have not settled there, nor would they on any account think of making Sodom their home, but they pitch their tents that way, and the end is not difficult to divine. To wards Sodom at first, in Sodom af terwards, then cursed with Sodom’s curse to the latest geueratious ; this is the result of pitching the tent to wards Sodom. When will men learn to beware of dallying with siul How much bet ter to be a pilgrim with Abraham, alone upon the distant hills, than to have Sodom’s pride and tulluess of hiead and abundance of idleuess, and Sodom’s shame and overthrow at last. CARING FOR THE LAMBS. When Jonathan Sturgis, the. emi nent merchant, was but eleven years ohl, he kept his grand father’s sheep. Complaining one day that the boy wild was sent to help him lay nnder the tree and read, leaving him to do all the work, his grandfather kindly replied, “Never mind, Jonathan, my boy, you watch the sheep and you will have the sheep.” He who takes care of property us ually has property; lie who takes care of clothes, always has clothes; and ho who takes care of money is not likely to be destitute of it Ana frequently that which seems least worthy of our care is the most im portant thing of all. The care of the pence'is more important than the care of the ponuds. The “stitch iu time” is the great thing which settles the question as to whether we are to be clothed or ragged. The most important thing in the family life is the baby. The grand parents will soon be gone ; lather and mother have about reached their highest point of growth, and must soon go down. The young people have grown up, and it is almost im possible uow to teach them what they should have been taught years ago, to save their lives from disaster and wreck ; but the baby,—he has ail oi life before him. Itightly trained he may out live them all and out-do them all, and be a power lor good iu the world, lie should have the fami ly’schielest cate; and a family which eliminates the baby from its circle, puts away the chief reason for its ex isteuce, and may count itself a failure. No wonder that such families die out. What have they to live for! They ueglect the little ones, and so can on ly expect deterioration and decay. A keeper of sheep who should ueg lect the lambs, and devote his time and attention exclusively to the old sheep, would in a few years have on ly a Hock of toothless ewes aged with ers who would give no promise of growth or increase, but would be dy ing off and thinning out every year. A wiser mail would take special care of the lambs, and so mako provision for a vigorous growth and an increas ing dock. We have seen persons who pro •eased to feed the dock of God, who took little or uo interest in the ehil dreu—little or no care of the lambs. What has been the result! Not withstanding all their zeal aud intel ligence, their churches have dwindl ed, their children have grown up in sin or have been led away to other associations, aud the docks bear all the marks of deterioration aud decay. They did not take care of the lambs, aud they lost them ;—others cared for them aud gained them. The United Presbyterian sensibly says; “YVe have frequently presented the complaints of the denominations that their membership does not increase. There are^ revivals, during which large numbers are received and en rolled, aud there are encouraging ac counts of statistical prosperity in many quarters, yet a tiual summing up discloses'the unhappy fact that if i here has not been loss, there has been but little gain. “Now, the natural growth of the church population ought to yield a a large yearly increase to the enroll ment ; and if no gain is made by con versions from the world, there should be evidence of numerical strengthen ing. The fact that this is not so, shows that the Church’s children are not true to their obligations. They wander off from the early home and Christian fold, losing themselves iu the worldliness that solicits and ab sorbs their devotion. Whatever can be done to resist this tendency will be well done. “ I he hope of the Church is in its own children. Mission schools are good, and saving souls iroui death, they may be expected to add some thing to the force of the Church, but the real dependence for stable andef lective strength must be in theyoutb born in the Church aud inheriting its blessings. We are gla<l, therefore.to see any appropriate effort made to more fully gaiu the youthful heart, aud secure its spiritual consecration.” A teuder interest in the young, shown in the days ot their awkward uess aud Iguorauoe, will be amply re paid. Such interest iu young persons, manifested before they are old en ough to enter worldly “society” aud before they become entaugled in the snares which Satan spreads for their uuwary feet, would save many of them from the dark experiences of vice aud sin and sorrow, and anchor them “within the veil,” before the tides of folly aud fashion sweep them from all their mboriuga, and wreck them on dangerous coasts. THE SOUR MAN. There are Borne people who will not consent to bo made happy. They find their greatest satisfaction in in cessant grumbling uud repining against destiny. Of all the bores that are inflicted upon our social life,none is more disagreeable than, the soiir tempered imiu ; he is not content with being miserable himself, but insists on malting everybody else so, if be can. It is not best to let such an one have his own way. If he would be content to confine his mutteriugs and mnruiurings to himself, and to main tain a strict seclusion, he might be pardoned and pitied; but when he thrusts his grievances upon society, he then becomes, as Dogberry elo queutly observes, “most intolerable, and not to be,endured.n The sour man is always sour; the milk of human kindness in his heart is curdled ; there is no sweetoess in the acid principle of bis composition; nature has giveu him a quantum suf fioit of lemon juice, but has forgotten be saccbariue ingredients : he is sour from the rising of the sun to the go ing don not the same, in sunshine and moonshine, twilight and gaslight. When he wakes in tne morning he grumbles because it is time to get up; his cofi'ee is always too hot or too cold ; his toast and bis steak either orerdone or uuderdone ; he finds no thing satisfactory in the morning papers. Wbeu he goes out he iuva riably grumbles at the weather; if it is a little cool he calls it arctic weather; if mild, he compares it to the tropics; should it drizzle, he declares it rains pitchfroks; and a gentle breeze is a hurricane. A man’s life divested of the social virtues must uecessarily be one ot wretchedness, for they constitute as truly and essentially an iuiegral part of his own happiness as they conler happiness on those around him : In ourselves the sunshine dwells, From ourselves the music swells; By ourselves our life is fed With sweet or hitter daily bread. — Christian Advocate. THE WOMEN AT THE SEPULCHER. On that ominous Saturday the gates of heaven seemed closed. The hopes of the disciples seemed quenched by the dark adumhrution that shadow ed every thing. Christ’s body was in the grave; his spirit gone to a world nntraversed and unseen. If ever there was au hour when man might despair, this was the hour. Now, to contrast with all this our position aud privilege, is to emphasize our obliga tion to bring a deeper, more persua sive, aud inspiring love, a more loyal attachment, aud a victorious joy. He who was dead is alive again, alive for evermore. On Ins head are many crowns. He will guide us even to the gates ol'the celestial city. The Marys brought sweet sjjices. We bring praise and the joy of triumph, an adoring desire to do his work— such as they could not bring. A consecration like this makes life truly sacramental. They did what they could in bringing the spices and ointment. Out of their small eu deavor came illustrious revelations which changed all things. Out ef our small endeavor may come an en ergy which will irradiate and crys allize all service, so that life shall take a glory to itself which we re ceive from above.— Dr. K. S. Storrs in “ Homiletic Monthly.” THE TRUE WIFE. Oftentimes I have seen a tall ship glide by against the tide, as if drawn by an invisible tow line with a bun ! di ed strong arms pulling it. Her sails unfurled, her streamers drooping, she had neither side-wheel nor stern wheel; still she moved on, stately, in serene triumph, as with her own life. But I knew that on the other side of the ship, hidden beneath the great bulk that swam so majestically, there was a little toilsome steam tug, with a heart of fire and arms of iron, that was tugging it bravely on; and I kuew that if the little steam tug un wiued her arms and left the ship, it would wallow and roll away, and drift hither and thither, and go off with the effluent tide no man knows where ; aud so I have known more than oue genius high-decked, lull freighted, wide sailed, gay-penuoned, but for the bare toiling arm aud bravo warm heart of the laithful lit tle wile that nestled close to him so that no wind or wave could part them, he would have gone down with the stream aud been heard of no more.— O. IF. Holmes. Hear as little as possible of that which is to the prejudice of other people. WAR AND_WHISKEY. , We havfe often expressed onr con viction that if we could have stopped the grog or whiskey drinking politi cians, North and South, 'for six months, the war that deluged our land with Mood would never have occurred. We reasoned from analogy, ltum is producing fights every day in the year, and when a man is half drunk ho has neither sense nor pru donee, but is ready for a fight, no matter if the odds are against him. Curiously we have just met with a fact which confirms our opinion formed years ago. The Newark Ad rertiser relates the following: “In his address before the, Woman’s Christian Temperance Union, Kev. Mr. Crouway related an iueident which attracted great attention, and made a marked impression. Iu 1*65 be took several thousaud prisoners from Montgomery to Mobile, Ala ttama, among whom was Admiral Raphael Semrnes, who commanded the celebrated privateer, Alabama. This distinguished officer related a little of the secret history touching the origin id' the rebellion. “After the electiou of Lincoln, twelve of the leading men of the South, representing six States, as sembled in the St Charles hotel. New Orleans, and spent a whole evening in discussing the question as to what the South ought to do under the cir cumstauces. For an hour and a half, eleven of these statesmen were averse to war ; one only being in favor of it; then, however, whiskey was sent lor, and all partook of it quite freely, be coming, before the expiration of the third hour, quite inebriated. While these distinguished southerners re mained sober, they were averse to war; but when they became intoxi cated they were unanimously iu favor of war; and it was the opiuion of the admiral that if liquor had been let alone that night, the terrible w&r, which cost the North and the South so many thousands of millions of dol lars, and so many precious lives, and evil influences which we have still with us, would never have occurred.” Dram shops demagogues and pot house politicians North and South were ever ready for war; and drunk en generals and tipsy surgeons took very poor care of precious lives con fided to their charge. The whiskey bottle is responsible for an amount of mischief and misery which only the Omniscient One can estimate.— The Christian. THE BROOK AND DAM. Ou a summer afternoon, I took a walk over the mountains. Everything was beautiful, the sun shone brightly, nature was decked in green, aud everything charmed the eye. As I sauntered along, I came to a brook, across which some children had built a dam, turning the water from its accustomed course, Ieaviug the old course dry and barren. 1 took my cane,. and commenced picking away at the dam, aud very soon the water gushed forth, aud followed ou in the old accustomed course, moist eniug, refreshing, aud giving uew life to everythiug arouud. As I sat upou the bank and looked at it, I could not help saying to my self: ‘-How much this is like our every-day experience.” God’s mercies aud blessings flow and are flowiug from rhe spring of eternal love; and we, by putting the world between us aud God, turn these Ldessiugs away. They are flowii^ just as freely as ever ; but we have made a dam that, turns them away. But as soon as we attempt or show the least disposition to remove the obstruction, God, by his power, is removing unseen, more than ever we could do, aud soon the Water or the blessings flow on. We are refreshed, a uew life is started in us ; and it is not confined to us alone, but benefits all arouud us. That we are cold or careless is not the reason ; we have been putting the world between ns and Christ, who only is the source of all our peace, joy bappiuess aud life. Caunot we all learn a lesson from the brook I Men will cheerfully give op their property to save the life ol the body, and yet, for the sake of property, they will sacrifice the life of their souls. The hardest thing for a man to do is to own that he has made a mistake in his judgment. It is an impeach ment of his weak side—his mind. The most ignorant have sufficient knowledge to detect the faults of others; the most clear-sighted are bliud to their own. Subscribe for the 8ON. 4 THE RUIN OF TIME. Time is a part of duration, ft waits for no man ; but ever continues to move onward in its firm and un alterable course. When we pause to reflect, it sad dens our hearts to know that onr time is bat short at best, flow im portant then that we improve it. In our jonrney through tile, clouds maj overshadow' our pathway ; but tie not cast down, lor “beyond jhe clouds tbe sun is still shining.” U'e must not ex|>ectour lives to pass smoothly on, without anything to distuib them ; but we should look on the bright side; so that when time shall fail us here, we may not look back and mourn over unimproved and mined time. The most fatal and ruinous loss of time is that exhibited by those who delay a preparation for death. “Time, like death, is an impartial conqueror.” Everything that now exists, whether great or small, must, sooner or later, fall beneath thescytlie of this grim old monster. Most of tbe sublime and beautiful objects that now surround us, wil 1, ere another century has passed, have crumbled into dust. Let us look bark upon some ot the wrecks of the old world ; such asthepy rauiids ol Egypt and the colossal statues oL Home ; we will see how time has imf/vfnted its footsteps npon them, and brought such objects to utter ruin. When we look upon the face o( a beautiful and innocent child, its bright eyes sparkling, its rosy cheeks so bealtblul, its little heart so buoy ant with hope; we sigh to think that before; ball' its^ hopes are real'zed,time will have left traces of care and sor row on that brow , and will have changed that youth to old ago— Every thing so beautiliil will eventu ally be hewn down by the hand of the “Buin of Time.” With these thoughts I will close, hoping that, wheuour career on caitli shall have ended, and death which is the lot of all, shall have overtaken us; we can console onrsetves with the thonght.tliat we have improved onrtimeto the best of our ability.— L. B. B. in Institute Jewel. HUSBAND AND WIFE. Where husband aud wife really love each other they get along well through all the vicissitudes of life, because one iiumeasmable source oI liappiuess always remains to them, whatever disasters betide—aud that is their uufailing sympathy for each other. Nothing less than this en ables a couple to endure with equa nimity all the cares, aud anxieties, aud disappointments of married life. Nothing is more common than to see two young persous marry with the ap proval of tho families aud all the Irtendson each side. “What a for tunate match for both of them!” every one exclaims. To outside ap pearance such it is. A little time elapses—it may be a few years, it may be only one—when to the surprise of their acquaintances, it is announced that the marriage has turned out un happily. The explanation is simple —there was no love betweeu them. There was a degree of friendship, aud there was a muturl expectation of advantages from the cou ne^fbn—but love there was none.— #or the ordinary transactions of lite respect aud friendship are all that are required. It is not in marriage. Nothing there will supply the place of love. The belief that there are substitutes for it is the rCck on which many a young couple/have trusted their happiness,only tHitiud it a total wreck. The more quiet and peaceably we get on. the better—the better for ourselves, the better for our neigh bors. In nine cases out of ten, the wisest course is—if a man cheats you, to cease dealing with him; if he is abusive, quit his company: if he slanders you. take care to live so that nobody will believe him. Everyone ought to be busy, but no one ought to be so busy, that he can not do his work well. An overworked inau is like a certain plough of which we have heard, which turned up a great deal more than it could turn over. A man who has a fixed purpose, to which he devotes his powers, is in vulnerable. Like the rock in the sea it splits the troubles of life, and they eddy round him in idle foam. The weather may be dark aud rainy ; very well—laugh betweeu the I drops, and think cheerily of the blue sky ai.d sunshine that will surely Come to-morrow. Seeming difficulties generally van ish before faith, prayer, aud perse-] verauce. THE AUTUMN FALLOW. There, are still .some farmers who persist in leading their next year' cultivable hind unfailuwcd until spring. A ^greater mistake was never made ill farming. Many have proved this experimentally to their satisfac tion, and with them nothing is allow ed to prevent.the fall and early win ter fallow, but there are others who pretend they cannot see any advan tage in plowing twice before planting ouee, and for these this article is in tended. The advantages resulting from.an tutun fallow ,ue several. In the first place, whatever grass or weeds may be upon the hunt now has time to thoroughly decompose before spring, and this alone, besides the plant food thus added to the soil, is of great val ue in loosening up the ground and rendering it finer and easier to till all through the next stimirier. But il the plowing is delayed till spring this vegetation does not have lime to rot, very little p ant iood in a shape to be appropriated by that year’s crop is added to the soil, and the weeds and other coarse litter aie i'i the way and impede cultivation. In tlie second place, lauds ol a ciajey. texture are greatly beneiitted by exposure to the whiter freezes, much of the coarse in ert material is broken down by the powerful Huger of the frost, and re duced tu au impalpable powder easy for the roots of growing crops to as similatef. By this means bothchem ieai and mechanical changes in tin character of t lie soil are effected, by the aid of w hich the aetion of com mercial or other fertilizers is render ed more effective and remunerative. If the land is hot plowed before spring the frost has no opportunity to work upon the soil, for it is very rare that freezing of the soil takes place in fields covered with dead grass and weeds. It is only exposed soils that can freeze during winter, and inverting the turf with theinval cable turn plow is the best method at present known of exposing it to the actioii of cold. lhiidly, corn and other land, fal lowed now, and re fail owed in spring, works better the season through, i crops grow off more readily and the time and labor of cultivation is short ened, the land is rendered more pro ductive, and the crop, whatever it may be, is less affected by changes in the bydrometric state of the at mosphere. All these facts have been abundantly substantiated by experi meut, and are now well established agricultural truths. And we may add as another advantage of some importance, especially marked in some cases, that autumn fallow is de structive to large numbers of harmful iusects ill some of their forms as eggs, larvae, and pupa?, in this particular alone uo doubt often paying for tfie whole cost of the plowing in the ex ewptiou of the future crop from these baneful agents. Here, then, 'briefly are some of the chief reasons for farrow ing your cul tivabie land in autumn—reasons, the effect of any one of which wou!d»com peusate for the cost of the job, and some of which would pay the cost many times over, it is not our pur pose uow to smtoit the doubters with ao over long article. We did in the outset intend to draw a picture of a field left alone to the spring farrow — it is a really attractive theme, or at-least a prolific one to write about — but remembering that those we now address know how it is them selves,” we w ill leave them to reflect upon rlie reasons above advanced, which we hope they wilido usthehou or to read at least once, and then, it they are still doubtlul,we will draw a compromise and get them to try a few acres in the middle of some field, leaving the rest to be treated in their usual way. If they will make the ex perinrent honestly we will be satisfi ed at the result, whether they con elude pro or contra as to the value ot autumn farrow.— Rural Messenger. Charcoar, laid fiat while cold on a burn, causes the pain to abate iibme iliatly j by leaving it on for an hour the burn seems almost healed when the buru is superficial. The farmer vyho is above his busi ness, and entrusts it to ot iters to man age, in due season has no business to attend to. No farmer who buys corn, pork? fodder, bay, and oats, as a rule, for teu years, cau keep the sheriff away from his door iu the end. TOiube C HOW TO COOK OYSTERS. ! in yd Oysters.—Select the lalrg (e-;f,ilij«in beaten egg and then in 1 flicker Crumbs; fry in equal parts of buttct* and lard. Corn meal can be : H-ed instead of cracker. i) u.oped Oysters.—Butter a b'Cj, dish, put in the bottom a layer d crackers roiled line, upon this a lay r nl oysters ; season and add bits of oiiflcr; oil ornate the layers until the I '^s'1 is's lull, last a layer of crackers; ;usr before putting in tho oven pour niik b an egg beaten in it. 15ake - half ,ui boar. Oyster Stew.— Bring three pints i of water to boiling, season and add II he juice .from one quart- of oysters; !*vlien it boils, drop in the meats and i'.v-i crackers rolled line, and let it | boil up once ; remove from the lire ; i once and turn into a soup dish in ! which it a.- been previously placed a piece of blitter t lie size of a small | egg, and a half pint of^sweet cream. Oyster Pie.—Make pastry and bue a deep dish. Put a layer of oys ters in [lie bottom, cut butter in thin “•ices and lay on top. Hub some bread crumbs tine nod season with pepper and salt; cover oysters well wuh these; so ca.tinne a layer of oysters and one of crumbs uutil your dish is full ;‘tbe la f layer should be crumbs; cover with pastry, strain juiee and put in just before covering. < ’lams can be used the same way. A BRiLEIANT and useful future is predicted for the milkweed, which has heretofore been considered culy .1 enuiberer of the ground. Its seeds yield a finer oil than tiuseed ; its gum can be used iu place of Iudia rubber; and from its lioss a fabric resembling Irish poplin has beeu made ;\vhilethe y oung shoots are used in the spring by some people instead of asparagus, [ which they resemble iu flavor. So it is given out, but we do uot know on what authority. If true all will re joice. The only thing that the milk [ weed has heretofore beeu good for, was iu removing warts, for which purpose we have never known it to fail. (.’orx loses one-fifth by drying and "heat one-fourteenth. From this the estimate is made that it is more prof itable for farmers to sell nnshelled ora in the fall at 75 cents than at j 00 a bushel in the following sum | mer, and the wheat at §1.25 in De cember is equal to $1.50 in the suc ceeding Jane. in the case of pota ioes—taking those that rot and are otherwise lost together with the -hiinkage, there is but little doubt •hat between October and June the loss to the owner who holds them is not less than thirty-three percent. The first requisite of good andsuc cessful farming, is to prepare the * grouud well. Flow deep and pulver ize thoroughly. To merely skim over “flic ground with a sorry plow, and depend on the seasons to do the rest fur the crop, is unwise, the result of ignorance or laziness—both a crime in these enlightened days of civiliza tion' Those who take good care te prepare the grouud well for the re ception of seeds, are the men who hardly ever fail to make money farm ing. Save Your Sugar.—Every house keeper should know that sugar boil ed with an acid, if it be but for three minutes, will be converted into glu cose, which is the or in of sugar found iu sweet apples. One pound of sugar has as much sweetening power as 2-jf pouuds of glucose. In other Aords, 1 pound of sugar stirred into the fruit after it is cooked, and while vet warm, will make the fruit as f sweet'as 2J pounds added while the f fruit is boiling. Cpi Meat Bread.— A beefsteak chop- • * ped up tine and baked with Hour aud yeast iu the form of a “meat-bread” loaf is the latest dietlc sensation. It is asserted that meat thus treated en tirely disappears during the process of purification, the nut rive principles becoming incorporated with the blend. M. Scheurer Cestner has just been explaining the process. Agriculture is the foundation interest of the country—an interest which is the source of supply physical wauto of all classes, nursery of euergy and virtse equally essential recuperation waste aud enervation healthful pursuits.
