Song of the Vineyard.
A blessing on the vineyard rows,
Upon the grape where’er it grows,
Upon the limpid juice (hat flows
From its delicious clusters.
Oh balmy spring-time bring the dew;
Warm summer smile from heaven’s blue,
Till sun and shower the time renew—
The time of vintage joyous.
Dark Isabella’s bunches bring,
The Warren’s richer offering,
And Pauline’s sugary berries fling
Upon the heaping baskets.
We’il drink no longer poisoned wine,
Liquor that never knew the vine,
While we’ve a juice almost divine,
The harvest of our hill sides.
A blessing on the vineyard rows,
Upon the grape where’er it grows,
Upon the ruby wine that glows
And sparkles in our glasses.
Hot Tallow a Cure for Ingrowing
Nails.—VVe take the following remedy
for a very common and very painful af
fection, from the Boston Medical and
Surgical Journal:
“ The patient on whom l first tried this
plan was n young I tdy. who had not put
on a shoe for several months, and de
cidedly the worst case that I have ever
seen The disease had been of long
standing. The edge of the na 1 was
deeply undermined, the granulations
formed a high ridgp, partly covered with
skin, and pus constantly oozed from toe
root of the nail. The whole toe was
swollen and extremely tender and pain
ful. My mode of proceeding was this:
I put n very small piece of tallow in a
spoon and heated it over a lamp till it be
came very hot, and poured it on the gran
ulations. The effect was almost magical.
Pa in and tenderness was at once removed,
and in a few days the granulations were
all gone, the diseased parts were dry and
destilu'e of feeling, and the edge of the
nail exposed so as to admit of being pared
away without any inconvenience. The
cure was complete, and the trouble never
returned.
--
otntrLowERS.— rrnt. Maury in a re
cant work stales that abundance of sun
flowers growing about a place is a sure
preventative against fever and ague and
that he has lasted it in many of the mosi
unhealthy localities in the Southern
States. Tlte remedy is easily tried.
They are to he sown late so as to arrive
at maturity in the Fall, and to be placed
between the dwelling and the point at
which the miasma is supposed to arise.
The theory Is that they absorb the mias
ma which cause the disease.
M s. Swis-helm says that the popular ty
of her paper in Minnesota is due to the fact
that •* people are always expecting she will
say something she ought not to.”
