CHILDREN'S COLUMN. Welly's Tca-rnriy. Nelly Ray lives in a brown cottage down by the river. There are not many houses near, and no little children to play with her. One day her mamma took her to the city to visit her cousin. She was older than Nelly, and had a good many playmates. While Nelly was there Emma had a tea-party and invited her little friends. Nelly enjoyed it ve'ry much, and after she went home wanted to have a party of her own. ' "But," said her mamma, "whom will you invite?" "Oh, I don't know," replied Nelly. "I can find sQUiebodv, I think. And I'll have my dolls." Nelly had three dolls—Maria Louisa, Victoria and Cinderella. Then she had a little dog named Frisk* and three cats. Snowdrop was the mother, and Punch and Judy Were kittens. Nelly thought that with all of them she could have quite a party. f Her mamma gave her some co)kie& and milk. Sho picked a bouquet of daisies and buttercups for her table. Maria Louisa and Victoria were tak ing their afternoon nap when they were invited, but Cinderella was no where to be found. It took Nelly some time to remember where she had her l;ist. And where do you think it was? Up in the old apple-tree! Then Nelly called Frisk and Snowdrop, and of course Punch and Judy came running after. - So they went to Nelly's little play house. They all had to sit on the ground except Victoria, who had a high chair. They soon ate up the re freshments, and as only Nelly could talk, the party did not last long. v:;„ 1 "Oh, mamma," said Nelly, "it was such a funny party; Frisk wanted all the cake, and while I was talking to Maria Louisa and Victoria, Punch and Judy drank up all the milk. Then poor Cinderella rolled clown the bank, but Frisk brought her back again. I don't believe Snowdrop had a mouthful to eat. And I'd rather have my supper with you." "Well," s.ud mamma, "now go put your dollies to bed and have a good ruu with Frisk. By the time you come back supper will bo ready, and I'll tell you a story."— Our Little Ones. i Honorable Scars. There is one member of the present United States government whose face is so scarred as to be pitiful to look upon; but the story of these scars is a record so honorable that no decoration of the Legion of Honor confers more glory than do these cruel seams and gashes. When this man of whom we write was but a boy, he was sitting with his younger sister before the fire of a country house, where they were spend- j ing the Christmas holidays. Did a spark snap from the blazing wood that crackled so merrily upon the hearth ? Or did some incautious movement on the girl's part bring her dress too near the blaze? At any rate, in an instant her clothes were all aflame. The boy loved his pretty sister even more, perhaps, than most brothers do. Ile.was proud of her cleverness and of her beauty. Should the fierce flames scorch her life out before bis eyes? lie caught a wrap from the sofa, a rug from the floor. lie wrapped them round her an 1 struggled for her life, so utterly forgetful of himself that, at the end, he was burned almost beyond human recognition, while on her fair girl s face the lire had left no mark. I And the boy was well content. "I am a boy," lie said, "and it does not matter. She could not have borne it." For a long time his life was despair ed of, but at length the vital forces of bis strong youth triumphed, and he went forth into the world again, wear ing his scars for a badge of glory in the eye 3 of all those who knew the tale. lie has made himself one of the men of mark of his generation. lie has won love for himself and distinction and the fair repute of men. But of ah the gains of his life, none do him such honor as those scars of his early battle. The sister, whom he saved from the .awful fate that threatened lier, has won her own laurels also. She lives in Italy amid "the grandeur that was Rome," whence she sends to America some of the brightest and most charm ing work which our journals print. 1 She has a salon where you meet the men and women best worth knowing. Her life is happy and prosperous—but, for all its pleasures, she has to thank the scars which would make her broth- ! er's face unpleasant to look upon, did not the knowledge of how they were won make them his crowning glory.—- Youth's Companion. Cat Flowers, One of the safest and best ways to send a few choice cut flowers to a dis tance is to cut slits in potatoes and in sert the flower steins, taking care that they are firmly fastened in and support ed by a little cotton or paper. An oi" dinary potato will keep most flowers fresh for two weeks or more in a mod • 1 erate temperature. Potatoes can also be used in floral decorations through being disguised by leaves and flowers. —Cultivator.

A New nnd Mom Important Theory One of llie Mnut Vitnl ((iiemionn ol* the lny. If any ono had informed Queen Eliza both In l.er nnlmieat days that she could have been seated in her palace in Ix>ndon andconverseJ with Sir Walter Raleigh in hie North Caro lina homo; receiving a reply from him within an hour's time, ehe would have doclarod it to be a mirnclo. And yet, had they lived in the prosont day, this apparent miracle would nrost readily have been witnessed and not soein at all strange or unnatural. The truth is, new principles are coming into existence, and the operation of many laws unknown in tho past is being fully understood in the presont, In no way does this fact come more forcibly to tho mind than in the care and treatment of tho human body. Millions of people have died in past ages from some in fiignillcant or easily controlled cause which is thoroughly understood" now and rendily handled. Consumption during the entire pi nt has boon consideied nn incurable disease. Aud yet it is demonstrated that it has bocn and can tie cured, even after it has had a lone rim. Dr. Felix Oswald ha just contributed n notable article on this subject to the Popu lar Science MnnfUhj. He regards consump tion as pulmonary scrofula. The impurities of the blood producj a constant irritation in tho lungs, thus destroying their do icate tis kui'B and causing death! His theory shown conclusively that consumption is a blood dis easo. It has its origin primarily in a durungod condition of tho kidneys or liver, the only two organs of the body, aside fiom tho lungs, that purify tho blood. When tl o kidneys or liver are tfipoased they are in asjio or lacerated state, which communicates poison to every ouuoe of blood that passes through them. This poisonous blood circulates through the syntoni aud comes to the lungs, where the poison in deposited, anusing decomposition in the finely formed cell# of the lungs. Auy diseased part of the body has contaminating power, and yet the blood, which is the life of the system* is brought into direct coutiet with those poisoned organs, thus carrying contagion to *1! parts of the body. Hishop Jeaso T. l'eck, I>. 1)., LLD., whose death has been so recently rcgietted, is reported to have died of pucuinonin.'wh ch me lie d Authori ties affirm indicates a diseased condition of tie kidneys. It is well known, moreover, that for several years he had been the victim of severe kidney trouble, a id the pneumonia which finally terminated Ins life was only the last result of the previous blood poisoning. The deadly matter which is left in the lungs by the impure blood clogs up and finally chokes the patient. When this is accom plished rapidly it is called pneutnnraor quick consumption; when slowly, consumption, but in any event it is the result of itnpme blood, caused by diseased kidneys and liver. Torso are facts of sc once, and vouched for by nil the lending physicians of thoday. They show the desirability—nay, the necessity, of keeping these most important organs in per fect condition, not only to insure health, but also to escape death. It Imsbem fully shown, to tho satisfaction of nearly every unpreju diced mind, thai Warner's .Safe Kidney and Liver Cure i* tho only known remedy that can cure and keep in lw.dlh thee great blood purifying organs of tho body. It acts dii ectly upon these mein! ers, healing all ulcers which inay ha\e formed in them, and placing them in a condition to purify and not poison the blood. This is no idle statement nor fnl-e theory. Mr. W. Bench, foreman of the Buffalo (N.Y.) Rubber Type Foundry, was given up to die by both physicians and friends. For four years he hod a terrible cough, ac companied liy night sweat*, clul's, and all the well known symptom*. He spent a season South and found no relief. He says: "I finally conclude J to try Warner's Safe Cure, and iu three months I gained twenty pounds, recovered my lo*t energy and my health was fu'ly le-tored." Tho let could tie prolonged indefinitely, but (nough has been said to prove to e\ery Milfert-r from pulmonic troubles that there is no leason to be di couraged in the least, and that health c.iu be restoiei. Savings Hank Statistics. According to tho re turns made to the commissioner of United States in ternal revenue, the great bulk of the savings deposits in this country is held by the banks in only twelve out of thirty-eight States of the Union. The following will show the amount of the deposits in each of those States as re turned on May 81, 1882, and the popu lation according to the United States census of 1880: Stat©.*. Depoßitn.

Assuming that the population was the same in May, 1882, as in .June, 1880, which is near enough to the truth for the purposes of the present calculation, the deposits in the twelve States named averaged very nearly SSO per head of population. The same average for all the States would bring the aggregate deposits up to the snug sum of $2,465,- QOO.OOO or about $1,110,000,000 more fhan the total interest-bearing debt of the United States.
