EDITORS ERPORTIR :-A second Sun
day School Convention for the 'Western
part of Sullivan Co., Pa., was held at:Be
thel, September 11,1878. in two sessions,
at 2 and 7:30 o'clock r. at. Both sessions
were opened with singing and Prayer. At
the Convention held last May a commit
tee wan elected to draft a constitution for
a permanent Sunday School • Associaticin.
This committee reported a constitution
which; with some additions was adopted.
- The permanent organization' was form
ed, and officers were elected to bold office
_for one year from the second Tuesday. in
next October.
The Association 'takes the name of
" The Sunday School Association of the
Western part of Sullivan County," and is
to include all evangelical Sunday School
workers within its limits. Members are
to sign the Constitution and pay ten cents
,into, its treasury. The assOciation is •to
hold Coe - annual meeting on • the second
Tuesday in October after this year. '
The attendance at the above convention
was very good.. .The occasion was enliv
ened with with good vocal and instrumen
tal music. Several good essays were read,
and a number of questions were dismissed
to some length. We think much good
will result from these gatherings.

OW TO KEEP CLEAN.—Onto or twice
-week-is often enough for any decent
• bite man to wash hiinsalf all over, and
'bether in summer or winter that ought ,
to be with soap, warm water and a bog's
air brush, in a i room showing at least
seventy degrees Fahrenheit. itaths should
e taken early in the morning,',: as it is
then the system . possesses the power of
reaction in the highest degree. Any kind
of bath is soon after a meal, or
soon after:fatiguing exercise. No man or
woman should take a bath at the close of
the day unless by the advice of-the family
physician. The best mode of keeping . the
sun face of the body clean, besides the
once a \ week washing already mentioned,
is as fi • As soon as you get out of
bed in -ring, wash your face, neck
and bi o the smile basin of water
put be once for about a Minute,
rubbing tuet,. ariskly all the time; then
with-the'towel, \ which has been dampened
by the face, feet, \ e' "pe the body well,
fast and - hard, w' la shut and chest
projecting. Let le thing be done
n less than five At night when
you go to bed, ienever you find
yourself wakeful or restle\3,
, spend from
two to fire minutes in rubbing your whole
body with your whole band, so far as you
can reach in every direction. \This has a
tendency to preserve that softness - and
mobility of the skin which is essential to
health., and which too frequent washings
will always destroy.—Thars Jourittif
