A man can stand con- tinuous bedily labor far better than mental Strain. The fatigue which school teachers ex- rience at the close of their day’s work is not odily fatigue so much asa drain on the vital Strength caused by the constant demand on the brain. When the brain is overworked the whoie nervous system suffers. One of the chiet symptoms of coming brain trouble is sleepless- ness. Very few journalists can drop into quiet siumber after a night's exhausting work. No eTgyman, after an evening's sermon, can be sure of sleep, however valuable his discourse may have proved in producing sleep among his congregation. In short,no man who uses his brain all the time can keep up, not only the mental strain, but his bodily health, with- out using some nervine. Some try to stupefy themselves by a narcotic, others resort to ex- cessive fatigue to cure themselves of sleeepless- Ress. But .

Mrs. Hayes went atonce to the door, and saw a ray of light sti through an aperture. ‘She cailed, there?” and, receiving no reply, threw open the She Saw no one, but heard the steps of a man rapidly descenditig the stairs, “Mr. Hayes having by this time been aroused took a revol- Yer and went on a double-quick down the stairs, but did not overtake the burgiar or burg- lars. "When he reached the dining-room he felt a blast of cold airand discovered that one of the windows opening upon the yard in therear was open. He wentover the house caretully and found evidences of a visit from burglars in i the rooms of the main floor. Drippings from @ wax candle were found on tie carpets. From the drawers of sideboards und cabinets the burglars had collected all the silverware and other articles of value. They had helped them- selves to Mr. Hayes’ cigars and sampled and re- freshed themselves with his liquors. The silver- Ware was all ready to take from the house, but in their hasty retreat the burglars left it. They had gained entrance to the house by climbing & fence in the rear and forcing the bolt of one of the dining-room windows with a knife. piensa eect Tue CHURCH CHORAL Ustox.—The third season of this admirable organization in Wash- ington has now very nearly reached comple- tion, and a closing concert will be given at the Congregational chureh May 4th, when a chorus of about one hundred and fifty voices will take part.
