TWO LITTLE ROGUES.

i

BY MRS. A. M. DIAS.

SsAavs Sethnny iw Dick. ‘Come hurry! Come quick ! And we'll do, and we'll do, and we ldo! Our mammy's away, she’s gone for to stay, te And we'll make her a great hullabaloo! Ri too! ri loo! leo! leo! loo! : We'll make a great hullabaloo! |

Says Dicky to Sam, | * All weddy [am Te do, and to do, and to do: | But how doesth it go” | so little to know, Thay, what be a hullabawoo * Ri too! ri loo! woo! weo! woo! Sav, what be a hullabawoo!” |

And whingings and whangings, And every bad mischiet we'll do! We'll clatter and shout, And knock things about, And that’s what’s a hullabaloo! Ri teo! ri leo! loo! leo! loo! And that’s what's a hullabaloo!

«Oh, slammings and bangings,

‘*Slide down the front stairs! Tip over the chairs ;

i. into the pantry break through! Pall down all the tinware, And pretty things in there ;

All around a hullabaloo! Pi too! ri loo! loo! loo! loo!

All aboard for a hullabaloo!

‘* Now roll up the table. lar up as you're able, Chairs, sofa—big easy chair too! Put the lamps and the vases In funny old places. How’s this for a hullabaloo * Ri too! ri loo! leo! loo loo!

How’s this for a hullabaloo ? |

‘* Let the dishes and pans Be the womans and mans ;

iverybody keep still in their pew. Mamma’s gown [ll get nert, And preach you a text.

Dicky! hush with your hullabaloo! bt too! ri loo! loo! loo! loo!

Dicky! hush with your hullabaloo!

As the preacher in gown

(‘limbed up and looked down His queer congregation to view,

Sail Dicky to Sammy,

‘*Oh, dere comes our mammy! She'll pank for dis hullabawoo!

Iti too! ri loo! woo! woo! woo! Sie LL pank for dis hullahawoo!

“(), mammy! O, mammny .. Cried Dicky and Sanumy, «We'll never again, certain true!” But with firm step she trod ‘lo take down the rod «), then came the hullabaloo! ‘« ohoo! bohoo! woo! woo! woo!” ‘), then came the hullabaloo!

Did not Figure Right.

The Detroit Free Press says that wheo ‘Thomas drove up to a house on Eliza- peth street the other day to deliver the usual quart of mixture, the gentleman of the house kiadly inquired : “‘ Thomas, how many quarts of milk do you deliver ?’ - Ninety-one, sir ?’”? “And how many cows have yon ?” “Nine, sir.” The ventleman made some remarks about an early spriug, close of the Kastern war, and then asked: “Say, Thomas, how much milk per day do your cows average ?”’ «“ Seven quarts, sir?’ “ Ahem,’” said the ventleman, as he moved off. Thomas looked after him, rubbed his head,and all at once grew pale, as he pulled out a short pencil and began to figure on the wagon cover.

Care of Infants.

_——— + - -

A Manchester, (Eng.) physician, Dr. Crompton, who has made a study of the care of infants, gives some information ot «reat importance to mothers, in regard to the cause of common deformities known as bow-legs and knock-knees. Ile ats tributes the first-mentioned destortion to a habit some youngsters delight in, of rubbing the sole of one foot against that of the other; some will go to sleep with the soles pressed together. They appear to enjoy the contact only when the feet are naked; they don’t attempt to make it when they are socked or slippered. The remedy is simply to keep the baby’s soles covered. Knocksknees the doctor ascribes to a different childish habit, that of sleep- ing on the side, with one knee tucked into the hollow behiad the other. Here the preventive is to pad the inside of the knees, so as io keep the limbs growing treely their own way.

An Op Fasutonep Bustness.—Shoe- making is of great antiquity. The iustru ment for cleching hides, the shoemaker’s bristle, added to yarn, and his knife were as early as the twelfth ceatury. He was accustomed to hawk his goods, and it is conjectured that there was a separate trade for annexing the soles. The Romans, in classical times, wore cork soles in their shoes, to seeure the feet from water, es. pecially in winter, and, as high heels were not then introduced, the Roman ladies who wished to appear taller, put plenty of cork under them. The streets of Rome, in the time of Domitian, were blocked up by cebblers’ stalls, which he, therefore, caused to be removed. In the Middle Ages shoes were cleaned by washing with a sponge and oil; soap and grease were the substitutes for blackiog. Buckles were worn on shoes in the fourteenth een- tury. In Ireland a human skeleton was found with marks of buckles on the shoes. {n England they became fashionable many

——— = a

|the laboring classes wore them of copper ;

other persons had them of silver or copper silt; not long after shoe roses came 10. Buckles revived befort the revolution 10 1789, and finally Lecame extinct before

the close of the eighteenth century. —s

The Greatest Medical Discovery since the Creation of Man, or since the Commencement of the Christian Era.

t oe There never has been a time when the heal- ing of so many different diseases has been caused by outward application as the present. It is an undisputed fact that over half of the entire population of the globe resort to the use

of ordinary plasters.

DR. MELVIN’S CAPsicuM Porovs PLASTERS are acknowledged by all who have used them, to act quicker than any other plaster they ever before tried, and that one of these plasters will do more real service than a hundred of the ordinary kind, All other plasters are slow of action, and reqnire to be worn continually to effect a cure; but with these it is entirely dif- ferent: the instant one is applied the patient will feel its effect.

Physicians in all ages have thoroughly tested and well know the effect of Capsicum; and it has always been more or less used as & medieal agent for an outward application; but it is only of very recent date that its advan- tages in a porous plaster have been discovered. Being, however, convineed of the wonderful eures effected by Dr. MELVIN’S CAPSICUM Porous PLAsTeRs, and their superiority over all other plasters, they now actually prescribe them, in their practice, for such diseases as rheumatism, pain in the side and back, and all such cases as have required the use of plasters orliniment. After you have tried other plas- ters and liniments, and they have failed, and you want a certain cure, ask your druggist for DR. MELVIN’s CAPSICUM PoROUS PLASTER. You can hardly believe your own convictions of its wonderful effects. Although powerful and quick in its aetion, you can rely On its safety for the most delicate on to wear, as it is free from lead and other poisénous material commonly used in the manufacture ef ordin- ary plasters. One trial is a sufficient guarantee of its merits, and one plaster will seli hundreds to pj friends.

sk your druggist for DR. MELVIN’s CAPsT- cum Porous PLASTER, and take no other; or, on receipt of 25 cents for one, $1 for five, or $2 for a dozen, they will be mailed, post paid, to any address in the United States or Canadas.
