THINGS TO REMEMBER BY.

If a great fortune were unexpectedly lott me (and it would be unexpected), I'll wager anything that I should novor forget the timo or placo whore I first hoard of it. Or if I should go home to-night and riud (which God forbid) my houso burned up, and ovorything in it, I'm equally certain that the main circumstances connected with the event would stick in my memory until all the past's pictures fade out in the light of the life that is to be.

It makes the head ache, tho akin yellow and dry and finally is expelled from tho mouth, as thU woman says. Nature can't use it tho right) way, so sho throws ib overboard the best way she can, whiob is a bad and sickening way indeed. Our lady friend j>oes on to mention that hor tongue was covered with thick slime, her appetite wan poor, she had a foul taste in tli« mouth, and what she ate gave her I groat pain in tho chest and back.
