REPORTERS OF NATURE.
''Nature will be reported," says Emerson. '.'All things are engaged in writing their history. The planet, the pebble, goes attended, by its shadow; the rolling rock leaves its. scratches -on the mountain; the river its channel in. the soil; the aiiiraal its\ bones' in the stratum, the fefn and leaf its modest epitaph in the coal. The falling drop makes its sculpture in the sand or the stone". Not a foot stops into the snow or along the ground but prints, ~ in characters more or^ less lasting, a map on. its march. 'Every act of the man inscribes itself in the memories cf its fellows and in his own manners and face. The air «is full of sounds, the sky of tokens, the ground is all memoranda -and signature, % and every object covered over' with hints which speak to the intelligent.'" And the strongest hint which appeals to the intelligence of man is that of using 'nature's "remedy when sickness Comes- his way. And the remedy— Nature's remedy— made from herbs and liotanic substances, is to bo found in lmpey's Apple. 2s Gd everywhere.
