he will be surprised to gee how the troubles that 
have oppressed him are brushed away, and the

While other modes of treatment are expensive, 
this not only costs absolutely nothing, hut it is a 
gource of revenue to the patient. It removes 
not only sickness and despondency, but pov¬ 
erty also. It is a remedy for all the ills that 
flesh is heir to. 
Though this system is the best of any for the 
cure of complaints, its great superiority is as a 
prophylactic. If properly administered to a 
healthy subject, it will prevent all disease. The 
next neighbor to the writer of this died at ninety- 
four, of old age. A few days before his death, in 
conversation with him, we asked him if he bad 
ever consulted a physician. lie replied that he 
never had. 
“Were you ever sick ?” 
to speak to me,—to say that she was not injured, 
— that she was not suffering,— that she was safe 
and happy in ray arms. 1 called her by every 
endearing name, and then and there poured out 
my whole heart iu a wild torrent of passion. Her 
attention seemed riveted on some other object 
My eyes instinctively taking the direction of 
hers, I saw, standing near us, an unearthly look¬ 
ing figure, clad in a black, flowing robe, with a 
scarlet shawl falling over her head and shoul¬ 
ders. Her eyes were fixed upon us, and, in a 
hollow and jeering tone, and, with an expression 
of countenance, half-pitiful, half-demonica. 6he 
muttered:—“ The Storm-Spirit has her !*’ Recog¬ 
nizing the cause of the disaster. I exclaimed:— 
“Infernal imp! Go back to your haunt, or to 
Hades, where you luriong!” when she immedi¬ 
ately fled, trooping to the mountain. 
I)r ana now gave me her attention and whis¬ 
pered that she was not seriously hurt, that she 
was only stunned, and would soon be able to sit 
up aud walk. 
Her kind words to David, on starting, were 
providentially directed, for, our horses having re¬ 
turned home riderless, he immediately came out 
in search of us, and we soon saw the carriage 
coming up the deserted way we had taken. I 
placed her on the cushions, and, leaning against 
me for support, she was able to ride home. 
During this ride 1 spoke to her many words of 
endearment and thankfulness for her safety, 
confident that my tenderest expression met. a 
welcome. 
For several days she kept, her room. One 
morning, at sunrise, I saw her trunks in the hall, 
strapped and marked for a journey, while the 
carriage stood ready to take her to the station. 
She descended the stairs, equipped in traveling 
costume, but with a weak and faltering step and 
pale countenance. She gave me her hand, say¬ 
ing :— “Good-bye, Cousin Epson, God bless 
you !” and she was gone. 
On going into the library I found a fresh bou¬ 
quet on the table, and the following note: 
“ Mv Dkak Cousin Edson:—I earnestly ask 
pardon for what I have done, and humbly hope 
to bo forgiven. I have inadvertently wounded 
your great, good heart. I only sought, to awaken 
your social nature, and had tio idea of the feeling

A LEAP OF LIFE 
BY E. A. SANDFORD, 
CRAIG MICROSCOPE! 
[Concluded from page llfiof our last No.] 
We commenced our study. She came to the 
library, punctually, every day. We looked over 
our mathematics, in which her advancement 
quite equaled mine, though neither of us made 
very groat progress. Then we spent some time 
in reading, intermingled with an abundance of 
conversation. This was a new life to me. Books 
which I had failed to understand now became 
not only intelligible, but of absorbing interest. 
Expressions of sentiment, which I had hitherto 
regarded as puling nonsense, now seemed the 
natural breathing of the heart. Not only were 
my perceptions stimulated, but I seemed to have 
gained a new sense. 1 reveled in a new world 
of thought and feeling. 
Diana, or Cousin I)i, as she insisted on my 
calling her, was becoming every day more and 
move life-like to me,— more real,— something 
more like myself. She had a quiet, natural man¬ 
ner, and approached uiu with an easy familiarity 
to which I was quite unaccustomed. All un¬ 
daunted by my shrinking reserve, she manifested 
an interest in me which no one had ever before 
expressed. She would banter mo, in a playful 
manner, on my approaching age, asked me who 
made my coat, said drab did not become me, 1 
should wear black,—told me my hair needed 
trimming, and that the cord and tassels on my 
study-gown were worn, and should be replaced 
by new ones,— surprised me by making me a 
very neat rutiled dicky which she stud would give 
me the appearance of having a greater depth of 
chest,— embroidered me a pair of slippers, and 
constantly surprised me with little familiar at 
tentions which I lmd never before received. She 
seemed never to tire of reading, singing, or play* 
ing for my entertainment,—in fact, she opened a 
new existence for mo of which she was the cen¬ 
ter,— the sun from which I received all the 
warmth and light that had ever shone upon my 
solitary life. 
I was a new creature. The world was 
newly peopled. Duka was the world. I won¬ 
dered I had ever before thought I lived, My 
previous life now looked to me a strangeness and 
asolitude. I had then found my delight iu study¬ 
ing mathematics and astronomy — 1 now learned 
of her a subtler science than the colleges teach. 
My heart, was a boiling caldron to which my 
manner was a miserable incrustation of ice. I 
met her frankness with more than my usual shy¬ 
ness-wrapped myself up in an increasing re¬ 
serve; and, though I lived only in her presence. 
I never sought it, nor even, on occasion of her 
favoring me with her company, so much a? ex¬ 
pressed an ordinary form of welcome. I waited 
for her coming.—my heart sank when she with¬ 
drew, but I never thought even of the possibility 
of telling her how dear she had become to me. 
Those who have always been loved,—who are 
accustomed to receive little endearing attentions 
from their kind,—understand the language of the 
heart and speak it easily, naturally and fluently; 
indeed every feeling of their heart wells up and 
overflows from their lips. But to me it was an 
unknown tongue. My emotions were too deep 
to even seek for a surface manifestation. 
One afternoon Diana came to the library and 
said:—“My dear cousin Epson. I wish you 
would accompany me on an equestrian excur¬ 
sion. I am anxious to sec Mouul Dorth before 1 
leave, and Lucy thinks it is too fur for her to 
ride. I thought I would go alone, and my horse 
is ready, but my courage fails me. There is a 
singular story connected with this mountain, and 
I feel strangely superstitious to-day.” 
I immediately ordered my horse. This was 
the first time I had heard her speak of leaving,— 
the first time I had thought of the possibility of 
such an event But I had not made an effort to 
retain her by attaching her to myself. As well, 
thought I, might a Seraph consort with a Sphinx, 
a Yenus with a Yulcau! Impossible!

say forgive me for the great wrong I have done 
you, and still love me us 
Your friend and cousin, Diana.” 
After the first grief-struggle, the first agony of 
feeling was passed, I submitted. I had never 
before hoped anything of the world, and now 
this great hope had become a great sorrow. “ I 
am strong enough to sustain if,” I said. “May 
Diana be happy. It is enough to know that such 
an one lives somewhere on earth, and sometimes 
thinks of me.” 
Forgive you, iny dear Diana!— as I hope to be 
forgiven. You first awakened in my heart the 
pulsations of life. It is joy enough now that it 
may ever beat true to your memory.

“Report, ever ready to explain supernatural 
appearances, gives a romantic little incident as 
accounting for this. A young lady, residing near 
here, was one day wandering with her lover over 
the mountain, when, being surprised by a storm, 
they sought shelter under the spreading branches 
of gn oak. The lightning struck the tree, stun¬ 
ning the lady, and instantly killing the gentle¬ 
man. When her consciousness returned, and she 
saw that her companion was dead, her reason 
wandered. She lias since been a partial lunatic, 
remaining on the mountain much of ttie time du¬ 
ring the summer season, waiting for the storm to 
bring back her lover. 
“ 1 want to go on the mountain, to the 
blighted oak, so that if possible I may sec this 
ghost, banshee, or storm-spirit, 1 think heaven's 
cannonading will have brought, her out to-day.” 
We had now reached tin* bank of a mountain 
stream which the storin had swollen almost to a 
torrent. The ruinous old bridge, which had 
spanned it, was nearly destroyed; one side of the 
pier, which had served as a central support, hav¬ 
ing given way, the stones were scattered in the 
Stream, and the water dashed furiously over 
them. Enough of the bridge remained to serve 
a s a safe footing for a pedestrian, but the horses 
could not go over. Diana suggested that we go 
directly to the mountain and commence the as¬ 
cent, or that, we should tie our horses and make 
the rest of our way ou foot I objected to either 
plan, as this side of the mountain was too precip¬ 
itous to att'ord an easy ascent, and the way lead¬ 
ing around it was too far for her to walk. 
“Whatcan-we do then ?” said Duka, “I can¬ 
not return without seeing the * Maid of the Moun¬ 
tain,’ now that everything is propitious.” 
“ The horses can lord the stream,” said I. “ See, 
the water is not deep,— scarcely above their 
knees. They are sure-footed, and will make 
their way among these scattered rocks. I'll war¬ 
rant them. But give them the reins and we will 
be taken carefully and safely to the other side. 
Will you go?” 
“The water is rapid, and looks threatening,” 
said Diana, “but the instinct of the animals will 
guide them. I'll risk it.” 
As we approached the center of the stream, 
Diana dropped the reins, and stooped to take up 
the skirt of her riding-dress, which was floating 
on the water. Just at this moment an object 
started up from behind the end of the bridge. 
Diana's horse gave a bound, escaping completely 
from beneath her, precipitating her into the 
stream. I immediately sprang to her relief, and 
carried her to the shore, dripping with water, 
and stunned by concussion on the rocks. 1 held 
her in iny arms—chafed her temples, and im¬ 
plored her to return to life. After a little lime 
she appeared conscious, but uuable to speak. My 
conscience smote me mightily. I felt as though 
my rashness had been the means of destroying, 
not a single life, but a world—that all was in¬ 
volved iu ruin. I begged her to recognize me,— 
A BLISTER IN THE PALM 
nKMKDY' KOl-t DISEAS Ill 
We proclaim another mode of treating disease 
— a treatment that casts honneopathy, hydro¬ 
pathy, steam-doctoring, the movement cure, and 
the science of therapeutics itself entirely into the 
shade. It. is well known that all those systems, 
though they make a loud noise in the world, 
really accomplished very little; nearly all pa¬ 
tients who recover under the treatment of phy¬ 
sicians of any school, would have recovered 
without the aid of the physician, and it is very 
seldom indeed that fatal diseases are diverted 
from their course by putting drugs into the 
the stomach. But our system is effectual; it will 
cure many of the worst diseases to which man¬ 
kind are subject, aud will prevent them all. It 
is as simple as it. is powerful; it is nothing more 
than raising a blister in the palm of the hand. 
The blister must not lie raised by cantharides or 
other poisonous irritants, but must be produced 
by friction, accompanied with an alternate con¬ 
traction and extension of the muscles. If the 
operation acts as a sudorific, inducing a sensible 
perspiration between the clavicles and above the 
eyebrows, it is all too more efficacious. Almost 
any solid silbstan^may be employed for arimin-
