r A Year Ago. BY GEOROK KRIXGLER. I was so rich a year ago That every day A little child looked up to me Amid its play. I was so very rich because That child was mine; I did not think he was but lent A little time. I dreamed for him bright dreams, And he? The castles that he built Were all for me. I cannot tell you, if I try, 'a How golden bright The head upon my pillow Every night. I never could begin to tell? I wish I could? How sweet this child of mineHow sweet, how good; Or half how rich I felt myself, You do not know How very rich I was A year ago. What Was the Secret? "Daisy! Daisy Gregory!" It was a weak little voice that called li?r hut Daisv turned about, aud walked back to the wee girl who owned it. "What is it Grade?" she said; for Grade's eyes were red with crying. "Would you p'lease go back home with me, Daisy, and not mind ? Some of the boys called me Humpy, as 1 came along, and I'm afraid." O yes, indeed ! Take right hold of v my hand, and don't be afraid, I'll fix those boys." There was a dangerous light in the big black eyes, as Daisy spoke; and the proud little head, set so gracefully upon the firm shoulders, was held a trifle more erect. "Aren't you ashamed of yourse.ves, Willie Duiton and Frank Turner, to call a poor little lame girl names V J should think God would hear you, and be very angry and perhaps make you lame to punish you. 1 would, if 1 were he. And you needn,t put any more oranges in my desk, Willie; oi bring me any more flowers, Frankie. Mamma tells me, to have nothing to do with boys who are not gentlemen." Then, having said her say with flashing eyes, Daisy held the little hand tighter, and drew Gracie along past the boys?who hung . their heads, blushing rosy red with shame?and never let go her grasp until she had set the little one down at her mother's door; then kissing her gently, and telling her not to mind, because Jesus knew all about it and in heaven she wouldn't be lame any more, she ran toward home. "Daisy, will you please come in a minute!' called Susie Sherman, as she passed her door. "I cant get this sum right, and I have been trying so hard!' "Yes, indeed! Let me help you, then. Mamma says we must always try, before we get help, to see what we can do. Daisy's pencil flew fast along the slate, and there was the troublesome example which she had solved that morning for herself. "Thank you so much," said Susie. "You are always so good. You always seem to love to'help, Daisy." "Well, 'tis fun to make people happy. Don't you think so? It pleases God, you know, too. Now I must run home, for mamma'll be wondering where I am; and I never like to worry her, and she worries easy. Good-bye. " What can I do to help you, mamma dear?' she said as she finished her dinner. Not a word of the new book she was longing to begin. "Could you take care of the baby while I have a little nap, dear? My head aches. I was up with him so much last night." "Yes, indeed! Come, darling, come to sister!" The hot little hands were held out so gladly; and the teething baby's head soon dropped upon her shoulder, as she walked back and forth to still his crying. i/uuiu jruu xicip jiitr iuut\r a imlc, sister Daisy ?" said her brother Charlie, just as she sat down ou the broad window seat, to read two hours later, I want one so much?" Daisy's face bore no trace of annoyance. "Yes, Harry," she answered. "Bring your thiugs. I know how to make a splendid one ; for I helped Jamie make his." "Can you read the paper to me a little while, daughter?" said the tired father, coming in, and throwing himself down on the lounge, quite exhausted. "Just the principal news." Daisy knew what this meant, but she cheerfully laid her book aside. "I don't know how I could live without my little daughter," he said, as he drew ner down to kiss the rosy cheek. "That is all the pay I want, papa,' answered Daisy. "It's easv enoutrh to be erood where Daisy is," said cEarlie, who -was putting an extra bob to his kite. 'I'm the envy of alltbe boys. They every one think she's the handsomest and the nicest girl in school; and they're right, too. Daisy's face grew crimson. "You'll all spoil me, I'm afraid," she said. "But I'm so glad you love me! I'm sure I don't know why; but I'm the1 happiest girl in the world." Refined and graseful manners are worthy of the most careful cultivation. A true gentleman is gentle and true at all times. That refinement which behaves according to rule with scrupulous exactness at courtly entertainments, but suffers its possessor to act rudely toward the most obscure neigh? ' bor or servant, is an artificial grace which can be put on for the occasion and laid aside at convenience. Geutilin* tirkinVi io rvamiirto icj ilicanornlkln ItJ YYU1VU AO ^CilUIUV ??awv^M<MvtV from the personality*. It has its scat in the character. It beautifies the entire being, and shines with undimmed luster under all circumstances. A con?imporary revives an old story about General Washington which is worthy of wide circulation. Having established his head-quarters at a certain farm-house, the general learned that a t . 4 sick girl occupied au upper room, and gave strict orders that no gun should be fired and no drum beat ne*\r the place. Alter supper, having retired quietly to his room, he heard an uproar in the dining-room caused by the boisterous behavior or tne tnougnuess members of his staff. Opening his door gently, he walked ou tiptoe noiselessly across the room, and taking a book from the mantel he returned in tbe same way, bidding his officers good-night, with a bow and a smile, elosed his door with such care as to make no disturbance. In this beautiful behavior he rebuked the careless men effectually, and displayed a degree of thoughtfulness for the suffering which would have been impossible in a rude, uncultured person, and exhibited a type of manhood worthy of admiration and imitation. Hut such refinement is not to be had for wishing, nor is it born with its possessor. It is the result of genuine grace and painstaking self-culture. "Doctor," said the greatful patient, seizing the physician's hand, "I shall never forget that to you I owe my life." "You exaggerate," returned the doctor, mildly; "You owe me only for fifteen visits." v - --ii -> ' Duties are ours; events are the Lord's. The eyes believe themselves, the ears other people. Promises make debts, and debts, make promises. It is a great point of wisdom to find out one's own folly. Wealth is not having possesions, it is being able to use them. ^War is a game in which princes seldom win : the people never. He who takes the child by the hand, takes the mother by the heart. Give not an hair breadth of truth away; for it is not yours, but God's If I am faithful to the duties of the present, God will provide for the future. He who reigns within himself and rules his passions, desires and fears, is [ more than a king. * - ? *i? f _ r [ ivs cuiuiiy requires ior^eiiuiness ui evil deeds so patience requires forgetfulness of evil accidents. Right principle, right practice, and right feefing sro together, and are never far apart. Mark the order. As a rule, there is no surer way to the dislike of men than to behave well where they have behaved badly. There is a transcendent power in example. "We reform others unconsciously when we walk uprightly. It is time for a crusade against the carrying of arms, or, at least, for a new preaching of the gospel of the Prince of Peace. Let not him who prays suffer his tongue to outstrip his heart; nor presume to carry a message to the throne of grace while that stags behind. Every woman or man however low or degraded, whether wrapped in mere rorre iv-Jin nncwetds flip frptn nf life. wliicli 110 man has been able to define, is a human being. If all the nations of the earth would disband their armies, no wars would be possible; the same would be true if no organizations other than "we, the people" was permitted. One who, receiving seed to sow, has at seed-time not sown it, inflicts loss upon his master: although he has not lost the seed, yet there is a loss in proportion as there might have been gaiu if he had sown at fit time. "There is no substitute for personal piety. It is the true influence against which sin cannot stand. Herein is ray Father glorified that ye bear much fruit, so shall ye be my disciples. This io Phricf'c voonrrnitinn nf hio npnnlp " ~ V,. "The Church in the world," says a recent writer, "is like a ship on the ocean. The ship is safe enough in the ocean, so long as the ocean is not in ship. The Church is safe enough in the world, so long as the world is not the Church." The common fireplace helps much to ventilate a room, since it draws to it the air of the room, which causes fresh air to come in from without; while it [ thus heats the air of the room, it secures a supply. It is, however, very expensive if we seek to heat the whole room, since there is so much waste of heat. People who are always taking care of their health are like misers who are 1 hoarding up a treasure which they never have the spirit to enjoy. Whenever you buy or sell, let or hire, make a clear bargain, and never trust to "we shan't disagree about trifles." The State of South Carolina, COUNTY OF ABBEVILLE. COURT OF COMMON PLEAS. L. A.
