THE NORTHERN TRIBUNE, FEBRUARY i2, 18aS. Noethem Tribune. THURSDAY. FEBRUARY 12. 1885. Good Work Or None. Xivlnjj Age. It is a rule that a workman must follow his employer's orders, but no one lias a right to make him do work discreditable to himself. Judge M , a well known jurist living near Cincinnati, loves to tell this anec dote of a young man who understood the risk of doing a shabby job even when directed to. II had once an occasion to send to the village for a carpenter, and a sturdy young fellow appeared with las tools. I want this fence mended to keep oat the cattle. There are some un planed boards use them. It is out of sight from the house, so you need not take time to make it a neat job. I will pay you a dollar and a half.' Tho judge went to dinner, and coming out, found the man carefully planing each board. Supposing that ho was trying to mako a costly job of it, he ordered him to nail them on at once, just as they were, and contin ued his walk. When he returned tho boards were all planed and number6d ready for nailing. I told you this fence was to be covered with vines,' he said angrily: I don't Care how it looks.' 'I do,' said the carpenter gruflly, carefully measuring his work. When it was finished there was no part of the fence as thorough in finish. 'How much do you charge," asked the judge. A. dollar and a half,' said the man shouldering his tools. Tho judge started, 'Why did you spend all that labor on tho job, if not for money?' For tho job, sir.' 'Nobody would have seen the poor work on it.' 'But I would have known it was there. No; I'll take only a dollar and a half.' and ho took it and went away. Ten years afterwards, the judge had the contact to give for the build ing of .several magnificent public buildings. There were many appli cants among master builders, but the face of one caught his eye. 'It was my man of the fence,' ho said. 'I know we should have only good genuine work with him. J gave him the contract and it made a rich man of him.' For Self-Supporting Girl. St. Nichola.! Girls, first make up your minds that you will do something. All the rest will follow. What you shall bo will come more oasilj and clearly in due time. A girl of 13 cannot decide with any discretion or assurance, whether che will bo a sculptor or a wash-woman, a farmer or a poot; but she can de cide distinctly whether it is her wish or her duty after leaving school or college, to" remain dependant upon her parents or to fit herself' for a self providing life. The education by which you meant to get your bread and butter, your gloves and bonnets, is a very different affair from that which you take upon yourself as an ornament and an inter val in life. The chemical experiment which you may some day have to explain lo pupils of your own is quite another thing from the lesson that you may never think of again. Tho practice in bookkeeping, which may some time regulate your deal ings with flesh-and-blood customers, becomes as interesting as a new story. Tho dull old rules for inflection and enunciation fairly turn into poet ry, if you hope to find yourself a great public reader somo coming day. And tho very sawdust of the French or Latin grammer becomes ashes of roses to the stout littlo. fancy that dreams of bravo work and big salary, in somo foreign department at Wash ington or tutoring girls and boys for college. All over the terrible ocean, among the lawless sailors, tho men with wivs and children to work for aro those who lead the gentUst and cleanest lives. So, on the great ocean of school life tho girls with aims to study for are those whose labor' is the richest and tbe ripest. Ah! you will never realize until you have tried what an immense powor over tho life is the power of possessing distinct aims. The voice, the dress, the look, tho very motions of a person define and alter when he or she begins to live for a reason. I fancy that I can select in a crowd ed street ths busy, blessed women who support themselves. They carry themselves with an air of conscious self-respect and self-content which a shabby alpaca cannot hide, nor a bonnet silk enhance, nor even sick ness or exhaustion quite drag out. The Upright Man. Carl Pretzel's Weekly. - To delineate tho character of an upright man, a man of integrity, is a plain one and easily understood. Ho is one who makes it his constant rule to follow tho road of duty, as his conscience points out to him. Ho is not guided merely by affec tions, which may sometimes give tho color of virtue to a looso and unstable character. Tho upright man is guided by a fixed principle or mind, which deter mines him to ' esteem nothing but what is honorable, and to abhor what ever is basa and unworthy in moral conduct. ' , Henco you find him ever the same at all times, the trusty friend, the affectionate relation, tho conscientious man of business, and the public spirit ed citizen. He assumes no borrowed appear ance. He seeks no marks to cover him, for he acts no stupid part; but ho is in trutli what he appears to be, full of truth, candor and humanity. In all pursuits, whether business or political ho knows no part but the fair and direct one iftul would much rather fail of success than attain it by reproachful means. He never shows you a smiling countenance while he meditates evil against you in his hear. He never praises you among your friends and then join in traducing you among enemies. You will never find one part of his character at variance with another. In his manners he is simple and unaffected; in all his proceedings open and consistent. Such is the man of integrity. How to Court in Church. A young gentlemen, happening to sit at church in a pew adjoining one in which sat a young lady for whom he conceived a sudden and violent passion, desirous of entering into a courtship on the spot. But the place not being suitable for a formal dec laration, tho exigency of the case sug gested tho following plan: Ho 'po litely handed his fair neighbor a bible opened with a pm stuck in tho fol lowing text: Second epistle of John, verso fifth: and now I beseech thee lady, not as though I wrote a new commandant unto thee, but that which wo had from tho beginning, that we love one another. She re turned it, pointing to tho second epistle of Ruth, verso tenth: "Then she fell on her faco and bowed her self to the ground and said unto him: 'Why havo I found grace in thine eyes, seeing that I am a stranger?'" He returned tho book, pointing to the thirteenth verso of tho third epis tle of John: "Having many things to write unto you I would uot with pen and ink but I trust, shortly to como unto you and to sneak face to face that our joy may be full." From the abovo interview a mar riage took place the ensuing week. The Nutmeg Tree. This is a native of the East Indies but has been introduced and cultivat ed in the West Indies and in other warm countries; it forms a medium sized tree and is grown in orchards; a nutmeg plantation and a peach orch ard closely resemble each other. Nutmeg culture was at ono time confined to the Bauda Islands, and strong efforts were mado to monopo lize tho production, a scheme which failed, it is stated, on.account of birds carrying the seed and dropping them beyond he assigned limits, and thus spreading the tree over tho whole of the islands, the Malayan Archipelago, from tho moluccas to New Guinea. The tree is cultivated to a limited extent in Jamaica, whero it succeeds best in a deep, rich friable soil, which is drained. Undulating ground is pre ferred in order to assist the ruuning off of all superfluous water, as around its roots, although in order to thrive well it requires an atmosphere of the most humid kind. Young plants are readily raised from fresh seeds. The fruit requires nine months of tropical weather to mature. At the Top of Mount Washington. r A yistor to the top of Mount Wash ington concludes that tho weather is really cold up there. He was convin ced by a walk along the railroad with the wind blowing seventy miles an hour and the thermometci twenty de grees below zero. The temperature does not get lower than in many oth er places, but the wind blows with greater velocity, it is said, than at any known spot in the world, and this makes tho cold unbearable. A ve locity of 180 miles an hour has been attained, while at Pike's Peak, 8,000 feet higher, the greatest is 100 miles, and in New York forty-fivo miles is a heavy gale. Of course tho air has less power as tho density increases, but even with this reduction the cold is so intense that if one covers every part of their body, leaving only the eyes exposed, they a-ie soon coated with frost, which closes the lids and often makes it almost impossible to see. Tho moisture of the breath freezes under tho coverings of the face, and a frost bito b the consequence. A Young Mill' FIrHt Thousand Dollar. Tho first thousand dollars a young man earns and saves will generally settle the question of business with him. It i the iVuit of personal in dustry. He gives his time and labor for it. . While he is thus earning and saving it, lie must earn two or three, or perhaps four times as much to pay current expenses. He is consequent ly held sternly to the task of industry for a considerable peiod. The direct consequence to him is a steady, con tinuous and solid discipline in the habits of industry, in patient, persis tent, forecasting and self-denying ef fort, breaking up all the tendencies to frivolity, and making him an earn est and watchful economist of time. He not only learns how to work, but ho also acquires a lovo of work; and, moreover, he learns the value of tho sum which he has saved out of his earnings. Ho has toiled for it; he has observed its slow increase from time to time; in his estimation it rep resents so many months or years of practical labor. Jurtt A jllnt to the Hoy. M. Quad." I stood in a stcro the other day when a boy came in and applied for a situation. Can you write a good hand?' Vas asked. . 'Yaas. .'Good at figures.' 'Yaas.' .. 'Know the city well.' 'Yaas.' ' 'That will do I don't wan't you, said tho merchant. 'But,' I said, when the boy had gone, 'I know that lad to bo an hon est industrious boy. Why don't you give him a chance.?' 'Because he hasen't learned to say, 'Yes sir,' and 'No sir ' If rje answers me as ho did when applying for a situation, how will ho answer custom ers after being hero a month.' What could I say U that? Ho had fallen into a habit young as ho was, which turned him away from tho first situation ho had applied for. rUE COVERED LIMES.

Their warmth is a stroig recommendation. They are slipped on after the manner of overshoes; bat they are as loig as ordia ary legjrius. There was a light weight maidea in a street car with me. I don't sippose she could have balanced a scale ii the hundred pound notch, clothes and all, and you are requested to keep her lack of poaderance in Mind, in view of what I am going to tell. She sat on one of her calyes, after the manner common to her sex, and the tip of her fur shoe was jiist visible beyond the drapary on the seat. The man who sat next may not havo been Mr. Slujrger Sullivan I have net the pleasure of knowing him by sight but he certainly was big and brawny as that illustrious Bostonian. By sad mischance he wore gloves of a eolor like the shoes of my companion, lie dropped one of them as be rose to quit the car. His eyes fell on the shoe. Ths conductor had stopped the vehicle, and was waiting impatiently for the burly passenger to get out; it was no time for nnnecessary delay. The fellow grabbed the girl's feot. That member was so small, I suppose, that he didn't feel inside of what he supposed was his glove on which she had sat. "Excuse me.".he said. Then he yanked. The power of his jerk was immense. The resistance was com paratively slight. A section of fur col ered limb was hauled into sight. For an instant theie was the spectacle of the poor girl lying flat on the seat, with one toe pointed to the roof by the relent less hand of the athlete. Then things explained themselves. Tbe man darted out of the car as though escaping for dear life from a mob of enraged belles, and the outrageously maltreated girl re lumed the pose of propriety, with demure self-control although ber cheeks were hot eaoigh te light matches by.
