MISCELLANY.
PETER AND IIIS WIFE.
Prom the Norwegian.
Peter tlie Greybeard was self-willed, impe
rious, passionate, and had no more patience
than a dog when you snatch away his hone, or
a cat when you are,-trying to strangle her. lie
would have been insufferable bad not Heaven,
in its mercy given him a wife who was a match
for him. She was headstrong, quarrelsome,
■discontented, morose, always ready to scream
Wt the top of her voice the moment lie opened
bis mouth.
It was a great fortune for Peter to have such
a spouse. Without her, would lie ever have
known that patience is not the merit of fool-?
One day, in the mowing season, when he
came Wouir after llfteeu hours of hard work, in
a Worse humor than usual, and was swearing,
cursing, and execrating all Women and their
laziness, because bis soup was not yet ready
for him, his wife cxel timed:
“ Good heavens! Peter, you talk away at
a tine rate. Would you like to change place,?
To-morrow l will mow instead of you, and
yon slay at home and play liousekeper. Then,
we ll see Which of us will have tlie hardest task
and come out ol it best.”
“Agreed!” thundered Peter. “Ton'll have
a chance to find out, once for all. what a poor
husband has to suffer. The trial will teach you
H lesson of respect—something you greatly
need.”
So tlie next morning, at daybreak, tlie wife
set out for tlie Held, witli the rake over her
shoulder and tiie sickle by her side, all joyous
at the sight of the bright suiishiue, and singing
like a lark.
Now, «ho felt not a little surprised and a
little foolish, too, to find himself shut up at
home? Our friend, Peter the Greybeard.
Still lie wasn’t going to own himself beaten,
but fell to work churning butter as though lie
had never done anything else all the days of
his life.
It's no hard matter to get overheated when
one takes on a new trade, and Peter, soon feel
ing very thirsty, went down into the cellar to
dr aw a mug of beer from the cask. He Imd
just kuocked out the bung and was applying
the spigot, when he heard an ominous crunch
ing and grunting overhead. It was the sow,
devastating tlie kitchen.
“Oh, heavens! my butter’s lost! yelled Pe
ter the Greylieard, as he rushed pell-mell up
the steps, with spigot in his hand. What a
spectacle was there! the churn upset, tile
cream spilt all over the floor,and the huge sow
fairly wallowing in the rich and savory tide.
Now, even a wiser man would liavu lost all
patience. As tor Peter, lie rtndied upon tlie
brute, who, with piercing screams, strove to
escape; out u was a napless uay to me uiiel,
for her master caught her in the doorway and
dealt tier so well applied and vigorous a blow
on the skull w ith the spigot that the sow fell
dead on the spot.
As he drew back his novel weapon, now cov
ered with blood, Peter remembered that he had
not closetl the bong-hole of the cask, and that
all this time his beer was running to waste,
So down he rushed again to the cellar. For
tunately, the beer had ceased to run, but then
that was because not a drop remained iu the
cask.
He had now to begin his morning’s work
again, and churn some more butter if he ex
pected to see any dinner that day. So Peter
visited the dairy-house, and there found cream
to replace what lie had just lost. At it he goes
again, and churns more vigorously than ever.
But in the midst of his churning, lie remem
bers—a little late, to be sure, but better late
than never—that the cow was still iu the sta
ble, and that site neither had food nor water,
although the sun now was high above the ho
rizon. Away lie runs, then, to the stable. But
experience has made him wise.
“ I've my little child there rolling on the
floor. Now if I leave the churn, the greedy
scamp may turn it over, and something worse
might easily happen in my absence!”
Whereupon lie takes up tile churn on his
back, and hastens to the well to draw- water
for the cow. The well was deep.and the buck
et did not go down far enough, so Peter leans
with all his might upon the rope, and away
goes the ci earn out of the churn, over his head
and shoulders, into the well.
“Confound it!” said Peter, between his
teeth, "it's clear I'm to have no butter to-day.
Let's attend to tbe cow; it’s too late to take
her out to pasture, but there is a tine lot of
hay on the house-thateh that has ''t been cut,
aud she’ll lose nothing by staying at home.”
To get the cow out of the stable and put her
on the house-roof was no great trouble, for the
dwelling was set ill the hollow on the hillside,
so that the thatch was almost on a level with
the ground. A plank served the purpose ol a
bridge, and behold the cow comfortably in
stalled iu her elevated pasture. Peter, of
course, could not temain upon the roof to
watch the animal; he had to make a mid-day
porridge and take it to the mowers. But he
was a prudent man, and did not want to leave
his cow exposed to the risk of breaking her
bones; so he tied a small tope around her
neck, and this rope he passed carefully down
tile chimney of the cottage into the littie kitch
en below. Having effected this, lie descended
himself, and entering the kitchen.attached the
other end of the rope to his own leg.
“In this way,” said he, “I make sure that
the cow will keep quiet, aud that nothing bad
will happen to her.”
He now filled the kittle, dropped into it*a
good lump of lard, the necessary vegetables
and condiments, placed it on the well-piled
fcggots, struck fire with flint and steel, and
was applying the match to the wood, blowing
it well the while, when, all at once, crash—
crash! away goes the cow, slipping down off
tile roof, and dragging our good man, with one
Jeg in the air and head downward, clear up
the chimney.
What would have become of him, no one
can tell, had not a thick bar of iron arrested
his upward course. And now, there they are,
both dangling in the air, the cow outside and
Peter within; both, too, uttering the most
frightful cries of distress.
As good luck would have it, the wife was
just as Impatient as her husband, aud after
waiting just three seconds to see whether Pe
ter would bring the porridge at the stated
time, she started off for the house as though it
Were on fire. When she saw the row -u
ing between heaven and earth, she drew her
tickle and cut the rope, greatly to the delight
of the poor brute,who now found herself again
on the only sort of floor she liked.
It was a change no less fortunate for Peter,
who was uot accustomed to gazing at the sky
with his leet in the air. But he fell smack in
to the kettle, head foremost. It had been de
creed, however.that all should come out right
with him that day; the Are had died out, the
water was cold, and the kittle awry.so that he
got off with nothing worse than a scratched
forehead, a peeled nose, and two well-scraped
cheeks; and, thank heaven! nothing was bro
keu but the sauce-pan.
WUeu his better half entered the kitchen,
she found Master Graybeard looking very
sheepish and bloody.
“Well! well!” said she, planting her arms
akimbo, and her two lists on ber hips; “who is
the best housekeeper, pray ? I have mowed
and reaped, and here I am as good as I was
yesterday, while you, you. Mr. Cook,Mr. Stay
at-home, Mr. Nurse—where’s the cow, and
where’s our dinner? If our little one's alive
yet, no thanks to you. Poor little fellow!
What would become of it without kind and
careful mamma?”
Whereupon Mrs. Peter began to weep and
sob. Indeed, she had need to; for is not sen
sibility woman’s Held of triumph, and are not
her tears the triumph of sensibility?
Peter bore the .storm in silence, and did
well; for resignation is the virtue of great
souls.
