After All.
Grief is strong, but joy is stronger;
Night is loug, but day is longer.
When life's riddle solves and clears,
And the angels in our ears
Whisper the sweet answer low
(Answer full of love ana blessing).
How our wonderment will grow
At the blindness of our guessing;
All the hard things we recall
Made so easy?after all!
Earth is sweet, but heaven is sweeter:
Love complete, but faith completer,
Close beside our wandering ways.
Through dark nights and weary days,
Stand the angels with bright eyes;
& w. l\ i /\ r V* f.

Falls upon and sanctifies
All our pain and all our loss.
Though we stumble, though we fall,
God is helping?after all!
Sigh then, soul, but sing and sighing
To the happier things replying;
Dry the tears that dim thy seeing.
Give glad thoughts for life and being;
Time is but the little entry
To eternity's large dwelling,
And the heavenly guards keep sentry,
Urging, guiding, half-compelling,
Till the puzzling way quite past,
Thon shall enter In?at last!
Horace Grccly.
Horace was a feeble, sickly cliild, often
under medical treatment. His
mother was particularly tender of him,
and he was kept close to her side.
From the spelling-book on her knee
he learned to read, as well as to be entertained,
before he could fairly talk,
and at an earlier period than he could
remember in his later years. By a
singular adaption to the changes of
motion on his mother's part while spinning,
he acquired the unwonted facility
of reading with the book in almost
any position, siaewise or upsidedown,
as readily as in the usual fashion, without
at that time thinking it anything
unusual.
The first book which he read conse1
cutively through was the Bible, under
the guidance of his mother, when he
was about five years old.
By his eleventh year lie had read
Shakespere, and by his fourteenth had
read the principal histories and poets
accessible.
While only in his fith or sixth year
[ Horace was told by a blacksmith, who
; observed the interest with which the
child gazed at his work at the forge,
i that he had better come and learn the
trade with him. The response was instant
and decided: "No, I'm going to
* be a printer."
Wnpn nnlv ploven vpara r?lrl hp nn
dertook to realize his dream. Hearing
that an apprentice was wanted in a
newspaper office about five miles away,
he applied for it in person. He was
(he says "properly")rejected on account
of his youth, but it was a sore
dissapointment.
Rev. Hugh Price Hughes was one
of the prominent figures at the recent
Methodist Ecumenical. As is well
known, he is one of the great London
Ereacbers. While he was over hero
e went on a lecturing tour. He
tells the following himself:
"The committees who had undertaken
the arrangement of his
itineracy were inclined to make the
mo3t of his Academical degree, and
whithersoever he went the full title
'The Rev. Hugh Price Hughes, M.
A.," flaunted on chapel doors and
gave an air of dignity to small bills
circulated among the congregations.
One day it fell to the lot of a deacon
f in a rustic parish to announce the ap'
proach of the clelebrated London
Hivine. 'On Sabbath next.' he said.
carefully scanning the written announcement
with which he had been
provided, 'the Rev. Hu^li Price
Hughes's Ma will occupy the pulpit
in this church, and,' he added, looking
cherfully and hopefully iouikI '
the congregation, 'we have no doubt
the old lady will give us a telling discourse."
??
Enterpriw..
Sometimes the young man of enteri
prise "goes West," and sometimes he
shows his good sense by staying at .
p home.
Herbert Stevenson had a flattering
' offer to leave the inland town where
he was a clerk, and come to the metropolis
on a higher salary. It is always
flattering to a young man to be '
wanted in the great city. But Herbert
reasoned in this wise: In my na- '
tive town I am well and favorably <
known. The reputation of my father
and grand-father is a heritage that
would a\ail me comparatively little in
New York; while her in M?it is of
priceless value to me. All my relatives
and friends are bere. M? is a 1
growing place; its facilities for manu- j
facturing'purposes ar? good, and I can
make money right here in time, and
^ U1- XI _
piuuuuiy souuer tnau ill ?\ew lorK, <
where promotions are slow and where
permanent success and gray hairs ^
come together. I can live well on less
0 money in M? than I can in New
, York, and when my new venture in
manufacturing, which I am planning
for, is an assured success, I can live
in New York or anywhere else that _
I choose. J
A great deal of what some young
men delude themselves in thinking }
enterprise is mere restlessness, and
and they go from place to place like a
rolling stone, and though they may 'j
be rounded and polished by attrition,
they gather no moss.
"Let well enough alone" is a good ,
motto to consider when changes of-i
radical order are proposed. There is
no gain without some loss, but it is '
well to balance the loss and gain be
fore taking steps that cannot be re- ]
traded.
(
The Meanest Man.
Bill Nye put it exactly right when J
he said : A man may use a wart on
the back of his neck for a collar button,
ride on the back coach to save the
interest on his money untiV the conductor
gets around, stop Ins watch at 7j
night to save wear and tear,- leave i's
and t's without a dot and. cross to save i
ins; pasture ms mother's grave to J
save corn?but a man of his sort is a
gentleman and a scholar compared
with the fellow that lakes a newspaper ,
two or three years and when he is ask- J
ed to pay for it, puts it back bi the
office and has it maiked "refused"
. When a man wants his paper slopped
he ought to pay up and inform the
editor that his paper is no longer
Ip1 wanted. !

Household Kcoiuwuy. t
Besides the purchase, care anil preparation
of food one must remember
that there aer a hundred other ways of
economizing in the household. Time [p

farinu boiler is a necessity as there is I'V
no danger of scorching and wasting
food. A meat chopper and braising ;3;
pan enable one to use the cheaper ;
pieces of meat. There are many other
machines which are of great use +
in intelligent hands but as women aie f
