TfIf THREE WOOERS. Theiim come wooing w ith silvery word, And a tender look in his honest eyes, And the maiden listened with And sur prise, ’iwas the swet.-test. s mg she had ever heard; And her answer was: ‘‘O lover mine, 1 t ike th> love, and thy love i- mine.7’ The second came to the woman blest With the tirst sweet love of her maiden yen rs. And the mother gazed thr<.' her happy tears On the little love at her glowing bi- ist: And her soul through her glade.' es seem ed to say: “I have knn a n no lov • like tin love to day.'' When came the third, with his chilling breath, And wooed, the sorrowing woman beard, With never i sigh, his somber word, Though she knew her wooer was none lmt Death; < Take i.i , <1 lb aih, whom the others he, And willingly will I go w ith thee.” Uaflieacri Treasures A good example is the best scr | at on. A jest liiven too tar brings home hate. J>o u<>* -ay for crutches lmt for ] wings. No investment pays so well as do ing good. A >1 presence is a letter of re commendation. A handful of common sense is worth a bushel of learning. Power is seldom innocent, and en vy.is the . ske-fellow of eminence. Prayer :» a shield to the soul, a sacrifice to God an 1 a scourge to Satan. I’ ! not 'or:. : that while you fold your hands.

If von want to be miserable, think * about yourself, about what you want, what you like, wlmt respect the peo ple ought to pay you, and what peo ple think of you. God hath made many sharp cut ting instruments and rough files for the polishing of his jewels; and those he especially loves and means to make most respeiidcnt he hath of tenest his tools upon. Economy is the parent of integri ty, of liberty and of ease ; and the beauteous sister of temperance, of .rfu; s :.ud health. And pro fuseness is a cruel and crafty demon, that gradually involves her followers in dependence and debt, that fetters ; them with "iron that enters their' soul.” Ooealiie, Iodoform or >Iercu i ialn in any form in the treatment of Catarrh or llav Fever should be avoid ed, as they are both injurious and dan- i gerous. Iodoform is easily detected by ! its offensive odor. The only reliable catarrh remedy on the market to-day is Ely’s Cream Balm, being free from all j poisonous drugs. It has cured thous- j ands of acute and chronic cases, where all other remedies have failed. A par ticle is applied into each nostril; no pain; agreeable to use.

Wouldn’t Work There. “I know,” said a preacher, “that a great many people swear without thinking, and some don’t believe in the Bible.” And then he went on to preach a regular sermon about swearin’, and then he quoted scripture. In the course of his lecture, he undertook to prove the scriptures to be true, and told us all about the miracles prophecies, and therr fulfillment. The old gentleman with the cane took part in the conversation, and the Hoosier listened without ever opening his mouth. “I just heard ofa gentleman what’s been to the Holy Land, and went over the Bible country. It’s aston ishing to bear what wonderful things lie lias seen. He was at Sodom and Gotnorra—seen the place where Lot’s wife fell.” “Ah,” says the old gentleman with a cane. “Yes,” says the preacher, “he went to the very spot; and what was the most remarkable thing of all, he has seen the pillar of salt what she was turned into.” “is it possible?” says the old gen tleman with the cane. “Yes, sir. he seen the salt -landing lliur to this'day.” “What,” says the Hoosier, “real, genevine, good salt?” “Yi , sir, a pillar of salt, as it was when the wicked woman was pun ished for disobedience.” All lint the gambler, who was snoozing in the corner of the coach, looked at the preacher—the Hoosier with an expression of countenance that told plainly that his mind was powerfully convicted of an impor tant fact. “Bight in the open air?” he asked, j “Yes; standing right out in an open field where she fell.” “Well, sir.” says Indiana, “all I ; got to say is, if she’d dropped in our parts, the cattle would have licked her up afore sundown.” Cusliiug’s Mauuitl at Court. A raw citizen in Idaho, says the Washington Critic, was electee! a justice of the peace, and the only la a booK lie had Wits a "Ciisliiim's Manual.” The first ease before him wax that of a cowboy for Mealing a Steer. iVbcu the case wa< called, the only lawyer in the little town was there to defend the prisoner. “As there is no counsel for the other side,” he said, “1 make amo tion that the case be dismissed.” The Justice looked over his “Man ual.” “A motion has to be seconded,” he said. “I second the motion,” promptly responded t he prisoner. “The motion has been made and seconded that the case be dismissed,” said the court. “All in favor will please say ‘aye.’ ” The prisoner and his attorney vo i ted aye. “All opposed say ‘no.’” Nobody voted. “The motion is carried, and the ease is now dismissed,” remarked the court. “A motion to adjourn is j now in order. The prisoner made the motion, | and the court adjourned. SENTIMENTS OF A L\I)Y AT ST FEL TON, PA. Stkki.ton, Pa., April 15, IsSC.

English people havo developed a decided liking for tomatoes, and as their climate is too cold for this veg etable the demand must be supplied in its canned state. Probably the ov er-production of canned tomatoes ‘ a few years since made the basis for | a more extended use of them, and thus a hotter demand in future. Gardeners ;tnd farmers who grow tomatoes will recover part of their losses again when canned tomatoes could hardly be given away it is sometimes a good thing in the end for prices of any product to go very low, as this increases the use of it by those who could not afford it be fore.
