Alas alas!' "You know, Ilitty, it mL'ht have been diiVeu-nt," suggested Liddy, her eyes wandering toward the old-fashioned square mansion crooning the hill with insight, with its frmge of elms and its spicy" or chards beyond, ''You might have had enough and to spare, Ilitty—enough to keep Tom out of temptation." "And it c™ a temptation to poor Tom, no doubt," returned ilitty ignoring the allusion, "seeing so much money lying idle, and such a chance for doubling it otrt5r, as he fondly believed •v."Pshaw! A Thome had no business to be tempted.

Oh, Hitt5, if only you hadn't been so headstrong about Searle, all this would have been spared us?" "Don't speak of it. Liddy it hints me still. How could I know what would be best?" and Miss Ilitty, pac'nsr the loDg room with head bent, paused at the ease ment, an 1 saw the sunset reddening upon Searle Hill, and touching the window panes into jewelry. The twenty years of happiness wnich might have f.ifle'u to her share up yonder had proved twenty years of c-ilent endurance merely. She hadand watched the seasons as thev "passed over the- hill with nn interest which she had hoped would die, but which had enly Strengthened with the years—the lovely 'dallying of the spring time, the summer's overflow of bloom, the splendor that autumn wears, the white magnificence borrowed from winter. If, twenty veais ago, Ilitty had loved Anson Searle well enough to die for him, if need be, she had loved little Tom well -enough to renounce happiness and chil dren and loyo for his sake, and to live on throug the birren, hopeless days withoi, a murmer. Tom had come to" her arms a forlorn and helpless two-year-old ba by, without father or mother, when .Hitty was eighteen, and her love had grown with her growth and strengthened with her strength. Toms mother had eloped with her music-master, and had broken her father's heart and when the old gentleman died, he had left a re spectable fortune, the interest for the benefit of his two living daughters, the principal falling to their children and _.only in case Liddy and Ilitty died with ont lc.av.ing direct heirs could anything Ipor than the merest triile revert to •kpcfcrSlrftlc Tom. Ilitty had been engaged Jjo Anson^ Searle, a year when old Mr. Thorn shuffled off the mortal coil and this unjust will came to light, and Searle himself was at that time only a youn" lawyer wrestling with circumstance?. with no- great amount of funds at his command. And nothing for little Tom but this paltry hundred dollars!" groaned Ilitty, when tho will had been read and thetoo estate administered. _" Of course I shall never marry, said Liddy, who was plain nnd cld-lookiag for Uw ye»r«, and whose love had jilted her years ftgo when the bloom of'youth, at least, had been hers. There wasn't the smallest danger that Liddy would threat en Tom's interests by marrying. P.

"You Have Anson to think of, Hitty, in this affair, as well as Tom. If you don't love Tom better—" "I don't—I don't: but the will has made it impossible for me to marry Anson with a clear conscience—to marry him and be happy. If he were sure of earning a for tune,*with which we could make amends to little Tom, it would be different. But I cannot count upon such an improbable contingency. As you say, Tom will have his head and hands to push his way, but the best head and the busiest hands do not always compel fortune and, if any harm should come to bin. from want oi capital, if be thould be tempted to sin from lack of moncy,I—I should have to answer for it it would be my guilt." "Nonsense, Hitty your conscience is too tender. Harry Anson and trust to Fate, that's vy advice.

Perhaps they would share with Tom.'- Ah, it wouldn't be quite safe to trust to that pleasant 'perhaps.' I shall rot have wronged him." But you will have wronged Anson." Not if if he marries—another." Many would, perhaps, approve Ilitty Thome's conduct at this criis, more would condemn but she walked accord ing to her light in those cruel days. It was no easy task ?he had set herself. She was to receive no meed for her sacrifice, except self-approval—nothhijf but re proaches. Could she have seen all that would happen, she might have soared herself this cruelty. And how much can happen in this time! how much to make our visest forethoughts assume the aspect of improvidences! Property changes hands values shrink, children giow up with wills of their own, people die and in ike room for emote heirs, or they out live the sharp edge of soirow and ang r. and kain to bear the burden cf their mistakes. Jliss Ilitty ha I lade in the mean time, while Anson Searle wotv h:.-, ears like garlands. The fortune ot which her not impossible" children might have robbed little Tom had dwind led to the merest pittance through the. knavery of the man to whose wisdom it had bet intrusted, while Anson Searle had unexpectedly stepped into the pos session of the Searle estate, with its old stone mansion, its orchards and outlyind meadow-lands, and the income that had been rolling up since the Searles first set foot on PIj mouth Koek. Twenty years before there had bteu no shadow of such a possibility, no dream of it in Anson's mind or another's. Two healthy lives had barred the way agauibt him, but Death had effected a bieach. "What a mistake nitty Thornc had made!" people had commented these h.i.t' dozen years' '-She might have been mistnss at Scatle Hill if she'd had a tiiiud to risk mainin a poor man. Folks get their come-up once in this worM sometimes, with the u»ual charitj commentators bestow upon the motives of others. No Lo ly 1 ad known the true cause of Kitty's refusal to marry S»o.i.i k* had been thctown talk to be sure—at riddle which noone had -olved. She ha uot even confided her reasons to her lover. He would ovcr-iulo tl.un, the feaicd, would call them absurd, and only lii.tke her task mote difficult, and perhaps grow to hate little Tom—and «ouic time Tom might need his good-will who could teli? Anson Searle had not borne his dismissal with the fortitude of an early martyr. but he had sworn he would never ask her twice to marry him, and he had kept his word. But perhaps after his anger cooled, and he watched her saddening year by year, some surmise that her be havior had not been dictated by caprice or any petty motive grew upon him, and obliged him to render her the tardy jus tice of appreciation. And a pretty return Tom had mw her—speculating with his employe /. money, and threatening the family pride with disgrace. Unless five thousand dol lars were forth-coming, there was only a fortnight between him and ruin. And Tom was only twenty-two. They must save him. Miss Hitty was one to stand by her guns where there w.13 a will there was a way, and she followed the only way she kne-y. Mr. Searle, fumbiing about for the ieasons of Kitty's conduct toward himself, had at lenhth stumbled upon the clew—having an intimate knowledge of her father's will alicady— and if he had not been quite hemic enough to lorgive her for preferring Tom's well fare to his own, he must have found a urim satisfaction, in the turn that fate had ordered, in seeing the Thornc property shrinking day by" day, till thcie win hardly enough to'bu-tor their bread—till it was plain that Kitty's sacrifice had been for naught. But when did ever sacrifice prove futile? Tii.-ujii it fail of its direct purpose, does it not enrich the soul not only of the one who sacrifices, but of all beholders? It was near twilight of an autumn dav that Miss Hitty put on her woin bonne't went slowly, with a certain reluctance up the hill toward the Searle mansion she pulled the brpzen knocker timidly, and stepped into the house that misfit have been her own like any beggar. The dead Searles looked down from the walls of the oaken hall with cold questionings in their pursuing eyes in the great draw ing-room the wood fire snapped with a good will, and glinted gayly upon bronze and ormolu, upon the quaint mirrors set in garnets, upon the yellow ivory keys of the old piano. Anson Searle io- to re ceive his guest with a flush of surprise. "Js it—you—Hitty?" he cried. "You?" "Yes. You did not expect me?" "Expect you! No. No. Have I had reason to expect you?" "We sometimes expect without a reas on. I have come—cxpectinir you to grant me a favor." "A favor?" "Yes. It strikes you oddly that I should be brought to beg a fav#r of you does it not But there is no other triend upon whom I can make even so shadowy a claim as upon you. Do vou think I would ask any thing of one whom I have served so—so ill— if I were not in extrem ity "I hope you will ask anything of me. Miss Hitty, anything you wai t." "I have become mercenary, Mr. Searle. I want money. Liddy and I have made up our minds to mortgage the place we must have five thossand dollars without delay the place is not worth so much, I know, but I, I thought perhaps you would take it for security, as far as it would go and then, Liddy and I are not old to work and earn money nnd th-re's Tom and we would all strive to make it up to you, sooner or later, inter est and principal. I am dreadfully un businesslike, perhaps but what can I dot And I must have the money. I can't live, I can't die, without it. Do I make it ciear?" "You make it clear that the Thorn» fortune has all leaked away. am glad of it. Pardon, but I hold a grudge against that same property it has cheat ed me out of twenty years" of happiness. Yes Miss Hitty, you shall have the mon ey. I have plenty I am rich in every thing but the one thing I coveted. But I can not take the mortgage you shall have the money and welcome, but I can't accept a mortgage on the old place, Miss Hitty it is too sacred to me. Think of mortgaging the old apple-trees where wc swung in the hammock together,of bring ing the garden where we dreamed in the summer evenings into a business tran saction But all the same you shall have the money, Miss Hilty—" But, oh! you know I can not take the money unices—unless—" "Unless you take the owner with it Was that what you meant to say? I'm sure it wasn't but, for Heaven's sake s*y it, Hitty. Don't you kno.v I vowed never to ask yon to marry me twice? Do you want me to break my word, eh? ISow it is your turn to do the asking." I should think 1' had asked enough," said Hitty, the great tears standing in her eyes. You are not in earnest, Anson Searle. You don't want to marry me. an old maid like me! See how failed and gray I am." "And if I swear I do wvnt to marry you, what will you say?" I shall say, then, Why don't you do so, Mr. Searle?" She smiled through her tears. What will Liddy say when she hears that I've asked you to marry me?" She will say you have done your duty like a man!'' "Well, Miss Ilitty Thorn always had an eye to the main chance," said her neighbors. "Sh jilted Searle -when he was poor, and now he is rich, she mar ries him. What a fool a woman can make of a sensible man—only it usually takes a young one!" THE .UVSTEI'HRS MARltlAGE. A. Strange Story of the Eighteenth Century. One night in the eaily.part of the eighteenth century the old aad respected pastor of the village of Ncrwig, in Zea land, sat in his solitary chamber, lost in devotional meditation. The hour was near midnight. His house was situated at the furthest extremity of the village, and the simple inhabitants knew so little of mistrust or dishonesty, that bolts acd locks were like strangers to them, and every door remained either opened or without fastening. Tho pastor's lamp burned dim, the solemn stillness ot the hour was only in tciruptcd by tho murmuring of the w.ivc-, aud the pale moonbeams were re flected on the surface ol the ocean, when he suddenly heard his house door open, and heavy steps ascend his stairs, hnd he naturally expected a call to the sick-bed ot some of his parishioners to afford the last spiritual consolations, when two strange men entered his apaitmerit, their faces concealed in large white cloaks. One of them advanced, and said to him very courteously Reverend sir, be good enough (o fol low us immediately. We want you to pei form a marriage ceremony, find the bridal pair abeady await you in the church. This sum," continued he, taking a purse in his breast, will reward you for your trouble and for disturbing you at this unseasonable hour.1' Silent and frightened the old man garded his visitors, who seemed to him to have something strange and even un tirthly in their appearance. Tho stian ger repeated his invitation in a command ing and threatening tone. When the old man had recovered himself a little, be began in a mild manner to remonstrate, and toid him that his sacred office did now id low him to pertorm the solemn ceremony of marriage without knowledge of the individuals themselves, and com plying with such other formalities as the law directed. l.everend sir," said the other man. stepping forward in a threatening man lier,," vou have the choice to follow us and take the sum of money offered to you, cr rem dn here with a pistol bullet iu your brjin.'" With that be held a pi«tol to the old man's head, and awaited his answer. The old pastor grew pale, rose up silent and trembling, an! hastily clothing himeif iu his rob^s, said, I am ready, gentlemen." At last, as well as he could judge, the throng was thrust aside. They looked the bandage ftom his eyes, anil he recognized by his side one of his former companions and found himself staneling before tie altar, which was lit up by a row of wax lights, burning in splendid silver candle sticks, and the church itself was so com pletely iiluminateil by numerous lights, that the most distant object could be plainly duceraed and as, when he was tin list blindfolded amid the crowd, the noise had terrified him, so now his soul was struck with astonishment and liorror at the eleatl silence that prevaileel. Although the side aisles and benches ot the church were densely crowded, yet the centre aisle was quite empty, anci the pastor perceived opened in it" a newly made grave. The stone which had cov ered it wa3 placed leaning against one of the pews. The pastor saw none around him but men, but he thought he couid distinguish one female form in one of the most distant pews. The stillness lasted some minutes without anyj one attempting to break it, just as in the hu man soul a still, gloomy brooding of the thoughts generally precedes some deed of crime. At lost a man lose up whose noble ap pearance distinguished him from the rest of the assemblage and betiayed his high rank, lie stepped quickly through the empty aisle, while the multitude silently gazed at him as his steps resounded through the church. This man was of middle height, and stoutly built, of a most proud and haughty carriage his complexion very dark raven black hair and a high aquiline nose gave a very ciiiimnading expie son to his counte nance, while long a-iel busny eyelashes ever shadoweel his small black cye3, which appeared to gleam with wild pa sions. He was dresssd in a magnificent green suit, richly embroidered with gold, and on his breast glittered a star. The bride who knelt near him was most carefnlly and even sumptuously attired. A dress of sky-blue satin embroidered with silver enveloped her slender form and hung in large folds of drapery over her graceful limbs. A diueiem, blazing with magnif icent diamonds, adorned her golden hair. The highest grace and beauty could be traced in her face, disfigured as it was by terror. Her bloodless features seemed immovably fixed: her pale lips appeared deathlike—her eyes half closeel—and hsr powerless arms dropped helpless on Ver half-sinking body. So she knelt, a picture of death, an indescribable tear and par alyzing horror appearing to freeze both life and consciousness into the semblance of deep sleeo. The pastor t'ncD, for the first time, perceived a hateful-looking old woman, dressed in a fantastical costume, and herbeing head covered with a red turban, who grimly and even scornfully regarded the kneeling pair. Behid the' bridegroom, a man of gigantic stature and dark, forbid ding countenance had placed himself, who, standing there immovable as a sta tue, glaiiced round him in a fixed and earnest manner. The pa3tor, paralyzed bv fright, rc mained for some time as if struck dumb, until a savage glance from the bride groom woke him from his trance. What now puzzled him was the uncertainty whether the bridal pair could understand his language. This appeared to him im probable however, composing himself, he ventured to ask the names of the bride and bridegroom. "Neander, Peodora," answered the latter, in a rough voice. The pastor now began to read the forms of tho marriage ceremony, and as his voice faltered and ^he made many blunders in the reading which the bridal pair did not seem to remark, his suspi cion was confirmed that they did not un derstand his language. But when he asked "Neander, wilt thou here take Fcodora,now kneeling beside thee,for thy wedded wife?" and ho doubted whether the bridegroom, ignorant of his language, could answer him, to his great astonish ment the latter spoke out "Yes," in an al most screaming tone, which resounded through the church. Deep sobs bursting out simultaneously from the crowd ac companied this exclamation, and a vis ible emotion, transient as the distant lightning flash, appeared to pass over the almost motionless features of the bride. The old man then turned himself, speak ing louder, to the bride, as if he wished to v/ake her from her deathlike lethargy, while he said, "Wilt thou Feodora. take that man, kneeling beside thee, for thy husband, and honor him as such? If so, answer me in the affirmative." Then the lifeless bride apeared to va en up, a deep and awful shudder appear ed to move her pale features, ner blood" less lips moved, and a quick, transient fire sparkled in her eyes, her bosom heav ed, while a plentiful flood of tears ex tinguished the momentary sparkle of her eves, and the word Yes" was heard like the last word of a dying soul, and an pearcd to find an echo in the unrepresscd cry of sorrow which simultaneously burst from a'l present. The bride sank ex hausted into the arms of the old woman behinti her, and relapsed into her former state of insensihilily,.ind so the ceremony ended. The bridegroom rose up and bore the lifeless form of the bride to her former place, anel the old woman and the gigantic man followed them. The pastor's first conductors then appeared again, and blindfolded his eyes as before, and led him, not without some trouble, through the crowd, and having pushed him rudely through the side door they bolted it on the inside, and left him standing alone in the churchyaid re-wildered The strangers had spoken in Danish, but with such a foieign ace nt as could not be mistaken. Tne mvstorious men went silently through the \iilage, buried as it was in slumber, and the pastor fol lowed them. It was a dark night in au tumn, and the moon had already gone down. When they approached" the chinch, the bewildered old man, with fear and astonishment, saw it brilliantly lighted up, and his comnauious hastened across the low sandy flats which interven ed between it and the village, still con cealed in their white mantlu-°, while, with his li.ibs palsied with age anil fright, he with difficulty strove to keep up with them. When they reached the church they H'lid-folded his eyes. Tho (to tlu pastor) well known side door opened at their approach, glaring on its hinges, aud he found himself then thrust forward into the chuic'i, which appeared filled with a great multitude. All around him he heard a muttering nnel sound of many voices in a tongue unknown to him, but which he riipposeel to bo Uussiin. And as he stood amid the multitude with hlindfo'ded eyes, puz/Ied, and not know ing what was about to happen, he f.-It his hand seized, and was pulled with considuiable violence through the crowd. Here lie remained for some time be anel confused, uncertain wheth er all he hael just witnessed was not a dream. But when he had torn the band age oil" his eyes, and he saw the church before him still lighted up, and heard the noise of the people within it con tinue^, he felt convinced of the realty of the mysterious event he had been an act or in. In order to obseivc as much as possible the conclusion of the strange scene, he conccaletl himself in the corner of the porch, and anxiously listened, as every moment the noise within became louder and louder. I seemed as if a warm strife had arisen he thought he could distinguish tne rough voice of the bridegroom, who loudly commanded silence. Then followed a long pause, which was succeeded by the piercing scream of a female voice. After that an other silence, and then a voice of loud lamentations, which lasted nearly a quarter of an hour. The lights were then suddenly extinguished, the confused nfise of the crowel was again heard, aad the whole multitude came streaming out of the church, anei hastened noisly down to the seashore. Alter a little while the pastor crept out of his hiding plac: and hastened to the village. He then awoke his iriends and neigiiboi", and still laboring under the effect of his fright, related to them all that had occurred. But so peaceful, still, aud monotonous was the usual couise ef cvfnts in the community, that an alarm of quite a different nature seiz-d on them. They believed their respecteel pastor had lost his senses, and it was not without some trouble that he pe-suaded some of them to accompany him with pick axes and shovels, and lollow him to the church. In the meantime the night had passd a-vay anel the sun had appeared anel as the pastor and his companions were as cending the hill em which the church s*ood. they saw a ship in full sail leave the shore and steer a northerly d'rcciion. Such an nsusual sight in such a solitary neighborhood made them a litlle more inclined to credit the old man's story .and it was coufirmed when they found the church door had been forcibly broken open. Full of curiosity, they entered the church, and the pastor poiuted out to them the grave which he had seen open during the night. It was easily perceived that the stone had been lately displaced, and the tools they hid brought with them soon enabled them again to remove it, and in the opened grave was fonnd a new/and richly decorated coffin. With almost youthful impatience the old man descended into the grave--others followed him—and the pastor soon found his horrible fobodings confirmed. In the coffin lay the iorm of the murdered bride. The magnificent diadem was gone, and a pistol bullet had apparently been discharged through her heart. The traces of grief and horror were vanished from her features, which now woie a placid smile of almost heavenly expression, and she lay there like an angel. The old man threw himself down weeping beside the coffin, and deep won der, horror, and astonishment seized all the beholders. The pastor found himself in duty com pelled to report this strange occurrence to the Bishop of Zealand, and before he went for the purpose to Copenhagen, he requested his parishioners on no account to mention what had occurred, The grave was again covered up, and no one ventured again to speak of the matter. A short time afterward a man of high rank arrived at the village from the seat of government, desired them to show him the grave, and commended the pastor's prudence in preserving silence about the matter lie ordered the whole affair to be kept as private as possible, and threat ened any one who dared to speak on the subject with the highest displeasure of the authorities. Alter the death of the pastor, among his papers was found a detailed account of the transaction attached to the church records. Some believed that it was in some way connected with events which occurred in Russia in the period between the death of Peter the Great and that of the Empress Catherine. It is hard, and indeed impossible, to satisfactorily ex plain this dajjk and mysterious occur rence but the very rough anel brutal manners of the Russian nobility of the highest rank, and even of the imperial family of that period, render it probable that some of them were concerned in this tragedy, of which the victim is sup posed to have been a princess of Cotir land, and the principal actor a gran Ison of Peter the Great. The Ornaha Republican tells this story of a horse: "Old Jack," one of the horses that hauled No. 3 engine for months, was purchased thirty months ago by Carl Woodworth, who has worked him on an express wagon since then. On Saturday week, one of No. 3*s horses under the weather, old Jack was borrowed from Mr. Woodworth for the time being. When the fire-alarm sounded .hat night, although old Jack hadn't been 'n fire service for two and one-half years, he went from the stable at the tap of the bell to his position at the pole ot the engine, and when the team returned to the house and the horses were detached from the engine, he proceeded directly to his stall." HOUSE, FARM, GARDEN. Ralraror the G*vernm«nt of Children. First—Never give in to disobedience, and never threaten what you are not pre pared to carry out. Second—Never lose your temper. I do not say never be an gry. Anger is sometimes indispensable, especially where there has been anything mean, dishonest or cruel. But anger is very different from loss ot temper. Third —Of all things never sneer at them, and be careful even how yon rally them. Fourth—Do not try to work on their feelings. Fifth—never show that jo doubt except you are able to convict. To doubt an honest child is to do all youLeap can to make a liar of him and to believe a liar, if he is not altogether shameless, is to shame him. Sixth—Instill no relig ious doctrine apart from its duty. If it have no duty as its necessary embodiment the doctrine may well be regarded as doubtful. Seventh—Do not be hard on mere quarreling, which like a storm is often helpful in clearing the moral at mosphere. Stop it by a judgment between the parties. But bo severe as to kind of quarreling, and the temper shown in it. Especially give no quarter to any unfair ness arising from greed or spite. Use your strongest language with regard to that. ffalky I once heard of an unfortunate gentle man who hael become insane, but was re stored to sound health simply by causing the mind to make a sudden revulsion, which was done by skillfully causing him to become jealous of his wife, who was a most excellent lady and aware of the process. On this hiut we might learn to manage a balky horse. He is insane on the subject of going, that is self-evident. If wc can manage to make him think on soma other subject he will naturally for get about going and go before Le knows it. The following devices have been successfully tried to. accomplish the de sired enel: First. Tying a string arounel the horse's ear close to the head. Second. Hitching the horse to the singletree by means of a corel instead of the tugs, the cord fastened to the horse's tail. Third. Filling the mouth full of some disagree able substance. Fourth. Tying a stout twine around the leg. just below the knee and then removing it when he has trav eled some distance. Never whip a balky horse, for the more he is whipped the crazier he will become.

Dimon in Independent. Earls* IManta, The best melons we saw last year were growing in a poor man's garden a hun drcel miles north of New York. The seeds were started early in the spring in spuares of rich roadside sod, 4x4 inches and two inches thick, inverted, place on a tray near a suuny window and on an out side bench dining waim days watched from time lo time, and finally set, "sods and all," in the open ground when the season was advanced beyond any proba bility of chilly nights. Others planted alongside of them, and earlier, eliiectly in the garden, hardly saw the light be fore they were devoured by the striped bug—the sadest of the year. The same plan is of course available for any vegeta ble vhose groth it is desirable to hasten. For instance, a few tomato seeds may thus be planted in sods or in small paper boxes filled with fine rich soil, ana pro duce a crop a month earlier than usual. The boxes, if of not too firm material, may be transferred at the proper time to the place'prepared for them in the gar den, without disturbing them, as the roots will foice themselves through the soften ed paper er the box mi be carefully scissored away so as not to loosen the soil from the roots, which is a great point gained in transplanting. If small pots are available, these answer an excellent purpose, and if the growing plant is re ported once or twice into a larger pot, as its groth demands more room, all the bet ter. These hints are, of aurse, for those who, for one reason or another, haven't the advantage of a hot-bed, that excellent help in a garden.—JV. Y. Tribune. According to the Golden Mule, lew pe^^ple know the value of sweet apples as food. It says: Baked and served with cream, they make a light and most delicious dessert. Sliced, and used in puddings of various sorts, they save other sweetening, and give a grateful elemeit of freshness to the dish. And this sug gests that one reason why baked apples ot any kind fall into disfavor in many families is because they are not fresh. A tinful or two is baked up to "save tim","' and they come upon the table more and more dead and dilapidated, shrunken and slippery, until the very sight of them discourages and sickens the family. A baked apple over one dayConcord, old is passed its prime and an apple like an egg, that has seen better days," we don't want to exercise our charity on! But it is in putting the finishing toach on a bowl of bread anel milk that baked sweet apples find their highest mission. Given milk that is pure and fresh bread that is both foreordained and perfected in grace for such a use, which means home-made, milk-rising bread, a little stale, but light, moist and sweet, and plate of apples just done tbrough,aud only long enough out of the oven to have lost their heat without getting really cold, and you have a lunch fit for a king too good, indeed for most of" the men who are in "the king busi ness." This dish lias the three elements of nutriment found in bread, milk and fruit and if there is anything better than this combination, the fact hasu't leaked out, either through science cr ex perience. One meal a day of bread anel milk anel sweet apples, for children and people of sedentary habits, would be better t!nn the food which costs much more than i-iahy of them now in dulge in. A pinch of salt or a spoonful of lime water will prevent the unpleas ant effect which milk has on some stom achs. No keen appetite is required to give relish to such a lunch, and no diges tion that is good for anything has anywell-tried trouble with it after it is eaten. I really think all the heroines do notworthless have their names written in history mauy, many, are daily walking through humble streets and dark lanes, arrayed in calico dress, toiling tor loved ernes without a murmur and without applause, fighting a great fight, on unseen batlefields, con- querors, wearing no laurel wreaths, every day renewing the fight never given up, until suddenly they encounter the Great Foe in, whose presence the stannchest warriors take off their armor, lay down their arms, and crjr "Vale!

When a Fulton father came home the other evening and stepped into the par lor to fill up the coal stove, he was star tled to see, wdien the flame of his hand lamp dissipated the darkness, that his daughter and her ducky doodle Adolphus were sojourning in the shadow of the lowered gas jet. But they were in sepa rate chairs! And were engrossed in a box ot figs! He felt compelled to ask: Something the matter with the gas?" And the time-tried youth, grasping one of the golden thoughts that over whelm us in the time of emergency, answered, as he jnechanically picked up another fig: "No sir we turned it down so as not to notice when we bit into a worm!" Ftvm the Danbnrjr New?." When the patent went into the parlor to look for his newsj.aper he came sud denly upon his daughter and her young man with their faces so tightly glued to each other that thoy didn't note his en try. "Ahem?" he observed. The twain started, and came to the light with faces that bore every appear ance of having been just drawn out of a furnace "Anything the matter?" grimly asked the old gentleman. I think we must have fainted," said she, in whisper. "Humph 'Wha made you faint?" he inquired, suspiciously. This was such a poser that idie sank back exhausted, leaving her companion to carry them salely forth. With an awful wrench at his faculties he gulped out— I think there must ba poison in the wall-paper." The old gentleman collapsed. Berlin has a population ot 804,000 Prot estants, for whom there are but .14 churches and 93 ministers—that is one shepard to a flock of 8,4C3 sheep. Tlio Art of Prolonging Life. People generally desire long life nnd good health. Sickness nnd prcmatuie death are almost always due to violation of the laws that govern our physical bcinir, and of which the masses are ignorant. If men knew bettor they would do better but how can thev avoid ant\ilti,at they kuo« not of? While"cflbitr. are being made through the public schools to give each child a so-called lomuion Erglish education, yet the children are pcunitted to grow up and enter upon the responsible du ties of active lire, profoundly ignorant of the stiucture or their own bodies, and the lav of physical being upon which their health and live* depend. They are sent to school, crammed with arithmetic, grammar, and geography, by teachers who, in many in stances, have ne\er studied physiology and hygiene. They are taught to locate the moun tains and trace the rivers offoreigncountiies, and are never taught to locate the vital organs glands of their own bodies or trace the veins aiteries, and nerves, in their various ramifica tions. They are instructed in the flow of tides and the coiire of the ocean cut rents, and the philo-opliy of winds ami storms but thev have no correct conception of the relative effects upon their health of breathing pure or impure air, nor has their attention ever been called to the importance of keeping their bodies clean and healthy by icgular bathing. Tho criminality of such neglect iu teaching becomes apparent when we consider that the masses ignorantlv violating the law* of health, b-mg upon themselves sickness,stifl'ering, and death that might otherwise be avoided. Into tli's condition of things we welcomeintobeinir any work that is calculated to impart to the nias^eb a knowledge of the structurs of their own bodies, the laws of health, and the import ance of observing those laws.
