Although Bhe lived eighty-seven years, and paw many shadowy as well as sunshiny days, her life was beautiful all through. .She accepted the Borrows as well as the joys, as sent by her best friend, and tiu'sted Him in the ditrkness a9 well asin tke light. But her greatest source of earthly happiness was the fact that her children and her grandchildren loved her bo truly and so tenderly. he never felt, as too many dear, blessed souls do, that die was other than a constant joy and comfort to them. In many ways she was a great care and burden. But they never allowed her to feel it. It was beautiful to see them all so loving in their attention to her. And now that she has come into possession of her " mansion in the skies," how pleacant to the dear ones left will be the memo ries of the happiness they gave her, through many long years, and especially the last few, when she appreciated them so thoroughly. Her husband was a prominent physi cian in ne of our smaller cities, and while he lived there were no two persons in the whole country more loved or re spected than the doctor and his kind, sunny, hospitable wife. But twenty years ago that good christian doctor, who had cared for the souls as well as the bodies of his patients, went to the " bet ter land," and the home was broken up, and the lovely, lonely mother went away to live with a dear daughter, whose husband,one of the best ministers, preached in a town not far distant. . And all these years the son and the daughters,with their children,have striv en in every way to make grandma happy She was not always left at home when a pleasant picnic, or a nice driva was pro Hsed, as too many grandmas are; but there was a place and a welcome seat for her. Her room was the sunniest, her big chair the easiest, her bed the softest of any in the house. Bbe was a great reader, a very interesting talker, and from her long and varied experience never lacked for listeners. The happiest hour of the twenty-four for the children was the one after prayers, and before bed time, when they all sat around grandma's kiiee and heard a sweet bible-story, or some bit of her own history, related in her quaint way. But, a short time ago, she began sud denly to fail, and ere many weeks had passed dear grandma's chair was vacant, and the children would whisper softly at twilight, as they missed the pleasant voice and the accustomed story, 'How strange it seems without grandma !" I want to tell you of her last birthday, which began so sweetly on earth, and whose close found her in heaven. Her daughter a few days previous to this sickness had just returned with her children from the centennial, and one morning she said to her mother : " How glad I am that we came home before the severe sickness! Did you think when you were taken sick that rerharw vou micht die when l was none?" " Yc," she replied, "I did." "How would you have felt if you bad?" asked the daughter. Her reply was: " Mary, I did think I would like to spare you the trial of see ing me die." What a lovely, unselfish mother! The day before her death, the daughter and two of her children slipped of! for awhile (leaving her husband to sit by her) to purchase some birthday presents for grandma. They bought her a pretty new cap, a necktie, a handsome new counterpane for the bed, and ordered the most tempting things for her dinner they could find in the market. Her birthday morning found her very comfortable, and, after breakfast, the new ruches were placed in her second best black silk, and her daughter dressed her to setup for awhile. Then she kised her by twen ties to the eighty-seventh time, recalling at every twenty the place where grand ma was, and the chcurnstance which at that time surrounded her, which she seemed to enjoy vey much. Afterward tl children and their father brought in the present, he. wrapping the new spread about him, putting on the cap, necktie, etc., to show them ofT and all making merry over them. But as grandma did not seem to enter into the merriment very heartily, her daughter quietly asked her: " Would you rather wear the ' white robe' above?" and with a sweet, beam ing smile on her face, she said: "Yes, 1 would!" And that evening, after a pleasant, comfortable day, talking much with her loved ones of the joys before her, of her peace, and trust and happiness, the sum mons came, and, without a struggle or a moan, she passed from earth to Heaven, and put on the " white robe" washed in the blood of the Lamb. What a beauti ful close to the chapter of lifol How few there are in this cold, heart less world who. are taking any trouble to make th aged mothers and fathers hap py and comfortable! How soon the children forget the days and months and years of constant, loving care which dear mother so unselfishly bestowed upon them, ani how thoughtless are the many little grandchildren of many little atten tions which the dear grandmas would so lovingly receive. Let us all, children and grandchildren, do whatever we can to make their lives pleasant, and their last days their best days. So may we reward them in some measure for all they have done for hs. and have the sat isfaction when they are gone of knowing that we have done something toward in creasing the number of " Happy Grand mas." Chicago Standard. TRAPPER. Bis rnerlrsM in. tke Indimn. Country Forty Year Jtgo. A. O. Boone, of Denver, Colorado, who is now in Washington, writes to the Graphic as follows, under date of Janu ary 8 : Having just returned with the commission to negotiate with the Sioux, of which I was a member, I was informed that in a late issue of your paper you pub lished a sketch of General B. L. E. Bon neville, in which some errors hare crept which I would like to correct without detracting from the well established fame of the general. The public seem to think that Bonneville and Fremont and Marcey were the first explorers of the sections of which they give such graphic descriptions, but in this they are in error, as most of the country was hunted, trapped and prospected years before they Set about their scientific ex ploration. Captain Bonneville received a furlough in 1832 and explored the west for four years. In 1825 I accompanied General W. H. A ah ley, of St. Louis, with a party of one hundred trappers, to the Rocky moun tains. Ashley took out a party of men in 1823, at which time I was among the Osages in charge of the trading outfit of Messrs. Paul Bayliss & Co., of St. Louis. He left his party near the great Salt Lake, under Jackson and Sublett, and took out our party to reinforce them. We found on Bear river that the Indians had attacked and dispersed the first party, and the survivors were scattered through the mountains. The trappers of our party, and others who were in the country, trapped all along the moun tains from the British possession into Mexico. Our principal competitors in those days were the free trappers of the British northwestern fur company, who ranged all over west of the mountains, and had taken out 3,000,000 beavers be fore Ashley's first party went to work. When Ashley returned t St. Louis in 1825 he left the party of about ninety five men camped on Bear river (now in Utah), in charge of Colonel Kobert Camp bell, now one of the wealthiest men of St. Louis. In 1825 the most western military post was Fort Osage, in Jackson county, Mo., and the wilderness stretched from there westward. The Indians in those days were armed with stone hatchets and lances, and their arrows flint-tipped. It was only amasement to fight them, and a few trappers went fearlessly anywhere. well remember one incident ef that my first trip. As we were traveling along the Platte river uplands one day We discov ered in the distance a large afurrjber of Indians, and those of us whqjpadnot made the trip to the mountairisbefore were ex cited in anticipation of a brush, when the Indians suddenly disappeard. The plain stretched in full view before us, and we could have seen them go off in any direc tion. You can imagine our wonder, und the jokes put at us by the older trappers, who tried to make us believe we had seen a mirage, common on those plains. But a short time brought us to the under ground village of tho Pawnees, where they lived in subterranean rooms, like the prairie dogs. These rooms were about eight feet in diameter, and lined with grass and buffalo hides, each being the abode of a family. We had no especial incidents beyond those of hunt ing and trapping on the expedition. We ran into a party of Kickarees who were going to fight the Pawnees, and a few of our fellows put the party to flight. Along the mountains ten or twenty In dians would occasionally pitch at one of our men when they got him in a close place, but if he could get a fair show he could keep them off until assistance reached him. They prefeared fighting their Indian enemies to bothering us. In 1825 we traveled 1,200 miles, to our beaver grounds, and our cartswere taken through the South Pass nine years be fore Bonneville is said to have taken the first wagon train through there. None of the regular trapping outfits had wagons in those days, but a light cart called a charatte was used by the voy agers. The Santa Fe traders who went after silver took a routeof 1,100 miles through the wilderness ten years before JIarcy graduated from West Point, in 1832. Along between 1825 and 1835 the fur trade fever was at its height. The Amer ican fur company of St. Louis and the other companies had over 1,000 men in their employ. They built forts at the mouth of the Yellowstone, at the Man dan Village (above the present site of Bismarck, D. T.), and at the mouth of Teton, since called Bad river. Fort Leavenwortb was also built by the United States. The British company had fully a thousand men trapping and trading west of the mountains, and the Mexicans had quite as many trappers from the mountains to the Pacific, and traders and trappers scattered all over the west and northwest. Many of these men found gold in the Black Hi'ls and other places, but the trapping and trad ing paid far better than gold hunting, and was more certain, and when the rush was mado for California all the old trap pers pointed to the Black Hills as a fine field for mining enterprise. These trap- peis rarely ever became miners; they preferred their solitary rambles to the bustle of a mining camp ; but they pene trated everywhere and guided the ex plorers to the wonderful scenes in whose description they have gained such fame. In conclusion I will say that Kit Car son was a relative of mine, though much younger, his mother being a Boone. One day meeting Freemont in the capitol and speaking of Carson and other things he paid: " Boone, I thought I was the first whits man at Indepeud' ence rock, but I found your name there." I then told him that it was the trap tiers' milt-post on the Sweetwater for I years before I saw it. EAT MORE AX It VRIXK LESS. If you would keep from drinking so great a quantity of ardent spirits, eat, cat more. Eat nutritious food. Eat some thing whenever you take a drink. The drunk, in all cases, comes from the stom ach full of whiskey and no food. There is a simple lesson yet te be learned by many and that is, they do not eat enough of real blood, bone, nerve, and tissue making food. You may half starve te death on salt fish, potatoes, cabbage, turnips, fried liver, stewed kidney, and a score of other dishes which please the taste but add little or nothing to the body force. Efg9, the best of steak mutton, and bread are what one requires, for strength. It is this unconscious, half-starved condition which causes so much of the craving for a temporary in crease of strength, and that is quickest gained through a glass of whiskey. That gives for a few moments a spasmodic im pulse to the wheIs of life, sending them whizzing and spinning around for a few moments. Then comes reaction, and they turn more sluggUhly thau ever.

The slate business of the Lehigh valley is better now than ever before, the ex port to foreign countries being largely on the increase, 44,717 cases of school slates and 10,746 tons of roofing slate having been shipped to Great Britain during the year. In respect to its actual illuminating power, the coal gas of the city of Lon don to-day is but little, if any, better j than it was a quarter of a century since. Mr. T. S. D. Humpidge, on English analyst, thinks that the advance made during that period relates to the improve ment of burners than to the improve ment of the gas itself. The Canadian minister of agriculture asserts that Paris green is the only sub stance yet discovered to be effectual on a large scale for the destruction of the Colo rado potato beetle before in the larva Btate. It has been pointed out that there might be some danger of poisoning persons if it were indiscriminately applied to the leaves of plants for this purpose, but it appears to have been extensively used in many of the states. The so-called JMexican onyx, which was bo greatly admired at the centennial exhibition, occurs most abundantly in the Mexican state of Piiebla, near the to wn of Tecalli, and is chiefly a carbonate of calcium. According to Prof. Bacena, one of the commissioners from Mexico, the variegated green and reddish hues of the beautiful rock are attributable to the presence of the oxides of manganese and of iron in small quantities. The memoirs of the geological survey of India are now in course of publica tion by the government. A recent volume contains a description of the Punjaub, west of the Indus river. The salt is generally pure, and not less than 2,230 feet in maximum thickness, but its precise geological age is doubtful, as it contains no fossils. Hills and cliffs of salt are numerous, and the mineral crops out in various other paits of the district. An effort to determine how much the earth's temperature is affected by the presence of spots on the sun has been made by Prof. Langley, of the Alleghany astronomical observatory, at Pittsburg. His calculations indicate that when the sun-spots are fewest the meyi tempera ture of the earth due tf-solar radiation . is from thresf tenths to one-twentieth of a degree greater than when the sun-spots are most numerous. The degree on which the measurements are basei is that of the centrigrade thermometer. , Among the latest papets of Prof. O, C. Marsh in regard to the fossils in the Yale college museum is a brief account of the American pterodactyls or gigantic flying lizards, whose remains have been found in the cretaceous deposits of Kan sas. Some of them, he says, have t spread of wings not less than twenty-five feet, and they differ from similar crea tures of the Old World, especially in the absence of teeth. He has classified them into two genera: Pteraitodon, which comprises the largest lizards already mentioned, and Nyeiosaurtit, a new genus. of which the type was a pterodactyl of smaller size, having a space of eight or ten feet between the expanded wing tips Arithmetic does Dot keep pace with the other mathematical sciences. An address on the present state of mathe matical science was lately delivered be fore the mathematical society in London by "Prof. II. S. Smith, who said that while some of the greatest conceptions of modern algebra had their rigin in connection with arithmetic, "the pro gress of modern algebra and geometry had far outstripped tho progress oi arith metic, and one great problem which arithmeticians have now is to endeavor to turn to account for their own science the great results which have been at tained in the sister sciences." He ao knowledged, however, that this would be a difficult task. No wolves are now found in New Eng. land south of northern Maine and the White mountains, but as late as the be ginning of the present century wolves were met with in New Hampshire and the southern parts of Maine and Ver mont. Mr. J. A. Allen, who gives the facts in the Naturalist, rejects the theory that our common red fox ia descended from English foxes brought to America and turned loose by the early colonists. He thinks, however, that the red fox has spread southward' along the Atlantic coast during tne last two centuries, and that the gray fox has retreated corres pondingly in the same direction. The otter and raccoon are almost extinct in New England, and the number o! black bears are fast diminishing. It does not appear that the polar bear ever came so far south, but it visits the coast of Labra dor, and has been seen there within the last twelve years. APHORISMS OF PESTALOXZI. The powerful stimulus of inquisitive ness prompts to exertions which, if encouraged by others, will lead to a habit of thought. As soon as the inrant has reached a certain age every object that surrounds him might be made instrumental to the excitement of thought. Education is not the work of a certain course of exercises, resumed at stated times, but of a continual and benevolent superintendence. Education should not only decide what is to be made of a child, but rather inquire what is a child qualified for. If, according to correct principles, all the facilities of man are. to be developed, and all his energies called into play, the early attention of mothers must be directed to the physical education of children. The early and continued practice of exercises on the gymnastic system es sentially contribute to render children cheerful and healthy to promote among them a spirit of union and brotherly love, habits of industry, openness and frankness ef character, personal courage, and manly conduct in suffering pain. The greatest liberty must prevail, and the whole must be done with a certain cheerfulness, without which all these exercises would become dull, pedantic and ridiculous. It seems not to be sufficiently under stood that good taste and good feelings are kindred to and reciprocally confirm each other. There is a marked and most beneficial influence of music on the feelings which I have always observed to be most efficient in preparing or attuning the mind for the best of impressions. Those schools or families in which music has retained the cheerful and chaste character which it is so important that it should preserve, have invariably displayed tee nee of moral feeling, and, consequently, of happiness. Among the first manifestations of the facilities of a child, is a desire and an at tempt of imitation. It is well to furnish children with playthings, which will facilitate their first essays, and, occasionally, to assist them. It is necessary to analyze for them the parts and elements of which a whole consists. Children should not be confined to copying from another drawing, but copy from nature. Next to the exercises of drawing come those of modeling, in whatever materials may be most conveniently employed. This is frequently productive of even more amusement. In geography the drawing of outline maps is an exercise wnica ougnt not to be neglected. It gives the most accurate idea of the proportional extent and general positions of different countries; conveys a more distinct notion than any description, and leaves the most per manent impressions on the memory. New York School Journal. THE MAJOR AXD BIS I)OOS. The first case is one which occurred at a fashionable watering-place on the east coast of Ireland, some twenty years ago, and exhibits the remarkable f ajacity dis played by a dog in cai rying out the dic tates of the animal passion for revenge. The jetty which stretched along the small harbor was at that time used as a promenade by the elite among the so journers on the coast, where, after the heat of the long summer days, they re galed themselves with the fresh evening breezes wafted in from the sea. Among the frequenters of this fashionable resort was a gentleman of some position, who was the owner of a fine Newfoundland dog, which inherited the time-honored possessions of that noble breed very great power and facility in swimming and, at the period of the evening when the jetty was most crowded with prom enaders, his master delighted to put this animal through a series of aquatic per formances for the entertainment of the assembled spectators. Amusement be ing at a premium on the coast, these nightly performances grew into some thing like an "institution," and the brave Captain" for such was his name speedily became a universal favorite on the jetty. It happened, however, that among the new asrivais on the coast there came a ceptaia major in her majes ty's army, accompanied by two bull-dogs of unusual size and strength, and of I great value ; buj, value in a bull-dog be- in ginversely proportionate to its beauty, the- appearance "or1 the major and his dogs excited no very enthusiastic pleasure among the sethetic strollers on the jetty. On tfio first igiM0tn which the major presented himself, nothing unusual oc curred ; and Captain dived and swam as before. But on the second evening the brave old favorite was walking quietly behind his master down the jetty, when, as they were pasting by the major and his dogs, one of these ugly brutes flew at Captain,-and caught him by the neck in such a way as to render his great size utterly useless for his defense. A vio lent struggle ensued, but the bull-dog came off the victor, for be stuck to his foe like a leech, and could only be forced to release his hold by the insertion of a bar of iron between his teeth. The in dignation of the by-standers against the major was, of course, veiy great ; and its fervor was not a little increased when they saw the poor Captain wending his way homeward, bleeding, and bearing all the marks of defeat. Some two or three evenings after this occurrence, when Captain again ma le his appearance on the jetty, he looked quite crestfallen, bore his tail between his legs, and stuck closely to the heels of his master. That evening passed away qu;etly, and the next, and the next, and so on for about a week Captain still bearing the aspect of mourning. But one evening about eight or ten days after the above en counter, as the major was marching in his usual pompous manner along the jetty, accompanied by his dog,something attracted his attention in the water.and, walking to the very edge of the jetty, he stood for a moment looking down into the sea. Scarcely had the two bull-dogs taken up their stand beside their master when Captain, siezing the opportunity for which he had so long looked, rushed at his former conqueror, and, catching him by the back of the neck, jumped off the jetty, with his foe " in his mouth, clown some twenty feet or more into the sea. Once in the water, the power of his enemy was crippled, 'while Captain was altogether in his own element; and, easily overcoming all efforts at resistance, he succeeded in resolutely keeping the bull-dog's head under water. The excitement on the shore was, of ceurse, intense. ' The major shouted, and called out: "My dog! my beautiful dog! Will no one save him?" But no one seemed at all inclined to in terfere, or to risk his life for the ugly dog. At length the major called out: "I'll give fifty pounds to any one who will save my dog;" and soon afterward a boat which lay a some little distance pulled up to the rescue. Even then, however, it was only by striking Captain on the head with the oars that he could be forced to release his victim, which was taken into the boat quite senseless from exhaustion and suffocation, and was with difficulty brought to itself agaiu. Cap tain, on the other hand, swam in tri umph to the shore, amid the plaudits of the spectators, who shared, in sympathy at leat, his well-earned honors of re venge. Popular Science Monthly. JUA CA VLA T"S PR EBICTIOSS. Harper's Magazine for February will contain a number of letters from the late Lord Macaulay to II. S. Handall, author of the "life of Jefferson," that, although written nearly twenty years ago, are particularly timely at this moment. Macaulay did not believe in Jefferson or the Jefferfonian policy and he expressed himself very freely to Mr. Randall. We quote in advance of its publication a few extracts from a letter dated May 23, 1857: You are surprised to learn that I have not a high opinion of Mr. JefFersen, and I am surprised at your surprise. I am certain that I never wrote a line, and that I never, in parliament, in conversa tion, or even on the hustings a place where it is the fashion to court the populace uttered a word indicating an r r ' state ought lo be intrusted to the ma- jority of citizens told by the head ; in other words, to the poorest and most ig norant part of society. I have long been convinced that institutions purely dem ocratic must, sooner or later, destroy libertyorcivilization.'orboth. In Europe, where th population is dense, the effect of such institution would be almost instantaneous. You may think that your country enjoys an ex emption from these evils. I will frankly own to you that lam of a very different opinion. Your fate I believe to be cer tain, though it is deferred by a physical cause. As long as you have a boundless extent of fertile and unoccupied land your laboring population will be far more at ease than the laboring population of the old world, and while that is the case, the Jefferson politics may continue to exist without causing any fatal calamity. But the time will come when New England will be as thickly peopled as Old England. Wages will be as low, and will fluctuate as much with you as with us. You will have your Man chester and Birmingham, and in those Manchesters and Bbrminghams hundreds of thousands of artisans will assuredly be sometimes out of work. Then your in structions will be fairly brought to the test It is quite plain that your government will never be able to restrain a distressed and discontented majority. For with you the majority is the government, and has the rich, who are always a minority, absolutely at its mercy. The day will come when in the state of New York a multitude of people, none of whom has had more than half a breakfast, or expects to have more than half a dinner, will choose a legislature. It is possible to doubt what sort of a legislature will be chosen ? On one side is a statesman preaching patience, re spect for vested rights, strict observance of public faith. On the other is a dema gogue ranting about the tyranny of cap italists and assurers, and asking why any body should be permitted to drink cham pagne and ridejin a carriage while thou sands of honest folks are in want of neces saries. Which of the two candidates is likely to be pieferred by a workingman whohears his children cry for more bread. I seriously apprehend that you will, in some such season of adversity as I have described, do things which will prevent prosperity from returning ; that you will act like people who would in a vear of scarcity devour all the seed corn, and thus make the next a year not of scarcity, but of absolute famine. There will be, I fear, spoliation. The spoliation will increase the distress. . The distress will produce fresh spoliation. There is noth ing to stop you. Your constitution is all sail and no anchor. As I said before, when a society has entered on this down ward progress either civilization or liberty must perish. Either some Csesar or Napoleon will seize the reins of govern ment with strong hand or your republic will be as fearfully plundered and laid waste by barbarians in the twentieth century as the Boman empire was in the fifth, with the difference, that the huns and vandals who ravaged the Roman empire came from without, and that your huns and vandals will have been engendered within your own country by your own institutions. Canada merchants have had a bad time of it for several years back. The annual circular of Dun, Wiman & Co. of Montreal for 1876 shows that the two years just past have been disastrous to them, more so in fact than 1873, the year of the panic, or the year after. In 1876, one man in every thirty-two doing bus iness in Canada failed, although in the United States the ratio was only one in every sixty-nine. I he cause or this gloomy state of affairs is reported to be that Canada has too many merchants. Inflation of banking capital and infla tion of credit have raised an army of business men out of all proportion to the population, and the trade will not sus tain them. Then again, the crops north of the lakes failed this year, and the Canada farmer sighs and refusts to buy The consequence is general discourage ment. It is a source of regret to dis cover that our neighbor has a serious at tack of the blues just at the time when we are getting over our own, and are be ginning to enjoy reviving prosperity. It calls attention, however, to the healthier conditions of trade in this country, and the prospect that as soon as the presi dential uncertainty is over there will be a genuine revival of business. THE PRODICIAL. Inheritors of vast wealth are proverbially spendthrift. The golden ore is dug from the mine, refined, and coined, by the labor of other hands and the sweat of other brows. Like children playing with aa expensive toy, they can form no just estimate of its value. When the donor weighed it, he cast into the balance so many days of unremitting and fatiguing toil, so many anxioas and sleepless nights, so much self-denial, and so much care. Bat tbe inheritor into his balance throws only pleasure. The one, values it by what it cost him ; the other, for what it will purchase. Like the prodigal in the Scripture parable, he thoughtlessly expends it to gratify the caprice and cravings of his nature. Then comes the last rcene the mis ery, the remorse, and the long and wearisome journey back to the home of frugal industry. Bat there are other prodigals. On her fav orites our bounteous parent, Nature, has lavished her richest treasure health. 15ut the prodigal values it lightly, for it cost him naught, and recklessly squanders it in riot ous living. Present pleasure obscures future want. Soon the curtain rises on the last scene. We see him helpless, impoverished, the rich treasures of body and mind all lost, in misery and despair. Remorseful conscience holds up to him the mirror of memory. In his own reckless folly he per ceives the cause of his present pain. He resolves to return. The journey is long and tedious, but if he perseveringly follows the right road, he will at length eee the haven of his hopes in the distance, and Nature, seeing her invalid child afar oft, will come out to meet him, and receive him hsck with love and blessing. To find the right road home ward, the suffering prodigal should read "The People's Common Sense Medical Ad viser."

Mushroom manufac turers that grow up in a night and flaunt then wares in the face of the public, gaudy and impudently, may seem to flourish for a time ; but their prosperity is a he, as their pretensions are a cheat. The sure success that crewr.s honestv, industry, probity and thoroughness is slow of growth ; but when it comes it is stesd ft. and honorable to the end. The Estey Organs have achieved this success gradually, through vears of sturdy toil, paCent experi ment, tireless watchfulness and unvarying promptitude in additions and improvements. Thirty years ago the primitive prototype of the present magnificent instrument was made. Tlace the two Bido by side and read tho lustory of a generation of industry and invention. Thirty years ago only the wealthy could afford to possess musical instrument of any sort, and thousands of churches were destitute of the charm of instrumental music in their wor ship. To-day the humblest homo, may have lU fireside organ, to lend sweet attraction to the home circle, and the feeblest church or Sabbath school a beautif ill instrument, to give voice and earnestness to its pious praise. This happy change is due to the Estey Organ more than to anv other one cause. The constant and nndevt ,.r it makers has been to produce a lwrfect reed instrument that should be within the reach of the popular purse in price. Every mechanical appliance that human ingenuity could devise and human patience perfect has been brought to bear in.xm this end. Trust worthy experience from all quarters has lavish ed its ripest fruit unstintedly to promote this object. The materials used have been rigidly subjected to every possible test that could in anv wav conduce to their adapt ability and dura bilitv. " What is the result at the end of thirty year.4? The lowest priced pipe organs that are worth bnving cost $1,500. Slessrs. Estey & Jo. furnish for from 2iK) to 30 a reed organ so admirably balanced in tone and ixvvrer that two thirds of "the congregation in an ordinary small church would suppose it a piie organ if it was concealed from view. A really good piano from a reliable maker cannot 1 taught for less than 400 to 500. An Estey Organ, suited to the eanacitv and requirements of any family, may be purchased for 130 or 200, and a thoroughly good one for 70. Tbi is practical ihiUnthro pv of a qualitv as refreshing as it is rare. This i.i something worth working and waiting f or ; and it is jteculiarlv gratifying to know that all concerned maker, seller, buyer and performer reap an equitable share of the benefits of a result so truly beneficent. That which conserves the pnlhe welfare nmtnnlra nrivate interest flood wine needs no bush. Honesty pays best. Messrs. Estey & Co. have proved the truth of these aphorisms, and in an age of shams have demonstrated that solid merit is tho true toucliBtwne of success. Nino thousand organs were turned out there last vear and sent to every quarter of the globe, in more than ontM'itance supplanting entirelv the instruments of European makers in the old world t,These organsj-epresentod a business of over one million dollars f American Standard Shot, of superior EnUh, also lead pipe and sheet lead, manufac tured bv the Col well Lead Co., successor to the New L?ad Co. 63 Centre St., New York. proof: moor:: iKoor::: Da.

Ho begun tho business iu BrattMsiro', thirty years ago, in a single room, with six workmen, and has nmko his wav constantly forward, in spite of more dis asters 'and drawbacks than often nttesid such enterprises. This fact H one to m nisu Him self. He has made himself, through force of ho.Hvty, energy, shrewdnrss and perseverance, rioddii.g on aiid on, smiling at disasters by fire and flood, planting his feet resolutely 'i. all olmtacles. with indomitable faith in himself and his work, he l.ns reached a very proud place among his fellows, while still in the prune of a. halo and vigorous .hsiiihwhi. jh .-A........... ability is great. He knows every detail of tha vast business mid watches its daily progress with a marvelous approach to omnipresence. But, however absorlM-d lie ninv oo ... hum uir.i tion, he has never m glin ted his highest duties and privileges as a citieu. Always foremost in even-thing conducive to the public welfare, active ly interested in affairs of church, Stato and society, his influence has lecn wido and good and the cordial ext. -cm ho has earned so honornblv waits impatiently for a fitting opjsir- tunity to do Inn. honor in hind. The voimgcr memls rs of tho firm, who havo Wn active partners for a decade of years, had Is-en trained in tho business under ino v.nuon of their senior for some timo previous, and tli partnership onlv s rved to concentrate their energies. Thev are young men of sterling natural ability.' and seem toliave been particu larly well fitted for the iM.sitions assigned them.' Mr." Julius Estev is at the head of the counting room and supervises the mathematical intrica cies of the immense business with a clear-headed faculty that might well le considered a synonvm for uniform correctness. The counting-room of a manufactory is where its heart i-.i. II. ...in. tli.r.i means stron if anil regular pulsation through all the veins and arteries of workshop and storehouse. Mr. Fuller is at tho head of the nieelianics of the concent. His native talent, stimulated by a thorough mechanical training, has been invaluable and in dispensable in tho long and uninterrupted se ries of ex crimcnts and inventions which, un der his ready and inU lligeut guidance, havo Is-en combined in the complete whole known as tho Estev Organ. Both these gentleman arc, equally with their elder, in tho van of every movement that tends t- promoto the pulmo wealth and prosis ritv : as reliable, progressive, faithful and enthusiastic in ail such matters as iu their personal affairs.
