And yet tola baby's crass as a beat MY MINISTERING ANGEL. We were all at Lonsr Branch.' All included Tout and his wife, Nettie, and your humble servant, Walter Bjrne, Tom's cousin and a wandering waif of a rich man, without occupation, home or family ties. Nettie was Tom's wife's cousin. I had heard it said before I went down to Long Branch on Tom's invitation, that Nettie had emphatically declared that she knew she should detest Walter Byrne, for she hated an idle man, she despised a roving man, and rich young men were always horrid. Being giited with a moderate amount of self-conceit, and accustomed to receiv- xig rather flattering attentions trom the fair sex, I stroked my mustache and shrugged my shoulders, resolved that Miss Annette Raymond's detestation wag matter of profound indifference to me. The first tune 1 saw her she was bob bing np and down holding on to the bather s rope. Tom was driving me over to his cottage, and pulled up his horses. "There's Nettie," he Baid, "in the broad straw hat and scarlet suit. Halloa, Netl" A pair of saucy black eyes gazed at us, and a piquant, pretty face was visible under the straw hat "Where's Amy?" shouted Tom. " Got the headache." Tom laughed as we drove on. " Amy won't bathe unless I am with her," he said ; she is nine-tenths afraid." While I was in my room arranging toy bachelor belongings, Nettie came across the garden in a crisp pink muslin, with her black hair loosely braided and tied with pink ribbons. She w?s more than pretty then, the most brilliant bru nette beauty, not more than seventeen years did, slender, graceful and altogether bewitching. For three weeks we quarreled about ten times a day. Nettie mocked at my lazy speech, taunted my stylish cos tumes, made fun of my neckties, and my gloves, and gave me fully to understand that I was a coxcomb. I bore it philo sophically, but in my heart I raged. I was not accustomed to being treated in that style, but Nettie seemed to ignore my bank account entirely. We nearly came to a better under standing once, when Miss Nettie was carried out by the undertow, and might have been drowned, if I had not been a powerful fellow and a good swimmer. I brought her home, all limp and senseless, and she was very quiet all day, and almost begged my pardon for all former offenses in her gratitude. But the next day she was worse than ever, and the day after that she left. 1 wandered about aimlessly to tha White Mountains, Niagara, up and down, until October, when a party going to Europe tempted me, and I sailed away from New York and Nettie. I was not in love,- but certainly I thought more frequently of those saucy black eyes, the sweet rippling voice and beautiful face of Nettie Raymond than I had ever thought of any woman's charms. It would be too kpg a story to tell all my advenhirea in the next two years, but it was lust so much later in my lite when I found myself traveling homeward from Florida, sick and wretched. We had been wrecked off the coast of Florida, and I - was ill with fever con tracted in New Orleans, when I was tossed up, high and dry, in a suit of sailor's clothes hurriedly snatched up as my sailor nurse and myself dressed in the confusion, unconsciously appropria ting each other's clothes. My watch, purse, papers, were all in my pockets, but in the sailor's coat I found money enough to carry jne home, to such a home as I could command, a room in a boarding house 1 But I was terribly ill, and every day the prostrating heat was weakening to me. It was like insanity, the longing I had for a breath of northern air and so I sped on and over the iron road, looking more like a walking corpse than a living man. My journey was nearlv accomnlished when I sat in the train carrying me from Washington to New York, mv last dol lar spent, my rough clothes travel-worn and shabby, my life almost gone from me. I don't know exactly when I fainted. but I came to consciousness perceiving a fragrance of cologne water near me, and knowing something was held to my lips. i lasted wine, pro x was too weak to speak. Little coel hands arranged some soft bundle under my head, and then a fan stirred the air around me. I must have slept, and again I awoke. V ery near me, on the next scat, 1 heard It sweet, low voice, saying : W e get on at the next station, and 1 hate to awaken that poor sailor for my handerehief. I nut it over his bundle for his pillow, and them ia snofhirr nn his forehead." A voiee, pettish and familiar answered: "Just like your imnulonra I v that common fellow will have your hand kerchief I You are so horritilv imrml. sive I It is very forward and unniaid enly to have been fussing over a strange man, at any rate. You don't know how he may annoy you." liow and sweet, quivering a little, came a voice in answer : "He will never annoy any one. . If ever death was written in a face, I saw it in his lace. " It is none of tout business." ' It is my business. You may scold as you like. K it is unmaidenly to stretch out a hand to a dying man for five minutes, then I shall never meet your idea of decorum." And as it to prove her words, the speaker arose from her seat and leaned over roine.- My head was lower than the back of the seat, resting on the window sill, and my feet stretched. out to the next space. I kept my eyes closed, and I knew the handkerchief upon my forehead was moistened again with cologne water just as tne train stopped. The conductor shouted, "Klizaheth," and the ladies gathered up their traps and departed. I could only see linen dusters and brown veils as they walked down between the car seats, but I kept my seat. Elizabeth had been my own destina tion, for Tom had always a cordial wel come for me, and I longed to die where there was a friendly face in sight. But I kept on to New York, presenting my self to my old landlady, who had some difficulty in believing in my identity, but being convinced nursed me as if I had been her own son. Tom came to see me when my lawyer informed him of my return, but the ladies had gone to the Delaware Water Gap for the summer, and I was well pleased. Much of my faith in Amy's friendship had evaporated, and I wanted my shaved head to be covered my emaciated face to fill out before Nettie saw me again. I had had my taste for salt water am ply gratified, and rebelled when the doc tor ordered a sea voyage to perfect my recovery. But he had his way, and again it was summer before I returned home, and accepted Tom's invitation to his cottage at Long Branch. "We have concluded to take a cottage at Long Branch this summer," he wrote, "and want you to join us, if possible, in July." How can I describe Nettie Nettie Raymond still after three years of sep aration? Beautiful as ever, animated, accomplished, she was fascinating to all But the imp of mischief had not quite deserted her, though she was more dig nified. She was not openly saucy, as she had been, but could put stingr 'nto quiet, apparent innocent speeches, and I often winced under her satire. For I did love her then. Every ho at added to my admiration my affection yet there was never in her manner one atom of encouragement on which to hang a hope. Although I had recovered my health and strength almost entirely, I was still subject to attacks of headache that pros trated me for hours conscious of noth ing but terrible pain. The first one I had at Long Branch came on about three weeks after my arriv al, when I had walked too far in the sun. Tom was alone when I staggered into the house, nearly blind, and he put me down upon a wide lounge in a lower room, dark ened the windows, and put cold water on my head. ''Amy will be here presently," he said ; "she has gone to ride with Nettie. I"l keep Nettie out of your way, old fellow. She must be rather a torture to a sick man. Vivacity is all very well in its place, but I had as lief shut up a swarm of mosquitoes in a sick room as Nettie." I made no reply, and lay mute and mis erable until the carriage drove up. "111? Walter ill?" I heard Amy say in a low voice. "Go in, Nettie and see if he wants anything." "You can attend to him," said Nettie, coldly. "I have my dress to arrange for the hop." "Nettie !" this in a provoked whisper, "you are not going to let half a million of money " "Hush !" was the sharp reply. "I wish he was a beggar !" "He would be very much obliged to you." But Amy little dreamed she spoke the truth. Nettie wished I was a beg gar! Why? Could i be my wealth was the barrier between us, that as a beggar I might have won her love? My heart thobbed heavily as Amy opened the door of the room where I lay and came softly to my side. " V alter, she whispered, and then stole out again. "He is asleep 1" she said, and I heard her go up stairs. But presently there was a soft rustle in the room, and a ray of sunshine that had crept to a crack in the shatter was shut out,. A perfume hovered about me, though the handker chief was not laid upon my head, and then a little choking whisper came to my ears. "Poor fellow I T can never forget he saved my life once." J. he soft rustle came nearer and .bet tie was looking down at me, when I opened my eyes. She was startled, but only showed it by a faint flush on each fair cheek. Her voice was quiet as she said: "Can I do anything for you ?" "Won't you please fan . me ?" I said, after trying to think of an occupation that would keep her near me. Still she fanned in a hasty way and I said: 'You have not improved since last summer. X ou made a tan imitate uie gentlest summer breezes then." "II 1 never fanned you before 1 "Once before." I said, "you fanned me, bathed my forehead, and pillowed my head on this !" and 1 drew out from my breast a flimsy handkerchief marked "Annette Raymond." t?.'.t Nettie was only bewildered- The gentle act of pity and charity I had cher ished as a memory almost sacred she had almost forgotten. "You did not recognize me," I said, "I am the sailor you thought dying in the oars lost Rummer." "It cannot be possible I" she cried. "It is true, Nettie," I continued, im ploringly catching her hand as she was going to arise. "Why must all your gentleness and pity be kept for beggars ? Can not you give one little corner to a rich mart who loves you? See how I need you as much as I did last Bum mer, when you thought I was a pau per and dying. Now my heart is dying for your love, Nettie." She was trembling, blushing yield ing, and I did not spare my pleadiag- With all the eloquence at my command I wooed her, and at last the little hand in mine struggled for freedom no longer, and Ntittio consented to be my wife, my ministering angel for life I It h rumored nmnno the Chinese that. in consoquenco of numerous national I -.

Pictures from Life in the Black Hills. The poet-novelist of the Blank-blank school will find in the Black Hills characters for his romance sitting astrad dle of stumps, dealing cards or shooting anybody down on the spot. Petite Kit- tae, the jig-dancer, with Koiuan nose and cold, gray eyes, marrying three times and dying at twenty-eight, is a promising heroine. She first spun her delicate web about a good-natured German miner, who was doing well with his wash, and when he had poured $3,000 in gold in her lap and confessed that his claim had petered out, she beat him over the head with a bottle and drove him from her door. To one and another was she married, and when their money was gone she got rid of them. Her third venture was unfor tunate. She said she would not live with him, and he killed her and shot himself Another nice girl is Calamity Jane, a lit tle creature of twenty-two, whose move ments have an unstudied grace, and whose eyes emit a greenish glare whenever she is very mad. She has been a scout in the army, has dressed in soldier's clothes, has gone horseback over the mountains and fought with Indians, and is now dancing in a hurdy-gurdy house in Dead- wood. Then there is Monte Verde, with her dark eyes and tresses, who on her arrival in Deadwood stood upon a board and was borne through the town on the shoulders of four strapping miners, and who now deals "21" and dances a jig with a far-off look in her left eye. Cap tain tiacc, too, is a poet and a musician. as well as a frontier scout. He rides his horse like an Indian, and he has a pathos in nis voice, so that the miners, when they hear him sing, do snivel like chil dren. Aunt Sally, a colared woman as broad as she is long, rolls up her big eyes and mutters: "fse the first white woman as em come into these 'ere Hills." (Foundation for humorous character.) Finally there is, or was, Wild Bill, who always made it a point to kill his man first. but who turned his back upon the door one night, and as he stood at the bar, asking his friends if their glasses were charged, gave a stranger a chance to shoot him in the back, and who now lies buried underneath a stump with his epitaph painted in red letters on a pine board. The rising young genius who 'wants to achieve fame in literature at one yellow cover, will please take the first train for the Hills. A Sharp Swindle. A new development in the check-raising line has been manifested within the past few days, and ene of our city banks mourns the consequences. The trick is original, altho.gh but an adaptation of a very old one, and so far the guilty parties are at large. As usual in such cases the simplicity of the scheme proved to be the cause of the success, and, un less the operators should give themselves away, a wide field lays before them. The modut operandi was as follows : A deccntlyidressed man, got up to rep resent a traveling salesman, entered a country bank and bought a draft on Chicago for $1,500. Later in the day another customer turned up, and he wanted a draft for $15. Both received the documents, paid the charges, and departed. On the following day a draft for $1,5000 was presented at the Chicago bank. The teller telegraphed to his country correspondent to know if such draft had been issued on that date, and. of course, received an affirmative reply. The money was paid over, and the re cipient walked off with it. On the following morning the pur chaser of the $1,500 draft returns to the country bank, and with some little irritation states that he presented it in Chicago, and was met with a demand for identification, with which he was unable to comply. He, therefore, wants his money back, and, commissions being de ducted, il is handed to him. Not for three days was it discovered that the draft presented in Chicago, and there honored, was the $15 one, deftly raised to $1,000, and by that time the swind lers had ample opportunity to cover up their tracks. . On whom the loss will fall is an open question, for both' banks en forced the usual rules in such cases made and provided, and it would be difficult to prove neglect on either. Chicago Tribune. Worry. Men and women given over to worry, will worry about the strangest, the most out-of-the-way, the most unheard-of, the most laughable things it is possible to con ceive, lit matters very little what are the outward circumstances the will can find something in them to remind it of its own limitation of power, and to provoke its consequent resentment. It is curious to see how people of this habit will take any thing that first comes to hand good, bad, or indifferent and instantly begin to find in it something to grow anxious and im patient over, and to pull about first on this side and then on that, until an excit ing consciousness of their own inability to do anything in the matter, and an irritated feeling in consequence of it, get the upper hand of their good sense. What we have to say upon this subject by way of prac tical suggestion is just what everybody says, and says to little or no purpose. Worry dosen't do you the least good. It relieves from nothing, it helps nothing, it qualifies for no work, it conduces to no desirable result. It very gratuitously puts an immense amount of wear and tear upon the nervous system without in the slightest degree obtaining in return any compensatory satisfaction. It is neither a duty nor a pleasure; and yet men almost invite, certainly entertain it, as if it were both 1 Too Old to Study. Cato at eighty years of age commenced to study the Greek language. Socrates at an extreme old age learned to play on musical instruments. Pultarch, when between seventy and eighty, commenced the study of Latin. Dr. Johnson applied himself to the Dutch language but a few years before his death. Ogilby, the trans lator of Homer and Virgil, was unac quainted with Latin and Greek till he was past fifty. Franklin did not com mence his philosophical pursuits till he had reached his fiftieth year. Drayden, in his sixty-eighth year, commenced the translation of the Iliad, his most pleasing production. Boocaoio was thirty-five years of age when he commenced his studies in polite literature; yet he be came one of the greatest masters of the Tuscan dialects, Duute and Petrarch be ing the other two. Sir Henry Spelman neglected the sciences in his youth, but coinmenoed the study of them when he was between fifty and sixty years of age. After this time he became a most learned antiquarian and lawyer. The Jewel and the Casket. The casket is prized because of the pro tection it affords the jeweL From the dust and corroding influences of the at mosphere, it protects the precious gem it contains, and that it may accomplish its purposes, it is carelulK watched and care fully protected itself. The immortal soul of man is the most precious jewel that sea oi sky or mountain ever hoarded, or that casket ever held, and the human body is the most delicately constructed casket ever made. Yet the great major ity of men and women appear to have but a slight appreciation of the worth of the jewel or to think it worth their while to bestow much care on the casket And yet the welfare of this jewel depends more upon uie preservation or its jasket than that of any other jewel in the world. The casket may crumble about the dia mond and the ruby but they will remain, and not even their beauty or usefulness will be permanently effected. But knowl edge is what makes the soul beautiful. So long as there is a possibility of acquir ing knowledge there is a possibility of its being still more beautiful, and there will be this possibility all along the ages of eternity When the evening of life shall cast its shadows and the midnight shall approach, the soul's acquirement will at best seem meagu beside the volumes of that it has not learned. The fields, the mountains, the waters and the skies will then have yielded up to the soul but few of their mysteries and beauties. The flower will not have told all that it has to tell; the stars will yet hold a universe of beauty and fact which the soul has not grasped, and even in the three score years and ten the soul will have scarcely begun to expand and to beautify itself. V hat then are the natural inferences from these facts ? Why that the harder we study, the brighter and better be comes the soul But the mind cannot work to advantage in a weak body. It cannot strain its energies while the head aches or the limbs totter. If in a debil itated body mind has accomplished results of which it and the world have been proud, it ia only necessary to say that in a sound body it is reasonable to suppose that its achievements would have been greater and grander. Build up the body, there fore. Care tor it in every possible way, and avoid every excess, remembering that nothing will so much tend to physical health as temperance in all things. No Fun in Him. One of the members of the Methodist Conference, recently held in Detroit, Mich., was out for a walk at an early hour one morning, and while on Howard street he encountered a strapping big fellow who was drawing a wagon to-tho blacksmith's shop. " Catch hold here and help me down to the shop with this wagon, and I'll buy the whisky," called the fellow. " 1 never drink, solemnly replied the good man. " Well, you can take a cigar. " I never smoke." The man dropped the wagon-tongue, looked hard at the member, and asked : " Don t you chew ? " No, sir," was the decided reply. "You must get mighty lonesome," mused the teamster. " I guess I'm all right ; I feel first- rate." " I'll bet you even that I can lay you on your back," remarked the teamster, " come now, let's warm up a little." " 1 never bet " WelL let's take each other down for fun then. You are as big a man as I am, and I'll give you the underhold." "I never have any tun, solemnly answered the member. " Well, I am going to tackle you any way. Here we go." The teamster slid un and endeavored to get a neck-hold, but he had only just commenced to fool about when he was lifted clear off the grass and slammed against a tree-box with such force that he gasped half a dozen times before he could get his breath. "Now you keep away from me! exclaimed the minister, picking up his cane. " Bust me if I don't" replied the teamster, as he edged off. " What's the use in lying, and saying you don't have any fun in you, when you're chuck full of it I xou wanted to break my neck, didn't you? You just hang around here about five minutes you old Texan, and III bring on a feller who 11 cave m your head." " I never hang," said the minister, as he sauntered off; and the teamster leaned upon his wagon and mused. The Farmer and His Money. The farmers who " lifted " the mort gages from their land during the flush times caused by the war, were the for tunate ones ; while those who went into debt have generally failed. In view of the prosperity of the farming class during the past year, it is well to remember this experience. A combination of causes has produced lair prices m conjunction with an immense crop. But, the Rural World reminds the farmers that "the European war will not last always ; that next year perhaps there will be a larger crop in Great Britain than has been produced in fifty years ; that but a very small portion of our crops may be wanted abroad, and that in consequence the very lowest price may prevail for all our farm crops." To be forwarned is to be for armed. Farmers, therefore, who take in money for their crops this year, had bet ter pay their debts. Instead of incurring new debts, pay off the old ones. Get in an independent condition. The farm will always make the industrious farmer a good living. Resolve to owe no man a cent Pay as you go, and peace of mind will be yours that the debtor can not enjoy 5orracE8 of Bad Manners. Vanity, ill nature, want of sympathy, want of sense these are the chief sources from which bad manners spring. Nor can we imagine an incident in which a man could be at a loss as to what to say or do in company if he were always considerate for the feelings of others, did not forget himself, and did not lose his head or leave his common sense at home. Such a one may not have studied etiquette, yet be will speak and act like a gentleman. un tne other hand, a very pedant in form and bigot in ceremouica may be nothing less than " the mildest mannered man that ever cut a throat" As we can be wise without learning, bo it is quite possible to be well mannered with little or no knowl edge of those rules and forms which are, at best, only a substitute for common sense, and which cannot be considered essential to good manners, inasmuch as they vary in every country, and even in the same country change about with the veatheroock of fashion. Are You Gaining. If you are gaining a little every day, be content Are your expenses less than your income, that, though it be a little you are yet constantly accumulating and growing richer every day ? Be content, for as concerns money, you are doing well. Are you gaining knowledge every day ? Though it be little by little, the aggregate accumulation, where no day is permitted to pass without adding something to the stock, will be surprising to yourself. Sol omon did not become the wisest man in the world in a minute. Little by little never omitting to learn something, even for a single day always reading, always studying little between the time of ris ing up in the morning and lying down at night this is the way to accumulate a full storehouse of knowledge. Finally, are you daily gaining in character ? Be not discouraged because it be little by little. The best men fall far short of what they would wish to be. It is some thing, it is much if you keep good resolutions better to-day than you did yesterday, better this year than you did last year. Strive to be per fect, but do not become downhearted so long as you are approaching nearer and nearer to the high standard at which you aim. Little by little, fortunes are accum ulated ; little by little knowledge is gained ; little by little character and reputation are achieved. A Hasty Temper. The guardians of children too often confound extreme sensitiveness with a hasty temper, which is the prevailing fault of sensitive child ren. Little by little self-control can be taught, and infiltrations of such ideas, and motiveSjJand sentiments made in the child's mind, as will enable him to out grow and overcome his infirmity. Time cures a great many things ; children ont grow infirmities and faults, and if right principles of action and feeling are instill ed gently, constantly, wisely, the results will ultimately appear. It is mere cruelty to make the weak points of a child a source of teasing and ridicule, as it is often done in schools and families. If he is born with a deformed foot with de fective sight or hearing, how careful we are to try to make up to him what nature has denied 1 A defect in one's mental and moral organization should certainly be as tenderly and jucdiciously treated as a bodily deformity. A quick temper, an irritable, or timorous, or teasing dis position requires far more tact and judi cious management than any mere physical infirmity. When grown to maturity, our sensitive children become the poets, musicians, artists, writers, leaders of their time. Living in Hearts. It is better to live in hearts than houses. A change of circumstances may turn one out of a house to which he is strongly attached. Removing from place to place is with many an unavoidable incident ot life. But one cannot be expelled from a true and loving heart, save by his own fault. Go where he will, his home re mains in hearts which have learned to love him ; the roots of affection are not torn out and destroyed by such removals, but they remain fixed deep in the heart When one re-visits the home of his child hood, pleasant as it is to survey each familiar spot the house, the garden, the trees planted by himself, or by kindred now sleeping in the dust there is in the warm grasp of the hand, in the kind salu tation, a delight that no mere local object can bestow. To be remembered and loved, to live in hearts, is a solace amid earthly changes, a joy above all pleasures of scene and place. We love this union of hearts which death cannot destroy, for if there be heart purity as well as heart affection, it points to an unchanging and imperishable abode in a celestial sphere. Church Union. . -. Life Aims. Every one should try to better his con dition if he can. The poor man should try to increase his means ; the sick man to improve his health ; the ignorant man to acquire knowledge ; and the foolish mat to get understanding. In such matters the great question is whether the desired improvement is within our reach. To long for what we cannot attain, or to grieve because it is unattainable, is sim ply to play the part of the child that cries tor the moon. .Let us enow our selves and our position. Let us know what we have and what we want ; and then, let us next inqnire whether what we want can be got by striving for it If it cannot be got, let us think of it no more, or endeavor to compensate for the want in some other way. A short man may wish to be tall but he cannot add an inch, any more than a cubit to his stature. He may, however, be a very worthy and respectable man, for all that, if he con ducts himself with propriety and simplic ity, and does not, as short men some times da, render his diminutive size more conspicuous by conceit and affectation. A Win's View of Dueling. Smith has had a scene at the club with another gentleman of a peppery disposi tion ; blows and cards have been exchanged, a duel has been agreed upon, and he re turns to break the news to his wife. "Miserable man !" she cries in an ex s of emotion, "would you go forth to fight and be brought back to me all shot full of bullet holes and having your life- blood all spilled over the carpet f hat would become of me if you were killed ? The light of my life would be quenched in rayless gloom, and I would be reduced to want and misery, because all this for tune belongs to you, and as you have made no will, when vou are killed all the property will go to those miserable brats of neph " "Hold !" cries the husband. "lo not accuse me wronirfullv. I have thought of every contingency, aud arranged to se cure your happiness, anouiu i iau au my property will become yours.

"Go!" she exclaims; avenge this foul calumny, or never again dare to address me as your wuel TimnTuvRii An eminent physician says that the clothes, handkerchiefs, and napkins used about the sick with this disease Bhould be saturated with simple dwiufoctants. A person will get diph theria by kissing a child with it Some time ago a physician of Baltimore caught the disease in a singular manner. He was treating a young lady for diphtheria. She sneezed, and he felt a particle enter his nostrils. In two days afterward symptoms of the disease appeared, and in an incredible short time tlie physician died, in spite of every effort of his skilled associates to save his life. Who Loves a Rainy Day. The bored editor, who, in slippered feet, controls his arm-chair, exchanges and ink stand ; who has time to hunt up delin quent subscribers ; time to decipher man uscripts ; time to make a bonfire of bad poetry ; time to settle the long standing quarrel between the type-setter and the foreman ; and time to get up a new hum bug prospectus for the dear, confiding public. Who loves a rainy day ? The tidy little house-wife, who in neat cap and gown, overlooks the short-comings of careless cook and housemaid ; ex plores cupboards, cellars, pantries and closets ; disembowels old bags, old barrels, old kegs, old boxes ; who with her own hand prepares some dainty morsel for the toiling husband, sews on the missing string or button, or sings to slumber a pair of violet eyes. Who loves a rainy day ? I do! Let the rain fall ; let the wind moan ; let the leafless tree tap against my casement Wheel up the arm-chair I Not a blessed son or daughter of Adam can get in here to-day. Good Advice. The New England Farmer gives this advice. Let evsry young farmer who hopes to make a living by farming, de termine at the outset to have a library of the best books concerning his chosen busi ness to the extent of at least $25 and then when any new thing comes up which tempts him to spend a few dollars for trees, oats or the like, let him join with his farmers' club, or with some dozen of his neighbors, in testing the new thing, in a small way, for the benefit of all and at the expense of all. We have seen a traveling agent for a new kind of wonder ful but worthless seed corn, sell a twenty five or fifty-cent package at almost every house in town ; and where all the agricul tural books on the route, including the "Old Fanners' Almanac," would not equal the value of the sales of this one swindler. Bbain and Muscle. On the milt tary lists of the German empire 1,055, 000 men are inscribed. Of these as many as 393.000 have their names set down in a black list as having failed to observe the law of compulsory military service, and 190,000 of these have gone out of the way of it by emi grating. One in eight able-bodied Ger mans has resolved to quit his Father land rather than stop at home and share the prevailing poverty and enforced mili tary service which his nation has to en dure. In this manner Germany loses much of the muscle and brain of her young men. In this manner however, the United States gains annually many good citizens. Heretofore the great prairie States of the West have been more especially benefitted by this migra tion, but in the new order of things the South may reasonably hope to see in the next few years 'many thrifty and frugal Rhinelanders added to her population. Cities grow up and States become pow erful wherever the German has made his home. Manufacturer and Merchant. True Strength. We must meas ure a man's strength by the power of the feelings he subdues, not by the power of those which subdue him. And hence, composure is often the highest result of strength. Did we ever see a man receive a flagrant injury, and then reply calmly? That is a man spiritually strong. Or, . did we ever see a man in anguish, stand as if carved out of solid rock, as if mas tering himself? Or one bearing a hope less daily trial remain silent and never tell the world what cankered his home peace? That is strength. We too often mistake strong feelings for strong character. A man who bears all before him, before whose frown domestics trem ble, and whose bursts of fury make the children of the household quake, because he has his way in all things, we call him a strong man. The truth is, that he is a reak man; it is his passions that are strong he, mastered by them, is weak. Adulteration of Beer. Accord ing to a high German authority, beer is adulterated bv a treat varietv of drugs and j C - f other substances, principally vegetable; some of which are harmless, wnue otners are very injurious. These he classifies as, first the hitteT inoredients. intended to imitate the bitter taste of the hops; second, the bitter aromatic, also intended to reproduce the taste of the hop ; third, the aromatic, meant to make the beer mom stimnlatin? : fourth, the sharp and aromatically sharp, to make the taste more piquant ; fifth, the narcotic and sharply narcotic, to make the liquor more stupefy ing. Among the substances are men tioned opium, belladonna, henbane, to bean, oocculus indicus. etc.; all of which are more or less poiso- nous and reprehensioie. A Machine to Restore Respira tion. This invention consists of a sheet iron cylinder large enough to receive the body of an adult person. It is closed at one end, and the body of the person is inserted, feet foremost, at the open end, up to the neck, round which a dia phraghm is placed in such a manner as to prevent air from entering. The cylinder is partially exhausted, when the outer air enters through the mouth and nostrils; by reversing the pump, air is allowed to enter the cylinder and respiration is thereby imitated. By repeating the onerations a number of times asphyxi ated persons, and particularly those who have been in danger of death by drown ing, have been completely restored. Shopping. There is a practice in dulged in among women, wliich we shall characterize as both frivolous and seinsn, . of entering a store not for the purpose of purchasing articles, but of looking over every material ot goods dispiayeu iaa. They have from time immemorial claimed it as a privilege to criticise, abuse., or or praise whatever is set before them in the stores. The patience of the clerks become exhausted, and a feeling of silent onnteuiDt Is indulged in by them for these thopixr which cannot find vent in words, for they dare not offend. It is a disgrace ful custom, and we trust in time it will be done away with. On in-.riTTT. "RrssE. 1 ouart of milk, C ounces of sugar, 2 ounces of isinglass. Put all into a saucepan on the stove.
