THERE ARE NO GRAVES THERE!
BY NJ. q. SLEEPER.

| Late in the afternoon Of a beautiful sum
mer day, entered quiet grave yard
where slept one Of my dearest friends. |
occupied the brow Of a hill, which, with
many q knoll and graceful undulation slop-
ed to the green meadow, watered BY win
ding stream, now catching, at its repeated
curves, the rays of the setting sun. yl
On the left was pleasant wood where
the sturdy pine and fruit bearing beach con-
cealed narrow paths to cool coves and mos
sy banks. yag \. 9., e8.. sa.,
White birches and the tremulous aspen,
with the sweet scented willow grew upon
the right, and, from beyond, rose the curl
ing smoke from the cottage homes. A ro-
bin sang its song of love and praise SPAR
row passed me bearing food for its little
progeny, and the chirp Of the merry grass
hopper mingled with the hum of hundreds
Of fitting insects +.
" But for this peace, breathing scene | had
no greeting. The wild storm, thunder,
and rain, and darkness, had seemed far more
welcome, and yielding utterly to my grief,
threw myself upon the sod. | took no
heed Of time, but many minutes had passed
when child approached me. She looked
on me tenderly for an instant, and then lay
ing one hand upon my arm and raising the
other towards heaven, said earnestly n
"There are no graves there"
There was something almost seraphic in
the countenance Of the child, d power of
earth in quick and undoubting faith. My
eye sought the blue depths towards which
she pointed, my heart bounded towards the
infinite. All the representations Of the Cos
pei, adapted as they are to soothe and cheer,
came to me so vivid, so truthful, so full of
meaning, that they absorbed my whole soul.
The abundant promises seemed to glow
with the hues of that heaven from whence
they came AT once perceived the self
ishness of my sorrow, and kneeling, thank
ed God that He had transferred my loved
one to Himself ~..' ...ti -.''
Often, since then, Ihave looked upon the
resting places of my kindred; often, has
there come over me sense of utter hope
less desolation; often has an agony like that
Of death, turned to bitterness the continued
blessings of my lot. Yet, when the first
burst Of grief has passed, ! see again that
lovely child, and hear the soul-cheering as
surance-~ as@a s#M saa H3 H

DRESS AND DEMEANOR OF
saRt" LADIES. na tes u

II slovenness is culpable in man. how
utterly inexcusable il is in woman
No female that has regard for herself, or
any respect for the society 10 which she
moves, will be neglectful of her personal
appearance. It is true there is danger Of rum
ming into the opposite extreme--of attach
ing much importance and giving too much
time to dress; bnt it is easy to hit an hap
py medium in this respect, and do perfect
justice to the toilet at the same time, that
no moral, social, or intellectual duty is
sighted. There are few members of the
sex so deficient in comliness Of face or f.
gure, that an appropriate and artist like
style of dress, they may not appear 10 advan-
taage to all capable of appreciatipg the agree
able and the beautiful in art To be ap-
propriate it does not follow that dress
need be extravagant, There is q nameless
charm about their style Of dress with some
women, which seems part Of their char
acter, it is so indescribable. 1t is not in
costliness Of material nor in brilliancy Of
colors, but in the felicity Of adoption Of
color, style and manufacture. The dress
seems as naturally part of them as their
hair. We feel that other costume would
be inappropriate. The "Cynthia, of the min
utes'' seems to have lent her zone. i, A lady
should study the style Of dress most ap-
propriate and becoming to her, and follow
it, uninfuenced by the paltry ambition of
leading of a fashion, or Haunting in . ex
pensive robes We alIknow that different
colors suits different compilations, and DIFF
ferent styles, different figures. Every lady
should have that degree Of artificial cultiva-
ton 10 be ableto decide for herself on the
fashion more suitable to her person. In
