LOVE ON.
BY ELIZA COOK.

Love on, love on, the soul MUST have shrine
The rudcst breast must find SOME hallowed spot /;
The God who formed us left no spark divine
In him mwho dwells on earth, yet ioveth not.
Devotion's links compose sacred chain,
OF holy brightness and unmeasured length;
The world with selfish rust and reckless stain
May mar its beauty, but not touch its strength.
Love on, love on,-ay, even though the heart
We fondly build on, proveth like the sand;
Though one by one Faiths corner stone depart,
And even Hopes last pillar fails to stand;
Though we may dread the lips we once believed,
And know their falschood shadows all our days,
Who would not sooner trust and be deceived
Than own the mean, cold spirit that betrays?
Love on, love on, though we may live to see
The dear face whittier than its circng shroud
Though dark and dense the gloom Ofdcath may be,
Affections glory yet shall pierce the cloud
The truest spell that Heaven can give to lore,
The sweetest prospect mercy can bestow,
Is the blessd thought that bids the soul be sure
Twill meet above the thing it loved below.
Love on, love on,-Crcation breathes the words,
Their mystic music even dwes around;
The strain is echoed by unnumbered chords,
The gentlest bosoms yield the fullest sound.
AS flowers keep springing, though their dazzling
bloom
Is oft put forth for worms to feed upon;
So hearts, though wrung by traitors and the tomb,
Shall still be precious and shall still live on.

CAPITAL FOR THE YoUNG.-It is consolation
for all right minded young men in this country,
that though they may not be able to command
as much pecuniary capital as they would wish
to commence business themselves yet there is
moral capital which they can have, that will
weigh as much as money with people whose
opinion is worth having. And it does not take
great while TO accumulate a respectable am
cunt of this capital. 1t consists in truth, hon
esty and integrity; to which may be added de-
cision, frmness, courage and perseverance, -
With these qualities there are few obstacles
which may not be overcome, Friends spring
up and surround such young man almost as if
by magic. Confidence flows out to him, and
business accumulates on his hands faster than
he can ask it, And in a few short years such a
young man is far in advance of many who start
ed with him, having equal talents and larger Pc
cuniary means; ere long our young friends
stand foremost, the honored, trusted and loved.
Would that we could induce every youthful
reader to commence life on the principle that
the moral capital is the main thing after all!

A BEAUTIFUL PAssAGE.-The following
beautiful passage closes Horace Greeley's ora
tion, delivered at the Indiana State Fair:
AS for me, long tossed on the stormiest
waves of doubtful conflict and ardnous endeay-
ors, have begun to feel, since the shades Of
forty years fell upon me, the weary tempest
driven voyagers' longing for land, the wander-
er's yearning for the hamlet, where in childhood
he nestled by his mothers knee and was sooth-
ed to sleep on her breast. The sober down-hill
of life dispes many illusions while it developes
or strengthens within us the attachment per-
haps long-smothered or overlaid, that dear hut,
our home, and so |, in the sober afternoon Of
life, when its sun, if not high, is still warm,
have bought me q few acres of land, in the
broad, still country, and bearing thither, my
household treasures, have resolved to steal from
the city's labors and anxieties at least one day
in each week, wherein to revive as farmer the
memories Of my childhood's humble home
And already realize that the experiment can
not cost as much as it is worth. Already find
in that days quiet an antidote and a soace for
the feverish, fostering care of the weeks which
environ it. Already my brook murmurs a sooth-
ing evening song to my burning, throbbng
brain and my trees, gently stirred by the fresh
breezes, whisper to my spirit something of their
own quiet strength and patient trust in God
And thus do family realize, but for brief and
fitting day, the serene Joy which shall irradiate
the Farmers vocation, when fuller and truer
Education shall have refined and chastened his
animal cravings, and when Science shall have
endowed him with her treasures redeeming La
Dor from drudgery, while quadrupling its eff
cheney, and crowning with beauty and plenty our
beauteous, beneficent Earth"

QUAKER ToAsT-This from me and mine to
to thee and thine. wish when thou and thine
come to see me and mine, that me and mine
will treat thee and thine as kindly as thou and
thine have treated me and mine.
This is new version of the old compliment
which runs somewhat after this wise:
wish thee and thy folks loved me and my
folks, as well as me and my folks love thee and
thy folks. For sure, there never was folks,
since folks was folks that ever loved folks half
so well as me and my folks love thee and thy
folks.

QUEER NAMES OF TowNs.-lt has often been
objected to our people that they are too fond of
going to the old world for the names of their
towns. In every part of the country almost,
we have Londons Parises, Romes, &c. &C.
California however, has had the independence to
rely OH her own inventive genius for devising
names for her thousand children, and certainly
the appelations are distinctive enough in many
cases. The recent election has brought to light
such localities as Whiskey creek, Jackass Gulch,
Humbug City, One Horse Town, One Mule
Town, Drunkard's Bar, Murderer's Bar, Shirt

become so oblivious, through occupation, men,

though he has set three different days upon
which to be married, he has upon each occasion,

NAPoLEoNs LAST YEAR.-AbOut a year be-
fore his death sudden change took place in the
daily habits Of Napoleon. His better angel had
whispered into his ear, and carried solace and
contentment to his heart. He no longer seclu-
ded himself from the world. He went among
his fellows as a man should mix with them and
as an Emperor might. Thereis work going on
in his garden. The gardeners are very busy, es-
pecaly the Chnese--an industrious race. Ma
poleon takes his place among them. he uses
his spade with the rest, and the children of the
Count Bertrand are playing about him while he
digs. Fowls trespass on the grounds, and make
free with the favorite fiower-beds. The Impe-
rial gardner sends for his gun, shoots the tres
passers dead, and then proceeds with his work
--superintendng the raising Of sod walls in
this place, the formation Of reservoirs in anoth-
er. Vis!Ons.Of the old time came across him
while he labors, and he traces out on the ground
Of his little garden, plans and field work for de-
fensive operations to the edifcation of his off,
GERS and attendants, who group about him as
he explains his ideas. Day after day, for a brief
but happy interval the gardening continues
Every man in the house has spade in his hand,
and Napoleon is very busy putting in seeds
He breakfasts in his garden, sends messages to
the orderly officer for carts, shovels and spades,
and when the orderly officer looks in late in the
evening, he finds the great man still busy with
his innocent and healthy occupation, and be sure
he will in good time next morning, for the said
officer writes to the Governor, in his daily re-
port of the 9th of May, 1920" General Bona
parte hus got large bell which he rings, and
Immediately upon this signal, all the servants
turn out to work in the gardens" In less than
year after this sentence was written, Napoleon
died. Where he was first buried, and where he
now lies, the world knows. Had he maintain
ed, during the whole six years of his tanish-
ment, the dignifed and simple bearing which he
assumed for few weeks in his little garden,
Mr.. Forsyth's book would not have been neces-
sary, and there would have been a sanctity in
our recollection of the last days of the still i'm.
mortal Napoleon. London Times.

A Stick TAKEN FRoMA HoRsE's EYE.-A few
days since large piece ofwood was taken from
horses eye, in this village, which had lodged in
there for thirty-seren months The horse be-
longed to Warren Tanner. The piece of wood
was three.cornercd and tapering like the point
of a file, and measured 1t inches long and aver
aged one inch around. Thirty-seven months
ago it entered the outer corner of the eye, and
in this time it has travelled along the roof of the
socket quite around to the bottom ofthe socket,
and there. created arunning sore, which led to its
detection and extraction.
1t must have been pleasant sensation to the
horse, that stick of wood rubbing round the ball
of his eye. But then he had no business to be
