standard Of Prince Alcohol. Some Of the
hand.bills ran thus:-"Wine is mocker

Perseverance Rewarded.

A young peasant one day returning to
his village from Sion, heavy fall of snow
about the beginning of October, met him
on his toilsome ascent: he reached al
length, rock from which he could see
his chalet. but in its stead nothing appear
ed but frightful mass of snow heaps, be-
meath which his house, his wife. and their
only child were doubtless engulphed A,
first he was overwhelmed with despair. and
threw himself on the rocks IN state OF
stupor; but presently the light of hope
broke upon him-he started up, and rush

his neighbors, whose assistance he en-
treated; several others joined them, and

gaging the devoted from the overwhelm-
ing wreck. 1t required both strength and
resolution, and the friends worked till
night with ardor. The young man was
then left alone; he continued to labor with
out ceasing. and at day break his com
panions returned; the second day ended
without result bot despair gave the hus-
band fresh vigor in spite of his fearful dis
appointment. third day he toiIed on.
and at last. to his unspeaka5le rapture, he
discovered the roof Of his dwelling. and
through an aperture for the smoke he per-
ceived his wife sitting by the light OF "a
lamp watching the infant, who was being
at that moment suckeled by goat. Ills
cries Of JOY We're soon responded to. and
the story OF deliverance was soon told

The Dutch Blacksmith.

The Colonel went away. and returning
at the appointed time, found the Dutch
man still at work on his horse. He was
very wroth when he saw the state Of af
fairs; but he went away again with the
promise that in .'vun half hour. longer the
shoes would be set After dinner he made
his appearance again at the shop, and
asked, "what was to pay
Pour shillings."
"Four shillings! Ii is an imposition!
never paid over shilling for setting a shoe

"Wery WE'LL" nodded Mynheer. "Vun
