French GulIibiIity.

The last hoax of the season Is one
which some .tareev has just played Off
upon the Pays newspaper. That journal
gravely publishes u letter, from the south
of France, recounting how young musi-
clan, of wonderful power, had just ar
rived from the United States. (Some-
how the United States always figure in
tales of the extraordinarily The '.in.
strument' upon which this genius played,
according TO the Pays correspondent, was
cargo Of ducks, of various sizes and de-
scriptions. An electric wire was attached
to each sgosling" and the "music' was
produced by battery, operated upon in
such a manner as to make the ducks
9',dck forth the notes The letter closed
with the announcement that, on the pre-
vious night, the ducks had broken out Of
their cage, attacked their eccentric pro-
prietor in his bed, and eaten him up alive
This ridiculous story is now going the
rounds Of the French press.

Young man, stick to your business, 1t
may be you have mistaken your calling /;
If so, find it out us quick us possible and
change it; but don't let any uneasy de-
sire to get along fast, or dislike of your
honest calling, lead you to abandon it,
Have some honest occupation, and then
stuck TO it if you are sticking type, stick
away at them; if you are at law, hold
fast to that profession; pursue the busi-
ness you have chosen, persistently, in
duslriously and hopefully, and if there is
anything of you, it will appear and turn
to account in that as well or better than in
any other calling; only if you are u loaf
cr, forsake that line of life as speedily as
possible; for the longer you stick TO it,
the worse it will "sticli" you.

MISCELLANE NEOUS.
stick To Your Business.

There is nothing which should be more
frequently impressed upon the minds of
young men than the importance of steadi-
ly pursuing some one business. The FREE
quent changing from one employment to
another is one of the most common errors
committed, and to it may be traced more
than half the failures of men in business,
and much of the discomfort and disap-
pointment that render life uncomfortable.
1t is very common thing for man to
be dissatisfied with his business, and to
desire to change ii for some other, and
what seems to him will prove more lu-
crative employment; but in nine cases
out of ten it is a mistake. Look round
you, and you will find among your ac-
quaintances abundant verifcation of our
assertion.
Here is young man who commenced
life as mechanic but from some cause
imagined that ne ought to have been a
doctor, and, after hasty and shallow
preparation, has taken up the saddle-bags
only to find that work is still work, and
that his patients are no more profitable
than his workbench, and the occupation
not a whit more agreeable.
Here are two young men, clerks one
of them is content, when his first term of
service is over, TO continue clerk till
he shall have saved enough to commence
business on his own account the other
can't wait, but starts of without capital,
and with limited experience, and brings
up after few years in a court of insol-
vency, while his former comrade, by pa
tent perseverance, comes out at last with
a fortune.
That young lawyer who became dis
heartened because briefs and cases did
not crowd upon him while he was yet re-
dolent of calf-bound volumes, and had
small use for red tape, who concluded that
he had mistaken his calling, and so
plunged into politics, finally settled down
into the character of a middling pettifog-
ger, scrambling for his daily bread.
There is an honest farmer who has
toiIed few years, got his farm paid for,
but does not grow rich very rapidly, as
much for lack of contentment mingled
with his industry as anything, though he
is not aware of it-he hears the wonder
ful stories of California, and how fortunes
may be had for the trouble of picking
them up; mortgages his farm to raise
money, goes away to the land of gold.
and, after many months of hard toll,
comes home to commence again at the
bottom of the bill for more weary and
less successful climbing up again.
Mark the men in every community
who are notorious for ability and equally
notorious for never getting ahead, and
you will usually find them to be those
who never stick TO any one business long,
bat are always forsaking their occupation
just when it begins to be profitable.

Acting Upon Principle.

Some years ago, during sojourn in
Montgomery, ii was the writer's good for
tune to be numbered among the friends of
Colonel G. The olonel was one of those
in whose breast the milk of human kind.
ness overaowed. 1t was his misfortune
that he was never able to say no. And
to so great an extent was this weakness
carried, that it had become a notorious
fact that the colonel would lend money TO
any one on the first asking, rather than
refuse it. But so often had his good ma
ture been imposed on, that he had estab-
lished a rule for his own government,
which he was always careful to explain to
applicants for funds, and usually did so
after the following style:
want ten, do youl Well, you can
have it. But when can you pay il back
You see, I've got great deal of money
loaned out around, and | like to keep il
circulating, but like to know Just about
the time when it's going to get around
back 10 me, and | hate to be disappointed.
A man that disappoints me once, never
gets any more money from me-
Thus 1t became notorious that Colonel
G. would lend money to any one on the
first asking, and if they were prompt in
repayment, they could take him for his
piles" at least so it was supposed. +
Acting upon this supposition, one K. a
notorious gambler, applied to the colonel
one day, for one hundred dollars, rather
doubtful of his success, however. G.. was
staggered, but catching his breath, and
overcome by good nature, he replied:
Want a hundred l--certainly you can
have it but when will you pay me back
| always want to know when my money
is coming in, as may want to use it else
where. Fix your own day, but be prompt
on the day you fix for man who dis
appoints me once never gets any more
money from me!
X. took the money, promising to return
it on the following Wednesday, and, punc-
tual to the day and hour, he did return il,
borrowing from all his friends to enable
him to do so. According to general sup
position, his credit was thereby opened
with q. to any extent, and two weeks af-
ter, his friends pressing for repayment,
and wanting "stake" for himself, he ap-
piled boldly to G., nothing doubling his
success.
Colonel, let's have couple of hum
dred for a day or so, will you 2

POETRY.
Speak Gently.

Speak gently---it is better far
To rule by love than fear;
Speak gently, let not harsh words mar
The good we might do here.
Speak gently-love should whisper low
To friends when faults we find;
Gently let truthful accents flow,
Anection's voice is kind.
Speak gently to the little child,
Its love be sure to gain;
Teach it in accents soft and mild,
1t may not long remain.
Speak gently to the young, for they
Will have enough to bear;
Pass through this life as best they may,
lis full of anxious care.
Speak gently to The aged one,
Grieve not the care-worn heart;
The sands of life are nearly run
Let such in peace depart.
Speak gently, kindly to the poor,
Let no harsh tone be heard;
They have enough they must endure,
Without an unkind word.
Speak gently to the erring-know
That thou art also man;
Perchance unkindness drove them so;
o, win them back again.
Speak gently, for tits like the Lord,
Whose accents, meek and mild,
Bespoke him as the Son of God,
The gracious holy child.
Washed in his blood, redeemed to life,
The family of heaven, .,
Flee from all anger, wrath, and strife,
Forgive as they re forgiven.

Gone 10 Dinner.

Gone to dinner. Back in fifteen min

You gormandizer! you ostrich you

wizzled, misunderstanding old thing You
poor, irritable, touchy, snappish fellow!
My gobbling friend, eating is not a
process whose operations and results are
wholly confined within the stomach, as
flesh is put to seethe or soak within an
iron pot. 1t tells upon muscles and vitals,
and brain and nerves--upon mind and
soul. Fifteen minutes! Fifteen minutes
is enough TO eat one cracker in and 70
drink glass of water; and see the mass
of victuals that you are pitch-forling into
your countenance, as il you thought a
harpy was watching TO snatch Il froui you.
How dare you bolt those chunks Of
meat all soaked with gravy" and that
greasy, sodden pie, and hot cakes, and
kissing, mad-colored coffee, and then,
while your miserable, over-worked old
stomach is calling for all the disposible
nervous energy of your system to help ID
drudge in its tyrant's task, jumping head.
long back into your dark, close counting
room and demand that same nervous en-
ergy from the same source to engineer
your brains and eyes in absorbing exer-

dare you? .,.. s-s..,-.., ...E, ...s.
Well, poor fellow, it's of no use to,
scold at you, after all. Pity is much
more appropriate to your sad case. Who
would be such a juiceless, dirt-complex-3

or all everybody's else ? l, is but MAIN,
