When MIIl They Mesh

There is a curious duel now pend.
ing in Boston, which began ten years
ago. Mr.. A., a bachelor, chal-
lenged Mr.. B., a married man
with one child, who replied the con
.ditions were not equal--that he must
necessarily put more al risk with his
lie than the other, he declined. A
year after, he received challenge
from Mr. A., who stated that he, too,
had now a wife and child, and he sup
posed, therefore, the objection of Mr.,
b. was no. valid. Dir. B. replied
that he now had two children, conse
quently the inequality still existed -
The next year Mr., A. renews his chal.
lenge, having now two children also;
but his adversary had three. The
matter when last heard from was still
going on, tho number being six to
seven, and tho challenge yearly re.
newed.

A Good Stnry.

A late Parkersburg paper says that
several members of the West Virgin
in Legislature took the cars at Graf
ton late on the evening OF the 10Th
ult for Wheeling, and among the
NUMBER was Mr.. 6 l., of some " hat
large proportions physically, and a
Mr.. ID. Of proportional undersize.---
These two--the stalwart Mr., G. and
the smooth faced little Mr. D.--took
the berth together, it seems, in a
sleeping car. The little man laid be-
hind and the good-natured, waggish
Mr.. g. before. Mr.. d. soon was
sleeping and snoring furionsly. Mr..
G., more restless under his legislative
burdens, soon arose, and was sitting
by the stove, when an elderly lady
came aboard and desired q sleeping
berth "All right, madam" said Mr..
G., I took berth with my son, and
you can occupy nay place in that berth
where my little boy Is sleeping. -
Taking G.. ut his word, the lady dis
robed. and laid down with the boy.
After quiet repose of some time,
the boy, Mr. D., became restless from
some cause, and began to kick around
to the annoyance of the Old lady.
So in II maternal manner she patted
the boy on the back and said: Lie
still, sonny; pa said l might sleep
with you" "Who are you p said
the Legislator, "Im no boy ! I'm 4
member of the West Virginia Legis-
lature !" 1t ia said the old lady
swooned.

DO II With Thy Might.

terminedly, ,bravely sticking, growing,
living to a thing until it is fairly ac-
eomplished. In short, yon must
carry thing through, II you want to
be anybody or anything. No matter
if it does cost you the pleasure, tho
society, the thousand pearly gratif-
cations of life. No matter for these.
Stick to the thing aud carry 1t chro'.
Believe you were made FOR the matter,
and that no one else can do it, Put
forth your whole energies. Stir,
wake, electrify yourself, and 60 forth
to the task. Only once learn to car
ry thing through in all its complete
ness and proportion, and yon will be-
come hero. You will think better
of yourself--others will think better
OF you. OF course they viii. The
world, in its very heart, admires the
stern, determined doer. 1t sees ia

i,s richest treasure. Drive right
along, then, in whatever you under
take. Consider yourself amply SUM-
cient for the deed. You'll be sue
cessful--never fear. ...-.... ..
