and loud were the thunders of applause,
even the old ladies who disliked Paganini
could not refrain from elapping, and
bouquets thrown By fair and jeweled
hands, fell at the feet of the musician In
a corneroft the hall, next the door. Nicette
was weeping bitterly, the symphony of
the conscript had gone straight to her
heart. At the end of the concert the re-
ceipts were counted; they amounted to
two thousand francs.
"Here. Nicette," said Paganini, "you
have five hundred francs over the sum
required to purchase substitute, they
will pay your bridegroom travelling ex-
penses."
Then, after pause, he counted, but
you will want something wherewith to
begin housekeeping. Take this shoe

Nicette did SO, and received from rich
smateur six thousand francs for Pagan

EFFECTS OF SOLITUDE.--To

with scarcely a friend-this
makes the sadness which,

of the young and the affection

solitude ofthe aged-when, one

fall the sere leaves from the
trees in autumn-What is it to

olation which fills almost to

FEMALE S0CIETY.-We in
dorse every word John Ran
dolph says about ladies' society.
Read what he says, young man,
and act accordingly:
"You know my opinion of fe-
male society. Without it we
should degenerate into brutes.
This observation applies with
tenfold force to young men and
those who are in the prime Of
manhood. For, after a certain
time in life, the literary man
makes a shift IA poor one,
grant, to do without the socie-
ty of ladies. To a young man
nothing is so important as 8
spirit Of devotion (next to his
Creator) to some amiable wo.
man, whose image may occupy
his heart, and guard it from
pollution, which besets it on al.
sides. A man ought to choose
q wife as Mrs. Primrose die
her wedding gown, for qualities
that swear WE'LL" One thing
at least is true-that if matri
mony has its cares, celibac!
has no pleasures. A Newton
or a more eminent scholar, ma,
find enjoyment in mere study
a man of literary taste can re
ceive in books a powerful auxil
larry, but a man must have !;
bosom friend, and children
around him, to cherish AM
support the dreariness of age.

THE TOMATO AS FooD.-A
good medical authority ascribes
to the tomato the following
very important medical quail
tiles:
/. That the tomato is one of
the most powerful aperients of
the liver and other organs;
where calomel is indicated, it
is one of the most effective and
least harmful medical agents
known to the profession.
2. That a chemical extract
will be obtained from it that
will supercede the use of Gallo
mel in the cure of disease.
3. That he has successfully
treated diarrhea with this arti-
Gle alone.
4. That when used as an arti.
Gle of diet, it is almost sover.
eign for dyspepsia and indi
gestion.
5. That it should be con
stantly used for daily food
Either cooked or raw, or in thu

{ "But," saidI, stdoes the idea that there are
so MANY different views of what the Bible
teaches, alter the fact that there Is truth

LIVE For A "PrRPosE. p

LIVE FOR A PURPOSE" -
Final success-the joy of life's
ripe harvest-the goal of our
human hopes. No wise or
thoughtful man will live mere
" for to-day. The pilgrim who
seeks a home is not content to
linger and loiter for the mere
flowers beside his way. The
sower looks to fields white and
ready for the sickle. Wisdom
has regard to the grand issue.
The triumph or the pleasure OF
To-day is transitory. We want
a hope that does not sink with
the setting sun. The true sue
cess in life is that which does
not fail the evening of our days,
or leave them to blight OF
barrenness. We want that
shout of "harvest home" that
will not die into silence with
the fainting breath, but make
the passage of the grave {
whispering gallery where heav
en- and earth talked together
We want something that vii
reach beyond time-beyond thu
things Of the present-some
thing that will take hold OF
eternity.

LIES Lessons.

Before Gfe's stern and solemn truths,
Oh, let us Ineekiy bow;
And clasp the lessons to our hearts,
That She is teaching now.
These truths Jacobs ladder are,
Each one steadfast round,
On which our feet by faith must climb,
To worlds that know no bound.
Cold hearted seIfishness must leave
Her labyrinthine shell,
Ere meek-eyed charity can warm
The dark aud narrow cell
And avarice, with suspicious eye,
Must yield his bags of gold,
Before the pearl of greatest price,
His trembling fingers hold.
Pale envy on success must smile,
Though loss is hers alone,
Eontented, she must cease to wiss,
Her neghbor's goods her own.
The monster jealousy must take
Sweet confidence by hand,
And hatred cold and deadly heart,
Be changed at loves command,
Suspicion must no longer watch,
For notes in others eyes,
And SANDER, with her yenomed tongue,
Tear off her foul disguise.
Revenge, with dark and scowling brow,
And firm compressed lip,
Must, from the cup that peace prepares
With calm forgiveness sip.
And falsehood, in her broidered vest
0frainbow hues bedight,
Must choose truths plain and simple rob
OF pure and spotless white.
In darkness superstition forged
. A chain to fetter mind;
In night she must unloose the links,
The captive must unbind.
And selfesteeming prejudice
That elings to old decay,
Must tear the web that error spun
And let in reasons ray.
And one eyed bigotry, at last,
Must learn to think and feel;
To find his brother, too, can think,
And then together kneel
Oh, Faith, and Hope, and Charity!
Ye pure, We blessed three!
Come, blend our hearts what'er our creed
In perfect unity.
May life's stern lessons not be vain;
Not vain the spirits power,
To loose its glory floods, it waits
Our souls receiving hour.

WOMEN. They are a great mystic
ry. According to Haller, women bear
hunger longer than men; according to
Plutarch, they can resist the effects of
wine better; according to Unger, they
grow older and never bald; according
to Pliny, they are seldom attacked by
lions; ION the contrary, they will run
after lions) and according to Gunter,
they can talk few.
