ONE BY ONE.


One by one the sands are flowing,
One by enc the moments fall
some are coming. some are going,
Do not strive to grasp them all
One by one thy duties wait thee,
Let thy whole strength go to each;
Let no future dreams elate thee,
Learn thou first what those car teach
One by one, bright gifts from heaven,
Joys are sent thee here below
Take them readily when given,
Ready, too, to let them go.
One by one thy griefs shall meet thee
DO not fear an armed band
One will fade as others reach thee,
Shadows passing through the land.
Do not look at life's long sorrow,
See how small each moments pain:
God will help thee for Tomorrow,
Every day begins again.
Every hour that fleets so slowly,
Has its task to do, or bear;
Luminous the crown and holy,
If thou set each gem with care.
Do not inger with regretting.
Or for passing hours despond:
Nor, the daily toll forgetting,
Look too eagerly beyond.
Hours are golden links, Gods token,
Reaching Heaven, one by one:
Take them, lest the chain be broken,
Ere the pilgrimage be done.

E The commercial editor of the
Boston Watchman and Reflector, in
a report of the Lynn shoe market,
notices as a curious fact the differ
ence in shape required by various
sections. "The Southern ladies wear
boots cut very high in the instep; the
ladies of California and the Western
States require broad, wide boot,
while for the trade of the New Eng
land cities a very narrow, delicate
shaped boot is demanded"

A TTENT1ON is respectfully called to
IA the above mentioned Paint, ana the
qualities upon which are based its claims to
superior advantages, established by the most
incontrovertible evidence as to fact, as al
ready fully demonstrated in this ano neigh
boring cities by many of the largest Gas
Companies, Iron Establishments, Iron Safe
Manufacturers, Ship Builders, Painters, Su-
gar Refners, Carriage Manufacturers, Build.
ers, Steamboat and Railroad Companies,
Roofers, etc.
II consists Of seventy-two parts Oxide of
Iron, and twenty eight parts Cement Lime
Stone, in the one hundred pounds.
The Ore from which this Paint is manu-
featured is from vein discovered in Carbon
County, Pa which is overlaid with hydraulic
cement lime stone, through which the waters
of ages have percolated, and which in con-
nection with the Iron, gives to it the peculiar
property of withstanding heat and moisture,
which no other of the so-called metallic
paints possess.
1t has much more body than red or white
lead. 1t is warranted perfectly water and
fire proof, and to Withstand greater heat on
metals, without scaling, than any other paint
in use; hence if is unquestionably the
Best Coating .sver applied on Steam
Pipes and Boilers,
Where it is proren that euen Red Lead Wi
not stand.
1t is a perfect cover for ships bottoms, of
iron or wood: and all kinds of iron, tin,
brick or wood work, out-houses and canvass
coverings. 1t tprevents and arrests the corro-
sion of metals, and is not affected by the ac-
finp Of solt rosaq acids or Ammonia
Ithardens under water. as has been fully
demonstrated by its application to gas hold
ers, by many of the largest Gas companies in
the United States; which companies, have
thoroughly tested its properties as herein
claimed, pronounce in its favor over any 9TH
er paints in the market, even though sold at
double its price.
AS a coating for patterns of iron or wood,
when mixed with shellac, it is much superior
to beeswax, oil. or shellac alone, as has been
proven at the largest foundries in the country.
For patching boilers and making Joints, 1t
is considered superior to red lead, or any 9TH
er preparation.
For cleaning metals 1t takes the place of
crocus, rouge and emery, being better and
cheaper.
This Paint requires no more oil than dry
lead or zinc, and much less than the ordina
ry mineral paints. 1t is free from any wnste
and possesses spreading and covering pow
eruHequaled.
All orders or communications, by mail or
otherwise, will receive prompt attention.

T Speaking of British monopo-
lists of land, cotemporary says
''Mr. Emerson rode on the highway
twenty three miles on the estate of
the Duke Of Cleveland. The Mar
quis of Breadalbane rides out Of his
house 100 miles in straight line to
the sea on his own property. The
Duke of Sutherland owns the County
of Sutherland, stretching across Scot
land from sea to sea. Besides his
other estates, the Duke ofDevonshire
owns $4,000 acres in the County of
Derby, and the Duke of Richmond
10000 at Goodwood, and 100000 at
Gordon Castle. Even the park of
the Duke of Norfolk, at Sussex, is
fifteen miles in circuit. The posses
sions of the Earl of Lonsdale gives
him eight seats in the House of Com
mons. Then these large domains
are growing larger. The Duke of
Bedford's property includes (or in
cluded a mile square in the heart of
London. The Marquis of Westmin-
lister built, within a few years, the
series of squares called Belgrayla.--
How the evil works in Ireland, with
the additional one of English Lords
being the proprietsrs, no one need
be told. The late British Minister,
Lord Palmerston, was reputed to
hold twenty Irish estates, and the
correspondent of the Tribune, in
Mondays issue, states that where
the Fenians were in force in the
County of Tipperary, the country is
mostly the property of England's
present Premier, the Earl of Derby"

nave brought reply to his letter,
not daring to leave lest the detained
epistle might be lost, if sent after
him. In his strange bewilderment
at the unexpected turn of fortunes
wheel, the rush of hope tina. came
with Mabel's image to his heart, the
anxiety to write at once, to commu-
nicate his news, and try his fate; he
had never noticed the unfortunate
date of his important letter. The
foolish challenge of New Years Eve
had been crowded from his memory
by the hurrying change Of events,
and therefore the explanation of her
silence did not occur to him. No,
she did not love him; he had been
foolish, blind, vain, to believe that
all her gentle winning ways meant
more than friendship. Summer heat
was warning aim from Texas, and,
arranging his affairs, he left his
uncle's grave, and the miserable hut,
and started for tour of the States,
previous to an intended trip to Eu-
rope He would travel and forget
this boyish love and folly. 81
1t was Christmas Eve, and Mrs.
Greenway was to give large party,
to which all the upper crust of New
York society were invited. Mrs.
Greenway was to introduce her niece,
and when an old friend requested
permission to bring his sons college
chum, young millionaire, on fly,
ing visit to New York, and about to
start to Europe, Mrs. Greenway
graciously gave the requested per-
mission. .s..,.., -.s,,
So they met Mabel was listlessly
looking over the room full of strange
faces, trying to feel the interest her
aunt expected her in guests, when
john Martyr entered the room.
"Who is that, Aunt Helen2 How
came he here?" she asked in an eager
whisper.
"Where my dear2 Oh that must
be the gentleman Mr.. Lee was telling
me about. Quite romantic story,
and then she told Mabel what she
had believed to be cruel jest.
One part of the letter true. Was
the rest so! The quick bleed flashed
through her veins with suftocating
speed, her breath came in short
gasps, but with nervous self
she stood quiet. They came fer
ward to greet the hostess, and as
John turned from Mrs. Greenway to
acknowledge the introduction to her
niece, his eyes fell upon Mabel.
She did not pause to think whether
it was forward or not. With both
hands extended, her eyes lifted i'm
ploringly, her whole face quivering
with emotion, she said:-
"Oh, John, was,it an April joker"
Ard then the date of his letter
flashed upon his memory. With
quick tact he drew her hand through
his arm, and led her toward the door.
"Where can we be alone?" he
whispered for she trembled violent
ly, while the color was fading from
her face with alarming rapidity.
"In the library. Come"
Well, reader, you and 1 need not
90 too. When, in the early spring,
John Martyr sailed for Europe,
Mabel was by his side, fair, sunny
bride, and the April day that threat
ened to crush the happiness of two
liYes, will do to recall for an old
warning when silver threads
creep in ameng her clustering curls.
