Among the interesting subjects dis
cussed by eminent scientific men at
the close of the meeting OF the British
Association, in Scotland, was the ques-
ton OF the antiquity OF man.
Sir ]. Lubbock read newspaper on
prehistoric man, i'll which he express
ed the following conclusions-namel
that existing savages are not the de-
scendants of civilized ancestors: that
the primRtive condition of man was
one OF utter barbarism that from this
condition several races have indePend-
emily raised themselves. "These views
follow" he said, from strictly
scientific considerations. We shall not,
however, be the less inclined to adopt
them on account of the cheering pros
poets which they hold out tor the fu-
lure. II the past history of man has
been one OF deterioration, we have but
groundleSs hope of future improve
ment: but, on the other hand, il the
past has been one OF progress, we may
fairly hope that the future will be SO
lOo-that the blessings of civilization
will not only be extended TO 9TH
er countries and other nations,
but that even in our own land they VIII
be rendered more general and more
equable, so that we shall not see before
us always, rs now, multitudes of our
fellow countrymen living the lives OF
savages in our very midst; neither pos
sessing the rough advantages and real,
though course, pleasures o isavage life,
nor yet avuiling themselves of the tar
higher and more noble opportunities
which lie within the rench OF civilized
man."
Sir Roderick Murchison observed
that all his Investigation in geology
convinced him OF n great progression in
the works of nature. The discovery in
geological explorations of implements
which had evidently been manufactured
and used by man., and other relics OF
man had raised up IL new school OF
pre- historic inquiries, of which Sir
John Lubbock might be said to be the
head in the country. The school had
for some years held congresses at diff.
ferent places on the continent OF
Europe, and IL was intended by them
10 have an international pre- historical
congress next year in Grent Britain,
and he thought that no better person
could be selected TO preside over it than
Sir john Lubbock. a-

God help us do our duty, and not shrink.
And trust in Heaven for the rest.

DIsHONEsTY IN TRADE.
BY HENRY WARD BEEcHER.


A man brings a pearl into your shop,
and holding 1t up, says: Il was fish
ing down on the bank, and L found
this thing. don't know whether it is
worth anything or not, but they told
me / could get dollar for it" It ia
worth five hundred dollars! "Oh, yes,"
you say, '1 guess il is worth that. l
will give you dollar for it," And you
take the pearl and give him the dollar;
and you chuckle over it and boast OF
it. You not only do not think that
you have done that which is dishonest,
but you go to your partner, and hold
up the pearl, and eNultingly say, ar
bought it for "a dollar" Apdwh you
go home at night, you rub your hands,
and say: MY dear, had u rare stroke
of luck to-day" "What was it 2'' ask
ed the wife. why, an ignorant fish
erman cane into the shop with a mag
nircent pearl ,:and ! gave him dollar
iOr it; and he went away as tickled as
any man could be-and guess I was
another man that was quite as happy
| as he was ~ Oh, that the woman could
use woman's office! Oh, that she
could give expression to her moral
Judgment Oh, that she could flush

that there could be in every household

tendencies to cheating For 1 call 1t

I suppose this is that whichw feel
when we hunt out old picture stores
and grope round ancient and biackened
cauvasses, hoping that that which we
buy for a mere song, on being washed
and restored, will prove to1be Ra-
Phael, a Titan. or something If
that kind. A hereditary property,
after being handed down from genera
ton TO generation, at last comes into the
hands OF some poor uneducated
woman; and with other things that she
does not understand tue value of, there
is an old, black faced picture. "A man
| goes and looks at 1t, and says to him
self: II should not be surprised II that
was II magnificent Murillo. He sees
that the woman Is unconscious of its
| value, and he takes good care not TO let
her discover that he suspects IL to be
valuable. But whenever he can get II
chance without being observed, he goes
to 1t, and begins to work at one corner
of il, rubbing and scraping it. He
steals in at different times and COu-
tinues the rubbing and scraping, using
/ various turpeptines and varnishes.
| And by and by he begins to see the
I end of tigure-a foot, and he says,
"Sobody painted that fooUthRt was not

to get II home as quickly as possible.
He takes it and fairly rnns down the
street for fear the woman may call him
back. He succeeds in getting itaway
without awakening any suspicion, and
is delighted. He at once puts it into
the hands OF ii restorer, and 1t turns
out to be ii picture worth fifteen hun
dred dollars. And all his life he boasts
of how he got it, and in relating the
circuu stance says: at cost IA ridicu-
lOus sum. 1 paid next to nothing Tor

history. He il Unconscious OF the sim

THE HOPE OF MAN.-Final success
the joy of lifs's ripe harvest-is the goal
of our hopes. No wise or thoughtful
man will live merely for to-day. The
pilgrim who seeks a home is not con-
tent to linger and loiter for the mere
flowers beside his way. The sower
looks onward to fields white and ready
for the sickle. Wisdom has regard To
the grand Issue. The triumph or
pleasure of to-day is transitory. We
want d hope that does not sink with the
setting sun. The true success OF life is
that which does moi fail The evening Of
our days and leave them TO blight or
baTreuness. We want the shout OF
"harvesL home," that will not die into
silence with the falling breath, but
makes the passage to the grave whls-
pering gallery where heaven and earth
talk together.

l have been married twenty-five
years, The first four years before I was
murried, I began farming with 25C
acres, i'll the Blue Grass region, Ken
tucFy. I handled cattle. hogs, sheep
and horses-principally the first two
named-and lived, thought, tolerably
economically spent none of my money
for tobacco in any way ; never betting
a cent or dissipating in any way. and
Yet at the end of the four years I had
made little or no clear money. L then
married young lady eighteen years OF
age-who had never done any house
work or work of any kind, except
make II portion of her own clothes.-
She had never made shirt, drawers,
pants. waistcoat, or even sewed stitch
on a coat, and yet before wethad been
married Il year, she made for-me ever y
one of the articles of clothing named,
and knit numbers of pairs OF socks for
me; yes, and mended divers articles for
me, not excepting an old hat or two.
She had also made butter, sold eggs,
chickens, and other fowls, and veGeta-
bleS to the amount of near 5000 In cash,
at the end of the year, whereas, dn.
ring the four years that L was single, i
had never sold tive cents worth-be-
sides making me purely happy and
contented with and at my home. And
so far as to making OF money, we have
had money clear. of expenses every
year since we have been married, IN
everything that we have undertaken
on the farm, and she has made from
$3.50 10 $500 every year except one, du-
ring the time selling butter, eggs, and
marketing OF different kinds. My

Those who have plenty OF money can
purchase the brains OF an architect to
tell how to construct a house, ii they
have none OF their own; but those who
have but little money must plan their
own houses, perhaps build them. The
popular method of constructing wood
houses, particularly cottages, has not
been by any means the most ecOnom-
ical that can be devised. From thirty to
forty per cent. more lumber has been
used than is necessary, and much labor
expended that is wholly concealed
when the house is completed, and:altO-
gether unnecessary. \ small dwelling
need not be constructed as We would
build warehouse or Il grain elevator.
1t is never subjected to any test OF its
strength and wooden cottages never
fall down so long Hs they have good
foundation and those little repairs
which all houses must have TO stand
the ravaEes of time. No square timber,
and but few scanilings are required
i'll small cottage. Mortises and ten
ons are of no account-indeed they are
a positive detriment, while braces are
equally useless.
The studding Of IA house may Hs well
be made ofinch boards four inches wide
as ofdouble that thickness. These studs
lath Just as we'll AS those Two inches in
thick ness. just SO the floor joists may
be of inch stuff eight inches wide. Hay-
ing laid up the cellar walls OF stone
aud leveled them at the top, boards
should be laid on this wall to form u
sill. The bents of the frame may then
be set up, one after another, aud stay
ed till the siding can be put on. These
bents may, be on the floor, joist, studs,
cross joints for the ceiling and ratters,
all nailed together firmly with cut nails
while lying upon the ground. Every
piece OF siding nailed to this frame
lends to make it tirmer and sitter, and

leased lands about Chicago, and they
are deemed very comfortable, and their
strength and safety are not questioned.
