A FIDGETY WIFE.

1t is just as you say, neighbor Green,
A treasure indeed is my wife
Such another for hustle and work,
never have found in ny life.
But then she keeps every one else
AS busy as birds on the wing;
There is never a moment for rest,
She is such a Fdgety thing.
She makes the best bread in the town,
Her pies are perfect delight,
Her coffee a rich golden brown,
Her crullers and puddings just right,
But then, while l eat them she tells
OF the care and the worry they bring,
OF the martyr-likc toll she endures,
Oh, she's such fidgety thing
NY house is as neat as pin.
You should see how the doorhandles shine;
And all of the soft-cushioned chairs
And nicely swept carpets are mine.
But then she so frets at the dust,
At "a fly, at straw, at a string,
That stay out of doors all can,
She is such fdgety thing.
She doctors the neighbors-oh yes
If "a child has the measles Group.
She is there with her safIrons and squills,
Her dainty made gruels and soup.
But then she insists on her right
To physic my blood in the spring;
And She takes the whole charge of my pile,
oh, she's such tidgety thing!
She knits all my stockings herself,
My shirts are bleached white as the snow
NV old clothes look better than new,
Yet daily more threadbare they grow.
But then if morsel of lint
Or dust to my trowsers should cling,
Pm sure of one sermon at least,
She is such fidgety thing.
You hear of a spirit so meek,
So meek that it never opposes,
Its own it dares never to speak
Alas am meeker than Moses.
But then am not recOnciled
The subordinate music to sing;
1 submit to get rid of row,
She is such fdgety thing.
It's just as you say, neighbor Green,
treasure to me has been given:
But sometimes | fain would be glad
TO lay up my treasure in heaven.
But then every life has its cross
Most pleasures on earth have their sting,
She's a treasure, know neighbor Green,
But she's such 1idgety thing.

The "Fat Contributor has been in.
vestigating the chignon panic, and pub
fishes the following cases which have
been brought to his notice.
FROM A BEREAvED PARENT.
You desire me to inform you concer-
ing the condition of my daughters
chignon. Alas, have no daughter :
She disappeared last night. She was
last seen going to her 70 ON to dress for
a aparty. When her escort arrived with
carriage, and a servant went to call
her, the room was found to be vacant.
There were indications of asevere strug
gle about the room, the furniture being
broken, tables overturned, ETC. Scat
tered over the carpet were curious look
ing fragments, which upon microscopic
examination, proved to be the lacerated
and bleeding limbs ofpedtcu1i. There
is every reason to believe that she has
been carried off by the animals which
inhabited her chignon. She had usually
been lively Especially about the head, J
for several days past, because hel
mother had bought her the newest and
most fashionable chignon-and now
sheis quite carried away with it. Yours,
i'll afiliction, BEREAYED PARENT.
STATEMENT OF HoUsEKEEPER.
A servant girl Of mine has worn a
chignon Of late. When I read about
things living in them I ordered her to
burn 1t up, but she besought me, with
tears in her eyes, to allow her to retain
it. was puzzled to know.why she
was SO anxious to keep it until to day,
when l discovered that it was great
help to her. The pediculi in it were so
large and strong that they were enabled
to assist her in doing the house work
A well-developed and particularly
tough old fellow had been doing our
cooking for week, and others were
skillful in sweeping and making nr
beds. They are exceedingly docile and
Obedient, and anxious to get a-hedt fol
themselves. HoUsEKFEPER.
FROM A FREQUENT FATHER.
Last week my wife bought each O.
the girls new chignon, Since ther
we have know no'peace We have hearG
strange noises every night, and have
thought the house was haunted. The
door bell has been rung, the piano has
been played, after all were in bed arti
cles of furniture have been thrown
about the room, and diabolical sounds
have been heard from garnet to cellar
Last night, when those sounds began
I took lantern and a microscope, de
termined to find out the cause
found that the cause of all this mischie
was the pedicui from my daughters
waterfalls. They are carried about il
luxurious ease on the heads of my girl:
during the day, and at night they ge
out on a frolic. You never saw sucl
impudence. After had gone back t.
bed a large delegation of them come tt
my bedside, and demanded the key tc
the wine cellar! They said they wan
ted to make night of it. Alas! wha
shall do? Our girls won't give III
the chignon, nor the pedicuk either.

that come within the provisions of the
Asylum and report the name, age, ser,
name of Mother, if living. Report only
those who are willing to be sent to the
Asylum. The names of the Subscribers
must be witten distinctly, and the Subscrip-
ton Book carefully preserved. IF the
Agents would ask the ministers to present
the cause to their congregations at Church,
it would help much in the Canvass. Physi-
clans could assist also by presenting the
cause in the limits of their practice.
When the Agent cannot be actively en-
gagged in the work herself, she should get
some one to help her. The district must be
canYassed as soon as possible. The entire
success of the Asylum depends upon the
success of the Agents in the canvass of their
districts. 1t is hoped they will use their
utmost endeavors to make their subscription
