LITTLE FANNY'S PEACH,

Lit" Fanny camo bounding out ir

was sitting undor tho grapevine ar
bour.
"Seo what large, nice poach

chubby hand. "Isn't it rplcndid
Mamma had just two Of thom, an,
sho gavo them to Freddy aud me.
"What did poor mamma do Z" ask
Cd Aunt Rosa, as she went quietly OF
with her crotchcting.
go, mamma doscn't like sucl
things" said littlo Fanny quito scri-
ously.
"Why do you think 80, my dear?
"Becausc she always gives every
thing nice to Freddy and mo. So yor
know she can't like them very mucl
III do not know that at all. 1 ar
sure sho likes ripo, juicy peaches vory
much, and l know that, now sho il
not we'll and strong as she used to bo
they are worry good for her indeed
1t is not because mother don't like
and need such things, Fanny that she
gives them to you, because she loves
her dear littlo children moro than
them, and loves to SEQ thcm pleased
and happy. Do you not think it is q
little selfish to always take her nice
things, cvon when she is so kind as
to give them you? especially when
she needs them 80 much ? Should
not you begin to tako somo thought
for your dear mother ?"
Fanny saw plainly enough the
point of all these remarks, but she
looked hard at her nice yellow peach
before she could make up her mind
10 give it up.
cit will be no uso to ever mako an
offering that is no. done chcerfuIIy.
1t would give mother no pleasure.
But if she really felt her littlo daugh-
ter actually wished her to enjoy tho
peach herself, l know it would give
her moro pleasure than the finest
fruit in the world. 1t would show
that her child was growing moro un-
selfish and moro considerate of tho
happiness than Others"
Tho struggle in Fanny's bosom
was short one, and then, with a
glowing face, she went bounding back
over the path she had come, and fol-
ding up the peach in her mother q
hand, she begged her to eat it right
away.
"lndeed, dear mamma, cannot be
so selfish any more, as to take every.
thing nice from you. Well share
and share aliko'-and this is your
share now" and then sho danced
away again as happy as lark. I
ain suro there WAS pleasant bird
note sounding in her mothers bosom
too.

TIDE MARKS.

1t was low lido when we went
down to Bristol, and tho great gray
rocks stood up. bare, and grim, above
the water; but high up, on all their
sides, was black line, that soomed
dry, though it was far above the wa
ter.
"What makes that black mark on
the rocks?" 1 asked of my friend.
"Oh; that is the tido mark" she
replied. "Every day when tho tide
comes in, tho water rises and rises
until it reaches that line, and in q
great many years it has worn away
tho stone until tho mark is cut into
the rock"

Well, have seen q great many pco-
pie that carried tide marks on their
faces. Right in front of mo was q
pretty little girl, with delicate featur-
es, and pleasant blue eyes. But she
had somo queer little marks ON her
forehead, and / wondered how they
came to bo there, until presently her
mother said:
"Shut down the blind now, Carrie,
tho sun shines right in baby,s face"

in u very peevish voicc.
But hor mother insisted, andC arrio
shut the blind, and turned her face
away from the window. Oh dear
me! what face it was! The blue
eyes were full of frowns instead of
smiles, the pleasant lips wcro drawn
up in ugly pout, and the queer little
marks on her forehead had deepened
into actual wrinkles.
"Poor little girl" thought, show
bad you will feel when yon grow up,
to have your faco marked all over
with tho tides of passion )" for these
evil tcmpers leave their marks just
as surely as the ocean docs, and
have seen many face stamped so
so deeply with self-will and covetous-
ness, that it must carry the mark to
the grave.

ever you give away to bad temper,

LOST TIME.-Lat any man pass an
evening in vacant idleuess, or even in
reading some silly tale, and compare the
state of his mind when he goes to sleep, or
gets up next morning, with its state some
other day, when he has spent few hours
in going through the proofs, by facts and
reasoning, of some OF the great doctrines
in natural science, learning truths wholly
new 10 him, and satisfying himself by
careful examination Of the grounds on
which known truths rest, 80 as to be not
only acquainted with the doctrines them

them, and to prove before others that they
are true, and he will find great difference

CLEANING HOUSE.

Clean bedsteads thoroughly in
March or April, with salt and water
dust them with Persian powder (gon.

with feather to every crack and

remove every thing from them, and
hang tho clothing out to air. Sweep,
dust and scrub them well; fill up
holes, it thero arc any, with a mix
ture of chloride of limo and putty,
dust Persian powder upon all the ledg-
es and into the intersticcs, and you
will be free Of reaches, moths and
bugs for tho summer.
In cleaning rooms the same rule
applies. Clean well, fill up holes and
crevices, dust powder round the ledg-
cs, and moths and mice will disappear
or take refuge in the cellar, whence a
good cat or little chloride of lime
(uscd dry) will soon dislodge them.
There is no need for any house to be

agent, who has been in my employ for
fourteen years, and to whom am indebted
for almost everything I have. He has
charge Of all my business, and I do not
think l could dispense with his services,
without great pecuniary loss. Good land
can be obtained at one dollar and quarter
in greenbacks-land that will yield from
IL to 80 bushels of wheat per acre-and
there is no difficulty in obtaining reliable
laborsrs. This is not country infested
with negroes. 1t belongs to white men,
and Southerners are in the ascendancy:
Independent of the mines, it is the finest
country in the United States. Beets are
as large as a flour sack, csbbages weigh As

bushels Of barley to the acre. Any person
who is willing to work, or has the means
to buy and stock small farm, can make
a good living-the land is so exceedingly
fertile. 1 have farm of $4,000 acres,
and am now preparing 10 plant 1000 o f

will rent land that will yield 80 bushels of
wheat to the acre, for one fifth of the pro.

head, with gang plow, will break five
acres day, which should be done in the
spring, and the wheat planted before the
first rain in the fall. Having no rain du-

IHE WONDERS OF SEED.-Is thero
upon earth'a machine, is there a pal
acc, is there even a city, which con.
ta'ns so much that is wonderful as is
inclosed in a single little seed-one
grain of corn, one small seed of q tree,
picked up, perhaps, BY a sparrow for
her little ones, the smallest Of poppy
or bIuebell, or even one of tho seeds
that are so small that they float about
IN the air, invisible to our eyes? All!
there is world of marvel and bril-
liant beauties hidden in each of these
tiny seeds.
About hundred and fifty years
ago the celebrated Linnaeus, who was
called "the father of botany" rcck-
oned about 5000 different kinds of
plants, and he then thought that the
whole number existing could not ex
ceed 10000. But hundred years af:
ter him, NJ. de Candolle, of Geneva
described forty thousand kinds of
plants. and he supposed it possible
that the number might even amount
to 100000.
Well, have these 100000 kinds of
plants ever failed to bear tho right
kind of seed? Havo they ever de-
ceived us? Has seed of wheat ever
yielded barley, or tho seed of a poppy
grown up into o sunhower? Has q
sycamore trco over sprung from an
acorn, or beech tree from chest
nut? A little bird may carry away
the small seed Of tho sycamo ore in its
bcak to feed its nestlings, aud on tho
way may drop it on the ground. The
tiny seed may spring up and grow
whore it fell unnoticed, a magnificent
tree, under which tho 1ocks of the
valleys, and their shepherds may rest
in tho shados.-Rural Ncw Yorker.
