Ingenious Invention.

The eyes Of one of the brethren at Calvary
Church were recently closed. The trick was
done by q Dutchman. The brother had
house to rent. It was located opposite to
down town graveyard. The brother refused
to rent it to person having children. As the
Dutchman had no less than thirteen of these
expensive blessings, he was slightly nonpuis-
sed. Being himself member of the church,
it was impossible for him to lie. As no church
member ever yet lied. our Teutonic friend did
the next best thing-he came Quaker over the
brother. When making application for the
house, he took with him his entire tribe of oil.

The Love of Beauty.

The love of beauty and refinement belongs
to every true woman She ought to desire, IN
moderation, pretty dresses, and delight in beau
tiful colors and graceful fabrics; she ought to
take certain, not too excessive. pride in her
self. and be solicitous to have ali belonging 10
her well~chosen and in good taste: to care for
the perfect ordering Of her house, and harmo.
ny and fitness of her furniture the cleanliness
of her surroundings. and good style of her ar
engagements: she ought not to like singularity,
either of habit or appearance or be able to
stand out against fashion when fashion has
become custom: she ought to make herself
conspicuous only by the perfection of her taste,
by the grace and harmony of her dress, and
unobtrusive good breeding of her manners: She
ought to set the seal of gentlewoman on every
square inch of her life, and shed the radiance
OF her own beauty and refinement on every
material object about her.-[Demorest's

defeated his old Democratic friends at

ments into the field to defeat them
abroad. He waited not for example or
order, but set the example which all
Northern Governors followed, infused
life and energy even into the national
government, held up the hands of the
President and encouraged his Generals,
neglected not the common soldier, but
made his name immortal by the vigor
and resoluteness with which he sustain
ed the Government and made every cit

it. Thousands of private soldiers to-

THE ssFAT SHEEP.o

Some twenty-five years ago, when I
was pastor of church in -, took
OCCASION one evening to- attend a love-
feast in the Methodist church Of that
place. As is their custom on such oc--
casions, one after another rose, and
gave his Or her experience.
After q time, g. man in humble cir
cumstances, small in stature, and with
very effeminate, squeaking voice, rose
to give in his experience, which was
done in the following manner:
''Bretkren, have been a member of
this Methodist church for many years;
I have seen hard times; my family has
been much afflicted; but l have for the
first time in my life to see my pastor or
any of the trustees of this church, cross
the threshold of my door"
No sooner had be uttered this part of
his experience, than he was interrupted
by one of the trustees, an aged man,
who arose and said in a firm, loud voices:
"My dear brother. you must put the
Devil behind you.
On has taking his seat, the pastor in
charge quickly rose and also replied to
the little man as follows: "My dear
brother, you must remember that we
shepherds are sent to the lost sheep Of
the house Of Israeli
Whereupon the little man rose again,
and, in answer, said in very loud tone:

would have found me long agot'

A new lesson is being given on the
conduct of wives by the comments of
many husbands on the letters of Mrs.
Mcfarland to her husband, which that
lovely being is giving to the licentious
press for publication. This commentary
seems to assume that because Mrs. Nc
Farland addressed him as 'Dear hus-
band,' and subscribed herself his slov-
ing wife, and because she told him Of
her little economies, when she was
obliged to go to her monther's because
he could not support her; and how she
fixed up her old dresses and ribbons,
and made herself the neatest dressed
woman in church, and told him about
their child, and wrote other little en-
dearments-and all this after his wild
Irish temper had given her cause enough
for separation, that therefore she could
not have had any cause, and her story is
false. Mcfarland is publishing all his
wife's letters to him to make such case
II seems then to be the proper course
for a wife, as these husbands view it,
when her husband has treated her cruel-
ly, to address him only in words and
style of elimination and reproach to
make no effort to overcome him by pa
tience and atfectionate treatment, but to
call him monster every time she ad-
dresses him. We suppose these nice
husbands think so, for by this rule they
condemn Mrs. Mcfarland and justify the
sweet Mcfarland. Gaz.

Which washes the soul from its stain,

With earth they shall part with their pain.

And our country long since would have perished

Advertising -.-- Newspapers ".


Tho following ideas of q
correspondent Of the New York Tribune,
about advertising are 50 correct that they
deserve to be disseminated by every means ::
- 10 one who knows, it is surprising how
little faith there still is In the value OF ne vs.
paper advertising and still more surprising
that 1t is claimed that circulars are more
potent than newspapers, when the expert.
ence OF all who have thoroughly tried both
methods has satisfied them that circulars
| rarely initiate a business transaction of any
great magnitude, while the expense of print
lns often exceeds that of advertising in the
ilost valuable mediums offered by news
papers. ALLOW me TO cite case Some
time during the year 1856, while in charge
of the advertising of Broadway house, /
caused the insertion OF a lengthy one-time
announcement in all the editions
OIL me 1f9ouhe st cost
of $500, and was closely questioned BY my
employer as to the wisoom OF so large an
expenditure in one newspaper. He thought
me unreAsonably extravsgant, and would
not be satisfied until l showed him by
actual figures that the mere cost Of the
paper and printing the ordinary circulars
We "ciC thOu using keoltmdteu toE DC many
circulars as knew there were IIiJanes
printed) fully equaled ;;he sum l had paid
you. Thus it WAS seen if | had spent 5000
In circulars, | must still have been at an ad-
dltional expense to have distributed them.
Many q business man is afraid of the ex-
pense of advertising, and yet will pay high
rents for prominent store to exhibit his
wares, end put up extensive signs, and
seem cot 10 know that both are expensive
methods Of advertising. The increases of
men who have made fortunes by advertis-
ing are too numerous to question:; but how
have they done it? By exercising good
| judgement; by knowing how, where and
there. Advertising has become a science,
and unless it's principles are rie,dly adhered
to, large amounts of money may be expend-
ed to no purpose. To advertise successfully
requires more knowledge of the means than
most business men posssssand more thought
than they have time to bestow TO it. Hence
many large houses find it profitable to en-
pioy competent men who make it their spec
iality. | venture the opinion that every
person experienced in advertising will bear
me ont in saying that the business men who
controls the sale Of an article that supplies
an actual want, need not fear to invest
largely in advertising, if he does it with in
telligent tact and discrimina ton a. to tho
use of the best means. Under proper cir
cumstances be cannot fail to realize q for
