Words to be Pondered.

In his recent speech to the people
of st. Louis, Carl Schurz uttered these
memorable words, which we commend
to the consideration of every reader
on this anniversary: "1 consider it
of the most pressing needs of our
days that we should return to the
sound practice of constitutional gov.
eminent. The safeguards of our COM
mon rights and liberties contained in
the constitution are too sacred and
valuable a boon to be permanently
je~opardized in providing for a passing
emergency. 1t is time the American
people open their eyes to the dan
gerous character of this tendency, and
that neither a great name nor an OBJ
ject appealing to our sympathies should
be permitted to disguise it. AS for
1 have. seen the workings of ire
sponsible power and personal govern
ment in other countries, and 1 may
assure my constituents that while l am
a citizen of this republic 1 shall strug-
gle to the last gasp against its intro
luction here"

The Huntington Route" so-called,
lies right in the path ofthe Star of En-
pire. II runs almost Immediately in
the center of the great westward move
ment of emigration. Crossing Iii.
nois and Iowa, it strikes the Missouri
river at three points.
These three points are the gateways
into three great sections of the trans
Missouri region.
The Northern gate is Omaha, where
the great Pacific road will take you to
the land of gold and grapes, sunny
mountains, and perpetual summer.
The middle gate is Plattsmouth,
which opens npon the south half of
Nebraska, south of the Platte river, a
region unsurpassed on the continent
for agriculture and grazing. Just here
are the B. g. M. Railroad lands, con-
corning which Geo. S. Harris, the
land officer at Burlington, Iowa, can
give you all information, and in the
heart of them is Lincoln, the State
Capital and present terminus of the
road.
The Southern gate leads to Kansas,
by connections with the ST. Joe Road
at Hamburg, running direct to St.
Joe and Kansas City.
The trains of the Burlington run
smoothly and safely, and make all
connections. Itruns the best of coach

Journey for the journeys sake alone,

lands, where you can buy on ten years
credit, and at a low price. 1y41

WomanlY ModestY.

Man loves the mysterious. A
cloudless sky, the full-blown rose
leaves him unmoved; but the violet
which hides its blushing beauties
behind the bush; The moon when
she emerges from behind cloud
are to him sources of inspiration
and pleasure. Modesty is to mark
what shade is to figure in painting
it gives to it beldness and promi
nence. Nothing adds more to fe,
male beauty than modesty; it sheds
around the countenance halo Of
light which is borrowed from vir
tue. Botanists have given the rosy
hue which tinges the cup o. the
white rose the name of ''maider
blush" This pure and delicate hue
is the only paint Christian virgins
should use, is the richest ornament
A woman without modesty is like 6
faded flower diffusing an unwhole
some odor, which the prudent gar
dener will throw from him. Hel
d destiny is melancholy, for it termi
mates in shame and repentance
Beauty passes like the flowers O.
the albo, which blooms and dies
in a few hours, but modesty give:
the female charms which supple:
the place of the transitory FRESHNESS:
of youth.

Bright Sundays.

Let it rain every other day in the
week, so that it be pleasant on Sun
day. Then let the sky be blue,
and the sea. Then let the birds
sing, and the little children. Then
let the green fields be full of bios
SONS, and let no ascetic say it is
wicked to pluck them. Then let
the sunlight into your houses, place
flowers ON your table, have an extra
sweet morsel for little mouths; and
a pleasant word for everybody. l
had almost said do anything but
make the day one of gloom. Do
anything that a man or woman may
do, and look the pure stars in the
face, but don't groan; don't set back
the chairs against the wall; don't
bring out dry theological books, for
young folks to read, written by Ii
brary men, who never so much as
peeped into one of the windows of
a warm heart. Don't fold your
hands over your Sunday suit, and
look the ceiling out of countenance.
Don't bribe your children to read
six chapters in the bible; don't
frown if they smile; don't let your
young people long for the going
down Of the Sabbath sun, counting
the tardy minutes, like restless
prisoner, waiting his release. Oh,
anything but that; as you love truth
above hypocrisy; as you love honor
and obedience beyond secret license;
as you dread the shadow of moral
death on those bright, young faces,
which / am sure you loye.-Fanny

A Domestic Story.

An editor says: An aunt Of
ours concluded to try the effect
of a pleasant smile and a kind
word upon her husband when he
returned from his work. She had
read how a home should be pleas
ant, and the wife should always
meet her husband with a joyful
smile. The success she had is
best given in the shape Of the
dialogue.
Enter husband, almost exhaus-
ted, and very hungry withal;
throws his hat on the floor and
drops heavily into a scat. Wife
preparing tea, looks up with a
smile, and is so glad to see him. ]
Wife-Well, my dear, it is SO
nice to have you here at meal
time. A long smile.
Husband-Yes, l suppose SO.
Wife-How has your bust
ness prospered to-day? [Another
smile.
Husband-About $3.50.
Wife-Come, my dear, supper
is ready; let me draw your chair.
I Another smile.
Husband, grufiy-I am too
tired to stir. Wait till l warm my
feet.
Wife-Do as you choose, my
dear. Another sweet smile.
Husband Look o'here, old
woman; before any more fuss is
made about it, l should like to
know what you are grinning at.
Aunt sighed and relinquished
her sweet smiles from that day.
Uncle was not one of the roman
tic sort, and didn't understand
such things.

Harmonious Keys.

God knows what keys in the hui
man soul to touch in order to draw
out its sweetest and most pefect har-
monies. They may be in the minor
strains of sadness and sorrow; they
maybe in the loftier notes of joy
and giadness. God knows where
the melodies of nature are, and what
discipline will call them forth.
Some plaintive songs must walk in
lowlyl lyales of life's weary way;
others in loftier hymns, shall sing
nothing but joy as they tread the
mountain tops of life; but they all
unite without discord or jar, as the
ascending anthem of loving and be-
lieveing heart finds its. way into the
chorus of the redeemed in heaven.
