the loving but untliinking wife sees aud
feels the growing change. Gathering over
her like black cloud darkening the sun
shine oflier early summer, comes the dis
mdl thought that she may be the misera-
bleNictim of loveless marriage. AT last,
perhaps, in moment of less virtue or un-
usual irritability, the husband, by word or
deed, sights some little personal attention,
or neglects one of the established ceremo-
nies of love. The poor wife feels as if she
could not survive 1t. IL is n poisoned ar
row in her tender heart !; a wound that may
need long years to heal. She Is disappoint-
ed her love is not appreciated and in se-
cret she gricves over u hidden sorrow. If
she is foolish enough to complain, and to
claim as duty what to be real or desira-
bic must be purely spontaneous-and this
is the folly Of too many-she makes u ruin
GUS mistake. The good man has not left
off loving her. True, the fever is no longer
on him; but he loves her with all his
heart in his own quiet way. Is she not his
wife, secure in his affection his trusted,
bosom friend-and what more would she
have When she accuses him of GOODNESS
and neglect, he is vcxed, and does not like
it. If she continue the annoyance she will
make herself dlsagreeable, and may, when
it is too late, discover the awful difference

her husbands love.
But let not the prosecuted husband be
too hard let him remember that he may
be more or less to blame that his importu-
nate wife may be but demanding the love
and attention he, in his folly, taught her
to expect, and often assured her she should
have. A change in tho fashion of love
making would be n great blessing. Wo-
men arc spoiled by the alteration they re-
ceivc before marriage, and both they and
their husbands have to cat the bitter after
fruit. Besides, this desperate wooing. is
quite unnecessary. For long time yet
young ladies will have no choice but marry,
whether flattered or not. And they would
make much better and more contentcd
wives if, instead of Intoxicating them with
wild, sweet ravings--that are at lcaat in
sane, if not insinccre-mcn would treat
them from the first with something ap-
preaching the quiet Kindness and affection
that their own less emotional constitution
will enable them to continue.

THE HONEST wORKINGsGIRL.
BY FRANCIS 6. SMITH.

By FHANOts .. SMITH.
THE air is chlll-the city's pave
Is slippery and wet.
The child of wealth and luxury
Is wrapt in slumber yet
The slcct aud snow are rushing by
In many an angrp whlrl,
While hurries to her daily toll,
The honest working girl.
No word have 'gainst gold TO say,
If It be fairly earned;
And fairly used by rich men, who
Sweet charity have learned.
The generous merchant may with pride
His banner broad unfurl,
But prouder is the iccord of
The honest working girl.
Her clothes though not the finest,
Arc the best that she can wear;
Her fingers boast no diamonds,
But her face is very fair;
Her eyes are bright, and when she smiles
She shows her teeth Of pearl;
And love dwells in the bosom of
The honest working girl.
With wages scant the ills of life
She's fitcd to endure
And yet she manages to save
A triilo for the poor;
At any mean or sordid act
With scorn her lip viii, curl,
For noble is the nature OF
The honest working girl.
Then treat her kindly, ye proud ones,
Who "neither toll nor spin -
She has to struggle very hard
Her daily bread to win.
And he-though dressed in finest cloth
Wouldte d very churl,
Who would not, If appealed to, help
The honest working girl.
God bless the honest, gentle ones,
Who labor day by day,
And God blcss those with means to spare,
Who help thcm on their way.
Ye who would, in the better land,
Possess the priceless pearl,
Treat not with scorn, nor cold contempt,
The honest working girl.

Lucifer Matches.

The invention of the lucifer match
was recently claimed by an English
chemist, Mr.. Isaac Holden, in his evil
dence before the Patent Committee of
Parliament. The production of this
most useful and at the same time most
dangerous fre-work, it is said, was due
to happy thought which flashed
through the brain Of Mr.. Holden. This
gentleman was obliged to rise very early
in the morning to pursue his chemical
studies, and experienced great annoy
ance from his tedious efforts to strike q
light by means of flint and steel. He
was giving lectures at the time to avery
large academy. Mr.. Holden says that
he knew the ordinary explosive material
necessary to produceinstantaneousig light,
but that it was very difficult to obtain a
fame on wood by that explosive mate
rial. The idea then occurred to him to
place sulphur under the explosive sub
stance, and the expedient proved en-
tirely successful. The experiment was
exhibited in Mr.. Holden's lecture-room,
and a young man present Immediately
wrote to his father, a chemist in Lon.
don, in reference to the discovery, and
shortly afterwards, it is stated, lucifer
matches were manufactured and offered
for sale.

Dyspepsia.

If a man wishes to get rid of dyspep-
sia, he must give his stomach and brain
less to do. It will be of no service for
him to follow any particular regimen
to live on chaf- bread, or any such stuff
to weigh his food, etc., so long as the
brain is in a constant state of excite
ment. Let that have proper rest, and
the stomach will perform it's functions.
But if he pass IA or Is hours day in
his office or counting-room, and take no
exercise, his stomach will inevitably
become paralyzed, and if he puts moth
ing into it but cracker, day, it will
not digest it. In many cases it is the
brain that is the primary cause. Give
that delicate organ some rest. Leave
your business behind you when you go
to your home. Do not sit down to your
dinner with your brows knit, and your
mind absorbed in casting up interest
accounts. Never abridge the usual
hours of sleep. Take more or less
exercise in the open air every day.
Allow yourself some innocent recrea-
ton. Eat moderately, slowly, of what
you please, provided it be not the
shovel and tongs. If any particular dish
disagrees with you, however, never
touch it, or look at it. Do not imagine
that you must live on rye-bread or oat-
meal porridge; a reasonable quantity of
nutritious food is essential to the mind
as well as the body. Above all, Danish
thoughts of the subject. If you have
any treatises on dyspepsia, domestic
medicine, etc., put them directly into
the fire, If you are constantly talking
and thinking about dyspepsia, you will
surely have it. Endeavor to forget that
you have stomach. Keep clear con-
scince; live temperately, regularly,
cleanly be industrious, too, but be
temperate.-Appletons' Journal.

AN English traveller describes Mys-
tery' called the Creation" which he
saw performed at Bamberg, in Germany,
in 1888. According to his account, it
had the wings of geese tied on their
shoulders to personate angels. Adam
appeared on the scene in big curled
wig, and a brocade morning-gown.
Among the animals that passed before
him to receive their names was a we'll
shod horse, pigs with rings in their
noses, and mastiff with brass collar.
A cows rib-bone had been provided for
the formation of Eve; but the mastif
spied it out, grabbed it, and carried it
off. The angels tried to whistle him
back, but, not succeeding, they chased
him. gave him kicking, and recovered
the bone, which they placed under a
trap-door by the side of the sleeping
Adam, whence there soon emerged a
lanky priest in loose robe to personate
Eve. .-r

Wild Goose, Wheat.

History tells us that a goose saved
Rome; horticulturists all know what a
wild goose did in disseminating the
seeds of hardy plum trees and now an
old gray gander, probably in the en-
ploy of the Department of Agriculture
has engaged in the distribution of seed
wheat. The Albany (Oregon) Democra
has the following: "We have in oul
Office a new feature in the wheat line
called the goose wheat the grains Of
which are remarkable for size, if fol
nothing elsa few of them measurin e
half an inch in length. 1t is estimat ed
that when we'll cultivated this wheat will
yield seventy-five bushels to the acre
It is said to have sgot its start by q
wild goose having been killed on Puget
Sound many years ago, in whose stom
ach were found two grains of wheat,
which were duly sown, and from which
arose the seed"
