Farmers Wives.

The farmers wife has plenty Of bard work
to do. We all know that. She can't fold
her soft white hands and sit in her elegant
parlor and await stream of fashiona bic
callers. No Farm life means work-hard
rough, continuous work 1t means some
thing else, too. Let us see.
First of all, the farmers wife lives much
In the mpanionship of her husband She
has him, body and soul. To her he can
bring all bis vexations and cares. She can
understand them all-can sympathize with
all. The days work done, how sweet the
twilight hour, the evening hour! There is
time for interchange of thoughts and feel
ings. Husband and wife and partners in
all business relations, and can fully under
stand each others cares, trials and perplex-
tiles. :i.F Cd .Aw Fga
Very different is the course of the mer-
chant or the professional man. There is no
partnership here Day by day the husband
enters the lists in the keen competitions of
business, anxious to gain wealth or honor
that he may thereby gain wealth. He oply
cares for the money, SO that his wife may
spend it. She does not undersia and his
!
paths in life diverge- They have few i tier
ests III common. The beautiful dreams Of
''united hearts and hopes which maiden
hood revels 10, are forever unfulflled, and
the married pair 60 on in separate paths to
the end of their journey.
The farmers wife has also the companion
ship of her children. To the farmhouse there
is plenty of elbow room for the little ones in
their mothers presence. They can 60 with
her wherever sbo goes she can always lis
ten to their prattle, can direct their first
efforts at thinking and doing. No ''kinter-
garten" ever invented, presents so good
school for the little ones as is afforded in the
farmers home. Could some hard working
farmers wife, who is discouraged at the DIFF
Gculties Of her post, once step into these
city palaces, and see how utterly impossible
it is there to afford children the develop
ment, physical and moral, they ought to
have, she might be reconciled to her lot of
seeming hardship.
Lastly, the farmers wife is sure of the
future. The house she has labored so hard
to beautify and render comfortable may, in
almost every case, be hers until she removes
to the better land No fear Or a turn in
business or an adverse wind of popular dis
favor, which shall in moment reduce her
to penury. No! the small accumulations
are, in all human probability, never to be
suspended. The quiet little stream will
continue its course, not like Summer
fountain, dried when our need is sorest,"
but, fed by springs that heaven opened up
when the foundations were laid for the solid
earth, when seed-time and harvest were or.
dained-it will grow deeper and broader till
lost in the boundless ocean, Think of these
things, my good lady, and complain of the
toll the dust, and the roughness of your ru-
raj life -Western Rurol.

The Girl Who Wins.

The time has passed away when woman
must be pale and delicate to be called inter-
esting-when she must be totally ignorant
of all practical knowledge to be called re-
fined and high bred-when she must know
nothing of the current political news of the
day, or be called masculine and strong
minded. -'1
It is not sign of high birth or refine.
ment to be sickly and ignorant Those who
affected anything of the kind are behind the
times. and must shake up and air them
selves mentally and physically, or drop IN
der tbs firm strides Of common sense ideas,
and be crushed into utter insigni6cance.
In these days 40 active rosy:faeed girl,
with brain quick and clear, warm, light
heart, temper quickly heated at intended
insult or injury, and just as quick to for
give whose feet can run almost as her ton
que and not put her out Of breath who is
not afraid of fseckles, or to breathe the pure
air of heaven. unrestrained by the drawn
curtains of close carriage and, above all,
who eau speak her mind and give an opin-
ion on important topics which interest in
telligent people, is the true girl who will
make good woman.
This is the girl who wins in these days.
Even tops and dandies who strongly oppose
women's rights, like woman who can talk
we'll, even if she be not handsome They
weary of the most beautiful creature if she
is not smart. They say, cav yes, she is
beauty, and no mistake, but she won't do
for me-lacks brains," Of which oommodi-
ty it would seem she could have little use
in her association with him however to
please even an empty-headed fop, a woman
must know something.

LAZY BoYs.-A lazy boy makes lazy
man, just as crooked sapling makes a
crooked tree. Who ever yet saw boy
grow up in idle ness that did not make a
shiftless vagabond when he became man,
unless he had a. fortune left him to keep up
an appearance The great mascot thieves,
paupers and criminals that fill our peniten-
tiaries and almshouses have come to what
they are by being brought up in idleness.
Those who constitute the business portion Of
the community, those who make our great
and useful men, were trained up in their
boyhood to be iuduatrioVs.

EARN WHAT You Spend. -Three-fourths Of
the difficulties and miseries Of men come from
the fact that poat want wealth without earn
ing it, fame without deserving it, populari-
ty without temperance, respect without vir-
tue, and happiness without holiness. The
man who wants the best things and is will
ing to pay just what they are. worth in hon
est effort and hard self. denial, will have no
difficulty in getting what he wants at last.
It is the men who wants goods on credit that
are disappointed, snubbed and overwhelm-
ed in the end. Happiness cannot be bought
by the bottle, nor caught up by the excur-
sion train, nor put on with any robe Or
jewels, nor eaten at any feast. 1t does not
exist il any exhilaration, excitement or
ownership. but comes from the use of the
faculties Of body and mind. To live truly
is to have happiness wherever you are

The Old Mill.

1t stands in rustic beauty there,
Drowning the valley rich and fair,
And whee Ii and fume are still
Dark rafters tilt from wall to floor,
Creais in the wind the battered door
Of the old deserted mill.
Rank herbage clogs each crannied nook,
And struggling branches overlook
The haunts of rat and owl.
1t leans beside the messy way,
Like some lone friar in hidden gray
. With earth ayerted cOwl.
flushed in the CHATTER which it made,
And merry forms that round it played
Have vanished one by one
Yet stands the old, deserted mill 4aNs
Breathing its happy memories still
OF days forever gone.
Soft, silvery laughter rings around,
And lovers footsteps press the ground
At ewes first pearly star;
The miller carol, blithe and clear,
Borne on the fragrant breeze hear
Echoed DER Woodlands far
And through the doorway, once again
{ Like phantoms through ma dman's brain

Once more hear the busy hum aai
Of voices, as they go and come,
Melodiously low
Again the stream in pure delight ea
Leaps to its work with hands of might
Aud twirls the ponderous wheel
While every impulse of my youth,
Each faded joy, in love and truth, s'iA3
Again, again feel 1ese4
All vanishes, like morning mist
BY the warm sunb cams fondly kiss
However 1t may be.
Oh, there are hearts that have known,
And they, each hope and passion flown,
Seem like tins mill to mel
For still the busy hum goes on .f
Till each allotted task is done,
Our passing years to fill.
And then the waiting foor-gate drops,
And Death, the miller, kindly stops
