DEACON 5 - was am au>tcrc man, who
followed oystering, and was Of the hard-shell
persuasion. The Deacon "alus made it a
pint to tell his customers that the money
which he received for listers" did not belong
to him. " The good Father made the ist-
eercs, said the Deacon, and the money is

SWEET SIXTEEN AT ScHooL-A story is
t Id Of little affair which took place in one
Of the schools Of the Nutmeg State. The
principal Of the school in question attempted
the other day to break one Of his pupils
SpnghtIy miss Of sweet siXtccn-of the habit
Of scribbling upon her slate Seeing that she
had written the name Of her reputed lover,
the principal took the slate and held it up be-
fore the school, saying, after he had read the
name distinctly:
Children, can you tell me who that gentle
man Is? have seen his name upon Elias
slate several times. He must certainly be of
some Importance. After pause the princi-
pal continued, while all eyes were fixed intently
dent of the United States?"
:. Why, no, sir exclaimed the roguish girl,
with very sober look, apparently wishing to
clear up the mystery; ''he is real nice young
fellow down to Stonington Point"

Country Households.

| have seen no life more sad than that which
Is led III many OF our country households. A
@irl OF talent discovers in her quiet home that
she lnhablts garden that can give her no
adequate n0urlshment, and brcathes an atmos-
pherc which has no breath of the lie she
needs: There is no society, no contact with
superior persons, little access even to superior
books. Her brothers go away freely, one by
one, TO seek better fortune but she must re-
main III this inactive home, and wait she
knows not Tor what. She sees that for life
time she is to be subjected to an experiment
more cruel than that of the mouse placed in
the EXHAUSTED receiver Of the air-pump The
me OF her body will continue, but only to watch
the slowly wasting of her life spirit.
No position Is more pathetic than this
hat is the dread of future punishment in
comparison with the present starvation of the
soul? We need not anticipate an inexpressi-
bic misery, nor expect to assign it to others
Purgatory Is present fact but it exists in the
best and purest households rather than in the
worst. 1t exists in the cramped homes of our
country towns, where daughters walk sadly TO
their fathers gardens, restless. wan. as the
shades Of the Inferno. The unsatiSfrJ and
unSatlshable desire, the aspiration toward
achievement, the hunger for activity. the long
ing for sympathy, the need Of work, the alb
Sence OF that tone of thought feeling, and fel-
lowship that is equally necessary for fine de-
velopment in character or in culture the en-
vironment OF an unworthy society, the bond
age OF false pOsitiOn-the lack, in short. of
nearly all the aids to healthy life and growth
all these things our finest natures long en-
dure before they sink into the commonplace.
The last transformation is made insensiblv
tor Nature, considerate in her severity, does
not permit the sufferers to remain conscious to
the end. As to charmed animals, she sends
to them tt c kind unconsciousness Of approach
ing death she bathes them in a Lethe of for
malas, creeds, and designations; and each
stranded spirit slowly loses the dream of hi,
youth, and forgets that ever he set forth With
',splended purpose in his eyes. "--THe Yea,
