of getting a divorce. What do
you advise, sirs"
The Governor sat C few mo.
ments in thought; then turning
to his visitor, said, "llow did
You treat Mrs. W--when
you were courting her? and
how did you feel towards her
at the time of your MARRIAGE"
Squire W--replled, 81
treated her as kindly as | could,
for | loved her dearly at that
time." 1r g.-e
"Well, sir" said the Govern.
or, "you go home and court her
now just as you did when you
married her. DO this in the
lear of God for one year, and
then tell me the result"
The Governor then said, "Let
US pray"
They bowed in prayer and
then separated. When a year
had passed away Squire W
called again to see the Govern
or, and said: Il have called to

you gave me, and to tell you
that my wife and | are as hap.
py as when we wele married. ]

Secret of Happiness.


An Italian bishop, who had
struggled through many diff
cultieS without repining, and
been much opposed without
manifesting impatience, being
asked by a friend to communi
cate the secret of his being al
ways SO happy, replied" con
siSts IN a single thing, and that
is, making a right use of my
eyes," His friend, III surprise,
begged him to explain his
meaning. "Most willingly" re.
piled the bishop. "In whatso
ever state l am, l first Of all
look up to heaven, and remem.
Der that my great business is
to get there. l then look down
upon earth, and call to my
mind how small q space | shall
soon fill in it. l then look
abroad in the world, and see
what multitudes are in all re.
spects less happy than myself.
And thuSI | learn where true
happiness is placed, where all
my cares must end, and how
little reason l ever had to mur-
mur, or 10 be otherwise than
thankful. And 10 live in this
spirit is to live always happy"

A critter Of heroic blood
Was that there cuaged mule.
They cussed and swore--he would not GO
Until he felt inclined
And though they showered blow on bloW,
He wouldn't change his mind.
The deck hands to the shore then cried,
i'This mules bound to stay,
And still npon the critters hide,
With lash they fired away.
His master from the shore then cried,
"The boats about to sail, sa5
And every other means you've tried,

Faded Flowers

Z
An old man now 7 sit and think
Alone and sad tonight, .
Some faded flowers tied up with pink
Have dropped before my sight
The book Preached from OF the stand
Seemed quite untouched for ages
Itopened wide with my hand,
These flowers between the pages.
AT once my thoughts go back for years,
My present life fades fast;r 1inaa
My eyes grow dim unhidden tears
Spring forth and fall At last,
And all the mists Of years roll by,
And all the weary hours, .
And once again I hear the igh E
0fone who plucked these flowers.
I stand once more beside the stile--
Oar usual trying place
/ watch the look and note the emile
OF one sweet upturned face.
And then the mist rolls back again,
And al seems like q dream
Thewoodlandp patch, the hawthornelane,
The towers beside the stream.
Aht me, those simple, faded flowers
Have brought brick I'll the past,
Ny shadoW'd life, my wasted hours,
My hopes 80 soon o'ercast
Sad memories lying hushed for years
Have sprung to life once more
I rise, and nnurntir midst my tears,
''Not lost but gone before
