The PRIME OF L1FE.-When does the
prime Of life occur? Is it when the
youth has thrown off his half man, half
boy habits, and energies into the full
blown man? Is it when tho young man
has sown his expected crop of wild oats
and is prepared to settle down to live on
the money his foolish father has shaved
for during whole lifetime? Is it be-
fore the almond tree commences to -four
ish2 Isit when the frame is erect, when
the eye glistens and the man feels him
self "every inch mani" We think
not. The prime time of mans life is
that time when he arrives at o Just esti-
nation Of the ability the great God has
endowed him with, and arrives at de-
termination to put his ability to good
use and sndeavors to benefit humanity.
We think that man may be in his prime
at either twenty-one, fifty, or even seventy
years OF age. Some trees require more
years to attain their full growth, and al
though the tree that arrives at stately
beauty at twenty years is an object Of
admiration, and even wonder, those who
require . greater amount of time to ma
ture are generally of greater longevity
and more useful both during life and
after death. The question, "What is
the prime Of life?" is hereby left open
ior discussion.-(Virg. Chronicle. -

A HINT FOR HUSBANDS.

An amusing occurrence has Just come
to light in this city, which although hap
pening several weeks ago, is none the
less interesting as an illustration Of how
cute wife prevented an unfaithful hus-
band from proving untrue to his plighted
troth. A certain merchant in this city
whom we will denominate A., had en-.
gagged the services of a pretty, young
girl to do general housework in his
family. As the days rolled by A. grew
more and more interested in the hand
some looks of the girl, and after short
time became so violently enamored Of
her that he requested a meeting. At
first the girl very sensibly refused to
grant this, but was finally, by much per-
suasion, induced to partially promise to
consider the matter, and if she should
find nothing wrong in it, to comply with
his wishes. During this conversation
A. instructed the girl to place his napkin
under his plate at breakfast on the fol-
lowing Sunday should she decide to grant
him an interview, and If not to place it
AZ usual. After this conversation the
girl grew remorseful and feeling that she
had done wrong by harboring, even for
an instant, the thought of doing thing
30 unjust to her employers wife, went
to her and told her the whole story, and
among other things mentioned that he
had promised her new silk dress should
she come to his store at certain hour
in the evening.
As wife didn't grow angry, didn't rave
and stamp and make things fly generally,
but went about in O business like way
to discover for herself the truth of the
girls statements, and thus to expose her
husbands infidelity. On the following
Sunday, accordingly, the husbands
napkin was duly placed beneath the
plate and he was thus assuerd to the
success Of his little plot, and made con-
fidsnt OF the fulfillment Of his wishes.
On the evening previously agreed upon,
the wife dressed herself up in the ser
want girls clothes, and heavily veiled
started for the store. Here she met her
husband, and by refusing to remove her
veil and by the use of other womanly
tactics, succeeded in leaving him under
the impression that he was having an as
signation with the girl. In course of
time q silk dress was given her, and then
the wife started home. The next morn.
ing the conversation was opened in the
following style: ..
Wife-"Where was you last night,
deary?"
Al was at church last evening, my
love-" -u-.,...,-s E-~ lid
Wifs-"Ars you sure, deary?" '''
A. - "Why, certainly, love; what
makes you doubt me?" ........ .....
Wife We'll. dsary, got nice pres
ent last evening""
Wife-"Wait moment, and I will
get it," s.-. #A@
The wife goes to clothes press and
produces q roll of silk.

Hints for the Housewife.

Washing Calicoes and MuShns.- The
first requisite is plenty of water; this is
even more essential for colored than
for white clothes. 1t should not be
hot enough to scald, and should have a
moderate suds of hard soap before the
garments are put in. Very white and
nice soft soap is preferable to hard for
fannels-does not shrink them as much;
but the latter is best for cotton goods.
Wash calicoes in two waters, using but
little soap in the second. When clean,
rinse them two or even three times in
tepid water. Good Iaundresses always
assert that the great secret of clear mus
Inns is thorough rinsing.
The quality of starch used also affects
light colors, and for muslin dresses es-
pecially only starch of the purest quality
should be used When no very great
stiffness is required, it is good plan to
stir the starch into the rinsing water
it assists in setting the colors where
they show a tendency to run. For set
ting the colors of fading goods have
used ox-gall, alum, borax and salt-all
with good results, though they will not
clinch" green's and blues that are de.
termined on taking French leave.
One benefit in using strong solution
of alum water is that it will positively
make cottons fre-rroof. Mothers who
sit on thorns" at school concerts ano
exhibitions, watching the dangerou:
proximity of gossamer dresses to the
foot-lights, viii appreciate this advan
tage. And SO far from injuring the
looks of the muslin, there is no othel
treatment that will so brighten and i'm
prove the colors.
Colored clothes should be wruns
very thoroughly, dried in the shade
and turned about two or three times
while drying. Farmer.

The Murderer of the Park Family,

From the Chicago Tribune.
The opinion which has already been
expressed in these columns, that the
negroes who were lynched for the muir
der of the Park family in Indiana, were
really innocent of the crime, and that
the murderer himself was one of the
lynching party, is now confirmed. The
statements published in the Ipdianap-
oils Journal, shortly after the lynching,
formed chain of testimony in favor of
the innocence of the negroes which
was irrefragible, but did not fasten the
crime upon the guilty party. The latest
intelligence from Clark county, where
the murdered family resided, completes
the testimony relative to this foul deed,
shows that the murderer is known, and
that the evidence against him is con-
elusive. He was one of the most prom
inent of the lynchers, and was particu-
larly active in having the negroes
hanged. Other villainies are limited at
in connection with the murder, which
are to be duly investigated as soon as
arrests can be made safely. it is the
first duty of the Indiana authorities to
see that arrests are made not only
safely but promptly, and that punish
ment to the extreme limit of the law
shall follow arrest. That State cannot
afford to allow such stigma to rest
upon her name without doing something
to remove it. The whole case adds
point TO what we have more than once
said against the enormity of lynch law

An Unfortunate Man.

A sad tale comes from Selma, Ala
bama- 1t appears that twelve young
men of that city swore off on New
Years day, 1871, and agreed to deposit
with one of their number, on the first
day of each month, $40 each, the total
to be divided among the members of
the association who on the first of Janu-
airy, 1872, should prove to have been
faithful their pledge. One by one the
members backslid and yielded to the
liquid temptation, until only single
individual was left, who at noon on New
Years day was to receive 81 400. This
Abdiel, faithful found among the faith
less, proceed to the rendezvous at the
appointed hour. He waited until ten
minutes after noon, and then thought
he would run into the saloon next door
and get nip. He had just swallowed
| it when ten of the other members en-
tered to take their MONDAY Angostura,
and he found to his horror that his
| watch was twenty minutes fast, and the
money was lost. The eleven, therefore
proceeded to the residence of the treas
urer and found that he had lost all the
money playing draw-poker with one o
the church trustees. The sad occur
renee has cast a gloom over the whole
community.

A Peerless Joke.

Hearth and Home says it is better for
a man to be child and be sent away
early, than to trifle with his wife's feel
ings in this manner:
:" It's all very well to talk SO much
about the Grand Duke Alexis" said Mr..
j, "who will so soon leave US and
be forgotten. But have you heard of
the two noblemen who will remain per-
manently in this country?"

countenance; "and who are they?n

Niagara.
RY n.P. CRANQH

BY q. z. ChANOhs
wandered through the ancient wood
That crowns the cataract-isle;
heard the roaring of the flood,
And saw its wild. fierce smile.
Through tall tree-tops the sunshine fecked
The huge trunks and the ground;
And the pomp of fullest summer decked
The island all around.
And winding paths led all along,
Where friends and lovers strayed;
And voices rose with laugh and song
From sheltered hooks of shade.
Through opening forest vistas whirled
The rapids foamy flash,
As they boiled along and plunged and swirled.
Nearing their last long dash.
crept to the islands outer verge.
Where the grand broad river fell
Fell sheer down. mid foam and surge,
IL a white and binding hell!
The steady rainbow gayIy shone
Above the precipiee;
And the deep, low tone of thunder groan,
Rolled up from the drear abyss.
and all the day sprang up the spray.
Where the broad, white sheets were poured
And fell around in showery play.
Or onward curled and scared,
And Ill the night those sheets of white
Cleaned through the spectral mist,
When Ger the isle the broad moonlight
The wintry foam-fa kissed.
Mirrored within my dreamy thought
l see it--feel it all:
That island with sweet visions fraught-
That awful er-fall.
With sun Aecked trees, and birds. and flow ers
The Isle of Life is fair;
But one deep voice thrills through its hours
One spectral form is there:
power no mortal can resist.
Rolling forever on
A floating cloud--a shadowy mist
Eternal undertonei
. And through the sunny vistas CLEAN
The fate-the solemn smile:
Life Is Niagaras rushing stream,
Its dreanls--that peaceful islel
