up the bank After the long strain of fear all my nerves seemed to relax at once and for some time could do nothing but sit and sob in the most piteous way. Of course, Jack didn't leave me alone in that condition; and so-and so. Well, that was the beginning. I was so i'll for three days that we couldn't get away from Mia gara and he came to inquire, and Juliet asked him to call on us in town. Pm afraid you'll be shocked when tell you that it was only six weeks before we were engaged His father turned out to be pas college chum, however, so that made it easier to know him. Such happy summer as we've had Juliet has been as good as an angel, and sent to Paris for eve- ry stitch of my trousseu; so I've absolute ly had nothing to do but enjoy myself and the country and Jack. An, there's the stage at last !'-as loaded vehicle rattled up the road and somebody waved hand kerchief.
 "Excuse me, won't you, dear Saidee I must go and meet him. He likes to see me the first thing.".
 And she ran up the bank just as gay voice overhead began calling, "Godiva! <! fair one with golden locks, where are you?"

Love generally changes coquettry to sense, and prudery to sillyness.
 It iz only a step from cunning tew dishonesty, and it iz Q step that man iz liable at ennytime tew take.
 Old age haz its priviliges-one iz tew find fault with everything:
 Weak and sciched are the two worst things that ennyboddy can be charged with.
 He who iz willing tew trust every boddy. iz willing tew be cheated by everybody.
 Whenever yu find man, with an excentricity ov enny kiLd, which he brags ov. yu kan put that man down az "bedt," and charge it tew mi account.
 A wise man iz never less alone than when alone.
 A man may mistake hiz talents, but he kant mistake hiz genius.
 Talent must hay memory, genus don't require it.
 I don't beleave thare iz human being on the face ov the earth, nor an angel in heaven, who are positively proof against temptashun.
 When a man measures out glory for himsely he alwus heaps the half bushel.
 A bile ain't very sore thing after all, espeshily when it iz on sum other phellow.
 Pretty much all the philosophy in this world iz kontained in the following bracket grin aud bear it
 I don't kno whitch haz done the most damage in this world, haynes or malice, but guess lazyness has.
 If had fust rate dogs would name the best one " Doubtful' and the other 3 |" Useless"
 Rumor iz like 0 swarm ov bees, the more yu fite them the less yu git rid ov them.
 Virtew may konsist in never shining, but the glory ov v1rtew konsists in re- pentance.
 Fashion makes phools ov sum, sinners ov others, and slaves ov all,
 A jest may be kruel, but a joke never iz.
 I never bet not So hutch bekause l am afrade shall loze, az bekause am afrade shall win.
 A phools money iz like his brains, very oneazy.
 don't think the height ov impudence haz ever been reached yet, altho menny hay made good try for it.
 The reason whi all the works ov nature are so impressive, iz bekause, they re- present ideas.
 The books which summer tourists carry about with them are desighned more to employ the hands, than improve the branes.
 The man whoze whole strength lays in his money iz weak man I had rather be able tew milk COW suckcessfully on the wrong side, than to be such @ man.

TENANT -HoUsEs.-- expense of board ing hired men is too great for any farmer to assume. It is done at the sacrifice of the comfort of his family. The money expenditure needed to accommodate them by themselves is far less than would be supposed. Two hundred dollars will build a very comfortable house, large enough for dozen people when necessary. Three
 leeping- rooms, one kitchen, and one eat ing-roem will furnish space and privacy for large family, or for several unmarried men, quite equal to that enjoyed by the average of our farmers. A frame house of two stories thus divided. with plastered walls and ceilings, built substantially, with a floor size of 16x24 feet, and heights be- tween floors of nine and eight feet, cellar and an outside shed for cooking in sum- lner and wood-shed in winter, may be built for the amount mentioned. If the farmer is handy and can put up a balloon frame, inclose it, roof it, and lay the floors, and employ carpenter only to put in the doors and windows, and 8 mason to build the chimney and plaster the house, and stone up the cellar walls, the money outlay will be materially reduced. The comfort gained by the farmer and his family in freedom from domestic annoyances will be good return for the investment the very first year; but the gain to the farm in having better and more trustw worthy kind of help will be much greater, and will come each season in the pleasingly tangible shape of profits derived from better work and crops more readily se- cured. The employment of married men will then be possible, and they are found to be worth several hundred dollars a month more than those not thus ':.an- chored."

Love UneXpressed.

The sweetest notes among the human heart strings
 Are dull with rust; The sweetest chords, adjusted by the angels,
 Are clogged with dust; We pipe and pipe again our dreary music
 Upon the self-same strains, While sounds of crime, and fear, and desola. tion,
 Come back in sad refrains. ing
 With listening ears, Each longing, signing, for the heavenly music
 He never hears Each longing, signing, for word of comfort,
 A word of tender praise, A word of love, to cheer the endless journey
 Of earth's hard, busy days. They love us, and we know it; this sufices
 For reasons share. Why should they pause to give that love ex- pression
 With gentle care? Why should they pause? But still our hearts are aching
 With all the gnawing pain Of hungry love that longs to hear the music,
 And longs and longs in vain. We love them, and they know it :; if we falter,
 With fingers numb, Among the unused strings of lovs's expression,
 The notes are dumb. We shrink within ourselves in voiceless sorrow
 Leaving the words unsaid. And, side by side with those we love the dear est,
 In silence on we u cad. Thus on we tread, and thus each heart in si. lence
 Its fate fulfills, Waiting and hoping for the heavenly music
 Beyond the distant hills, The only difference of the love in Heaven
 From love on earth below, Is Here we love and know not how to tell it,
 And there we all shall know.

Why She Refused.

You say you went to party last night, and you saw Mrs. Smith, an old friend, whom you had not seen since she and your sister were at school together. You had 0 very pleasant talk until supper, then you gave her your arm and took her to supper. When some one came along with few glasses of wine on a waiter and offered her glass, you saw her shudder as she said, " No ]" and you wondered why Mrs. Smith, who didn't use to be particular about such things, not only refused but shuddered when she said, '" No p You can not tell why can tell you why. You went on with your talk, and had little renewed f1irta- tion, did you I won't say you didn't. She was very gay, and seemed very glad to forget herself, she did ? Very well I am glad you gave her that honor ot the evening. l can tell you where she wentafter the party was over. She was glad it was late, for her husband had not come home. She sat and read an hour and her husband did not come. She wrote for an hour, and he did not come She sat at the piano for an hour, but he did not come. At length, between three and four o'clock, there was 0 noise al the door. and two policemen held him in their arms. She knew them both we'll by this time. It happens so often that she knows every policeman on tha beat They hade her goodnight. She brought him in. She had locked her child's room that he might not ahuse him. She took the abuse as he flung himself upon the bed. She took off his neckcloth and coat, and sat there unti he should fall into his stupid sleep. She was the woman who had refused a glass of wine with shudder You did not know the story. You thought she was gay and bright. I know her story because I am her minister. They have a sort of skeleton in the closet, whicE we are permitted to see and you are not And when you see that skeleton, do you wonder that we sometimes say pretty sharp things about moderate drinking and the temptations offered at parties. -Rev. 2. E. Hale.

LONDON London is spoken of as the largest city in the world; as covering one hundred and twenty-two square miles of ground, as being ten miles in length, and over six in breadth, and as containing nearly four millions of inhab- itants. Still we have no adequate con. ception of its vastness. We must resort so to comparison to comprehend it. The four millions of inhabitants of London, then, exceed the combined population of New York, Brooklyn, St. Lotus, Chlcago' Baltimore. Cincinnati, Boston, New Or leans, San Francisco and Buffalo. To feed this multitude requires, among other items, five million four hundred thousand barrels of flour, and three mil lion four hundred thousand animals bullocks, sheep, calves and hogs-for the London markets, irrespective of i'm mense quantities of fish. It is almost nation in itself, this wonderful. over grown giant of a city.

HoRR1D. strawberry flavor is got out of Limburger cheese, or why 4he soles of ladies' shoes should be bet ter than the soles of mems boots, are puzzling. Perhaps it is the invention of 10-cent soda man to put down the five-centers. That favorite syrup, straw berry, which goes gurgling ill rosy cool ness down the fair throats of pretty girls, has butyric ether base of rancid butter and old rotten cheese the oldest Linn burger being the most desirable-treated with sulphuric acid and numerous pieces cut from old boot legs and the soles of ladies' shoes Twelve parts of this compound, one part of acetic ether diluted with alcohol and water, colored with cochineal. make what we call straw berry syrup at the lesser fountains. Banana syrup is compounded of rancid butter, fermented starch, and acetic ether Sarsaparilla has base of com mon molasses, with dash of winter green added. Vanilla syrup is made of tonka beans and fresh hay. Pineapple syrup is made of rancid butter, sulphuric acid, glycerine and soap. Peach syrup is made of bitter almonds and acetic ether Nectar contains neutral spirits, logwood, sugar and raisins. Lemon is the best and most harmless, being gen. erally composed of citric acid and sugar. The above will be recognized as the most popular syrups, and the drink, as dispensed at the fountains by 8 large number of soda water dealers, costs from one cent to one and quarter per glass, and it is sold at from five to ten cents per glass, yielding Q profit of from 800 to 500 per cent. The syrups of the first-class establishments are prepared with great care from ripe fruit and pure crushed sugar, and consequently costs more than the chemical compounds sold for syrups. The soda from these fountains costs probably three and a half cents per glass.

A RURAL WEDD1Na.-One of those old time weddings took place in Uniontown, Penn., a few days ago. A young gentle man and lady, strangers to everybody there, called on the squire to get married. The young man was carrying his shoes in his hand on account of stone bruise and had on his shoulder long, narrow sack. In one end he had something resembling wearing apparel, and in the front end he had small dog, with its nose sticking out of hole. The young lady had in her arms large Maltese cat, with pink rlb- bon around it's neck, fastened with neat breast pin. When they came to the of flee the young man refused to go in, but, she, taking hold of his coat, said: ''Come on, I ain't afraid" Finally he went in. She says: Esquire, we want to get mar ried." "Hold on," said the young man, ''I want to know how much this job costs" The price was agreed on, and In the meantime, many had gathered, and two of the crowd acted as attendants. While the ceremony was going on, one of the at tendants cried oua "Hold on, this fellow ain't on the right side." Being properly placed the squire proceeded, and the two were made one, and left, no one knew Where, being entire stranger.

A. SEA- SHE'LL BATH1Na-TUB. - When our little boys and girls have seen sea- shells foot in length they probably have considered them very large indeed. But what would they say to shells so large that they make excellent bathing tubs for grown-up men ? In the seas near the Molucca Islands the enormous clam called Tridena is not rare, and it is the shell of this clam that the natives of the Moluccas use for bathing or washing tubs. They are v6ry handsome shells, and when polished are often taken to Europe, and used as fonts in churches, or as basins for goldfish in ornamental grounds. The flesh of the Tridena tastes something liko oysters, and is much prized by the Mulucca Islanders. One Tridena will make meal for twenty persons, and the shell, which has to be cut with an ax from the rock to which it grows, is so heavy that it makes quite a good load for horse.

A MINISTER'S SwEAT.-A Michigan paper tells an amusing story of a minister of that State who took an old-fashioned sweat. and was wrapped up in an old fashioned patch quilt of many colors. In due course of time he walked up to find himself all over spotted blue, black and purple. Believing. that modification had already set in, he began to settle up his earthly accounts and prepare for his final dissolution, while the members of the flock gave themselves up to uncon- trollab6 grief. The arrival of physi- elan and the examination of tho faded quilt gave another explanation of the spots, and turned the house of mourning nto one of laughter.

A FEAT OF HANDs.-Who can put one hand in such position that the other hand can not possibly touch it ? Aunt Carrie, in the Americdn Home Book, tells us that there is but one way of doing this (namely, clasping the elbow), and she's right. Try it for yourselves, chil- dren, or if you want to make fun, sud- denly ask the above question of a room full of persons. Every one will try, and tnere'u be some rather comicaI twistings and turnings before any one succeeds.

CLAMs.-The vigorous and active clam can dig hole and bury itself six inches in the sand. Fisherman say that they have often left thousands of clans on a beach where they would be exposed to the air at low tide, but visiting the spot at that period woul1 not find shell in sight. Digging few inches below the surface, there would be found Mcssrs. Clam & Go. reposing in unconscious innocence and stony stolidity, as quiet and impassive as the sphynx, and with no sign of clammy sweat upon their brows after their hard work in digging their own graves with their several single pulpy feet.
