SAYH.

To workingmen in the present
prosperous condition Of trade We
would whisper one word-"save."
Business is not always prosperous.
There are periods of depression, when
dollars are scarce and work scarce.
Tho power of money is its means to
elevate. Save dollars now, for no
matter how long the present prosperi-
ty may continue, the time will come
when every dollar saved can be plac-
ed to good use. The most successful
wealthy man began to rise by saving
cents. The greatest men arose by do
ing their best in little things. To say
there is no opportunity for the young
mechanic to rise is false, for the lazy
men of the world, those who are con-
tent to eat and drink and die, are
numbered by thousands, while those
who have the energy to mount the
ladder by individual exertion and per
sonal privations are few.
Save is the watchYord Of the aspir-
ing man. The history of every sup-
cessfuI man proves it. A time will
soon present itself when the savings
can be most profitably invested. We
often hear one say Had IOnly so
much money to go into this, that or
the other thing could soon get rich."
You can have money by saving it.
There lis no necessity for spending
the last dollar and cent earned. Save,
and YOU will find a charm in saving,
and the chance to invest it well will
soon present itself.
Ali the wealth we see about in the
world, all the monuments of mechan-
ism and art, all the cities, all the
ships. all the visible wealth in the
world, are the result of savings well
invested. They are the result Of per-
sonal privations instead Of gratihca-
tion.-Had the men who built our
mills, our ships, our cities, our evil
dence of civilization, done as thous-
ands of men are doing to day, viz,
using all their means and saving none,
we would see none of these grand re-
suits our cities would still be unbro-
ken wilderuesses, where animals
roamed ; our mills and workshops
would still be unknown the timber
of our naTies would still be growing
in wild woods, and our rich and grow
ing country would be an uncultiYated
waste. But men were industrious,
and saved. Those who do not save
might, as far as the civilization of the
world is benefited by them, never
have lived. Every man who saves
leaves behind him that which will
benefit the world. The man WHO
does not save leaves nothing to make
the world better. Our duties to our
selves as well as to society unite in
urging US to save.-AmeFiedR Work.

q AONLY ALITTLE sHELLING. y

The following incident was related
by Col. Dunbar at the recent reunion
of the Michigan cavalry
We had a German-American fellow
soldier by name General Willieh, and
a good soldier, too, by the way. 1t
was about the time of the battle Of
Stone River, when, one day, Capt.
Allen, Of Gen. Willich's staff came
riding up to the headquarters. and the
following conversation ensued:
"Vel, Captain" said the General,
in jolly mood, wat ish der news
NIT fronts ?"
20, not much of any news, General
only little shelling going on"
The General jumped to his feet, all
excitement, aud staff officers and or
derlies gathered around to hear the
news, while General WiIlich exelaim-
ed:
"S9helIing? schelling? vot schel-
ling? vot ish der damage ?n
20, not much damage, General-lt
was only the boys out there shelling
little corn for their horses! :"
Tosay that this brought out laugh
is TO draw 1t mild. 1t would have
brought down the house had there
been any house to bring down. The
General, laughing as heartily as the
rest, exclaimed:
"Dot ish coot Dot ish some funsI"
A little while after, General Har-
ker, upon whose staff then had the
honor to be serving, rode over to Will
licheis headquarters, and Gen. W., no
doubt thinking it good opportunity
to air his new joke, replied, in answer
to Gen. Harker's query as to what
was the news,
"Oh, vel, Sheneral, dere bees not
much pews-only der poys bees sehel-
ling a leedle corn for der horses, /"
He looked at US here as mch IS TO
say, Now is the time for the laugh to
come in, and he himself broke into a
boisterous "Hal ha :" which came to
q very abrupt termination when he
saw that we did not Join him.
The officers who had been present
at the former scene had by this time
put in an appearance, drawn thither
by the Generals merriment, aud,
scratching his head in much per-
plexity, he exclaimed
"Py jings! der vas somedinR funny
apOut dat ven 1 hears himi'i
About that time he found out where
the laugh came in.

THE BLESSING OF TO-DAY.

Strange. we never prize the music
TIL the SWeet-voieed birds have 1own ;
Strange that we should slight the Violets
Till the lovely flowers are gone,
Stranger that summer skies and sunshine
Never seem one half so fair
As when winters snowy pinions
Shake the white down in the airl
Lips nom which the seal Of silence
None but God can roll away,
Never blossomed Of such beauty
As adorns the month to-day;
And sweet words that freightour memory
With their beautiful perfume,
Come to US in sweeter accents
Through the portals ofthe tomb
Let Us gather up the sunbeams
Lying all around our path;
Let us keep the wheat and roses,
Casting out the thorns and chat;
Let us find out sweetest comfort
In the blessings Of the day,
With q patient hand removing
All the briers from our way.

Turning over an old note book I
stumbled on the following reminis-
cenee Of General Cass
Among the more noted hotels in
Washington is the National-a MAN.
moth establishment. 1t is, believe,
the largest, accommodating four or
five hundred guests. Its present
proprietor, Mr.. Guy, has expended
literally in refitting and furnishing
the old concern. This gentleman's
striking resemblance to General Cass,
aud the senator's residence at the
hotel, have given rise to numerous
misadventures and good stories for
the truth of which last, however, I
will not vOuch. For instance, it is
told with much gusto that a gentle
man from down East, full Of COM
plaint and in search OF the landlord
unhappily ran against our dignified
senator and exclaimed
II say, old fellow, sorry to trouble
you, but do you know where they put
me?n
General Cass; thinking this some
unsatisfied Office seeker, responded
good -naturedly, g Indeed I do not.

The disappointed complainant was

Dying the EasIect Thing A Man Does.

Lue ~. l. Zflust
Mr.. Beecher was in an unusually
talkatiye mood last night, and dis
coursed Familiarity in his lecture room
about the various ideas of death. He
did not think it an evidence of special
Christian grace to be willing 20 die.
He didn't think it natural for the
young or for those full Of the activi-
ties of life to desire to die. 1t is bet
ter to be willing to live and do the du-
ties oflife. When Paul said il was bet.
ter to depart he was an old man in pris-
on. L an October pippin says it is
ready to drop, Is that any reason little
green apple in June should be ready ?
It isthe business of green apples to get
ripe. All the representations of the
Testament about death are full of
cheer and hope. For Paul to die was
to go to Christ. Dying is not grow
ing short of breath and feeble of pulse.
It'is flying up to the All-loving Soul
of the universe. It is going to sweet
companionship. We struggle on
through the world, finding little COM
panionship, but we 90 to the spirits

cord. There is no selfishness, no
hardness and crudeness and rudeness
or revenge; all are working up with
one sweet impulse, with great genial
creative force of Divine love. These
thoughts ring in my soul like the
bells OF far off city drawing me
thitherward. Dying is the easiest
thing men do. The suffering is in
life; but as a rule men die as easily as
a door turns upon its hinges. Dying
is going home, not to supineness, not
to Oriental luxury, but to supreme
activity, where every part is develop
ed and cultured in the realm of love.
Bless God for the privilege of dying
My brother Charles, who was always
In a dying mood, once congratulated
my father upon the fact that he
couldn't live much longer. "Umph,'

of my boys should talk to me in that
way. don't want to die. If had

get myself or somebody else into
scrape when I take a notion, and I'd
taken one that night that went al
over me like a third day chill, so ]
commenced studyini out some plan.
L recollected hearing the doctor say
that where he came from, (but the
Loru only knows where that was,
the bride and groom always washed
their faces together before they went
to bed, as charm against infielity or
imbf silitY, or some other long word.
While l was studyin' about that, 1
spied the DOCTORS saddlebags. setting
in the corner, so I waited till they
went into supper, and looked to see
what 1 could discover. Nearly the
first thing 1 saw was peiee Of lunar
eaustic. L slipped ii into my pocket,
for had my plan as saw il. Well,
/ watched around till saw one eff the
girls go to the pail with q pitcher, so
went out and asked her what she
was going to do with it. She said she
was going to carry it 10 the room for
the Doctor and Polly to wash their
faces in l kept talking to her while
she was filing the pitcher, and when
she turned her head, I dropped the
caustic into it. 1t was then about
Bedtime, and L got my hat and put
out, but I cOuldn't help laughing all
the way home, whenever I'd think
about next morning.
"Well, Squire, they do say that
when that eoEplewaked up early next
morning, they both had the hardest
kind of fits, each one thinking that
they had been sleeping with niger.
Oh, 1t was rich He cussin', and
tearin' up things, ami she screamin'
and faintin' Rnd comm to and gOin'

They made such a rascally racket
that the folks broke into the room to
see what was the matter, and there
they was with their faces and hands
all as black as the inside of an old
stove pipe. As soon as they had found
out that they was really the same folks
that were married the night before,
they called for warm water and soap,
but just here the doctor happened to
think about the pitcher, and took i
to the door to see what was the matter.
There was a little piece Of caHsfie that
had not dissolved, and as soon as he
saw it he says: .-.-
It's no use washing, Polly. All
the soap in New York city can't wash
that of. .nl nmu> .s-a
" That's the truth. Squire. Soap
and water had no more effect than it
would on a native born African, and
all the chance was to wait and let 1t
wear off. How long it took them TO
get white again I never found out,
but one thing I do know" he con-
eluded, getting up to goout, "the next
time I saw the doctor had the hard
est fight, and come the highest gettin'
whaled that ever did in my born
