WHY some ARE PooR.-Crcam is allowed
to mould and spoil. Silver spoons are used to
scrape kettles. The scrubbing brush is left in
tho water. Nice handled knives are thrown
in hot water. Brooms are never hung up, and
soon are spoiled. Dishcloths are thrown
where mice can destroy them. Tubs and bar
rels are LETT in the sun to dry and fall apart
Clothes are left on the line to whip 70 pieces
in the wind. Pie crust is left to sour instead
of making few tarts for tea. Dried fruit is
not taken care Of in season, and becomes
wormy. Vegetables are thrown away that
would warm for breakfast. The cork is left
out oft the molasses jug, and the flies take
possession. Bits Of meat are thrown out that
would make hashed meat or hash Coffee,
tea, pepper and spices are left to stand open
and l)se their strength Pork sp0ils for the
want of salt, from floating on the top of the
brine. and because the brine wants scalding.

THE EtNKEE AND THE PIRATE.

There lived many years ago, on the east
ern shores Of Mount Desert, q large island
off the coast of Maine, an old fisherman by
the name of Jedediah Spinner, vino owned
schooner of some hundred tons burden, in
which be, together with four stout sons, was
wont to ~ about once "a year 70 the Grand
Banks for the purpose Of catching cod fish.
The old man had five things about which he
loved to bo4st-his schooner Betsy jenkins
and his four sons.
The four sons were all that their father
represented them 20 be, and no one ever
doubted his word when be SAID that their like
was not to be found in fifty miles around.
The Oldest was twenty-five, while the young
est had reached his sixteenth year, and they
answered T. the names Of seth, Andrew,
John, and Samuel.
One morning "a stranger called upon
Jedediah to engage him TO take 10 Havana
some iron machinery belonging to steam
engines for sugar plantations. The terms
were soon agreed upon, and the Old man and
his sons Immediately set about putting the
machinery on board; that accomplished,
they set sail for Havana. with fair wind,
and, for several days proceeded on their
course without an adventure Of any kind.
One morning. however. vessel was described
off the starbJard quarter, which with some
hesitation the old man pronounced tO be a
pirate There was little time given them
for doubling. for the vessel soon saluted
them with not a very agreeable whizzing Of
an eighteen bound shot just under their
stern.
That means for as to heaye too, re-
marked the old man.
'rhen guess We bad better 40 it, hl6nt
we2' said Seth.
"Of course"
Accordingly the Betsy jenkins was
brough, up into the wind, and her main
boom hauled over to windward.
Nov, boys, ' said the old man as soon
as the schooner came 70 a stand. "all we
can do is to be as cool as possible, and trust
to fortune. There Is no way to escape that
| can see now, but perhaps if We are civil,
they will take such stuff as they want, and
then let us 20. At any rate, there is no use
CRYING about it, for it can be helped. Now
get YOUR pistols and see that they are surely
loaded. and have your knives ready. but be
sure TO hide them, SO that the pirates shall
see no sign Of resistence.' In a few moments
all the arms which the schooner afforded.
with the exception Of one or two cid muskets,
were secured about the persons OF our down
Casters, and they quietly awaited the com
ing of the schooner.
Zone word more, boys" said the old man,
Just as the pirate came round under the
stern, Now, watch every motion l make,
and be ready to jump the moment speak.
As Captain Spinnet ceased speaking, the
pirate lufied under the fisherman 8 leeqnarter,
and in a moment more the latters's deck was
graced by the presence of a dozen as savage
looking mOrtals as eye ever looded upon.
,,Are you Captain of the yessel?' asked

the old man.
"Yes sir

Nothing else?' asked the pirate, with a
searching look.
At this moment Captain Spinnet's eye
caught what looked like a sail of to the
south I'd and east I'd, but not a sign betrayed
the discovery, and while a brilliant idea shot
through his mind, he hesitatingly replied.
"Well. there is a little something else, ''
"lla, and what is It ?'
why, sir, p'r'eps hadn't ought to tell, -
said Captain Spinner, counterfeiting the
most extreme perturbation. You see, it
was given to me as sort Of trust. an it
wouldn't be right for me to give it up. You
can take any thing else you please, for
can't help myself
'You are an honest coigcr, at any rate, "
said the pirate "but if you would live ten
minutes longer, Just tell me what YOU ve got

old man to bis senses, and in u depreciating
