ly. On the road they met flock of
sheep.
What a large flock of wolves =
cried the husband.
"They are not wolves" observed
the wife, "but sheep"
''Turn round the cart, and take
us home, I" ordered the husband of the
servant. And this was accordingly
done.
A third time the farmer asked his
wife if they ought not to pay visit
to her old parents, and as she ac-
| quiesced eagearly, the horses were
once more harnessed. They had
gone over a deal of ground, when
they met flock of hens.
"Quite true" said the wife.
This time they did not turn back,
and when they reached the dwelling
of the old folks, there were great re-
| joicings. Karen and Maren like
wise came with their husbands. The
mother took her three daughters in
to the room, for she was very curious
to question Metty as to her mode of
living, and to know whether she was
satisfied with her husband. During
this interval, the father kept filling
a large jar full of silver coins, which
he placed on the table before his
sons-in-law, saying it would belong
with its contents to the woman who
was most obedident.
On hearing this, the eldest began
to cry out, "Karen, my beloved,
come hither for a monochrome,
my dearest Karen. But all his ap-
peals were lost upon Karen. Even
when he went into their bedroom,
and began to urge her, with kind
of gentle violence, he could not make
her stir.
The second husband Jared no bet
ter with his Maren.
It was now the third husbands
turn. He merely went to the door,
knocked, and said, "Come here,
Metty."
Out she came in a moment, and
enquired whether he wanted any
thing.
He answered, Merely the sprig
I gave into your keeping when we
were in the wood on our wedding
day."
She gave it to him at once, as she
always carried it in her pocket.
Then the husband showed it to the
others, saying, "Behold! I bent
this branch while it was yet green
you ought to have done the same p

ONE RATE FOR ALL DISTANCES.

These figures show that in Bel
givm a 23-cent passenger rate and 2
cent freight for all distances would
be more than sufficient to earn $I5,-
900 per mile annually. But these
are unreasonably low figures. Put
the rate at so cents per ton for goods
and passengers at II cents for all
distances, and Government would
increase present receipts over $1,-
100000. But the great benefit ac-
cruing from this plan would be in
creased travel, by which cities would
be benefited as well as the country,
and an immense impulse given to
industry of every description.
The Post refers to the fact that
the last report of the Bureau of
Agriculture states that large pro-
portion of the fax fiber grown in
the West is thrown to the manure
heap, and the census report in
stances as notorious facts that
when corn is selling for 80 cents in
New England 1t is burned for fuel
in Iowa when wheat is selling for
$1.35 in New York it IS only worth
45 cents in Minnesota, and when
beef brings 81 a hundred on the
hoof in the East, cattle are slaugh-
tered for their hides in Texas" But
multitudes of such facts might be
cited to show, what common-sense
sufficiently indicates, that unles the
interior States of the West can OBJ
tain an outlet for their produce their
property is valueless and labor
thrown away, save in so far as they
suffice for subsistence.
With the view of aiding inquiry,
the following particulars were added
in reference to number of our lead
ing rair1oad lines, located in various
districts, as to the distance which a
passenger travels on the line, and
his fare, and "a to the distance
which each ton of goods on an aver
age is carried, and at what cost.
In New York State each passenger
travels on an average Of thirty-seven
miles, and each ton of freight is car
ried one hundred and twenty-nine
miles

A MilliOnaire's Experience.

Not long since I met a gentleman
who is assessed for more than a
million. Silvered was his hair, care
upon his brow, and he stopped be-
meath his burden of wealth. We
were speaking of that period of life
when we had realized the most per-
feet enjoyment, or, rather, when we
had found the happiness nearest to
being unalloyed. I'll tell you, said
the millionaire, "when was the hap
piest hour of my life. At the age of
one and twenty I had saved $500.
I was earning $500 a year, and my
father did not take it from me, only
requiring that 1 should pay for my
board. At the age of twenty-one /
had secured a pretty cottage just
outside of the city. 1 was able to
pay two-thirds of the value down
and also to furnish it respectfully.
was married on Sunday Sunday
in June-at my fathers house. My
wife had come to me poor IN purse,
but rich in the wealth of her woman
hood. The Sabbath and the Sabbath
night we passed beneath my fathers
roof, and on Monday morning I was
to work, leaving my mother and sis
ter to help in preparing my home.
On Monday evening when the labors
of the day where done, I went not
to my parental shelter as in the past,
but to my own house-my own house.
The holy atmosphere of that hour
seems to surround me even now in
memory. I opened the door of
my cottage and entered. I laid my
hat on the little stand in the hall
and passed on to the kitchen-our
kitchen and dining room were both
one then. I pushed open the door
and wVs-in heaven. The table was
ready-prepared by the hand of her
who had come to be my helpmeet in
deed as well as in name-and by the
table, with a throbbing, expectant
look on her face, stood my wife. I
tried to speak and could not. I
could only clasp the waiting angel
to my bosom, thus showing to her
the elastic burden of my heart. The
years have passed-long, long years
and worldly wealth has flowed in
upon me, and I am honored and en-
We'd 4; but, as true as heaven I would
give it all-every dollar-for the Joy
of that June evening, long ago.

GOLDEN WORDS.

LET EVIL words die as sUOn as
they're spoken.
A JoYLEss life is worse to bear than
one of active grief F'aber.
LABOR itself is the Providence of
the modern world John Weiss.
DISCRETION has large and extended
views, and, like q we'll formed eye,
commands q whole horizon.
JEALOUS men are ever displaying
to you the strength of their belief,
while judicious men are showing you
the grounds of it.
A BRAVE man thinks no one his
superior who does him an injury
for he has it then in his power to
make himself superior to the other
by forgiving it.
If YOU wish success in life, make
perseverance your bosom friend, e1-
perience your wise counsellor, eau
ton your elder brother, and hope
your guardian genius.
OFTEN from our weaknesses our
strongest principles of conduct are
born and from the acorn, which
breeze has waited, springs the oak
which defes the storm.
If MAN talks of his misfortunes,
there is something in them that is
not disagreeable to him for where
there is nothing but pure misery
there never is any recourse to the
mention of IT'D johnson.
MEMS LIVES should be ike the day,
more beautiful IN the evening or,
like the summer, aglow with promise;
and. like the autumn, rich with the
golden sheaves, where good words
and deeds have ripened on the field.
Do NOT lean upon others. 1t sell
dom pays. Energetic men do not
care to aid q man who never tries to
help himself. 1t Is absurd for any
man to call himself unfortunate who
has done nothing but to depend upon
others, when he might have cut out
a way to honor and fortune for him
self.
CONSEQUENCES are Implying. Our
deeds carry their terrible consequent
ces. quite apart from any fuctua-
tions that went before-consequen-
ces that are hardly ever confined to
ourselves. And 1t Is best to fix our
minds on that certainty, instead of
what may be the ele-
ments of excuse for u.s. George
Eliot.
IT Is not so hard as people sup
pose to be faithful to ones engage
ment's. The engagement which is
to be kept keeps you In its turn. 1t
cuts hesitation to the quick, and pro-
tects the will with all the power of
a promulgated decree.
