The reut,ee Of Mr. RubinBtein WAS greeted
with fair audience, though not aH large In NUM-
bora as might hnyo boon expected from the ex-
cellsnt impression which he made at his formor
visit. That tho house WAS not crowded must be
owing to tho fact that tho people havo boon
utterly voaried with the constant succession Of
attractive entertainments TINT hayo been taking
them out poarly every night for tho past throo
weeks. It cannot but DO regarded IS unfortu-
mute that so much good music should como to-
gother.
Mr.. Rubiuston changed the programme aomo-
what from tho printed announcement. In open

substituted Bchumann's "Etudos sympho-

Red Salt

AlYoUNG parson ofthe Uni-
versalist faith, manyyears since, !
when the, simon pure .Uniyer-
salism was preached, started
westward to attend a Conven-
ton Of his brethren in the faith.
He took the precaution to car
ry a vial of cayenne pepper in5i
his pocket to sprinkle his food
with as 8preVentive against fe- <
yer and ague.. The convention
met; and at dinner, a tall Hoo
sier observed the parson as he
seasoned his meat, and address
ed him thus: sl.sas sSa.
"tStranger, I'll thank you Tor,

The Hoosier took the prCfer-
ed vial, and feeling himself fproot
against any quantity Of raw
whisky, thought he could stand
the cred salt with impunity.
Accordingly he sprinkled a
chunk of beef rather bountifully
with it, and forthwith introduc-
ed it into his capacious mouth.
1t soon began to take hold He
shut his eyes, and his features
began to writhe, denoting avery
Iinharmonious condition physic7

n o longer. He opened his mouth
and screamed, ySfirel "aI : s''

''Will that put it out2" said
the martyr, suiting the action
to the word. In a short time
the unfortunate man began to
recover, and turning to the par
son, his eyes yet swimming in
water, exclaimed: os9hilM ~

Beauty Sleep.

Sleep obtained two hours before
midnight, when the negative forces
are in operation is the rest which
most recuperates the system, giving
brightness to the eye and glow to
the cheek. The differance in the
appearance of a person who habi-
tually retires at ten o'clock and that
of one who sits up until twelve IL
quite remarkable. The tone Of the
system, so evident in the complex
ion, the clearness and sparkle of the
eye, and the softness Of the lines OF
the features, is, in a person OF
health, kept at concert pitch" by
taking regular rest two hours be
fore twelve o'clock, and thereby OBJ
tanning the "beauty sleep" of the
night. There is a heayiness Of thu
eye, a sallowness Of the skin, and
an absence of that glow in the face
which renders it fresh in expires
sion and round in appearance that
readily distinguishes the person
who keeps late hours. 5t7es

A Young Hero and His Reward.
BY HELEN srANNAnD.

Is A SMALL rough house, far
from any other human habita-
ton, hid itself the balmy sum
mer through, amid the surround
ing foliage; ; but che cruel win
try blasts tearing awayits leafy
coverings, left it in desolate ma
kedness,, in full view of the
railway trains, which several
times daily sped noisily by on
their way east and west. The
quick eye of many a traveller
noted the column of smoke curl
ing upward from the chimney.
Here a widowed mother and
her son found a humble shelter.
But three short years before
they were living comfortably in
the nearest village ; the sudden
death of the husband and faith
er combined with a series of les
ser misfortunes caused them to
exchange their pretty home for
this, which they obtained at a
trifling cost from its first propri-
etor.y, ge A psM
; And here they had lived ever
.since-how, their old friends
and neighbors scarcely knew.
True, James, the son, went to
and from the village laden with
numerous packages. His herbs,
nicely picked and carefully as
sorted, were always acceptable
at the country stores; and the
bundles of bright woods he car
ried home, when returned, WOW
en- into many attractive forms
by nimble fingers of the invalid
mother, invariably found ready
and eager purchasers. 4I8f
