The Prescription.

II Wish you would tell James,
when he comes in to turn the cows
in the lower lot. And if Turpin
calls, tell him | have concluded to
take those sheep. Iwant the Mer-
mos. And while / am getting
ready, please take my memoran-
dun book and note down four har-
ness straps, five pounds of nails, and
a gimlet, half a jockey strap, and
and yes, believe that is all. l
found them when l made out the
items this morning."
Mrs. Streeter rose wearily, laid
her sleeping babe carefully in its
crib, and proceeded to record the
articles named. She was young
not over twenty-five, but the blonde
complexion was sadly faded, the
brown hair, thin and lustreless, and
faint lines were already marking
the forehead, while the tired eyes
told of care and limited strongly of
an unsatisfed heart.
And this thin-cheeked, pink-lip-
ped woman had been called beau
ty only seven years before. She
had been admired and petted, but
not spoiled. And when she gave
her hand to Newton Strecter, she
could say what SO few girls of cigh-
teen can: 81 married my first
love-"
Judge Strecter, the father, was
supposed to be wealthy. But soon
after his sons marriage, a financial
crisis came and his thousands
dwindle6 into hundreds.
1t was false pride, perhaps, but
the young man shrank from a posi-
ton under those who had once look
ed up to him. And his thoughts
turned wistfully toward tho West
ern praries, where the sum he could
now call his own, would render
him Independent of others at least.
He expected objections from his
young and accomplished wife. But
she saw with his eyes, and was not
only willing, but eager, to go and
help him make q home that should
be all their own. The purchasing
of prairie team, some farming
implements, and the expense of
building small house, exhausted
his entire capital; and the young
couple began their married life as
many others had done who had not
been blessed with their advantages.
A hired man seemed necessary on
the farm, but q girl could be dis
pensed with. Indeed, the small
dwelling contained three sleeping
apartments, and this fact, added
to their uncertain income, induced
Mrs. Streeter to take upon herself
the entire care of the household.
She was a systematic housekeep-
er,-abhored dirt in all its phases,
and the rich, alluvial soil seemed
ever haunting her, like taunting
spirit that would not be appeased.
In dry weather it was a fine, black
dust that found its way every
where; and in wet it became q
smutch that was hardly less aggra-
waiting.
Two children had come i'm the
seven years to nestle in her bosom
But one fairy child of three sum-
mers, had slid away from them, and
was now sleeping beneath the flow
ers of the prairie. And the tired
wife had sighed as she looked on the
cold, folded hands.
"She will never toll as / have
done, but oh, 1 have wanted her sc
much," the lonely mother sobbet
forth.
Mr.. Streetcr was now considered
q wealthy farmer. His acres hat
broadened and his stock increased

put on city airs, and the stoau

UnspOken Language.


The language of hand-clasp,
How eloquent, though mute,
Implanting hope and courage where
Despair h nd taken root.
II tells the "old old story"
With fervor all its own,
Has won a thousand eonquests, too,
Where failed the tender tone.
The language of gesture,
An eager, beckoning hand;
Or farewell waved from vessels side
To loving ones on land;
How often has n gesture
Conveyed the silent "no,"
That crushed some fondly cherished dream,
And hlled heart with woe.
The language of tear-drop,
The language of sigh,
The language Of n mute caress,
Or smile of sympathy
Who has not read their import,
Or felt their silent sway!
Long as the heart shall love and trust
Will men their power obey.
Can words be more expressive
Than the language of the cye'
1t tells the truth when lips are false,
Their utterance twill deny.
BY words alon, each other
We can but know in part;
1t is "unspoken language"
Rcvcaleth heart 10 heart.

The porter Of a Detroit store
heard a voice in the alley as he was
locking up the other night, and he
investigated to flud that au cid man
had taken possession of a hogshead
for the night, and that he was pray
ing. The old fellows petition went
right to the heart of the porter, and
he called him out and questioned
him, and finally gave him a dollar.
He went TO the front of the store to
lock it, and while he was gone the
praying man stole his new coat and
a pair of boots, and made good his
escape.

ity aud foresight not to deny the charges brought

man suit set up that 1t has beou common prao-
tico III illinois (aud they might have added ip

make contracts on tho part Of tho Company
