The Golden Side.

There is many a rest on the road of life,
If we only would stop to take it;
And many tone from the better land,
If the QuerulouS heart would wake it.
To the sunny soul that is full of hope,
And whose beautiful trust meier faileth,
The grass is green and the flowers are bright
Though the Wintry storms prevaileth.
Better to hope, though the clouds hang low,
And to keep the eyes still lifted;
For the sweet blue sky will soon peep through
When the ominouS clouds are rifted.
There never was a night without day.,
. Nor an evening without morning;
And the darkest hour, the proverb goes,
Is the hour before the daWning.
There is many gem in the path of life,
Which We pass in our idle pleasure,
That is richer far than the ieWeled crown
Or the miSer'S horded treasure
1t may be the love of little child,
Or q mothers prayer to Heaven,
Or only a beggar's grateful thanks,
For cup of water given.
Better to weave in the web of life
bright and golden filling,
And to do Gods will with ready heart,
And hands that are swift and willing,
Than to snap the delicate silver threads
Of our curious lives aSunder;
And then Heav' n blame for the tangled ends
And sit to grieVe and wonder.
The Jackson standard. [volume] (Jackson C.H., Ohio) 1847-1888, 1873-06-19

The only record, so far as we can re-
member, that the Democratic party in
Ohio, or any portion of it. has made for
itself on the salary steal, was that worked
out by those who reside within the limits
of Hamilton county. Col. Dodds, it has
probably not been forgotten, voted for
the grab with q consistency that would
have been creditable If the object had
been praiseworthy, and took his spoils,
clamoring, it was said, for more than he
secured. Within a week afterWard he
was nominated by the Democratic party
of the county as its candidate for City
Solicitor. Perhaps this is the policy
that is going to be adopted by the party
throughout the State; and perhaps it is
for this reason that the veteran Enquirer
man is not enthusiastic over tho eighth
resolution of the Republican platform
On. Gazette.

Mrs. Dorsey came over to tell me her
plans, to press me to go, and to borrow
my lilac sbarf and lace berthe for Medo-
ra; but the memory of my ruined bridal
SILK strengthened me to refuse both prop
ositions politely but decidedly. The con-
sequence was, the young lady scornfully
cut my acquaintance, and though her
mother kept. up a show of friendliness,
she became more formal, while reports of
my diSdgreeq6Le aoays, by the Dorseys, were
brought to me by my well-meaning
friends
It was the last week of the old year,
and Edgar, looking over his accounts,ex
amined my housekeeping memoranda,
among which had put down the various
articles loaned and never returned.
"You have kept your accounts so well
that you deserve Christmas gift, wife,
and herewith present you one hundred
and fifty dollars. to be collected out of
Mrs Dorsey" then seeing my face cloud
he laughingly said, 1--WE got piece of
good news for you,- darling. Captain
Dorsey told me this evening he had lost
heavily this year. and could not afford to
keep up so much style He moves into
the country next week, so goodbye to

AN UNHEALTHY HoUsE.-A dark house
is always an unhealthy house, always an
ill-aired house, always a dirty house.
Want of light stops growth, and promotes
scrofula, ricketts,, etc., among children.
People lose their health in dark house,
and if they get i'll, they cannot get we'll
again in it. Three out of many negli-
gences and ignoraces in managing the
health of houses generally, l viii here
mention as specimens. First, that the
female head in charge of any building
does not think it necessary to visit every
hole and corner of it every day. Second
that it is not considered essential to air.
to sun, and clean rooms while uninhabit-
ed Third, that one window is considered
enough to air o room.-Fgorence NIghtia-

This dodge of the conscientious Con-
gresham who bestows his back pay upon
his constituents is too weak to impose
upon the most charitable. Congressman
Marshall of Illinois talks about dividing
the aforesaid back pay among the coun-
ties composing his district. Whereupon
the local paper remarks: "If the money
honestly belongs to Mr. Marshall of
course he can dispose of it as he pleases.
If the money does not honestly belong
to him, then he would be thief to take
it, and his constituents become receivers
of stolen property" We do not know of
anything which betrays the whole moral
desolation of the matter more decidedly
than this notion that the immortality of
the original robbery can be extenuated
by a genial and philanthropic disposal of
the plunder. 1t betrays great poverty of
perception to suppose that the fraud may
be extenuated by using the money to
propitiate voters.-N Y. Tribune

Wait and See.

When my boy, with eager questions,
Asking how, and where, and when,
Taxes all my store of wisdom,
Asking DER and DER again,
Questions oft to which The answers
Give to others still the key,
I said, to teach him patience,
''Wait, my little boy, and see."
And the words I taught my darling
Taught to me lesson sweet;
Once when all the world seemed darkened
And the storm about me beat,
In the "chiIdren'S room'i l heard him,
With child'S sweet minlicry,
To the baby brothers questions
Saying wisely, "Wait and see."
Like an angels tender chiding
Came the darling's words to me,
Though my Fathers ways were hidden,
Bidding me still wait and see.
What are we but restless children,
Ever asking what shall be?
And the Father, in his wisdom,
Gently bids us t'Wait and see."

SELF-lNDULGENCE AND PoyERTY.--If you
see a widow and five children shiveFihg
over few embers you pity them; but
you cannot help feeling a wrathful con-
tempt at knowing that they all went to
the photographers yesterday and had
their pictures taken, after buying cou-
pie of twenty-five cent brooches, on the
way to adorn themselves withal. The
very things that you yourself would hesi-
tate to do, on account of the expense,
people who are partially dependent on
your charity will doswithout hesitation.
Where you will practice natural, cheer
full unthinking selfdenial, they will
practice an equally cheerful and unthinlZ-
ing self-indulgence. The remnants of
bread that you dry in the oven and save
for future use they throw away. The
fragmentary vest-sleeVe that you fashion
into fat iron holder they put into the
rag bag and buy new cloth for their hold
ers. Where you rise at six they lie till
halfpast seven. Where you walk, they
ride. Where you pray and watch and
strive to do your work thoroughly, they
are content with anything that viii an
swer That is the reason why people are
poor. In this country any any man who
is strong and willing to work can support
himself and all the family he ought to
have. This is not sentimental or a pic
turesque view of poverty; but, SO far as
my observation goes. it is the true one.
