We take the following account Of a sale
Of blooded cattle at Greensburg onthe 2jih
of March from the Herald Of that place
The Herald says:
Considering the recent panic in money
matters, the sale is a tOlerable good one
although the prices are not wha; they
would have been year ago.
Our farmers can see 10y this sale that it
pays better to keep good stock than to
waste feed on sn inferior quality. BLOOD

Dead, but not Buried,
BY T. 3. ALDRICH.

When a friend dies and is buried.
there's an end of him. We miss him
for space out Of our daily existence :;
we mourn for him by degrees that be-
come mercifUlly less; we cling TO the
blessed hope that we shall be reunited
in some more perfect sphere; but so
far as this earth IS concerned, there S
an eni Of him. However near and
dear he was, the time arrives when he
does rot form a part OF our daily
thought; he ceases to be>even an alb
straction. We 90 no moro with fow-
ers and tears into the quiet cemetery :;
only rain and snow fakes fall there :;
We leave it for the fingers of spring to
deck the neglected mould. 49,
Butwhen our friend vanishes, unae-
countably in the midst of a crowded
city, or goes off on a sea voyage and IS
never heard Of again, his memory has
a singular tenacity. He may be to all
intents and purposes dead to US, but
We have not lost him. The ring of
the door bell at midnight may be his
ring the approaching footstep may be
his footstep; the unexpected letter
with foreign postmark may be from bis
hand. He haunts US as the dead never
can 5.
The woman whose husband died last
night may marry again within lustre
of. months. Do you suppose week
passes by when the woman whose hus-
band disappeared mysteriousIy ten
years ago does. not think of him?
There are moments when the opening
of a door must startle her.
There is no real absence but death.

An Extensive Beehive.

How doth the little busy bee %
inquiries Dr.. Bowe. It doth very much
indeed at Los Angeles, where there ex-
lists at this moment the largest
hive in the world. 1t is a fsSure of a
rock, the opening of which is seventeen
feet wide, and the depth of which is
one hundred and sixty feet. Innumer-
able swarms Of bees have made this
cavern their home, and have accumnla-
ted enormous quantities Of honey. 1t
is calculated that there must be many
thousands of tons of it. The inhabi-
tants of the country have more than
once, although the approach of the fis-
sure is difficult, to drive away the bees
and take. possession of the treasure,
but they have always been repulsed with
loss. We cannot but think that the
tame surrender of, so magnificent a
prize as the wax and honey contained
IN a hive one hundred and sixty feet
deep, shows lamentable want of en-
terprise in the population Of Los An
geles, and are disposed to suggest that
they should call in foreign aid.-Re-
sources Of California.

4 Prominent Brewer Abandons
the Business.

A great sensation has been produced
in Newark, \. j., by the action of Mr..
John A. Boppe in renouucing his bust
ness as a brewer. He is one of the
largest and wealthiest brewers of New
ark, has been in the business twenty
five years, and amassed fortune es-
timated at half million. His beer
is in great demand all through New
York City. A few weeks ago he aban-
doned his business, discharged his
brewers, and declared he should not
brew any more beer. He tells his
story thus:
"Three years ago, | stopped drinking
any kind of beer or liquor, and have
not tasted drop since. Latterly | be-
gan to think that it was inconsistent
for me to. make for others what | deem
ed hurtfui to myself. When | finally
came to the conclusion that my busi-
ness was wrong, and that to continue
in it would simply be to outrage my
conscience. | promptly resolved to stop,
and [ have done it, [ intend that this
building, if used at all in future, must
be devoted to some other purpose.
My action is not the result Of religious
excitement or conversion, but con-.
victi0n of what. was my duty. | sup
pose that good many germans will
take ofense at what / have done. and
[ am very sorry, The brewers, too,
will be offended but once con yiced, as
l am, that intemperance is the great
curse OF the world, [ shall never have
anything to do with beer making. The
Germans are sensitive on the question,
but [ guess, on. second thought, they
will admit my right to hold my own.
views | certainly would not interfere,
with theirs, Since getting out of the
traffic, / have felt like new man-as-
though load had been lifted from nay
conscience.

pride, said: ''Here it is, SIR
Mr.. w, taking one look at the
check and then at the boy, said:
"Ioung man, come in here; you are
just the one | have been looking for"
And giving him a desk, he set him to
work. In time our young friend ad-

that to theheal OF The firm, and in
time retired, in lis II er years. full of
wealth and honor.

! Temperance Hymn.

20
Mine ears have caught the footballs Of
the coming Of the Lord,
He is marshalling His squadrons, He
has girded on His sword;
The timid and the silent, they are mus
tering at His word,
Our God is marching on !
Glory, glory, halleluiah
Glory, glory, halleluiah
Glory, glory, halleluiah,
Our God is marching on
There were faint and distant. steppings
that our dull ears scarce could
hear.
There were nearer sounds Of tramping,
there were signs Of beding fear;
There's mighty, rushing onset, for
the Lord himself is here,
His day is marching on!
Glory. gloey, halleluiah
Glory, glory, hallelujah :!
Glory, glory, halleluiah
Our God is marching on!
From the closet and the prayer-room
tones Of hallowed wrestling swell,
Up from " "sample-room" and & cellar"
ring the maddened cries Of. he'll,
Where shall wave the victor's banner,
grandest words of promise tell,
-'Fis God that's marching on
Glory, glory, halleIuiah
> Glory, glory, halleIuiah
Glory, glory, halleluiah!
Our God is marching on
Sisters, up, for He is passing. Rise,
to-day He calls for thee.
Yours has been the heavy anguish;
you shall share the victory.
Lo, the might Of God is in you, yo
shall triumph gloriously,
For He is marching on!
Glory, glory, halleIaiah
Glory, glory, hallelujah
Glory, glory, halleluiah

4 True Story.

Tact is one of the first qualifications
Of a business man, and the following
little incident in the history of G. G.,
one Of the most successful merchants
shows development of this trait early
in his business career. Coming to New
York from the country, without friends
and with very little money, he found his
way to the Lower Wall Street, . and
walking into the store of ". Il Co.,
passed back into the counting room and
waited modestly and patiently till he
diverted the attention of Mr. W-,who
was busily engaged with some business
friends At last the frank, opentace Of
the boy attracted his notice, and he ad-
dressed him with =
"What can | do for you, sonny
81 want a place, sir. !.
"Well, what can you do?"
The boy answered eagerly, "Most
anything, sir
Mr., W partly for joke, and
partly to rid himself of the almost too
confident boy said:
"Ah, ah! Well, just. go out and
borrow me a couple of thousand dol
lars.
The lad placed his hat on his head,
walked out of the store, then walked

Love Of the Beautiful.

Place a young girl under the care Of
a kind hearted, graceful woman, and
she unconsciously to herself grows in
to a graceful lady. Place a boy in the
establishment Of a thorough-going,
straightforward business man, and. the
boy becomes a self~reliant. practical,
business man. III i ..f = :..,
Children are susceptible creatures, and
