WOMEN AT HOME.

A poetical writer has said that some
men move through life as band OF
music moves down the street, flinging out
pleasure on every side through the air to
every one, far and near, that can listers
Some men fill the air with their strength
ana sweetness as the orchards in October
days I'LL the air with ripe fruit. Some
women cling to their own houses like the
honeysuckle over the door; yet, like it fill
the region with the subtle fragrance of
goodness. How great bounty and
blessing is it so to hold the royal gifts Of
the soul that,they shall be music to some,
fragrance 20 others, and life to all It
would be no unworthy thing to live for,
to make the power which we have within
us the breath OF other mems ioy to fill
the atmosphere which they must stand
in with brightness which they cannot
create for themselves.

RICH WITHOUTMONEY.

Many man is rich without money.
Thousands of men with nothing in
their pockets are rich. Il man born
with good, sound constitution, a
good heart, good limbs and pretty
good headpiece, is rich. Good bones
are better than gold; tough muscles
better than silver; and nerves that
fash fire and carry energy to every
function are better than houses or
land. 1t is better than a landed es-
tate to have the right kind Of father
Or mother. Good breeds and bad
breeds exist among men as really as
among herds and horses. Education
may do much to check bad tendencies
or to develop good ones, but it is a
greater thing to inherit the right
proportion Of faculties to start with.
The man lsrich who has good
disposition-who is naturally kind,
patient, cheerful and hopeful.

WORK A BLESSING.

Many young men have fathers that
are we'll off, and they have no ambi-
ton, and no particular prospect.
They scorn atrade. A man that is
too well-born for trade is very we'll
born for gallows! Thousands Of
parents, who, byindustry, have gain
ed position which enables them to
destroy their children, take the
surest means Of accomplishing their
destruction by encouraging them in
idleness, and allowing them as they
grow up to feel that it is disgraceful
to work at whatever manual labor
best suits his talents, no matter
whether his father is a minister, or a
lawyer, or it Senator, or the Presid-
dent of the United States. Many
young men are looking forward upon
life with the general idea that they
are going to enjoy themselves. They
are provided with all nesdful physical
comforts, and they mean to be happy.
They have no trade. They slight
their profession Their whole gov
erning principle in life is to shirk
anything like work; and they expect
to have enjoyment without industry
But no man in this world will be
happy who violates the fundamental
law of industry. You must work il
you are going to be happy man.
1 know you think it is hard: but il
God had meant that you should be 8

moth or miller,bu a man, you mus
accept the conditions of your man
hood. And if there is one princlpl.
that is more important at the yer,
threshold Of life than another, it ii
that man IS born to aoork.

The forsaking ofevil isnot enough.
No man can easily forsake evil
except by taking hold on good.
Industry is the cure of idleness, "Let
him that stole steal no more, but
rather let him labor, working with
his hands the thing which is good"
says the apostle. Work is cure for
dishonesty, if man works at right
things hard enough andlong enough.
The way to attack any evil is to put
into the place Of it it's opposite.

CUREFORDIPHTHERIA.

The ravages of diphtheria in Australia
have been so extensive within the last
few years that the Government offered
large reward for any certain method of
cure, and among other responses to
this was one by Mr. Gresthead, who at
first kept bis method q secret, but after
wards committed it freely to the public.
It is simply the use of snlpkuric acid, OF
which four drops are diluted IN threes-
fourths of tumbler of water to be
administered to a grown person and
smaller desc to children, at intervals not
specified. The result is said to be a
coagu alton Of the diptheritic membrane
and its ready removal by coughing. It
is asserted that where the case thus treat
ed has not advanced to a nearly fatal
termination. the patient recovered in al.
most every instance.

A HUNDRED FLORINS FOR A
SINGLE HAIR.

Here is very pretty story from
Vienna, told by one Of the papers in
that city:
ga few days ago young and
poorly. clad girl entered BARRIERS
shop in Vienna. and told the pro
prietor that he must buy her head. =
The friseur examined her long, glossy.
chestnut locks, and began to bargain.
He could give eight gulden. and no
more. Hair was plentiful this year,
the price had fallen, there was less
demand, and other phrases Of the
kind. The little msiden's eyes filled
with tears. and she hesitated a
moment while threading her fingers
through her chestnut locks. She
finally threw herself into chair,
in Gods name,' she gasped, take
it quickly The barber, satisfied
with his bargain, was about to clinch
it with his shears, when gentleman
who sat half shaved, looking on,
told him to stop. my child" he
said. why do you want to sell your
beautiful hair2' My mother has
been nearly five months i'll; I can't
work enough to support us; every
thing has been sold or pawned, and
there is not penny in the house,
| (uad klein kreutser IN haus), No, DO,
my child said the stranger, if that
is the case, I will buy your hair, and
I will give you hundred gulden for
it. He gave the poor girl the note,
the sight Of which had dried her
tears, and took up tbs barber
shears. Taking the locks in his
hand. he took the longest hair, cut ii
eff alone, and put it carefully in his
pocket book. thus paying 100 forms
for a single hair. He took the poor
girls address, in case he should
want to buy another at the same
rate. This charitable man is only
designated as the chiet..of grea

AN ENGLISH REMEDY.

Liverpool has long been the greatest
drunkard manufacturing city in the world,
in proportion, to population. and the
British authorities have recently ordered
the trial of new remedy for the evil The
plan was suggested by Mr.. Gladstone, and
it was to publish the names of those who
were seen liz public drunk. Every Monday
morning list of the public drunkards is
published in all the daily papers, giving
the names and occupations of the
transgressors in full. This very con-
spicious proclamation of their disgrace
seems to have done more good than any
other measure yet devised. for the weekly
cases have fallen off one third, and arrests
for other crimes in The same proportioa.
1t is a singular means, bat if 1t will
deter men from getting drunk, we do not
know why 1t would not be an easy and
practical remedy.

with big comrade, but the State

furiously. ran toward the city, past
the home of his enemy, No fight.

repeated the maneuver, this time
calling out his assailant. The little
dog ran straight to his friend, who
lay perfectly still until pursuer and
pursued were within rod of him,
when he flew out from his tree and
killed the State street dogin second.

Clothed in innocence to go;

That your loss is but their gain.
All, the parents think Of this,
But remember more the kiss

And the prin5 Of finger-tips

With their pretty winsome ways.

The Grant Parish PrieOnere.

As has reaGy been announced, all the
testimony against accused was before the
jury last Thursday evening, and yesterday
morning District Attorney Beckwith COM
nenced HE opening speech. The court
room was filed By people representing
almost every grade of society, the greatest
feature being the large attendance of ladies.
and closed at half past one o'clock. He sur
prised even some OF his best friends by his
display of vigor and clesrness, especially
when it is remembered that he has not
taken single note or used the report made
by shorthand reporters. From opening
until closing the audience listened to him
attentively, although he simply touched the
surface of the case-leaving solder argu-
ments for the close.
Mr.. Mari, for defense, followed Mr.. Beck
with, and placed his case before the jury
with considerable force, looking at it from
his standpoint. Mr.. Ellis or Mr.. Whitaker
will come next. and probably Mr.. Bryon
will make short speech. Thus it will be
seen that the district attorney must con-
tend with an array of legal talent quite
formidable. In finishing it is expected that
he will make the best effort of his life at the
bar, and if the jury is unable to render a
speedy verdict it will not be his fault
Should counsel complete speech making to-
day, and that is not altogether likely, Judge
Woods will, if there remains sufficient time,
deliver his charge to the jury. However, it
is not supposed that he can do this before
Monday or Tuesday.

which are performed and sung by minstrels
to this day. In his own peculiar line ne
was good comedian and a true artist.
