Norman declared it to be token
that he was about to be transformed

Trouble will never come near

with overmuch down, gentlemen

natures own guarantee that they
are born to be rich some day, as
rich as those happy individuals
whose front teeth are set wide apart.
Steel belongings, such as keys and
knives, get rusty by instinct, spite
of all pains to keep them clean and
bright, when some klnd-hearted
soal is laying up riches for their
owners benefit. To find a spider
upon ones clothes indicates that
some money is coming to US. The
moral of which, Fuller says, is this;
''Such who initiate the industry OF

Gods blessing, weave themselves

speck upon a finger nail warns the
owner OF the finger gift is on its
way; and the same pleasant mott

that case it is best to make assu-
rance doubly sure, and rub the said
palm against wood, then cit is sure
to be good" Chambers Journal.

From the Laportc (Mich.) Herald.
Some time since, Mrs. Buckel-
by, who lives over in Berrien coun.
ty, directed her son Samuel, a lad
of IA years to take turn at the
churn. Now as Samuel had set his
heart on going fishing at that very
time, he "got his back up" and fiat.
ly refused to agitate The cream.
The curvature was promptly taken
out of his spine by slipper, and with
"tears in his eyes," he went on du-
ty with the dasher. In about half
an hour, and during the brief alb
sence of his mother, his eyes tell
upon a plate Of fly-poison, and a
bright, smart thought struck him.
Just before Mrs. B. came in, Samu.
el lifted the fatal platter to his face,
and as she entered he put the "poi-
son" from his lips with the dramat-
ic expression: "Thcrc, mother, l
guess You won't lick me no more!"
No what did this Spartan dame do?
Did she shriek for doctor and fall
into Mysteries? Not much. She
simply took Samuel by the nape of
the neck, lifted him deity into the
pantry, beat the white of six eggs
together, and told him to engulf the
same instantcr; he refusing, she cal
led the hired girl, and in twink
ling Sam found himself outside the
albumen. Then Mrs. B. began pre-
pairing a mustard emetic. Seeing
this, Sans pluck dissolved, and he
commenced begging, crying, 81 was
only tryin' to skeer ye." But the
stern mother was not to be .softencd,
and Samuel had to swallow the mus.
tard. He was then forced to take
a dose Of pain-kiIlcr, and had his
back rubbed with the "Vigor of
Lite" and his stomach with the
"Oil of Gladness. Then he vomi,-
cd up everything but his boots and
socks. This being over, he took
seven Ayers pills, two spoontuls of
castor oil, a teaspoontul of salts and
u blue pill. And now, if you want
to behold the maddest boy in Mich
igan, just say "Ay poison" to Sam
Buckleby.

who, living some distance from
London, had no chance of gaining
any Information about him.
At this point George Denton took
up the narrative. His first step had
been to obtain sight Of the body;
he had found peculiar mark on
the right side of the neck, which
had led to the suspicion that, in
stead of being the. body of David
Birch, it was that of notorious
burglar with whom he had several
times been brought in contact, in
the course OF his professional work.
This was further proved when he
found on inquiry that Lighttingered
Joe, as he was called, was missed
from his accustomed haunts, and
one OF his associates remembered
having seen him in the neighbor.
hood of Putnam on the night named.
Upon making inquiries in that To-
cality, George learned that a market
gardener had been asking whether
anyone was missing, as a man un.
known was lying ill at his cottage.
Thus, step by step, the detective
.unraveled the mysterious affair. It
was thought that the drowned man
had ended his nights work by get
ting drunk, and, losing his way IN
the dark, had fallen into the river.
This was the history of the mistake
through which the young carpenter
had suffered. But the old bird fam
cier seemed ANXIOUS to make up
matters by q full reconciliation with
his nephew, satisfying his grand
daughter by his unexpected liberal
ity toward the brother and sister,
not forgetting reward to George
Denton. Polly made no secret OF
her feelings toward John, and it was
easy to see how it would end with

II is only women scithout % title
that must have no privileges. Wo-
man in her own simple self, with
nothing but what God gave her,
plain, democratic woman, is not
deemed worthy Of honor and pub
licity. With a crown on her brow,
she may enter parliaments, and gov
ern empires. With only her own
simple personal virtues, she may
not lift up her hand to cast vote!
If she represent a power, q state, an
art, \ class, if she only stand upon
an aristocratic base, she is INDUCED.
But woman, in her own nature, and
representing her own self, is dis
owned and rebuffcd! Now as q
Christian democrat, assert for her
every right and every privilege that
aristocracy accords her. That
which is good enough for queen
is not too good for my wife. That
which is noble in duchess is hon
orablo in my daughter.-Henry
Ward Beecher, ~
