was lost and papa's house could not
be seen, nor any place that looked
familiar to the baby's eyes; and
how he was hungry and by and by
so tired, and then it grew dark and
he said his little prayer and lay
down to slecp-sure, in his childish
faith, that papa or mamma would
con before morning; 'Jtcluse ]

TOOthache.
BY CON G. QCENCE.

The very thought of having the
toothache makes me as nerv-
Gus as calls tail in mosquito
time. / believe it is the most re-
lentless ache in the world, except
the aching of huge toe-corn after
being trod on. Many men subject
to nervousness, will agree with me
when l say that a person afflicted
with toothache will never listen to
anything of consoling nature, but
will snap and growl at everything
and everybody within a mile and a
half.
I, myself, am not of a nervous
temperament, and therefore can
control my feeling under circum-
stances of affliction. One winters
night, when the thermometer indi-
Gated fifteen degrees below zero, !
was awakened about twelve o'clock
by an acute pain in my upper north
jaw. i turned over in bed, and
shutting my eyes, made an attempt
to again go to sleep, but it didn't
work. That tooth had no notion of
allowing me to sleep. l got up and
lit light. I walked the floor for
two hours, kicking over chairs and
other movable furniture. stepped
on the cats tail, fell over the dog,
and in the fall upset the stove. l
don't remember whether / swore
any or not, but it is safe to conclude
that | did. l reused Arabella with
the intention of having her put a
little laudanum and bale of cot
ton in that tooth, but women are all
so slow that the most patient man
in the world would lose his temper
on such an occasion and with fire.
shovel in hand she induced me to
return to bed. But toothache don't
care for a mans rest or for strong
minded oman's frowns. At four
o'clock l dressed myself and started
for the dentists residence. To-
gether we proceeded to his Office,
and as l seated myself in the cush-
ioned chair, / was relieved from all
pain. My tooth had ceased to ache,
so | concluded that l would not al
low the offender to be extracted.
/ returned home to find my wife
very much out of humor, and she
said there was no use Of making
such fuss over a little toothache.
But that wasn't the last of
that toothache. 1t got me out of
bed every night for two weeks, and
was the means of making my house
hold anything but happy. / think
l used more profanity in that two
weeks than / shall ever be forgiven
of. At last / could stand it no
longer, and with the untiring as
sistance of my friend DR.. Watrous
I was relieved Of further pain
from that source.
But never see man who has
an aching tooth without sympathiz-
ing with the poor unfortunate be-
ing. And / am now of the opinion
that tho best remedy for aching
teeth is to put little salt in the
hollow tooth, and sit up nights for
it to dissolve. Try It.

The Twins.

The Twins.
/ knew two beautiful children,
OF the same parents born;
One was bluek-eyed daughter,
The Other n bluo-eyed son;
And their ages were nearly a. even
As if they had been one.
And knew the anxious father
And mother of this pair,
And how they watched the growth Of each
With daily loving caro-,
Until in time they had grown to DO
A 10y and maiden fair.
Till now they had played together,
Along the stream OF time,
Drinking the same clear waters,
Singing the same sweet chime;
But when they reached life's hillside
Each needed help to climb.
For the waters now divided
And in different channels ran-
The girl became woman
And the boy became a man;
And each put on tho marriage curb.
And raised separate clan.
And tis ever thus In nature,
All are sped along the way
The bud, the blossom, then tho leaf,
OF autumn in decay
And from the dark haired infant
To the old man bent and gray.

"The Great SOnIh."

A series of illustrated papers in
"Scribner's Monthly" for 1874, by
Edward King, with superb illustra-
tions by Champney.
This series of articles was begun
n Scribner's Monthly for November,
1873, and will be continued from
month to month until December,
1874 The articles already prepared
have occupied more than a year of
constant and painstaking study by a
practical journalist, who has thus far
visited nearly every city and town of
any Importance in the Southern
States; talked with men of all classes
and conditions; carefully investigated
all manufacturing enterprises and
sites; collated statistics; studied the
course of politics in each State since
reconstruction began; explored rivers,
md penetrated into mountain re-
gions heretofore rarely visited by
Northern men.
He has been accompanied during
the entire journey by conscientious
nd talented artist, the sprightly
Champney, pupil and friend of that
distinguished Frenchman, Edouard
Frere, the prince of the school of
sympathetic art in Europe; and this
artist has made several hundred
thorough and finished studies of
Southern types of men and things,
which in due time will be presented
to the readers of Scribner's Monthly.
The friends of the magazine have al
ready had an earnest of what they
may expect in the line of pictures in
November, December, January, and
February numbers, whose illustra-
tions are universally pronounced the
best presented in an American mag
azine. The varied street life of New
Or cans, the wild panorama of the
Mississippi River, the semi-Spanish
costume and manners of Western
Texas, and the rude scenes of the
Southwestern frontier, have thus far
been presented, and are to be followed
by e. series of beautiful sketches,
illustrative of Southern mountain
life and character.
