Mules and Women.

Some unknown party writes me as follows:
Mr.. M quad please advise me In your next
column what to do with kicking muel Shell

my wife is also trecherous as the muel
believe her tongue is hung on the middle and
tlis at both ends L.. Il. Z.
My dear man you have come to just the
right person for honest advice, If you had
written to Henry Ward Beecher, Wendell
Phillips, or Dio Lewis, they would have paid
no attention to your letter; or they would have
deceived you if they had. | know all about
women and mules. In fact, married a
mu-a woman, L mean; and have owned
more or less mules since my birth.
No, sir don't pound your mule L know 1t
is customary for owners of mules to commence
on the animal at sunrise with a crOwbar and
pound him until bed time but | have always
found kindness more successful. Seek to gain
the friendship of your mule, and, as soon as
you succeed, You can do anything with him.
When you go into the barn in the morning,
have kind word for him, instead of knocking
him down with the neck yoke. Ask after the
health Of his family-show him that you are
interested in his welfare-be civil and yet dig.
nifed; and as soon as that mule finds out that
some one in this cold world loves him, he will
| be differnt mule.
| All mules kick, my dear sir just as all men
love to hold fat Office. But there remedy
for it. Get an old stove-boier fill it with
BRICKS and hang it by rope so that it will just
swing against the animals heels. Every time
he kicks it will fly back, like the pendulum ol
a clock, and the patience of the most enduring
mule will, in time, wear out tried this once
and the mule kicked twenty-four days anC
nights before he surrendered but, after that
you might ruu steamboat on to his heels, anC
he wouldn raise q hOof.
Feed your mule well. | know Of farmers
who throw a keg Of nails or an old sappan int
the manger, and expect mule to grow fat OF
such forage but it embitters their feelings
and makes 'em more set in their ways. y
course, | don't say you must feed mule OIL
fried eggs, currant Jelly, raisin cake, and tn
like of that; but don't expect he can feed OIL
rails, and feel enthusiastic all the time.
About your wife, Don't try to stop her iron
talking unless yon want to kill her. It's natu
raj for woman to talk, sir My first wifi
used to nearly kill me; but | now remembe
with strict grief how | deliberately planne
her death. | bet ten dollars that she cOuldn'

President Grant at Camp Meeting.

President Grant visited Round Lake IN. Y. J
Camp Meeting last week. A vast cOngrega-
ton was assembled at the tabernacle--that is
under the great trees in the middle of the
grove to hear a sermon by the Rev. MIR. Doug
las of Montreal. At 10 o'clock about four
thousand persons were present, prepared, as
usual, to open the exercises with singing when
an unusual cOmmOtOn was visible in the front
seats. 1t was soon whispered around that
President Grant had arrived on the grounds,
and few minutes atterward he was seen
moving to a seat near the pulpit, when order
was restored, the only disorder having been
the standing upon the seats by few ladies.
Bishop James introduced the President to the
people simply by his official title" the Pres
ident of the United States" General Grant
bowed and the people applauded.

pouring of the spirit before he leaves thi

In the opening prayer delivered by one o
the minister's prayer full of devout feeling
and marked by unusual grace of language
there was fervent petition for the blessing
Of the Almighty to descend on this man calet
by Providence to rule over the destinies of tn
nation, and in response there rose up from tn
entire congregation vast "Amen" IA might
invocation full of power and pious earnest
ness. The effect of this spontaneous cry wa
thrilling. They say that General Grant is
man whose emotions are not easily aroused
but it ia difficult to believe that he could hav
heard unmoved that touching appeal.
The entire reception of the President BY th
clergy and the people at the Round LAX
Camp Meeting was in every way appropriat
and decorous While there was natural CT
riosity TO see the face of so celebrated a pei
: sonage, and while he received the attentiO
and courtesy which his high position demanded
there was no tinge of Aattery in the demeanC
of any one. The President was heartily an
sincerely welcomed by men and women VIII
felt that it was good for him to be there.

Then sink away at closing night,
Mid clouds of glorious crimson hue.

Building their nests with anxious care,
The rain will patter on the leaves
But not for us-ws'll not be there.
The rose we planted-sought to train,
Watered and loved as all our own,
Will Ope its petals just the same,
And bloom as fair when we are gone.
The trellised vine will Chamber up,
While humming birds with plumage rare
Will sing above each coral cup
But not for.us-Well not be there.
And stranger forms will love to sit
Beside the easement opened there;
And strangers careless feet will fit
From room to room and stair to stair
And stranger hands those spots will tend,
That we have watched with loving care,
While Natures sweetest Rraces blend
But not tor us-we1l not be there.
