Wooden Shoes.

Experience has shown that
number of diseases, often resulting
in impaired constitutions, and even
in the loss of life, have been con-
tracted by a portion of the farming
and laboring population in conse-
quence Of wearing leather shoes
when engaged in their operations
during cold weather, or IN wet situ-
alton. To prevent those evils to
some extent, wooden shoes are ex-
trnsively worn in France and Ger
many. They are highly recon-
mended by the agricultural societies
and governments of Europe. I'm
pressed with their Importance, the
Board of Commerce and Trade of
Winterburg called a practical work
man from France to give instrUc-
ton in their manufacture Not al
lowing water to penetrate, as leather
shoes do, they are naturally drier,
capable of keeping the feet warmer,
prevent diseases by promoting the
requisite and salutary respiration,
and are regarded, to great extent,
as life preservers, even in such cases
where salt baths, the use of wheys,
and other medicaments proved quite
Intellectual. There is hardly al
operation on the farm and about the
house in which they could not be
proftably nsed. They are most
economical about stables, where
leather shoes are exposed to the de-
structive attacks of dung water.
in blowing. moving, harvest
ing, in doing earth work in vine
yards, chopping wood, and in mar
keting.
With these advantages, in sa
lutary point of view, they combine
such durability as to last almost
lifetime. They are light and easy to
wear, being provided with a small
cushion on the upper side within, so
as to obviate any pressure on that
part of the foot. They are of
neat and pleasant appearance, either
of their natural color, or blackened,
or vanished. Their price in Ger
many ranges from fourteen to thir-
ty-sIx cents-shoes for children be
ing still less. These advantages
will certainly entitle them to the at
tention of portion of the farming.

A Russian Tragedy.

The following incident concerning
a Young betrothed couple is said TO
have occurred at Moscow: The girl
was of great beauty. the lover was
the son of rich parents, and on her
birthday obtained leave to celebrate
it with fetes 10 be given at her IA
theirs house. The first evening at
dinner the young man drank deeply
and became intoxicated, when his
conduct was so violent that the
guests all retired, and he was with
difficulty conveyed to his fathers
house. The next day, however, he
presented him> elf at the ball he had
arranged, and danced with his be-
trothed. When the dance was ended
the young lady requested the band
to play a favorite air, and retired on
the balcony, whence, Immediately
afterward, was heard the sound of
firearms, and the young lady was
found to have shot herself through
the heart with a revolver she had
concealed. A letter found upon her
assigned the discovery of her in
tended husbands brutal nature as
the motive for the act.

Sheds mellow luster DER the scene.

Sitting at my window, watching

chilly reminds me of the The Chris.
tian's parting hour" when at the
close of life We shall calmly and
peacefully pass away. This ia one
of those warm, pleasant winter
days, which brings in play our
warmer feelings, makes the cheek
glow, the eye sparkle, the heart
soften, renews the thought that
pleasant days are coming, and makes
me almost wish my home was in
far-away sunny cline. where these
northern winds and blasts do not
freeze into icy coldness the warmer
feelings of my Impulsive nature;
and yet, as gaze out upon the bare
branches of the forest trees, and the
more generous ones-whleh sur
round my home-that yield such
comfort, when their harvest comes,
as the dried grass, and the withered
leaf | can but acknowledge that
our God is great, and that all things
in nature are adapted to, or for our
good; that Spring, with her burst
ing bud, unfolding leaf; Summer,
with her showers and sunshine. dc.
veloping into fuller life, what spring
has failed to do; Autumn with her
sober air, and paler sun, yielding
up all that spring and summer gave
her; Winter, with his chilling blasts,
making bare and taking from his
predecessors all the happiness and
glory they had struggled to bestow.
Then the thought comes, all these
changes are intended for the differ
ent beings God has placed here, and
as | watch the calm, receding day
light fade away my only wish is
that my life may thus glide away
with no struggling to bring back
the fading light.
What unspeakaDle Joy 1t must be
to the weary, dying christian, when,
at the close of life, when the last
iickering light is gong ont, to cast
the eye to yondcr fair cline, and see
the light of the Son of God in all
its brilliancy.
"Oh, ye mansions of blessed
nesss," ye beauties of my fathers
house which far Outshine these Of
the visible world, ''transmit your
sweet and winning invitations" to
my heart
when faith presents the SayiOr's death,
And whispers this is thine,
Sweetly my rising hours advance,
And peacefully decline.-IIERvEY.
