the old time might have looked down upon
the proves of her chosen knight.
There, watching out the struggle between
the two men, she had first learned tho full
worth of the man whom she had already set
on the altar of her heart, the generosity that
would not pry unworthily into the one weak
ness of hel past the manhood that had rcscu-
cd her from hurt, the prudence that knew
how to shield her from even the shadow of
annoyance.
Then and there in tho shadow ofthe wood,
she told him what was in her heart, and
thanked him again and agan-told ii to him
us he held her to him, enlaclng her arms
around him, and looking up into his face with
new and stronger love.
Then these two lovers walked slowly back
together through the shadowy alleys of the
wood; and, just before they came to the
glcam of the lights, she stopped him to say.
Arthur, they say we are like Aucassn
and Nicolette; but l don't think you will
over let your sword drop from your hand in

Not even for love of you?" said Lord
Vereker; and he laughed little.

Camp Meeting John.

The Rev. John Allen, who has long been
Methodist preacher in the Maine Con-
ference, is in many respects II very remark
able man. lie is nearly 80 years old yet rs
vigorous both in body and mind us most men
ut are 80. He has long been known in Maine
as Camp Meeting john" having attended
nearly 500 such gatherings, and one gentle
man remarked from present appearances he
was good for 500 more. His wit is proven
bal throughout tho state. During the late
war he had occasion TO make Il call upon the
pastor of certain village, and notable
wag remarked to his friends, "Let us have
some fun with Camp Meeting John when he
leaves the parsons" So they waited till Mr..
Allen came walking down the street mt his
usual quick pace, when the following con-
versation ensued:
Good morning Mr. Allen. I'm glad to
see YOU" said the wng.
VERY glad to see YOU" replied Mr.. Allen.
you've been calling on our parson."

"Well, will you just tell me how you fell
in the presence of \ gentlcman?"
"Why, bless you, felt there were two
gentlemen together! wish | could say the
same thing now, but can't" and he passed
along, leaving the wag surrounded by the
laughter of his companions.

A Bit of Useful Information.

Lamps have not entirely superseded the
use of tallOw candies, nor will they do so, es-
pecially among the rural farming population.
However much lamps may he preferred to
read by, and for lighting rooms, halls, &C.,
yet, for some uses, candles are to be prefer
red. For "chorins around the house and
the like, nothing is so convenient us candles.
Nothing can beat them, in point of safety
unless it is lamps in which are used oil
which comes from the carcass of that mon
stcr of the briny deep, which, we are assured
by holy writ, kept Jonah in very close Gus.
tody for an unpleasant length of time.
But to the Information which this was
meant TO convey. To many, no doubt it
may be familiar, while to still larger class
it will be new, and perhaps seem trivia. and
foolish. When n candle is "blown out" with
II downward or horizontal pufT-as is un-
pleasantly familiar to all who know any
thing of the use of candles-thc wick holds
fire and continues to burn and smoke. filling
the room with very disagreeahle odor, and
oitentlmes consuming the wick down so near
the tallow rs TO make it very announcement
relIghting it. Now all this "unpleasantness''
may be avoided simply by blowing out the
candle with an upward whitf-that is, by
raising the candle above the head and blow
ing directly up, or rs nearly so rs may be.
That this is even so the writer has learned
by that unerring teacher, experience. The
philosophy which underlies it he will not
pretend to expound-is frank to own he does
not see the "why and wherefore" But so it
is, and the law which governs in the matter
is no doubt very simple, and will appear
when we understand it. Try it, and if nine
times out of ten it does not prove orrect, set
me down rs a false teacher.

The Ultimate Object.

The ultimate object Of the organization OF
the Patrons of Husbandry is for mu tual in.
struction and protection, to tighten labor by
ditfusing knowledge of its aim and purposes,
to expand the mind by tracing the beautiful
laws that the great Creator has established
in the universe, and to enlarge our views Of
creative wisdom and power.
Not content with this lucid exposition of
the ultimate objects of the order, says Cham.
6er'S Rural World, those who are opposed
to it are ever ready to charge upon it the
preparation OF indiscretions for which it is
IN no wise responsible 1t has been so ever
since the order began to attract public atten.
ton. That it will continue to be SO there
is abundant evidence.
The charge that the members OF the order
are opposed to the extension of railways or
to paying fair and reasonable price for
transportation or freightage, has no fouuda-
ton IN TACT. As an order expressly founded
for the benefit of farmers, we expect it to
bring about some reforms, such as that of
protection against organized capital Ac-
cordingly We have adopted it as our fixed
purpose to "open out the channels in natures
great arteries, that the life blood of COM
merce may flow freely" We have declared
that 1--WE are not enemies Of railroads" but
"we arc opposed to such spirit aud manage
ment OF any corporation or enterprise as tends
to Cypress the people and rob them of their
just profits" That 1--WE desire only self.pro-
lection and the protection of every true in-
torest of our land, by legitimate transactions,
Legitimate trade and legitimate profits"
In other words, one Of the well understood
objects Of our order is special opposition to
the general imposition, aud to any and every
thing affecting the attachments of the objects
of the order as enuncated in the declara-
ton of principles adopted by the National
Grange.
The founders of the order well knew that
universal justice was the only sure founda-
ton upon which to build, in order to effect
ually counterfeit the insidious influences of
unjust monopolies which are sustained by
special legislation in their interest. The ag-
gressive power Of organized capital has here
tofore been irresistible. 1t is this which
threatens to subvert good government, and
enslave the producing classes. 1t is this
which has aroused the farmers as class,
and which has aroused every thinking work.
ingman in our country. The spirit Of reck-
lessnsss that is everywhere manifest can only
be checked by organized effort. Happily
for the country the conservative element,
the pillow holders are promptly marching to
the front, aud will hereafter contest inch by
mich the advance inimical to the best interests
and welfare Of the people. The weapons
that will be used in the warfare for the ri ht,

like the angel of death, will vanquish the
combined hosts Of monopoly and extortion,
and the second but not the least OF the ulti-
mate objects of the order, that of protection,
will be attained.

ENCOURAGEMENT.

Why art thou sad, SO sad, my ffiendl
Why is thy spirit crushed
God will TO thee his graces lendi
Then let thy fears be hushed.
No more Of thcO will he require
Than thou canst we'll endure;
With childlike faith this strength desire,
And rest thee calm, secure.
His children he will ne'er forsake,
His promises arc true,
He'll on their pathway ever make
Fall soft his heavenly dew.
Then let thy spirit joyous be,
Let hope spring forth anow,
For God will bear thy burdens free
Thine earthly journey through.
What though chastenings be our LOTT
They are from our Fathers hand,
What though we dwell in lowly cot
While on life's dreary strandi
It's here our souls must DO refined,
And God knows what Is best
To purify and At the mind
For golden mansions blest.
Then checrfully on him thy care
And all thy trouble cast;
And he will give thee jewels rare
To deck thy crown at last.

THE LITTLE WIFE.

The little wife laid her sewing down,
And looked at the clock and said
ut is time that put tho kettle on,
And the cloth on the table spread.
For the clock Is near the stroke Of six
And I've hardly time to see
That the kettle boils and the toast is made.
When John will be home to tea"
The table she drew to the cosiost nook,
And she laid the plates for two,
But they were plain dolf, there was silver none,
And the dishes they were few.
but butter and bread and some cake and fruit.
Ali dainty as they can be,
And the cloth is white" said the little wife,
THAT is what John likes to see."
The little wife took out a dressing gown
And spread on a cushioned chair,
And before 1t PAIR ofslippers placed,
Far too large for her to woar;
And she patted the gown and softly said.
'Lie there, that ysu warm may be,
For the night is cold-for John to puto
When he shall come to tea"
The little wife smoothed and braided her hair,
And put on prettier dress,
bit of soft lace and knot of gray silk,
To finish it at the breast
Ihen she looked in the glass and blushed and smiled
tAnd she was a fair picture to soeD
And excused herself "John will be SO pleased
With the dress when he comes home to tea"
But it must be late, the kettle has boiled,
And the toast is getting dry.
1t Is growing dark, and the street lamps shine,
But the footsteps all pass by.
The little wife peeps out the front hall door,
Then runs to the garden rate.
But he does not come, and "Oh, dear" she sghs,
otis tiresome thing to wait"
Then she tries to read, but whether or no
The tale was gloomy or gay,
She could not have told for restless thoughts
With her heart are far away.
Again and again to the front hall door
She goes to look up the street,
Each far away footstep making her heart
With hope to faster beat.

With pout and an ugly frown;
I'D like to know what, at this time of night,

II he cared for mo he would surely come;
But I've often heard it said
And half believe it now-that man
Loves only till hos wed.
"But he shall not know, if 1t breaks my heart,

Her cheeks are so red, and her eyes are so bright
So she looks at the vacant chair,
And her knife falls down, and "Oh DEAR she says

John would never stay il he was alive"
The little wife sobbingly said
Sand so all this time I've been blaming him,

"Why, bless me, what's this ~ says n manly voice,
Tender as tender can be,
And the clock is just pointing to halfpast six,
And John has come home to tea
