y PRAcr1cAL CHR1sT1AMIrY.--That
was o practical sort of Christianity
which the Rev. Mr.. Williams, al
old-time minister at Dudley, Mass,
is said to have taught. It is related
of him that when midway in his
sermon on sultry Sunday, he
heard the sound of distant thun-
der; he glanced out of the window
once Or twice, stopped preaching,
and remarked: Brethren, I OBJ
serve that our Brother Crosby is
not prepared for the rnin. think
it our duty to help our Brother
Crosby get in his hay before the
shower" Stepping down from the
pulpit, he went with several of the
brethren to the bayfield, and work
ed there for half an hour, when
the hay was housed. Then, re-
turning to the church, he took up
the thread of his sermon where he
had left it, and preached straight
through to his "fifteenthly" and
finally" without an omission.

Watts. 1. at.!s Ss.i!.i..4 *
,"1 know where you 60, sir, when
you stay away from home" CONT
nued Mrs. Watts. f'I've heard the
story Of your perfdy. CANT you
tell me how Rachel and that other
woman is to-day" she. asked with
forced .calmness. MIR. Watts con-
fessed his inability to enlighten her
on the health of the ladies about
whom she was SO soicitous. Mrs.
Watts said that she always knew
that something like this would oc-
cur, and ended with another hyste-
rical interrogation after the chill
dren's health, but not receiving
any satisfactory answer, she threw
herself on the sofa again, and sob
bed and asked herself q few times
why she ever left her mother; and
then she called Jakey to her, and
told him that they would have to
live alone in little house and be
very poor, and maybe not have
enough to eat, which made that
hopeful utter series of most dole
full howls, and hasten down to the
kitchen to examine the larder.
Later in the day, Mrs. Lewis
happened in, and Mrs. Watts con-
fided to her the story OF her nus
bands villainy. OF course, Mrs.
Lewis was very properly shocked,
and tried to impress upon Mrs.
Watts the necessity of being philo-
soPhical, and left with the observa-
ton that she had never seen a man
with mole ON his noso who did
not sooner or later prove to be
rascal.
Towards evening, Jakey was sit
ting on the steps, having recovered
from his grief of the morning,
when the Sunday school teacher
chanced to pass by, and Jakey ac-
costed him with, "Say, mister,
told my mother what you told me
about old Jacob last night, and the
old scratch has been to pay ever
since. Mo called pa villain and
a bloody thief, and tried to break
her back on the sofa, and said that
there wouldn't be anything to eat,
and there amt been such time
since pa offered to kiss Aunt Jane
goodbye. Maybe you had better
drop in and see the old lady, mis-
ter; though she amt SO bad rs she
was"
The teacher, after some pressing,
accompanied Jakey into the house,
and was presented to Mrs. Watts
in the parlor.
Mrs. Watts began to thank him
for disclosing her husbands per-
ifdy, but he disclaimed having done
anything of the kind, and at length,
after considerable talking, it was
discovered that Jakey had misap-
piled the story of the patriarch
Jacob. Mrs. Watts started right
out to hunt up jacob, and when
she found him, astonished him
again by being as loving as she had
been distant. Jakey is contented
in tho fact TINT there is no immedi-
ate prospect of lack of supplies
in the family, and Mrs. Watts would
be perfectly happy, if she could
only shut Mrs. Lewis mouth.

a Clnee. Hard Man.

'2f A C!cee, Hard Man.
A hard, close man was Solomon Ray,
Nothing OF value he gave away; =
he noarded and 5ave6,
He pinohed and shaved;
And the more he had, tho more he
craved.
The hard-earned, dollars he toilca % gain
Brought him little but care and pain;
For little he spent,
And all he lent
he made it bring him twenty per cent.
Suoh was the life Of Solomon Ray.
TIE Ssa yea-s gent by, and his hair grew
His cheeks grew thin. g'
And his soul within
Grew hard as the dollars he worked to
win.
But he died one day, as all men must,
For life is feeting, and man but dust.
The heirs were gay .t!Eh Ans
That laid him away, 80.
And that was the end of Solomon Ray.
They quarreled now, who hnd little cared
For Solomon Ray while his life was
spared. L.r4f
His lands were sold, n-
And his hard-earned gold
All went to the lawyers, I nm told.
Yet mon will cheat and pinch and save,
Nor carry their treasures beyond the
& grave. ~4 c-u -
All their gold some day
Will melt away ;

OF all the amusements that can possibly
be imagined for q working man, after
daily tolls, or in the intervals, there is
nothing like reading newspaper or q
book. 1t calls for no bodily exertion, OF
which already no has had enough, per-
baps too much. 1t relieves his home of
dizziness and sameness. Nay. ii accompa-
MES him to his work next day. and gives
him something TO think about besides tAl,
mechanical drudgery Of his everyday oc-.
cupation; something he can enjoy While
absent, and look forward to with pleasure.
If were to pray for taste which woala
stand by me under every variety Of cir
cumstances, and be source Of happiness
and cheerfulness to me through life, and
a shield against all ills, however the world
frown upon me, it would be taste for
