visit at Bro. j. &. Norcross', Brad
ford, Feb. 25th, in the afternoon
and evening. On account of the
rain and bad going, there was but

evening forty were present with
their freewill offerings. The time
passed pleasantly and we hope for
the mutual benefit of all. They left
for our benefit $11 in cash, a dress
pattern for Mrs. Crane, worth $12,
and other articles equally acceptable.
Also, March Sth about twenty five

A SINGULAR ExPER1ENcE.-We find the
following in the Dover IN. H. Enquirer
Some Ell ght years ago lad of thirteen, son
of Charles E. Meyers, well.known citizen of
Portsmouth, while fishing from one of the
wharves of that city caught a fish hook in the
fore finger of the right hand, near the roots OF
the nail, drawing it into the bend of the hook.
His father saw at once that the only thing to
be done was to open the finger on line with
the hook and take it out, but preferred to call
in their family physician to do it. After
looking at it for q moment the doctor, by a
sudden twist, wrenched the hook from the
finger, minus the barb and point The pa
rents were justly indignant at such rough
treatment, and insisted that the hook was not
all removed, while the boy came near faintlng
from extreme anguish. The doctor, however,
insisted that no Inconvenience would result,
and dressed the finger in some simple and safe
manner and in due time the wound healed.
But the finger and arm troubled him tor
long time After year or two the LADS
health had 30 far failed as to become subject
of serious alarm to his friends, he being sub
iect to frequent and alarming fainting tits,
and other spasmodic affections or symptoms.
This state Of affairs continued for years, with
more intensity until year or two ago, when
the bows health became nearly or quite re-
stored. In the spring of 1874 the young
man, while dressing himself one morning, tore
q pimple from his left shoulder, and, on ex-
aiming it, he drew from the flesh the point OF
the hook which seven years before was lmbed-
ed in a finger on the opposite side OF MS
BODY.

With the outer wrapping, in which it had been
carefully enveloped, partially burnt off, Mr..
Maxwell, an acute man of business, had per-
ceived, at once, the important nature of the
paper, and, without saying word on the sub
ject, quietly retained it in his own possession
until he could, himself, place it in his friends
, hands.
Estelle stands before him, white to the lips,
but with defiant CLEAN in her eyes, and a
hard, compressed look about the set mouth,
that betokens no softened feeling or remorse.
The decree has gone forth that she shall leave
"The Cedars," at least for time, until she
has manifested penitence for her sin, and
proved herself worthy to be again received
under the roof of the guardians whose kind
ness and loving care she has so basely repaid.
But she will never return, for there is fixed
purpose in her heart to revisit no more the
scene of her disgrace; and after listening, in
absolute silence, to the parting words of coun.
sci, of forgiveness, which her adopted father
even now, cannot withhold, she passes, with
erect head and unfaltering step, out of the
room, and out of these pages, forever.
The second scene is some months later, in
the twilight of a soft summer evening, be-
meath the ancient trees in the broad shrubbery
at The Cedars. Here stroll a youthful pair,
Edmund and Carrie Her hand rests lightly
upon his arm, lovely color glows in her
cheek, and her lips are parted by smile as
she listens to the words he is murmuring in
her willing ear. 1t needs no penetrating eye
to discover that they are lovers-not in name
only but in very truth; and though her father
says two more years must pass before he can
give his darling up, they are content to wait,
in the knowledge that the love they bear each
other can never grow less, but will rather
strengthen and ripen with each succeeding
month as the golden years pass on.
Restored to her own home, surrounded by
all the happiness that love can shed upon her
path, and yet not parted from her true old
friend-for uncle Dan, tired of his rowing life,
is established in cottage near by-Carrie
thinks she has nothing upon earth to wish for !;
and so she is saying to Edmund, as they walk
in the sunset through the fowery paths.
"And to-day, of all days, I am so happy,
because ofmy letter from Susy-dear susy,
who used to be such good friend. How de-
lightful to think that she and Leon are going
to be married at last! She was always fond
of Leon, though 1 was silly enough not to
know it, How nice it is for everybody else to
get what they want, as well as myself! But
I never dreamed, Edmund, when you flung
me that white camelia, and felt so glad as 1
put it in my hair, that Nita, the Circus Girl,
would one day be your promised wife!'
THE END.

How POSTAGE STAMPS ARE MADE.-ln
printing, steel plates are used, on which two
hundred stamps are engraved. Two men are
kept hard at work covering them with tne
colored inks and passing them to man and
girl, who are equally busy at printing them
with large rolling hand presses. Three OF
these little squads are employed all the time,
although ten presses can be put into use IN
case of necessity. After the small sheets Of
paper upon which the two hundred stamps
are engraved have dried enough, they are sent
into another room and gummed. The gum
used for this purpose is peculiar composition,
made of the powder of dried potatoes and
other vegetables mixed with water, which is
better than any other material, for instance,
gum arabic, which cracks the paper badly.
This paper is also of peculiar texture, some
what similar to that used for bank notes. A.
ter having been again dried, this time on 1T
tie racks, which are famed by steam power
for about an hour, they are put in between
sheets of pasteboard and pressed in hydraulic
presses, capable of applying weight OF two
thousands tons. The next thing is to cut the
sheets in half; each sheet of course, when cut,
contains hundred stamps. This is done by
a girl with large pair of shears, cutting by
hand being preferred to that of machinery
which method would destroy too many stamps.
They are then passed to two other squads,
who, in as many operations, pertorate the
sheets between the stamps. Next they, are
pressed once more, and then packed and Ia
beled, and slowed away in another room, pre-
paratory to being put in mail bags 1or as
patching to fulfil orders: If single stamp Is
torn, or in any way mutilated, the whole sheet
of one hundred is burned. About five hun
dred thousand are burned every week from
this cause For the past twenty years not a
single sheet has been lost, such care has been
taken in counting them. During the progress
of manufacturing, the sheets are counted
eleven times.

DR.. BETHuNE TRoUT.F F1sH1NG.-On one
occasion, when the Doctor was resident IN
Philadelphia, he went for few days OF rest
to trout-stream he had heard of in the inte'
rior ofthe State, to indulge in his favorite
pastime. Arriving, an entire stranger, at a
house kept by man who had been accustom-
ed to entertain those who came there to tish,
he was coldly received. The man told him
frankly that he had attended a protracted
meeting during the winter, that he hoped the
Lord had forgiven his sins, and that he had
Joined the Methodist church, and meant to
give up going with the kind of men who came
up there to fish.
The Doctors humor overcame his scruples
so far as to gain admittance for the night, and
the next morning, succeeded still farther, pre-
vailing on the man to 90 out with him and show
him the best places of the stream. They spent
most of the day together, and on returning to
the house in the afternoon, the man slapped
him on the shoulder, saying, "Doc:: L like
you" "Why do you like me, my friend r
"Well, Doc, I'll tell you. We've been out
almost all day, we haven't caught much, you
fell in and got wet, and haven't heard you
swear once"
After supper, as the Doctor was smoking
his pipe in front of the house, his host came
out and with some heisitancy said, doctor,
since jined the church I've had prayers ev-
cry night; we are going to have them now,
and maybe you wouldn't object to come in."
"Certainly not, my friend" and he went in to
listen to the reading of a passage in broken
way, and tojoin heartily in the good old Meth
odist hymn. During the singing the man
watched him closely, and at the end said anx-
iously, "Maybe you wouldn't mind leading us
in prayer?"
The Doctor knelt and offered one Of those
full and hearty, yet simple supplicatlonns,
which are 80 we'll remembered by all who
knew him. He was hardly seated in front OF
the house again, before the man reappeared,
saying: doctor, I kinder suspicion you. -
"What do you suspect me Of? Nothing bad,
I hopew "No, nothing bad maybe I'm
wrong, but kind O. think you're minister" !"
"What makes you think I'm minister p
"Well, I'll tell you; haven't heard you
swear since you came; then the way you jined
us in that hymn then the way you prayed,
made me think you were minister" The
Doctor laughed heartily as he acknowledged
he was indeed minister.

WHY SHE LEFT HIM.-John Aborns ad-
vertises in the San Jose Patriot that his wife,
Mary E. Aborns, has left his bed and board
without just cause, and gives notice that ne
will not pay any bills contracted by her. Mrs.
Aborns replies in the Mercury in novel way.
She says she has lived with John Aborns for
ten years-the prime of her life; has borne
him six children, with all the pains, anxieties,
cares and troubles incident thereto; has
brought them up, made all their clothing and
her own, besides making clothing and doing
sewing for others for money, which went into
what lis called in law common property to
take off the sharp edge of injustice )" has
cooked about 10000 meals, set the table as
many times and cleared it off and washed the
dishes; has spent between 10000 and $4,000
hours, summer and winter, over hot cooking
stove; has cleaned up and swept his house
over 10000 times has milked, on an average,
three COWS, twice day, or about 1000 milk:
ings, besides taking care Of the milk and
making butter from it; has attended to the
poultry, and has often assisted in loading hay,
sewing sacks, and even cleaned out the stables.
She adds: "Now, l have drawn the picture
very mildly. Ihave made allowance for my

after the manner that farmer would hire a
horse if his own was sick and unable to work.

of any feeling of revenge for Mr.. Aborns. for

NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS., and, like hundreds, yes,
like thousands of others, honest with every

And then she propounds thequestion: "What

ing me p 1t is conundrum.

The TRUE EcoNoMY.-The question is not
how cheaply we can manage to keep soul and
body together, but how can we bring both
bod y and soul to the highest condition OF VI
taity and power? To live is something more
than to exist. How can we live most and
best9 How can we feed intellect and afec.
ton, conscience, sympathy, imagination, rev
erence, as we'll as the physical system =? All
pincbing and restricting of diet is injurious IN
the long run. The bean-man, the bean-bread-
man, the acknowledgement, the man who
goes housing about the world intent on cheap
ness, never makes the scales of power kick
the beam. He wastes more than he saves.
He checks an income, instead Of stopping an
outgo. The men who make the most ado over
the petty prudencies of life and perpetually
intrude their parsimonious practice on public
notice, never amount to anything, or do any
thing of account. Man wants all he can use,
assimilate, organize, reproduce. The things
that strengthen and beautify his essential man
hood, that enrich his sentiments and refine
his sensbilities, that ennoble his intellect, and
enlarge the scope of his being, and the hori'
zon Of his possibilities, belong to him by right,
as the crown and purple belong to royalty.
Every man ought to aspire and labor to
live generously, and have comfortable and
tasteful home, and surround himself and fam.
lily with everything that tends to increase s;.
happiness and create an atmosphere OF intelll-
gence and refinement. Beauty, elegance, art,
society, music, are our birthright. 1t is not
waste to spend what one has for things that
foster a noble pride, heighten selfrespect
beautify the body and cultivate the mind. 1t
is true economy that spends something fol
books and pictures, for occasional glimpses OF
nature and the entertainment OF the stage
The charities and humanities are not luxuries
that the poorest man on earth should deny
himself Of them. The loving, trustful, adorn
ing sympathy that forgets his own wants ant
meager resources and breaks the costlies
thing it has on the head of the one beloved, il
not a recklessness to be censured, but devo
ton to be commended for its divine nobility
Saving may be ant-like and beaver-like, bu
sacrifice is God-like.

ANDY WOULDN'T PARDON H1M.-While
he was President, pardon case was brought
to him by an East Tennessee lawyer, his
neighbor and friend. The case was one Of
unusual hardship, involving the remission Of
a wrongful fine. The lawyer had got it
through the Department of Justice, and car
ried it direct to the President in order to Sc
cure his client against imposition and extor;
ton, as the document should be returned
through its circumlocutious official channels.
