PEOPLE WILL TALK.

You may get through the world but twill be
very slow,
If you listen to all that is said as you go;
You'll be worried and fretted and kept in a
stew -..aH.
For meddlesome tongues must have something
to do,
For people will talk.
If quiet and modest, you'll have it presumed
That your humble position is only assumed;
You're wolf in sleeps clothing, or else you're
fool,
But don't get excited, keep perfectly cool,
For people will talk.
If generous and noble, they'll vent out their
You'll hear some loud hints that you're selfish
and mean.
If upright, and honest, and fair as the day,
They'll call you arogue in sly, sneaking way,
For people will talk.
And then if you show the least boldness of
heart
Or slight inclination to take your own part,
They'll call you an upstart, cOnceited and vain,
But keep straight ahead, don't stop to COM
plain,
For people will talk.
If threadbare your coat, or rold-fashioned your
hat,
Some one, of course, will take notice of that;
And hint rather strongly you can't pay your
way,
But don't get excited, whatever they say,
For people will talk. .
II you dress in the fashion, don't think to es-
cape,
They Il crlticise then in different shape;
You're ahead of your means; or you're tailors
unpaid,
But mind your own business; there's naught
to be made,
For people will talk.

Rpublica nPlatfOrnl.

The following platform was unanimously
adopted, without discussion:
The Republicans of Ohio, in Convention as
sembled, re-affiming the cardinal principles Of
their organization, which have become re-
reived maxims of policy, State and national,
declare on specific points the series of senti.
ments following:
First-The States are one as a nation, and
all citizens are equal under the laws, and en-
titled to their fullest protection.
Second-That the policy of finance should
be steadily pursued which, without unnecessa-
ry shock to business or trade, will ultimately
equalize the purchasing capacity of the coin
and paper dollar.
Third-We are in favor of tariff for reve-
nue., with incidental protection to American
industry.
Fourth-We stand by free education, our
public school system, the taxation of all for
its support, and no division of the school
fund
Fifth-Under our republican system of
government there should be no connection,
direct or indirect, between Church and State,
and we oppose all legislation in the interest of
any particular sect. Upon this subject we
should not fail to profit by the experience of
foreign governments, where the efforts of the
Church to control the State constitute an evil
and prosperity of the people.
Sixth-We demand such a revision of the
patent laws as will relieve industry from the
oppression of monopolies in administration.
Seventh-A grateful people can never cease
to remember the services Of our soldiers and
sailors, and it is due to them that iberality
and generosity should obtain in the adjustment
of pay and bounties.
Eighth-That we demand that the public
domain shall be scrupulously reserved for oc-
cupancy by actual settlers.
Ninth-The determination of the govern
ment to collect the revenue, and prevent and
punish frauds, has our unqualified approval.
Tenth-That the power of municipal corpo-
rations to create debts should be restricted,
and local and other expenditures should be so
reduced rs to diminish taxation.
Eleventh-The observance of Washington's
example, in retiring at the close of second
Presidential term, will be in the future, as it
has been in the past, regarded as a fundamen
tai rule in the unwritten law Of the republic.
Twelfth-The distinguished success of his
which, to the fame of the pa
triot and soldier has added that of the capa
bic and judicious statesman, entities President
Grant to the gratitude Of his countrymen.

POETRY.
THERE COMES A TIME.

There comes time when We grow OLD,
And like a sunset down the sea
Slope gradual, and night-wind cold
Comes whispering sad and chilling;
And locks are gray
As winters day,
And eyes of saddest blue behold
The leaves all weary drift away,
The lips of faded coral say,
There comes time when we grow old.
There comes a time when joyous hearts
Which leaped as high as the laughing main,
Are dead to all save memory,
As prisoner in his dungeon chain;
And dawn of day
Hath passed away,
The moon hath into darkness rolled,
And by the embers warm and gray,
I hear a voice in whispers say,
There comes a time when we grow old.
There comes time when manhood's prime
Is shrouded in the mist of years,
And beauty, fading like dream,
Hath passed away in silent tears;
And then how dark!
But oh, the spark
That kindled youth to hues of gold,
Still burns with clear and steady ray,
And fond affections lingering, say,
There comes time when We grow gray.
There comes time when laughing Spring
And golden Summer cease to be,
And we put on the Autumn robe,
To tread the last declivity;
But now the slope,
With rosy Hope,
Beyond the sunset we behold
Another dawn with fairer light,
While watchers whisper through the night
There comes time when we grow old.

That Hired Girl.

When she came to work for the FAM
lily on Congress street, the lady of the
house sat down and told her that
agents, book pedders, hat-rack men,
picture sellers, ash buyers, ragmen, and
all that class of people, must be met at
the front door and coldly repulsed, and
Sarah said she'd repulse 'em if she
had to break every broomstick in De
troit.
And she did. She threw the door
open wide, bluffed right up at 'em, and
when she got through talking the
checklist agent was only too glad to
leave. It got so after awhile that ped
dlers marked that house, and the door
bell never rang except for company.
The other day, as the lady OF the
house was enjoying nap and Sarah
was wiping off the spoons, the bell
rang. She fastened to the door, ex-
pectipg to see lady, but her eyes en-
countered Slim MAN dressed in black
and wearing white ntck-tie. He was
the new minister, and he was going
around TO get acquainted with the
members of his flock, but Sarah wasn't
expected to know this.

the gate.

No, L won't; we are bored to death

No; nor don't know it now. You

Il don't care for cards, tell you! If
you leave that gate open PH heave a
hower-pot at you!'
Il will call again. he said, as he
went through the gate.
1T won't do any goodp she shouted
after him; we don't want no prepared
food for infants-no piano music-no
stuffed birds! 1 know the policeman
on this beat, and if you come around
here again he'll soon find out whether
you're confidence man or vagrant!
And she took unusual care to lock
the door.-Detroit Free Press. .-
