MISCELLANEOUS.

If we dive to the bottom of pleasure we
are sure to bring up dirt.
Never mind where you work; care more
about how you work. Never mind who
sees, if God approves.-Spurgeon.
Many persons are judged harshly by the
world because they allow no eye but God's
to see into the inner sanctuaries of their
hearts.
Character is the eternal temple that each
one begins to rear, yet death only can COM
plete. The finer the architecture, the more
fit for the indwelling of angels.

A writer on dress says: ''Short and podgy
women ought not to wear belts" What's
the use of giving advice in that way?
There isn't woman in the world who
would admit, even to herself, that she was
''short and podgy."
Jeweler-"What kind of chain would
you like?" Young man-"Well, don't

you think I ought to have?-that is. what
style do you think would be most becoming
for young man who carries groceries to
some of the best families in town?''
Here are the heads of a sermon that was
once preached by a quaint old minister on

men are where they ought not to be. Third

find themselves where they had rather not

''Did you like the sermon, love ?" asked
pious wife of a heathen husband on theil
way home from church. '.Well, my dear

MY MOTHER AT THE GATE.

70, there's many lovely picture
On memory's silent wall,
There's many cherished imase
That tenderly recall.
That sweet home Of my childhood,
With its singing brooks and birds;
The friends that grew beside me,
With their loving looks and words;
The flowers that deck the wildwood,
The roses fresh and sweet,
The bluebells and the daisies,
That blossomed at my feet;
All. all are very precious,
And often come to me,
Like the breezes from better land,
Beyond life's troubled sea.
But the sweetest, dearest picture
That memory can create,
Is the image of my mother,
My mother at the safe.
1t is there I see her standing,
With her face so pure and fair,
With the sunlight and the shadows
On her snowy cap and hair;
can feel the soft, warm pressure
or the hand that clssped my own,
can see the look of fondness
That in her blue eyes shone,
can hear her parting blessing
Through the lapse of weary years,
can see through all my sorrows
Her own sweet, silent tears.
All. amid the darkest trials
That have mingled with my fate,
have turned to that dear image
Ny mother at the gate.
But she has crossed the river,
She is with the angels now,
She has laid ssids earth's crosses.
And the crown is on her brow:
She is clothed in purest robes of white,
And walks the streets of gold;
o, mother. safe forever
Within that happy fold,
No sorrowing thoughts can reach thee,
No grief is thine today.
God gives thee joy for mourning
Thy tears are wiped away;
Thou art walking in that city
Where saints and angels wait
Nay I know thee, dearest mother.
Should reach the Hearly sate?"

LACK OF cHEAPNEss.

The yearly average increase of our prop
erty is not far from three per cent. An
average of higher rates argues merging
of the gains of productive industry into
the reservoirs of the capitalists.
No argument is required to show that if
the prevailing rates for the use of money
continue with us to rule from two to five
times those paid by our competitors across
the water in ship building and all other
productions, no system of bonuses Or tariffs
can long sustain us.
LACK OF VOLUME.
When ship builder designs first-class
steamer, he does not calculate on the mini
mum of strength, buoyancy, and engine.

We paid a visit to the new schooner
Lucia A Simpson, last evening, and
found her worthy OF the praise that has
been bestowed upon her by the people
and press OF Manitowoc, where she was
built The Dimensions Of the Lucia A.
Simpson are as follows: Length, l26
feet inches; beam n feet 6 inches !;
average depth of hold, 8 feet inches
Her model is excellent for lumber
craft, having a great deal of sheer and
perfect lines. While showing fine en-
trance and run, she possesses plenty of
floor, which ensures large carrying capac-
ity upon light draught of water It is
estimated that she will carry 200, 900
feet OF lumber upon feet inches
draught, and 240, 600 feet upon 9 feet
draught. Particular attention was paid
to strength IN her construction. Her
deck is supported by two shelf-pieces of
extra thickness, through-bolted, aud, in
addition to this the deck also has the
support of heavy knees at proper inter
walls. The cabin being placed on deck,
leaves an unobstructed hold aft Of the
forecastle bulkhead for slowing lumber.
The cabin itself is commodious, and g
model Of neatness. Taken altogether,
the Lucia A. Simpson is the best vessel
we have yetseen, thai has been constructed
especially for the lumber trade-and the
credit for the success belongs to her
builders, Messrs. Rand & Berger, of
Manitowoc, than whom there are no
better anywhere Wisconsin,.
