MRS. MORRIssEY is a fine looking lady.
who, like her husband, is perfectly indie
pendent of Mrs Grundy, and knows
well how to take care of herself. For
merly she lived at Troy, where she was
highly respected by all classes of citizens.
One afternoon it ehaDced that the eyes
of a young sprig of fustian happened to
fall upon a tall, handsome, elegantly at
tired lady, who was walking up the
street in front of him. He passed and
repassed her, trying to attract her at
tention, but in vain. Finally he ad-
dressed her, when suddenly an arm of
steel emerged from a seal muff and
blow that seemingly might have felIed
an OK, laid the young fellow sprawIing
against stoop. Quickly he recovered
himself, gathered up his beaver and
cane, and retreated rapidly down the
street. The lady stood for momsnt
laughing at his discontinue, and then
turned upon her heel, the admiration of
all b.hoIders. Her would be adorsr in
auired of some one who stood at a safe
distance who the lady was. A smile
came with the answer, MRS. John Nor

of money.
1t don't pay to have these fifty men

order that the saloon keeper may -four
ish on roast turkey and champagne.
1t don't pay to have the mothers and
children of twenty families dressed in

1t don't pay to have one citizen in the

ENDORSE YOUR OWN BUSINESS.

An exchange in speaking of the i'm
portance of every business man making
an authoritative statement of the nature
of his own business to the public, makes
the following excellent suggestions:
Some men are willing enough to pay
70, printing ink, but they imagine that
palpable straight out advertisingis is not
exactly the thing. They want to get it
done in the third person, or to have the
endorsement of the editorial 1--WE"
That business man who soonest educates
himself out of this delusiOn will have
the most greenbacks. A business mans
advertisement in his own language, over
his own signature, and for which he is
plainly responsible, is in the nature of
an official document. There is an air
about the responsible advertisement
which says: 81 want to trade and will
give yOu "A fair bargain" When we
have occasion to advertise our own bus
mess We rarely make editorial mention
of it, but insert an advertisement. This
view of the subject is not inconsistent
with the common practice of making
editorial mention of new advertisements
and tine largest papers cannot ever do
that-nOr of local mention of matters
that are constantly occurring in the
business community, by which any
mans business may be called into no
tice One is news item and the other
is an introduction as it were of new
customer to the reading or business
public
To obtain the full value OF printers
ink, advertise. Do it in your own Ian
guage, or if you cannot do that to suit
you, get some one better versed in the
matter to help you, or come to the Office
with your ideas written down and we
will help put them in shape. BY all
means advertise. Change Oftep, and
when your business admits of it, make
different features of it prominent in
THEN t,.rn; to- day one thing, TO morrow
or next week another, and then some
thing else. Let your advertisements
have something Of the dash in them,
without great exaggeration. Hundreds
of fortunes have been made by adver-
tisiDg, and yet as an art it is but imper-
fectly understood.

crazed or dreamiEg2 There in the same
place was the same man, digging as be-
fore.
She entered the house, half fainting.
and briefly told the story to her sons,
VII" We're now stalwart young men.
They went into the garden, and there,
sure enough, was the man. In two min
utes they had their guns ready, and one
of them passed round the edge to the
gate below where the man was, while
the other took up position near low
stone wall which cut off part of the field
from an open lot. Both showed them
selves at one time, and called out to the
man. He started up and prepared to
fly. In a moment the young men closed
in on him, covering him with their
weapons. When he saw lie was hope
lessly entrapped, he dropped to the
ground, and allowed himself to be cap
tured. As they led him through the
street Mrs. Rand confronted him. He
was the double OF the Iuan who had WIS.,
tied her the morning after the Squire's
murder, and bore Il striking resemblance
to the late Squire, who had been hanged
as his brothers assassin, even to the
Wen which had made Mrs. Rand's ident-
iiication fatal. The authorities were
sorely perplexed, but the man admitted
that he was the murderer of Squire
Greene, and that he had come back in
the hope of finding the money he had
buried there the morning after the per-
petration of his crime. He gave his
name as John Sedley. He saved the
county the trouble Of hanging him by
jumping from the top of the stage coach
while crossing the bridge into Durham,
and fracturing his skull against an abut-
ment.

we have received THE Peoples Com
mon, Sense Medical Adviser, in plain En-
glish; or. Medicine Siinpliiied," by R.Y.
Pierce, NJ. d., Counsellor in-C Chief of the
Board of Physicians and Surgeons at the
Worli's Dispensary. Whoever helps
humanity with its struggle with its in
ID, rent weaknesses and Diseases to bear
or cHTe, is its benelactor Ignorance is
not only of itself a cause OF disease and
mortality, but it is the enemy of every
effort TO cure or mitigate. Nothing will
so speedily remove this cause as knOwl
edge tan elementary one at least of the
diseases TO which We are heir, as well as
those superinduced by our own impru-
dence. DIR. Pierce has rendered, in our
Judgment, a benefactOr's service, both
TO the afflicted and to the profession, in
his diagnosis Of the diseases treated of,
and in the presentation of the philOsOph
ic principles involved in their cause and
removal. He is sparing of remedies, and
usually prescribes such as are safe in un.
skilled hands As n book merely of abb
stract knowledge, il is exceedingly read
able and interesting, especially the fol-
lowing subjects: Cerebral Physiology,
HumanTemperaments, Pseudo Hygiene,
the Nursing of the Sick, Sleep, Food,
Ventilation, etc. In one chapter on an
other subject, so delicate in its nature
that it is shut up beyond tine domain of
warning to all but physicians, so accursed
in its-results in modern society. he is
most explicit, and alike true to God, to
virtue, to life, to society, shows the truth
as presented ia the teachings of Scrip
ture-tha. life begins with conception
with great force, to which is added faith
ful warnings.

great strife raging. 1t is an Austerlitz of
ribbons. The carnage of color is seen
all over our assemblages. Along on the
| outskirts of the Sabbath audience you
see, here and there, picket of fashion.
| But down in the middle of the church
are the solid columns, blazing away all
through the services Five hundred
'broken and contrite hearts" covered
up in rainbows and spangles. Follow
ers of the ''meek and Iowly Nazarene"
all a-jingle and a-flash. Ten cents for
the missionary cause, and two hundred
and fifty dollars for trappings Church
of God hung by the neck with gold
chains, diamond-locketed. Unsophisti-
Gated person travelling on two yards of
silk, dragged by the lady going up the
aisle ip front of him. Diamonds enough
to give all India the gospel. The item
of dress among Christian people on the
Sabbath day is an outrage on the Chris
tian religion.
For graceful and beautiful apparel we
have admiration. But this strife in
Christian circles as to who shall excel
in costly millinery, and who shall dash
up to the church door in the gayest turn
out, and who shall make the most
blazonment of wardrobe, is one of the
great hindrances to religious advance
ment Our ladies' hats and shawls are
SO fine that on rainy days we are afraid
to go to church, lest we get a drop on
them. Our head-gear is worth more
than our souls. We teeter and swagger
up the aisles, to the disgust of good men
and the grief of angels Enough money
is expended by the Christians of our city,
in excess of the requisite out lay for
dress, to relieve all the poverty, and ed
ucate all the ignorance, and balk all the
crime. Much of the piety of our church.
es is being smothered under shirred
basques and jabot ruffles and Louisines.
Some of our Christian gentlemen have
boots so tight they can hardly walk in
paths cf righteousness, and they feel in
church more like swearing than praying,
because their corns hurt; and our Chris
tian women shut out the sun or right
eOusness by twenty-dollar parasols, lace
trimmed, silk lined, ,silver-mounted. The
poor are kept out Of church because
their plain apparel looks SO bad in the
contrast.
We want great ecclesiastical refor-
nation in this matter of Sabbath ac-
coutrement. Shoe these religious pea
cocks out of the house God. ByyOur
example make subdued and modest cos
tune more popular than gaudy apparel.
DO not put so much dry goods on your
back that you cannot climb into glory.
You cannot sail into heaven with such
rigging as that. They would level their
guns at you as being a blockade runner.
Coming up to the celestial door, the
gate-keeper would cry, ''Halti you can
not go in with such regimentals. And
as you answered, 81 got these jewels
from Tiffany, and that dress from
Arnold and Constable, and those shoes
from Burt" the gate-keeper would say
to one of the attendants, 'rake this
soul down to one of the out-houses. and
tear off those puffs and ruffies and knife
plaitings and Hamburg embroideries,
and put ON her more appropriate Sun
day attire; for going in as she now is, all
heaven would burst out n laughingn'-

IT is indeed wondrous thought, and
one that must forever disassociate hum
ble labor from dishonor and disgrace,
that in union with the infinite, incom-
pr-hensible nature of Him who planned
the worlds, who of old from everlasting,
set rule and compass on the face of the
deep, meeting out the heavens with the
span of His hand, and without whom
was not anything made that was made
might be seen the lowly Son of the
Iowly Mary, busted at His reputed faith

husbandry-the drops of labor falling
from His forehead.-J. X. Macduf.

How LITTLE ALICE DIED.-Not long
ago the Rev. Mr. Winsor, of Red Wing,
Minnesota, met with a painful loss in the
burning of his daughter Alice. Her
breast. abdomen, legs, arms and hands
We're shockingly burned, and after few
hours she died. She was only about five
years old, and, as she fingered between
Heaven and earth a little while, she
asked her mother to lie on the bed with
her, and, when this request was granted,
she said: ''Sing to me 4 am Jesus little
lamb" As her stricken mother tried to
press back the torrent of grief that
sweled up in her heart and sang the
words, the dear little sufferer made an
effort with her failing strength TO put
one of her crisped arms around her neck
Afterwards, as death drew near, she re-
quested her father to sing ''Rock of
Ages, cleft for me, " and seemed to be
soothed by those grand old words.-St
Paul Pioneer.
