and DO her cooking by the old Fireplace and
brick oven And nearly every household
labor has received nearly as much improve
mept as the cooking stove or range Is over
the old brick oven and fireplace of our fore
fathers. All Of these improvements have
cost years Of study and thousands of dollars
to perfect yetall this improvement is IN part
the fruit Of those that have, after years OF
patient toll and study, only to find that on
putting their pet theory 10 the practical test
10 prove an ignobe failure. Daring all this
advancement of improvements, there are
many articles that have not received touch
from the hand of improvement. Among
these articles we find that Of the table. But
l hear gentle reader exclaim, our cabinet-
makers furnish most elegant aud elaboiate
centre, side aud extension tables. Most IA
suredly but refer more particularly TO the
ladies' work table, which has received but
little attention from inventors till of late.
Mr. ii. Il. Ober, OF North Springfield, VT,
the other day invited my inspection to an
Improvement aud patent Of his that readily
met my approval. The article is designed
more particularly for a ladies' work table,
but the uses it can be put to are innumera-
BILE. 1t is designed TO take the place of that
article known to dressmakers and others as
the lap board, aud at once doing away with
that announcement article; for every lady
who has ever used one knows it is always
slipping from the lap either to the right or
10 the left, dumping the work in confused
mass upon the carpet The lady who does
her cutting and bastiog upon common Ia
bic we'll remembers the back aches that she
has endured, seeking relief by taking her
work upon the carpet, but with no better
success. Next she lays her work upon the
bed. Here, again, Inconvenience stands al
her side, dealing painful blows at side, back
and arms. But Mr. 0ber's patent relieves
alt of this, his table being slightly largel
than the common lay board, standing som,
80 or "a inches high-just high enough al
you sit in u common chair TO draw it int
your lap, yet standing drmly and so ar
ranged with iron brackets that the legs folt
in together at the under side of the table
and can TO set away when not in use, occu
plying u space scarcely thicker than man
hand Although weighing but few pounds
yet when set ready for use it stands firm, an
is not liable 10 get out of order. We hav,
no Ak to grind on this table, but believe it
one Of the best things for a ladies' SEWN
room, and that 1t should be the companion
piece of every sewing machine; aud onl
seen once will convince the most incredulous
and only used once for short time and
would not be parted with for five times il
cost.
While there is double the amount of mi
terial, and four times the labor, consumed
the manufacture of one of these tables, the
are sold at price but little above that
; the common lap board that can be found
any furniture store. &. w. NJ.

WILD ROSE OF CAPE COD.
BY SARAH :. pRICmARD.

Nearly all the roses in Massachusetts are
born in June, but Wild, the little daughter
of Capt John Rose. was born in December,
and on Cape Cod, too.
All. what struggle il is to live on Cape
Cod in December! You have only a narrow
strip of sand to cling TO, and the Atlantic
(even when ii is not in II great rage) clutches
away with one single wave of its watery
hand an acre or two of sand while the cold
waters of Cape Cod bay sweep right in on
the other side, within sight, too; the arm of
sand is so thin and worn and wasted away.
Well, on Cape Cod, us | said, Wild Rose
was born but that was IL years ago, and so,
this last December was celebrated her 18th
birthday. 1t wasn't much of II celebration,
to be sure, for there was not many persons
10 celebrate it-only Mrs Rose and Johnny
and Wild herself for Capt Rose was gone on
fishing trip.
At tea, that night, there was on the table a
big loaf of ginger too--and
tallow candles. Twelve dips" Johnny
said, "that made rs much light us the High
land itself" And Johnny ought to know,
for the keeper of Cape Cod light is a great
friend of JOhnny's, and often in summer lets
the lad go up with him to see him Eight
up"
This Highland light stands out on the bleak
cape, and is Onentimes the first light that
greets the sight of seamen when approaching
the coast of New England from over the At
lantic coast.
johnny Rose was two years Younger than
his only sister Wild, but II ten years old lad
on Cape Cod knows more of the sea and
ships and fishing than the wisest grown-up
in the world who lives inland.
The Little Katie was Capt Roses fishing
schooner and tho Little Katie was frozen fast
in the ice more than six weeks ago, right in
sight from the land up the banks above the
cabin. Two weeks passed by, and still the
ice held the fishing boats and would not let
them go. Stout little steam-tugs went rasp-
ing away with firm bows and good intent at
the ice day after day in order to break it up
and tow the boats out Of danger, but the
cold came down stronger than ever and knit
the Ice cakes irmer and firmer. Every day
johnny bundled up until he looked like |
don't know what, made the toisome journey
the Highland to look through the 'glass"
Mt his fathers schooner, and every night for
two weeks with - face on fire from the irio-
tion Of the wind, he came back with the
good news, "No signal up yet !"
No signal up yet meant that there was
still something left to cat and wood to burn
on the Little Katie, aud hope also of getting
free from the ice without sinking.
Now and then neighbor came down
into the hollow and walked right in
without knocking Mt the cabin door, to in,
quirc how Mrs Rose was getting on, and TO
say, yet again "Cape Cod has seen harder
times than this, Mrs Rose. Keep up a stout
heart, and Wen have the feet safe into

Only a bright hope cherished
Thro' years, with sorrow rife
But tho sunshine born Of patience
Shone DER spirits life
And cheerfully onward toward lis goal,
On the voyage Of life sped human soul.
only a bright sky darkened
by the swiftly gath'ring Storm
Only a sweet hope persisted,
From heat that was light and warm.
But the sunshine aed from that heart away,
Like the fading out Of n summer day.
And bud of fair beauty is blighted,
A halfanished life-work Is done.
Twas the sunshine required for the blossom
Whose glory forever Is gone;
But the bud shall bloom In land more fair,
When the wrecks Of liio are gathered there.
There many an earthly promise.
Wrecked by the winter blast,
In radiance Of beauty
Shall bloom when earth is past
And only an erriug wanderers voice
May shake the heavens when the saints rejoice.

ITO the Editor Of the Ledger:
Though not used TO writing for news
Papers, / take the liberty Of giving few
tof my thoughts on matters. Everybody
NEARLY is talking about the Peoples Pro.
~teetiye Unien and their new ideas of re-
Horn. / am a mechanic, and can say il
sthey will make times easier | for n will
leo for reform, Think we have toe many
5ofic e-holders, and they get entirely too
ahigh pay. A mechanic works hard from
Sunrise to sunset, and is glad TO get three
2dollars q day.
Z I have heard it said everywhere that
SMr. Pat Wintersgets seven dollars a day
efor doing one hours work, and some say
sthe Clerk of the Chancery Court gets
ethisty to forty dollars a day and has
q pienty OF time to walk about toYn, talk
fiug politics or electioneering.
a Now, we mechanics who work in brick
xaud mortar, and have hardly time TO eat
Sdon't see any good in this kind of'thing
Fand we would like to have a change some
Ey6y.
n No one is surprised to see ofice-hold
seFs who get thirty to forty or seventy dol
alars a day running to Nashville to work
1against reform; but people do wonder
sand ask why newspapers, which ought Il
sbe workiugmen's friends, should 90 SC
Shot for the Office holders side.
