Resumption by Deprecia ton.

The idea OF the rigid money shaver is that
there is no way TO put paper at par with
gold save by depreciation of values. I, must
be confessed that in many respects things are
too high when valued in gold at fifteen per
cent. premium, and paid for in paper money
at fifteen per cent. discount; bu. il is equally
true that If you make paper and gold eq4ol,
the values Of things would be the same In
paper that they would be in gold.
The rigid shaver eosld see no way to make
paper at par with gold bu. by reducing the
quantity of paper. Ii there were another
way. would 1t rot he wise to resort to 1T

With few rapid strokes she liberated her
husband and then bent down and uncover
ed the child To her unspeakable joy, she
found it in a slumber as sweet and peaceful
as though it had been hushcd TO rest upoa
Its mothers bosom. With prayer of graft
tude upon her lips she lifted il from its rude
resting place, turned to her companion, and
motioned the way to their home. With rap
id and noiseless steps they hurried away,
speeding onward with tremulous yet hope
ful hearts, Not moment did the fond moth
er spare TO carers her infant--not word did
she utter to greet her husband. The spell Of
n new-ioUnd, uncertain happiness he'd set
tied upon her spirit, and she feared to break
its thrilling charm.
For p time they travelled thus in silence
and darkness, moving az rear ss they could
judge, in the direction cf their home, and
anxious to be farther stiil farther, Guay
from their enemies. At length, 1eariness
compelled them to rest awhile, and rs the
davning day began to sized trembling
light abroad, they cTcpt into thicket erd
sought repose. The beams of the rising sun
lightened tho wanderers on their homevard
journey, and when that sun was sinking to
fepose, its parting rays fell cslml7 over the
wccdmans humble home, revealing o scene
of blis7 such "a seldom visits the abode of

bearing Up to heaven that deep devotion of
thankful, happy hearts!

Ti.e Bliss of Marriage.

We whirl along the down hill path of
life with the veiocity of locomotive, but we

road.
What the negro preacher said of Satan
may be said Of love
"Wkece he finds weaker place dere he
creeps in
There is warm corner even in the coolest
heart: and somebody, if that somebody csn
only he found, was made expressly to Ell it.
Thousands OF both sexes live cnd die un-
married simply for want Of Z proper intro
duction to one another. What an absurd.

There is not woman or man of any age
who might not find n suitable partner by
using the proper means.

oak. The bride is dressed in black and wears

walks in the miast OF her friends. A matrou,
Who walks on her left, holds before her eyes
= white cloth it is shroud, the shroud in
which she Will be buried one of these DAYS.
On her right - Druid intones a chant in
which he cuumeratea in solemn rythm all
the troubles and al the anxieties which
await her in welded life.
From this day, young wife, thou alone will
have to bear all the burden OF your united
| household.
You will have to attend the baking oven,
| to provide fuel, and To 20 in search OF food ;
you will have to prepare the resinous torch
and the lamp,
You wash the linen at the fountain, and
you will make up the clothing,
You will attend to the COW, and even to
the horse if your husband requires it.
Always full Of respect, you will wait on
him, standing behind him ct hi7 meals.
If he expresses Uish to trke you wiz,
