The Way IT RAINS IN FLoRDA.-A
Florida correspondent says: It is
hard for a Northern farmer, who
watches the horizon with aching
eyes, to understand the clock-ike
regularity of this rainy season
Sonth. Occasionally, as this year it
is delayed; but once set in goes on
regularly. There is a misty or clear
morning, the air transfused with
blushing rainbowy efulgence that
melts away in the ardent kisses of
the sun into an intense dazzle of sun
light up to two o'clock. Then the
skirmishers of the rain rush in on
cool, dewy winds, and by sharp three
o'clock the whole line is platoon
fringin great, heavy fusilades. Such
rains! Gorgeous, glorious, rushing,
a magnificent enthusiasm of plung-
ing moisture. Then the long roll
Of the thunder drums the crack
ing artillery, with it's splendor of
electric flash, tolled off in low 70 Ills;
and, before you are aware, the mo-
bile army has gathered up its splen-
did wings, it's fire and after guard
and reserves, and only in the west
you see it's grand victorious battle
flags ribbing the sky with broad
bands of color. Mix in a few rain
bows some foggy morning when the
whole air is prismy, and the clear
still lake looks like an undersky, and
you have some idea of Florida in
the rainy season. Regular as the
clock that marshalling and grand
battle panorama goes on at set two
o'clock, to be closed positiVely-no
change on account of the weather
by five o'clock Pm.

VULGAR1TY.-We have a friend
that never spoke ''Yu!gar word. "
He isa minister and a writer of
ability. II resolved when [ was
a child" said he, 'never to use a
word which l could not pronounce
before my mother without offend
ing her." He kept his promise.
He is a pure-minded, noble, honor
ed man to-day. His rule and exam
pie are worthy of imitation.
Boys readily learn class of low
vulgar words and expressions,
which are never heard in respect
able circles. The utmost care on
the part of arents will scarcely
prevent it. Of course we cannot
think Of girls as being so much
exposed to this peril. We canpot
imagine a decent girl using words
she would not give utterance to
before her father or mother.
Such vulgarity is thought BY
some boys to be "smart;;" )" the
"next thing to swearing," and yet
not so wicked. 1t becomes hab-
it; it leads to profanity; it fills
the mind with evil thoughts,
it vulgarizes and degrades the
soul; it prepares the way for
many of the gross and fearful
sins which now corrupt society,".

THE THREE CRICKETs.

The first time I saw Pipo he
was lying on the wall of the public
garden in Venice, fishing with a
pin-hook. He apparently, consisted
of two brown bare legs and thing
of shreds and patches called trous'
ers. The rest of him was hanging
over the lagoon.
':HaIlo, young man. Isaid; ''stay
where you are a minute. I want to
make q sketch of you"
He lifted his head and showed
me one of those delicious child
faces that belonged only to Da Vim
els angels. Two great innocent
brown eyes looked frankly and
steadily into mine. The mouth
wore that sweet shadowy smile
which Leonardo cast over the lips
OF all his women and children.
I extended my hand, the young
hlherman dropped his pin-hook and
laid his dngy little paw therein.
ssThis is more than mere circum-
stance" ! said; "this is an affinity.
: Twill take this child into my heart
and adopt him while I stay in Ven
ice. I am poor and lonely Bohe-
mian; this delightful boy is also
a Bohemian, Judging from his
clothes. Let US be beggars and hap
py together"
I ended by promising that he
should share my humble home and
fortunes, provided his mother would
let him, clean brushes,go Of errands,
amuse the dogs, make himself gen.
orally useful, and pose for me by
the hour.
II will" he cried, tumbling of
the wall. "Come along, Illustrissi-
no."
So we went home to the dull
abode of poverty, I introduced Pi-
po to the World, Sin, and the Flesh.
Don't tremble in your virtuous
shoes. They were only my dogs

THE MARCH TO ETERNITY.
Tramp, tramp, on we 90 Witho

Tramp, tramp, on we go without
pause or respite from the cradle to
the grave. First comes progress
and increase of stature; the devel-
opment of every faculty, and cul
mination to the zenith, of the phys
ical and mental energies. Then,
retrogression is the order of nature,
and gradually, at first, but with con-
stantly accelerated pace, the frame
descends to senility, the material
essence lapsing finally into naught,
and the spiritual launching upon
the sea Of the dread unknown here
after.
Reader, this is your lot and mine,
and there is no escaping the con-
sequences of mans fall, and the
doom Of our first parents. We
must die; aye, inevitably die, despite
the apothegm that all men think all
men mortal but themselves.
Hence, when the return of a BIRTH
day marks another of the brief
stages upon life's pathway, bringing
us one stadium nearer to the goal Of
eternity, it is meet at least to pause
and reflect How stands the reck-
oning? Have we grown wiser and
better within the past twelve
months? Have feuds and animosi-
ties been forgiven and forgotten:
and enemies thereby transform
ed into friends? Have we con-
qaered self in any particular, and
risen superior to the slavery Of
injurious habits or propensities :?
Are we fonder husbands or wives,
and more tender and considerate
parents? Have we sought to pay
our honest debts and owe no
man aught save love-? Have we
endeavoredto seek the 'pearl Of
great price" and propitiate the favor
Of a long suffering and merciful
God? In short are we advancing
or retrograding in the scale Of be-
ing?
These are pertinent and impor-
tant questions, which should be
propounded and candidly answered
by every one at each return Of
his natal day.
Mans allotted existence is but
three score years and ten, and few
go beyond it. How soon then
will the hours of our probation ebb
away, and the night Of death sue
ceed, wherein s:no man can work" !"
Still the day of ones birth should
be celebrated with thanksgiving
and praise,in that God has merciful-
ly heightened out to another year
the heeting span of life, and crown
him with innumerable benefactions
and loving kindnesses. Moreover, it
ought to be seen to thatgood resolu-
tions are not only then formed, but
faithfully kept.

P1AyNe Horse IN CALHosaIa.-
The Contra Costa (Cal.) Neaos tells.
the following: 'Little Charley Va n
Anden, who is not quite three years
old, resides in San Francisco, and.
is occasionally brought to Pacheco
on a visit. He betrays an ezEaor-
dinary fondness for horses, and
when at home can hardly be kept
from the horses, where he plays
with a pet horse without fear, and
it seems without danger. He de-
lights in crawling beneath the
horse and between his feet, while
the animal moves only his head
and extends his ears as he watches
the child's gambols. Charley vas

was discovered he was sought
with alarm, and was finally found
in a stable stall with an unbroken
and unruly colt. The child had
fastened a short rope around a hind
leg of the colt, and when found
was playing boss with the utmost
glee. 4 wouldn't have tried that
trick for two hundred dollars, said
the hostler. IF it wasn't a baby

THAT HIRED GIRL.

w 0eG Sl6 came 10 WOrk lot Lle
family on Congress street the lady
of the house sat down and told
her that agents, book peddlers,
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 Sa-
rah said he'd>repulse 'em if she
had to break every broomstick in

And she did. She threw the
door open wide, bluffed right up
to 'em, and when she got through
talking the cheekiestagentwas on
ly too glad to leave. Itgot so after
awhile that peddlers 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 expecting to see a lady,
but her eyes encountered a slim
man dressed in black and wearing
a white necktie. He was the new
minister, and he was going around
to get acquainted with the men,
bers Of bis flock, but Sarah wasn't
expected to know this.

A QUAKER'S CHRISTMAS
EVE.

How slow and soft the snow dress falls
Upon the vine-deserted walls
AS if some gracious soul, intent
Upon the one sweet deed it meant,
Since in its grace such bounty lay.
Should wrap each bare thing on the way,
Till ail things white and whittier grow,
Except the shadows Earth must throw.
The tender gray, the peaceful white,
A Quaker setting make tonight;
And so this meonshine, which is shade,
Only little lighter laid,
Into my heart-still mood has crept,
With such q glow as sunrise kept
When youth and Benjamin were mine.
All! swift the slowest years incline,
And sunrise has no story ow
To move me like the night and snow.
If those unquiet bells would cease
Clsshing their peals across this peace,
1t seems the hours rare silentness
Fen worldly hearts might chide and bless
And lift the lowest heavenward
To greet the birthday of the Lord.
I cannot think the loudest bells
Can utter what pure voice tells,
The spirit needs no brazen tone
To whisper triumph to His own;
The blessed healing falls to them
Who touch unseen the garments hem;
And hidden deeds are waited higher
Than chantings Of an angel choir,
Eosanna still the mad lips cry,
While still the mad hands cruelty;
But angels watch and women weep,
And theirs the Rising after sleep.
How careth He for Christmas song
To whom al days and songs belong?
Only an ebbing love has need
It's high-tide reachings thus to heed.
Always the willing angels sing
To WORKOUT workers listening;
Always our ChE;st is in the earth,
Always his love has human birth
In JOY that crowns our later morn
AS in Judean Christmas born.
And yet mind how every year,
When my ripe birthdays draw snear,
Dear Ruth, from out her gayer life,
With worldly hope and wisdom rife,
Comes to the quiet nest once more,
Bringing the smile her father wore,
And little gracious gifts, to tell
She keeps by some high miracle
The simple heart meath costly lace,
That needs a double grant Of grace.
Though all the year Rnsh's tender eyes
To mine are openings Of the skies,
Though love unsaid be love complete,
find the special service sweet.
And so, perhaps, these louder chimes,
Smoothing the pros-toid hours to rhymes,
Like some rare voice God sets to round
The jarring ones Of shriller sound;
These spires with grand and silly art,
Climbing to reach the Central Heart;
These broken laies, and the rush
OF feet where leaning angels hush
May be to clearer eyes than mine
Fresh speltings of tale divine.
And BE whose birthday knew no bliss
Except woman's troubled kiss,
May still forgive the foolish art,
And hide the meaning in His heart.
