A Struggle for Appearances.

A ST. LOUIS paper relates an instance
Of the pride of child who struggled to
keep up appearances in way that was
touching to witness. The hopelessness of
the endeavor was made painfully mani
fest by the well-meant action Of her teach
er, and the facts are these:
Just before the close of the last session
Of the public schools in that city, an in
cident took place which, as an illustra-
ton, is more than touching. At one of
the schools, numbers of the pupils were
in the habit Of bringing luncheon with
them, which at noon they ate together.
Among those who did not 90 home for
dinner, the teacher in a particular man
ner noticed little girl who always sat
looking wistfully at her playnates when
they went out with their luncheon, but
who never brought any herself.
The child was always neatly but very
poorly clad, and one of the closest stu
dents in school hours. This odd action
OF the child lasted for some time, when
one day the teacher noticed that the little
thing had apparently brought her dinner
with her. The noon hour came, and the
children took their lunch as usual and
went out to eat it, the little girl referred
to alone remaining in the room, with her
dinner wrapped up in paper on the desk
before her. The teacher advanced to the
child and asked why she didn't go out
with the rest, at the same time putting
out her hand toward the package on the
desk. Quick as thought the little girl
clasped her hands over it and exclaimed.
sobbing;
Don't touch it, teacher, and don'ttell
please! It's Only blocks!'
And that was the fact. Having no din
ner to bring, and too proud to reveal the
poverty of her family, the child had care
fully wrapped up number Of small
blocks in paper and brought the package
to present the appearance Of lunch 1t
was nothing; mere ridiculous incident
in school life; but it was sufficient to
make wiser and older hearts than hers sad,
All that tread the globe are but hand
tul to the tribes that slumber in its bosom.

Evenings at Home.

REMEMBER IN my seminary days our
lady principal began little talk to us one
morning in this way:
" Young ladies, am going to make
you all clairvoyants. In that state you
know you can see things not present to
the eye Now, then, you are all back in
your rooms, look at your study tables,
are books, papers, pens and ink in place?
See your wash stand, do you see unemp-
tied bowls? Now look up to the top of
your stove-pipes, do your clairvoyant eyes
see any dust? Take look under the bed,
are there any rolls OF lint? Open your
closet-doors, do dresses, hat and cloak
hang on their hooks; are boots and rub
bers set up clean and tidy; are the
shelves in order? Shut your closets and
look again we'll around the room. Does
it look as though you flew out and left
your chairs anyhow when the chapel bell
struck ~
Now, dear young folks, as we gather
around the evening lamp, suppose I
make you clairvoyants and ask you the
same questions. How did you leave your
own rooms this morning? How have they
been through the day, and how do you
expect to find them when you retire to-
night? Carpet swept, chairs, stand and
table in order, curtains evenly Topped, or
evenly rolled, and bed so smooth and even
that it will seem good to lie down in it?
Remember ones own room, from day to
day, tells the story of the character Of its
occupant.
"Well," say the boys, &C that does very
we'll for the girls. The girls take care of
our rooms; | wish they would be as nice
as that" Boys, did you ever think how
much work it is for your sisters or your
mother to keep all the rooms nice every
day? "Well, that is their business" To
be sure it is, but you can help them a
great deal. if you will. How very easy
for you, when you spring out of the bed
in the morning, to draw the bed right
back smoothly upon a chair at the foot,
and when you leave the chamber how
easy to open the sash Then when the
sister comes she finds the room and bed
aired, and all ready for her to " fix nice"
All, but how many boys leave their bed in
snarl and tangle, and perhaps have
worn dirty boots UP the stairs. too!
But there is little infrospection | may
ask you to make this evening, not con-
nected with tidy looms so much as with
tidy hearts and well-kept tongues. Boys,
who Of you have spoken cross or Unkind
words to your sister or to each other to-
day? Who has been unwilling to rest
mother by tending the baby? Who has
felt fretted and thOrny when asked to help
about some work or chore? Girls, who
has said, 80, can't" when little broth
er or sister has asked you to lace shoe,
to give string, to find a toy, to come and
play? Well, as you think of it, and the
little monitor within says, "wrong,
wrong" do not shrink from going and
saying, 4" l am sorry spoke cross to you
today" or, g l am sorry l did not help
you when you wished. I will next time"
Because these little confessions are Won
derful helps to start right again, and Won
derful strengtheners OF family Affection

THE GUTDE-POST.

Translated by Bayard Taylor from the Allemal
MIA German dialect of John Peter Hebel.
DYE know the road to tn bar'l of flour?
At break o. day let down the bars,
And pillow your wheat field hour by hour
Till sundown-yes, till shine of stars.
You peg away the live-long day,
Nor loaf about, nor cape around:
And that's the road to the threshin: floor,
And into the kitchen, I'll be houndi
Dye know the road where the dollars are?
Follow the red cents here and there;
For, if a man leaves them, guess
He won't find dollars anywhere
Dye know the road to Sundays rest?
Jist don't of week days be Altered;
In field and workshop do y'r best,
And Sunday comes ITSELF I've heered.
Dye know what road to honor leads?
And good old age?-a lovely sight!
BY way o temperance, honest deeds,
And tryin' to do y'r dooty right.
and when the road forks airy side,
And you're in doubt which one it is,
Stand still and let yr conscience guide;
Thank God, it can't lead much amiss!
Go, fearin' God, but lOvin' more!
I've tried to be an honest guide.
You find the grave has got door,
And somethin' for you tother side.

Springs.

A SPRING is always vital point in the
landscape; it is indeed the eye of the
fields, and how often, too, it has noble
eyebrow in the shape Of an overhanging
bank Or ledge. Or else its site is marked
by some tree which the pioneer has wise
ly left standing, and which sheds cool
ness and freshness that makes the water
more sweet. In the shade of this tree the
harvesters sit and eat their lunch and look
out upon the quivering air of the fields.
Here the Sunday saunterer stops and
lounges with his book, and bathes his
Hither the strawberry girl comes with her
basket and pauses moment in the green
shade. The plowman leaves his pillow
and in long strides approaches the life
renewing spot, while his team, that cam
not follow, look wistfully after him. Here
the cattle love to pass the heat Of the day,
and hither come the birds to wash them
selves and make their toilets.
Indeed, spring is always an oasis in
the desert Of the fields. 1t is creative
things to itself-the grasses, the MOSES,
the flowers, the wild plants, the great
trees. The walker finds it out, the camp
ing party. seek it, the pioneer builds his
nut or his house near it. When the set
tier or squatter has found good spring,
he has found a good place to begin life;
he has found the fountain head of much
that he is seeking in this world. The
chances are that he has found a southern
and eastern exposure; for it is fact that
water does not readily flow north; the val
legs mostly open the other way; and it is
quite certain he has found measure OF
salubrity; for where water flows, fever
abideth not. The spring, too, keeps him
to the ring belt, out of the low valley and
off the top of the hill.
Then there seems kind OF perpet-
ual spring-.ime about the place where
water issues from the grOund-a freshness
and greeness that are ever renewed. Inc
grass never fades, the ground is never
parched or frozen. There is warmth
there in winter and GOODNESS in summer.
The temperature is eQualiZed. In March
or April the spring runs are bright
emerald, while the surrounding fields are
yet brown and sere, and in fall they are
vet green when the first snow covers them.
Thus every fountain by the roadside is a
fountain of youth and of life. This is
what the old fables finally mean.--JOhn

"A suit for damages has been brought
against the Central Vermont Railroad by
the widow of Mr. Bissell, Of the Sherman
House. Chicago, who was killed in the
railroad accident at South Wallingford a
short time since. The company will con
test the claim on the ground that the
father came to his death while trying to
save his son, and not as a result of the ac-
cident, and that the son was riding on
free pass, by accepting which he had dis
charged the company from liability. The
question is a novel one.

A Strange Scene in n New Orleans
Theater.


Theater.
The large and fashionable audience at
the st. Charles Theater matinee on Satur-
day were treated to a scene which was
not only not down on the bills, but which
was of such an extraordinary nature that
we doubt if anything similar has ever oc-
CURED.
Just as the orchestra had concluded the
overture and the curtain was about to be
raised on the performance, the attention,
of he audience was directed to the right
hand corner of the stage, where a slight
scutfle was going on.
In a few moments one of the party, a
large, well-built man, dashed upon the
stage, and rushing down to the footlights,
took off his hat and shouted to the
audience: I" | am Goo, and without my
consent there shall be no performance
here to-day" then turning toward the
curtain, he began to aposuophize it, say
ing, "Unroll thou but here he was
interrupted and seized by some of the
costumes to aid in the capture of the
lunatic-for he was evidently such. After
quite a struggle they succeeded in taking
the man behind the scenes, and quiet
was soon restored among the audience,
who had, of course, become greatly ex-
cited.
All were busy discussing the matter,
specializing as to the individuality of the
principal actors and commenting upon
the remarkable character of the scene.
The turmoil consequent upon the occur
renee had about died away when f1utter
of excitement was noticed in the back part
of the dress circle.
The ladies and children seated there
were noticed running toward the stage,
shrieking, and all evidently greatly ex-
cited. Upon investigation it was discov-
cred that the same individual who had
caused the first excitement had escaped
from his friends, and was about to renew
his exhibition.
Running along the side of the dress
circle he reached the left proscenium box,
and before he could be stopped, dashed up
stairs into the box above, and locking
himself in, took front seat, and remov-
ing his hat began gesticulating at the
audience in the most vehement and ex-
cited manner.
Taking from his pocket bible, he
1ourished it around, pointing with great
earnestness to some particular Individual
down stairs.
The police and ushers rushed up after
him, and were compelled to force the door
in order to again secure him. He was
finally taken in charge and forced out of
the theater.
Inquiry proved him to be DR.. Terry,
who is crazy upon the subject Of spiritual
ism, and who was evidently taken with
one of his violent attacks. 1t took some
time to restore order and to quiet the
ladies and children, all of whom were
terribly excited.
When, however, ali became quite GER
tain that effective means had been taken
to prevent a recurrence of the scenes Just
enacted, order was soon restored, and in a
few moments the regular performance fol-
lowed this extraordinary prologue.
Those who were present will long re-
member the occurrence, which must
occupy position as the most remarkable
event of the kind that has ever occurred
in any theater.-New Orleans Bulletin.

TON NOD.

He pops in through the keyhole
To make a friendly call,
When the evening freight
Paints pictures on the wall.
He drones drowsy ditty-
So quaint he is and odd
And pretty eyes begin to wink
Whene'er they see Tom Nod.
He goes to church on Sunday
The parson knows him well;
In downy pews he fingers,
lovely dream TO tell.
In palaces and novels
He enters, lightly shod;
And eyes grown dim with weeping,
Oh! how they bless Tom Nod!
He is roguish fairy,
That haunts the poppy-fower,
And all the wide world over
He visits hour by hour.
Bright eyes, you soon will see him
So quaint he is and odd;
Then goodnight kiss, my darlings,
And one for old Tom Nod!
