RICH WITHOUT MONEY.

Many man is rich without money.
Thousands of men with nothing in
their pockets, and thousands without
even pocket, are rich. A man born
with a good sound constitution, a good
stomach, a good heart, and good limbs,
and Il pretty good head-piece. is rich.
Good bones are better than gold ;
tough muscles than silver; and nerves
that flash and fire and carry energy to
every function are better than houses
and land. 1t is better than landed
estate to have the right kind OF q IA
ther and mother. Good breeds and
bad breeds exist among men as really
as among herds and horses. Educa-
tion may do much to check evil ten
denotes or to develop good ones but it
is great thing to inherit the right pro-
portion Of faculties to start with. The
man is rich who has l. good disposition
who is naturally kind, patient, cheer.
full, hopeful, and who has flavor of
wit and fun in his composition.

A MODEL FAR I-GATE.

My father spent one whole summer
on Il farm gate which was model of
its kind. Two of them would have
taken up small farm. 1t was ono Of
the most perfect things to climb over
that you ever saw. 1t would give em-
ploymcnt to two men to open it. A
small engine would work it easily. 1
suggested to the Old gentleman an i'm
provement by placing the boards wider
apart, so it would be handler to crawl
through. He suggested an improve
ment in my manners with sh Ngle.
1t was nearly as good as a pair OF Sip
bars. 1t was SO hard to open that L
always went to one side and climbed
the fence. He finally remodledd it aud
fixed it SO he could drive through it
without getting out by letting the
tongue of the wagon strike it and
knock it down, but he had to get out
when through and Sc: it up again. He
afterwlrd rcmodclcd it into stove
wood,

DOWN THE MISSISSIPPI.

In the Spring of 1874, Mr.. John P.
cluded TO carry out an idea which he
had long since conceived, of devoting
few years Of his life to the prose-
cution Of work illustrative OF the
grand and varied scenery through
which the Father Of Waters" flows
from It's headwatcrs to the Gulf. AZ
ter making all his arrangements for
departure west, Mr.. Doremus started
out for Minnesota, and on the Goth Of
July in that year, found himself at
Minneapolis, standing or the deck of
his own boat, called in token Of his
enterprise the Success, and so fitted
up rs to combine all the requirements
Of dwelling, pleasure boat, and pho
tograph gallery. Upon this commo-
dious craft he started out upon his
long journey for the fair South, float
ing down o. the smooth current of the
river, stopping first at the romantic
Minnehaha Creek, then at Fort Shell
ling and Mendoza, the oldest settle
ment in the State ,rext at St, Paul, and
finally at Prescott, at the confluence
of the st. Croix, up which river, with
its picturesque Dalles, the tiny craft
was turned to Osceola. Here winter
overlook our wandering artist, and,
fastening up his boat he came East,
returning in the Spring, to find that
the Success had frozen fast to the river
bottom. Nothing dauntcd he, by the
aid of friends, put her in repair, and
again in April started on his South
ward journey. Regaining the Missis-
sippi, he stopped in turn at Diamond
Bluff and Red Wing,and then emerged
upon the broad, mirror-like waters
of Lake Pepin. Here u storm over
took him, and very near made an end
of the Success, but the boat survived it,
reached Maiden Rock, Wis, in safety,
thence passed out of Lake Pepin at its
Southern Extremity, and in October
reached Minnesota, where Winter
again compelled it and its commander
to stop. Next season Mr. Doremus
hopes to get as far South as Dubuque,
or Davenport, Iowa, calculating that
the entire trip TO New Orleans will
consume period Of ABOUT five years.
At each point of interest on the river
thus far he has taken fine series Of
views, which when complete and
brought together in q descriptive book
will make IL standard work on the Mis-
sissippi, and be an honor to the artist
who conctibuted it to the literature Of
the country.

CURIOSITIES OF LIFE,

Lay your finger on your pulse, and
know that every stroke some immor-
tai passes to his Maker: some fellow
being crosses the river of death; and,
If we think Of it, we may we'll wonder
that it should be so long before our
turn comes, Half of all who live die
before seventeen. Only one person in
ten thousand lives to be one hundred
years old, and but one in a hundred
reaches sixty. The married live longer
than the single. There is one soldier
to every eight persons, and out of
every thousand born only ninety-five
weddings take place. If you take q
thousand persons who have reached
seventy years, there are Of clergymen,
orators aud public speakers, forty
three; soldiers, tLirty~two: lawyers,
twenty-n!Ge professors, s,twenty-seven !;
doctors, tWcnty-fou",
