Perfectly Awful.

There was once an awful little girl
who had an awful way OF saying Jaw
full" to everything. She lived in al
awful house, in an awful street, in al
awful village, which was an awfG
distance from every other awful place
She went to an awful school, where
she had an awful teacher, who gave
her awful lessons out Of awful books.
Every day she was awful hungry
that she ate an awful amount OF food,
that she looked awful healthy. HeI
hat was awful small, and her
feet were awful large. She went
to an awful church and her
minister was an awful preacher.
When she took an awful walk she
climbed awful hills. and wheE she got
awful tired she sat down under az
awful tree TO rest herself. In the
summer she found the weather awful
hot, and in the winter awful cold,
When it didn't rain there was an
awful drought, and when an awful
drought was over there was an awful
rain. So that this awfu; gIrl was all
the time in an awful state, and II she
does not get over saying lawful"
about everything, she will, by and by,
come to an awful end. And this
awful little girl lives in this awful
CITY.

fritter in silence. The sunshine was
gone with il. At length with sup
pressed grOwl in the moving back
and replacing OF his chair, he arose
and left the table
In the privacy OF his own room,
nnder the solaee Of his pipe, John
Bamson soon became cool and rehee-
tive. he had the experience Of more
than q quarter OF q century of mar
ried life upon which to reflect, and as
he sat in his easy chair and smoked
he looked back over the years that
were gone, and called to nIind the
sunshine and the shadow-and bow
much Of that sunshIne-how much,
o, how much-did he owe to the true
and faithful woman who had shared
with him the trials and the labOrs Of
the years OF the shadows, how
many of tnem had come just a. this
had come. He smoked Oh thinking
deeply ali the while; and what his
thoughts had been We shall see
When he finally laid down his pipe
he spoke ID himself aloud:
what fool was : Susan was all
in good nature, ana surely Thought
herself correct, when she spoke Of
my lying abed after she aroused me.
Whist need was there of my contra
dieting her ? Don't l know that it
always stirs up indignation to be fat
ly cOntTadicted ?-and don't / know
that she is far more easily aud deep
ly moved Dy her emotion than | am
When | found that she was really
impressed with the idea that / had
been late in rising, why didn't | let
the matter go with a laugh, just as
she was laughing as sine pleasantly
laid the imputation upon me Don't
] know that it is always these trivial
nOnsensicsl matters the decision of
which one way or another don't
amount to a snap, that breed diseord
aud ill-fee1ing in the discussion Up
on matters Of real moment-matter5
involving anything OF iuterest-we
never disagree unpleasantly-never.
"As live, I won't do it again.
Surely ought 10 have learned by
this time. And / so strong, and she
so weak :" Bless her What should I
do with her ?"
And John IIamsOa went down
stairs, and found his wife and he
put his arms around her neck and
kissed her. He waited until he saw
Il smile chase away the cloud, and
the giadness came back tO his heart I;
and he repeated 70 himself
az won't do IL again. Bless her
dear heart how dark it would be
without her."
1t is a homely picture, and roughly
but many life may find
reflection of its passings therein.

Protection OF Children.

The law passed in New York for the
prevention OF cruelty to children pro-
hibits the employment OF children
under sixteen years Of age in begging
peddling, or I'm any public entertain
ment, singing, dancing or acrObatie /;
and any one so using child can be
arrested for the misdemeanor. Per
soBs exhibiting the child will be con-
sidered guilty, as we'll as those ap-
prentieing or giving it the control.
Formerly the Society could only in-
terfere when there was evidently
brutality or great danger to life and
limb, as In the case Of prince Leo,
but hereafter it will be able to compel
all exhibitions OF children to be
stopped, and II necessary, the young
performers may besent to some in-
stitutiOn. The Superintendent OF the
Society intends 70 enforce this law In
preventing the use OF the little girls
as bouquet-sellers at night, such en-
plOyment exposing the children often
to immoral associations and all per-
sons employing children in this way
will be prosecuted. The Law will also
cover the Italian "musieal cOmblns-
tion," organizations living on the
results of the labor Of the little street
musicians

salt Mountains In southern NeVada

beginning six miles up the Virgin
River, mountains of salt extend for
thirty or more miles up the Virgin
and Muddy Rivers, in Nevada. There
are openings now made from six to
twenty miles up the Virgin River at
different places. From six to twelve
miles up, the openings uncover u
species of dark gray salt, ninety-two
per centum pure, presenting to the
casual observer the appearance of COM
mon, coarse gray granite. These open
ings are all on the east side of the Vir-
gin River, from One-fOurth to One-half
miles from its banks. At q point
twenty miles up the river, and on its
western side, is q mountain of pure
white erystallized salt, white as the
driven snow and transparent almost
as glass. 1t Is at once q pleasing and
interesting spectacle TO see the great
masses OF crystsl-like salt, as thrown
out by three or four foot blast,
These pure and beautiful blocks re-
sembIe somewhat blocks of the purest
ice when prepared for the ice house.
On placing q mass six inches thick
over q column of the Chronicle, the
fine print could be read easily. The
formation OF the salt deposit is no
doubt very ancient, dating back in
years beyond computation. Long
since the deposit was made the great
upheavaIs and earthquake era have
occurred, which have changed the
whole appearance of the country for
great distances around. These salt
bluffs or mountains can be identified
for q long distance by the peculiar
color of the surface, which Is Of reddish
or orange color. Underneath this
formation, as well as in it, is q peeu-
liar kind OF micaceous sedimentary
granite.
Another very interesting natural
curiosity visited and examined here
Is q natural salt well, a mile north
west OF the ferry. It is on 8 kind OF
mesa, which extends up and down
the river on its northern bank. This
mesa is drift formsti0n, formed OF
small pebbles and bowlders mixed
with earthly matter. Tie well is q
large, circular opening in the mesa,
some 800 feet in circumference, with
abrupt descent to the surface of the
well, which IS So feet below the sur
face. The water is exceedingly salt,
far more so than any spring, and has
been sounded to q depth of $50 feet.
1t is q splendid natural salt bath, in
which tue bather floats almost as
buoyantly as q cork upon q pool of

Frozen to Death In MAY.

The Denver (Col.) NelOs of May
9th says 1.-TWO Swedes, erOssin g
the Snowy Range on foot, left the
Summit House, in BerthOud Pass,
Sunday, and started down the west
slope. They were intending to go to
Hot Sulpur Springs. Both men car
ions, each pack weighing seventy
five or eighty pounds. On Tuesday
evening one Of the men returned to
the Summit House. He was snow
blind, and frost-blttsn, and had bare
ly strength enough to walk. He re.
ported that his companion had frozen
to death. Soon after leaving the
Summit the storm set iD, and
they became beWildered, benumbed
with cold, and lost their way.
They threw away their blankets to ia
cilitate their movements, and the
matches with which they were pro-
vided heing wet, refused to ignite.
Had they been experienced mountain
