And here the old doctors voice broke
forth under the sonorous arches of the
wood in the music of the church service
that he knew by heart. We had heard it
lately in the midst of flowers and light
and friends, organ strains and bell notes
but here in the solitude Of the forest, and
the great darkness and the falling snow,
as the wedding-prayer rang out, it was
inexpressibly solemn. We felt a. if great
spirits were the company before whom
we gave and pledged our troth, and if we
did not kneel to the blessing, nevertheless
it seemed to fall upon our bent heads like

be as merry as we could till sunrise, with
the snow still falling softly round us.
And very merry we were. We TESTED and
spared and told stories; the old doctor
reci,ed the adventures of his youth; in
vited the two to come and make another
night of it, watching the old year out at
the farm presently; and at length Rose
sang sweet old German hymn that SCARED
and went as far o. an angels song through
the wood. And thereat, Mr.. Tiffany, who
had once been q chorister, began an old
hymn we all knew:

How 10 Make RuAtneas Good.

If business is not good with any of our
readers, the only thing and the best thing
for you to do is to go to work at once and
make it so. Do not look to congress or
anybody else to do this or that to i'm.
prove business. Remember that you are
the architect of your own fortunes; that
it is as you make it, good or bad; and
from yourself alone must come the best
relief 10 any hour OF difficulty. In order
to effect this, you must make your exis.
tence known By keeping your name aud
your goods constantly before the public,
by means Of advertisements in the besr
mediums for your business. You mus
attract trade, and not imagine that it will
seek you out. Do not let your custom.
ers forget you, but constantly remind
them Of your facilities for business
Don't place the blame on the times, il
you are yourself not up to the times, aud
the methods Of attracting trade and do
ing business.
