TRUE STRENGTH.

We must measure a mans strength by the
power of the feelings he subdues, not by the
power of those which subdue him. And
hence composure is often the highest result
of strength. Did we ever see a man receive
a fragrant injury, and then reply calmly?
This is a man spiritually strong. Or did we
ever see a man in anguish, stand as if carved
out of solid rock, as if mastering himself?
Or one bearing Il hopeless daily trial remain
silent, and not tell the world what cankered
his home piece? That is strength We too Of
ten mistake strong feelings for strong char
acter. \ mar who bears all before him,
before whose frown domestics tremble, and
whose burst OF fury make the children of
the household quake because he has his way
in all things, we call him a strong man.
The truth is, that is a weak man it is his
passions that are strong--he, mastered by
them, is weak.

MR.. JARRETT'S ANECDOTE OF MISS
CUSHMAN.

Harry Jarrett spoke the other night about
that Cushman farewell at Booths Theater.
The arrangement was that Miss Cushman
should receive $500 a night, and it was dis
tinctly agreed that the engagement should
be advertised as the actresses farewell to the
stage. The nights all paid well, but special
efforts were put forth to make the last night
an ovation. The public got wild oyer it,
and seats sold at a tremendous premium.
One hundred and fifty dollars We're paid for
a box. Seats sold at SIS, 81 and $40. Miss
Cushman saw all this going on, and the day
before the last Saturday she said to Mr.. jar
rett:
81 I'M feeling very badly-I think I shall
be sick tomorrow night-in fact, | know /
shall. Haven't you got some medicine you
can give me.
jarrett thought of returning the money
Of an $4,000 house and trembled. He said:
"Don't you think a 81 200 check would be
good medicine, and would ward off the sick
ness ?"
"You are my savior !" exclaimed Miss
Cushman, 81 knew you were a good ply
%sician." The extra $1,000 were given her
and she played.
In Philadelphia, the week following, bust
ness was again immense, and when the fare
well night came near, Miss Cushman said
she felt ever so much like breaking down,
but she thought that a repetition of the New
York medicine would do her good. Jar
rett & Palmer had to give her another extra
thousand.

HOW BEAUTIFUL!

Music, we are told by the poet, hath
charms to soothe the savage heart, to soften
rocks, or bend a knotted oak. But there
are some thing it can't do, and one of them
is suggested by this incident:
A sweet little creature sat next me at the
first recital of Chopin's music given by
Madame Essipoff. During the pathetic
Marche Funebre from the Sonata, Opus 35,
her attention was fixed, as if the music had
entranced her very soul. Her eyes glistened
with emotion, and her whole face was ex-
pressive of admiration and excitement.
When the pianist had finished, the gentle
man who was with this sweet little creature
turned to her and said
"How beautiful"
TO which she replied, eyes, indeed
doesn't it fit her exquisitely in the back !
How much do you suppose it cost a yard"
Rocky Mountain husbandman. [volume] (Diamond City, Mont.) 1875-1943, 1877-06-28

devotion has been perpetuated by a mon,s-
ment erected by the Baroness Burdett
Coutts. One or two more illustrations and
| have done. A young man once rowed out
into the middle of a river with a dog and
then threw him overheard. The faithful
animal chung to the boat, but was as often
driven off by his cruel master until at
length, during one of his efforts, he lost his
own balance and fell into the stream. Did
the dog desert him? No; he seized him by
his clothes and held him above water until
succor arrived. One of those cruel enthusi-
asts known as dissectors of living animals,
being once in need of a subject, actually
took his own dog, which had been for years
in his family, confined him to a table and
ripped him up as thought had been a sense
less object. The suffering creature groaned
and howled in his agony, and just before dy-
ing raised his head and licked the hand Of
his savage tormentor.

A HAPPY WOMAN.
thousand,

Here is something for the fair sex. A hap
Ply woman Is she not the very and sparkle
sunshine of life? A woman who is happy
because she can't help it-whose smile even
the coolest sprinkle Of misfortune cannot
dampen. Men make q terrible mistake
when they marry for beauty, for talent or
for style. The sweetest wives are those
who possess the magic secret Of being con-
tented under any circumstances. Rich or
poor, high or low, it makes no difference
the fount of joy bubbles up just as music
ally in their hearts.

SLEEP.

sleep. DR.. W. A. Hammond says, may be
defined as general repose. Almost all the
organs rest during sleep. The heart, popu-
larlv supposed to be in perpetual motion, is
at resi- 6 hours out of the "a, the respiratory
ORGANS s. and the other organs more or less.
The brain alone is constantly employed DUR
mo wakefulness, and for it sleep was form
al and made needful to its preservation. 1t
;s true that sleep does not give the brain a
total recess from labor; imagination and
memory are often wildly active during
Gloom and unconscious cerebration likewise
takes place, but enough rest is obtained for
tho renovation of the brain, and that which
h.s heen torn down during wakefulness is
Rocky Mountain husbandman. [volume] (Diamond City, Mont.) 1875-1943, 1877-06-28

TO a certain extent rebuilt. Sleep is a most
wonderful power-often stronger than the
Will, as in the case of the sleeping soldier
and more mighty than pain, as when sick
persons and tortured prisoners sleep in the
mldst of their suffering. No torture, 1t is
said, has been found equal to the preven-
ton of sleep. The amount of sleep needed
differs according to the constitution and hab-
its. Big brains and persons who perform
much brain labor need a large amount of
sleep. Children need more sleep than
grown people because construction is more
active than decay in their brains.

Drifting the blue waves upon.
Drifting, rapidly drifting,

And dance DER the waves in glee.

A beautiful face is one of Gods beautiful

that you cannot keep your eyes from her,
ugly though she be and the face of the old
gentleman grows radiant as it turns coward

you look, the angularties melt away into
the fine flowing lines, and the holnely text
of her face, hour by hour, and feature by

meaning, that is as subtle and penetrating
in its influence as beauty itself. And if an

WHAT ANIMALS HAVE DONE FOR MEN.
They have had a splendid show OF small
animals in New York, and at the opening
and address was delivered by DR.. Bergh,
well known as a friend of the poor dumb
brutes. In this address he said:
The connection of animals with the affairs
of mankind is more remarkable than is gen
orally recognized. Let me cite a few in.
stances: The protest of Balaam's ass pre-
vented the commission Of a great crime
against heaven, and the cackling of geese
saved Rome. When the armies of James II
and William were confronting one another
the noise made by a wren picking up some
crumbs from the top of a drum awoke thu
sleeping drummer and thus saved the army
of William. God is in the zephyr as well al
in the whirlwind, and the moth is as eflec
tive an instrument in his hands as the thun
derbolt. Scott tells us that the most splen
did event in the history of Scotland-the as
cent OF Bruce to the throne-was owing t.
a simple spider, and one of the creates
naval victories of England resulted from tn
growing of a cock. The dog has detected
and brought murderers to justice. In al
ages he has been the intimate companion @
the mightiest of the earth as we'll as tn
most humble. In his affection he is til
equal of mankind, and his services canno
be over-estimated. The st. Bernard do
named Barry, during - years OF service 0
the mountains, saved the lives Of forty tla'
elers.

"Tfme Proveth All Things. :"

From Fargo to Bismarck 1914 miles, the
railroad passes through an unbroken prai-
rie wilderness, with but two stations in
the entire distance -D0k0ta Herald.
1t is probably good thing that great
men will differ sometimes in their opin-
ions. Mr.. j. Lowell has just left Bis
marck, having ridden over the ''unbro-
ken prairie wilderness" described in the
above, and he is earnestly at work to Or
gani<e colony of Names yeemanry for
the purpose of securing a large portion of
this very land for agricultural purposes.
This shrewed, live Yankee knows what
he is about, and the time is not far dis.
tant, say two years, when this s'unbroken
prairie" will be one continuous field OF
cereals from Bismarck to Fargo. And
those two stations will then have increas-
ed so that they will be multiplied by ten
in order to accommodate the many far
mers who will erect such mansions on
the route as will be but beauty spots re-
hected on that ''unbroken prairie wilder
ness.'

You asked nae to give my opinion of

Hills. In the interest Of my paper, the
St. Paul Dispatch, have travelled over
every inch of the Hills, and among
other things have noted minutely the
appointments of the stage lines and
have travelled on all of them, and when
say that the Bismarck line surpasses
all the rest, almost incomparablY, l
make the assertion as a disinterested
individual who has had ample means OF
judging. The stock Of the Bismarck
line is very superior to the stock Of any
other line; they are heavier and more
powerful animals, and yet possess sui
ficiescy of speed to assure tho traveller

pleasant affair, and three gentlemen

Courier Arrived.

Thomas Morton who started out from
Lincoln on the 18th ult., arrived home
Saturday-evening. He had no particular
trouble in getting through to Tongue
River, with the exception OF being de-
layed day or two while on his way up
there. He saw small party of Indians
on this side of the bad lands, but not be-
ing perceived by them, he was soon ena-
bled to get out of their reach. Then he
saw another party of red skins some dis
tance off, on the other side of the Little
Missouri who we're travelling northward,
but were soon out of sight. He crossed
the trail of about three hundred Indians
in the bad lands, who are supposed to be
the ones that made SO much trouble IN
the Black Hills about a month ago. They
don't seem to belong to either the Nez
Percez or to Sitting Bulls command, but
are renegades from agencies looking out
for small unprotected parties to pick them
up. In ether words they are outlaws and
should be locked after. They are not
over one hundred miles from here, and it
would be but little trouble to clean them
out and rid the country of set of worth
less vagabonds. Aside from the country
on the Little Missouri, both on this side
and the other, there were no Indians to
be seen. After stopping one day with
Gen. Miles, he boarded the steamer Rose
Bud and came home. Tom is an excel
lent man for the business, and General
Miles would certainly be glad to secure
his services He is like all frst-class
scouts, quiet and genial in his general de-
pertinent, but as determined as Sitting
Bull himself when he has duty to per-
form.
