AN EQUAL DIvIsIoN.-"It's Christmas
tomorrow" said Captain Jack Miller to
his steward, sand you may put some
plums in the cabin duff, but don't use
many, and put 'em all i'll one end. l
can't afford to give the mate plum-duff. "
"Plums in the duff to-day, steward %
said the mate next morning.
.Yes, SIR" said the steward, "but
you won't get none; they're all goin' in
the old mans end"
That day, when the duff came upon
the table, just as the captain was going
to help the mate to duff, that officer qui-
etly turned the dish, remarking, as he
did SO, That's curious old ware, Cap
tain Miller"
"Yes," said the captain, as he restor-
ed the dish to its former position 1--we
had that plate for long time"
MAY | ask" said the mate, once
more turning the dish, where you got
that plate ?"
II think. if recollect right" said
! the captain, as he put the blank end of

A SURE CURE FOR "HUMPs. "A
dashing woman, with an enormous bus
tie, came teetcring into an incoming Chi
cago train, the other morning. and set
tied herself in seat opposite an old
Granger, who was coming up to see the
city.
My darter Jane was once took with
one of them ere humps" remarked the
old man, as he turned his plying gaze
from the woman to fellow passenger.
"She was ?'' inquired the passenger.
"Yes," was the reply, "but yer kin
jest bet 1 cured her on it mighty quick.
What did you do % inquired the
amused passenger.
II sot her down in tub of hot water
till the dorned thing wilted." declared
the old man, "and it never come on
agin !"
The dashing woman and other passen-
gers who had overheard the conversation
liked to have "wilted" without the hot
water.

and the central position of Wellington.
at Hougoumont, was held firmly. The
French fire of artillery was of terrible
severity, and by their solid column as
saults they confidently expected to break
Wellington's rank. Once these COM
pact squares were broken. the French
cavalry, and the famous Old Guard in
reserve, would make the break rout
and victory.
But the English and Germans were a
very wall of adamant; they never wav-
cred. The HanoveriaEs lost their posit-
ion about seven o'clock, just as Blucher's
guns were heard in the distance. Ma
poleon must sSriko then his heaviest
blow or all was lost. Calling up the
Old Guard, he sent it in to turn Well
ington's right center. The charge was
magnlfcently made, but, like every
other charge, was unable to break the
living wall.
The Guard became confused and de-
moralized by the dreadful carnage.
This was Wellington's propitious mo-
ment. He advanced his whole line, in
solid columns, sweeping everything be-
fore him. Napoleon's line was struck.
broken, and the day was lost to the
"Man of Destiny'-his star had gone
down forever. Blucher coming up at
this moment, was giving the pursuit,
that only ended in the quick disband-
ment of the whole French army
Wellington's second return was one
grand ovation. King and Parliament
could bestow no more honors on him.
Parliament, however, gave two hundred
thousand asg! pounds 1g g0T1s T1sefflGington's after
career as stateman and member of the
various ministries we need not here ad-
vert. He was honesty itself-a cool
headed, right minded man, and ever
maintained an influence in Parliament
and Cabinet that may we'll be charact-
erized as supreme. He, however, was
very careful in using that influence.
He died in 1862, and was buried in
St Paul's cathedral, near the remains
of the illustrious Admiral, Horatio Mel
son, who added such glory to the En-
glish navy that it seemed fitting to
bury the two crest captains together,
with a cathedral for their tomb.

HOW TO PROVIDE FOR A FAMILY.

This is a very difficult question. Gov
ernment bonds, or those of any state, ci-
ty or county, may be lost or stolen.
Railroad or bank or any other stocks,
are subject to the manipulations of man
ayers. Mortgages are the most trouble
some and unsatisfactory of securities. es-
pecially when heavy fall takes place
in property. And, considering all these
things, it is perhaps fortunate that nine
in ten of mankind have nothing to in
vest.
For the ten per cent of the population
who can lay up money we would make
few suggestions. The best investment
of all is in the health, intelligence and
religion of your family. Let nothing
be wanting in the shape of wholesome
food, comfortable clothing and lodging,
and healthy exercise to secure a good
constitution for children. Let nothing
be wanting either in the family, or in
church, Sunday-school or day-school
privileges. to secure we'll cultivated and
trained minds. These are investments
that no board of directors can make
away with and no robber can approach.
The next investment is to lay out
Whether it be farming, manufacturing,
or store-keeping, buy everything for cash
as soon as you can and have every need
ed or paying improvement made. Let
merchants, mechanics, &C., invest as
soon as they have surplus in dwell
ing house OF their own, with plot of
ground. 1t is a wonderful advantage
for children to have homestead which
they can ornament and to which they
can look back with pleasure in after life.
Let this be free from debt, however, as
soon as possible, as a mortgaged home
is a continual source of anxiety.
A father who has family we'll train
ed for time and eternity. and a goodly
treasure laid up in heaven in the shape
of liberal gifts to the Lords cause and

think it necessary to accumulate, if they
can, something to leave after them, and
money so left has often been much need

to be decided on its merits. and accord

A PRINTERS DREAM.

A printer sat in his Office chair, his
hAnte r-e-~ r,~t-I l II L.: ~zs.s si--s,,sa
bare; and his face looked weary and
worn with care. While sadly thinking
of business debt, old Morpheus slowly
round him crept, and before he knew it
he soundly slept and sleeping, be
dreamed that he was dead from trouble
and toll his spirit had fed, and not even
a COW bell tolled for the peaceful rest of
his cowhide sole. AS he wandered among
the shades, that smoke and scorch in
lower hades. he shortly observed an iron
door that creaking swung on hinges ajar,
but the entrance was closed with a red
hot bar, and satan himself stood peeping
out. and watching for travellers therea-
bout, and thus to the passing printer
spoke
Come in, my dear. it shall cost you
nothing, and never fear; this is the
| place where | cook the ones who never
pay their subscription sums for though
in life they may escape, they will find
when they're dead it is too late | will
show you the place where | melt them
thin with red-hot chains and scraps Of
tin, and also where comb their heads
with broken glass and melted lead, and
if of refreshments they only think, there
is boiling water for them to drink
there the red-hot grindstone to grind
down his nose, and red-hot rings to veal
on his toes, and if they mention they
don't like fire, I'll sew up their mouths
with red-hot wire and then, dear sir
you should see them squirm, while
roll them over and cook to turn"
With these last words the printer
awoke, and thought it all a practica
joke. but still at times so real did i
seem, that he cannot believe it was all ;
dream and often he thinks with ;
chuckle and grin, of the fate of thos,
who save their tin, and never pay th,
printer.

TIRED MOTHERS.
A little elbow leans upon your knee.

A little elbow leans upon your knee,
Your tired knee, that has so much TO bear:
A chd's dear eyes are looking lovingly
From underneath thatch OF tangled hair.
Perhaps you do net heed the velvet touch
or warm, moist fingers, folding yours so tight;
You do not prize the blessing over-much,
You almost are too tired to pray tonight
But is IL blessedness? d? A year ago
did not see it as | do to-day
We are so dun and thankless and too slow
To catch the sunshine till it slips away.
And now it seems surprising strange to me.
That, while wore the badge of motherhood.
I did not kiss more Oft and tenderly
The little child that brought me only good
And II, some night when you sit down to rest.
You miss this elbow from youI tired knee
This restless, curling head from of your breast.
This lispng tongue that chatters constantly;
II from your own the dimpled hands had clasped
And ne'er would nestle in your palm again;
If the white feet into their grave had tripped,
could not blame you for your heartache theni
wonder so that mothers ever fret
Al little children clinging to their gowns:
Or that the footprints when the days are wet,
Are ever black enough TO make them frown.
II / could end little muddy boot,
Or cap. or josLot. Is. Sh~--Ns- a~~--,
If could kiss a rosy restless foot.
And hear its patter in my home once more.
II / could mend broken cart to-day
Tomorrow make kite to reach the sky
There is no woman in Gods world could say
She was more blissfully content than
But ah the dainty pillow next my own
Is never rumpled by a shining head;
My singing brdling from the nest is flown:

A farmer of York, Pa, recently set a
trap to catch cunning fox which had
been annoying him considerably by its
midnight visits among the poultry. AT
fourteen successive visits to it he found
the trap sprung, stick of wood between
its jaws, and the bait eaten up. The cir
cumstance, so often repeated, surprised
him. There were no other tracks to be
seen but his own and those of the fox,
and what sprang the trap was a ques
tion that puzzled him sorely. By con.
tinuing to rebait his trap he hoped tc
catch the author of the mischief On the
fifteenth night he found fine old fox
hung to it by the nose, and in his mouth
was stick of wood
