those who emigrate to any new or distant
country must expect to find many things
that are hard and unpleasant.
For depth and fertility of soil, Kansas
and many of the Western States far ex-
ceed any other section of the continent,
and the time will come, ere long, when
they will not only be the garden spot of
the continent, but wealth and luxury
will abound within them.
From my present observations and ex-
periences, am inclined to believe that
for the people born and bred under the
shadows of the Green Mountains, there
is no place where they can be happier,
and find more that benefits, pleases and
ennobles, than in the good old State of
Vermont. Happy is the man whose
pleasant home nestles among her pleas
ant hills, and who is Herewith content.

LITTLE BY LITTLE.-If vnu are gain
ing little every day be content. Are
your expenses less than your
income, so that though it be
little. you are constantly accumu-
lating and growing richer every day ?
Be content; SO far as concerns money,
you are doing well. Are you gaining
knowledge every day Though it be
little by little, the aggregate of the
accumulation, where no day is allowed
to pass without adding something to the
stock, will be surprising to yourself.
Solomon did not become the wlsest man
in the world in a minute. Little by
little-never emitting to learn some
thing. even for single day-always
reading, always studying little be-
tween the time of rising up in the
morning and lying down at night-this
is the way to accumulate full store
house of knowledge. Finally, are you
daily improving in character Be not
discouraged because it is little by little.
The best men fall short of what they
themselves would like to be. 1t IS
something, it is much if you keep good
resolutions better to-day than you did
yesterday. better this week than you
did last, better this year than you did
last year.

A PICTURE.

Two little souls. a boy and girl,
Wandering on to the foot OF the hill.
Bushes Of green and blossoms Of pearl
Laugh at themselves in the roadside rill.
Crossing the lane gorgeous jay,
Bathed in the light of flattering ray.
Jauntily chatters ''some day, some dayr"
Two sweet souls, a man and a maid,
(Beechen branches twisted above,)
Picking the daisies which sprinkle glade.
And trying their luck at game of 1--we:
"This yearl" Next year!" What do they say9
And out of the beeches the curious jay
Peeps and chuckles, "some day, some day!"
Two old souls, and the end OF the day
Follows them home 70 the foot Of the hill;
One late CLEAN which has wandered astray
Breaks from copse and dimples the rill.
Autumn leaves are strewng the way,
And hoarse from the larch and hungry jay
Shouts out to the night 'some day, some dayr
Two poor souls in the dead Of the night
Side by side. lie stinened and still;
And the winters moon just softens her light,
As 1t solemnly rests at the foot Of the hill
Remembering the bees and the buds and the May
The Summer gold and the Autumn gray.
And the warm green lane where the beetles play,
In the crisp cold night the thivering jay
Croaks out Of his dream. "some day. some dayi"

PRoFAN1TY.-We are emphatically in
the age of profanity, and it seems to us
that we are on the topmost current. One
cannot go on the street anywhere with
out having his ears offended with the
vilest words, and his reverence shocked
by the most profane use Of sacred
names. Nor does it come from the old
or middle-aged alone, for it is fact
that the younger portion of the commun.

smart to swear; that it makes them

A BURLINGTON RIFLE RANGE.-The
Burlington Amateur Rifle Club will send
team to compete for the prizes at the
international contest next year. The
club is going into arduous practice and
training at once, and has already con-
structed rife range on the South Hill
grounds, that is the most complete in its
way, and affords the finest scope for ac-
curate shooting that we ever saw. The
range consists of nine long stretches of
two inch gas pipe. eighty five yards in
length. the pipe being supported on tres
ties at distance of four feet from the
ground. In practice, the riheman sticks
the muzzle of his rifle into the home end
of the gas pipe. The target bearer,
sitting on the ground. then holds the
target up against the other end, and the
marksman fires at will. Thus far the
practice has been perfect, and only two
misses have besn made, and in one in
stance it was the fault of the target
holder, who took the target away. out of
pure malice, when he heard the bullet
rattling down the pipe, and in the other
instance it was the fault of the man who
loads the guns, who put the bullet in
first and then filled the rife with pow
der. If the Burlington boys go to
Creedmoor or Wimbledon next year we
know they will bring home the shield
and cup, if they can get enough iron
tubing to reach across the range.-Bur.

A ROMANCE.

Though met her but a minute,
Yet her smile spoke volumes in it,
And l swore that would win IL,
To be mine for now ard aye.
So the next time that saw her.
On my knees fell before her
And with fervor did implore her
With me to live and die.
As ] poured my soul out to her,
In my attempt to WOO her,
said that while knew her.
No other love I'd know.
And no harm should e'er betide her,
II she'd let me walk beside her,
Through the paths OF life to guide her,
In her journey here below.
SO when my word was spoken,
In silence all unbroken.
/ waited for a token
Or expression OF her love.
And her cheek was dyed with fushes,
Colored by her own sweet bushes.
As with voice as soft as thrushes
Or the cooling Of a dove,
Answered me my loved divinity.
Saying. : ] would be your affinity.
But a tie Of consanguinity
Compels me to say nay;
To one husband I'm restricted,
And with that I'm now afflicted,
And as more are interdicted,
III bid you now good-day."

manly but there never was greater
mistake in the world. Men, even those
who swear themselves. are disgusted
with profanity in young man, because
they know how, of all bad habits, this
clings the most closely and increases
with years. 1t is the most lnsiduous of
habits. growing on one SO invisibly,
that, almost before one is aware, he be-
comes an accomplished curser.-Er-

DON,TS FOR OLD MAIDS.

Don't get soured with the whole world
because some Of the brothers didn't take
you in out of the cold; maybe it was
your fault.
Don't think when you look back thro'
the vista of years and see yourself, in.
imagination, leaning over the garden
gate with that fellow on the other side,
might have @aaf1 Oh1y besa searFSE iSSE-u escape ne
Don't think if you had it all to do
over again you would do differently and
better The probabilities are you would
be about as much of goose as you were
then.
Don't try to make the whole world
believe that you are in downright ear
nest and wouldn't marry the best man
on top of the ground if you could, for
you know you would.
Don't say that all women are simple
tons who marry, for that is not compli-
mentary to your mother.
Don't thank goodness when you see
half a dozen urchins making it lively
for your neighboring sisters, that they
amt yours. You don't know how much
fun it is to be walloplng them with a
slipper or dosing them with paregoric.
Don't swear off from human society
and take all your stock in poodles or pet
cats. They are just as mean as men
when you refuse to crafty their caprices.
Don't think the world don't put
proper estimate upon your value. 1t
does. Mothers are constantly pointing
to you as examples for their frisky
daughters.
Don't think you ought to smile the
less because you haven't any one in par
ticular to smile for. Smile for spite, If
tor nothing else, just to make men sorry
that they let such bunch of animated
sunshine go nncaptured-
Don't think you ought to be staid and
sombre. That's mistake. You have
so few of the responsibilities of life that
you ought to be as merry as bird all
the time.
Don't think Eve made mistake when
she concluded not to live an old maid,
for neighbors were SO far apart then that
she would have been very lone.
Don't while away the dull hours by
becoming gossip monger. If you want
an occupation start a base ball club.
Don't wear long face and look as if
you dieted yourself on crab apples. 1t is
just as easy to look bright. sweet and
pleasant. One of the brightest mortals
in our acquaintance never acknowledged
allegiance to any of the lords of crea-
tion, looks as merry as June morning,
and everybody likes her.
Don't retire like recluse and grope
through life IN solitude. The one who
is confined to his or her own society
alone has generally very uninteresting
company.
Don't think there is something radi-
cally defective about the world because
it doesn't run exactly according to your
notions. There are thousands of people
who do think SO, and yet they fail to
make it any better.
Don't get worried with the little fell
lows because they romp, and yell and
raise the mischief generally. That's
way they have of letting folks know they
are about.
Don't complain at the world you live
in, but make the best of it while you
are here, trip through it lightly, merri
i ly as you can, and at the end you viii
| find that while you have had some Of
, its trials you have also escaped many
and enjoyed an average share of bless,
ings.

LIVE FOR SOMETHING.

Live for something. be not idle
Look about thee for employ;
Sit not down TO useless dreaming
Labor is the sweetest joy.
Folded hands are ever weary.
Selfish hearts are never gay;
Life for thee hath many duties
Active be. then, while you may.
Scatter blessings in thy pathway
Gentle words and cheering smiles
Better are than gold and silver.
With their grief-dispeIling wiles.
As the pleasant sunshine falleth
Ever on the grateful earth.
SO let sympathy and kindness
GLADDEN. well the darkened hearth.
Hearts that are oppressed and weary.
Drop the tear Of sympathy,
Whisper words OF hope and comfort
Give. and thy reward shall be
Joy unto thy soul returning.
From this perfect fountain head.
Freely as thou freely givest,
Shall the grateful light be shed.
