A Tribute TO Women.

Capt. r. Kelso Carter recently
paid the following neat and just tri-
butte to lovely women" In an i'm
promptu address at the close OF de-
bate on Woman's Emancipation" on
board the steamer Indiana from Phil
adelphia to Liverpool:
Much has been said upon the sub
ject Of 'Woman's Emancipation but,
after all Is she not emancipated al
really? The hand that rocks the
cradle always sways the sceptre in
fact IL not in name. When the Spar
tan mothers trained their sons TO
steal, encouraged them in every sort
OF warlike pastime. and said to them,
Come not back from the battle ex-
cept you come upon your Shield the
nation became a nation OF warriors,
and the rod OF empire was held by a
military power that shook the world
beneath its tread. But when the
Christian mother OF to-day teaches
her boy to be kind. to be gentle and
courteous, to be considerable OF the
feelings Of others, restrains in him

How Yhomas BETRAYED Himself.

When Thomas drove up to deliver
the usual quart of mixture, the gen.
tleman Of the house kindly inquired:
Thomas, how many quarts OF milk
do you deliver?"
"Ninety-one, sir"
and how many cows have you?"
mine, sir"
The gentleman made some remarks
about an early spring, close OF the
Eastern war, and the state of the
roads, and then asked:
Say. Thomas, how much milk per
day do your cows average?"
"Seven quarts, sir"
"Ahl uni" said the gentleman, as
he moved of.
Thomas looked after him, scratched
his head, and all at once grew pale as
he pulled out a short pencil and be-
gan to figure on the wagon cover.

seven quarts under the COWS, aud

The rag-baby has received blow
which puts that i'll begotten offspring
OF political folly to bed in q very sick
condition. But what of the wet
nurses? What are they to do? As
to Thurman and Hendricks and like
presidency seeking demagogues, it is
immaterial what they may do. Polit-
ically, they are dead; as dead as the
galvanized mummy OF Gramercy
Park. But they are not all OF them
wet-nurses. There is a considerable
party Of them; party styled 1.-The
Democracy" Where are 1.-The De-
mocracy" to go now? What are they
to do? They have abandoned the
solid ground OF no governmental in
reference with money. They have
changed positions with their oppon-
ents. They have surrendered the
citadel OF hard money to the Republi-
cans. With their historic idiocy, they
have snapped OFF the gospel OF truth
for the rawlings Of lunacy. They can
not go back. They cannot resume
the ground of hard money, now fair
ly in possession OF the administra-
ton party, encept they abandon the
only ground on which an opposition
party can stand. They chose deliber-
ately to get on the wrong side of the
line, and have plainly no alterr alive
but to fight for the miserable rag
baby or lay down their Chi
cdgo Times.

We never have q tomorrow; it Is
simply world OF prophecies. 1t has
been said that the two great pleas
ures Of living are in having some
thing to love and something to hope
for, and the last OF these Is ever be-
fore us In the promise Of "to-mo
row." Tomorrow we may not know,
and it is well that ii Is thus ordained
TO be, for beyond the invisible veil
that conceals alike its coming Joys
and sorrows, our fancy may revel
only in what is beautiful and fair. nor
see the gloom or shadow of coming
trials and worldly Affections, that,
could we anticipate as fixed realities
that were certain to come, would mar
all our peace and enjoyment OF the
present 1t is well for us that we
cannot withdraw the veil which hides
our future.

Be a Woman.


OFT I've heard gentle mother,
As the twilight hours began,
Pleading with son on duty,
Urging him 10 be man.
But unto her blue-eyed daughter,
Though with loves words quite as ready,
Points she out the other du'--
Strive, my dear, to be lady"
What's lady? Is il something
Made of cOrsets, and silks, and air.,
Used To decorate the pariOr,
Like the fancy rings and chairs?
Is IL one that wastes on novels
Every feeling that il human?
II tits this to be a lady,
lis not this TO be woman.
Mother, then. unto your daughter
Speak of something higher tar
Than TO be mere fashions lady
4" WOmsu" is the brightest star.
If you, in your strong affection,
Urge your son To be a true man.
Urge your daughter no less strongly
To arise and be a woman.
Yes, a woman, brightest model
OF that high and perfect beauty.
Where the mind and soul and body
Blend to work out life's great duty.
Be a woman, naught is higher
On the gilded crest of fame;
On the catalogue OF virtue
There's no brighter, hOlier name.
BE woman On to duty
Raise the world from all that's low.
Place high in the social heaven
Virtues fair and radiant bow.
Lend thy influence to each effort
That shall raise our nature human
Be not fashions giddy lady
Be brave, whO!e-souled, true woman.

symptoms of a Diseased Liver.

Symptoms of a Diseased Liver.
DAN in the right side, under the
edge of the ribs, increases on pres
sure; sometimes the pain is in the left
side; the patient is rarely able to lie
on the left side; sometimes the pain is
felt under the shoulder blade, and it
frequently extends to the top of the
shoulder, and is sometimes mistaken
for rheumatism in the arm. The
stomach is affected with loss of appe
tite and sickness; the bowels in gen.
eral are costive, sometimes alternative
with lax; the head is troubled with
pain, accompanied with dull, heavy
sensation in the back part. There is
generally a considerable loss of men,
DRY. accompanied with a painful SEN
sation of having left undone some.
thing which ought to have been done.
A slight, dry cough is sometimes an
attendant. The patient complains of
WEAKNESS and debility; he is easily
startled, his feet are cold or burning,
and he complains of a prickly sensa-
ton of the skin; his spirits are low;
and although he is satisfied that exer-
else would be beneficial to him, yet
he can scarcely summon up fortitude
enough to try it. In fact, he distrusts
every remedy. Several of the above
symptoms attend the disease, but cases
have occurred where few of them ex-
listed, yet examination of the BODY,
after death, has shown the LIVER to
have been extensively deranged.

HOME CONVERSATION.


Among the home amusements the
best is the good old habit OF CONVEX
sation, the talking over the events of
the day in bright and quick play OF
wit and fancy, the story which brings
the laugh, and the speaking the good
and kind and true things, which all
have in their hearts. 1t is not so
much by dwelling upon what men,
bers OF the family have in common,
as bringing each to the other some
thing interesting and amusing, that
life is cheerful and joyous. Each one
must do his part to make converse
ton genial and happy. We are too
ready TO converse with newspapers
and books. hotel or club-room. and to
forget that home is cnything more
than a place to eat and sleep in. The
revival OF conversation, the entertain
ment OF one another, as a room full
Of people will entertain themselves,
is one secret of a happy home.
Wherever it is wanting, disease has
struck into the root OF the tree: there
is want which is felt with increas-
ing force as time goes on. CONVEX
sation in many cases is just what pre-
vents many people from relapsing
into utter selfishness at their firesides.
This conversation should not simply
occupy husband and wife and other
older members Of the family, but ex-
tend itself to the children. Parents
should be careful to talk with them,
to enter into their life, to share their
trifes, to assist in their studies, to
meet them in the thoughts and feel
ings OF their childhood. 1t is a great
step In education, when round the
evening lamp are gathered the differ
ent members OF large family, shar-
ing their occupation with one anoth-
er, the older assisting the younger,
each one contributing to the enter
tainment of the other, and all feeling
that the evening has passed only too
soon away. This is the truest and
best amusement. 1t is the heart ed
ucation OF great and noble characters.
There is the freedom, the breath, the
joyousness of natural life. The time
spent thus by parents, in the higher
entertainment Of their children. bears
harvest or eternal blessings, and
these long evenings furnish just the
time.
