And shun hell Of vice and woe;
But what is heaven to you and me-
But peace, and love, and harmony,
Where all the elements OF strife
Ale tuned to harmony OF life?
Heaven in the family Is where
No jarring notes Of discord are,
And II heaven We would win,
There is the place we should begin,
And make with all our art and care
a homemade heaven and keep 1t there,
For we can make one il we try,
Better by far than we can buy;
And let us aid whereer we can
To make heaven for every man,
BY kindly helping those in need
And well be happier for the deed.
But do we need to study DER
Pages Of theologic lore,
To tell us that in wee and CRIME
We're going hellward all the time?
Does not our reason clearly tell
How we can shun drunkard's hell?
There is one way, and one alone,
We need no priest to make it known.
The blood OF Christ, our preachers say,
Viii wash our quilts and sins away,
However vile our lives have been,
And make all pure and clean within.
Perhaps they honestly receive 1t,
AS honestly disbeleve it.
Each crime will make moral stain
TO last while memory shall remain,
Through an eternity OF time,
Unless we can forget the crime.
The preacher says prepare to die
Prepare to live, would reply,
And let us live in such way
IS to grow better every day,
And IL we make hell below,
That hell will follow where we go;
But il We make heaven here
A future hell we need not fear.

gether to enjoy the elegant fcpastprcparcd
by the ladies', and judging from the man
ner in which twas disposed of there could
be no doubt in the ladies' minds thattheir
effort in the culinary art was success,
and fully appreciated. The day was spent
in the variety OF ways common on such oc-
casions. Late in the afternoon the party
visited HOrnbrook's Park, the Eden OF
Wheeling Valley, to show the guests from
abroad what individual enterprise cap

publicly expressing our heartfelt thanks
10 Mr.. Thos. lIornbrook, who has spared
neither labor nor expense in laying out
this garden SO tastefuily, and adorning it
with everything that Il beautiful in ma

prominade from the cool spring OF water
Tor the Thirsty soulp oven,to the summit
OF the mound, where the "horses are TO be
hitchedr and the "courting done" The
murmuring brooks, the waving trees, the
singing birds, the fragrant flowers, and the
kind words and wholesome advice, falling
from the lips Of the feeble old man, exert
a purifying and enDobling influence on all
those who visit this earthly paradise. The
party next repaired 10 Miss Fey's ice
cream parlor, where the most delicious
cream is always served, and kind attention
given. Exquisite music was furnished by
ladies' Of the party, and an hour was thus
very pleasantly spent.

We would ask permission 10 call the at

tricts, to few facts about the Work House

suppose was abandoned by the Board of
Commissioned L.ast summer the Board
levied for five hundred dollars 10 tlcfrayt the
expenses of the Committee on Finance in
procuring plans for Work House. One
hundred and fifty dollars Of this sum were
expended in visiting other cities, leaving
three hundred aud fifty for procuring a

Treasury. At the June meeting this year
the Board levied for xix Thousand dollars
for commencing work on the building, !. e

cellar, and this, too, before any plan Of
building had ever been plbaiHcd to the
Board. l.(t}sSyLS1
The opposition TO this project aroused
by the papers and numbers OF citizens,
made the Board pause, and at two meetings
OF the Board held this summer q motion 10
rescind the resolution making this appro-

ayowed reason that tie whole project was
