Twas Saturday light, teacher sat
Alone, her task pursuing:
She averaged this and she averaged that,

She reckOned percentage so many bows.
And so many girls all counted,
And marked all the tardy and absentees.
And to what all the absence amounted

Over many columns ana pages:

And averaged all their ages.

And cases of tlagellatOn:
And prepared a list of graduates
For the country examination.
Her weary head sank low on her book,
And her weary heart still lower:
For some of her pupils had little BRAIN
And she could not furnish more.

And her spirit went TO Haydes,
And they met her there with question fair.

FIRST CLASS PIANOS CHEAP.--We see
from their illustrated and descriptive

Co., of New York. are selling their pi-

The Mendelssohn piano has world wide
reputation for its power and rare beauty
of tone. Their factory is one of the
largest and most complete in the world.
The company sell pianos direct to the
people without the Intervention of agents
Or dealers, thereby saving purchasers

Grand, Square and Upright pianos. and
are among the very best instruments
offered to the public, though the prices
charged are not one third what other
manufacturers charge for no better in

like some concerns who don't make a
piano at all but pick up Old rattle boxes
and advertise them far and near as

A MoRTEAGE.-In the whole range Cf
sacred and prolane literature, perhaps
there is nothing recorded which has such
staying properties as good healthy mort
gage. A mortgage can be depended up
on to stick closer than n brother. 1t has
mission to perform which never let's up.
Day after day it Ia right there, nor does
the slightest tendency to slumber impair
its vigor in the night. Night and day,
on the Sabbath, and at holiday times,
without moments time for rest or re-
creation, the biting offspring OF its e&is-
tence, interest, goes on. The seasons
may change, days run into weeks, weeks
into months be swallowed up into the
gray man of advancing years, but the
mortgage stands upin sIeepess vigilance, F.,
with the interest, perennial stream,
increasingly running on. Like n huge
nightmare eating out the sleep of some
restless slumberer, the unpaid mortgage
rears up its gaunt front in perpetual tor
ment to The miserable wight who is held
within its miserable clutch. 1t holds the
poor victim with the relentless grasp of Il
giant; not ore hour of recreation, not a
moments evasion Of its hidcous presence.
A genial savage Of modifying aspect
while the interest is paid; very devil of
hopeless destruction when the payment
fails.

AND now General Crooe, one Of the
bravsst and most success ful Indian fight
ers, adds his testimony that Indian wars
are caused by swindling. Millions upon
millions are expended, not TO speak Of the
losses of life accompanied by terrible at
rocities, because the men who stand be-
tween the Government and the Indians
arc cold blooded thieves and swindlers
The appropriations are ample, and there
is room enough on the continent, but the
Indians are systematically cheated to the
point of starvation and driven to take up
arms. This works all the better for the
swindlng agents and contractors. In
dian wars only increase their profits.

LIFE OUT OF DooRs. An English
scientific paper remarks as n curious
physiological fact that although open air
lille is 80 favorable to health, yet it Ia
the apparent effect Of -tuntug growth in
earley youth While the children Of we'll
to do parents, carefully housed and tend
ed, are taller for their age than children
of the poor they are not 50 strong in after
years. "The aborers children, tor in
stance, who play in the lonely country
ronds and fields all day, whose parents
lock their cottage doors when leaving
for work in the morning, so that their
of, ,prmg shall not gain entrance and do
mischief, are almost invariably short
for their age. The children Of working
farmers exhibit the same peculiarly.
After sixteen or eighteen, after years of
hesitation as it were. The lads shoot up,
and become great hulking, broad fellows,
possessed of immense strength. Hence it
would seem thatin door life forces growth
at the wrong period. and so Injuries"
BY way of comment on this, the Scien-
tdc american says: 1.-The inference is
plausible, but is wide Of the mark. The
childran of the we'll to do are tall not be-
cause they are will fed and saved from
severe exposure. The children OF the
poor are stunted not by too much sun and
AR, but because they nre i'll fed Give the
first class plenty or outdoor play, with
their proper diet, and they will be strong
rs well as tall; give the laborors' children
the food suitable to their years, and no
amount of sun and wind will stunt
them. On the contrary they will not
have to wait till age brings capacity to
turn strong food to bono and muscle,
and time to overcome the evil effects
of the hard times in early life, but will
grow from the llrst steadily and sturdily.'

JosE LAwYER.-A certain breadth of
statement is generally admissible when
attorneys are addressing Court. and
where the lawyer sees things through
magnifying drops OF grief the habit of
using the editorial "wer is often uncon-
sciously exaggerated. A short time ago
an attorney remarkable for his verbosity,
was arguing a point in divorce case
before Judge 9eldsn. The defendent

had spoken very disparagingly Of his wife, ,
and our disciple of Blackstone, the wife's
attorney, was dissecting the testimony. -
After trying to prove that every state

to strangle the truth he said: "Your

he seemed to realize what he had said and

BISMARCK's GIDDY YOUTH.

1t was was while Bismarck WAS still
young clerk in the Berlin department
or Justice" that the present sovereign,
then Prince William of Prussia, first saw
the man who was one day to make him
Emperor of Germany. 1t happened that
fellow clerk, also above six feet in
high, was presented along with him; and
the Prince looking with an appreciative
smile at .wo young giants remarked
pleasantly: ~ see, gentlemen, that Jus:
tice chooses her servants by the standard
Of the guard" The boldness of the
Counts demeanor, and his naughty in
Intolerance of anything approaching
slight, speedily made him conspicuous in
the service. Ore may still hear some
elderly Prussian relate admiringly how,
when a superior to whom Bismarck was
reporting, went to the window drummed
on the glass with his fingers, the latter
retorting by walking to the other window
and strcking up still louder tune on it;
or how when curlly asked by the same
msgnate, after being kept waiting for an
hour, what he wanted Bismarck replied,
II came TO ask for leave, but now l re-
quest my dismissal"
On one occasion the cool etfrontry of
witness whose statement Bismarck was
taking down, provoked him to start up
and exclaim, "Ifyou can't behave pro
perly, III kick you out OF the room. "
Turning man out Of the room is my
affair."" nterposed the chief o the depart

the witRess, "if you don't behave pro-
perly, III make my chief kiel, you out"
This characteristic disregardlsss otcon-
sequences was even more strlkilgly ex
