The above advertisement caught my

have a fashion of cleaning the news. 1
read it again and again, growing more
and more fascinated Armand Trevor.
What beautiful name A name which
to this day 1 cannot hear spoken with
out peculiar sensations in the region of
my heart. determined to write an
answer to this young man with the small
fortune. Not that intended to reveal
my real name. Judith Lubby had a
commonplace sound, and might shock
his sensitiveness. L must choose some-

where there was never anything to in
terest or amuse anybody.
1 knew that if fate willed it that this
Armand Trevor and 1 should meet, he
could find no fault with my present APP
pearance. Why, Hiram Bung had told
me on an average once a week that
was the prettiest girl in Stapleton. Not
that set much value on Hiram's opin-
ion, for man who owned bravely to the
name of Bung could not have an opin-
ion worth thought. Yet in spite of the
contempt l had for Hiram's verdict it
was rather pleasant to be told that was
pretty. After mature deliberation of
about an hour, / decided on the non de
plume of " Pauline Irving" which in
my estimation equaled in beauty the
name of Armand Trevor.
My friend, Annie Towers, lived in
Barcourt, and to her 1 decided to send
my letter, asking her to post it there. I
did not dare post it in Stapleton, for it
was such small place that my scheme
would have been discovered directly. 1
wished, also, to keep my earthly abode

him to search for me in Barcourt if he
wished. There was singular pleasure
to me in imagining him searching day

The North of Holland.

IN THE north of Holland the farms
i are not over foot above the level of
the sea, and some are lower. The land
is loose, spongy muck, and is very rich.
1t is sub-divided into small parcels by
canals. There are thousands of wind
mills which are used to pump water all
the time. The dwellings are as neat as
they possibly can be. They are built in
small villages, clustered closely togeth-
er. The roads are all paved, and not a
particle of dust is ever seen. They meas
ure distance by the hour, saying that
from place to place is ten hours walk,
four hours by boat, or two hours by rail.
The houses are built as nicely as any in
our cities, about fifty feet square, with
about eight feet between the joists upon
the first floor all above is used for stor-
ing hay. On the other side are the sta
bles for the cattle, and they are models of
neatness. The floors are all paved with
stones of brick. In these stables where
the cattle are, they make butter, cheese,
do the washing, ironing and baking and
tuo Senelh nOuseuolu WoIk. III is hOt
an uncommon thing to see hundreds of
cheeses there; they weigh about four
pounds each. The bedding is always
clean, and lasts a good while. When the
cattle are put into the stable they are
put there for the season, and tied with
rope to the corner of the stall. The air
is always chilly, and the cows are
blanketed in the summer, and of course
are warm in their stalls in winter, for
fires are quite generally kept burning in
two stoves throughout the coldest of the
season. The calves do not need to be
blanketed in summer because nature has
provided very thick coating of hair for
them, and in winter they are shed.

"Then you shall be my wife, Judith,

My dreams of the elegant Armand
were gone, andi in their stead reigned the
reality of my engagement to Hiram
Bung. But there was so much romance
connected with it, that 1 was almost
satisfied with the way matters had ter
minated. 1t was nearly dark when we
at last reached Annie's home, for there
had been so much to talk about that we
had fingered under the old apple tree in
the lane until the dusk of evening came
upon the earth.
We found Harry Chesley with Annie,
and both were prepared to laugh at us
heartily. OF course they were astonish-
ed at the news of our engagement, but
congratulated us, nevertheless, very
warmly.
True to his word, Hiram began busi-
ness in Barcourt, and, long before 1
became Mrs. Bung, 1 learned to love
him very dearly,-which he certainly
deserved.

A Beautiful Illustration.

Gentlemen" said Mr.. Lincoln one
day during wartime, to several western
men who called upon him to criticise
the Administration, suppose all the
the property you were worth was in
gold, and you had put it in the hands of
Blondin to carry across the Niagara
Falls on tight rope, would you shake
the rope while he was passing over it,
or keep shouting to him, Blondin,
stoop little more Go little faster!'
No, am sure you would not. You
would hold your breath as well as your
tongue, and keep your hands of until
he was safely over. Now the government
is in the same situation, and is carrying
across stormy ocean an immense
weight; untold treasures are in its
hands. 1t is doing the best it can !;
don't badger it; keep silence and it will
get you safely over"

Select Poetry.
ALWAYS LOOK ON THE SUNNY SIDE.

Always look on the sunny side,
And though life checkered be,
A llghtsome heart bids care depart,
And time fly pleasantly.
Why sit and mourn DER fnncied ills,
When danger is not near2
Care Is a self-consuming thing,
That hardest nerves can wear.
Always look on the sunny side,
And though you do not find
All things according to your wish,
Be not disturbed in mind.
The greatest evils that can come
Are lighter far to bear
When met by fortitude and strength,
Instead of doubt and fear.
Always look on the sunny side
There's health in harmless jest,
And much to soothe our worldly cares
In hoping for the best.
The gloomy path is far too dark
For happy feet to tread,
And tells of pain and solitude,
OF friends estranged and dead.
Always look on the sunny side,
And never yield to doubt,
The ways of Providence are wise,
And faith will bear you out,
If you but make this maxim yours,
And in its strength abide,
Believing all is for the best;
Look on the sunny side

A Fable.

1t was a calm, still night. soft
air played caressingly with the
trssses of a lovely girl, and the moon
shed its ray over the radiant brow
of her lover. Her small brother
meanwhile, just home for the holt
days, was accidentally wandering in
quest OF bat in the neighborhood,
when he heard the voices of his
sister and her betrothed. Prompted
by the natural curiosity of youth he
fingered to listen. After few mar
ticulate murmurs he became con.
scions of the sound of OSCILLATION,
and enjoyed his position exceeding
'ly. Later in the evening he met the
pair at tea.
~ heard you kiss Fred" he alb
ruptly remarked to his sister.
What do you mean, you rude
boy?' cried the sweet girl, turning
scarlet.
.'Oh, it's no ase denying ite' re-
piled her brother. "Tou can't gam
mon me. l know the sound, you
know; it was just like COW pulling
her hoof out of a mud.hole."
This is an instance of a compari-
son which was Odious.

A CarsL aisa of Cats.

Among the vast amount of live
stock at present passing over the
Erie, cattle and swine constitute the
principal lading. On Thursday of
last week, in an eastward bound
freight train which stood for short
time in Middletown, there was a
car .load of cats. They were shipped,
it is said, from the Pacific slope, and
were consigned 20 a party in New
York, who is dealer in skins. The
animals, it is supposed, will be
slaughtered on reaching their desti
nation, and their skins used for
different purposes. During the short
stay of the train here the "mousers,"
who were well fed during the trip,
gave brief concert, aud in a short
time succeeded in obtaining quite a
large audience. 1t was said by one
present that it was the "Thomas"
orchestra. The train did not re-
main long, greatly to the relief
of the slumbering residents in the
vicinity of the depot.-Poughkeepsic

There was quite a crowd congre-

A COlored Brothers Prayer.

The Rev. MrJasper, of Richmond,
Va, who pins his faith on "the sun

gin to open last Sunday evenings
service with prayer, and he did so,
as follows: SO Lord, we's mighty
abused people; we's had a hard
time in slavery; we's been all
broken to pieces; we's bow-legged,
knock kneed, bandy-shanked, cross
