A Happy Woman.

What a spectacle more pleasing
does the world afford than a happy
woman, conten led in her sphere,
ready at all times to benefit her little
world by her exertions, and trans
forming her briars and thorns of life
into roses of Paradise by the magic
of her touch? There are those who
are thus happy because they cannot
help it; no misfortunes dampen their
sweet smiles, and they diffuse cheer
full glow around them, as they pursue
the even tenor OF their way. They
have the secret of contentment, whose
value is above the philosophers stone
for without seeking the baser ex.
change OF gold, which may buy some
sort Of pleasure, they convert every
thing they touch into Joy. What
their condition Is makes no difference
They may be rich or poor, high OF
low, admired or forsaken by the
wicked world; but the sparkling foun.
tain OF happiness bubbles up in theil
hearts and makes them radiantly
beautiful. Though they live in a log
cabin, they make il shine with lus
tire that kings and queens covet, and
they make wealth fountain OF bless
ings to the children OF poverty. Hap
py women are the highest types o.
humanity, aud we cannot say how
much we owe to them for the progress
OF the race.

A Yankton dispatch to the Cincin-
natl Commercial gives an interesting
account OF "a hunt after a member Of
the Dakota Legislature-D. ID. W..
Flich-by the sergeant-at-arms and
his assistants. He has been in the
habit OF absenting himself from his
seat, and on several occasions has
been brought back by the sergeant
at arms. As he repeated the game
on Wednesday, the sergeant at arms,
with three clerks and a messenger,
set out to bring him in. They ran
him out OF saloon and out of the
Territory into Nebraska, back into
Yankton again, and finally into his
room at his hotel, where he barred
himself ia and refused 20 come out.
The posse returned to the House
without him. The only object he
could have in remaining away from
the session must have been TO have
more time to devote to the gaming
table, as there was no measure before
the body that he desired to dodge.
If it becomes known that live legisla-
tors are among the legitimate cours-
ing game of Dakota. We may look for
an influx OF Britishers OF the Sir
Charles. Coldstream type, upon whose
appetites the duller sport OF fox hunt
ing has palled.

L Blot Out a Day.

calendar of the year, with the day of
each week by numerals. When day
is passed, draw my pen across a fig
ITe or the figures representing day.
1t is gone, aud L blot it out. SO far
as the column of numerals is con-
cerned, can do so.
But am startled by the words, 81

the chain Of my probation. 1t is as
truly a part of vital and essential be-
ing. as year or century. The day
is given me. Will it vanish at my
bidding? did not originate it, only
received it. l have no more power tC
blot it out than to bring it in.
1t was gift. How should L treat
the Oliver, il could aud would blot
it out? 1t came as a proof OF the
love of the Giver. To many that day
came not. 1t was on its way, but the
chain broke. But Divine providence
would not allow me to be loser.
Shall not honor the Giyer.
A day OF sadness, perhaps. Blot it
out for that reason? IL my sins made
the sadness OF the day, then let the
day stand-a memento OF and a re-
hinder of my folly. That day is worth
saving that brings such a voice Of re-
proof. Perhaps the day was sad IN
der divine discipline. Surely, then.
it ought TO stand, lest, blotting it out.
offence be given to Him, who affi;cts
"for our profit, that we might be par
takers of His holiness"
A day Of gladness. perhaps, the
sky bright; the air bal;ny; JOY in
friends and all worldly comfort; above
all, Joy in the Lord. and gladness in
his salvation. Shall / mar such a
beautiful picture? Shall 1 blot out
such a day? As L erase the figure
with my pen, shall 1 drop it out OF my
mind as il there had never been such
"a day? Is this the kind return?
A day That day just erased from
my calendar, how much could have
been accomplished in It'll What a no.
BILE river of holy emotions might have
rolled through my soul in that one
day,-what fervor OF love, ardor in
prayer, and workings of faith, bring
ing the light and joy OF heaven into
the soul.
There hangs my calendar. l can
not blot out much longer. The last
day OF he year is at hand. The SYM
bols OF what remains may be erased
by my driving pen; but these links OF
life, these waymarks of the path TO
eternity, these gifts OF God, these OPP
portunities Of usefulness, my graft

They shall aid in the grand result,

A lew days ago an Iowa farmer, who
was hauling sled load of corn TO
market, attempted TO cross the track
of the c., ID. 81 Q. railroad while a
passenger train was within a few
hundred yards, and coming like light
Mug. When the sled runners, which
were OF soft iron. struck the cold steel
rails, the sled refused to move and
there was deadlock. The farmer
took in the situation in moment,
then suddenly reached forward, pull
ed the pin which fastened the double
tree TO the sled, hi the horses cut,
and leaped for life himself. leaving
the sled on the track. The next mo-
ment the air was bla k with the ffag-
ments OF the vehicle and the pulver-
lied fragments Of thirty bushels OF
corn. Such presence OF mind would
indicate that the man had some sense
il this supposition were not contra
dicted, by his folly in trying to drive
across the track in front of an az :

Though the Earth be Removed.

shock came after strange stiffness.
1t caused an earthquake in his mind.

lifelong notions about the safety OF
the earth. The crocodiles ran from
the river Orinoco. bowling into the
woods, the dogs and pigs were pow
erless with fear. The whole city
seemed "the hearth OF destruction
The houses could not shelter. for they
were falling in ruins. He turned to
the trees, but they were overthrown.
His next thought was to run 10 the
mountains, but they reeled like
drunken meu. He then looked to-
ward the sea. Lol it had fled: and
the ships, which a few minutes before
were in deep water, rocked on the
bare sand. He tells US that being
then at his wits end, he looked up
and observed that heaven alone was
calm and mistaken. Many strange
things are yet 10 come upon the
world - earthquakes, overturnings,
upheavings. But amid them all, the
