A LITTLE WHILE.

What is this that He saith?
S"Is 1t but little while
And trouble and pain and death
Shall vanish before his smile
"Alittle while,'' and the load
. Shall drop at the pilgrims feet,
Where the steep and thorny road
Doth merge in the golden street.
But what is this that He saith?
"a little while," and the day
OF the servant that laboreth
Shall be done forever and aye.
0 the truth that is yet untold!
o the suffering manifold,
And the SORROWS that have no tongue
Othe helpless hands held out,
And the wayward feet that stray
In the desolate paths of doubt
And the sinners downward way!
For silence soon will fall
On the lips that burn for speech,
And the needy and poor that call
Will forever be out of reach.
For the work that ye must do
Before the coming of death .lg5
There remaineth, o faithful few,
But little WHILE" He saith.

and it is not surprising that thew are 10

and it is not surprising that they are 10,
The result is that when German physi:-
clan or surgeon comes to treat a particu-
lar ease he is apt to follow the teachings
OF his master to the letter. This will not
DO, for there can hardly be found two
cases which require precisely the same
treatment. For this reason the Ameri-
can, who is naturally ingenious, when he
comes toa case will set to thinking on
his own hook, and will devise some way
to get successfully through with it..
Take, for instance, the case of man
who has leg that requires to be ampu-
tated.av The books tell exactly how to do
it. But suppose the man has in addition
some serious constitutional disease. Then
the circumstances are altered entirely,
aud what he can get from the books may
not help him out oft. So, you see the
surgeon must always rely mainly upon
his own knowledge and skill"

"My first wife," said MI. Marigoh,
running his anxious eyes over the dress
makers bill which his second matromo-
nial venture had just handed him, s.used
to make one calico dress last longer than
you wear a silk one.; "Yes,n replied
Mrs. Marigold, "and she made one hus-

can too" And as she bent her gentle
glance upon his countenance, he felt all
the blood in his back turn into hailstones.

A Firsi-CIass Mlser.

A remarkable old miser has just died
in Dublin, and curiosity Is rife regard
ing his property, which is said TO be
worth five hundred thousand dollars.
The old man, whose name Is Law, was
jeweler for many years, but for the last
fifteen or twenty years has lived an alb
solutely solitary life in large house in
Lower Dominick street.
Since his death large number of per-
sons have come forward as relatives,
and nodoubt there are many In America
who are related TO this remarkable man,
and might like to send their claims at
once.
His house when searched was found
to contain some some old and curious
books, few jars of whiskey, many
wine bottles, some empty a great guam
tity of tea leaves, which be appears to
havs carefully preserved in basins after
he had extracted all the essence from
them.
In the room where he slept, and
where he probably contracted the bron-
chitis that caused his death, it was won
derful how human being could exist.
What served for bed stood in one cor
ner, and with the exception of a very
narrow passage round about it, the hoor
was covered with a mass of indescriba-
bic rutpish which in some places reach
ed height of three or four feet.

A Candid Opinion,

A Detroit lawyer, famous for his wise,
and candid opinion, was the other day
visited by young attorney, who ex-
claimed:
" / was admitted to the bar two years
ago, and / think 1 know something
about law, yet the minute arise to ad-
dress jury 1 forgot all my points and
can say nothing. Now, want to ask
you this doesn't show lack of conf
denc in myself, and how can overcome
it?"
The wise attorney shut his eyes and
studied the case moment before an
swering.
"My young friend, if it is lack of
confidence in yourself it will some day
vanish, but it if is lack Of brains you
had better sell out your office effects and
buy a. pick-ax and a long handed
shovel"
But how am 10 determine 7" anx-
iously asked the young man.
"I'd buy the pick-ax anyhow and run
my chances !" whispered the aged ad-
wiser, as he moved over to the peg for
his overcoat.

The Way 10 Get It.

There was quite crowd congregated
in Snyder's saloon the other day, telling
stories, smoking strong pipes, and keep
ing as close to the stove as possible.
Presently stranger walked in and
ate sandwich, after which he address
ed the men as follows:

Yes" they replied unanimously.

They responded together in the affir-
native.
Would you work faithfully if you
got a chance?''
'' OF course, we would"
"Then you all want work, work, and
nothing but work ?"
" We do"
swell, there's only one way to get
it,"
How's that?"
"Why, go out and look for it."
Then he skipped out, amid groans of
chagrin and disappointment.

The Original Brother Jonathan. +"

Governor Jonathan Trumbull, of Con-
necticut, was the original Brother
Jonathan" he was always so addressed
by General Washington, and finally the
whole Yankee nation, and especially
New England, become soubriquetted,
characterized and identified in the per-
son of 6 Brother Jonathan" TrumbulI,
plain unassuming, honest, common
sense man, who resided in Lebanon.
When in full dress, Brother Jonathan
Trumbell looked very much as he is
now representedin in what is generally sup
posed to be caricature. He was of tall,
gaunt form and wore swalIow-tail
homespun coat, manufactured in his
family, out of wool raised on his own
farm and colored with maple bark pro-
cured from his own woodpile, the dye
being set with iron filings obtained
from the blacksmith shop in the neigh
borhood. His genteel tight-fitting
trousers, reaching six inches short of
his ankles were made of striped Iinsey
woolsey, prepared and spun in his own
family.
