There is no power of love SO hard to
get and keep as a kind voice A kind
hand is deaf and dumb. 1t may be rough
in flesh and blood, yet do the work of a
soft heart, and do it with soft touch. But
there is no ore thing that love SO much
needs as a sweet voice TO tell what it
means and feels; and it is hard 10 get and
keep it in the right tone.
One must start in youth, and be on the
watch night and day, at work and play,
10 get and keep voice that shall speak
at all times the thoughts Of a kind heart.
But this is the time when sharp voice
is most apt to be got. You often hear
boys and girls say words at play with a
quick, sharp tone, as if it were the snap
of a whip. When one ol them acts veyed
you will hear A voice that sounds as if it
were made up Of snarl, a whine and a
bark. Such voice often speaks worse
than the heart feels. 1t shows more i'll
will in the tone than in the words. 1t is
often in youth that one gets voice or a
tone that is sharp, and sticks to him
through life, and stirs up il-will and grief,
and tails like a drop of gall on the sweet
joys at home. Such as these get sharp
home voice for use, and keep their best
voice for those they meet elsewhere, Just
as they would save their best cakes and
pies for guests, and all their sour food for
their own board. | would say TO all boys
and girls: "Use your guest voice at
home, Watch it day by day, as pearl
of great price, for it will be. worth more
to YOU in days to come than the best pearl
hid in the sea. A kind voice is Joy like
a lark's song to hearth and home. 1t is
to the heart what light is to the eye. 1t
is a light that sings as well as shines.
Train it to sweet tones now, and it will
keep in tune through life"

Causes of Sickness.

Among the many causes Of sickness,
an exchange mentions the following:
Eating too much and too fast; swallow
ing imperfectly masticated food; by TAX
ing too much fluid at meals; drinking
poisonous whiskey and other intoxicating
drinks; keeping late hours at night, and
sleeping too late in the morning; wearing
clothing too tight, so as 10 relax the circu-
lation; wearing thin shoes; neglecting to
take sufficient exercise TO keep the hands
and feet warm; neglecting to wash the
body sufficiently to keep the pores OPEN
exchanging the warm clothes worn in a
warm room during the day for costumes
and exposure so incident to evening par
ties; starving the stomach to CRAFTY a
vain and foolish passion for dress; keep
ing up constant excitement; fretting the
mind with borrowed troubles swallowing
quack nostrums for every imaginary i'll
taking meals at irregular intervals.

SOMETHING OF A ROMANCE.
a Remarkable Story Told by q Du-
buqus Man After Forty Years.
(Dubuuue TnnesJ

| NDupaNuo AkAiSev
A wealthy couple lived together in per-
feet peace for Il years. When sitting In
the parlor one evening not long ago, the
husband surprised his wife by saying,
"I am going to tell you secret you have
never heard befo. 3" There was brief
pause as the lady and near relative who
chanced to be present awaited the disclos-
ure. and the husband continued, ayes
you will be surprised to hear that had
another wife before | married you" Star
tied and aghast the wife clasped her hands
in suspense and asked; "Am |, then not
your lawful wife" "You are my loved
and lawful wife" was the prompt reply;
"mv first wife died four years before
came to Dubuque and met YOU"
Then he related how he had married his
first wife and been summoned to his home
to find her dead in child birth. Then he
went west and settled in Dubuque, where
the second romance of his life came about
Six years ago, he received letter from
the woman who had nursed his first wife.
She wrote that she was upon her sick bed,
and could not rest until she had confessed
her share in base crime.
The wife had died, but the son had sur
vived, and through large bribe proffered,
by the dead woman's father, the nurses
lips had been sealed and the husband told
that the child had died with its mother.
This man, the father-in-law, was wealthy,
but his daughters death left him without
an heir and he took this means OF sup
plying what fate had denied With her
last breath the nurse informed her employ
er that she had divulged the truth to the
gentleman in Dubuque, and, Immediately
upon her death, the father-in law went
west and offered large bribe. This was
refused, but the secret was kept.
The son was millionaire in the city of
P, and his father was anxious to see him.
The second wife was then told the truth
for the first time and asked to go East and
pay the first wife's son visit. When the
story was told, the wife announced in low
tones: "Since you kept it from me SO
long would rather YOU had never repeat
ed it." The excitement caused by the re-
cital proved fatal. In two days the lady
was dead

GRAINS OF GOLD
Defer not charities till death.

Defer not CharltleS TILL death.
Let no jest intrude upon good manners
The best fire does not flare up the soon

Rely not on opinions, but cling to you
own conscience.
The wild oats of youth change into tn,

We hand folks over to Gods mercy bu

Kindness is the golden chain by which
society is bound together.
Choose those companions who admin

times makes very grim commands.
Ambition thinks no face so beautiful as
that which looks from under crown.
Poverty is in the want of much, but
avarice demands everything it has not.
The tale OF Divine pity was never vet
believed from lips that were not felt to be
moved by human pity.
Friendship begins with liking or graft
tude-roots that can be pulled up. The
mother love begins deeper down.
Be on good terms with your own soul,
and treat your body with all the respect
and reverance that are due the temple of
the soul
Better wrong will than a wavering /;
better steadfast enemy than an uncer-
tain friend; better false belief than no
belief at all.
Hard speech between those who have
loved is hideous in the memory, like the
sight of greatness and beauty sunk into
vice and rags.
For the chief source of peace we all
look hisher-far above the tree-tops, the
mountains and the bright, sailing clouds
far above earth, even to Heaven.
Men spend their lives in heaping up
colossal piles of treasure, which stand at
the end like the pyramids in the deserts
sands, holding only the dust OF kings.
Never witness tear with apathy or in
difference. Words, looks, ac ctions, may be
artificial; but tear is unequivocal; it
comes direct from the heart, and speaks
at once the language Of truth, nature and
sincerity.
Some lives, like flowers, are fair but
not fragrant We love to look at them,
but do not care 10 hold them. Others,
then, are sweet, Gladdening, but with less
of outward perfection, yet we would have
them near us always
The truly beautiful and good are those
who pursue the paths of virtue and jus.
tce for the mere love Of those attributes,
and not because of merit that attaches to
such a life, or expecting TO reap favors
and rewards therefrom.
Men plant the grain and timber of eve
ry-day life with their strong hands, which
God made for that purpose. Women fill
in the holows and crevces and swelling
banks with flowers, ferns and delicate
shade trees, which make tie vigorous
work of the strong hands beautiful.

A word to the girls who think they
have finished their education. 1t is
very common mistake 10 consider the
word commencement" as applied to the
closing exercises of high schools and
colleges, a misnomer because it is the end
of school life. Although it may be the
end Of school education, it is but the be-
ginning of practical lite, for which these
years of study have only been a prepara-
ton. But too many when their school
life is ended, consider the education as
finished their books are laid aside, their
accomplishments neglected and sinking
into mental apathy, they either engage in
a round Of unmeaning social observanees,
or perhaps, deprived of congenial society
and not knowing how to use the resources
at their command, they soon begin to
fancy themselves unappreciated and be-
come so unutterly discontented that they
are ready to resort to desperate measures
for change which they fancy may bring
relief. Judging from such cases many
have derided female education as unproft-
able and advised return to the oden
time, when women were taught nothing
but household duties.
These are, however, serious mistakes,
the education has only just begun. "The
veal or woe of generation to come" will
soon be in your hands; and do you, fresh
from the school'room, consider Yourselves
prepared to meet the responsibility? Is
your domestic education complete? Are
you already accountant If deficient in
either, supply the want at once. 1t is
said truthfuly that ''much dissipation and
crime have their beginning in ill-cooked
food and badly kept homes;" and it is a
duty not only to make our persons at
tractive, but also our homes And how
many poor widows and orphans have been
robbed of their all through ignorance of
accounts. Then ifyou have a taste for
drawing, music, elocution, the languages
or mathematics, cultivate it as a recrea-
ton. Read only good books, and be not
forgetful of the wants of those around
you. If you become wives and mothers
you will need all the practical knowledge
of every kind you can attain; if you re-
main single you will perhaps be enabled
"to contribute your mite to the sum of hu-
man knowledge" And If your amateur
efforts in any direction give pleasure to
your friends, do not at once consider your
self an adept in that particular science or
art, but let their praise be an incentive to
renewed exertion. Finally, LET ''whatever
thy hand findeth to do'' be done with all
thy might, and your lives will be too full
to admit discomfort or enuui as mental
guests.

Color Blindness in Railroad Men.
IN. Y. Hcrald,)

Some interesting and very important
observations have been made in Europe
upon government authority to determine
the extent Of color blindness in railroad
employees, and the result was TO show
that if many railroad accidents were not
actually traceable to this cause at least
the prevalence of the defect was such
that it would be scarcely less than mirac-
ulous if accidents should be continuously
avoided.
Now similar investigation has been
made as to the extent Of this defect in the
employees of a single railroad company
in this country, with the result of show
ing that in IL per cent. of the whole num-
Der the sense of vision is deficient in this
particular Not all are affected alike.
Some cannot tell colors at all; others,
while able to distinguish the broader lines
of color are incapable Of discriminating
shades and related hues. Now, if it
should happen that any one of these men
incapable Of distinguishing color should
be placed at a point where lives of the
passengers In a train depended upon the
sudden arrest Of the train, and the signal
to stop it was actually displayed, that en-
ployee would in all probability keep on,
wreck the train and kill or MAIN half the
passengers. For the danger signal is the
display of one color,as distinguished from
another color, which is the safety signal,
and to the eyes of the man who is color
blind these different colors would be alike.
That many terrible railroad accident
has been brought about solely by this
peculiar condition of mems eyes is not
now doubted by men who have investiga-
ted the subject, and it is high time that
the topic was taken up in systematic
way by railroad companies in all parts os
the country.

The Man at Home.

Married ladies will please skip the fol.
lowing paragraph, which we find in For.
neys progress.
Mr.. Forney is an old man and ought to
know better than to place such RESPONSE
bilities upon the female heads of tho
household as are laid down: "What men
expect to find in their homes is comfort.
After carrying a burden of responsibility
on their shoulders all day they look for
ward with the keenest pleasure to the
hours when they can settle down in quiet
ease at their own fireside. They want
their dinners good, and without the bitter,
sauce Of knowing Gf such has been the
case,) that there has been a domestic broil
over it. They want TO feel and see, rath-
er than hear Of it, that there has been
deal of consideration for them; that their
slippers are in the right place, papers un-
disturbed, shirts, collars and cuffs starched
and shining, buttons on, stockings darned;
in short, they want their home life to be
in joyous contrast with the life across the
threshold
And all these little things are matters
of such serious import that without them
the haven of home is transformed into an
abode Of discord. know the argument
on the other side, about grumbling hus-
bands expecting to scowl the careworn
wives into smiling angels. We are not
thinking of such men; their lives are
what they make them, as are all our lives
to certain extent. But experience all
the world over proves that good men are
dependent on good homes, good dinners
and good women for their happiness

Trifes.

Some one has said that. ut is hard
telling what triAe means" Everything
in nature seems to be closely connected
with everything else. An undue prepon-
derance of one force sets in motion all
other forces. The eddying of a few parti-
cles Of air may give rise to tornado.
r A few drops of oil slowly leaking from
a cask may seem Of little account; but in
due time the vessel will be empty. A
small pin, bolt or screw out Of place may
stop powerful engine. A particle OF
dust may render chronometer useless
as time-keeper. The prick of pin in a
balloon may destroy it. Another writer
has put the thought in still sstronger
light: "There is no such thing as trhe :"
Any person who has lived many years
and been engaged in the transactions OF
daily life, will certainly appreciate this
quotation. A useless expense of few
cents daily to laboring man will amount
to no small sum in a series Of years, while
judicious expenditure in the same way
will be exhibited in few years in the
general appearance of thrift around such
a man. To know how to do things in the
best possible manner involves a knowl.
edge of a thousand little things to insure
Success.

Effects of Flowers on Health.

"Contrary to popular belief" says a
writer in Cassells Magazine, ait has been
recently found by an Italian professor
that fine vegetable perfumes exercise a
positively beneficial influence on the at
n,osphere by converting the oxygen of
the air into that powerful oxidizing and
therefore purifying agent ozone. The es-
sences found by him to produce the most
ozone are precisely those which usage
has selected as the most invigorating,
such as cherry, laural, cloves, lavender,
mint, juniper, lemon, fennel and berga-
mot, several Of which are ingredients in
the refreshing eau de cologne. Anise,
nutmeg thyme, narcissus and hyacinth
flowers, mignonette, heliotrope and lilies
of the valley also develop ozone: in fact,
all flowers possessing perfume appear to
do SO, whereas those having none do not.
This interesting intelligence will be graft
fying to all lovers of flowers, and the cul-
tiyation of these lovely disinfectants Of
nature should be promoted in all marshy
o foul places"
