powder that had cost the concern about
two cents and a fraction. Emotion and
business don't Jingle.

lrlshmen Abroad.

l hear, says a London correspondent,
that among Shere Ali's favorite cap
tains is certain Hessian, a Khyber
Khan, commanding the cavalry of the
military district of Candahar. The
Murat of Afghanistan ehivalry was for
merly a British soldier. His name in
the service was O'DonneII. He served
many years in the S7th Fusiliers, or
Faugh-a-Ballaghs," as DR.. thinner
would call them. This man was color
and pay-sergeant, but lost the rank, and
was subsequently appointed to the grade
Of company sergeant, but lost that also.
Soon after that he left the regiment
how have not been clearly informed.
At that time, now some years ago,
O'DOnnell, who halls from Nenagh, was
a man of forty. noted for his reckless
daring and his herculean strength. He
was the only European in India who
vanquished every native wrestler pitted
against him, and his throw of hammer
marked in one of the country stations
has not been equaled. This very eapa-
bic man of war, having cried quits with
the British arms, found his way into the
Ameer's service, and viii cross swords
with his former brethern in arms.

Self-praise-TO extOl ones own virtue

The cost of it-About pint of tears

The use of riches If men would
make better use of money while they
are alive, there would be less legal strife
over it after they are dead.

he does not always tell the truth.
'My wife," remarks one Benedick to
another, ''has the IoveIest head of hair

How theyLlve.

On stipend of sixty or eighty cents
a day, the Swiss workman not only sup
ports himself, but also pays house rent,
raises family of three or four children,
sends them to school from the age of
eight to fifteen, and, perhaps, lays up
something for rainy day. To be able
to do this however, he must use eeonO-
my. He cannot have meat three times
a day, OF spend much of his earnings in
saloons, fortunately for his health and
the welfare of his family. His two liv-
ing rooms serve as a kitchen, bedroom,
sitting-rOOm and parlOr. His breakfast
will consist of some substitute Of coffee,
a soup, and plenty of bread; his dinner
of soup, the meat from which this is
made, potatoes and bread, with, perhaps,
a measure Of yin ordfRaire, or beer. His
supper is repetition of the breakfast,
the coffee being omitted, its place being
taken by wine. Itis surpris' 'ng what an
amount of bread is eaten by the poorer
classes in Europe. In Germany it Is a
black or rye bread; in Switzerland it is
a very heavy wheat bread that is nearly
black. This bread is baked in immense
lOaves, and sold by weight. A good
quality costs five cents a pound. WO-
men are the principal venders Of this
article Of diet.

Prosperity.

Let not prosperity elate thine heart
beyond measure, neither depress thy
soul into the grave because fortune
beareth hard against thee. Her smiles
are not stable, therefore build not conf
dence upon them; her frOwns endure
not forever, therefore let hope teach thee
patience. To bear adversely welli is diff
cult; but to be temperate in prosperity
is the height of wisdom.

ssgaoity of the Deer.

A nimrOd, who has been in the habit
of hunting deer in the Adirondack
mountains, is of the opinion that the
deer is often more than a match for a
dog, in sagaeity. The deer seems to be
well aware that the dog is guided by his
faculty of scent, in tracking him; and
all the deer's efforts are directed to
battling and thwarting this keen and
wonderful sense with which the dog is
gifted. With this purpose, the deer will
often make enormous leaps, or run
around in circle, so as to confuse and
puzzle his pursurers. He will mount a
stone wall, aware that the dog cannot
scent him so well on the rock as on the
grass. If he can find a pond or stream
of water, the deer will swim a long dis
tance, so that the dog may lose his trail
1t is joyful sound TO the poor hunted
deer when the dogs set up that dismal
howl which they send up when they
lose all scent of the deer and despair OF
finding it. He is then a happy deer.
He hides quietly in some covert among
the bushes, and he takes care to place
himself where the wind will carry all
odors OF his body away from the direc-
ton where he suppOses the dog to be.

Friends and Enemies.

To live with our enemies as if they
might one day be our friends, and to live
with our friends as if they might become
our enemies, is a political maxim, but it
is siIaccOrdance with the nature of friend
ship. If friendship cannot be trusted,
1t is not friendship.

A Pure Heart.

The history of the world teaches no
lesson with more impressive solemnity
than this: that the only safeguard of a
great intellect is pure heart: that evil
no sooner takes possession of the heart
than folly commences the conquest of
the mind.

Loving Friends.

Never cast aside your friends if by
any possibility you can retain them. We
are the weakest of spendthrifts if we
let one thing drop off through inatten-
ton, or let one push away another, or if
we hold aloof from one from petty jeal-
ously or headless slight or roughness.

Happiness All Around.

The foundation of domestic happiness
is faith In the virtue and truth Of wO-
man; the foundation Of political happi-
ness Is confidence in the integrity Of
man; the foundation Of all happiness,
temporal aud eternal, is reliance on the
goodness aud mercy Of God.

Misfortune.

There is an instinct in the heart of
man which makes him fear a clOudless
happiness. 1t seems to him that he owes
to misfortune a tithe of his life, and
that which he does not pay bears inter
est, is amassed, and -argely swells a debt
which, sooner or later, he must acquit.

into retirement in tho prime of life.
They become drOnes, of very little use
to themselves or to others. There is
now and then among such men a stud.
ent, whose intellectual pursuits afford
him an inexhaustible spring of enjoy
ment. But, as a general thing, long ad-
diction to the close pursuit to business
disqualifies one for anything else, and
retired business men are, consequently,
without any occupation worthy of the
name, and seem, ridiculously enough,
to be standing around and just waiting
for their time to come to die; which, we
have no doubt, comes much sooner than
it would if their minds were diverted
by some useful pursuit. Life is short,
at best, if all of it is occupied; but to
sit down in idIeness in ones prime, is
Ike destroying Lalf our days. Best and
rust are synonymous terms. Industry
is indispensable to happiness at what
ever stage of our existence; and 20 re-
tire out of ones accustomed occupation
is to retire into misery, as many a man
has found to his lasting sorrow.
