Unmarked Reefs.

The Chicago Inter Ocean calls atten-
tion to the danger in navigating the
lakes from unmarked reefs, and says:
'The disasters during the past season
and during the season of 1878, indicate
the presence of three dangerous reefs
that are not down on the government
charts, and are not buOyed. One is on
Lake Michigan. off Hyde Park, i'm the
track of vessels and tugs plying between
Chicago and South Chicago. The latest
vessel to find it" was the bark Great
West, but numerous tugs have also
struck it. Another reef not down on
the charts, and not buOyed, was found"
i'm the straits, the exact location of which
can be learned at ChebOygan, or better
from Captain Kirkland of the wrecking
tug Leviathan. The third unmarked
and unbuOyed reef is i'm Green Bay di-
rectly in the track of vessels, the exact
location of which can be learned of at
Escanaba. Several vessels struck this
latter obstruction the past season, sus-
tanning damage, and it is supposed now
that the schooner Etna, which went
down i'm 1878, sustained her damage on
the newly discovered reef in the straits,
as she is known to have struck some
where i'm the locality where the new reef
| is now located by the recent accident.
1t is not impossible either that the Kate
L. Bruce, the C. B. Windiate, and other
crafts that have disappeared with all
hands sustained the damage that sunk
| them on this hitherto unknown enemy.
By all means let the reefs already found
be marked, and let us have statistician
who will record the facts when still
other reefs and other dangers are dis
covered, so that they can be marked and
i'm the future avoided.

THE PATIENT ANGLER.

IN angler, sat by an old sawmill.
And angled away in the flowing rll.
Dreaming of fish that, traditions say,
Deep in those waters hide away;
Pickerel perch, eel, and bull pout,
And legend whisper, speckled trout,
This last named fish must be taken on spec,
No man ever saw his head or neck:
One man has seen the end of his tail
Going down stream like an express mail.
But to our tale: As | said before,
The patient angler sat by the shore,
And the tools of his trade around him lay.
Hackles, dun, brown red, speckled. and gray,
And flies artificial, ofevery hue,
Millers, grubs, and grasShOppers, too:
And good old 'Walton's Angler Complete, .
The fsherman'S Bible, lay at his feet
And thus he sat and angled away,
! gently spoke to the fisherman gray,
"HallOa my friend how goes the fight
With the finny tribes Had'st e'er bite ~
Not vet he sighed, and whispered low,
I've only been here day or So"
Time rolled on and I passed that way;
There sat the angler, old and gray.
The hornet had built a nest in his hat,
lis shoes were the home of the sporting gnat
And yellow jackets We're coming to rest
Within the folds of his peaceful vest;
Earwigs, horsehies, and the beetles brown
We're sporting around his snowy crown;
But there he sat by the old sawmill
Happy, contented, and patient still
As thus he sat and angled away.
gently spoke to this fisherman gray,
Halloa! my friend how goes the fight
With the finny tribes? Had'st Ger bite ?
Not yet, he sighed, and whispered low,
I've only been here a month or So

Finding Fault.

Does it pay to find fault? You who
are the wise keepers of hearts, does it
pay? There are heavy burdens to bear
all day-manifold cares from the rising
to the setting of the sun-blunders
by those who should have known bet
ter, many thing TO annoy; but don't
make cold and cherries the home at
mosphere by finding fault. There Is no
blight more deadly in its tendency
nothing that can more surely disturb
the harmony of home; nothing that
will recoil more quickly upon yourself
than the habit of fault finding Not
that errors should go unrebuked, or
mistakes mcorrected; but note such
down in your memory, and when the
work and care and tumult of the day
are all over, then call the little ones and
the larger ones around you, and then
tell them soberly but kindly of the
wrong-doings, and see if you. are not
amply repaid for your forbearance
by the smile and the tear, and the little
word of contritiOn and promise of
amendment. You will be thousand
times happier when you lie down to
sleep, and a sweet forgetfulneSs has set
tied over your little flock, than YOU
would have been had the blue eyes now
closed been filled with bitter tears that
overlooked at unkind censure, or had
the little golden head dropped under the
shadow of your constant frown. How
fair, and sweet, and satisfying life might
be to us all if We would forget to fret
and find fault and complain. Don't
save your words for praise and appreci-
alton until it is too late You love the
little children-the dear little children
And if they do speak loud, and leave
doors open that should be shut, and dis
turb the order of the house, don't find
fault. 1t won't pay.

The Greatest in the World.

Without question Buffalo, n. Y, can boast oil
the largest and most complete private Sanitarium
in the world. The Invalid's Hotel was founded
by DR.. II. V. Pierce, who has represented his dis
trict state senator and in congress, and
is known throughout the United States as the
originator OF DR.. Piercc's Family Medicines, and
who has also become widely celebrated IN the
treatment OF chronic diseases. The erection of
this mammoth home for invaids was made nee
essary by the large number of afflicted who flock
ed to Buffalo from all parts of the United States
to consult DR.. Pierce and the eminent medical
gentlemen associated with him as the faculty of
this celebrated institution. The establishment
is said to have cost nearly half million of dol
lars, and is furnished with every appliance and
facility for the care Of chronic ailments. A cor
respondingly large branch institution is located
in London, England. The whole concern is own
ed and operated by the Worlds Dispensary Medi
cal Association, of which Dr. Pierce is presi-
dent-his brother, an uncle, and other eminent
medical gentlemen taking part in the treatment
of cases. In treating cases they are not at all
confined to the narrow limits of prescribing the
justly celebrated remedies, DR.. Picrce's Golden
Medical Discovery, Pleasant Purgative Pellets
or any other set remedies, however good, but

A Runaway Husband.
Detroit Free Press

One day last week man residing in
East Toledo, O., skipped from his family
and brought up in Detroit. His wife
got clue to his whereabouts, and came
on after him, and yesterday she had an
interview with him at the Central Sta
ton, where he had been run in for the
purpose. She had no tears to shed.
On the contrary, her hair had fight
ing bang, and as soon as she could get
her breath she began:
$50, you miserable little apology for a
human being, you skipped out, did
you ?"
No reply.
"After had washed and scrubbed,
and sewed for nearly twenty years, 0

lily, did you? Our style of living wasn't
tony enough to suit you, and you want

''Say, Lucy, Pm sorry" he mumbled.
"Well, [ ANTI" she snapped. con,
the contrary, Pm glad of it! You've
chewed tobacco, and drank whisky, and
whitfield shingles, and loafed on the cor
ners at my expense just as long as you
ever willr'
"What do you want of me, then?"
"Want of YOU" Why, | want to
clear my character! All the neighbors
say that you ran away from me, and
some pity me and some laugh. You
ran away from me! Why, you low
down corner loafer, you couldn't run
away from anything but spade or an
AK. / followed you to get this matter
straight. I've got to live there, and I'm
not going to be either pitied or laughed
att"
"What do you want?" he asked.
Heres what [ wantT' she said, as
she seized his collar and twisted him
around. Now you take that-and
that-and that-and I'll have these
officers sign paper that l found you
and kicked you out to take care of your
self! Now you git! Don't ever write
me, don't ever dare to come back to
me! Even if l hear you ever tell any
body that you were married to me,
I'll buy shotgun and hunt for you"
The husband sneaked out doors and
down the street, and the wife, having
the docs" in her pocket, walked the
other way, muttering to herself:
Skipped out! Run away from his
family WE'LL his old shirts will make a
mop worth twice the value of his whole
body! Now, | want to see some one
grin, in the face of this testimonial that
| raised him right off his heels ~
