a Story Fer Parents

Ella NJ. S. Marble relates the following
incident in the Gospel Banner, which con-
tans an excellent lesson for parenti
Little Jack T. was the son of poor parents.
They were not poor because they were
ntemperate or shittlsss, forthcy were respects-
BILE, hard working people, and for some reason
which | will not attempt to give, tney never
got along in the world and perhaps it was
tn that made them irritable, and prone to
whip .little Jack. They were pious people
too, and if Jack told a lie, of course he must
be whipped. The idea of not whipping 4
child who did such a wicked thing! Bruislns
the flesh is such an eifectual way of instiliins
q love and reverence for the pure and good
into little child's mind! AT least Jack was
whipped ior this and Jack vas whipped for
that, until he learned that to offend was to be
whipped.
One day lie lad leave to go and play with
two little schoolmates, brother and sister, and
after running about hunting the eggs, playing
ball and the like, they sat down on the piazza
to make whistles aud rest. Jack had knife
and Hal had knite, but sister Maud, aged
seven, had none, so she ran into the house to
borrow papa's. She was soon back a.d all
worked busly for a time; but whether it
was because she was Il girl or what it was |
cannot tell, but Maude broke the bark on
every piece Of willow and it refused TO
whistle, and finally declaring that sit wasn't
any fun to make whistles, she slid down
upon the terrace where the daptnlions were
blossoming profEsely and commenced digging
green's. Pretty soon the boys heard quick,
sharp snap, and Maude was looking ruefully
at the broken blade in her hand.
"Now, won't you catch IT, Jack called
out.
Catch what? >" innocently asked Maudie,
going towards the door
"Catch u licking Of couse,'; replied Jack.
''No, | shan't was the somewhat indignant
reply; ''my papa don't whip me-
"But look here" called Jack, ''you amt
agoing to show it to him, arc you?'
"Why, yes" said Maudic, comiu. back ;
''why shouldn't -
"Why, he'll lick you sure as the world,
re-atlirlmed Jack. ''Iou just 90 and throw
| that knife away, aud when he asks you for it
tell him you gave it back to hlm, and stick to
! it, and he'll believe it ard think lie has lost
il, and then you won't catch licking.
Maudie looked at her young adviser indis-
nantly for one moment, and simply saying
my papa won't lick me, he never does y
she walked into the house. Going dierctly to
her papa she held up the broken blade
saying-''i broke your knife, papa"

you do ,Eat, dear?''

"Well, dear, when you are doing anything

big blade. Will you try and remember?''
Yes, papa" and as her father resumed
his reading Maudie turned and walked slowly
from the room, every movement and look
showing that she was telling very sorry about
the knife. A lady sitting near, asked:
"Now, pray tell me why you never scolded

So clear we know not if it is
The laverock's song we hear, or his.
Nor care to ask.
For him the ploughing Of those fields

Than sheaves of grain;
Songs flush with purple blOoT te rye:

Sing In his brain.
Touched by his hand, the wayside weed
Becomes a flower; the lowliest reed
Beside the stream
Is clothed with beauty; gorse and grass
And heather, where his footsteps pass.
The brightest seem.
He sings of love- whose flame illumes
The darkness OF lone cottage rooms;
He feels the force,
The treacherous undertow and stress
OF wayWard passions, and no less
The keen remCrsc.
At moments. wrestling with his fate,
His voice is harsh, but not with hate:
The brushWOOd hung
Above the tavern door let's fall
Its bitter leaf, its drops Of gall.
|Upon his tongue.

AS an immortal youth, his hand
Guides every plough:
He sits beside each inSlenOok;
His voice is in each rushing brook.
Each rastling bough.
His presence halInts thiS room tonight
A form of mingled mist and light,
From that far coast,
Welcome beneath this roof Of nSine!

A Hint t0 Advertisers.

A millionaire, who has made every dollar of his fortune by advertising offers, on retiring from business, this bit of advice gratis to those he leaves strug- gling behind, while he departs for Europe to enjoy life: The fault of the ordinary advertiser is this, he goes in for spurt, and while the fit is on him he will pay money to any journal he may fall across. By-and-bye the bills come in; the advertiser finds he has spent three times as many dollars as he meant to; and as there are no replies to his advertising, he thinks the speciality he has been trying to introduce. has fallen fat on the public taste, or business has become dull, and he fancies buyers are few and little likely to gay atten- tion to his announcements. He stops short accordingly, and loses nearly all the benefit of his previous expenditure The success reaped by those whose ad- vertisements appear every year should teach men of business first to be careful in the selection of the medium they choose, and next when satisfied on this point, to persevere, ,disregarding apparent failure, and never retrenching expendi- ture when business is dull, as that is the time when advertising IS most neces- aaru

A Professor Of Respiration.

A poorly clad, eccentric looking man, named Goblard, was charged the other day before one of the Paris police courts with beggary. The magistrate asked what was his profession, and the prisoner replied that he was a professor of res
 piration. The magistrate told him that he was charged with beggary. Goblard pleaded not guilty, ana asked to be al- lowed to say word in his defense. The request was granted. He then stated that though he had been arrested while calling at the different houses in street, yet he did not make those calls for the purpose of begging, but merely to give lessons. Sometimes the people gave him money and sent him away, but though he took the money, yet he always offered his lessons in return. Amidst loud laughter in court, he proceeded to explain his method for curing and strengthening the respiratory organs
 He said that before going to bed at night and on getting up in the morning the sufferer should hold up his hands be- hind his back, and inhate the chest again and again for ten or fifteen minues at a time, and indeed, if the patient had any spare time during the day the opera tion might be repeated. Notwithstand- ing his eloquent defense tho court found poor Goblard guilty, and the professor was sent to prison for fifteen days.

What Some Words Mean in Law.

Eggs are not "meat" " nor "poul- try within statute prohibiting the sale of such articles when unsound. Boring through a floor with an auger constitutes 8 burgla lary, says the A labama supreme court, in Walker against State. This was where the prisoner bored a hole through the upper floor of a corn crib, stopped it up with cob, and after ward, on a separate occasion, drew the shelled corn through the hole into 8 sack underneath the crib. Brass knucks" is used in the statute as the name of a weapon, without reference to the metal of which it is made. There fore a conviction of unlawfully carrying "brass knucks" !" will not be set aside because it was proved that the weapon was lead or pewter. Terms cash" is not equivalent to "received payment" " "Terms cash" on an unreceipted bill of goods, sent by a wholesale to retail dealer, cannot be held as 8 matter of law to imply that the goods were paid for before they were shipped.
 A farm overseer is not a 'laborer " within the lien law. Notes, bills, etc., representing money loaned on interest by a corporation, are property " liable to taxation. A railroad depot is a warehouse" within the statute of burglary.
 A Sunday school is not "divine wor- ship;" but building for the sessions of Sunday school and religious lectures is for 8 religious purpose" although occasionally used for fairs and other benevolent purposes. The court said Gin Pennsylvania easel. "The Sun day school rooms and the lecture room Of a modern church are as essentially used for religious purposes as the body of the church building itself. The Sab- bath-schools are an important auxiliary of every Christian church, and indis- pensible to it's life and growth. That the services in such schools are in the main ot a religious character is too well known to be seriously disputed. So of the lecture room. It is used for the mid-week evening lectures and other services, when the attendance is not large. The expense of lighting and heating the main church building is thus avoided. But the services upon such occasions are as truly religious in in their character as the sermon upon the Sabbath"
 A supervising archi ect is person performing "labor," although not a 'slaborer," within the meaning of the mechanics lien law. A widow keeping 8 boarding house, with female friend residing with her. and female servants, besides the hoarders, is the "head of a family" But a single man who keeps house and has no persons living with him than servants and employees, is not the "head of family" or ''house- keeper" And an unmarried man, who does not keep house, but supports his mother and unmarried sister, who board with his married sister in another town, is not the head of a family ."- Albdny Ld,o Journal.
