When a man steps aside from the
straight course in politics, as in relig-
ion, business, or we care not what, it is
an easy matter generally for the devil
to coax him to the bottom; and fortu-
nate that man is who going to the bot
tom rises again. 1t is strange how
perverse men can be, even after max
ing a serious mistake, and knowing
they should turn and go the other way,
tail to do So. Sustained by false pride,
they hesitate to admit that they were
wrong, and they continue on, hoping
that some turn may come to their re:
lief and save them before their ultimate
fall. Men frequently make mistake
in surprising that they are stronger
than the party that dominates them
failing to renlember that no man can
rise superior to his party. Many are
egotistic enough to suppose that they
fovershadow their party, or perhaps
hide it behind iheir own portly form.
The Republican party has lost many
great men who failed to become leaders
at the precise time they thought they
had rights" They attempted swal-
lowing party-but the party swallow
ed them. Another bad mistake made
by many is that the party owes them
something. A.party owes no man any
thing. ~

And when the neighbors rushed in.

And when the neighbors rushed in,
under the impression that the Blaine
boom had burst right in the neigh
borhood, they found the unfortunate
young man paving madly around on
the ground, and screaming out awful
Mexican words terrible to hear, while
the old man lowered over the scene
with the syringe in his hands, looking
like an animated figure escaped from
an allegory. Sympathyzing arms bore
the young man into the house, after
their owners had stopped their nos
t1ils with cotton, and it required the
combined efforts of the fat Girl and
eight friends to bring him to, and it
was some hours before he was able
to fairly inquire if the meteor hit
anybody else when it struck. That
night, beneath the darksome shade of
cypress tree, whose thick branches
the struggling moonbeams vainly
strove to pierce, an cid mans totter-
ing form rested upon q spade, and
silently viewed new-made grave.
He had just buried the syringe.

MARBLE. Quiet but awful is the syr-
inge. In the uncertain light of early
evening the old man sees figure
stealthily drawing near his guarded
pen. With bated breath he awaits
the onslaught. The syringe sounds
it's dreadful "wh-s-s-h-p," and its
deadly contents fly through the air
like wild and mad avenger. A yell
that tore the azure robe of night
fairly knocked the fat girl off the
piano stool and curdled the old mans
blood, followed by the discharge.

He lights a cigarette, and they talk

Habits.

Nothing in the world is so strong
as a fixed habit, good or bad. The
seaman cannot sleep soundly on the
shore, because he misses the tossing
of the ship and the roaring of the
wind. We heard lately of a forlorn
widow who the third night after her
husbands death sat at the window
watching the stars with sleepless eyes.
At last her thoughts, sad and weary,
broke into soliloquy: "This trying
to go to Sleep" she said, without a
quarrel Of some kind is so new that
| csn't stand it." Just then two men
under her window fell to fighting.
Sue watched the conflict to the end,
then quietly undressed, saying,
''that's kind of homelike,' and in q
few minutes was fast asleep.

HOPE.

What though the winter winds blow cold,
And threatening beats the blast
Though ice and snow veil everything,
The spring will come at last.
What though the mists rise fast and thick
And hide the suns bright ray;
Yet. shining throug the gloom once more
He wakes the world to-day.
Then blow We storms, blow fierce and wild
For me, l have no fear,
Oh, gentle footsteps, through the night,
Sweet spring is Fastening near.
The earth then wakens, blooming,
From the silent sleep of night,
She laughs at the sunny heavens,
In merry, wild delight.
She trims her dress with roses fair,
A wreath twines round her head,
The babbling brooklet sparkles clear,
Like tears of JOY she shed.
Rest still, my heart, contented be,
Though cold and chill the day,
For you, and all the world, there comes
A happy, gladstone May. - - -.
For. though life be hell of earth,
VI terrors. strife and pain,
Have courage, only trust in God,
For spring mast come again.

An Awful Squirt.
ROckland Courier.

A Rockland young man, until
quite recently, was counting a fat girl
at the North End, and had progressed
very favorably with his suit. One
evening last week he dressed up in his
best clothes, carefully combed his
hair and started out to make his tri-
weekly visit to his fair one, who was
waiting in the parlor with fond ex-
pectation in her heart, and a cold in
her head, superinduced by the fuctu-
ating weather. This was, as you
might say the prologue to the
tradegy. Itsppears, moreover, that
the fat girls father-who is worth
many Thousand dollars in good,
sensible bonds, and as consequence
is an object of the young mans ten
der regard-had for several nights
previous been the victim of some
miscreant who had ralded on bis hen
pen with disastrous effect. Sick of
such foolishness, he had prepared a
CHASTITY retribution for the fowl Williams
and to this end had filed a big gar
den syringe with about gallon of an
cient beef brine, seasoned with garlic
and favored with assafetida, and
was lying in ambush behind box,
where he could sweep every approach
to the hennery. The young man who
is pretty well acquainted with the
whole family, thought he would sur
prise his girl by entering the house
unexpectedly by the back way.
This is the situation:

Since the introduction of this Spool Cotton
into the American market, its success has
been unprecedented. No other brand of
thread has ever met with the same amount
of public favor in the same space of time.
The go. N. T." manufacturers were the
first to recognize the importance of the Sew
ing Machine and to make a six-cord cotton,
which has ever since been the recognized
standard for machines.
All the improvements in machinery that
the inventive genius of the nineteenth GEN.
tury has produced have been adapted by the
manufacturers of 80. n. T." KAN. Il
At all the great International Fairs of the
world, 30. n. T." has been awarded the
highest honors.
The 80. n. IT" factories at Newark, N. J.
and Paisley, Scotland, employ $500 opera
tives-make sufficient thread daily TO go a.
round the world four times.
