Rest For the Weary.

What strange thought All this rest
less world is seeking rest. Those who
drag their weary bodies home, night af-
ter night, and fall down upon restless
beds, worried with the anxieties and
cares of business, are yet seeking rest,
rest. 1t is not found in poverty, perhaps
it turks under the rich man, all the while
he lies groaning upon las couch or stands
with wrinkled brow perplexed with care.
Where is rest? What is rest? 1t is the
divine principle of peace within that
comes from God. AS we'll seek roses up
on the pallid cheek of death as rest out
of God. The needle never rests till it
turns to the pole. IF a little child is
frightened at play, he comes running in
to the house to mother. She takes him
to her bosom, presses kisses upon his
brow, and while she sings some lullaby
of love, all fear fades from his face and
he sleeps in peace. God wants to fill a
mothers place for the whole world. If
it be misfortune, or poverty, or gloomy
foreboding that makes one unhappy, God
can give him rest, and breath lullaby of
love above his tempest-tossed soul that
will still it's raging. Rest, peace, is prin-
ciple that lies within us and not without.
Some, possessing it, have found crown
ed head uneasy. 0, that every anxious,
longing heart would look away to Him
who walks among the golden lamps of
heaven! "Take my yoke upon you and
We shall find rest unto your souls"

A stranger in Bodie one day last week,
in eating plate of hash at a restaurant,
being very hungry, unguardedly neg
lected to chew it well, ard swallowed a
large coat button. They doctored him
for the pneumonia three days before he
was able to explain. Then, according to
the Gold Hill NeaUs, they fed him big
button-hole tied to string and fished it
out in no time. He screens all his hash
very carefully through cane-bottomed
chair now before he eats it.

The Crane.

We have about seven hundred vines
on trellis, and about fifteen hundred on
stakes, and have had for the past ten
years, and we prefer the trellis, al
though we admit that the trellis culture
is a failure oftener than stake, for the
reason that SO many persons do not
study the nature, habits and wants Of
the vine. On the stake, necessity forces
them to keep the fruiting wood near the
source of supply (the root,) while on
trellis they may let them grow ten,
twenty, or even forty feet from the root,
and then they are like an army drawing
it's supplies long distance through an
enemy's country. The grape only fruits
on the last years growth of wood, and,
if a leader be continued from year to
year on the end of the vine, it grows a
great way from the root and all side
laterals disappear from near the base,
and it only sets fruit near the extreme
end. But the leader or end of the vine
should be cut off as soon as the vine has
acquired sufficient length, say four to
six feet that will throw out side late
rails which will form fruiting spurs one
year by cutting them back two buds, and
in turn those two buds will produce the
fruit and form wood for two fruiting
spurs the following season. There should
never be more than two or three canes
from one root, and that should be re-
placed by new cane, either from the
ground or as near the ground as a good
one can be had. Our vineyard has been
in bearing eleven years, and there are
very few, if any, vines more than four
years-old or more than eighteen inches
above ground. w.

that the effect of the fifteen arches on
Wabash avenue, together with the Grand
Encampment Asylum and the Lake Park
Arch, will be superb, the former will pre-

The pitching of tents on Like Park for

TO be occupied by the tents extends from
the Exposition building to Park Place,
and from Michigan Avenue to the railroad

"There is no greater every day virtue
than cheerfulness. This quality in man
among men is like sunshine to the day,
or gentle renewing moisture to parched
herbs. The light of a cheerful face diff
fuses itself, and communicates the happy
spirit that inspires it. The sourest tenn
per must sweeten in the atmosphere of
continuous good humor."
Country people are always good. The
wife may sew tares, rip and darn in the
house, while the husband goes down to
the meadow and dams the brook.

some time I stood there shivering, doubling list

Waiting for the sound of boring to re-commence
once more:
Soon the silence it was broken, and thus by that

Not sign of any boring did all of my exploring

The common fuency of speech in
most women is owing to a scarcity of
words; for whoever is master of Ian
guages, and hath mind full of ideas,
will be apt in speaking to hesitate upon
a choice of both; whereas common
speakers have only one set of ideas, and
one set of words to clothe them in, and
these are always ready at the mouth; SO
people come faster out of church when
it is almost empty than when crowd is
at the door.

And the stiffness all around me for moment did
confound me-
Thrilled me-fled me with fantastic telrors seldom
felt before;
So that now to still the beating of my heart,
stood repeating
''Tis my dog, "Old Maj" entreating entrance,
scratching at the door,
Very soon the sound, repeating, plainly shook and

THE BURGLAR.
Somewhat otter the sty,s of Poe's Raven"
BY H. E. ROUNDS.

H. E. ROUNDS.
once upon a midnight dreary while slumbered,
chill and weary,
In my cot fornenst the counter in well-known
village store,
L was Weakened by my snoring, and methought I
heard boring
AS of some one gently boring boring at the front
store door.
IT'S some cussed thief" muttered, working at
the well-loclSed door
That it is, and nothing more"
All! distinctly remember, it was in the bleak De-
Cember
And chill came DER my corpus as stepped upon
the floor,
And the noise 1 made in getting out of bed and on
ii sitting,
Caused the burglar to desst-to quit working at
the door,
Then quickly drew my socks on--shirt and draw
erS ID on before
Only those, and nothing more.

In the morning, when Aurora rose in splendor and
in glory
/ was busy sweeping dirt from off the wellWorn
soaxen floor,
And happened to ''dskiver" what had caused me
so to SILVER
door,
Made by 'Iong-tailed midnight ranger'-only that
and nothing more!
"I6et you" Lfeh sore!!

And that rat-hole, there remaining-months have
passed, it's still remaining
Near the door-sill at the bottom of the right-hand
entrance door,
Still reminds me of the thrilling time had in
shooting, killing,
That COMPOUNDED prowling villain who aedsnt
boring through the door;
Aad the rats from out that rathole, when the day
confusions oer
Crawl out and play, and fight and squeak, and
acamper long the floor,
Just lively as before.

nTwas my fancy-nothing more. )

Back into my bed tumbled, with ideas rather jum-
bled-
Soon again heard that boring rather louder than
before
Thunder said I, "thunderation in the name of
all creation, ~
What can be the occasion of that racket at the
door?
Is it possible that spirits are playing pranks once
more,
AS they did in days of yore?
Much marveled that SO plainly could hear the
sound, which Vainly .l,.# .fs..s
I had tried to explain cearly-that everlasting
bore
And I couldn't help agreeing that no living human
being
Ever yet blessed with seeing ghosts at work
on lock or door.
So I said my prayers-as usual-no wiser than
before,
Shut up my optics, and soon began to snore.
And when slumber's chains had bound me, /
saw in dreams around ME
Phantom figures fitting softly about that village
store;
And the dreams had all the seeming of reality
would that dreaming
Did not always prove fallacious: it is such aw-

being the case. Outside of the people
who pay rents when due and have no

if he doesn't come to time, walks into
the office with Il look Of awful dignity
on his brow, and says
"Going to shut off my water, eh?"
Silence on the part of the clerk.
"Td like to see you try it on,
