Reasonable Economy.

We do not like st,nginess. We do
not like economy when it comes down
to rags and starvation. We have no
sympathy with the notion that the poor
man should hitch himself to a post and
stand still while the rest of the world
moves forward. 1t is no mans duty to
deny himself every amusement, every
luxury, every recreation, every comfort,
that he may get rich. 1t is no mans
duty to make an iceberg of himself. to
shut his eyes and ears to the sutferings
of his fellows, and deny himself the
enjoyment that results from generous
action, merely that he may hoard wealth
for his heirs to quarrel about. But there
is an economy which is especially COM
mendable in the man who struggles
with poverty-an economy which is con-
sistent with happiness, and which must
be practiced if the poor man would
secure independence. 1t is almost every
mans privilege, and it becomes his duty,
to live within his means; not up to but
within them. Wealth does not make
the man. and should never be taken into
account in our judgment of men, but
confidence should always be secured
when it can by the practice of economy
and self-denial to only tolerable extent.
It should be secured, not so much for
others to look upon, or to raise US in the
estimation of others, as to secure to us
the consciousness of independence. and
the constant satisfaction which is re-
ceived from its requirement and posses

A Young Hero.

Abby of fourteen became hero in
charity night school in New York the
other evening. He was quietly learn
ing his lesson with his head bent down
over his book, as if he had done some
thing to make him ashamed of himself.
The other boys were all looking at him
and not at their books, and keeping up
continual buzzing which interrupted
the recitations. The schoolmaster was
about to administer reproof for the
noise, and all the faces were attentive
to what was coming except one-that
one porting over the book, apparently
the culprit. At length one little fellow
could stand the pressure of the situation
no longer. He bounded up and ad-

A Polite Little Boy.

Sixty or seventy years ago children
were trained both at home and at school
to be far more mannerly than they are
now. No little boy thought of going
into neighbor's house without pulling
off his hat, tucking it under his arm,
and making q bow. making your
Manners" they called it.
Little Calvin had been thus trained,
and though only three or four years
old, always did so when he went any,
where.
He had never yet been to church, and
as his mother was making him a suit of
clothes that he might 60, puzzling
question came into his little head:
"Ought he to make his manners when
he went into church?'
He wanted to ask some one, but,
like many older people, -he was
ashamed to ask what seemed 50 simple
question.
The Sunday morning came, and still
he had not found out what to do.
"rll be on the safe side," he thought
to himself. lit can't do any HARM"
So, when fairly inside the church
door, he tucked his hat under his arm,
squared up and made his manners.
dare say there were some to smile
at the odd sight, but l think the good
Father, to whose worship the church
was consecrated, was pleased with this
act of politeness in the innocent little
boy.--H0uths Companion.

Collecting His Fare Again.

Yesterday afternoon stranger was
going down Third street, moving in
zigzag lines as if he had contract from
Engineer Scowden for taking the d.
mansions of the sidewalk. 1t was not
the length of the street, but the width,
that bothered him 80 much. In one
hand he carried hat-box and an UNI
brel;a, and in the other gripsack;
while under each arm were stuffed sew
eral domestic-lookingb bundles. He was
evidently making for the Cincinnati
mailboat.
On reaching the wharf he stepped
aboard and proceeded Immediately to
the cabin. Tumbling into chair, with
his baggage scattered around his feet,
he was soon oblivious to all that was
passing, and remained so till he was
reused by the Captain, who shook him
persistently and yelled the word stick
et.' Our stranger indicated that he
had no ticket.
"Fare, them" demanded the Cap
tain.
Chow muzh?''
He was told, and he handed his loose
change to the Captain. who took the
proper amount. He was soon snoring
again.
Half hour passed, and the Captain
again made his appearance.
"Farer'
"How muzh?''
The amount was stated as before; the
stranger ponied UP and again fell asleep.
This thing was gone over four times,
and when the Captain for the fifth time
aroused the sleeper, he had sobered up
a little, and was evidently as mad as a
hornet. Looking daggers at the indie
fatigable collector, he muttered:
"Look ERE, Cap'n, why the deuce
don't you elect all your fare at once?
What you come 'sturbing a man this
way for? How much to Cincinnati?''
Cincinnatir' yelled the Captain.
"This here amt no Cincinnati steamer.

SPEAKING of goodness calls to mind
an incident that happened in one of our
shops this week, showing again the
poor side of frail humanity. A man
from a neighboring village, wealthy and
well known as generous giver to va
rious institutions. and yet close-fsted
and penurious withal, was having a lit
tie job done in shop. and as he came
for the work an lrishman who had
worked for him said to the men: "See
me buy his soul for two cents" at the
same time laying a two-cent piece upon
the bench where the work was. The
gentleman, seeing the money, after
hastily looking about the room to see
that no one was looking, picked up the
money and put it in his pocket. When
he came to pay for his repairs he was
charged twenty-seven cents. As he
had generally paid but twenty-five cents
for the same work, he inquired what
the extra two cents was for, and, after
some urging, he was gently informed
that it was to pay for the two cents
he had picked up. He quickly left the
shop.-SprinafeM (Mass.) Republican.

The girls went to work on their gram

kettle. Every thoughts spun
round that black, Kissing object just
now. They talked a good deal about it,
but Joe did not appear to be listening.
The steam had stopped entirely, and he
was carrying lighted shaving with
trembling hands toward the spout of
the kettle. A brilliant blaze suddenly
lighted up the house.
- Hurrahr' cried Joe. "Sell your
box of candles and buy yourself new
gown, mother. Hurrah for school and
shingles all winter! Hurrah!'
"Why, Joe?' cried his mother, some
thing sparkling in her eyes. "why, Joe,
I didn't think It would burn so; but it
does, and I'm glad of it, too"

And it did. At bedtime the tea
kettle was taken from the crane and the
Dlaze extinguished. The next evening
it was hung on again-this time without
opposition-and lighted after it got hot,
no time being lost in waiting for steam
to dry off. Joe split his shingles now
without delay, and never was there a
more diligent and happy fellow. To-
ward the end of the week the crust
burned off the cracks in the kettle,
whereupon the light became more
brilliant than ever, for it streamed out
from every crack as we'll as from the
spout, and the black, old tea kettle was
clothed in a mantle of Pickering fire.
But Joe was afraid the shattered con.
stitution of his favorite would hardly
hold together under so much excite.
ment. So, ON Saturday, he plastered
the cracks over anew, this time with
clay, and filed it with a new stock of
birch-bark.
And thus he worked by his tea-kettle
light all winter and got his schooling,
too.

The Famine i'm Persia.

The recent accounts of the famine
and diphtheria in Russia are supple
mented, if not paralleled, by reports of
starvation in Persia obtained from trust
worthy sources. 1t appears that a
large part of last years crop was de-
stroyed by an unusual and heavy rain
fall, which lasted nearly a month, at
the time of the thrashing. The rainfall
was succeeded by an unexampled
drought, and the grain-fields. vine
yards, cotton-plantations, melon-fields
and gardens failed to produce their GUS
tomary crops. The drought was rendered
the more destructive from the fact that a
great part of the grain of Persia isgrown
upon mountain slopes, where no ia
cilities for irrigation exist. The aver
age crop at the last harvest didnot exceed
the quantity of seed sown. Even the
irrigated fields of the plains and valleys
yielded only a quarter or q fifth crop,
and this is in the hands of landowners
who are either holding it for seed or
storing it in the hope Of realizing fabu.
lous prices when the pressure becomes
little sharper. Probably half of the
usual grain supply of Oroomiah usually
comes from the neighb0ring districts.
This supply is entirely stopped, and
more than half the population are utter
ly destitute. There is little work to be
had since the cotton spinning industry
has failed, and the result is that man
working steadily for sixteen hours q
day at the wages paid could scarcely
provide food for more than one person.
The mOuntaineers of Koordistan have
been oppressed and impoverished by
the plundering of the Koords ever
since the war between Turkey
and Russia; their crops have failed, and
they flock into Oroomiah by hundreds
of families, hungry and naked, and
hundreds have persisted. The crops
have also failed largely in the Caucasian
fields, and famine and pestilence are
already raging there. There are not
less than 50, 600 starving families in the
vicinity of Oroomiah. In view of these
facts an appeal has been issued and
an effort will be made to collect
fund for the starving. This appeal
comes through the President of the
Ladies' Board of Missions in this city
Mrs. James Lorimer Graham, and con-
tributions may be sent to their Treas
urer. Mrs. q. q. HART, No. 80 West

I" Perpetual Notion. -

PROBABLY tnefe mas not Deen time
within the past twenty years that some
one in this city was not at work endeav-
oring to solve the impossible problem
of perpetual notion Sometimes as
many as two or three have been stimuli
taneously racking their brains in this
direction. If we suppose that Chicago
is fair sample of the rest of the civil
lied world in this particular, we must
conclude that many scores OF men are
always wasting their energies upon
this scientific absurdity.
The revolution of wheel under the
action of magnets fixed near its circum-
ference is type of one class of inven-
tons; which are failures because mag.
nets lose their power, and even change
their condition under the proposed cir
cumstances. The idea that the desired
motion can be obtained by the pressure
of dead weight was entertained in
good faith few years ago, though
self evidently absurd. By far the great
est number of inventors, however. seek
to obtain "power' by causing weights
to descend with greater beverage"
than that by which they are raised. In
some of the machines which the writer
has examined, the apparatus is compli-
Gated so much as to make it difficult to
detect the error; but it is there always.
Balls descending at the circumference 9
of wheel and rising near the hub;
weights falling down an inclined plane
and lifted perpendicularly or the re-
verse; mercury transferred up and
down i'll a similar way, etc., are the
staples of thought about perpetual
notion" All may be proved to be
fallacious by any one who has mastered
the first principles of the science of me-
chanics.
The Inventor once committed to
the idea seldom gives it up, except
when life ends. He builds a "ma-
chine'' rudely, and thinks that its fail
ure to work is solely owing to the fact
that it is not well constructed. He
tries to induce editors to commend the
principle, and men with money to help
him to develop it. His failure in both
directions only drives him back more
completely upon himself, and he broods
over the matter all the more intensely
and doggedly as he believes that he is
an unappreciated, abused man. Argu-

person who disagrees with him is sim
ply prejudiced or blind, and is de-
nounced as refusing to aid in develop
ing the greatest discovery ever vouch-
safed to mOrtals.
1t would be absurd to suppose that
we know all the forces of nature, or the
best modes of using those at present
harnessed to the service of man. 1t is
not improbable that our investigators
will yet find out means of obtaining
"power'' at cost which will be in
Significantly small US compared with
that now necessary. But they will
never get something out of nothing.
nor succeed in obtaining an effect
which is greater than its producing
cause. Hence the perpetual motion is
impossible, because it can never be re-
allied so long us the above-named con-
ditions exist. Just as we can multiply
nothing into any finite number we
please without obtaining result greater
than zero, SO may we experiment to the
end of time and be no nearer than now
to the creation OF power Chicago

bride. To their surprise they found
only a few old ladies within, who,
frightened almost to death, assured
them that "the boys" had not re-
turned. The Wheeless party then
camped in front of the house and laid
formal siege. About ten o'clock they
saw the Womble brothers and their
father riding leisurely up the road
toward the house. Wheeless angrily
demanded his wife. He received as
angry reply, and was told that she,
had been put out of the reach of such
scoundrels as he. Blood boiled ON
both sides, and desperate fight seemed
to be the only possibility. There were
fortunately, however, some sober
brains on both sides, and they cooled
the more heated disputants and dis
suaded them from violence. After
waiting until dark the Wheeless party
returned home, angry and baffled. but
not discouraged.
Both counties had heard of the affair
by the next day, and were in great ex-
element over it. Each of the parties
to the feud had host of friends to vol
unteer assistance.
Two days passed. and no news of the
missing bride came. On the third day
an old family servant told Wheeless
that he had learned from some of his
colored friends that the wife was locked
up at the home of her uncle, sixteen
miles away. The exasperated husband
was about to set out on another raid,
when his father told him that he could
get his wife in a much safer and better
way. The old mans counsel prevailed.
The next day a village lawyer sued out
a writ of habeas corpus, proved the
marriage, took the Sheriff and went
after the girl, whom he restored to
Wheeless.
The excitement over the affair has
lulled considerably, but there is still
much bad blood, and, as yet, little love
between the Wombles and the Wheel
