Two Ways of Living.

The old proverb says that every burden we
have to carry offers two handles-the one
smooth and easy to grasp, the other rough
and hard to hold.
One man goes through life taking things
by the rough handle, and he has q hard time
all the way. He draws in tight harness
and it chafes wherever it touches him.
He carries heavy load and he finds it not
worth keeping when he gets it home.
He spends more strength upon the fret and
wear of work than upon the work itself. He
is like a disorganized old mill, that makes a
great noise over small grist because it
grinds itself more than it grinds the grain.
Another man carries the same weight, does
the same work, and find it easy, because he
takes everything by the smooth handle
When he has sharp tools to work with he
keeps his fingers off the edge. When he has
brambes to pull up he takes care not to close
his hand on the briers. When he turns
sharp corners and drives over rough places
he looks well TO the wheel that it may not
strike the stones.
And so it comes to pass that one man signs
and wecps, and another man whistles and
sings on the same road One man always
has something to complain Of and the other
always something to be thankful for. And
yet the busy day brings the same blessings
and the quiet night gives the same rest to both
One turns day to night with murmuring, and
the other turns night to day with gladness
SO much difference does it make, not only
what you do, but how you do it, So much
more DO the success and enjoyment of living
come from the spirit with which we work
than from the task we have to do.-From
Da7k to Daacn, By Daniel Aa'ch.

A Boy Again.

Sometimes an old man becomes boy
again, though too smart to drop into his
second childhood. An illustration of this
pleasant tendency was given, not many
months since, by an old man, with several
millions.
He was in the habit of prowling around
the office of the insurance company in which
he was director. One morning as he was
thus investigating, he happened to come
across the dinner pail of the office-boy. His
curiosity led him to take off the cover. A
slice of homemade bread, two doughnuts and
a piece of apple-pie tempted the millionaire's
appetite He became boy again, and the
dinner-pail seemed the one he had carried
sixty years ago.
Just then the office-boy came in and sur
prised the old man eating the pie-he had
finished the bread and dOughnuts.
"That's my dinner you're eating exclaim-
ed the boy, Indignantly.
Eyes, sonny, / suspect it may be; but it's a
first-rate one, for all that I've not eaten SO
good a one for sixty years"
There" he added, as he finished the pie
"take that and go out and buy yourself a
dinner, but you won't get as good one u
and he handed the boy five dollar bill
For days after, the old man kept referring
to the first-class dinner he had eaten from the
boys pail.

VOL. XXIV----NO. 81.
How to Judge o Horse.

The following simple rules will be found
useful to all parties who a.o about to buy
horse.
Never take the sellers word if dishonest
he will be sure to cheat you; if disposed to be
fair, he may have been the dupe of another,
and will deceive you through representations
which cannot be relied upon
Never trust to horses mouth rs a sure
index to his age.
Never buy horse while in motion; watch
him while he stands at rest, and you will dis
cover his weak points. If sound he will
stand firmly and squarely on his limbs, with.
out moving any ofthem, the feet planted fiat
upon the ground, with legs plumb and natur-
ally poised. If one foot is thrown forward
with the toe pointing TO the ground and the
weight taken from it, disease of the navicular
bone may be suspected, or at least tenderness,
which is precursor ofdisease. If the foot is
thrown out, the toe raised and the heel
brought down the horse has suffered from
lammits, founder, or the back snews have
been sprained, and he is of little future value
When the feet are all drawn together beneath
the horse if there has been no disease there Is
displacement of the limbs at least and q
weak disposition OF the muscles Ifthe horse
stands with his feet spread apart or straddles
with the hind legs, there is weakness in the
loins and the kidneys are disordercd. When
the knees are bent and the legs totter and
tremble, the beast has been ruined by heavy
pulling and will never be right again. what
ever rest and treatment he may have. Con.
tracted or Informed hoofs speak for them
selves.
Never buy horse with blush or milky
cast in his eyes. They indicate constitu-
tional tendency to ophthalmia, moon blind
ness, &c.
Never have anything to do with horse
who keeps his ears thrown backward This
is an invariable indication of bad temper.
If the horses hind legs are SCARED, the
fact denotes that he is kicker
If the knees are blemished, the horse is apt
to stumble.
When the skin is rough and hard and does
not move easily and smoothly to the touch, the
horse is heavy eater and his digestion is
bad
Avoid horse whose respiratory organs are
at all impaired. If the ear is placed at the
side of the heart, and wheeling sound
is heard, it is an indication of trouble. Let
him go.-1WlJ, Field and Farm.

Loving n Whole Family.

81 don't want to make any trouble, but
there is one man in this city who ought to be
gibbeted" began blunt-spoken woman of
As as she stood before the officials of the
Twentieth Street Station day or two ago.
When they inquired for particulars she
handed out letter and said:
"Observe the envelope. That letter is adj
dressed to me. You will see that the writer
calls me his jessamine, and he wants me to set
an early day for the wedding"
When the Captain had finished the letter she
was ready with another, adding:
"And this is addressed to my daughter,
Lucretia. You will see that he calls her his
rosy angel and he says he can't live if she
doesn't marry him. It's the same man."
SO it was, and his letter was as tender as
spring chicken. That finished, she handed
out third, with the remark:
"This is directed to my daughter, Helen
It's the very same man, and in il he calls her
his pansy, and he says he dreams of her."
"Why he seems to love the whole family"
remarked the Captain.
"That's just it. / am widow with two
daughters, and he was counting us all at once
and engaged 20 the three of us at the same
time Oh what wretches there are in this
world %
"Yes, indeed. It's lucky you found him
out"
Yes, tits. If hadn't he might have mar
ried the whole caboodlc of us. If Lucretia
hadn't opened one ofmy letters and i'll hadn't
searched the girls pockets while they were
asleep we'd have thought him an innocent
lamb"
"And do you want him arrested ?"
"No, guess not, but want this matterto go
into the papers as q warning to other women.
Just think of his sitting up with me Sunday
night, Lucretia on Wednesday night, and
Helen on Friday night, and calling each one
of us his climbing rose! Oh sir, the women
ought to know what deceiving animal man
isr
eyes, he's pretty tough"
at has learned me lesson" she said as she
was ready TO go. The next man that comes
sparkling around my house has got to come
right out and say which he's after. If it's the
girls | won't say nothing, and if it's me it
won't do 'em a bit of good to slam things
around and twit me of burying two hus-
bands r'-Dtti0i Free Press

Our Future.

AS soon rs the meeting was fairly under

Affidavy Martin, late of Alabama, but now
travelling in the North rs the agent of a pat
ent fish-hook, was present and desired to adj
dress the club on the subject of our future
1t was voted to hear the address, and after
being received in due form and introduced,

How an Indian Runs Down a Deer.

When sufficiently near, the hunter takes his
aim, and making slight noise with his foot
on the ground, which causes the deer to turn
toward him, has good chance to hit it in the
middle of the forehead. But if he misses the
mark, or his gun misses fire, then the fun be-
gins in earnest, and one of the finest races in
the world can be witnessed--a naked Indian
and a frightened deer at full speed. If the
deer should happen to be not more than year
old, or older, a good runner will bring it down
in few hours, or certainly within fifty or sixty
miles. (The narrator, Jose Mendivil, here in
sists that good runner among the Apaches
can run one hundred and twenty five miles in
twenty four hours easily.) The deer starts at
full speed, making long leaps of from ten to
thirty feet. AT first he gains rapidly on the
Indian, but the latter follows, every now and
then utlering frightful yells, but never for
moment hating or losing the trail. The deer,
when out of sight, hats and looks back, but
soon his pursuer comes in sight, when he
bounds on with longer leaps than at first fin
ally he makes for water n spring or stream,
aud when he gets there halts and drinks all he
wants. Now there is no hope for him, for af-
Ter he drinks he cannot run so fast or leap so
far. Pretty soon the Indian comes in sight
again. while the tired deer rests moment,
but the tired hunter never halts to drink, not
if his mouth is as dry rs ashes, for by so
doing he not only loses time, but cannot run
so fast afterward
On he goes, never resting, either on the hill
or on the mountain. If the deer takes to the
top of the highest mountain, right on his track
the Apache follows. BY and by the Indian
see n blood stain on rock, where the deer has
stumbled and skinned his knee or struck his
nose. He knows now the race will soon be
ended, and runs faster than at first while the
deer loses ground every minute. When the
deer sees the Apache close upon him he stops
suddenly by rock or bush and turns. Some
times, as soon as he stops he drops down faint
ing, or, even dead from fatigue. If not dead
already when the Indian seizes him by the
head and hind legs, he makes but little resist
ancc, and is dispatched with the knife. The
hunter now cuts out II fine piece and eats it,
taking not moments rest for fear of getting
stiff, but puts the deer on his shoulders, or, if
too heavy, a part of it, placing the rest in a
secure place, and then trots back to his camp,
having travelled perhaps a hundred miles
without resting. The next day some one will
take his back track for the balance of the
game,
