One Thought Of His Mother.

A distinguished public man of Indiana,
lately deceased, was engaged at the time of
his sudden death in writing "reminiscences
OF his life. He was narrating to his daugh-
ter, who was writing from his dictation, the
story of terrible temptation which assailed
him when quite youth. By attention to
business and correct department he had won
the implicit confidence of all who knew him.
This confidence was shown, when on one
occasion-before the days of rapid commu-
nication by means of railroad and telegraph
he was intrusted with 1000 to deliver
in the then far distant Cincinnati. Day
after day, on his long horseback rides, he
guarded his treasure with the most scrupu-
lous fidelity, without thought Of dishon-
esty. But he said, 4" there was moment,
a supreme and critical one, when the voice
of the tempter penetrated my ear. 1t was
the old tempter that sung in the ear of Eve.
1t was when | reached the crown of those
important hills that overlook the Ohio river,
when approaching Lawrenceburg from the
interior. The noble stream was the great
artery of commerce at that day, before a
railroad west OF Massachusetts, had been
built. What a gay spectacle it presented,
flashing in the bright sunlight, covered with
tiatboats with RATS, with gay painted steam
ers, ascending and descending, and trans
porting their passengers in brief time to the
Gulf of Mexico, the gateway to all parts of
the world. l had but to sell my horse and
go aboard one of these with my treasure,
and was absolutely beyond the reach of
pursuit. There were no telegraphs then
flashing intelligence by an agency more sub
tie than steam, and far outrunning it, no
extradition treaties requiring foreign gov
ernment to return the felon. The world
was before me, and at the age Of twenty-one,
with feeble ties connecting me with those
left behind, was in possession of fortune
for those early days. | recall the fact that
this thought was tenant of my mind for
moment, and for moment only Bless
God, it found no hospitable lodging there
any longer. Aud what think you were the
associate thoughts that came to my rescue
Away over rivers and mountains, a thousand
miles distant, in humble farmhouse, on
bench an aged mother reading to her boy
from the oracles of God" At this point his
voice suddenly choked, his emotions over
came him, he said to his daughter, We
will finish this at another time laid his
head back on his chair, and died almost in
stantly.-R. Heber NeictoH.

The Baby Is Dead.

"The baby is dead |" These words were
addressed to me by little hazel-eyed boy,
over whose curly head no more than four
summers had passed, as one bright morning
was passing small brown house on the
outskirts of large village. The little face
was looking out between the old brown
pickets of the fence, and his mind was evil
IDENTIFY trying to grasp some new and Won
derful idea. Death had entered his home,
and the baby, so loving and playful, he had
seen that morning lying cold and inanimate
in its little crib, and had been told that it
had gone to heaven; and there he stood in
the shadow of a rose-bush, thinking of
heaven and the baby i stroked his haxen
curls, and kissing his sweet face, asked him
if he were sorry baby was dead. "No," said
he with sigh, 81 not sorry betause she will
be warm up there when the told, told winter
tones again, and she won't be hungry any
more;" then he added, his face Frightening,
" and the angels will love her Just as well as
we do" What tale of poverty and suffer
ing his words unfolded 1t is a terrible
thing, such suffering that makes the child
grow old, and long for the shelter of the
grave that he may escape the pinching wants
of poverty Thank God, that in heaven the
poor shall be warmed, and fed, and clothed
Taking his hand l went with him into the
house and found the indication of his words
verified. In an old arm chair sat nearly
helpless man with his face buried in his
hands. heard him exclaim My Father
in heaven Surely thy ways are past find
ing outl" Our entrance aroused him, and
he looked up with such an expression of
helpless misery as made my heart ache In
one corner was little crib, in which lay the
baby robed for the grave, and over it was
bending the mother on whose face was set
the seal of consumption, and she too was
slowly and surely dying. The rooms were
neat and clean, and fragrant with flowers
gathered from the pretty yard, but almost de
void of furniture. | learned that one arti-
Gle after another had gone from their home
TO the auction rooms until the barest neces-
stiles alone remained, except few shelves
of choice books, which they once fondly
hoped was the nucleus of library, and with
which, even in their poverty they had not
the heart to part. Upon the walls were
few engravings, in inexpensive frames of
home make, and number of those pretty
triles for use or beauty, which add grace to
room, and were the work of the wife's
skilful fingers in those happy, prosperous

days, when they never dreamed that mis-
fortune was on their track. They told me
something of their sad story. The husband
was a mechanic, and by his labor had been
able to maintain his family in comfort but
two years previous he met with an accident
that made him cripple and an invalid !;
then the wife tried to support them by her
needle, but health and strength failed her,
and many time during the long winter
had they gone cold and supperless to bed.
The home they were striving TO make their
own, and had planted round with fruit trees
and Towering shrubs and creeping vines,
had passed into other hands, and that day
they were not only to lay the baby in her
little grave, but were to leave this dear
spot and remove to wretched place in a
distant part of the town. They had learned
to obey the command, BE still and know
that ! am God" for no murmurs escaped
their lips. In reply to a remark of mine,
the husband said, "The Holy One has laid
the hand of correction upon us, but he sent
with it his rod and staff, and they com
fort u.s." Such "a touching and beautiful
exhibition of trust in God never before
witnessed, and as left that humble abode |
lifted my heart in thankfulness to him for
the Christians hope.-Seiected.

derstanding and sympathy. I believe moth
ing can be more certain than the large pre-
dominance of happiness over unhappiness in
married life. | am not speaking Of tyran-
nical men, or women crushed under their
sway, but OF great and general misconcep-
tion, sentimental grievance. Practically
it may do no harm at all-theoretically it
does the greatest harm. The position as
signed to women is thus almost entirely
6cticious one. A mans wife is considered
TO be his dependent, fed and clothed by him
OF his free will and bounty and all the work
that she does in fulfillment of the natural
conditions Of their marriage is considered
as OF no account whatever in the matter
lie works, but she does not he tolls TO
maintain her, while she sits at home in ease
and leisure, and enjoys the fruits of his la
Dor, and gives him an ornamental compen-
sation in smiles and pleasantness. This is
the representation of married life which is
universally accepted. Servants have a right
to their wages, and to have it understood
that their work is honest and thorough
when it is so but wives must allow it to be
taken for granted that they do nothing
that their work is the merest trife, not worth
reckoning in the tale of human exertions.
Had it been necessary TO bring in stranger
to do the wife's work, that stranger would
have been highly paid, and very independ-
ent person indeed. What the
world does say when woman outside of the
bonds of marriage claims to be allowed to
work for her bread as best she can is, that
she ought to go back to her proper sphere,
which is home. But in that proper sphere,
and at her own individual work all credit is
taken from her, her exertions are denied,
her labor is undervalued.-Mrs. Oliphant

effect was electrical. One mother instantly

WOman's Grievance.

So far as | can see, the working-man's
wife who has to cook and clean, and wash
and mend, and do all the primitive services
of life for her family, has harder and more
constant work than her husband has and
rising upwards in the ranks of life, think
the same balance goes on, at least until that
level of wealth and leisure is reached at
which the fayorites of fortune, like the
lilies, toll not, neither do they spin. .
To talk of the great mass of working
women, the wives of the poorer and labor
ing classes, in pretty and poetical way as
the inspirers of toll, the CONSIDERS of care,
by whose smiles a man is stimulated to in
dustry and rewarded for his exertions, would
be too ridiculous for the most rigid the
orist. The whole compact Of
their married life is based upon this, that
she should do her work while he does his
and hers is the share which is never done"
| do not say word against the laws of ma
ture but ] object that, while this is the
case, the poor woman who works so hard is
considered as a passive object of her hus-
bands bounty, indebted to him for her liv-
ing, aud with no standing ground or posi-
tion of her own. House-keep-
ing is fine science, and there are some wo-
men who show real genius in it; but gen.
ius that makes everything easy is rare and
in general it is hard struggle to carry on
that smooth and seemingly easy routine of
existence which seen outside appears TO go
of itself. Try to let it go by itself for ever
so short time and you will find the differ
ence. This is the woman's share of the
work, in addition TO that perennial occupa-
ton, the nurture of her children, to whom
she very likely gives their earliest lessons as
well as the foundation of moral training
which tells most upon their after-lives. Her
day is full of multiplicity of tasks, some
greater, some smaller, but all Indispensable;
since without that guidance and supervision,
and regulation, life would be but chaos OF
accidents, and society could not exist at all.
Thus woman has not only certain unparal-
leled labors in her life TO which the man can
produce no balance on his side but she has
her work cut out for her in all the varieties
of existence. She is the drudge of humanity
in its uncivilized state, and in the very high
est artificial condition she carries with her
natural burdens which no one else can bear.
But for this she gets absolutely no credit at
ALL | am not complaining OF actual hard
ship. There are bad husbands in the world,
as there are bad wives but the number of
these domestic tyrants is small, and for
every man who breaks his wifes heart, and |
makes her life wretched, there are perhaps !
hundreds between whom and their welded |
there exist the most perfect un- !

To Sweeten Daily Life.

The one great sweetener of life, which is
within the reach of ALL is the most neglected !;
and that is spirituality, the sense that there
are other worlds than ours, and that our
be all and end all" is not here. Spirit
uality is nothing else than the sense Of an
abiding Providence, always near us, urging
us, guarding us. With it comes the COM
munion of spirits who have lived their life
here, and are now enjoying the endless life
in God The great saints are near us, and
that vast army of souls at peace, not known
by name in the calendar, but strong in their
love and helpful spirit for their brethren on
earth. If we would only drop our papers a
moment, to think little of these, to utter a
silent aspiration to heaven to commune with
the departed, life would be sweetened for
us. But we live as though there were no
God and nothing at all but this earth we
tread on, and this visible world we see If
we snatch hasty moment in the morning,
and another hasty moment at night TO bless
ourselves and mutter prayer or two, we
think we have cleared our accounts with
heaven for that day, and step out with an
easy conscience. Why, it was not debt
we owe it is pleasure and great help we
refuse ourselves. OF course, we cannot be
always on our knees nor does heaven ask
this of us. Almighty God has sent us into
this world to be men and women, pursuing
the avocation of men and women in an ear
nest, practical way. 1t is no sin to be
shrewd business man, very much engrossed
in your affairs, attending to them morning
noon and night. 1t is no sin even to be
sharp at bargain, provided you do no in-
justice. All this is good and necessary, but
it is i'll to stop thereto let business con-
sumo our thoughts wholly, so that we forget
God, forget our neighbor, forget even our
selves. That is the life that is not worth
living, where man converts himself into a
mere money-gathering machine.-C Catholic
Repielp
