of-the-way country sheet The author Of the
gem has been introduced to the reading world,
and perhaps, as in many instances, another mas
been starred along the rough high road which
leads to honor and wealth. Every day the
country is learning that poets, writer's, 90 not
live in the same city, Grub street.
Thus country newspapers offer wide held
for the cultivation of home talent. Sugges-
tons are received from subscribers in kindly
spirit by the editor, and he becomes through
that custodian of many precious secret. AS
matter of fact he has to be a kind OF sponge,
taking great deal in and requiring very
hard squeeze to bring anything out.
The power which good country newspaper
wields has never been estimated. 1t is a re-
cognized educator of the country masses, and
in times of civil commotion it's utterances are
carefully weighed. That power will never de-
part from it as long as it keeps a high stan
dard of morality, SO that it's pages can be
scanned without fear of moral faint by all who
read them Long may it's power continue un-
broken, and it's honor unsullied by contact
with rings or other corporate forces.
THE HABIT OF SAvING.-Children who
have little money ought to practice saving
something. Many boys and girls OF to-day
hardly know higher use for any money that
comes into their hands than spending it for
some foolish things as quickly as possible. To
such lesson in seIf-denial and economy is
very important AS goes the boys pennies
and dimes, so, very likely will 60 the mans
dollars and hundreds by and by. Without
having the spirit of a miser, the person accus-
toned to save has more pleasure in laying up
than spendthrift ever knows.
The way to keep money is to earn it fairly
and honestly Money so obtained is pretty
certain to abide with it's spossessor. But mon-
ey that is inherited, or that in any way comes
without fair and just equivalent, is almost
certain to 60 as it came. Theyoung man who
begins by saving few dollars month and
thriftily increases his store-every coin being
a representative Of good, solid work, honestly
and manfully done-stands better chance to
spend the last half of his life in afluence and
comfort, than he who, in his haste to become
rich, obtains money by dashng speculations,
or the devious means which abound in the
foggy region lying between fair dealing and
actual fraud. Among the wisest and most
thrifty men of wealth, the current proverb is,
money goes as it comes. Let the young make
note of this, and see that their money comes
fairly, that it may long abide with them.-Ef-
change.

THE VIoLIN.-Of all the musical instru-
ments the violin is the most enduring. Pian-
os wear out wind instruments get battered
and old-fashioued; the pipes of organs become
scattered, and the original construction is lost
sight of. All kinds of novelties are intro
duced into flutes, but the sturdy violin stands
on it's own merits. Age and use only improve
it, and instead of new ones commanding the
highest prices, as in the case with other inStru-
ments, it is the violins of the few Italian ma
kers of the last three centuries that command
fabulous prices. 1t is impossible to handle an
old violin without a feeling of veneration,
when one reflects on the number ofpeople who
have probably played on it, the weary hours it
has beguiled, the source of enjoyment 1t has
been. and how we'll it has been loved.
EyD Two recent paragraphs which have ap-
peared in the press furnish striking illustrations
of the uncertainty of riches. One is the case
of Joseph Woodwork of California, one OF the
owners of the Ophr mine, who was the first
millionaire on the Pacific coast, and who died
recently in destitute circumstances, caused by
mining speculations ; and the other was the
case Of a French countess under the OLD EN-
pire, whose husband, after the fall OF Napo-
leon. lost his fortune OF $500 600 in specuIa-
ton, and died of broken heart, whereupon
man for living. failed at it, went to the poor
house at the age of GA, remained there 30 years
and was recently buried at the age of ~ in the
potter's field.
SUNsHINE.-Many child goes astray, not
because there is want OF prayer or virtue III
the house, but simply because home lacks sun
Shine. A child needs smiles as much as flow
ers need sunbeams. Children look little be-
yond the present moment. IT thing pleases

are prone to avoid it. If home is the place
where faces are sour and words larSh anu
fault-fnding is ever in the ascendant, they Will
spend as many hours as possible elsewhere.
Let every father and mother, then, try to be
happy Let them look happy. Let them talk
to their children, especially the little ones, i'll
such way as to make them happy.
DULL BOYs.-Do not be discouraged. Slow
growth is often sure growth. Some minds
are like Norwegian pines-they are slow in
growth, but they are striking their roots deep.
Some of the greatest men have been dull boys.
Dryden and Swift were dull as boys. So was

Order or the Buried Alive,

~
/ The order Of the Buried Alive, in
Rome, the Convent of the Sepolte
Vive, is remnant of the Middle Ages
in the life to-day. The London Queen's
correspondent had the privilege Of an
entrance within, one after another, the
five iron doors, and Of talking with
the superior through the thick swath-
ing Of q wpolen veil; but ordinary
communication with the convent is
carried on through the barrel. which
fills an opening in the wall Over the
barrel is written: "Who will live
contented within these walls, let her
leave at the gate every earthly care"
You knock at the barrel, which turns
slowly around till it shows section

good Italian and cultivated intonation.
You hear the voice quite distinctly !;
but as if it were far, far away. She
is really separated from you only by
q slender slice Of wood, but she is alb
soutely invisible. Not the smallest
chink is visible between you and h:r.
