HOW HE HUNDRED HIS WIFE.

lived once near poor family, an
Irish laborer, with very industri-
GUS wife. He married a widow with
one little girl. He was big, red
haired, loose jointed and awkward.
She was very small, blaek~baired
and brisk as a bee. l frequently
heard the most violent alterations,
and evidently something more, in-
side the house. AS the weather
came on warm we would stand in
our house and watch her whip him,
for she did not close doors or pull
down curtains to thrash bin in the
liveliest sort of way I; and he would
blubber and cry and run around,
with her clinging to his hair and
,lawing at bis shoulders, reminding
ne of bee trying to light on rests
We mule bat never once did he
'aise finger to resist her. The
Door, big, good,hearted fellow was
oily and jovial, and when he got his
,ay he drank it up with his com
,anions, and the little woman chas-
ised him for not bringing it home.
said to him one day:
what in the world do you mean
" letting that mite of a woman
make you cry that way y
He winked knowingly, and step
ling closer, he whispered Lord,
am not crying; she couldn't hurt
ne. | am only making believe, just
o humor her. She likes it, you
,now.'
Men do love to humor women

AN ARKANSAS SNAKE cHARMER

Union County, (Ark.) Times.
HilIsboro can boast of the snakiest
man of the age. One Mr.. Black,
who has bas been residing in that
community during the present year,
exhibits a control and influence over
the reptile family astonishingly mys~
terious. In the woods, creeks, or
wherever be finds a snake,
it matters not of what type
Of deadly poison and venom it may
be, be succeeds in capturing it alive
and suffering 40 little from the clasp
If its fangs as if it we're an ordinary
pin scratch. He handles and fon
dies them about his person with IS
much indifference as if they were so
many harmless toys. He will allow
the largest rattle snake to deliberate
ly strike and bury bis fangs in bis
flesh and apparently suffer no incon-
venience or serious consequences
| from the tragic risk. By a certain
weed or growth of vegetation he
claims to destroy the effect of the
bite. When bitten, he chews and
swallows the juice of the weed
which acts like a charm.

SELF RELIANCE,

There is nothing 80 essential to
the formation of true manhood and
character al self reliance. n
Il develops and strengthens all the
nobler and better parts of mans ma
ture, causing him to feel that if he
would achieve any success, or reach
any points of honor or distinction,
there must be mea ure of self as
sertion, and not looking outside to
others for assistance. 1t has bean
noticed. that when a person is rear
ed with every wish grstified, every
pleasure and privilege enjoyed, it is
very seldom indeed, that such one
ever makes any mark, or even as
pires to any heights of attainment in
life. There does not seem to be any
sense 10 this need and importance of
close application and zeal. Bnt on
the other hand the whole time and
thoughts seem to be occupied with
idleness, frivolity and amusement.
From all appearances, never think
ing, or even dreaming that wealth
and luxury can so easily take to
themselves wings and fly away,
leaving one who has never known
the want of anything, and who has
always had some one to lean upon,
helpless and despairing. Let US
take a person who has been brought |
up around the scenes of poverty and
want; who has to struggle with the
trials and bardships of life, depend
ing always upon his own strength
and ability, nobly overcoming all
difficulties and disadvantages that
may be in the way of his progress
and success. Such one presses
forward in the great battle of life,
bravely determined to win, and ever
relying on his own knowledge, skill
and powers.
For one who wishes to cultivate a
spirit of self reliance, there are many
things against which he will have to
guard. He who would make him
self great and noble must lay aside
all imitation, and be bis true and
natural self.
Though one may be greatly aided
and encouraged by the noble deeds
and actions of others, still one should
not follow in their footsteps ; but
every man has an independent and
separate mission in life to fill, so that
no two persons can act and live the
same life. The surroundings and
of every ones life are
different. In the midst of all these
things, a man must be his own man
hold to his own views of right firm
ly. The man who maintains bis
own independence of character,
thought and action, though ut first
he may incur the worlds disapprov
al and scorn, yet when it sees that
he is resolute and determined to
press forward in the right course,
regardless of its opinion, finally wins
from it the highest respect. esteem
and admiration.
1t is perfectly natural for us to
uphold and elevate one who upholds
himself. When the world finds out
that it cannot crush q mao, then it
will elevate and respect him.
One must not be influenced by
fashion and example. We are con-
SANITY in danger of adopting and
following after the ideas and fancies.
Not having firmnesS and stability
enough to trust ourselves, we often
,uccumb to their power, and allow
others to think and act for US.
1t is only when We see man di~
vested of all foreign aid and infu-
,nce, that be is truly great and no.

NEVER TO BE FORGOTTEN OR FOR
GIVEN.

Our esteemed contemporary in
st. Louis, the Globe>Democrat,
is shocked at reference ito the
fraud which was perpetrated in 1876
TT to the dishonor of the great Re-
public" "Great heavens !" ex.
claims our st. Louis contemporary
are we never to hear the last of this
fraud 7 1t is undoubtedly true that
there was little irregularity in the
election of 1876; but if the Repub-
licans sinned in the matter, they af.
terward suffered, and it was cruel to
remind them of these things now
To remind the Republicans of this
fraud is no more cruel than it is to
remind forger of his forgery, u
burglar of his HOUSEKEEPING, or a
murderer of his bloodshed.
The crime of the Republicans will
never be forgotten, and it can never
be forgiven. Even when centuries
have cast over it the kindly veil of
time, it will still stand forth conspic-
uous and revolving in the records of
history. The names of its managers
will be Infamous, and they who prof
tied by it through Offices or honors
will be covered with shame in the
i'm partial annals of the world.
No sinners can be forgiven but
those who have repented and the
Republican patty has never repent
ed of the Electoral fraud by which
Hayes was put into office which
rightfully belonged to Mr.. Tilden.-

MARRY A WOMAN.

Don't marry dimples, nor ankles,
nor mouth, nor small waists, nor
Shippers, young man. These bits
and scraps of femininity are very
poor things to tie to. Marry the
true things -look after congeniaIity,
kindred, sympathy, disposition, and
if these be joined with social posi-
ton, or even filthy lucre, why, don't
let them stand in your way.
Get O woman not one of those
parlor automatoms that cit down just
so, thump on the piano, and 'dote'
on a whisper. Living statutes are
poor things to call into consultation.
Don't throw your time away on such
triAing things. No, don't do it,
young man Marry a sweet tenn
pered, sensible, healthy, womanly
weman. Study human nature.
Choose phrenolOgicaIly ; marry a
good face, sound mind in sound
body. And young man, if you are
what you should be-clean, temper
ate, industrious, intelligent, reIig>
ious, loving and manly-we can
predict for you bright and happy
future.
We appreciate accomplishments In
woman, and she who can fill the do
nestle sphere as wife, whose inter-
ests center in home, and whose love
and devotion thro Vs a charm around
all, is most truly accomplished.
Young man, marry dutiful anna

will have thoughtful, loving, hon.
ored wife, and lovable, refined wO-
man for your companion.
