DIR. TALMAGE DESCRIBES A GOOD
WOMAN.

You see hundreds Of men who are sue
cessful only because there is a reason at
home why they are successful. liar man
marry good, honest soul he makes his
fortune; il he marry n fool, the Lord
help him. The wife may be a silent
partner in the firm. There may be only
masculine voices down on the exchange,
but there often comes from the home
circle potential and elevating innu.
cnce. The woman Of Shunem, at whose
house the prophe, Elisha stopped, was
a great woman and the superior Of her
husband. lie, as far as I can UNDER
stand, was what we often find in our
day. a man Of large fortune and only z
modicum Of brains, intensely quiet, sit
ting a long while in the same place
without moving hand or foot I; if you
say yes responding yes IL you say no re-
spending no; eyes half shut, mouth
wide open, maintaining his position in
society only because he has large patri-
mony. His wife belonged to that class
Of people who need no name to distin-
guish them, no title Of princess or queen.
She was great in her hospitality. Jupi-
ter has the surname Of "Thc Hospita.
ble," and he was said to avenge the
wrongs Of strangers. Homer extolled
hospitality in his verse. The Arabs
were punciilious about it.

COMING HOME AT LAST.
Rr WILL cARLEroN.


ton the proposed removal Of the remains Of JOB
Howard Payne, author Of "iiome, Sweet Home
to this eountry.l
The banishment was oveFlong,
But u will soon be past;
The man who wrote Homes sweetest song
II coming home at last!
For years his poor abode was soen
In foreign lands alone,
Aud waves have thundeFed loud between
This singer aud his own.
But he will soon be journoying
To fricnda across the sea;
And grandcr than Of any king
Hts welcome here shalt be
He cannot come with cheerful brow,
And step Of conscious pride;
lie will not hear the tributes now
That fall on every side;
And when No tell him how his rich
Sad strains our hearts have sought,
lie cannot tell the price az which
The yeaIning words were bought.
And silently this man must come
unio the waiting throng--
Who gave q trumpet voice 10 Home,
And thrilled the world with songl
He wandered Ger the dreary earth,,
fcrgotien aud alone ..<,,.. !.
He who could teach Homes malchiess<l !.
we ~ nau one OF uta own.
Meath winters cloud and summers SUI,
Along the hiit road,
lie bore his great heart, and had none
To help him with the load;
Aud wheresoever in his round
lie went with weary tread,
HE sweet pathetic song he found
Had noated on ahead!
lilo heard the melodies IL made
Come pealing DER aud DER
From royal music bands that played
Before the palace door;
lie heard its gentle tones of love
From many u cottage creep,
When tender grooming mothers strove
To Elm. their babes 10 sleep;
AMI wheTesoc'er true love had birth
This thrilling song had flown;
But he who taught Homes matchless worth
Had no home uf his own.
The banishment was overlong.
But IL will soon be past:
The man who wrote Homes sweetest song
Shall have home at last!
And he shall rest where laureis wave
And fragrant grasses twine;
HE swce;iy kept and honored grave
shall be n sacred shrine.
And pilgrims with glad eyes grow dim
Will fondly bend above
The man who sung the triumph hymn
or earth's divinest love.

BANK LOCKS.

Speaking Of locks, says a New York
letter, one is led to notice the improve
-ment in their methods of protection,
one OF which is the "time lock-" This
is so constructed that an automatic
action is obtained. The interior Of the
lock contains spring and wheels like
a watch movement, and il is wound up
in the same manner and set so as TO
open at a regular time. There are sew.
eral patents OF this kind Of lock, which
is so popular that two thousand are in
use. They cost $500 apiece, but are
cheap even at that, when one considers
the vast amount Of money thus pro-
tected. Formerly cashiers have been
seized, bound and compelled by burg
lars to unlock the safe under fear of
death, but these time locks cannot be
opened until the fixed moment arrives.
Each manufacturer has a number of
expert workmen travelling for the pur-
pose Of examining and cleaning locks,
which should be done annually. The
fee for this service is $40. One of
those examiners informs me that he
has been thus employed three years,
and he recently visited some OF the
most important banks Of this city. lie
is 4 matchmaker by trade, and consid-
ers these locks merely large Watches
He also informed me that there are a
dozen other men in the same itinerancy,
each Of whom averages 1850 examina.
tons year. The range Of travel to
which they are subjected includes the
entire area Of the Union, with most Of
ats territories, and hence this forms a
peculiar feature in the travelling COM
munity.

CHAPTER n.

A note from me brought Ned Williams
to my room that evening. II was ten
O'Clock before he left me, and if my
little Katie had seen the fervor with
which he kissed my hand at parting, /
think she might have had cause TO be
jealous, unless she knew, as | did, that
il was all on her account.
The next morning, bright and early,
| was closeted with Miss Deborah. The
maiden lady looked half distracted
when ! told her the result of our over
night debate, but | soon won her over
to my way Of thinking. She looked at
Katie, however, as she went singing
around the house, as il she had been a
natural phenomenon.
Katie's apple pie and dumplings were
the incest things imaginable, and Katie
herself, with the fun OF her eyes little
dimmed and softened by touch ofpen-
siveness, was very agreeable thing 70
look at, and began to think Ned vii.

Obituary.

Died: Lois Weary Muuson wife of
r. NJ. Richardson at her nome in
Morris on Saturday Dee. 10, 1888.
Lois Weary Munson was born in
Cooker, Maine, Aug. 2nd 1881. She
came to minnesota in 1850 and on
May 10Th in the following year was
married to Reuben NJ. Richardson.
Mr.. and Mrs. Richardson made their
home until 1856 at Sank Rapids when
they moved to Richmond. Here they
remained until the Indian outbreak
when they moved to st. Cloud, MAX
ing their home there until 1869 when
they came TO Stevens county, where
they have since resided. They be-
long to that class of sturdy pioneers to
whom Minnesota owes its develop
ment. Ia Stevens county they were
among the very earliest settlers and
subsequent to pioneer life. The tami-
" is widely known and have Very

Minnesota Tribune: The west want
more sheep. Minnesota to-day has
not hall the quantity there shoaid be,
nor half the quantity there would have
been if there had not been such mui-
tiplicity of miserable, worthless, ac-
cursed sheep-killing dogs, whose mas
ters have in the past had suite ient
power to control the Legislature. But
dogs and all other enemies of the
sheep have not prevented the growing
of wool from being success. The
fact is wool growers do not fail because
the growth Of the golden fleece and
the increase is as perpetual as the sun.
1t matters not how dark the night is,
the wool continues to grow, and il
matters not how the wind blows or
how it may storm, CESSATION is never
longer than lao days. The lambs will
average one-half females, and often
twins, and they breed the next year,
making adouble compound-a perpet-
ual growth, and 40 less. Everything
that does not go into the market goes
back to enrich the pastures. and
though the flock master may be sick
it does not stop the growth of the
lambs. Not 50 with other business.
The mechanic or the man who works
for salary has nothing to grow while
he sleepsI when his labor ceases his
income stops, sand his expenses are
perpetual. 1t is true there are expen.
ses attending sheep, but under the
most unfavnrahle circumstances,
where they can live In naa'''--
autnno--. -..rS IL
..r ana IN yards and stables in
winter on hay and grain and roots
the meat of the wethers will pay 9
large share of all expenses without
drawing to any great extent on the
wool or the increase of the ewes
Hence it is like q perpetual stream
flowing into q basin !! It ii only qties.
ton of time about filling it to over
flowing. Dogs or no dogs, there j.
no one branch of industry either in
Minnesota Or Dakota, that will pay az
well as wool growing.

Very often the good spirits and the
bad meet. They have n struggle to-
gether. How sad it is when the evil
conquer; how beautiful when the good
prevail! Atthis Christmas time com
memorative of that event over which
the angels sang their sweet song OF
peace on EARTH" let US drive away
all the evil Envy, malice,
and all uncharitab!eness'-and let us
welcome and cultivate cheerfulness,
sympathy and kindness.
You agree with me now in the exis-
teuce of good spirits and bad ones.
May we be enabled to close the door of
our hearts against the bad; but know,
honor, and cultivate acquaintance
with the good! ,..

Edgerton Enterprise: We under
stand that petitions are being extern
sively circulated throughout the State
petitioning the governor to call an ex-
ira session of the legislature to secure
a regulating law for wheat grading,
and controlling railroad companies.
The movement is eminently o far

BY that class. The governor Is said to
be In sympathy, and will act in the
matter when a sufficient showing is
brought to bear. That the idea is an
excellent one is very apparent.

Opinion Of the Press.

Eli Perkins the champion-of the
world will be i'll Phoenix Hall on Jau-
uary 14th. We copy few testimo-
nauls to which we understand Mr..
Perkins points with great deal of
pride:
When Eli Perkins delivered his
lecture in the Illinois House OF Repre-
hensibles, there was great rush,
hundreds of people left the building,
and they said ifhe had repeated it the
next night they would have left the
city.-Chicago Times.
The New York Tribune pays and
punctuates the following high tribute
to the distinguished orator:
George Peek an Incorporate editor
from Milwaukee fell over the gallery
last night while Eli Perkins was
humorously featuring in beastly
state of intoXication.
Mr. Reecher, an author quite well
known in Brooklyn, thus writes to the
London Times in regard to Mr.. Perk
ms eloquence:
Words cannot describe the impress
i've sight. How sublime! to see Mr..
Perkins standing perfectly erect, with
one hand Oh his broad, massive, thick
skull talking to the educated classes
to see the great orator declaiming
perfectly unmoved, while streams OF
people got up and went out! How
grand a spectacle, as joke after joke
fell from the eloquent lips of this
Cicero of orators, to watch the enthusi-
astic crowds arising majestically as
one man and waving their hands as
they DANGEROUSLY demanded their
money back at the boX-otfice:
Says the genial editor of the Congress
ional Globe:
We never, but once, experienced
more real genuine pleasure than when
this eloquent man (Mr. PerkinS)
closed his remarks. That occasion
| was when we won the affections of Il
beautiful young lady, and gained d
mother-in-IaW-and then saw that
mother-in-law sweetly and serenely
pass away.
Z. Sill Perkins distributes six
dollar Chrome to all who remain to
the end of the lecture. Parties of six
who sit the lecture out will be given
a house and lot.

For Il considerable tirae the hope
has been warranted that the principle
of vaccination might soon be into
practice in combating various diseases
Of mankind besides smallpox. The
report now comes "vaccinatedn with
he virtus of yellow fever by DR..
Domingos Freire, who lately discov-
cred the germs peculiar to this maIa-
dy. The strength of the virtus was
reduced by successive civilizations in
gelatine, snd the material derived
from the sixth generation was used
for the NEGOTIATIONS. The inoculated
individuals were attacked with a
mild form Of symptoms characters
tic of yellow fever. Inoculated guinea
pigs and rabbits had the mild symp-
toms, and were subsequently proof
against the disease in any degree of
virulence.

\ study of Nesta in the light OF
present knowledge leads prof. w. NJ.
Harrington, of Ann Arbor, to infer
that this body, the largest Of the
minor planets or asteroids, has q di-
ameter of more than 500 miles; that
lis power of rejecting light is like
that Of the moon, which it probably
resembles in lacking an appreciable
atmosphere and water; that TO account
ior observed Irregularities of its light
We may assume that it has very
rough surface and rotates on it's axes
the time of rotation being short; and
that what is true of Vesta is likely to
De true, with necessary changes, of
the other asteroids. This view of
Vesta's size greatly exceeds the es-
Inmates of other astronomers. 1t has
been supposed, in fact, that if all the
known asteroids-about 240 in num-
ber-were made into a single planet
its diameter would be less than 400
miles.
