AN uNFoRrUNATE HUSBAND.

How many of cur best wives are fall
ing victims to the alcoholic habit recent
ly ? How sad to think that, MS husbands,
we will soon be left to wait and watch
and vigil through the long, weary night
for that one to return who promised up
on the nuptial day that ale would pro-
tect and love us! All, what a silent and
seductive foe TO the husband is rumI
How he creeps into the home circle and
saatches the wife in the full flush. and
bloom of womanhood, while the pale,
sad-eyed husband sits at the sewing-ma-
chine and barely makes enough to keep
the little:ones from want. 80
No one can fully realize but he who
has been there, so to speak, the terrible
shock that tie poor husband received on
the first evening that his wife came stag
perirg home. No one can tell how the
pain frozs his throbbing gizzard OF. how
he shuddered in the dlIkness and fl d

knew she got it up her nose. Alb, what
picture of woe We see before rs! There
in the solemn night, robed in a long,
plainly-constructed garment of puro
white, buttoned at the throat in iieRli-
gent manner, stands the unfortunate man
with bis bare, tall brow glist,ning in he

he holds in his hand, while on the front

WE CAN MAKE HOME HAPPY.

Though we may not change the cottage
For mansion tall and grand,
Or exchange little grass plot
For bcundless stretch Of land -
yaYct there's something brighter, nearer,
7 Than the wealth we'd thus command
Though we have no means to purchase
Costly pictures, rich and rnrej
Though we have no sllken hangings
For the walls so cold aud bare
We can hang them DER with garlands,
For flowers bloom everywhere.
We can always make home cheerful
II the right course we begin;
We can make its inmates happy
And their truest blessings win.
II will make the small room brighter
If we let the sunshine in.
When we gather round the iireside
When the evening hours are long,
We can blend cur hearts and voices
IN happy, social sohgj
We can guide some erring brother,
Lead him from the path of wrong.
We may fill-our home with music
Aud with sunshine brimming DER,
If against all dark intruders
We will firmly shut the door
Yet should evils shadows enter,
We must love each other more.
There are treasures for the lowly
Which the grandest fail to find
There's q chain Of sweet affection
Binding friends Of kindred mind.
We may reap the choicest blessings
From the poorest lot assigned.

THE n. Y. SUN.
NEW YORK, 1888.

More people have read THE sun during
the year Just now passing than ever before
since 1t was first printed. No other news
paper published ON this SHE of the earth has
been bought and read in any year by so many
men and women.
We are credtably informed that people
buy, read, and like The SUN for The follow
ing reasons, among others:
Because its news columns present in at
tIactiVe form and with the greatest possible
Iccuracy whatever has interest Tor human
kind the events, the deeds, and misdeeds, the
wisdom, the philosophy, the notable folly.
the solid sense, the Improving nonsense-all
the news OF the busiest world ut present re-
Vulving In space.
Because people have learned that In its re-
marks concerning persons and affairs The
Sun makes practice at telling them the eX-
act truth to the best of ability three hundred
and sixty-ive days in the year, before cleo
tion rs well as after, about the whales as
well rs the small fish, in the face of dissent MS
plainly and fearcssly as when supported by
general approval. TIE Sun has absolutely
no purposes to serve, rave the Information of
It's readers and the furtherance Of the com
mon good.
Because 1t is everybody's newspaper. No
man is SO humble that The SUN is indifferent
TO his welfare and his rights. No man, no
ssociation OF men, is powerful enough to be
exempt from the strict application of its
principles OF right and wrong.
Bee use in politics II has fought for dozen
years, without intermissiOn aud sometimes
almost hlOnc among newspapers, the nXnt
that has resulted in the recent overw he lining
popular verdict against kOhesonism and for
honest government. No matter what party
| is in power, The Sun stands ana will con
tinue to stand like rock for the interests of
the people against the ambition of bosses the
encroachments of monOlOlists. and the dis.
honest schemes of public robbers.
All this is what we are told almost daily
by our friends. One man holds that TIE
| SUN is the best rells iOus newspaper ever put
lished. because its Christianity is undiuted
| with cant. Another holds that It is the hes,
! Republican newspaper printed, because IL has
already whppe.l half of the rascals out OF
/ that party. and the proceedings against the
other half with undeminishcd vigar. A third
believes It TO be the best magazine OfgeneTaI
| literature in existence because its readers
| mi,s nothing worthy of notice that is current
| in the world of thought So every friend oi
] The SUN discovers one Of Its many sides that
| appeals with particular force to his individu
| al liking.
| lfyOu already knew TUE SUN, you will oh
serve that in 1883 il is little better than eveI
/ before. IL you do not already know TIL

Pension Frauds.
From st. Lonis RepnblIca,

The tricks and frauds practiced on SOL
diers' families by pension agents at
Washington are disgrace to the legal
profession to which these scamps belong,
and shame to the country. These frauds
are not on the pension Office, but on the
soldiers and soldiers families who are
made to believe they are entitled to pen
sions when they are not. The trick con-
sists in sending circulars to soldiers all
over the country informing them that
their names deserve to be on the pension
rolls, and that the agent at Washington
will have them placed their for $40. The
soldier sends the money to the agent
and that is the last of it. This fraud is
practiced on thousands of credulons VIC
Tins. and the business is a very profitable
one to the agents who conduet it. The
secretary of the interior has been com
PEELED TO debar from the privilege OF
practicing before the bureau number OF
these tricksters; but this will only partial
" remedy the evil. II is not the pension
bureau these fellowsldefraud, but ignorant
and crednlous soldiers and their widows
A few of their villanies will be brought to
light, but thousands of cases will never
be heard of. Washington city seems to
swarm with seoundrels who make theil
living by swindling either the government
or the citizens who have occasion to dc
business with it.

Two rich Polish landlords agreed each
to isolate two hens, two ducks and two
geese from the poultry yard, and allow
them TO multiply for fifteen years. Su-
perfluous male and MANNED female birds
could be sold, but the total sale was not
to exceed 10 per cent of the whole crop
at the close of fifteen years. At the end
of that term the possessor of the largest
flock was to get the smallest crop and 10.
900 rubles in cash, to be distributed among
charitable institutions. Upon settling the
bet short time ago, the loser had 1890
hens, $50 ducks and 276 geese, a total OF
2,696 birds. The winner had 1.094 hens.

An eastern genius has provided against
the blockade of railroad trains by snow
drifts by inventing torpedo which will
make snow plows more nseful. The in
ventien is called "Gunther's Torpedo
Snow Plow." 1t consists of apparatus to
be applied to locomotives by means of
which, when the locomotive is pushing
into snow bank. torpedo is exploded
against firing block, SO tnat snow
bank will be shattered. The engineer of
the locomotive has complete control OF
the firing, and, by successive explosions,
may advance through the thickest drifts.
