BUT ONE JOURNEY.

"When / was young man there
lived in our neighborhood farmer
who was usually reported to be a
very liberal man, and uncommoDly
upright in his dealings. When he
had any Of the produce Of his farm
to dispose Of, be made it an invari-
able rule to give good measure, or,
rather more than would be required
Of him. One Of his friends, observ-
ing him frequently doing 50, ques-
toned him as to why he did il; he
told him he gave too much, and said
it was to his disadvantage. Now,
mark the answer Of this excellent
man: God has permitted me but
one journey through the world, and
when | am gone / cannot return to
rectlfy Mistakes The old farmers

GOOD ADVICE.

Remember that every person, how
ever low, has rights and feelings. In
all contentious let peace be rather
your object, than triumph: value
triumph only as the means Of peace.
When you meet with neglect, let
it rouse you to exertion, instead Of
notifying your pride. Set about
lessening those defects which expose
you to neglect, and improve those
excellences which command atten-
tion and respect.
Find fault, when you must find
fault, in private, il possible; and
some time after the offense, rather
than at the time. The blamed are
less inclined TO resist, when they are
blamed without witnesses; both par
ties are calmer, and the accused
party is strnck with the forbearance
of the accuser, who has seen the
fault, and watched for q private and
proper time for mentioning it.--Syd.
sey Smith.

THE LOCOMOTIVE IN WINTER.

A locomotive cab in Winter is
dreary place.. 1t is bad in daytime.
but on Winter night, when the
snow flies fast, the locomotive cab is
a good place to keep out OF. Even
IN the day it is impossible to see any
thing If a snow storm prevails. The
rails run right up into the air. Moth.
ing can be seen ahead but Jump
ing-0ff place. The windows are fr0z-
en- up or covered with snow, and
from innumerable cracks and GREY.
ices around the floor where il joins
the boiler come draughts that bite
and sting. The engine caws like a
crow-haugh, haugh, now fast, now
slow, according as the drifts cover
the track or uncover it for brief
space, and when it strikes drift it
throws the snow in binding clouds
all over itself, just as the spray flies
over vessel shipping at sea. The
track is rough, for the frost has dis.
turbed it, and the engine Iurches
ahead, staggering to and fro like
drunken man.
There are few more impressive
spectacles in this world than q pow.
erful locomotive laboriDg through a
heavy snowstorm. To the observer
beside the track it looms up through
the gloom tremendous and awful.
The locomotive seems the embodi
ment OF the Death Angel, moving
swiftly and noiselessIy. The snow
has muffied the whir Of the rolling
friction of the wheels on the rails,
and the train glides by like the I'M
substantial pageant Of dream.
With its black breath, its shorts Of
fire, its hoarse voice, it is truly Apol.
lyon, the destroying angel, and the
man must be nDimpressible indeed
who does not feel a thrill at its adj,

THE VALUE OF PETITION.

A striking illustration of the value
of numerously signed petitions has
recently been afforded in Washing
ton. The name of Mr.. Buck, of
Kentucky, as Minister to Peru, was
sent to the Senate by the President
As Mr.. Buck had been unknown to
fame, frequent inquiries were made
concerning him. "Who is he and
where does he come from 2" were
questions asked on every side, and
no ONE seemed able to crafty the
public curiosity. Senator Beck
charged around the capitol and de-
clared with great emphasis that the
appointment was not acceptable to
the good Democrats of the Blue
Grass State, and that the President
had made a serious mistake in not
consulting the accredited representa-
tives of that peculiar people before
taking a step SO important. He said
that he had never heard of such
man, and rushed off to the Depart
ment to enter his solemn protest
against the appointment. At the
Department he was shown the rec
concentrations which influenced the
President in his action, and among
the ignatures to Mr.. Bucks petition
was that of Senator Beck himself.
1t turned out that Buck was a re-
sident of Maxwell, KY, Mr.. Beck's
own town, and that when his petit
ton was presented to the Senator
it received his signature as matter
of form. Nor is there anything ex-
traordinary or novel in this; it sim
ply shows the utter worthlessness Of
what Mr.. Cleveland sty les "self.soIic-
tied Petitions Signatures can be
secured to almost any paper that
will be passed around and doesn't
bind the signer to pay money. It is
said that for years it has been the
custom for many Senators and Rep
resentatives to sign without ques-
ton, often without looking at them,

the papers of applicants for Office.
It is also alleged that not few men
Of influence have an understanding
with the Departments that these
signatures to papers are to count
for nothing, and that when they real
~ take an interest in office-seekers,
they viii make personal application
for them. That petitions are taken
at their true value in the White
House and at the departments may
be inferred from the fact that one
applicant for an Office which he did
not get, had the names Of sixten
Senators and one hundred and forty
nine Representatives on his paper.
It has been offered il explsnation
of the fact that ffice-seekers backed
BY long petions find very little favor
from President Cleveland, that some
years ago, when Mr.. Cleveland was
mayor of Buffalo number of his
enemies organized conspiracy to
GUST HIM. One thing they did was
to draw up a petition requesting
him to resign. Knowing how good
natnred business men are in the
habit Of signing petitions, never
reading them, but signing whenever
asked, they took the petition around
to number Of Cleyeland's own
friends. Sure enough, they all put
their names down on being asked.
When the petition came to Mayor
Cleveland he was considerably sur
prised to find the names of many of
his best friends on the paper. He
suspected that there was mistake.
He sent for some Of his friends
whose names were on the petition,
and then he found that they had
been entirely ignorant of what they
were doing when they signed the
paper. That little incident clearly
proved to Mr.. Cleveland that numer-
ously signed petitions are of no value,
and it is alleged that this is the reas-
on why he relies less on long lists of
hackers than on his personalscrutiny
of the claims of an applicant for
Office Valley Virgi,siaa.

A WORD TO THE BOYS.

Ashamed of work, boys i-good,
hard, honest work Then am
ashamed that you know so little
of great men.
Open rold Roman history now,
and read of Cincinnatus. On the
day they wanted him dictator, where
did they find him = In the field
'ploughing.
What about Marcus GURUS, who
drove Pyrrhus out of Italy . Look
him up; you will find him busy on
the farm.
The great Cato you have surely
heard Of him---how he rose to alIthe
honors of the Roman state; yet he
was often seen at work in the fields
with his slaves.
Scipio Africanus, who conquered
Hannibal and won Carthage for
Rome, was not ashamed to labor on
his farm.
Lucretia, one of the noblest OF
Roman matrons, might have been
seen many day at work spinning
among her maidens.
Better even than the example Of
noble Romans in the advice Of the
wise man: Whatsoever thy hand
findeth to do, do it with thy might"
Better than this even are the beauti,
fnl New Testament words: Not
slothful in business; fervent in spir-
it; serving the Lord !"
There after hearing Of these in
stances you will surely he ashamed
not to work.

SELECTIONS.
VERY CLOSE MOUNTED.

"We're bound to be equal to you
men," said the Mason's wife; we
formed secret society of our own
last night"
Indeed said the worshipful
master, composedly; then | hope,
my dear, your project viii be sue
cessful. Is it benevolent society
or what %
"That's none of your business.
It's secret society, and we've sworn
by solemn oath not to divulge any
thing relating to it,"
Very good, my DEAR" observed
the worshipful master, returning to
his paper. Pm sure / do not wish
you to violate your oath.v
"It wouldn't matter if you did, /
wouldn't. You keep your secrets
close enough-and to think of that
stupid Mrs. Furbelow she could
recollect neither the grip OF sign. 1t
took us an hour to teach her. When
/ gave her the sign like this (suits
the action to the word) she would
make it in this way, ha ha! Her
stupidity would have been exasper-
ating If it had not been ridiculous,
and as for her learning the grip,
why, she would have it that it was
this way-give me your hand a
minute-there, she would have it
that way, while it was this way, and
the pass word, she couldn't keep it
in her memory for two minutes.
"Over and over again told her
it was Be just and tear not and she
would have it Swear not at ALL" or
DO unto others as you would be
done by ha! ha! we almost des-
paired of getting it in her head. But
we managed to make her under.
stand at last. Oh, yes, we are going
to have a f1ourishing society and we
can be as secret about it as you men
are about yours"
Then the lady went off to attend
to her household duties, and the
worshipful master hid his face be.
hind his paper and smiled.

During the year 1883 there were 0.568
failures in business in the United States

Failure is sorrowful business to any man
