Reccllcr on Death.

"We come into the world crying, with 8
chorus Of groans; we go out of the world
singing, with Il chorus Of joy, and to die
is not half as painful as to be born. Old
men die as apples drop from the bough
they are ripe, therefore they fall. Those
that die by violence never know it. Death
is not dreadful n man suffers more
through one tooth than in dying with his
whole body. Men carry little pills in their
stomach with dyspepsia and indigestion,
and gulp oceans of hideous medicine, every
mouthful of which is worse than dying.
Now and then men die crazy. Now and
then men die seeing angels; they don't see
them. And now and then men die seeing
devils; they don't see them. And a ply
sician will tell you that the good and the
bad die about alike, and that men as a
rule go out of this life through a gate
which has oiled hinges
Cline morbid consideration of dying is
worse than the foolish, and to live as if one
expected TO die tomorrow is the greatest
folly in the world. The men that live
only in to-day are savages. We are told
to live as if we wanted to at once appear
before God What nonsense! wouldn't
want to appear before God as am when
just out of bed or when under the care of
a physician had taken an emetic; it is
common sense run mad to say this. What
I mean by being ready to die, is being
ready to live right, and the man that has
grace to live right need not be troubled
but what he will have grace to die right !"

The Chinese wood sawyers have sort

When Chinaman has taken a contract to

on the top of the pile in a peculiar position,
which informs all other Cinnamon that the
contract has been let and thus the owner
of the wood is kept free from the annoy
ance of having dozen Cinnamon a day

ly. If stood handle upward, which is
commonly the case, the top Of the um,
brella holds the moisture, owing to the
lining underneath the ring, and therefore
takes long time to dry, thus injuring
the silk or other fabric with which it is
covered. This is the prime cause Of the
top of the umbrella wearing out sooner
than the other part.
Umbrella cases, too, are responsible for
the rapid wear Of the silk. The constant
friction causes the tiny holes that appear
SO provokingly early. When not in use
leave the umbrella loose; when wet,
never leave it open to dry, as the tense
condition thus produced make the silk
stiff and then it soon will crack.

Strikes Gan Be Avoided

1t must not be supposed that all the
strikes that are taking place in the va
rious localities are by the knights Of
Labor, fer such Is not the case. The
order does not countenance strikes,
and Tries in every way to avoid any
conflict with legitimate capital, and il
the capitalists Of the country would
meet their men in a spirit of fairness
and discuss questions pertaining to
their interests frankly, there need be
no trouble Of any kind. Capital, as a
general thing, denies the right OF labor
to appoint a committee for the purpose
OF laying any real or supposed grievance
before them, but on the contrary as
sumo the position that they must be
the ones who are to say what the
wages shall be no matter how large the
profit that accrues from the results of
the labor performed. Manufacture
els, as a class, have no limit
to what they desire in the line of pro-
fits, and no matter how high they may
run they rarely raise the wages of the
employees. But let it come down to q
basis Of small profit, and how quickly
the wages ere reduced or the men laid
Off or the shop shut down. How are
men going to settle difficulties if they
cannot gain an audience with their en-
ployers; it the employer is satisfied
that the men have no cause for the de-
mands they make is it not an
easy matter to show them that
such is the case; laboring men are
not fools, they are willing at
all times to listen to reason and ouly
the repeated refusals Of their employ
ers TO treat with them impels them to
strike; then the cry goes out Of the in
justice Of the demands Of labor and ap-
peal to the ever generous public for
sympathy. tits notas much the inter-
est even Of the capitalists to keep clear
of all dissension as it is the laborer, and
to that end would it not be wise pol
icy to have frequent conferences with
the men SO that any grievance that
might exist on either side might be
fully discussed The trouble is that
men are not working in harmony; they
4.aye each other with suspicion and each
seems to be fearful that the one on the
other side is trying to take advantage
Of them. Such state Of affairs is all
wrong, and it is duty incumbent
upon the capitalists and workingmen
alike to do all in their power to avoid
conflict: let the employer appoint one
or two days once in three or six months
to hear complaints and adjust differ
ences; let honesty and candid frank
ness prevail, and rest assured in no
case will there be any strike. Conduct
business on strict business principles J;

WHAT rs THE USE.

What is the use Of this impetuous haste?
The end is certain. Let us take our time
And hoard the vital forces that we waste
Before our day has reached it's golden prime.
What is the use of rushing with spent breath
After old age, it's burrows, it's white hair?
Why need we hurry SO to welcome Death.
Or go half way. with hands stretched out to
Care?
There is no use. Dear hearts, If we but wait
All things will find us. Let us pause, I say.
We cannot go beyond the silent gate
That lies q short days journey down the
way.
So let us take our time in youths fair bowers !;
The summer season is SO brief at best,
Let US look on the stars and pluck the flowers.
And when our feet grow weary let us rest.
