Woman's Bewitching Laugh.

A woman has not natural grace
more becoming than sweet laugh. 1t
is like the sound of flutes on the water.
1t leaps from her heart in clear,
sparkling rill, and the heart that hears
it feels as if bathed in the cool, exhil-
arating spring. And so of the smile.
A beautiful smile is to the female
countenance what the sunbeam is to
the landscape. 1t tmbellishes an in
ferior face, and redeems an ugly one.
A smile, however, should not become
habitual, or insipidity is the result;
nor should. the mouth break into
smile on one side, the other remaining
passive and unmoved, for this imparts
an air of deceit and grotesqueness to
the face. A disagreeable laugh or smile
distorts the lines of beauty, and is
more repulsive than a frown. There
are many kinds of smiles, each having
a distinctive character; some announce
goodness and sweetness; others betray
sarcasm, bitterness and pride; some
soften the countenance by their lam
gushing tenderness; others brighten
it by their brilliant and spiritual vi
vacity. Gazing and posing before
mirror can not aid in acquiring beau
tiful smiles half so well as to turn the
gaze inward, to watch that the heart
keeps unsulied from the reflection of
evil, and is illumined and beautiied
by all sweet thoughts. N T. Ledger.

Merely a Deep Ditch.

We generally form our notions of an
unseen thing by our ideas of its im-
portance. We were greatly surprised
by the insignificant appearance of the
Suez Canal. 1t had the appearance Of
a ditch rather than mighty artery
for the worlds trade. One great ship
almost filled it from side to side, and
plowed the mud from it's bottom with
her hugh screws, and washed her banks
with her swell. Even the wide sidings,
where we had to await other ships on
meeting, were SO narrow that the YES
sells almost touched. The prism of the
land is greatly changed, and dredging
is constantly necessary. 1t was
queer sight the trains of camels squat
ted along the bank to be loaded with
the silt taken from the bed, and then
climbing the steep bank to drop their
sandy loads on the desert at the side.

RELIGIOUS AND EDUCATIONAL.

The pious man and the atheist al
ways talk of religion; the one speaks
of what he loves, and the other of what
he fears. Taylor.
AS the principle of love is the
main principle in the heart of the real
Christian, so the labor of love is the
main business of the Christian life
Jonathan Edwards.
L can not imagine how man who
thinks at all about himself, and yet
refuses to hear any thing about God,
can endure life without WEAKNESS and
self-abhorrence. Bismarck
Don't forget that the great Father
of all has had infinite trouble with you.
Quite probably you have been quite as
refractory, ungrateful and disobedient
to Him as any child you have has been
to you. Let this thought temper your
anger, and make you wise. You direct
complex human soul.
"A devout woman once wrote this:
'1n my own family try to be as little
In the way as possible, satisfied with
every thing, and never to believe for a
moment that one means unkindly to-
ward me. If people are friendly and
kind to me, Ienjoy it; if they neglect
me, or leave me, I am always happy
alone. 1t all tends to my one aim, for
getfulness of self, in order to please
God"
Truth is one of the fairest attrib-
utes of the Deity. 1t is the boundary
which separates vice from virtue-the
line which divides Heaven from hell.
1t is the chain which binds the man of
integrity to the throne of God; and,
like the God to whose throne it binds
him, till this chain is dissolved his
word may be relied on. Suspended on
this, your property, your reputation,
your life, are SAFE Christian at Work.

was once addressed by an ignorant

he can not be great power for good

That night the pistol. with powder
shot and percussion caps, was snugly
slowed away under the planks. The
next few days were rainy, and when
the boys again met to examine thei1
possessions, they found their property
greatly damaged.
THE powders just good for nothing,
Franz declared. greatly disguised;
land the metal is corroded; here we
haven't fired a shot, and our pistol s
ruined"
Glad of it" Leo boldly cried;
we've had precious little fun since
we've owned it."
The truth is boys" said John,
''our consciences haven't been q ute
easy. Let's 60 over to the common
and make an end of the whole thing:'
The others easily assented, anxious
to rid themselves of their troublesome
property. The powder, shot and per-
cussion caps were quietly dropped in
to the pond. but the pistol received
severer treatment; each boy success
sively tried his strength upon it with a
heavy stone, and the fragments were
left, a monument Of blighted hopes.

John parted from the boys with
merry laugh, but his heart was heavy.
They haven't lied outright he re-
fected. Can I ever atone for these
weeks of deception? Shall l ever be
happy again?" he asked himself ~

Mr.. Carter was grieved and shocked,

begets another. Ask Yourself: Is
this rightP' and turn from wrong
course with decision. The world is in
need of honest and true men. and
they are the worlds best heroes"
The history of the pistol is fresh in
Johns mind to-day, and he would
say to the thoughtless lad, beware of
the first way ward act; value the SIM
pie but grand principles of honesty
and truth; be a hero in the temper of
your mind. and your life will be

THE PAWN-SHOP MANIA.
Pathetic Story of an Infatuated Young
Dakota LAWYER.

Fatnetlc story OF an Infatuated SOung
Dakota Lawyer.
Reading an article the other day on
the evil of the pawn-shops in our cities
reminded me of young friend, a brill
liant young lawyer, son of one Of the
oldest families in Dakota, blessed with
beautiful wife and one son, a boy
His life was full of promise, which
gradually went to protest as he fell
under the deadly influence of the pawn
shop. In an evil, thoughtless hour,
his merry companions enticed him into
the lair of the destroyer, and scarcely
knowing what he did, he soaked a
bone-handled revolver, the gift of his
Sunday-scool teacher, for seven dol
lars. lit is only this once" he said
Alas! it was the taste of blood to the
tiger Again and again he fell, and
again and again he said: 1T is only
this once" Never was that madden
ing thirst to be allayed. 1t was not that
he wanted money; it was only the rest
less, maddening craving to pawn some
thing. Once he came to me with
blood-shot eyes and feverish lips.
Lend me your watch" he said.
For what?' Iasked. To pawn" he
said, hoarsely; Il know place where
l can get forty cents for it." mo, l
said, Il can not part with my watch,
but [ will give you twice forty cents. "
NO. no, no!' he fairly screamed, II
do not want any man S money. have
money!" and he showed me four or five
large disks of metal which in the
United States pass for dollars, "but l
must pawn something or | shall 60
mad, NADIA, ha?' My heart was
moved by his abject misery, and I re-
luctantly gave him my handmade
Waterbury gymnasium, thinking that
l could have the grindstone moved
into my study for my daily exercise.
He thanked me fiercely and was gone.
He got twenty cents on the watch and
then put up the ticket at another shop
for ten cents more. Day by day the
habit grew upon him. Night after
night his heart broken wife would sit
up embroidering Bayeaux tapestries by
the dim light of solitary tallow can
die, which tiickered low and ftfully in
its socket all night long, while he
loitered away the hours, held by the
cruel fascina alton of a pawn-shop. Often
his friends would find him prowling the
streets at night stark naked, with every
pocket full of money, having put up
his clothes in the glittering perdition
Of the pawn-shop. Once he so far for
got himself, in the delirium caused by
1 week of pawning, as to strike his
rail young wife with his clinched fist,
because while there wasn't crust of
bread in the house, and she and the
BOY had been for two days without
:ood. she refused to let him have her
ealskin cloak and diamond earrings
hat he mi ght hang them up in the de-
curing vortex of the abyssmal pawn
HOP. He never did it again. The in
ulted wife let him have it with the roll
ng-pin until general case of infam-
natory rheumatism would have felt
ike soothing ointment to him. At
asst, when he had put up every thing
le had in the world, he got on train
nd went down in Texas A train rob-
'er boarded the car, drew revolver
nd shot three balls into him. He put
p his hands and died. Bob Burdete,
u Chicago Journal.
