A Plain Truth.

No man has a right to marry till, il
every human probability, assured thai
he can support family in his own sta
ton. Mere love or improvident matches
seldom turn out well; poverty comes
and there is so much self reproach OF
either side that gall is added to its bit
terness; their tempers are soured, and
they soon wish themselves unmarried
But when trials assail an attached, 8
reasonable pair, sorrow unites then
closer; the man, feeling how much de
ponds on him, never flags in his exertion
and often RECEIVERS the lost step; if not
there is still consolation in his wife's un
varying love-in her sweet, noiseles.
sacrifices In these uncertain times
there are few commercial men whc
have not met with reverses, and they
will often say:
Had it not been for those at home
should have blown my brains out;
could not have stood it."
Wife and childrenl They are beacon
to us in our troubled sea; we renew the
struggle when ready to sink beneath the
wave, and ut last are saved. AT the
worst, when all is blacI-when friends
are cool or reproachful-when the cruel
est doubts assail us-there is still one
who respects and loves us; at home we
are still dear.-New York Ledger.

His Audience.

A pretty story, which has, moreover,
the merit of being true, is told of GER
tain professional singer. He had beau
tiful tenor voice, of which he was apt to
take the best of care, so that when he
was crossing the Atlantic one summer
with party of friends, they were NOT
surprised to find that he disappeared
from view every evening at just about
the same time.
Afraid of the night air" said one,
with slight smile.
Afraid we'll ask him to sing, prob
ably" said another, but no one ques-
toned him, as he was known to be quite
immovable from his own way.
But when the last night on board
came, a delegation descended to his
stateroom to beg for song or two, and
discovered that he was not there. They
looked for him in vain, until at last the
captain, who had evidently kept the
secret as long as he could, said, pointing
in the direction of the engine room:
81 think you'll find him down there;
that's where he's gone every evening"
Sure enough, when the delegation ar
rived at the engine room, they heard the
sound of guitar and voice, and there,
lolling against the wall, was the recreant
tenor, singing his best for the delight of
the stokers, whom he had entertained
in this way for more than an hour every
evening during the voyage.-Youth's
Companion.

A Giant Horse.

There is in Detroit an equine thorough.
bred which is pronounced not only the
handsomest, but one OF the largest horses
in existence He is in truth giant, and
the veriest novice in horsehesh could moi
but view his size and beauty without q
certain feeling Of awe, This colossal
animal is years old and is u hands
high, weighing 1865 pounds. An ordi
nary sized man cuts but small figure
beside him. He is dark chestnut il
color, with superb name and tail. He il
owned by Richard Tregaskis. and car
trot in four minutes.
1t seems pity that there will be none
of his progeny. He was imported from
France by a Kentucky horse breeder
who paid $4,000 for him. When put in
the stud the animal became veritable
tiend, He would kick and bite on the
slightest proyocation, and no one could
do anything with him. He soon killed
one attendant and short time after an
other man fell II victim to the vicious
brute. The death of these two men
caused the owner to change the animal
into gelding, and with good effect, his
temper being greatly improved. Detroit
