Calling Attention to Home Missions

Parson Cliff had an invalid wife and a
large family, but though some of his par
ishioners were well to do and respected
him highly, they were often in their zeal
for the heather forgetful Of their duty
nearer home.
The old meeting house was badly in want
of repair, and the minister's family was
in need of many things; but as the house
could not complain and the family did not.
the Burmese Cleaners" society absorbed
all the zeal that was available in the par
ish, as well as most of the funds that could
be raised.
They're only thoughtless, my dear, "
the minister patiently explained TO his wife
one day. But think perhaps it will do
no harm, now that matters have gone so
far, for me TO give them little hint next
Sabbath as 10 the way things stand /

The Man with the Wax Face.

A French medical journal tells of re-
markable surgical operation performed
upon a certain Joseph Moreau, soldier in
the army of the north. whose eyes, nose,
teeth and lower jaw and, indeed, his whole
face was shot away by shell in the battle
Of Bapaume, January, 1871 Although he
was left on the field for dead, he managed
to stagger to a neighboring village, where
he was cared for by the doctors. Later on
one of the most distinguished surgeons
of the day applied to the head, which was
left almost without human semblance, a
wax mask so cleverly adapted TO the
healthy portion of the skin as to appear
quite continuous with it. This mask, as
the years have passed, has become firmly
attached to the head, the skin having
grown around the edges, and has permit
ted the unfortunate wearer to appear less
an object of repulsion to his fellow men.
Moreau has got quite used to breathing
through the false nostrils, and by the help
of an artificial jaw worked by portion of
the original bone, he is able to eat comfort
ably and masticate the toughest kind OF
food.
His voice has regained its natural quail
ty and the sense OF smell has come back to
him with even more than natural acute
ness. OF course he sees nothing through
the false eyes which look out from his
waxen features with CLASSY stare, but it
is long since he has acquired the peace of
mind with which blind men are so often
blessed, and in all the canton Of Landredies.

or one more fond of telling and listening to

The AFTERGlOW.

The mist has crept up from the fen
The cold gray mist tina, shroues the earth;
The shadows deepen in the glen;
The day is done-the dayof mirth-
The twilight fails. and faint and low
Is heard the night birds lonely song
That sobs symphony OF woe,
Sobs and bewails the night along.
Then. az we sigh for vanished day
And watch the darkness settle slow,
Through the dense shadows darts ray,
A flush-it Is the afterglow!
Ths gathering night rolls sullen back
AS the pale flashes come and go.
As follows close on evenings track
The glory of the aftergiow!
So. when the world seems dark and dreaf,
And Fates no more their gifts bestow,
Perchance brighter day is near,
Perchance-who knows?-the afterglowi

The heroine of the play may be OBJ
served in the center of the stage at all
times. That is how you know she is the
star. She appears first as lowly girl in
ginghan dress and diamond ring. In
this garb she is betrayed and ruthlessly
jollied into bogus marriage with low,
coarse man, who laughs hoarsely, spurns
her from him, speaks coarsely through
his hat and goes away.
She then resolves to become an heiress.
Her father dies on the stage, losing his
life and his artificial whiskers at the
same time. His death leaves her
wealthy, as her father, though poor, has
invented machine for boring holes in
macaroni, thus reducing the cost of its
production over IS per cent, and so the
girl, with entirely new clothing and a
desire for revenge, goes abroad and ac-
quires the French language.
When she returns she goes to work
Systematically to ruin the man who SO
ruthlessly jolted her affections and then
went elsewhere. She goes into the stock
market and by means of a cheap boy,
who knows how to buy in such way as
to make money and yet ruin her old
paramour, she has inside of a few
weeks shaken Wall street SO that it has
to be replumbed throughout, and then
she gets the job of doing it herself.
Toward the close of the play she gets
ready for the denouement. If | ever
write another play shall by all means
have denouement. did not think of it
before, but it is certainly good thing.
All along through the play she is get
ting ready and issuing invitations for
this denouement. 1t is very well attend
ed, indeed, and passes off pleasantly.
For the denouement she changes her
dress, appearing in scarlet plush cloak
which envelops her entirely. When she
gets ready to forbid the wedding of her
old and tough lover, who has made az
rangements to marry stoop shouldered
heiress whose family extends back
among the Ptolemys, she throws this
cloak aside as boy would cast aside his
garments before going in swimming,
and stands before him dressed as she
was when he so basely wooed and then
deserted her
l hate a man who will do that and
then brag about it. A man who will
basely deceive girl that way and then
laugh about it ought to be written up in
the papers, and Twas glad to see that the
play turned out that way. always like
to see play like that. 1t elevates me.
One man was killed in the play, but it
was not so sickening as some deaths are
on the stage. Icould have made it more
sickening for twenty-five dollars.
1t is the only weak place in the play.

ENGLAND's DESERTED FARMS.

Lord Salisbury's recent speech in
which he stated that agriculture had
rapidly declined in that country since
the adoption of free trade is of interest
in this country in more ways than one.
In the first place it shows that the same
influences are at work as in the new, and
in the next place it demonstrates the
fallacy of tire arguments presented by
our free trade friends to show that New
England's abandoned farms were to be
ascribed to the influence of the tariff. 1t
is a fact that the abandonment of the ru.
raj districts and the depreciation of az
riculture have become more serious in
England than in this country.
1t is stated that the desertion of the
country and crowding into the cities in
England have grown so alarming that
Parliament is investigating it and seek
ing to supply some remedy. A society
has also been formed, called the Rural
Laborers' League, with the purpose of
changing the current of population to-
ward the country again. Investigation
shows that agriculture has almost come
to a standstill in some of the countries
of England from an inability to get farm
labOrers. Lands have also deprecated
in value from twenty to seventy-five per
cent, and many families that depended
upon the renta, of estates have found
themselves near to poverty. This is the
undisputed situation in England to-day.
In Vermont and the other New En-
gland States, on the other hand, the
number of vacant farms is rapidly being
diminished through the efforts of the va
rious State Boards of Agriculture and
that under the operation of protective
tariff. In the matter of abandoned
farms therefore New England seems to
he better of than Old England.-Frst

Commodore Vanderbilt was the

ever known. He made about million
and half year for every year he lived,

closed his business day at o'clock, and
there never was any business so import
ant that he would give it any attention
after that hour. He drove in the after
noon his fast horses, and devoted the
evening absolutely to recreation and
Measurable amusements. He always
claimed that his judgment was very
much better and his success largely due
