THE PLEASURES OF SULKINESS.

At first thought the astute mind would
doubtless deny that sulkiness could be pro-
ductive of the fainest gleam of pleasure,
and believe rather than it is a condition
feplete with melancholy. if not with an
gulsh. But only he who feels it knows
Is it not pleasure to some minds to be
sure that they are making everybody in
the house uncomfortable, putting friend
and foe under constant, keeping CONVEX
sation at halt, answering in monosylla-
bic when they are expected to keep the
ball Is there not a malignant kind of sat
lsfaction to be derived from disappoint-
ing people of their most reasonable ex-
pectations, which only the sulky can ap-
preciate, being short in speech-but not
demonstrating thereby that brevity is the
soul Of wit-and long IN face, and grew
some OF aspect generally? Of course no
favors can be asked of body in this ge-
nial mood; one can not be requested to
run on errands, to lend ones property, or
to subscribe to charity; no liberties can
be taken with one under these circum-
stances. But on the other had, the sulky
soul may not smile at the most killing joke
ever cracked in his presence without
breaking the spell of his lofty state; and
although the best witticism of his life oc-
cur to him at this unfortunate period, he
must strangle it at its birth and bury it in
oblivion without benefit of publication,
the most golden treasures of thought must
remain unuttered, and the dignity of sul-
kiness must make amends to him for
pleasant freside chat and gossip. Still,
the sulky must find their profit in sulki-
ness, or they would speedily abandon its
service; they perhaps enjoy the return to
better state of mind everybody is SO
glad to have peace and normal state of
things restored that everybody becomes
lively and cheerful, and the victim him
which proves that sulkiness is a sort of
mental intoxicant. Moreover, the fact
that he is apt to retire into this impregna-
BILE fortress at the shortest notice, and
dIOuSC dSulOSpuCtlC ulSLuI UbuCCS La AAo
neighborhood whenever things displease
him, renders every one anxious to keep
him in good temper, makes his world in
awe of a being who can so isolate himself
and yet be happy. To thoroughly realize
the pleasures of sulkiness the household
should be small, composed perhaps of but
two members, so that the other may be
completely at the mercy of the sulker, and
have nobody to turn to for consolation
and relief, be all the more ready to con-
cede anything and everything, tender the
first overtures toward reconciliation, and
make it easy for him to return to amiability
and good society without loss of dignity.
Indeed, this coming to- as one might say,
is more painful than the revival from
swoon, and becomes difficult of accom-
plishment in proportion to the length of
the sulk. One can not drop down all at
once from this bleak and giddy height in
to pleasant valleys of everyday pleasan
tries, and to make the journey gracefully
by easy stages one needs to have travelled
the road often.

WEAK, TIRED, NERVOUS,

Means impure blood,and overwork or too
much strain on brain and body. The on
ly way to cure is to feed the nerves on
pure blood. Thousands of people certi-
fly that the best blood purifier, the best
nerve tonic and strength builder is Hoods
Sarsaparilla What it has done for 9th
ers it will also do for you-Hoods Cures.
Nervousness, loss of sleep, loss of ap-
petite and general debility all disappear
when Hoods Sarsaparilla is persistently
taken, and strong nerves, sweet sleep,
strong body, sharp appetite, and in a
word, health and happiness follow the use
of Hoods Sarsaparilla.
The strong point about Hoods Sarsapa-
rilla is that they are permanent, because
they start from the solid foundation of
purified, vitalized and enriched blood.

THEY ARE DEAD,
BY JENNETTE la FI.AsIB0Y.

There wasa man who never told lie
But he's dead;
Never said 1t wet when the weather was dry
Never said
He'd caught fish when when he hadn't caught one
Never said he'd done something that he hadn't
done,
Never scoded his wife, and never got mad
And wouldn't believe that the world was SO bad
A respecter of men, defender of woman,
Who believed the divine, and in that which was
human,
Meek as Moses-he never was understood
And the poor man died of beng too good
And he's dead.
There was woman who never had gossip I'd bit
She's dead, too:
VINO hated all scandal, nor listened to it:
She believed i'll mankind, took care OF her cat
Always turned a deaf ear to this story or that:
Never scoded her husband-she never had one;
No sluggard was she, but rose with the sun:
Never Whispered in meeting didn't care for bon
net,
Or all of the feathers that one could put on it;
Never sat with the choir, nor sang the wrong note;
Expressed no desire to lecture or vote;
For the poor soul was as deaf as post-asO dumb
You might have called forever and she wouldn't
have come.
And she's dead

BEAUTIFUL THINGS.
Beautiful faces are those that wear
1t matters little if dark fair
Whole souled honesty printed there.
Beautiful eyes those that show
Like crystal panes where hearth fires glow,
beautiful thoughts that burn below
Beautiful Fps are those whose words
Leap from the heart ike songs of birds,
Yet whose utterances prudence girds.
Beautiful hands those that do
Work that is earnest, and brave and true
Moment by moment, the long day through.
Beautiful feet are those that go
On kindly ministries to and fro
Down lowest ways, if God wills So
Beautiful shoulders are those that bear
c aseless burdens of homely care
With patient graces and daily prayer.
Beautiful lives are these that bless
Silent rivers of happiness,
Whose hidden fountains but few nav suess.
Beautiful twilight at set of sun,
Beautiful goal, with rare>w well won
Beautiful rest, with work well done
BE intfnl graves, where grasses creep,
When brown leaves fall, where drifts lie deer
Over rn-out hands-Oh! beautiful sleep!
