Things In General. Dress with the weather no matter how often clothing.

It Is a slur on the present to speak of "old fashioned honesty" of earlier days. You never knew a lazy man that did not have a good appetite and a square digestion. It takes something more than good clothes to make a gentleman he can be distinguished in any garb.

The average American done up in a bathing suit is not a pretty object. The love of home was a virtue especially cultivated by the anci-enui. In all ag-es handsome jewels have been a ready incentive to tempt people to crime. Boiled itarch Is much improved by the addition of a little salt or dissolved gum arable. But few soils are benefitted by plowing as deep as twelve inches.

The old practice of banking up celery plants as they grow is being abandoned. Moistened baking soda is the best application that can be made to burns. Ripe tomatoes, it is paid, will remove ink and other stains from white clothes. Swimming is a healthful recreation when properly carried out, as well as useful and necessary. When the digestive power is enfeebled the nutrition is degraded in every part.

Short basks are again revived on account of the panier drapery of overskirt which must be next to the belt. A lamp lifted suddenly, which contains but a poor quality of oil, is very apt to Blowing down a lamp chimney to extinguish the light is a frequent cause of explosion.

It is a singular fact that not one of the imperial Napoleons has died in France, or on French soil. Napoleon the founder of the family, died a prisoner on the British island of St.

Helena, in the South Atlantic ocean; his son, Napoleon died in Austria his nephew, Napoleon died an exile in England, and' his grand-nephew, the young man whom the French Imperialists hoped would one day rule France as Napoleon met his fate at the point of Zulu spears in South Africa. It is not hasty but seriously reading, meditating upon holy truths, that makes them profitable to the soul. It is not the bee's touching on the flowers that gathers honey, but her abiding for a time upon them, and drawing out the sweet. It is not he that reads most, but he that meditates most on Divine truth, that will prove the choicest, wisest, strongest Christian. Bishop Hall.

August 9, 1879-tf OUSG Tobacco and Tls best for me that I should hear SLOW BUT SCBE. BY K. K. W. How- on earth.

Simpson," said I the other day to a rural friend ot mine whom i was vlsittng "how on earth did a backward, diffident fellow like you ever manage tosa Vill your to a witty, saucy, sel noised woman like your wife?" I reallv was curious to know. Simmon was such a alow, sedate and his wife was such a lit tle firefly, that there always seemed to me something mnniiy incongruous in their union. -Simrjson made his tKual deliber ate pause before answering. "Well, I reekon' my friend is a Hoosia "I reckon it was queer 1 ever asked her, and the way it happened was queerer We had carried our clfliirs out in to the front yard, in order to smoke in trreater com fort and I now tilt ed mine back against a tree, knowing that the story that was brewing tu my friend's mind would not be over in a I condene it for the benefit of the readers who may not have as much leisure and tienee as I had "You see," be began slowly clear int his throat and crossin? his letrs "I was always rather soft -like about Susie, from the time I used to sit bv her iu school and work her sums. She hadn't a particle of head for fieures.

and I had. so we suited very well as long as school lasted and Susie, though she laughed at me more than any of the girls liked me a little, too for it isn human nature not to like the per son that works your sums. 1 know because that was atout all the way I had of maklne friends, when I was a boy, and I made a good many But when our school days were over most of them forgot, bat Susie never did. She was the prettiest and most popular girl in the country, and had no end of beaux, but she always had, God bless her! as bright a smile for slow Ben as any of them. 1 knew I wasn't as brisk and lively as the best of them, and when I saw that she didn't make any difference, it went right through ana through me, and I'd have died for her any minute; but I couldn't tell her so.

Seemed like I was slower and dumber with her than any body else. "For this rea-on I didn't often call On her or ask her company to parties and the like but wheh I did she was always so kind and pleas ant-like that I was happy for a month afterwards. "Well, there was a party one nt 'Souire Coon's and, as it wasn't far, and Susie would only have to be bored with me going and coming, I asked her to go with me. and she said and smiled as if it was the greatest treat in the world. "As the 'Souire's was only half a mile from Susie's home and there was a nice dry rath through the woods, we walked.

It was about the middle of October, and the path we took was heaped with dry leaves that made a pleasant rustle under our feet. A watery moon and a siim turnout of stars gave just light enough to make the tree trunks on either side of the path look like anything else but what they were. "The only remark I remember to have made on the way to the 'Souire's was that it was going to rain before morning, "and that I honed it would. I little thought how much reason I had to hope. "I don't recollect much about the imrtv.

except that I sat most of the "time in a particular corner and watched Susie as much as "When the party had broken up, ane we were started home, I no ticed that the sky was thickly clouded and the- pight dark. The 'Souire. who was sitting on the front porch smoking a late pipe called after us 'Better stay al niizht. Beniy, it's goin' to rain. But we thought not.

When we got into the woods, however, we began to tind out it was dark and no mistake. The farther we went the deeper became the darkness. I knew the path we had to follow, every crook and curve in it. But the carpet of dead leaves bothered me. I had to stop two or three times, and grope about on either side, to make sure that I was in the the right track and tha Jast time I found I was not in it, and what was worse, couldn't find it.

"I kept up the search as long as possible, dreading to tell Susie of the stupid blunder I had committed. But the truth had to come out at last and, as if to make matters really serious, it began to raia a dull pattering fall, that would probably hist till daylight, and Susie exposed to it. She tried to make a joke of it at first but, as the rain canw more and more steadily, she became frightened and nervous. I found her the test shelter I could at the roots of a great tree, but the rain reached her even there, Hhe had nothing round her but a light shawl for the evening had been unusually warm for the season and I knew she would be thoroughly chilled so, being very touh myself, and use to nil sorts of exposure, I just took off my coat and begged her to wrap it round her shoulders, hut she would hear to nothing of the sort, and hade me quite brisquely to put on my coat. But the rain increased, arid the night grew damper and coider.

I resolved to take matters into my own hands. Without saying a word I just wrapped the coat around her shoulders myself, and, for fear she wouldn't take it, I said, by way of apology, yon see, 'I'd give my life for you any minute, Susie, and it don't stand to reason I shouldn't give my "She kept as mute as a mouse whil I WA fixing the coat; but When I was done, she took my hand in both of hers and, says she, 1 1 think so very wulu m-, never tell me so before "Well uiv 'you know I'm rather slow of rech; and besio.es, 'Store than I can 'tell or youcn think of, I i sue.
