eagerly, “What is the matter?"

The bride had awakened about
nudiiight,_ and putting her handover her
husband it fell upon the Indianian’s face,
ant * the soft, warm touch aroused-him at
once. He did not understand it exactly,
though he did not dislike it, and in a mo
ment more Mrs. K., said ;—“ My dear
est husband, where have you been all this
while?”
“ Husband!” echoed the merchant, be
giuning to see, like Lord Tinsel, that he
had “ made a small mistake here“l am
nobody's husband. I reckon, my dear
madam, you're in the wrong bed.”
,I® the wrong bed —horror of horrors,
thought the bride—what would her liege
lord, what wjuld >the ourious world say ?
And Mrs. K., screamed terribly, and
sprang from her couch just as her com
pamon did 'the same. He was fully as
Ahch alarmed as she, and entreated her to
give, him time .and -he would leave the
apartment, although it was the one he had
engaged—he’d make oath to that.
Scream/ scream,' scream was the only
reply to this kindly proposition.
“My Hod, Madam, don’t yell so I you’ll

it s only a mistake. Have some thought
of the I dont want tphori

every moment toice
a patol-tbrust in his face by a jealous
husband, tanned, pale as (loath,
himself to h is fate.
Just at this juncture, the tbrong oat
side -presented .itaeif at the } door, and W

wrapped over her Ibrm and head, and the
Indiaaian in the middle of the room, en

Why Is Heaven so Attractive.
Among the numerous reasons which may
ho given for Heaven’s peculiar attractive
ness to every Christian heart, may be men
tioned the following;—
1. Because the saved in Heaverj, are ex
empt from all pains, and all trouble and
affliction.
2. Because the innumerable objects
there to be seen are vastly more beautiful
than any of earth.
3. Because a resurrection body will be
united to the soul of the believer, more
glorious by far than the present one.
4. Because the intellect, with all its
wondrous faculties, will be greatly strength
ened, enlarged and perfected. . , .
5. Because Heaven is a place of entire
freedom from immorality and vice, from
sin and temptation.
6. Because itis a of never-tiring
activity. *
7. Because it is a place of rest
and sWeet repose. * '
8. Because of its music, in whieh.there
is no discord, but the most enraptoring
melody. .
9. Because it is a region of love—pure,
intense and seraphic love.
10. Because the Christian there, shall
meet beloved friends that have gone be
fore, and welcome those who follow after.
11. Because the saved will engage in
the most pleasant and agreeable employ
ments. , • i v
-1 12. Because all taysteries will be clear
ed tip, and every problem.solved.
. 13. Because Heaven is a home a sacred
home, wliprethe social affections can be*
fully developed.
Because there will be a constant in
crease of koowledge, virtue, happiness and
holiness.
10. Because we can there mingle with
pafriarebs, apostles,, and the noble army
of martyrs of every age.
10- Because the redeemed will enjoy
the society of that order of beings, the
those elder brethren,; of ours, 'who
are possessed of such warm sympathies
and lofty attributes. -
17. Because there Is po night there,
but allis brightness unspeakable.
J.B. Because it is a Sabbath of devotion
al exccdses and boly worship.
19- Because God the Father is there.
20/ Because God the Son is there.
21. Because God the Spirit is there.
22. Because the blessedness of the
righteous in Heaven will be permanent,
will last forever and ever. —Boston Re

Think of the Poor.
Kind reader, the morning is cold, the
wind blows sharp and keen, and while yon
may be comfortably boused and warmly
clad, give a thought and perform an act
of charity for' the poor that surround
ypu. They are God's children, and must
be fed and clothed, for while it has pleas
ed Him to crown you witb plenty, and
place yon above the reach of want, ‘ tis
surely no crime for you to give a little to
your less fortunate neighbors.
T£ is fcrjie that we may not witness so
mnoh destitution this winter as we have
done In previous ones, for those manufac-
that suspended operations last fall,
havp most of.them resumed, thus giving
thousands of hard-working
mechanics, that last winter were the sub
jects of charity, and who filled to over
flowing, our soup houses and other benev
olent institutions; still we venjfcure to say
that within the sound of the State House
hell, there «£■ hupdteds of families that
to-day need ja helping hand- Perform
the part of the good Samaritan, and visit
the children of poverty in their lowly
administer to their Wants
'and necessities; for by’ these Kttle'actiiins
you will not only 'prevent much suffering
that would pthepwise occur, but would
be <»rry fh" put that goldeh rule-‘ < Do anto
others as' you wouSdhave others do to
you.” “ ; ".V

children on bits of-paper broqghtfrom shops on
dry goods, are preparations of copper and ar
xsenio—poisonous. Children should never be al
lowed to take them. The writer of the article
mentioned, states that two rooms In his father's
house were washed with A green solution; and
when these walls were swept, the sweeper al
ways complained of sickness, and of a coppery
taste in the mouth. Also, that a physician who
used to sit much in a room bong with green
paper, was always made siok by it, on remov
ing to another room be recovered. But whenever
he returned to ibis green room the; symtoms re
turned. Poisonous colors are often nsed to give
tint to candies and other notions 1 offered for
sale by the confectioners. Oreefi is hot the
only color .containing poison. Bine and yellow
are liable to the same charge. Uis said that
in a dress-making establishment, in Paris, the
young women employed in making some bcauti
ful green ball dresses were. t*ksn Suddenly ill.
The physician thought that by weariug theae
few dresses in a ball-room,poi*qn epough would
be detached from the color to occasion moat
dangerous consequences to the Company.
IS> The Cleveland Herald makes the follow
ing very just comments upon the righu of mar
ried woman:—Talk about a man having a
right to do what hewill with his own I A hus
band's property is hot-bls own. The wife is as
much entitled to it as he is She, if not direct
ly, at leaatindireotly, has been as influential in
accumulating" that property as the husband has,
and certainly has had if in her power, had she
so chosen, to have kept him a beggar all his
lift. IX the words nf cheer, when the horizon
looks dark; if the words of caution; when spec
ulation is rife; if the words of hope, when ca
lamity v comes ; if the words of prudence. when
prosperity smiles—could he mea|ored by dol
lars and cents, , every husband would lay the
balk of his fortune at the feet ef hie wife, «»»n
sot of naked justice, for her instruipentalitv in
shaping bis pecuniary destiny. ' Itisdown
r.ght cruelty to provide in profusiofi for a wife's
wants daring coverture, and—through thought
lessness or recklessness—leat her: at the hus
band's death in property. It is the height,of
meanness in a man who dies rich, 19 attempt to
hamper bis widow so that aha shall hot have an
abundance, and have it, too,sbsolntlly her own,
to do with it what she sees fit Married wo
men have tod few “ rights," while their hus
bands are living, and assuredly husbands should
nut to reach oat of their graves to control
their Widows. ’
