If every ono in this world held ns high .111 opinion ol his own merit .n did Mr. Thomas Archer, and wcro rewarded hereafter in ac cordance, there would bo 110 room in heaven. Taking his own jirivato view of tlio matter, ho was generous and conscientious to a per fectly painful degree. Hut, unhappily, a good many people differed widely with him on this important point accusing him of meanness and penury in general, and of cer tain dishonest practice, toward his former em ployer, William Uevcrell, in particular, sim ply liecatHo when that gentleman suddenly becanio bankrupt for 110 visible cause, Mr. Archer, then acting as liis confidential clerk, was found to have tlio business all in liU own hands. l!ut to minds unprejudiced, there was in this fact no'proof whatever of anything underhanded. Matters wcro just a riflo complicated, and that was all. llesides, if thcro had been any trifling grounds for suspicion, they should have been swallowed up in adniiratioiiif his subsequent noble conduct. Instead of turning Mr. Dcv erell now old aud feeble into tho streets to beg or starve, as ho might have done, ho made him his porler at six dollars a week. This sum, enormous as it was, failed to B.at- sfy tho extravagant notions of tho obstinate old man. Ho complained of hard work and poverty, and niado himself so disagreeable altogether, that it is a wonder that Mr. Ar cher's patience had not long sinco given out. The conversation going on at present be tween the employer aud his porter will show how the gentle heart of the former was daily wounded by tho ingratitude, of tho latter. "So," said Mr. Archer, looking over his dc.-k, "you aro Into again, Devcrcll, aro you?" "Yc, sir," answered tho old man, humbly. 'My daughter is very ill, and I blayed a lit- tlo over my timo to mako her comfortable for the day. "Well," retorted Mr. Archer grimly, what has that to do with 1110 f I pay you for ten hours' work, and ten hours' work I am going to havo out of you or somo ono will get into trouble." Now, then, what does that card say?" pointing to a bit of dusty pasteboard hanging over tlio desk. Tlio card said and seemed to bo'mightily ashamed of itself, too that fines would be collected from tho sal aries of employees for various invisible) of fenses a very pretty and ingenious scheme of extortion. "It ways," continued Mr. Ar cher, "that you are to be lined for being late, lon'tit? Well, you aro fined twenty-five cents." Oh, sir," said Deverell anxiously, "will you not cxcuo mo this timo? If I am fined again this week I shall havo nothing left to buy mcdicino for my child." 'Now 1 vo got enough ol this whining, retorted tho other angrily ; "If you don't like tho place get another." 'I would gladly, if it wero posnblo. Hut who would tako me, old and worn out as I am?" "Well," answered Mr. Archer with 11 sigh, as if his patienco had at last given out under such an aggravation, "I'll glvo you a chance to find out. Step up to tho desk and get what's duo you fines deducted and clear out." "What!" cried Deverell In a trembling voice, "You cannot mean to dlsehargo me No, 110 1 Think, sir, wo should starve.'' "titarvo then," was tho unliable reply "Jenkins, just hand 1110 over four-fifty, will you ? Thero aro your wages ; now tako your- bclfolf." With theso words, jerking tho money to. ward him, Mr. Archer turned his back upon him. Tlio old man stood looking nt him a nilii uto with his hands extended In 1111 Involuii tary gesture of supplication j then with a sigh that sounded like a wail of grief, ho turned and went out, As tho door banged after him as viciously as if It shared tho opinion of itn owner, a young mini left ono 0 tho desks In tho room, and, npproachlugMr, Archer, saids "Father, what is tho matter with Mr. Dcv crcll?" "Matter? I dUch urged tho ungrateful old dog that's all," "Hut," bald tho other uneasily, " how will ho live? Ho is too old to get another place." "Don't know and don't euro" snapped Mr. Archer, "1 won't take him back, if that U what you're, driving at," "At least you will not object If I interest nyself In his behalf?" "Xo," was tho grudging reply. "Hut I shall thliik'ynu a fool for troubling yourself about him all tho same," "Wlicro docs ho live?'' asked tho son, dis regarding tho latter part of his father's an swer. "Don't know." Tho young man drew back'with an air of (appointment, and after a moment of hesi tation, returned thoughtfully to his desk. Meanwhile Y illiam Deverell plodded de eded through tho crowded streets towards is poor habitation, llending over a couch upon which lny a young girl hi a fitful slum- er, ho gar.cd sadly in tho pallid face. Ago and misfortuno nro very Napoleons for con quering fortitude, nnd a tear that ho could not repress started from his cyo and fell up on the 1 seek of tho sleeper. Awakened with a frightened stnrt, tho girl aroso upon her elbow and exclaimed: "Father I homo at this hour, and crying I What has happened?" "Tlio worst that could havo happened to , Evelyn. I havo lost my place. Great odl what will become of us now?" Tho daughter's lips quivered, but sho an swered brightly : "Hope for tho best, my father. You can easily get another situation." "What nro theso good for?" ho cried, ex tending his withered hands. "Who would hire them? None, none; wo must perish." Then tho woman, weak, sick, perhaps hopeless herself, drew tho aged head upon her breast, and, by tho power of her gcntlo sympathy, comforted him and renewed tho hope in his heart. "If it wcro only myself," ho muttered, "I should not care; but how will you bonblo to bear it ? Well, perhaps this is our darkest hour and daylight may bo near." With theso words ho put on his ragged cap again and went out upon his search for work. A. very natural law of trado is that if .1 thing is good for nothing it can neither bo sold or let to hire, hence William Devcrcll, being nearly unfit for labor, could not get it to do. Mcantiino their little money had long sinco been exhausted, nnd tho father nnd child wcro in actual want. Ono morning, a few days after his dis charge, William Deverell sat in his room, witli his faco buried in his hands, in the depths of despair. Tho apartment had been stripped of all its poor furniture, except the bed, to supply them with food, and there was no lira upon tho hearth, although tho.' day was bitter cold. The sick girl lay motionless with closed eyes, and ono looking into her wasted fea tures would havo thought that tho great here after had already set its stamp upon them. Hut tho low moan that escaped her lips told that life and suffering abode witli her yet. iVttho sound, the old man arose and approach ed tho bed-side. His daughter looked at him nnd Bmiled, oh ! such a weak, pitiful smile, and taking 0110 of his hands in her otva said : "Never mind, dear, tho worst has come and gone, and it will soon be all over ; aud then, oh ! my father, what shall harm us thero?" Tho wrcched man turned his eyes away from her pointed finger, as if ho dared not understand her meaning, and gazed wildly around the room. An old violin, too worth less to sell, still hung against tho wall, and as his cyo rested upon it, it brightened a little with renewed hope. "No, no I" lie cried you shall not lcavo me yet! See! I can play a little, and tins will support us until 1 can do belter." And, putting the instrument under his arm, ho left tho room. True to his kindly intentions, Henry Archer, the moral opposito of his grasping father, had excited him.-elf to discover tho whereabouts of tho discharged porter. Hut to search for 0110 as poor and unknown as ho among tho byways of this great city is a task that's next to hopeless and it was only by accident that ho camo upon him at last, with his vvliito head bowed over his violin, llaying for charity from tho passers-by. ahocked at his had appearance, tho goner- ous young man niado his way towards him with tho intention of offering him instant aid : out uolorc 110 couiu reacn mm inrougu the jostling crowd, tho old man had replaced his ragged cap, nnd was moving slowly away, .hollowing nun as rapnuy as 110 couiu, ho saw him cuter into an old building in a narrow side street, nnd without a moment's hesitation ha-deiied up tho rickety btairs after him. His knock brought no responso but a loud cry of distress from within. Act ing on tlio impul-o of the moment, ho push cd open the door and entered. Deverell was kneeling over the motionless body of his child, with an expression upon his aged features loo terribly to describe. rniiscd from his stupor by the young man's step, ho started up witli tho fury of a wild animal whoso young has been destroyed, crying: "You hero! then look at your heartless father's work and tako him word of what you Have seen. Oh ! sho is dead, and by tho Heaven above us. starved to death ! Then hugging both her thin hands to his breast, ho rocked himself to and fro in si lence. With tears of sympathy in his eyes, and feeling 110 shanio for them either, Henry Archer knelt by his side and gazed earnestly at tho rigid white faco lying upon tho pillow. .Suddenly ho sprang to his feet, exclaiming j "Courage, sir, sho is not dead, sho has only fainted. Seo! her lip trembles. Ho was right. In a moment more, with a painful sigh, sho opened her eyes and smil cd reassuringly nt her father. And he. though knowing that sho had been free from the troubles of her poor lifo for a better. hailed her return lo it with joy too deep for words," "Now, sir," said Henry, cheerfully "let 1110 tell you why I am hero. I havo been searching for you for weeks, becauso I feared pardon 1110 for saying it that you might havo .1 hard timo in getting nlong, nud I hoped to bo of servico to you, Let 1110 be gin by by" ho hesitated, and a blush spread over his honest young faco "by sup plying your necessities until such a timo as I can procure another and better situation Tako this, sir, for tho f resent, nnd bellov that it comes from ono who does not seek to insult you, but to bo your earnest friend Tako it, if not for yourself, at least for your child," Tho old man turned his eyes Blowly from tho outstretched band to tho faco of his daughter, and then, with a muttered "I thank you," took tho money. Having hue. cccded in this much, Henry left them, prom. islng to return tho following day. Ou presenting himself Pgalu late tho next afternoon, lio.fouiid Evelyn Deverell flittlnt: up in her chnlr nlone, nnd sho greeted him witli a smllo of recognition. "Is your father nt homo?" ho nsked. "No," sho'rcpllcd a Itttlo nervously. "Ho took his ..violin and.. went out early this morning as usual." "Why should ho havo doiio that?" ho re- olncd, wlth'nit injured air. (-'Could ho not lavo trusted 1110 for ono day? Well, sinco ho is not here. I sunposo vou and I must lav plans for his benefit by ourselves. First of all, is ho a pretty fair penman, do you think?" I'm afraid not," answered Evelyn, doubt fully ; "ho is so old that his hand trembles a good deal. 1 lowcvcr, in that basket you will find tho papers ho kept from hi.s old business, and you can judge for yourself." Henry took down tho basket, and empty ing tho papers In his lap, ran them over carelessly. Suddenly ho stopped nt ono of them with a; start of surprise, nnd read it through earnestly. Tlio young girl watch ing him, saw tho color fado out of his cheek, and a deathly paleness succeed It. After a tlmo ho rested his head in his hands, and coined to ponder long and deeply. Then ho arose with a strage expression of gloom upon is face, and approached her. "Miss Dev erell," ho said, in a low, husky voice, "this paper contains matter of tho greatest impor tant to yVjur father. I shall keep it, nnd seo that justlco h dono him. No," ho add ed, gravely answering her looks, "I can tell ou nothing more. You will hear from mo in a few days ; meantime, tako this money it is only a little, but all I havo tako it, I say," ho cried, almost fiercely. "I tell you it belongs to you, and a thousand times as much," Forcing it into her hand, ho went away without another word, leaving her frightened and bewildered by his strango actions. "Father," ho snid, (sternly, approaching Mr. Archer, "I always knew that you were a ard man, but I never knew that you wcroa illain. You ruined William Deverell de- icratcly. Hero is tho proof," placing tho aper beforo his father. "Where did you get this ?'' quavered Mr. rVrcher, witli a whito face. "I discovered it among his papers." "Docs ho know its valuo ?" "I doubt if ho knows of its cxistenco evon, so implicitly did ho trust you to his ruin," ho added, bitterly. '.'Then," said his father, complacently, 'destroy it, and all's .safe." "No, I will not," answered Henry, sharp ly. "Justlco must bo done." "Well," said Mr. Archer, going ofTon tho other track, and assuming anVir of generosi- that sat as well upon his features as a conch shell would on a snail's back, "I'll tako him back at ten dollars a week. Hut don't make 1110 glvo up tho money. "Every cent," retorted Henry, firmly, turning away. Tho utishot of this conversation was that a few days after Thomas Archer, merchant, nbscondod with all ho could lay his hands upon. Henry settled up tho business to tho best advantage, and with tho proceeds in his pocket started for Mr. Devercll's homo ; but when ho arrived there they wero nowhero to be found, and ho learned that they had been driven out for non-payment of rent. Heavy hearted he sought information among tho lowly neighbors, but ho could get no trace of them nnd was about giving up in despair when he ran across them sitting on the steps of a tenement, the sick girl wearily leaning on the old man's bhoulder. Hailing a passing hack, ho placed them in it, and, entering himself, gavo them in a very few words tho history of his father's dishon esty, his strago discovery of it, and tho sud den reversal of their fortunes. "And you," said William Deverell, after a long and grateful silence, "what havo you left for vourself?" "There," said Henry, .stretching out his hands; "honest and willing to work, not only for my own support, but also to mako good that portion of debt which is still duo you." "Hut," paid tho other, "until you aro ablo to shift for yourself, let 1110 offer you somo of this money " Not a cent," interposed Henry. "It would burn my fingers. Hcsides, how could tho son succeed wliero'the father is in such bad repute? No; I will leavo tho city for a timo and find somo employment, howover humble." Holh Evelyn and her father would havo combattcd this resolution, but ho returned firmly : "Let 1110 tako my own course. As it is now, 1 cannot bear to look any man in tho face, for I feel as if my father's dishonor had reflected back on me. Timo and my own oxertions will ovcrcomo that, perhaps, and. in the meanwhile, you shall hear from me." Resisting their entreaties that ho would remain with them longer, ho bndu them farewell, and was gone. Fostered by that caro and attention which her father's oxtrcmo poverty had hitherto, prevented her from receiving Evelyn very soon recovered her full health. A few weeks afterward, purchasing a small dwell ing in a retired country town, tho father and laughter turned their backs upon tho scene of their former sufferings. Months rolled by, and nothing was heard of Henry Archer. And yet ho who had so nobly sacrificed himself to his senso of right nud honor, who had raised them out of tho depths of misery into peaceful alllueiice, was never out of their thoughts, Oftimes, when the old man. recalling thoo sad days of suf fering and despair, dwelt gratefully on his name, thero camo a centlo glow to his daughter's cyo that spoko of moro than grat itude. Ono morning, ns they wero sitting in the! little parlor, they wcro startled by a terrific explosion that shook tho windows and brought them to their feet in alarm. Thero was death in tho very found ; and, in a few moments, tho village was full of excited hurrying crowds. While tho father nnc daughter wero conversing together in nwo stricken tones, a terrified villager rushci Into their preseiico with tho news that a disaster had taken placo In ono of tho ueigh boring quarries. A number of tho work men had been slain oughtrlght, and many moro injuied, For somo unknown reason ono of tlio wounded men had begged to bo carried to Mr. Devercll's residenco, and they wero now bringing him up tho road ou litter. Ghastly pale, oven though tho blood streaks upon his sunburnt cheeks, lay Henry Archer, alive, breathing, and that was all As Evelyn, nud her father approached and knelt by tho stretcher, ho opened his eyes and smiled .1 faint rcmcmbrnnco of his former cheerful smile. Then his lips were neen lo move, as If ho would have spoken to them. "Hush I" said ono of tho rough but pitying bystanders. "Ho wants to speak to you, sir." "Tho pocket," whispered Henry "pack age for you tako it out." The man who had spoken, obeyed his wish, nnd drew forth ti roll of bank notes. "Tho debt all paid I" gasped Henry. "Oh, my poor fellow I" said Mr. Deverell, "whero was tho need of this?" "Honor contented now," ho murmured, moro brokenly still. Then, with a fecblo attempt tojgivo utteranco to his satisfaction, nnd a momentary brightening of tho dull cyo as it turned towards Evelyn, ho sank quietly into Insensibility, Days went by that seemed like long dim nights, full of stiango fancies and racking pains that would only bo quelled by tho vision of one sweet faco and tho touch of 0110 soft hand, and then ho awoko to reality. Other days went by, and tho deep, tender yearning that had arisen in his heart at last found vent in words. And as he spoke, over tho beautiful faco of her whom ho had pitied and succored In distress, thcro broko a smile, in whoso happy radianco ho saw all his hopes fulfilled. How Not to lie, Swindled. Wo clip an item from an exchange, which it will bo well for farmers and others liable to be swindled by patent-rights men, venders of wonderful secrets, trnvcliug agents, etc., to carefully read nud duly heed. To avoid being swindled, our contemporary suggests action upon theso general principles: Never listen to any proposition which is commend ed to you as giving opportunities to make money dishonestly, or by selling an nrticlo for moro than its worth. Tho man who pro poses to havo you defraud others, will cheat you if ho has a good opportunity. As a rule, when a stranger proposes to sell you any nr ticlo at very much less than its value, it is safo to dcclino buying, unless you aro a good judgo of tho article. Never mako a purchase or contract with n stranger when his assur anco is tho only cvidenco you havo of value. Nover sign a paper presented by a stranger without reading it and being suro you under stand its character. Ab a rule, avoid engag ing in any enterprise, however attractive it may appear, if outside your usual business. Huy of and sell to whom you know personal ly, or who arc engaged in regular, perma nent business, whenever this can bo done. Other things being equal, buy and tell in tho market nearest home. Tho baleful inllticnco of tho Beechcr scan dal has destroyed tho confideuco hitherto re posed in tho cloth. In tho rural districts this effect is alarmingly noticeable. On Sunday last this distrust deprived an estima blo matron of the opportunity, to her most dear, of attending divino servico in the church f her choice Tho sccno is a pleasant vil- :ige, aud tho minister nud tho lady aro near neighbors, their respectivo residences being separated only by tho width of tho main street. Tlio minister is middle aged, cood natured, and a favorite. It was his custom every Sunday to givohisestimablo parishioner seat in tho family carriage, so that sho might not havo to walk half a mile to tho church. On Sunday tlio dominio's carriago drew up in front of tho lady's door. Sho wa3 wait ing, nnd bustling down, prepared to get in, declining tho parson's proffered aid. Sud denly sho noticed that ho was alone. Where is your wife?" sho asked abruptly. Sho is not well enough to go to church to day" was tho reply. "Whcroisyourdaugh ter?" was tho iiextqucry,an(lthoanswcrwas, Sho stayed nt homo to tako caro of her mother." An instant of hesitation followed. Then tho lady turned her back uponherpas- tor, aying, "I guess I won't go to church with you ; thero is so much scandal about nowadays." She is ninety years of age. Tlio Pulse. Every person should know how to ascer tain the stato of tho pulso in health, then by comparing it with what it is when ho 13 ail- ng, ho may havo some idea of tho urgency f his case. Parents should know the healthy pulso of each child as now and then a person is born with a peculiarly slow or fast pulse, and the very case in hand may bo that peculiarity. An infant's pulso is 0110 hun dred and forty ; a child of seven about eigh- aud from twenty to sixty years it is sev enty beats a minute, declining to sixty nt four score. A healthful grown person's pulso beats seventy times a minute; thero may bo good health down to sixty ; but if a pulso always exceeds seventy there is disease ; the machine is working itself out; thcro is fever or iiillamuialiou somewhere, and tho body Is feeding on itself, ns In consumption, when tho pulso is quick that is, over seventy, gradually increasing, with decreased chances to cure, until it reaches ono hundred nnd twenty, when death comes beforo many days. When tho puKo is over seventy for months nnd thero is a alight cough tho lungs aro af fected, Tho pulso decreases when a recuni bent position Is assumed for any length of time, and is increased by cxorcise,stimulanU, and tho presenco of food in tho stomach, How to Put (liihlrcu lo llcd.

Why Should" Any 3Inu Swear? I can conceivo no reason why any man should swear, but many reasons why ho should not. First. It is mean. A man of high moral character would almost as lief steal a sheep as swear. Second. It is too vulgar; altogether too low for a decent man. Third. It is cowardly ; implying n fear of not being believed or obeyed. Fourth. It is ungentlcmanly. A gentle man is well bred, refined. Such a ono will no moro swear than throw mud with a clod hopper. Fifth. It is itulecent,otleiisivo to delicacy, and extremely unfit for any human ear. Sixth. It is foolish; a want of decency is 1 want of senso. Seventh. It is abusivo; to the mind which conceives tho oath, to tho tonguo which utters It, aud the person nt whom it is aimed. Eighth. It is venomous; showing man's heart to bo a nest of vipers, nnd every time ho swears ono of them sticks his head out. Ninth. It is contemptiblo; forfeiting tho respect of all tho wiso and good. Tenth. It is wicked ; violating tho divino aw and provoking tho displeasure of Him who will not hold him guiltless who takcth His namo In vain. Why Somo People- nro Poor.
