SWEETHEARTS AND" WIVES, A sober, halt discontented fooe at tlio wlndiw, n bright face In the street. The window Is thrown open, ond o smile goes from the bright faco to the sober ouo, giving it a now and pleowmter as pect. Both faces rro young that nt the window the youngest almost childlike. Yet the window face is the face of a wife, and the street faco that of a maiden, "fancy free.1 " How strangely I was deceived, Belial" said the lady in the street. "Deceived I How, Mary? What do you mean? Uutcomoin. You'ro just the one I wish to see. " "I was sure I saw you, not ten minutes ago, riding out with Harry," said the young friend, as they mot and embraced at the door. "Oh, dear, nol I haven't been out rid ing with narry for a month. " "Indood! How'h that? Ioanremem v l when you rode out togother almost overy afternoon. " "Yes; but that was before our mar riage," replied the young wife in a voice that made her friend look into her faco narrowly. "The husband has less time for recrea tion than the loTer. He must give more thought for business," remarked her friend. The little wifo tossed her head and shrugged her shoulders in n doubtful way, saying, as she did so, "I don't know about the business ; but lovers and hus bands are a different species of the genus homo. The explanation lies somewhero In this direction, I presume. " "All, Bella, Belial That speech doesn't come with a musical sound from your lips, " remarked the friend, smiling, yet serious. "Truth is not always melodious," said Bella. " Ho w is it as to sweethoarts and wives ? " asked the friend. "Do they belong to the same class?" The question appeared to reach tho youngwife's ears with a suggestive force. Her face was a little changed as she an swered : "I don't know. Perhaps not. " The friend had been scanning tho youngwife for some moments from head to foot, in a way that now elicited tho question: "Do you boo anything peculiar about mo?" "Yos," was answered. "What?" "A peculiar untidiness that I nover ob corved in tho sweetheart." Bella glanced down at her soiled and ruffled dress. "My neglige," she said, with a little, short laugh, "So I should think! Now, shall I draw your picture?" "Yesj if you have an artist's fancy." "Here It is. Hair lusterless and un tidy; skin dull for want of action and feeling; wrapper better conditioned for the wash tub and ironing table than as a garment for the fair person of n young wife; no collar nor ornament of any kind; and a countenance well, I can't give that as I saw it a little while ago at the window, but I'm sure it wasn't the face to charm a lover. Perhaps it might guit a husband but I have my doubts." Bella felt the reproof of her friend, as was evident by the epota that began to burn on her cheeks. "You wouldn't have mo dress as for a party every day?" she said. "Oh, no; but Pd have you neat and tweet as a young wife should always be ; that is, if she cares for the fond eyes of her husband. I verily believe it was Horry I saw riding out a littio while ftgol" Bella threw a quick, startled look upon her friend, who already regretted her closing sentence. "Why did you say that? What did you mean?" aha asked. "I only said it to plague you, " answered the friend. "To plague mel There was an expression in Bella's face that Mary had never seen there before. Her eyes hod grown suddenly of n darker shade, and were eager and ques tioning. Her lips lay closer together; there were lines on her forehead. "You are not really in earnest, Mary, about seeing Harry riding out with a lady this of ternoon," she said in a voice and with a look that revealed fully her state of mind. The color hod left her face, and her heart shook in her voice. "I was probably mistaken, Bella," re plied the friend, "though I had not doubted of the fact a moment until I now you at the window a littio while ago." " Did you notice the lady particularly?" "No; but let the matter pass, dear. No doubt I was mistakon. It is worrying you more than I could have imagined." Bella looked at her friend for some moments, in a strange way; then giving u low, suppressed, walling cry, bent for ward and faco upon her bosom, sobbing a id bhuddering in such wild turbulence of feeling that her friend became actually ulurined. "You have frightened mol" said the young wife, lifting her head at last, as her excitement died away. "Ah, Mary, Sf I should loso my husband's love it would kill met" "Then, Bella," answered her friend, ".oc to it that you neglect none of the means required for keeping it. If you would continuo to bo loved you must not crow unlovely. The charms that won your husband must not bo folded up, and kept for holiday occasions, and then put on for other eyes than his. You must keep them ever displayed before llim; nnv. mifr. fin nmv nttrantinu To it it the husband even dearer than the lover, and his heart better worth tho holding? Look back, my dear friend, over the brief moons that have waxed and waned since you were a bride. Put yourself on trial, nnd take impartial tes timony. How has it been? Has your temper been as sweet as when you sat liauiug together in the summer twilights, talking of the love crowned future? Havo you been as studious to please as then? as careful of his feelings? as re regardful of his tastes? Do you adorn you- s 'If for lib eyes now as when you dressed for his coming then? As a wife, aro you as lovable as you were when a maiden? Lovo is not a chameleon to feed on air, and change In every hue of condition : it must havo substantial food. Deprive it of this and It languishes and dies. And now, dear, I have -warned you. Meet your huslond, when he re turns home tills evening, looking as lovely as when ho came to you in your father's house, attracted as the bee is to the flower, and note the mannerln which his faco will brighten up. Did he kiss jou when he came home yesterday?" The face of Bella flushed a little. "nutbands soon loso their inclination lor kissing," she answered. "If the wife remains as attractive as the maiden, never I" "Oh, you don't know anything about it," said Bella. "Wait until you are married. " After tho friends said good afternoon, the young wife went to her room, and orlej for a good quarter of an hour. Then she commenced doing as the friend had suggested. Refreshed by a bath, she at tired herself in a spotless white wrapper, with a delicate blue belt binding her waist A small lace collar, scarcely whiter Uum her pure ne-k, edged and tied with narrow oxure ribbon, was tinted svwav from her nwar, like throat ; and fust below, at the swell of the was an exquisitely cut oral pin. Her hair, a rich golden brown, had bam mads glossy as the wine of a mm, and w folded just enough away from the tem ples to show their delicate cutting. Two opening rosebuds red awl white nestled above and in front of one of tot pearl tinted ears. She did look lovely and lovable, as her mirror told Iter. Harry was half an Ivour later than usual In coming home. Bella was sitting in the parlor when ho oame In, walling for his roturn with a new feeling In her heart a feeling of blending fear and hope ; fear lost ho was actually becoming estranged from her, and ntremblingliope to win him back again. His step wm not very light. Sho noticed that; for Iter car had become newly sensitive. He had caught a glimpse of her through tlw win dow, and knowing, therefore, tliat site was in the parlor, came to the door and stood there. "Bless mol" he exclaimed, after n moment, "how charming you look I" And he came forward, with a pleased smllo on Ids face, and taking her hand bent down and kissed her. "Blooming as a rosol" he added, hold ing her away from him, and gating at her admiringly. How her heurt did lieat witlt new dolightl "Dressed for company?" Thcro was just n littio shade of cold ness in Harry's voice, as he suggested the probablo reason for her singularly Im proved appearance. "Yes," replied Bella. "Who?" "My husband!" There was a tender heart flutter in her voice. Harry was a little puzzled, but greatly pleased. It was true that ho had been riding out that afternoon with a lady a handsome, attractive woman, who was throwing around his weak, almost boy ish, spirit a syren's fascination. She put on ovcry charm in her iower to sum mon; while tho foolish wifo was hiding hers away, and taking no paius to hold dominion in tho heart sho had won, and was now in danger of losing. Fivo min utes before tho companion of his rido ap peared to his fancy so charming in com parison with his wife, that ho felt no pleasure at tho thought of meeting one who, slnco their marriage, had seemed to grow ovcry day loss aud. less attractive. But now, Bella was his queen of hearts again! "And you really dressed to rccclvo me, darling?" he said as ho kissed her again, and then drew his arm lovingly about her waist. " Yes, for you. Could a true wifo wish to look lovelier to other's eyes thau her husband's?" "I should think not," he answered. Sho understood, in tho words, more than ho meant to convey. Thero wos a rose tint In everything in Bella's homo that evening. Prom the cold, lialf indifferent husband, Harry was transformed to tho warm, attentive lover. How many times, as sho turned her eyes upon him, did slio catch a look of tender admiration or loving pride! "What has mado you so charming to night?" he said, as ho kissed her once more. "You look as pure and as sweet as a lily. " "Lovefor my husband, "she answered; and then a tear, in which joy's sunlight mado a rainbow, stole out from tho droop ing lashes, and lay a crystal drop on her cheek. She made no confession of her thought less neglect of the means by which hearts aro held in thrall to love, though her husband half guessed at tho fact that something had awakened her to tho truth. On the next afternoon Harry rodo out with a lady again; but that lady was his wife. Ho was never afterward in danger of being won away from faithful love ; for Bella grew in his eyes moro at tractive, moro charming, more lovablo overy day. And sho thus saved him, in his younger and less stable years, from being drawn aside from tho right way, and both herself and him from years of wretchedness. Don't, fair ladies, neglect theso personal attractions becauso you aro married. Tho charms that won aro just as potent to re tain affection. Tho beginnings of alien ation often lies just here; and many a neglected wifo has lost her husband's heart because sho ceased to look lovely in his eyes. It isn't ii) tho heart of n man to love a dowdy, careloai, fretful, un lovely woman. Tho husband bargains for something very different from this, and if ho finds himself deceived, will assuredly repent of his bargain ! So look to it, young wives, that you loso not, through carelessness or neglect, a siuglo charm.

Wo laugh at the innocent yonnghouw wife who ordered "half a dozen halibut" for dinner. Had she lived in the South Pacific Islands she might havo Ixjsa equally laughed at for ordering lialf a dozen oysters not to say a pint. The au thor of "Oysters, nnd All About Them" gives some examples that nearly match tho giant clams and abalonos of tho Cali fornia coast. Pliny mentions that, according to tho historians of Alexander's oxpedition, oys ters a foot in diameter wcro found in tho Indian Seas, and Sir James E. Tennent was unexpectedly enabled to corroborate the correctness of this statement, for at Kottler, near Trincomalee, enormous specimens of ediblo oysters wero brought to the rest house. One measured more than 11 inches in length by half as many In width. But this extraordinary measurement is beaten by the oysters of Port Lincoln in South, Australia, which are the largest edible ones iu the world. They are as largo as a dinner plate, and of much the same shape. Thoy are sometimes more than a foot across the shell, and the oys ter fits his habitation so well that ho does not leave much margin. It is a new sensation when a friend asks you.to lunch at Adelaide to havo one oys ter fried in butter, or in eggs and bread crumbs, set before you; but it is a very pleasant experience, for the flavor and delicacy of tho Port Lincoln mammoth are proverbial; even in that land of lux uries.

A comln' back, and notlc thing that' new to m ana slranxe, Especially at eventn' when yer new band fel lers meet tn fancy uniforms and all, and play out on tb street. What's come of old Bill Lindsay and the Sax horn fellers; say? I want ta hear the old band play. What's come of Eastman and Kat Boow, and where'a War Barnett at? And Nate and Bony Meek, BUI Hart, Sam Hlch'son and that Air brother of him played the drum ns twlco aabl(raa Jim? Aud old 111 Kerns, the carpenter) say, what's; become o' him? I make no doubt, ycr new band, now's a com- petenter band. And plays their music more by note than what they play by hand. And styllsher and grander tunes; bnt some how, anyway. I want to hear the old band play. Suoh tunes as "John Brown's Body" and "Sweet Alice, " don't yon know? And "The Camels Is A-comln'," and "John Anderson, my Jo." And a dozen others of m, "Number Kino" and "Number 'Leven," Was favorites that fairly mado a toiler dream o' heaven. And when the boys "nd saranado, 1'vo laid so till In bed I've even heerd the locus'blossomsdroppln' on the shed. When "Lilly Dale" er "Hazel Dell" had Nibbed and died away: I want to hoar the old band play. The new band maybe beats It, but the old band's what 1 said; It alius 'peared to kind o' chord with somrpln' in my head; And, whllse I'm no muslclancr, when my blame eyes Is jes Nigh drowned out and roem'ry squares her jaws and sort o' says Shewon'ner never will ferglt, I want to Jes torn Id. And tako and light righto' hero, and clt bad; West ag'in. And stay there. when I git there, whero I never haf to say: I want to hear the old band piny. James Whltcomb ltiloy Southern IVIt tn IVnr Ab we aro reminded by tho author n "Four Years In Rebel Capitals," the South, as well as the North, needed to oxercise its sense of humor, whenever that was possible, to carry it through the terrible strain of the war.

Colonel Tom August, of tho First Virginia, was the Charles Lamb of Con federate war wits, cental ana ever cny, Early in secession days a bombastic friend approached him with tho question "Well, sir, I presume yourvoico is still for war?"

City Point, on tho James River, was the landing for transports, with soldiers released from Northern prisons on parole. One day a most woebegone and emaciated "Johnny" sat swimming his shoeless feet from a barrel, awaiting his turn, when a pompous Federal major remarked, to no ono in particular: "It isn't far to Rich inont. " "Reck'n ct's near onto three thousin' mile," drawled Johnny weakly. ''Nonsenso! You must bo crazy!" re torted the officer, staring. "Wal, I ent a-reck'nin' edzact," was the slow reply. "Jest thought so, kinder. " "Oh, you did! .And why, pray?" "'Cause it's took'n youuns nigh onto fooro year to git thar from Wash'n'ton, " was tho settling retort. Florlila'o Labyr Juthlon Waterways.
