.Ol'rt " Happy,at Home.
; ff belittle aflaty of evejy ,d»y batyt,
floatlng slowly and silently down the
tltretei'bfllfe, shows very plainly which
way. the, tide sets. And When Sirs.'
Parole- says, with a groan, “ My hus
hei>d <; never spends his evenings at
home,”lt is natural to .inquire within
one’s self why It is that Mr. Purple
finds other resorts so mush more attrac
tive than the househojd/altar!
: - I t don’t see can’t be a little
more domestic, ’’rays Mrs. Purple.
Well, why Is it? There.is a reason
fCr every thing in the world, say philoso
phers, and there must be a reason for
this.
In he first place, Mrs. Purple is one
of those unfortunate housekeeper whose
work is never done. There is always
something dragging—a room to be
swept, lamps to be trimmed—fretful
babies to be put to sleep, while one eye
Is on the broiling meat and the other on
the muddy footprint unwittingly left
by Mr. Purple, on the doorstep, f "There,
Purple, I knew just how it would be. I
wonder if you know the use of a scraper
of a door mat. I should think after all
the time I’ve spent in cleaning up—”
And Mrs. Purple goes off into a mo
notonous recapitulation of her troubles
and trials that lias the effect of a lullaby
upon the baby, trying it may
be to the feelings of the baby’s father.
Moreover, Mrs. Purple, with all her
11 cleaning up,” does notunderstandtlie
olementary principles of keeping a house
neat. Things are always "round in the
way table-covers put on awry ; dust
ashes under the grate; curtains torn
away from their fastened and pinned
up until Mrs. Purple can “find time” to
readjust them. .Somehow it looks for
lorn and desolate, and unhomelike
when the master of the house comes in
at night. Mr. Purple, manlike, can’t
tell where the defection lies —he don’t
analyze -the chill that comes over his
heart as he crosses the threshold —he only
knows that “things don’t look ship
shape!” And so he takes his last when
his wife’s back is turned and sneaks ig
nomlnlpusly off, glad to get away from
; the dead-alive fire, the dusty room, and
Mrs. Purple’s tongue. Who can blame
the man? Mr. Purple may be “ lazy,”
and "careless,” and "selfish,” very
likely he is—most men have a tendency
that way—but nevertheless ho don’t
like to he told of it over and over and
over again, in that persistent, illogical
sort of way that reminds you of an old
hen running from side to sido In her
coop, and poking her head through the
bars in the same place every seven
seto-nds! Mr. Purple naturally won
dels why his wife don’t occasionally
allude to the few good qualities ho hap
pens to possess! Mr. Purple has every
inclination to he happy at home, if his
better half would only give him a
chanco.
Of ail the sweet-tinted pictures of do
mestic happiness that we find In the
pages of Holy Writ, there is none that
suggests more comfort than Abraham
sitting In his tent door "In the heat of
the day" under thuslmdojv of the palm
trees of Mumre. Depend upon it, the
good old'patrlarcli never spent Ills eve
nings away from home. He didn’t be
lieve in "just going across the plains
to Lot’s house,” or “ running over to
Sodom to hear the news.” No, Abra
ham liked to sit quietly by his tent
door, and very likely Mrs. Sarah would
come and lean over his shoulder aud
chat with hint after the Oriental fash
ion 1 We have the very best of testi
mony for knowing that she was
very amiable under the ordeal of
‘unexpected company,” when "the
calf tender and good ” was dressed, and
the "three measures of line meal”
baked on the hearth 1
Tlie idea of looking beyond the sphere
of home for enjoyment is ut the root ot
our modern evils. Home should he the
very centre aud sanctuary of happiness;
and when it is not, there is some screw
loose in tlie domestic machinery 1 If
you want, to surround a young man
with the best possible safeguard, don’t
overwhelm him witli maxims and
homilies as to what lie is and is not to
do, but make ills home happy in the
evenings. Let him learn that however
hard and cruel the outside world may
he, lie Is always sure of sympathy and
consideration Inone placo 1 Woe betide
tho man, whatever ills lot or position,
who has in ills heart of hearts no
memory of a homo where tho sunshine
never faded out and tho voices were al
wuys sweet. Wero lie as Hotlisehild,

A traveler culled lntely ut u farmer's
lioiiHe In Alabama; tho owner being from
home, nml tho mother and daughter
being ulone, the refuHed to lodge the way
farer.
" How far, then,” Haid he, "is it to a
house where a preacher can get lodg
ing
“ Oh 1 If you are a preacher,” said the
lady, "you can stop here.”
Accordingly he dismounted, deposit
ed his saddle-hags in the house, and led
Ills horse to the stable. Meanwhile the
mother and daughter were debating the
point as to what kind of a preacher he
was.
“He cannot be a I’resbyterian,” said
one, "for he is not well dressed enough.”
"He is not a Methodist,” said the
other, “for his coat is not the right cut
for a Methodist.”
"If I could And his hymn book,” said
the daughter, "I could Boon tell wlmt
Bort of preacher he is.” And with that
she thrust her hand Into the saddle-bags
and pulling out a flask of liquor, she ex
claimed, “La! mother, he’s a Hard Shell

Paris Fashions—The Very Latcsi
It is almost Impossible to imagine to
what an inordinate length trained skirts
are now worn. When dresses are not
short, or looped up, as It Is the fashion
to wear them out of doors when no calls
are in prospect, the skirts are cut very
nearly, if not quite, as long as court
trains. Those who are moderate, wear
their trains one yard, ultra-clcgantes
two yards long. The crinoline expands
considerably from the knee downward;
but with the Jourrcau or Princcmc form
of dress, which is now the most popu
lar, no’hteels are worn from the knee to
the waist.
With a description of two new dresses
prepared for the dcmi-saison at Paris,
we close :
One for afternoon wear was poult dc
sole of the turtledove shade. The skirt
was trimmed so as to simulate a tunic,
and this was managed, not by a straight
cross-piece, as formerly, but with rou
leaux, which described miniature ban
ners. The rouleaux were made of white
satin. The bodice was plain, and cut
with a round waist; at the back were
two baßques, ornamented to correspond
with the simulated tunic. The sleeves
were tight to the wrist, where they were
fastened.with three silver bell buttons.
The bodice was trimmed with rouleaux
of white satin, and was fastened with
sliver buttons. The epaulettes consist
ed of heavy silver aiguilcttes. These
silver .aiguilettes, which are about four
inches long, are very fashionable at the
present moment. They are exceeding
ly pretty, especially on blue and bright
green silk dresses, the two oolors most
in vogue at present.
The evening dress was of this spring
green shade, only shot with white, the
material a rich poult de sole. It was In
the form ;of, a fpurrcau Empire, the
bodice being cut In one place with the
skirt. The : bodloe was trimmed 111
straight lines with cross bands of the
same slik, studied with large pearls In
the form of nails; round the bottom of
the skirt was .a deep flounce of Point de
Angleterre, which was sewn on almost
plain, and then crossed at Intervals with
bands of green silk studded with pearls;
a small bertha of white lace completed
the toilette. This make of dress is worn
without any waistband, andis buttoned
the entire length of the front. '
Large Shop.
In the early days of mining, before
roads had been laid out and saw-mills
built a black-smith located on one of
the river bars in California, and, erect
ing a forge of stones and clay, set the
anvil on a stump which he had sawed
low for the purpose, and sharpened the
picks and drills of the boyß who worked
n the vicinity. He worked at mining
himself in the day time, and did his
blacksmitbingat night; and, not know
ing what day his claim might
and he be compelled to pull up
stakes and leave, did not think
it worth while to build a
roof over the “Bhop.” One day Bill
S. and two others left the bar for Weav
erville, the county seat. Ab they came
into the main trail leading to that place
they met a disconsolate looking chap,
leading a horse, that stumbled at every
step. The man at once inquired:
“ Stranger, can you tell me how far it
is to a blacksmith’s shop?” My hosß
has lost a shoe, an'goes powerful lame.”
"Oh, yes,” answered Bill, “ you’re in
the shop now,but it’saboutfourmiles to
the anvil.”
Paternal Duty.
The father who plunges into business
so deeply that he has no leisure for
domestic duties and pleasures, and
whose intercourse with his children
consists in a brief word of authority, or
a surly lamentation over their intolera
ble expensiveness, isequallyto bepitied
and to be blamed. What right has he
to devote to their pursuits the time
which God has allotted to his children?
Nor is it any excuse to say that he can
not support his family in their present
style of living, without this effort. I
aHk by what right can his family de-
nand to live in a manner which re-
quires him to neglect his most Bolemn
and important duties ? Nor is
it an excuse to say that he wishes
to leave them a competence. Is
lie under obligation to leave them
that competence which he desires? Is
it an advantage to them to be relieved
■om the necessity of labor? Besides,
is money tiro only desirable bequest
which a fathercan leave to his children?
Surely, well cultivated intellects; hearts
sensible to no domestic affection; the
love of parents, and brethren and sis
ters ; a tasto for home pleasures ; habltß
of order and regularity and Industry;
hatred of vice and vicious men ; and a
lively sensibility to the excellence of
virtue—are as valuable a legacy as an
Inheritance of property—simple prop
erty purchased by the loss of evory
habit which could render that proporty
a blessing.
Voices—Wliat they InUlcate.
There are light, quick, surface voices
that involuntarily seem to utter the
slang, " I won’t do to tie to.” The
man’s words may assure you of ills
strength of purposo and reliability, yet
his tone contradicts ills speech.
Then there are low, deep,strong voices,
where the words seem ground out, as if
the man owed humanity a grudge and
meant to pay it HOtne day: That man’s
opponents may well tremble, and his
friends may trust his strength of pur
pose and ability to act.
There is the coarse, boisterous, dicta
torial tone, invariably adopted by vul
gar perßuns, who have not sufficient
cultivation to understand their own in
significance.
There is the incredulous tone that is
nil of a covert sneer, or a secret “ You
uun't dupo mo, intonation.
Then there Is the whining, beseeching
voice, that says “sycophant’’ as plainly
as if it uttered the word. It cajoles and
Hatters you ; Its words say “I love you—
I admire you: you are everything you
should be.”
Then there is the tender, musical,
compassionate voice, that sometimes
goes with sharp features (as they indi
cate merely intensity of feeling) and
sometimes with blunt features but
always with genuine benevolence.
If you are full of honesty, strength
and purpose, your voice proclaims it.
If you are cold and calm and firm and
consistent, or fickle and foolish and de
ceptions, your voice will be equally
truth-telling.
You cannot wear a mask without its
being known that you are wearing one.
You cannot change your voice irom a
natural to an unnatural tone without its
being known that you nre doing so.—
Agnes Leonard.
A Fast Horse.
Dave C is one of those characters
that are to be found in almost every
place. Ho is always driving a horse
that he Imagines is fast, and putting on
even more Htyle than the speed of the
horse will warrant.
As he was driving into town recent
ly, he overtook "Uncle Ike,” who was
well known as a dry joker, and who re
solved to " tako a little of the conceit
out of him,” if opportunity offered. As
Uncle Ike was afoot, Dave stopped his
horse, and asked him to ride.
"No,” replied Uncle Ike, “much
obliged to you,<but I guess not.”
" You had better do so,” said Dave
eyeing his fast horse with much com
placency, “lam going straight into the
place, and will take you right through.”
'"’Well,” responded Uncle Ike, as he
commenced to climb in, "I don’t care
if I do, as 1 have plenty of time.andam
not in much of a hurry to get there!”
The horse went ahead, but Uncle Ike
never again received an invitation to
ride with Dave.
An Example to Mothers.
Queen Victoria, when at home, regu
larly teaches a Sunday school class and
Bible class for the benefit of those resid
ing in the palace and its vicinity. How
attentive she Is to her own children,
may be inferred from a late pleasing
oircumstance. The Archdeacon of Lon
don on one occasion was catechising the
young princes, and, being surprised at
the accuracy of their answers, Bald" to
the youngest prince, “ Your governess
deserves great credit for instructing you
so thoroughly in the catechism.” Upon
which the royal boy responded, “Oh,
but it is mamma who teaches us the
catechism.” Many American mothers
may take a profitable hint from this
queenly practice.
Anomalies of literary nistory.
One of the Anomalies of Literary His
tory is that it has often been the lot of
those men who have contributed large
ly to the mirth or recreation of others
to endure more than anyordinary share
of misery and want in their own lives.
The most entertaining portions of liter
ature have been written by men whose
hearts have been bowed down by sor
row, and at moments when that sorrow
has been heaviest. It was in thegloom
of a mother's death, deepened by his
own poverty, that Johnson penned the
charming tale of “ Russeleas ;” it was
the chill desolation of a bare and fire
less garret that poor Goldsmith, the
beloved vagabond of literature, sketch
ed the highest picture of domestic hap
piness the world ever had; it was from
a sick bed, In sore distress, and in a
necessitous exile, that Tom Hood shook
all England with laughter. The en
chantment of Bcott, the satire of Jer
rold, half the gems of English wit and
humor, have been thrown out by
genius in its most sorrowful moments.

rom Rev. W. D. Selgfrlod, Pastor of Twelfth
Baptist Church, Philadelphia.
Gentlemen:—l have recently been labornlg
nder the distressing efteots of Indigestion, ac
companied by a prostration of the nervous sys
tem. Numerous remedies were recommended
by friends, and some of them tested, but with
out relief. Your Hoofiand’s German Bittors
were recommended Ly persons who had tried
them, and whose favorable mention of these
Bitterß induced me to try them. I must con
fess that I nad an aversion to Patent Medicines
from tho "thousand and one” quack "Bit
ters,” whose only aim seems to be to palm off
sweetened and drugged liquor upon tno com
munity In a sly way, aud the tendeucy of
which, I fear, is to make many a confirmed
drunkard. Upon learning that yours was
really a medicinal preparation I took It with
happy effeot. Its action, not only upon the
stomach, but upon tho nervous system, was
prompt and gratifying. I feel that I have de
rived great and permanent bouefil from the
use of a few bottles.
Vury respectfully vours,

I have knowu Hoofland's German Bitters
favorably for a number of years’ I have used
thorn lu my own family, and have beou so
pleased with their eirects, that I was Induced
to recommend them to many others, and know’
that they have operated In a strikingly bench
clal manner. I take great pleasure In thus
publicly proclaiming this fact, and calling the
attention of thoso nflfloted with the diseases for
which they are recommended, to these Bitters,
knowing from experience that my recommen
dation will be sustained. Ido this more cheer
full os Hoollaud’s Bitters Is lnteudod to benefit

Although nut disposed to favor or recom
mend Patent Medicines In general, through
distrust of their Ingredients and effects, I yet
know of no sufficient reosous why a man may
not testify to the benefits ho believes himself to
have received from any simple preparation, In
the hope that ho may thus contribute to tbo
benefit of others.
T do this tho moro readily In regard to Hoof
land's German Billers, prepared by l)r. C. M.
Jackson, ol this city, beennso I was prejudiced
against them for many years, uuuer the Im
pression that they were chiefly nn alcoholic
mixtures. I am Indebted to my frlond. Robert
Shoemaker, Esq., for tho removal of this preju
dice by proper tests and for encouragement to
try them wnen suffering from great and long
continued debility. Tbo use of three bottles of
these Bitters at the beginning or the present
year, was followed by evident relief and restor
ation to a degree or bodily and mental vigor
which I had not f6lt for six months before, and
had almost despaired of regaining. I therefore
thank God and my friend directing me to the
use of them. J. NEWTON BROWN.

From tho Rev. Ttios. Winter. J). D., Pastor of

Dear Sir : I feel ltdue to your excellent prep
aration, Hoofland’s German Bitters, to add
my testimony to the deserved reputation It has
obtained. I have for years, at times, been
troubled with great disorder In my head and
nervous system. I was advised by a friend to
try a bottle of your German Bitters. I did so,
and have experienced great and unexpected
relief; my health baa been very materially
benefltted. I conflden ly recommend the arti
cle where I meet with cases similar to my own,
and have been assured by many of their good
effects. Respectfully yours,
T. WINTER, Roxborough, Pa.

formed Church, Kutztown, Berks County Pa.
Respected Blr: I have been troubled with
