One sweet word of help meaning,
- Cocceth to me o'er and o'er,
And the echoes of its music •
Linger ever—evermore
Trusl—no other word wo utter
Can so sweet and precious be,
Tuning all life's jarring discords
Into laeaven'y harmony, , •
Clouds of thickest blackness gathered
O'er trio sours dark sea of silt,
And the port of Heaven was guaided
From my guilty entering in;
Then came Jeans, walking to me,
O'er the purging waves of sin,
Calling, clear above th tempest,
"He that trusteth Heaven shall win."
Now, through all tho sacred pages,
Where my woe gild 'doom had been,
Gleam those goldot-words of ptomise,
"Ho that trnateth Heaven shall win."
Bleated, stir°. an d blool-bought promise,
Lot me diink its sweetness in—
He that trusts his soul in Jesus,
"He that trusteth Heaven shall win."
Dust—oh I Saviour, give ita fullness
To me at thy feet in prayer, •
O•aut my dying lips to hreitthe it,
Leave;ite lingering sweetueii there ;
Sweetuas there, to stay-the breaking
Ot the heal is which love 'me so,
Whispe.ing frimi my silent coffin,
"Trust the hand which lays me low."
Loved once, as ye rear the marble
Pure above my waiting duet,
Grave co other word upon it
But the holiest, sweetest—Tut:at ;

There was .something —I . forget
what —to take ,grandfather and
grandmother away from home one
(Jay in October of the, year I lived
with them in'Huip's Hollow. It may
have been a ftMeratursunie religious
meeting, fur they both drove off
dressed in their best, in the gig, with
old Ajax. harnessed to it, and after I
had tucked in grandrila's iron-gray.
aillk.akirt and ran back) to the house
for grandpa's spectacles; and had
seen the gig vaulisli, in the distance,
I felt lonely. 13u.rn's Hollow was- a
)(meet:nue place at all units; - and the
haixdsoine rambling mansion, which
:night have sheltered a regiment,
had a ghostly` airabout it when one
walked through the upper rooms
alone.
There were but two servants in
he kitchen, Haunch Oakes and the
rich lad Anthony. I head them
laughing merrily together, for though
Hannah old woman, she was
full of fun, and in five' minutes the
door opened, and Hannah .came in
with the tray.
"Please, miss," she said, as she
sat doom, " may I run ' over to Ma
pleton tonight? My sister's marri
ed daughter had a buy last night,
the y sub, and I Want to' see it nat rut
ly— It's the &ski ever had for grand
niece or nephew!"
'• Who brought you the news ?" I
asked.
" Anthony, Miss," said Hannah.
He met Oeorge— that's my niece's
husband—when he was out after the
cow, straying as he always is, and he
told him to tell HannaUshe's a,grand
aunt."
" You may go,"! I said, " but don't
stay late. Grandpa and grandma
may be away all night, and I feel
nervous. To be sure, there .is An
thony, but I never rely bn him. Be
certain not, to stay late."' I repeated
this luituiction with a sort.of fright
stealiugADver me—a presentiment of
,evil, I _might say and something
prompted we to add, "Jle buck by
9." Why, I cannot say, but I felt as
if, at 9, 1 slums' be in some peculiar
danger.
Hannah promised; and after doing
all that - I required, - went Sway, and I
! heard her heavy shoes- on the garden
walk outside.

Early as it was, I bad dropped tbe
curtains and lighted the wax candles
un the mantel, and I s at lung over
wy tea, finding a certain companion
ship in it, as women of all ages will.
sat thus a long time, and was
star.led ir.,ai my reverie by a rap at
the door—a tinud sort of a rap—so .
, hat I knew at once that it was neith
er a member of the house nor an in
timate fileud. I waitta, expecting
Anthony to open the door, but find
ing tie did nut, %cut to it my,-elf. ' --
It had gruwu quite dark, and the
moon ruse late twit night. Ai first
I could only iuuke out a kind of
crouching figure at the bottom of the
porch. I3at when I spoke it advanc
td,..iind•liy the light of the ball lamp
I saw a bhick man. I always had-a
sort of fear of a negro, and instinct
ively shrunk anay. but zis I did sd'he
spoke in a husky whisper :
"Tina is Massa Morton's, is n't
it `t"
" Yes," I replied, "but grandfather
is out." I retreated. He advelaced.
" Please, Mira," he said, "Judge
B. sent - me here. He said,masiia 'nd
',help me on. Let me !stay here a

Reuben, Miss, let me hide some
wheres, and gib me jee' a crust. Mas
sa Judge promise Massa Morton 'ud
help me, an its - kept me up. M.ssus
will, I know."
I knew that grandfather bad given
succor to souse of these poor wretch
es before; but I felt"that I might be
doing wrong by admitting a stranger
in his ebseece.
Caution end pity struggled within
me. At la4t I said :
"Yoe ha t e a note fr6m the Judge,
I suppose, sir."
"I bad solr b writin' on a paper,"
but I's lost itde night it rained so.
Ah, Miss, l's telliu' de truff—Judge

Fdr somehow, when he spoke of
wife and children, I had stepped
back sad les him in. .

TOWANDA, BRADFORD COUNTY. PA., MARCH 13,1873.
It was tbe back ball door at which
the rap had come, and the kitchen
was close at band. I led him thither
When I saw bow be was,*:tw wretch
ed; bow his eyes glistened, and b(,w
under his rough blue‘shirt his heart

Pulses, I forgot my caution. I
b.tought out cold meat and bread',

cionsly, as only a starving man could.
and I hit him to find Anthony, to
whom I intenderl to give directions
for his lodging throughout the night.
To my *uprise, Anthony was .no
where about the honse or garden.
Hannah mast have taken him with
her acwsta the lonely road to Maple
ton.
It was natural, but yet I felt angry.
She should not have. left me- here
alone, and what if the negro should
be an impostor, after all ? I shud
dered at the 'thought ; but when I
ventured again to the kitchen, there
he sat, humble-and fearful as before,
and I could harbor no such'fancy.
Vet I longed for Hannah's return,
and d very anxiously until the
clock struck nine. .11an, instead of
her footstep, I beard' the patter of
rain drops and the ramble of than
der, and looking out saw that a
heavy stortu "ues c coming on.
Now, cert tinl y grandpa and grand
ma would not come, and Hannah,
waiting for the stot ua to pass, would
not- be here for hours. However
my fear of the negro was quite gone,
and I felt. a certain pride in conduct
ing myself bravely under these try
ing circumstances.
Accordingly I went up stairs, found,
1 - 11 the attic sundry pillows and bol
sters, and carried them kitchenward.
" Here," I said, " make yourself a
bed on the,settee yonder; and be easy
-for the night. No one will follow you
Olhe storm and, no doubt, graiidpa
ih assist you when he returns home.
Good night."
"!Good night and. God bless you,
Miss," still speaking in a very husky
whisper. And so I left hid).
But I did not intend to go up
stairs to my bedroom. I intended
for that night to remain.dressed, and
to sit. in grandpa's arm-chair, with
candles and a book for company.
Therefore, I locked the door, took
the
,most comfortable position, and
opening a volume, composed myself
to read.
Reading I fell a‘leep. How long
I slept 'I cannot tell. I was awaken.
ed by a low sound like the prying of
chisel.
At first it mixed with ray last
dream so corn? leiely that I took no
heed of it, but at last I understood
that some oneiwas at work upon the
lot k of the doo f r.
I sat perfectly motionless, the
blood curdling in iny veins, and still
chip, chip, chip, went: . the horrible
little instrument, until at last 1 knew
whence the sound came.
Back of -the sitting-room was
grand -pa's study. - There, in -a great
()It -fashioned chair, sere stored the
family silver, grandma's jewelry, and
roqudry burns of money and impor
tant papers. The safe itself stood in
a- closet in a recess, and at it the
thief was at work:
The - thief—ab, without doubt the
negro I had fed and sheltered!
- P,rhups the next act Would be to
warder me. I listened. The storm
was still raging ; but, though the
road was lonel3,- better that than
this home with such horrible compa
ny. I could not save my grand
father's property, but I could save
my own life.'
I'crept across the room and into
he hail, and to the door. There,
softly as I could, I nut:listened the
bars and bolts, but, alas! one was
above my reach. I waited and listen
ed.
_Then I moved a bail chair to the
spot and climbed npon it. In doing
so I struck my shoulder against the
door frame.
that moment the chip of the chisel
stoppe,d. I heard a glidiog foot, and
horror of 11( trots! a wan c.tme from
, he study and clutched we with both
hands, holding my arms as if in a
vice, while he hissed in my ear :
." You'd tell, would you? You'd
call for he'p ? You would better have
slept, you.lnid; for you see
,now yon
have got to pay for waking. l'd
ruttier have let a chick 'like you off ;
but you know me. now, and I can't
let you live."
. I stared in' his face with horror.
initgli.d with an awful' surpris , , for
now ihitt it .was elot.e to me t saw,
not the negro, but our hired- man,
Anthony Anthony. whom I had
supposed niiles away with Hannah.
He was little more than a youth, and
I had given him many a present,
and always treated him well.
I plead with him kindly.
" Anthony, I never did yon any
barn] ;'I am a gill. Don't .kill me.
Anthony. Take the money, bnv. don't
kill me, for poor grandma's sake."
" You'd tell on me," said Anthony,
!doggedly. "Likely, I'd be caught.
Noi I have got 'to kill yitm."
As be spoke, be took his hands
from my shoulders and clutched my
throat fiercely.

'shriek-,- then ' , was strangling, dying-,
with sparks in my eyes and a sound
of roaring waters in Loy ears, and
then—.
What bad sprung on my assassin
with the >•ilence of a leopard . ? What
bad clutched me from him, and stood
over him 'with something , glittering
above biro heart ? The mist cleared
away.- the blurred mist that had
gathered over my eyes. As sight re
turned, I saw the negro with his foot
'upon AnthOny's breast. .
The fugitive whoin I bad housed
and fed bad saved my life'.
Ten minutes after—ten minutes in
which, bat for that poor slave's pres
ence, I would have been hurried out
of life—the rattle of wheels and the
tardy feet of old Ajax were beard
without, and my grandparents were
with me.
It is needless to say that we were
not ungrateful to oar- preserver ;
needless, also, to tell of Anthony's
punishment.

Not'lrng since an article went the
renuds•of the s ew-impere, !showing
bow a in'an bee4the immensely
wealthy by having learned in early,
life 'when to say " No." If an old
friend asked him to lend him semi-
money.- be uniformly replied, " No."
If a widow desired him to go her se
curity., for a load of wAnd in
midwinter to precept her and her
fatherless little ones from perishing

If Le was solicited to wake
" No."

comfortable borne for orphan chil
dren, be said "No." When his earl&
echookuate • was burned out, and
wattled an " e i xteneion . until he
epnld " wake 4illectiona," he said
" Nu."
Arid thus it was he 'want through
e. He never lent a helping hand
to any human being; his heart was
closed to all human sympathies ; he
had only one love, and that was for
" gold;" his meat, his drink, his sun
shine, the'absol i bing idol of his bear!
was to get gold; and in order to
keep it, he bad the ever ready, the
taliseianic b No" to prevent Lim
from riskin., a dime, or giving a pen-
ny to cheer auy heart, to alleviate
any sorrow, to counterbalance any
culannty. It requires no- stretch rd
the imagination to I picture the old
age and the dying hour of such a die
grace of his kind; loving no one, lov
ed by no one, without any ennobling
emotion, without-any human sympa
thies, without love, Without heart,
without anything but hoarded gold.
This was the man, the watchword Of
whose life was "136;" and when that
life went oat in an unlamented - death
there was no tear alied.at his grave,
and no human being ever planted a
flower near his tomb. -
But there was another man who
quite as early in life learned to say
" Yes." He was never known to re
fuse to do a rear kindness. He was
never known to reject an appeal for
help. With all this, he had a rare
sagacity to discriminate between the
help asked, and the. help which would
do the most good. But help be
would. Said 'a poor, shiftless,, idle
vagabond one day to him, " Won't.
von please help me to a loaf of bread ?
I have bad nothing to_ eat since yes
terday morning, and it is so cold and
I am so hungry."
" Help you to a loaf of bread
why, certainly I will! just tumble
this load of coal into the scuttle-hole,
and I'il give you two Waves."
" But I have. no shovel."

But one day au old neighbor of his
came to him ,in great distress. He
ha r d lost a cargo of great value by
shipwreck; and milers Le could raise•
five thousand dollars that day, he
must suspind business,. andlose the
labor of t.veuty years.
"Lend you five thousand dollars
why, bless your soul, my did -boy, I
would just as litre lend you twenty.
Didn't we use to room together at

eye on you ever since? and don't x .T.
know that ydu never let a note go
protest, and that you have always
been ready to discount your own un
matured paper, and that once, when,
your batik failed and " locked' up" a'
large deposit, you paid 'a thousand
dollars extra interest, rather than fail
to meet a nose ou the day it was due,
even when the holder had lost the
right of protest ?"
That. man grew more kindly. every
day. He had a pleasant word for
every body, and a - snide of rscogui
lion for every' person. As years toll
ed on, his money increased 'without
any effort of his own; his
_heart ex
panded wider and wider towards the
bt, gle rs around him ; and s when
the coffin was 'uncovered before the
pulpit, to allow - , the last look of
friendship and affection, it took a
whole hour for the crowd to pass by:
and few there were t who did not drop
a real tsar. The rdotto of - this man's
life was to say " Yee -to every appeal
for " help." To those who deserved
it he gave direct help, prompt, cheer
ful and whole-hearted ; the thriftless
tie helped to help thettiselves in a
way to cultivate self reliance without
placing themselves under demoraliz
tug übligations. Joseph John Gur

this class. After this will the reader
learn to say "No" or "Yes?" To

How TO MAKE Ifor:Ev.—Let the
btisiness of everybody else alone, and
attend to your own. Don't buy
what yon don't want. Use every
hour to advantage, and ; study even
to make leisure hours useful. Thick
twice before yon throw away a dol
lar; remewbtr yon have another to
make fur it. Find recreation in
looking after 'your businare, and so
'your business will not be neglected
in looking after: -recreation. Buy
low, sell fair, and take care of the
profits.. 'Look over yotir books r.-14.-
tilarly, and, if you find an error of
'only a cent, trace it oat. Should a
stroke of misfortune come over you
in trade, retrench, work harder, but
never flinch. Confront damn rtes
with untiring perseverence, and they
will ultimately disappear:_ Though
you should even fail in the struggle
you will be respected; 'but shrink
from the task'and,yon will be des
pised. -By following these rules
nowever, you need "never say fail."
Pay debts promptly, and so exact
your dues. Keep your word moat

THE SANDWICH WANDS.
In big lectnre on the Sandwich '.ls
lands, Mark Twain gave the follow
ing description of- tbo Islands and
their people :
•
"In fifty years." ha said; "tie na
tiv'e race would be extinct. t Their
color was of a rich dark brown. They
were not in' the least vicious; but
gentle and harpiless. • The women

falls straight from the neck to the
heels.• In the ripper Country the
men wear--well, usually they wore
smile or a pair Of spectacles, or any
thing of that kind. They were not
proud; did not care to make any-dis
play. In old times the King's power
was supreme; bis person was sacred
Mr. Clemens then gave some detaili
concerning thp real signification of
the- often-mentioned, "taboo," de
scribing to what excessive lengths it
was carried, and how, the unfortunate
subject suffered death if even his
sbadciw chanced to fall athwart• the
royal person. , •
•
The_ late Kamehamatt was a man,
who, although a' gentleman in per
son and manners, yet .. retained with ,
in himself many of the old instincts
of savagery. He was always anxious
for a return to: the despotic powers
of his ancestors. His fitst act when
proclaimed Ring, was tu abolish the.

them the chiefs,, holding their land'
by a strictly ft udal teirure. Farther
down in the scale were the common
peoPle, and at the very bottom of
the pi mini& *ere women 'in an ab
ject state of slavery. They were.de-.
graded to the level of brutes, having.
no rights, no privileges. Death - was
the punishment for a wife who durst
seat herself at the table with' her
husband, or even eat from the same
dish. She .was - also forbidden to
touch the choice=st fruits. _ All this
has now changed. Missionaries have '
taught the whole nation to read and
write in its native tongue, so that .
it, was now 4 probably the best educat

The natives were very ho.pitable,
and _would welcome any stranger and
- treat him with -their best. But in
trade it was different—that was busi

the first word to the last; not com
monplace lies such as any one could
tell, but gigantic "Structures of com

A friend had said if he owned one of
these dogs he would cat off, the tail
and throw the balance away. The
Kauakas treated their ilogi very

OUR LABORING MEN.
God bless those little tin pails!
To-night we saw them i going home
—a thousand and more of -them.
They were carried by n3en who toil
—by the workingmen. The little
pails went out .this morning, and
they went in to night. The man who
had one in his hand, swinging by his
side, was weary and foot sore, just
as we have been a thousaml times,
and no one to pity us site the, one
who waited our coning, and God,
who has pity for all who,need.
We saw the laborers go by this
morning, their little pal % full, 'their
step .quick• and elastic—for: it will
not do for lal*tring men to be late.
A wife arose while her tired hus
band was sleeping,--'• just a moment

the, floor till the scanty meal of the
morning was ready. Then she . called
him, and the'tired man arose, wish
mg, he did not have to go forth thus
early.
And while he ate htirriedly, the
hand he once loved to kisS, filled that
little pail. A slice:or two df bread 4
a little cold • Meat, •some salt atal
mustard ; and,l, perhaps, a piece of
pieLor cake ; mayhap an egg, or cold`
Potato ; and, perchance, a little
cup on top of the pail, a pint of Col-.
fee. Then the knife and the spoon
re - plippedin, and be hurries away.

But what would be thought of one
‘i.ho was laughed at for being afraid
of rush a very little thing as a wasp's
sting? It is the -nervous condition
upon which annoyance falls -that de

dast.and cinders and smoke when,in
robust health, and off for a vacation,
he is horne by the train, with head- s
Ling speed, away from the dismal
city, and onward into the free and
joyous country? Bat let one have
the Hay Fever in the same condi
tions and let the smoke and sharp
cinder-dust wake up a'whole gust of
sneezes, acid a rain of tears, growing
every hour worse, and a petty an
noyance becomes something worthy
of regard.
I have my petty annoyances. One
is to sit at the table with people who
eat with loud acclaim, smacking their
[lips, and sounding forth the crush

One may be ashamed to be annoyed
by such bad mouth-manners but
~what is to be done about it? I ant

Then, too, I am greatly annoyed
by the rank perfumes which people

it gentleman, and is 9xpected to be f
gentlemanly, and who will yet suffer ,

His hair is pestiferonsly fragrant, his

tobacco, and yet , he hovers about

men and women without a particle
of consciousness.
NoW, one loves the smell of good
tobacco ; I confess that -a fragrant
cigar, at a little distance, amokediby
a' proper person, in a proper place,
and in proper manner, is not disa
greeable. But in the cabin,. of a •
steamboat, in a parlor, in a railway
car, the first whiff of tobacco smoke
sets me into a combative-mood.

itIinIDOTE OF JOSEPH II•
Many stories are related of the
quaint humors of Joseph IL of Ger
many, and with all his. foibles the
spirit of humanity was hie overmas
tering' genius - The ;Emperor was
walking-tine day alone upon a pub
lic promenade of Vienna, when he
met a young woman who seemed to
be in great distress._
Be spoke with
ber and inquired the cause of her
sorrow. She informed him that she
Was.' the daughter of a petty officer
who had been killed' in 'the imperial
service ; that she and her mother
had fora time been enabled to sup
port themselves by their industry,
bat thairthey we ?e now unemployed,
and rediced to utter want.
Have Non received no assistance
from the government ? " asked Jo
seph.
"None," replied the girl. • _
Wlrti do you -not 'apply the
Emperor'? "
"AbrAvas the reply, with a sad
shake ofl the head, " swat a step
wouldbe Worse than useless." _
‘‘ Why so-1"-
" Because he is cold and stern,and
cares nothing for us who- are poor „
and unfortunate."
" Why do, you think thus ? "
" Because I bare been s° informed
by those - w ° ought to know." • -
"Upon qly life, my good girl,.l
believe, on are sadly mistaken. But
yon shall try for yourself. The Em- -
peror ie my friend, and is indebted
to me. Take this ring, and to-mor
tow morning pre:ient younerf in the
imperial ante-chamber and show it
to the usher. Bring your mother
with you, and fear not. I 'will an
swer fur the consequences."
The girl took the ring, and on the -
following morning she and her moth-•
er appealed at the palace. A nuni-!
her of dignitaries were in waiting for
admission to the imperial presence,
but the presentation of the - ring
gained them precedence.of all oth- ,
era. When the young lady was in-
troduced to the Emperor she beheld
in him her friend of the previous
day,and her first impulse was one
of alarm in_memory of the words that
'she had spoken ; but Joseph quickly
reassured her.
"Be not -afraid," he said, with a
benignant smile; " I have learned
the record of"your btave father, and
upon '3on and, your mother I have
settled a peniion which will insure
you against wait in ,the time to
come. Whatever else in the future
you may believe of Joseph, do not
believe that his heart is cold or ttn

lOC , tlz AND HEART-DISEASE. ,
To k ep the body in perfect health
it mu be duly-oxygenatra There -
must free' and ample lintercluinge
between the blood in the lungs and
the air entering the pulmonary cells.
The life stream, must be purified by
its elimination of carbonic' acid ; it
must be vivified by the absorption of
os gen. The fulfilment of these
conditions -demand' a:full, free and
constant admission of pure air, into
the lungs. This full; free and con
stant admission of pure air cannot
,be obtained in badly :. ventilated
1 houses,: crowded buildings, school
houses (as at present constructed);
theatres, manufactories, pits, Under
grounct-railways and the like. ,
When the - body hat reached the
age at ,which natural decay or de
generation has begun,. the absence
of•pure air hastens and increases.the
degenerative tendency. . Where the -
heart is more prone than other or
gans to disease, :the wantof pure air
tails with powerhil lefPct upon the '
tissues of the right heart. Their nu- ,
trition is defective by reason of the
iwpurity of the blood with , which
they are fed, Their vitallorce is-low
,ered, their muscular fibre loses its
' tenacity, degeneration and debility`
take the place;ipf -active nutrition and
power. If in this condition my
stress is thrown upon the heart, by
hurriedly walking, by lifting, clunb
ing, violent declamation, passional
expression, singing, laughing, 'or by
any unusual exercise of the vOice,
the tricuspid valve gives away, itt
,henceforth fails to clime its aperture, -
'and the result of irleackward flood
ing of blood-upon thvneows system
of the body begin to flf none
of , these exciting causes oc ur, the
c intinued breathing of impure air is
followed by constantly progressing
oegeneration of the tissues of the
valves and muscular structure of the
right. heart : they become soft and
,
feeble • their atoms shrink ; the beg
