Fell shtlnes of prayer and marts of gain

One tiny Saiuly Ilijrsins cuiiio into my
oflice and sat tlnwr. without a word. For
Biiiiic minutes lie sat still, watching inn in
tently, as if to tnako out by tho sound of
my n what I was writing.
"Snuiro," lit! said ut lunlli, "did I ever
tell you about my scrapo with thu widow
Horry up hero on thu river "
".Never did," said I, laying down my
pen, "let s liavu it."
"They're, curious creatures, widows is,"
said ho in a meditative tone, "and the more
you study about 'em the more you don't
know nnylhing about 'em. What was this
thins I've read about in r.gypt, or sonio
other couutry, that nobody could unrid
dle; V"
"The Spliyns, probably," I replied.
"Well." lie continued, "that was a wi
dow us sure ns you ever had a granny.
Everything else in the earth has been limnd
out but them, and they'ro an much a mys
tery to-day ns the length of tho North
Pole. You may read the history of tho
world, from (Jenesis to Kevclalious, nnd
you'll find that widows have been nt the
bottom or top ot live quarters ot all the
devilment, that, has been cut up. Was you
ever in lovo with one V"
".Lot's of them," said I.
"You're n great gander that's what you
are," said he. "A man that loves one and
gits over it won't never get bit by another,
if he's got as much sense as it ground-hog.
I don't consider that I've got any sense at
nil, but I'm a little too smart to let another
of them get nil tho trumps on nie. Tho
widow Horry that I was speaking of, is a
little tho handsomest woman, I reckon,
that ever looked a man into tits, and I
ought to be n judge, for I've seen lots of
pretty women 'in my day. Shu was about
twenty-live years old when I went up there
to work, just in the bloom of her beatuy.and
ns full ol deviltry ns a three-year old uiu'e
colt. There was a ball over ut Jenkins's,
and of course 1 went, for I always go whero
there's any fun going on, nnd generally net
the fool before I get away. Of course, tho
widow was there, dressed ns line as Solo
tnuu's Uiies, nnd flying around as frisky ns
a young lamb in a rye pateh. I g"t intro
duced to her and asked her to dance Willi
me, and when she flashed hereyisatiuo
nnd k till 'yes' I jumped up like I had sit
down on a griddle. You may talk about
sensation, but when she look hold of my
hand and sorter sipiee.ed it, I felt it sensa
tion as big u h a load of wood, nnd it kept
running up and down my back like a sqir
rel with n hawk alter him. I'm very fond
of daneint;, but be hanged if I know
whether 1 enjoyed it that night or nt, for
every time aim took hold of my hand I'd
commence feeling curious behind the ems
and up nnd down my back again, and then
1 wouldn't know whether I was ou earth or
in a balloon, or uu a comet, unythiugubout
it. It was undoubtedly a case of lovo ut
lii'st Hight, nnd a powerful bad ease at that.
For a wonder I got through tlie frolic with
out making myself coiihu nous or cutting

"Mice and men, IJurns says." I answer
etl. "Well, mice and rats is all one, nnd so
is men and fools sometimes, as I have found
in my travels. I was so sure sho would
havo mo that I went off and spent all my
money for fine clothes, thinking I would
have them ready for tho 'wedding and I
did I Confound that widow. I say I Con
found all the widows I Thursday evening
came at Inst, although It was a long tinio
nuout it, ami over X went, dressed Into tits,
nnd feeling ns big as Josh Haynorclid when
he was elected coroner. I got thero about
dark, nnd fotttid a right smnrt crowd col
lected, which wns not on tho bills, but I
felt ns big and as good as tho rest of 'cm.
So I marched in like a blind mule into a
Fotnto patch, and took a scat by tho tire,
didn't see anything of tho widow, but I
kept looking for her to come lu and send
for me, and pnssed nway tho time by cussin'
tho crowd to myself, thinking they had no
business there, and I would not gel to talk
to my woman n bit. Presently tho door
opened nnd in wnlked Folly nnd thnt dnd
burued doctor, nnd a whole team of boys
and girls fixed up BavngMy, I tell you. I
looked around for a fiddler, thinking they
were going to havo a ball, but I wondered
what they nil kept so Btill for, nnd was
nbotit proposin' a reel, when up gits a little
preccher, nnd before you could swallow n
live oyster, he had Folly nnd tho doctor
married faster than a Mexican greaser
could tie n bull's horns. I was so com
pletely tUimixed that I set thero with my
mouth open likn 1 wasgoin' to swallow tho
whole crowd, nnd my eyes looked liko bil
liard balls till the ceremony was over, when
I jumped up nnd bellowed
" 'I forbid the concern from buiug consti
tuted !'
" 'You nrc a little too late, my friend,'
says the preacher, and they all commenced
laughing liko they had seen something funny-
' 'I'll bo ditrned squizzlod if I don't be
soon enough for somebody yet,' said I, for
I was mad. fctpiirc, nnd no mistake in the
ticket. fIdo believe 1 could have eat up
that doctor quicker than a hungry dog
could swallow a squirrel skin, if I could
have had a fair chance nt him. It was
too bad, after I had fixed up to marry her
myself, for her to walk right out under my
eyes nnd marry thnt great baboon."
"It was bad, that is a fact," said I.
"Bad !" cried he, "it was meaner than
eating fried coon. I first thought I'd go
straight home, but then 1 concluded that
wouldn't spite nobody, so I determined to
stay and see if I could not get satisfaction
out ol somebody. You know I'm the devil
to get myself or somebody else into a scrape
when I take a notion, and I'd taken one
that night that went ail over me liko a
third-day chill, so I comnieuccd a study-in'
out some plan. I recollected hearing the
doctor say that where he como from, (but
the Lord only knows where thnt was.) the
bride nnd groom always washed their faces
together before they went to bed. ns a
charm ngainst infidelity or imbecility, or
some other long word. While I was study
in' about Hint, I spied the doctor's saddle
bags setting in Ibc corner, so 1 waited till
they went in to supper, and then I got the
bags and looked to see what I could dis
cover. Xenrly the first thing I saw was n
piece of lunar caustic. I slipped it into my
pixket. fur I had my plan ns I saw it.
Well, I watched around till I saw one of
the girls go to the pail with the pitcher, so
1 went out nnd nxked her what she was
going to do with it. Sho said she was go
ing to carry it into the room for the Doctor
and Folly to wash, their faces in. I kept
talking to her while she was filling the
pitcher, nnd when she turned her head, I
dropped tlie caustic, into it. It was then
about, bed time and I gut my hat and put
out, but I couldn't 1 1 -! p laughing nil the
way home, whenever I'd think about next
morning.
"Well, Kquhv, they do say that when
that couple waketl tip early next morning
I they hoth had the hardest kind ot Ills, eaeli
j one' thinking that they had been sleeping
rwith a nigger. Oh, it was rich ! lie a
cussin' and tcariu' up thiugs, aud shea
screuinin' and faintin' and cotnin' to und
goiu' olfngain, and tne not thero to koo it.
They made such a rascally racket that the
folks broke into tho room to see what was
thu matter, nnd thero they was with their
faces aud hands all us black ns tho inside
of an oltl stove-pipe. I'd a give half of my
interest iu t'other world jttMt lo have been
nt some place where I could have seen the
whole row. As soon ns they had found
out that they was really the same folks
that was married the night In Tore, they
called for warm water ami soap, but Jtut
here the doctor h:i iH iinl to think about
the pitcher, and took it to t ho door to see
what was the matter. There was a little
piece of caustic that had not dissolved, and
I soon ns hu saw it, he says :
" 'It's no unit washing. Folly. All the
soap in New ork city can't wu-h that oil.'
"That was Urn ti titii. Squire. Soap and
water had no more cili-ct I ban it would on
n native boni African, and all the chance
was to wail aud It t it wear oil', llow long

eoni'iu'letl, getting up to go out. thu next

It cnu bo approprintrd by nil nges nnd
conditions of mnnkind. The high and the
low. the rich nnd tho poor, tho good nnd
the bad, the happy nnd the miserablo are
susceptible of Its influcuco, and benefitted
by it. Humanity is actuated by many con
flicting influences which accomplish dilfer
ent results."
In tlio "battle of life" many faint or be
come way-worn nnd wenry, whilo others
grow proud, cold, hntd, nnd defiant.
Then kindness lias a work to do. hat
the
kin
gentle Bhower is to the drooping vcrduro
dness is to tho desponding lienrt. It
lifts it up to the higher regions of cheerful
ness and duty ; it wins it bnek from gloom
nnd despair ; it imparts new life nnd vigor
to its impulses, and encourages it to "do
nnd bear" yet a little whilo longer. But
thero are even greater works to 1ki accom
plished than this. More to be pitied than
those who realizo that they sulfur are thoso
who have been inndo callous by sulfering,
thoso who havo shut kindly impul
ses from their hearts, who have becomo in
different to the wants nnd woes of others,
having no sympathy with their Joys nor
balm of their sorrows. Life must of had
some experience for them to produce such
results. O, kindness, thine be tho work to
mako the barren wnste and wilderness of
their nature to blossom like the rose I Thou
alone canst uproot the uoxious weeds nnd
poisonous vines of distrust, jealousy, nnd
suspicion, nnd implant confidence, tender
ness, nnd benevolence. What a horriblo
sensation it would bo to feel one's self
gradually petrifying to realizo that tho
liugers that were so nimble yesterday were
, , . , , ., . .
still and clumsy to-day, nnd that in tho
near future they would be cold nnd impres-
siotiiess its marble to know mat tno eyes
that now sparkle with life aud
feeling would soon emit but a glassy glare?
Yet more terrible iu its results is tho petri
fication of the soul ; all kindly emotions
nnd tender sympathies bound un in stony
fetters. A dillicult, task is thine, O, kind
ness 1 to unloose them ; but thou nlouc art
able. Kindness, us exhibited by human
ngeneies, lias livntu-nlly neen instrumental
iu winning back those who were fast piling-
. . , g. . . - ' ,
mg int" the nbyts of sin and shame, and
assisted them to the heightsou which stand
the fair temples of honor and uprightness.
Anathemas und scorn will not restore
nny one to the path of safety who has wan
dered from it. They will only drive them
down deeper ; make" them harder, nnd wil
ling to dare nnd defy thoso who denounce
them. 1'iUt a kind word, a lender interest,
will often awaken emotions to which even
they bad deemed themselves strangers.
Visit the poor criminal in iiis cell. Does
the blush of shame stain his cheek nnd dye
his forehend when you tell him his name is
ti by-word nnd reproneh to his race ? Does
he show any symptoms of sorrow or re
pentance when you reproach nnd revile
i i i in V Does he uot rather brave nnd scorn
you V 5ut when you to 1 him that even
now, when most of the woi Id forsakes some
still cling to him nnd would administer
comfort by their prcseneo or by loving
messages ; when you let him see that you
do not utterly loathe him ns a foul blot on
this fair creation, do not the hot tears well
up to his eyes and his hi art throb -with
lender and grateful, yet painful emotions '(
Would he not willingly undo the evil of his
past career, mako his failures from duty
successes, for the sake of thoso who think
of him so kindly ? Xot only is kindness
tho most powerful and cllieacious in saving
the lost, but it is a guard and shield to in
nocence, llow many thnt uru honorable,
pure nnd good to-day that would havo fal
len stive for its power I Tho kindness and
love of a mother have been the shield aud
buckler of many a bravo son, tho strong
tower in which' he has been safe when the
tempter wns nigh. Hut, though the work
of this heaven-born power is it great one,
it. dot s not despise the day of small things,
if such thero be. The liltle child's heart
opens and expands to receive it ; the path
of the aged is cheered by its presence ; the
piorfoiget half their sorrows when kind
hearts show their sympathy. Then be
kind -, act kindly, speak kindly. The cir
cles from a tiny pebble widen and widen
until they reach the farther shore. So the
influence of words and acts of yours extends
through all the future ages.
"Thi-ra Is then no ili't h fur a wor.l on spoken,

Written on tables never broken."
Uo kind to the little ones, the cares of
life will como soon; be kind to tho aged,
they have not long to slay ; l kind to the
poor, I hey havo enough to U nr without
your adding to their burdens ; bo kind to
the happy, damp uot their Innocent mirth ;
bo kind to your-iclvcs, lives, so remorse

Hoys, don't hang round tho corners of
the streets. If you havo anything to do,
do it promptly, risht.on,3then;;Ro home.
Home is the ptneo for boys. About the
street corners, nnd nt tho stables, they
learn to talk slang, and they learn to swear,
to smoke tobacco, nnd to donianyotbcr
thiugs which they ought uol to do.
Do your business, and'thenggo home. If
your business is piny, play, and make a
business of it. I liko to see boys piny good,
earnest, lirnlthy games. If I were in the
town, I would give tho boys a good spa
cious play ground. It should have plenty
of soil, green grass, nnd trees, nnd foun
tains, nnd broad spnee to run and jump,
and to piny suttablo plays. I would mako
it as pieasnnt, as lovely as it could bo, and
I would give it to tho bovs to play in, nnd
when tho play wns ended 1 would toll thnm
to go home. For when boys hang nround
street corners nnd stables, they get sloucliy
nnd listless. Of all things, I dislike a list
less boy or girl. 1 would have a hundred
boys like n hundred yachts, with every spar
straight nnd every ropo taut, the decks nnd
sides clenn, the rigging nil in order, nnd
everything ready to slip tho cable, nnd fly
before tho wind when the word comes to
go. l!ul this caunot be, if you loungo

woman, whether ns mother, wife or sister,
is uhiDst lost. To nil women-haters ; to
bachelors of over forty yenrs' standing ; to
nil men who seek refuge from the wiles nnd
ways of the opposite sex. this region can.
be safely recommended ns a liavcu of re
fuge. It is a notable fact thatt!io burning of
property in nil parts of thrj Slato is ruoro
destructive at present than was ever known
before- Kvery exchange we open contains
an account of tho burning of n dwelling or
of some property us'-d for manufacturing
liurnoses. The number of these conllagra-
! lions is remarkable.

FitOKiTAin.E Fotvj.:. A writer who is
evidently well posted on the "chicken
question," says that it is a well-concedod
fact that there is great advantage in im
liroved stock of horses, cattle, sheep and
hogs. A thorough progressive farmer aims
to secure propogate these. If wo examine
the various reports, wo will learn that
poultry is a great interest iu this country,
and to secure the most profit ou this species
of farm stock our farmers should secure im
proved varieties. In stead of bringing to
market long-legged, sinall-hodied chickens,
weighing, say two pounds, they should sup
ply our markets with a stock weighing four
or six pounds, and these should be sold by
weight. The little lank scrawny chickens
that many of our farmers have now, nnd
which furnish eggs about the size of pigeons'
egs, should give place to chickens laying
twice ns much, and we should soon bo rid
of the degenerate raco of fowls nnd small
eggs now broght to market. Willi the samo
feed nnd lielter care, llie farmer might real
ize more than doublo what he now docs for
his chickens, nnd inure for his eggs. Few
realize the profit on a good stock of fowls.
The produce of oik! hen will pay for your
