"You are more hopeful than I, Jane, Day after day J have been in search of employment. ' I bavo called at fifty places, only to receive' the same answer everywhere." Just then little Jimmy, wlio had been rcleep, woko up. "Mother," he' pleaded, "won't you give me a piece of bread T I am so hiiiitrry." ' f' There 14 no bread, Jimmy, darl ing," said mother with an aching heart. "When will there bo some?" asked the child, pilcotialy. Tears came to tho mother's eyes. She knew unt what to say. "Jimmy, I'll briugyou some bread," said the father hoarsely, and ho seized his hat and went to tho door. His wife, nlarnicd, laid her hand upon his sleeve, tjhe saw tho look in his eyes, and she feared to what- l p desperation might lead him. "Uetuember, Itobert," she said, solemnly, "It is hard to starve, but there are things that are worse." He shook off her band, but not roughly, and without ft jytsnj passed out. Out in the cold streets ! They would be his only homo next, he thought. Fur a brief time longer lie i.ad the shelter of a cheerless room in a cold tenement house, but the rent would become due at the end of the month, and he bad nothing to meet it. Robert Brice was a mechanic, com petent and skillful. Three years since he lived in a country village, whore bis expenses were moderate, and he found no difficulty in meeting them. But in an evil hour be grew tired of his village home, and he re moved to tho city. For a while be met with very good success, but he found tho tenement house in which he was obliged to live a poor substi tute for the ueat little cottage which be had occupied in the country. He saw his mistake, but was to proud to go back. ,' 0f eourso I can't have as good ac comodations hero as iu the country," he said, "but it is something to live iu, and be in the midst of things." "I'd rather bo bnck' again," said bis wife. "Somehow tho eitv doesn't secra like home. There I used to run in and take tea with a neighbor, aud have a pleasent social tini6. Here I tuow cuarcolv anybody. "You'll get used to it after a while," said her husband. . tiho did net tliiuk co, i)ut sho did Dot complain. But the time of great depression came, and with ii. a suspension wf busi ness enterprises. Work ceased for Robert Brice apd many others. If he bad been in his old home, ha could have turned his hand to something else, and at worst could have borrowed from his neighbors till better '.iincs But the friendly relations arising from neighborhood 'uo ftot csist in Cio city to the same extent as in the country, So, day by day, ha saw his scanty sum ot tuouey passing away, nrid no one extended a helping hand. Day by day he went out to seek work, only to find himself one f a large number, all of whom were doomed to disoypoint nicnt. If he had been alone be could have got along somehow, but it was a sore trial to come to a cheerless room, and a pale wife and hungry children, with no reliet to oiler them. weat into the street, he hardly knew how ho was going to redeem the"prom ise he had mads to little Jimmy. He was absolutely penniless, and been so for three days. There wns nothing he was likely to find to do that night. "I will pawn my coat," he said at last ; "I cannot see my wife and chil dren starve." ' It was a woll worn overcoat, and that cold winter night hi needed some thing more to keep hitii Warm. Weak ened by the enforced fasting he' was more sensitive to the cold, and shiver ed as he walked along the pavement. "Yes," he said, "my coat must go. I know not how I shall get along without it, but I can't see the children starve before my eyes." He was not in general an envious man, but when he saw sleek, well-fed citizens,' buttoned up to the throat in warm overcoats, come out of the bril liantly lighted ehops, provided aith luxuries for happy children at horr.e, while his were starving, he suffered somo hitler thoughts upon the ine quality of Fortune's gifts, to come to hiq mind. ' ' Why should they be so happy and he so miserable?. There was one man, shorter than himself, warmly clad, who passed him with his hands thrust deep into the pockets of h'n overcoat. There was a pleasant smilo upon his face. He was doubtless thinking of the hapnv cirsle at home. Robert know-phim as a rich merchant, whose ample warehouse he often passed. He had applied to this man only two days before tor employment, and teen refused. It was, perhaps, the thought of the wide difference between them, so fur ns outward circumstances went, that led Robert Brice to follow him After awhile. ' the merchantMr. Grimes, drew his handkerchief slowly from his pocket. And ho did net per ccive that his pocket book camo with it and fell to the sidewalk. He did not prceivo it but Robert did, his heart leaped into his mouth, and a sudden thought entered his mind Ho bent quickly down and picked tip tho nocket-book. lie raisen 1113 eyes hastily to see if tho niovcmeut was uo ticed. It wns not. The merchant went on unheeding his loss. "This will buy bread for roy wife and chldren, thought Hubert instant v. A vision ot the comtori wnicu 1110 money would bring tnaiciiecncss room lighted uo his heart forsn instant, but then, for he was not dishonest, there camo another thought that the money wns not his, much a he wanted it. "But I cannet see my wile and chil dreu starve." he thought asain. "It it is wrong to keep this money, God will understand my motive. All this was sophistry, ond ho knew it. In a moment he tclt it to bo so. There was some things worse than Starvation. It was his wifo that had said that just before bo came out. Could he meet her gaze when he returned with food so obtained. "I've liv.d honest s far," ho though "I won t turn thipf now. It was villi an effort he came to this decision; for all the while before his eves there was that yision .ofa cheerless hofye, and he could hear Jimiuio vainly asking' for food. It was with an effort ho stepped forward nnd placed his hand on the ruerchents shoulder, aud extended the hand that held the pocket-book. "Sir," ha said, hoarsely, "you havo dropped your pocket-book: ' "Thank you," 6aid the r.-.cruhaat, turning round, " I hadn't perceived my lois." "You dropped it when you took out your hankerchief." "And you saw it and picked it tip. 1 am very much obliged to you." "You have reason to be," said Robert in a low voice. "Icame very near keeping it." "That would havo been dishonest, said Mr. Grimes, his tone altering slightly. "yes, it would, but it's hard for a ma if to be honest when ho is penniless aud his wife children without a crust." "Suiely, you and your family are n t in that couditioti!" said the merchant earuesaly. "Yes," said Robert, "it it only too true." "And you are out of work?" "For two months have I vainly sought for work. I applied to you two days since." "I remember you now. I thought I had seen your face before. Yeu still want work." "I should feel grateful for it," A porter left Bie yesterday. Will you take his place at $12 a week?" "IV.ukfully, sir; I will work for halfef that." "Then come to-morrow morning, or as to-morrow will be a holiday, the-day succeeding. Meantime take this for your present necessities." He drew from his pocket be ok a "It's $50," said Robert, amazed. "I know it. This pocket-book con tains $1,000. But for you, I should have lost the whole. "God bless you sir; good night," said Robert." "Good night!" Jane waited for her husband, in the cold and cheerless room, which for a few days longer, she might call her heme. "Do you thiuk father will bring me soma bread?" asked little Jimmic, as he nestled in her lap. "I hope so, darling, she said, but her heart ruisiiave her. She feared it was a delusive hope. Au hour passed there was a step on the stairs her husband's it could not bo, for this was a cheerful, elastic step, com inc; ap two stairs at a time. She looked eagerly at the door. Yes, it was he. The door opened Robert, radiaut with joy, entered with a basket-lull if substantial provisions. "Have you got some bread, tatuor? asked Jitnraie, hopefully. 'ics, Jitntme, bread aud meat, from a restaurant, and here s a little tea and sugar. 1 here s a little wjod lelt, dano. Let S have a bright tire and a comtor- tablo meal, for please God, this shall be a comfonable night. "How did it happen? loll me Kob ert." So Robert told his wife, and soon a bright fire lighted up the before cheer less room. Tho next week they moved to a bet ter home, lhey have never since known what it it t want. Robert found a firm friend in the Savings Bank, and' l;as reasen to remember with a gratefulTieart, God's goodness en the eve of temptation. jj . The Ureat V eaters Farm Inaarance Co.-Llf Insurance and Farnl Insurance. BY TROF. J. D. BUTLER. Life insurance means honesty for tome men and policy lor many more In no other way can they pay thei debts, or obey the apostle's chargo that a man "provide for hit own and cs pecially those of ais own house. But good at is the life insurance, farm insurance in the shape ol lands sold on ten years credit is better. ' Ijoth give a great prize in rettt.n fo a number of suiall annual payments, But farm insurance gives that boon in the midst of life, insurance only at the end of it. One gives for a man Lira self to enjoy, the ether euly for his heirs. Clue performs, the other prom ise. "Death, said an Irishman, "it no great curse for it always comes just where wc would havo it, at the end of life aud never at the beginning." Bu this is more than can be said of life in surancc, for its blessings come at the wroii end of life, not, like death au farm insurance, at the right end. Besides, iu farm insurance the pay ments arc nine or ten, but in life lusur a nee they may bo so multitudinous thut they will amount to several times the value ot the prize drawn at last. The one is a lottery, the other iquarT dcalin Again,' farm insurance gives you i the outset a mine which pays for itsc! for out ot it you can di" net only living but gold for all payments. Life iusurance makes no such pretentions. It is all post mortem and nothing the living present." In this aspect life insurance resembles the patent lauta lus of Sidney Smith. That reverend joker had a bag of oats hung before tfie tongue of his carriage, lho horse hear! ii 1; the oaU tattle just ahead would Tiish forward with all his legs, yet could never quite thrust h.s nose into the dainties. On the other hand farm insurance gives a mess of grain before the iouruey begins, and all along mauy a tia'iting to prepare ft each hard pull before the homestretch Nor is this all. What life iusurance promises is a fixed sum. But the land giveu by farm iusurance is always growing in value. Leas than tort years ago the wliolearca of Iowa could have been bought for forty millions of dollars. It was told by the United Stales for less than that. To-day it would bring more than ten timet that sum. Give me then first farm insurance and then life insurance. Within thirty-three months, tb Great Western Farm Insurance Com pa 11 v. alias the Burlington & Misseu ri River railroad compauy, have told along their line, in Iowa aud XSebrae ka, 478 98 acres to 4, 525 purchasers, on teu years, credit, and six per cent, interest. J hey now require no pay tnent en the priucipal till the end four years after purchase. Farmer? are you insured? An orator getting warmed with h subject, exclaimed, "There is not man, woman or child in the house who has arrived at the age of fifty years but what hat felt this trut thuudering through their minds for TKAXJFIXEn. The following rare bit is from the Saturday Evening Tost: We shall never forget that evening we spent at Magruder's a year ago. We admired Miss Magruder, acd wo went around to see her. It was summer time, and moonlight, and she sat upon the piazza. The carpenter h&d been there that day, glueing up the rustic cbs,irs cn the porch, to we took a scat cn tho step on the front of Miss Magruder, where we could gaze into her eyes and drink in her smiles. It teems probable" that the carpenter must lave upset his clue-pot on the toot where we tat for after enjoying Miss Magruder't remarks for a couple of hours, and drinking several ef her ftnile9, we tried to rise for the pur pose of going home, but found that w.e were immovably fixed to the tt?p. Then Miss Magruder said: "Don't be n a hurry, ad we told her we bclicv ed we wouldn't. The conversation had a sadder tone after that, and we sat tbero thinking whether it would be belter to nslc Miss Magruder to withdraw while we disrobed and went homo in Highland cotumsjor whother we should urge her to warm up the poker, or whether we should give one terrific wrench and then ramble dewn the yard backward. About midnight Miss Magruder yawned, and said she believed she would go to bed. Then we suddenly asked her it she thought her father' would bavp apy objection! to lending hit lront steps a few days, because we wanted to take them -homo for a pattern. We think Miss Ma gruder must have entertained doubts of our sanity, for she rushed in, called her father and screamed. Magruder came down with a double-barreled gun. Then we explained the situation in a whisper, and he procured a taw and cut out tho pifeco of step to which we were aiiacneu. xnen wo weni home wearing the patch, and before two o'clock crushed out our young love for Miss Magruder. We never called again, and she threw herself away on a dry goods man. There it a melancholy satisfaction mrccalling these memories of youth, and reflec tion upon the influence of glue upon the emotions of the human heart. A TEKY URAVK MISTAKE. The following originated we believe with the Montpelier (Vl) Journal: A certain marble dealer, residing not a hundred miles from this village, re cently received an invoice of grave stones, upon some of which were in scribed touching sentiments of sym pathy and eulogy ready made for the fortunate person whose 'tomb they were intended to designate. Among them was one with an index ' finger pointing heavenward, and uuder it the motto, "No graves there." One evening this dealer received an order for a grave stone, the style aud decor ation of which were left pretty much to his own judgment, the price only being fixed. As he had to leave tho city the next morning, ho hurriedly selected the stone bearing the above motto. The indignation of the surviv ing relatives of Mr. Graves, fur whose cemetery lot this ttone was intended, when it was received,' can he better imagined than described. The Tort Dodge (Iowa) Mttt-n$tr offers the' foll6wing satirical protest against pardon aud conciliation for the Ku-KIux of the South : "The recent pardoning of the South Carolina murderers, and the success ful slaughter of the negroes in Grant parish, has warmed the Ku-Klux of the South into renewed activity. They have notified the United States Reve nue Collector in the third distaict of Tennessee that cortan officers must leave that district within thirty days, or both they and himself will beatnur dered. The Democratic ' papers will doubtless hold'G.anl responsible for all outrages iu that section, unless he promptly orders that collector and other United Statct officers to leave that country, and thut relieve their excited brothers of their isritat.cg presence." ... The New York 7W6un lays : Mitt Greeley being very desirous to obtain at many at possible of the letters of her father, the late Horace Greeley, will esteem it a great favor on the part of any of his frieudr having letters of interest written by bim, if they will kindly enclose tuch 'lettert to her by mail, that the may take 'copies, after which the will return the original .to their teyeral owners.
