There is a . elitti for those who weep,
A rest for weary pilgrims found,
They softly lie, and .needy sleep,
Luw in the ground.
The item that wrecks the wintry 417
No more disturbs their deep repose,
Than summer evening's latest sigh

and laid her hand upon his arm.
"No—yes, not quite well. I had a great
dcai to occupy me yesterday," mid lie arose
from his scat to avoid the scrutiny of those
clear eyes, adding, "if I shouldn't be home
at the dinner hour, Marion, don't wait for
me ; I may be detained by business. And
now kiss me before I go."
"If Walter would only leave that odious
Bank," said Marion to herself; "such a
treadmill life for him to load ; they are
killing him with such close application ;•' -
and she moved about, busying her little
head, devising certain pathetic appeals to
the "Board of Directors" for u mitigation
of his sufferings.
When one is away from a dear friend,
'tis a satisfaction to be employed in per
forming some little service for them, how
trifling so ever it my be. So Marion'
passed into the library, arranging Walter's
books and papers, producing order out .of

a little sketch he had drawn. "Poor Wal

had brought him other dowry than her
pretty face and warm heart.

came not. Marion was not anxious, be.
cause he had prepared her for his absence,
and pushed away her food untested. She
was unfashionable enough . to love him
quite as well (although she bad been mar
ried many happy years,) as on the day
when the priest's blessing fell on her maid

"Come hero, Nettie," said she to a no

nibbled their peus with an appetite; and
the "extras" teemed with exaggerated ac

the saeretluess of the wife's sorrow was in

than would be in June. The butter will
become solid and yellow, aml would hardly
be known from the best butter of the sea

make butter at this season, to make a trial
and see if it is not so.
CURE FOR THE CROUP.—Dr.
Forbes, of Boston, relates, in a late nutn
ber of the Medical Journid, a case in which
a severe attack of croup was cured, by th ,
lapplication of sponges wrung out of hot
water to the throat, together with water
treatment, which he describes as follows
' soon after making the first applioation
of sponges to the thrum. I wrapped the
child in a woollen
.blatiket, wrung out in
warm water as a substitute for a warm
bath, and gave twenty drops of, the wino
of antimony in a little sweetened water.
which site swallowed, with difficulty.' 1

moist sponges lot an hriti„ when the child'
