CLEARFIELD, PA., APRIL 26,
What Jessie Lost in the Brook.
Jessie was a little girl going to school.
She had her spelling book, and slate pencil,
and sewiug work, and thimble, and a Dox of
beads and she had time too. l(Jood bye,
mother," she said, kissing her. ' Good
bye, my dear," said mother, "don't lose a
nything." ' "
A little brook crossed the road on Jessie 8
way to schooL It was running to the river,
and it ran very fast. Jessie stopped to look
on it as it twinkled in the sun. .She stoop- j
ed down and put in her hand to stop it. It
would not be stopped. It jumped over her
hand and through her fingers, and ran off as
fast as it could. While Jessie was playing
with the water she lost something. But
she did oc t miss it then. I should not won
der if the water's not stopping put the little
girl in mind that she ought not to stop ; so
she jumped up and hurried to school.
When she got to school the door was lock
ed, and a card with staring letters "Late ! ! '
hung at the door. - 0 dear, dear," cried
Jessie very much vexed; ' 'now I shall get
a bad mark, for I have no excuse." When
the door was unlocked, she went in; and at
noon she told Miss Marvin how it happened
the was late.
"You met with a serious loss at the
brook, did you not, Jessie?" said Miss Mar
vin, "something you can never find."
"Loss!" said Jessie, looking up surpris
ed. "I did not miss anything. It was not
my spelling book, surely?"
"A greater loss than your spelling book,
because the book might be jacked up," said
the teacher. "Not my silver thimble?"
eaid Jessie, feeling in her pocket. "A sil
ver thimble could be found," said Miss Mar
vin, "this cannot be."
"Did you think that I lost my box of
beads?" asked Jessie. "If you had, I sup
pose vou can ""easily buy another box." "So
I could a slate pencil if I lost that." "Yes
said Miss Marvin ; "but what you lost can
not be found or bought again, nor can it be
made up any way ; it is lost forever." "O,"
paid Jessie, looking sorry and puzzled.
"But what is it, Miss Marvin?"
"It is lost time, Jessie," said the teacher.
"Yes," said the little, girl, blushing,
"that I did lose bvthe brook. I lost time."
"And you missed it very much when you
got to.the school room door, " said the teach
er. " O I did, Miss Marvin," said Jessie,
"I did, I would have given anything for a
minute more."
But a minute lost can never be got back
it is gone forever. Nor can one be borrow
ed, or bought or begged. A rick woman
who had not long to live once cried out :
"Thousands of pounds for an inch of time!"
But thousands of pounds could not buy it.
God gives every child golden minutes e
oough to use,but none to lose. Sperd them
my Tittle ones, in such a manner that you
may give for every day
'Soma good account atlast."
Th N. York Herald chronicles this pro
voking mistake : "In April, 1861, Mrs.
Jeff. Davis promised an early visit to the
White I louse at W ashington; in April, lbbo,
Mrs. Lincoln in a journey to Richmond, re
turns the promised call, and finds Mrs. Da
vis 'not at home' gone, perhaps, to Wash
ington. Such is life."
An artist invited a gentleman to criticise
a portrait he had painted of Mr. Jenks,
who was given to drink. Putting his hand
towards it, the artist exclaimed: "Don't
touch it, it is not dry." "Then," said he,
"it cannot be my friend Jenks."
A nerson in nublic com nan v. accusing the
- Irish nation of being the most unpolished in
the world, was mildly answered by an Irish
man. "It ought to be otherwise, for the I
rish met with bard rubs enough to polish
any nation upon earth,

"John," said a stingy old hulk to his hir

The South made war for the sake of her
negroes and has lost them. Seldom have
we known so striking an exemplification of
the saying about going for wool and coming

Seeing an ironclad, he said to a boy, "Is

'Tis a sad thing when men have neither
heart enough to speak, well, nor judgment
enough to hold their tongues; this is the

WAR TIMES-
I will not, here attempt to enumerate all the ai ti
des I keep; and their fabulously low price
which I might do but after you will hare 8o-n
and examined for yourselves, you will exclaim, is
the language of the Qaeen of the South
"HALF HAS NOT BEEN TOLD "
I will merely say, come and see tor yourselves,
for I feel satisfied that I can suit your tastos as
well as your purses
Lumber and all kinds of produce also taken in
exchange for goods.
