KAKT'S "50."
fhe it fair ni very pretty,
With a sparkling bright blue eye,
And her cheeks with smiles are dimpltfd
When she know I'm standing by.
Tstshe says 'he does not love me
Never "ill wife of mine ;
But those smiles and dimples tell me
With despair I need not pine.
,S I let her meet my pleadings
With her bright and saucy smile,
And I bow before the archness
Lighting op her face the while ;
Listening with a feigned emotion,
And a put on look of woe ;
For I love to hear her accent
See ber lips when saying "No'
Lore to see the graceful action
Of her foot npon the gronnd ;
As its tiny sole she patters
There is music in the sound.
And the words come to my hearing
Sweet as murmurs of the dove ;
Far I know their hidden meaning,
Read them in the light of love.
Thus, though still she "So' is saying.
I, at home have n'imed the day ;
Aad her mother smiles while weeping
Swiftly wings the honrs away ;
And my Mary is the fondest.
Dearest of my children three ;
Why net wait a little longer ?
Why this harry?" questions she.
Hot my ear is deaf to pleading,
Vainly all ezouses flow ;
For my Mary Hi? tens blushing.
And no more she whispers "No."
Bo tcy life grows fair and joyous,
Winning every new delight.
From the thought that I hare won her
Iron my leve, my life, my light!
SEEING TOR HIMSELF.
"Iid you change those buttoqs on my
vest. Fannie?" ajked Edwin Barton, after
lighting hi meerschaum and taking up his
paper for the evening.
'"O Ned ! I aru aorry ; but indeed I for
got it. I have Si ad so many things extra to do
to lay, and Frankie lias been so fretful."
Xcd prowled, husband fashion, about wo
men having "nothing to do." and then pro
duce! a letter from his Autit Patience which
he read as follows :
"Peaii Nf.I'UEW: Jut as soon as you
r.'teive this,I want you to get a d:y's leave
from your office and come to see me. As
life is very uncertain, and delays are dan
gerous, I thiuk every iteasible person ought
to set their affairs all right... There .are
several letters I want written, and my busi
ness needs a peneral fixing up. But, most
particularly. I want you to come and go
with me to put Tom Damson out from off
the lower farm. I am determined to mako
h;m give np posM.-sion immediately. He :
has laken no notice of the money letter you
wrote him. I do not wit-h to go to law
with him, for 'them that has the least to do
with the law are the best off.' Be. sure you
couie thuralay. I will have a dinner you
like. Ihn't disappoint me. Your loving
unt, Patience Ketchlm."
"There now! Isn't that provoking? I
would sooner give fifty dollars (if I had it)
than go yet I dare not make the old lady
angry. You see Fan, I never sent any let
ter to Touj. Poor fellow he has had so
much to pull him back this season, I was
sot going to worry him. lie told me hi
own house would be ready for him in the
spring, and then he wuuld go 1 But Aunt

if I go, she will carry me there to get him
out. Then there will be in a pretty scrape.
Wis there ever a man so beset with other
poopW troubles, as I?"
"1 ou g, Nannie dear, and tell that pe
nurious, hard hearted old he 1 excuse me
that economical, praisworthy, aged rela
tive of mine, that we aie dreadfully bony at
the office; but just as soon as I can get a

'Wait a moment, Fan. If you will
mother things up for hei, and not let her
thmk hard of me, I'll buy you a sewing ma
chine before the mouth's out."
"Of course I'll go, Ned, if you wish, and
Jo the best I can for aunty and you too.
ever wind about the sewing machine; we
n not afford that just yet. You know I
sent the cook away because I want to econ
omize. I can go very well to-day, jou will
hve but little to do, and Dick can attend
oiajot every thing, if you make him un
Jeraiao.i ju-,t what you want. He is a bright
!U darkey, and will amuse Frankie while
"tt real What time do the cars leave ?' '
j'Not until fihecn minutes of eight. You
ill leave at hall past seven."
Come Xed, hurry up and dress. Break -"w

Uf- whed and dressed Frankie, and
j is asleep again, and will remain so for an
our r lw, if yoa will keep the room qui--
Sow listen ! let me tell yon, just what
! Qd how to get on. I have fixed
pie, cake, jelly and pickles on the side
toard ready for you, and placed napkins
ao on in case any one should drop in,
?3 you should want to give them lunch.
Y. ter you have done your breakfast,
take out the roll's I've just put in
f-f oven, and then put in the loaf of bread ;
K u not qui light enough now. You can

n man, not a child, and think I hare

u the baking of a loaf of bread."
yt don't get cross; make Dick
pthe breakfast thing, keep np the
two fires, sweep up the kitchen and that is
all. I will run up stairs and make the bed.
Good-bye Ned, do be careful of the baby,
and mind, don't foreget the bread." And
she- tripped off, then darting back she said ;
"O Ned ! I forgot to tell you, I put out
some tea in a cup and coffee in another ; so
you can make which you choose. Keep
some hot for me. Good-bye."
Frankie was sleeping sweetly when Ed
win Barton returned to his room, after fin
ishing his breakfast and providing for Dick,
with the directions to clear up as Mr.'Bar
ton said.
Loking arround the room, he espied a
picture that was not in the exact position,
and providing himself with a hammer, he
withdrew the hook, selected the proper
place to hang it, and went to work.
This unusual noise awoke Frankie, who
very soon sent forth a loud wail of fright
and complaint In vain the father tried to
soothe the little one; at length Dick's ser
vices were called into play.
"Deed Muter Barton, I'se 'spects you
made racket and scared him. I'se ain't
done de dishes yit," answered Dick.
"Never mind sir. I suppose there are
more clean dishes if they are wanted. You
come here and try to quiet the baby."
But Frankie would scream in spite of all
Dick's endeavors. At last he struck a
bright idea.
"If you let me 0 in next door and git
Harry Blame (Blain) to cum in wid his'n
playthings, dat will muse him."
So little Harry came, and Frankie yield
ed to his influence and became quite pleas
ant. Ned read his paper, lighted his meer
schaum, and finally found a pair of scissors
and began his long threatened piece of
work, in truth, (amusement,) namely, cut
ting and twisting lamp-lighters. The waste
pieces of paper he threw on the carpet,
which were directly caught up by the little
ones, and contributed much to their amuse
ment, and future discomfort of Frankie and
his father. But I must not anticipate.
Noon came, and Harry bade adieu, and
in a short time the baby began to grow
quite resless, and continued to grow worse.
Ned took him up and to do him justice I
must say endeavored in every way to amuse
him.
"Dick, what is the matter with him now,
is he hungry?"
'No deed, sir. I'is fed him. 'Specthe
misses his mammy. 'Spect may be how
yon d'm't h jle him easy."
bo it seemed, for as the father pressed
the little one in his arms louder grew the
screams.
ao passed the time with little intermis
sion, until late in tue afternoon.
"I mus' go tode djor, sir the bell dun
rung, said Dick.
I'on t you let any one in. I am out,
you hear, boy?
In a few minutes Dick called up :
'Gemmen say how you will see him, an'
I tole him how you lay you out too "
"Ned it is only I. Let me come up:
Join Merryman? Oh! all right. Come
up, perhaps you can help me here. Do you
know anything about baby tending? Thi;
youngster has a spell of well, I don't know
what!"
And Ned proceeded to explain how it was
he was home in Fannie's place.
"Yes, I can help you I think. Bless you
boy it is "tctW" that is the matter with
him. I know all about it. When sister
Jennie's baby cries, that is what they all
say is the matter, and of course it is so with
yours. They give him a little drop of gin,
and let me see, how old 13 your baby yes,
fifteen months. Well, fifteen drops of par
egoric, that is it."
"You are sure, Tom, that it will not hurt
him ?" asked the anxious young father.
"I know it will not."
So it was duly administered, and it soon
proved a happy idea, for Frankies little
eyelids' grew heavy, and before many min
utes passed he was sound asleep.
"Tom.you are the smartest fellow I know!
Come, now let us go down and get some
thing to eat. I am almost famished. Luck
ily, Fannie fixed everything for lunch, ex
cept co Gee, and l can make that. I under
stand it much better than tending babies."
"Halloo! What the thunder is this
Look, Tom !"
Tom went to inspect.
"It looks like butter, or dongh, making
an exit from the pan "
Ned's face wore a most comical express
ion as he answered ;
"You have hit it, Tom, sure! It's all
dough now ! Fannie left that loaf for me to
bake. What can I do with it ? Whew !
How sour it smells. Can you help me out
here, Tom ?"
"Yes I guess so. Help you upwith it
from the floor and out with it, to the slop
pail. That is the way our cook does when
she burns the bread up, and I should think
that might answer fc r this."
At the concluding part of this speech
Ned sprang to the stove, pulled open the
oven door, pulled out the pan of rolls, now
burned to coals.
"I forgot all about them, I had so much
to do. A fellow cannot remember every
thing. I wish that scamp Dick had forgot
then to fill up this stove with coal ; then
they wouldn't be quite &o black. Any idea
what to do here, Tom ?"
"Oh, certainly, let them keep company
with the loaf.', '
"All right, I'll make the coffee now, and
then we'll be ready for our lunch. There's a
few rolls left from breakfast"
Tom carried out his plan relative to the
lost bread, and the coffee being ready, they
proceeded to the dining room, where Ned
put out the various good things.
"I say, Tom, what shall we say become
of the bread?"
"Never mind, old fellow ; I'll stay and
help you out."
"Tom you are the only comfort I've had
this day. What is the matter now? What
are you making a face at?"
"Do you call this coffee ?"
Ned tasted.
"Something is wrong here,certainly. Well
never mind, we will drink milk. I say, Tom,
do you know what I think?"
"I can guess namely, housekeeping is
not yourvocation."
"'Veil, yes but more than that"
"That women are an institution?" -
"Yes, that is it. A divine institution. I
never knew it before. This day's experi
ence has forced the knowledge upon me. I
appreciate the whole sex my wife in par
ticular. If to day, when almost everything
was done for me, I could not remember.and
get along, how must it have been yesterday
with her3 Sweeping, dusting, brewing, bak
ing, mending, making, and more than any,
and most of all, tending baby at the begin
ning, ending, and between every other duty.
Why man! we should go mad with so much
care. O woman ! fiom this hour I am thy
devoted admirer."
"You are right, Ned. I appreciate them
too particularly after eating such cake and
pie as this. I'll fcive up the idea of being a
bachelor."
"Bless me 1" It's half-past six o'clock.
Fannie will be here very soon. I wish those
dishes had-been washed up; then every
thing would have seemed right anyhow,"
"We can have them done in no time,'"
faid Tom.
"Too late here she is," answered Ned.
And Fannie came in; looking as bright and
happy as passible.
"Why how well you look ! I was fearful
you would be tired, Fannie. Sit down and
let me remove your wrappings."
"Oh 1 no not a bit tired. I am glad to
see you, .Mr. Merryman. You have kept
Ned from being lonesome, I know. I have
had such a pleasant day. How is Frankie ?"
she continued.
"I wish I had," thought Ned but ans
wered "I am very glad to hear it. Frankie
is sleeping nicely."
"Give me a cup of tea, if you please, nnd
a roll. The long ride has giveu me an ap
petite."
A look of consternation mingled with an
appealing one, was cast toward Tom by the
anxious husband, lie poured out a cup
still quite hot, and passed it over.
Fannie sweetened and tasted. Puckered
up her mouth, tasted again. Ner eyes were
dancing, her mouth drawn down, every fea
ture expressed suppressed mirth.
"Tea or coffee, did you say, Ned?" she
quietly asked.
"I am really sorry. Fannie. But I must
have put both in, I guess. I was very much
worried about that time."
"Never mind, I'll make a cup in a few
minutes," answered bis wife. And off she
flew into tle kitchen to meet the breakfast
things, just as she had left them. She soon
returned with her tea: and sat down and
asked :
"Where are the fresh rolls, Ned ? I'd like
one of your baking."
"Now, Mrs. Barton, I am very mucl
afraid you will think we are gormandizers,
but these rolls were so very brown and in
viting,that we made away with all of them
said the ever ready Tom.
"Oh! I am so very glad you liked them
1 would just as soon have the loat a piece,
if you please, Ned.."
Another appealing glance toward his
friend Tom.
"Really I don't know what you will think
but my dear madam, we were both of us
very nearly famished, and the loaf, which
was so very light and tempting, why we
paid our respects to that first." said Tom,
very gravely.
"Indeed. I am delighted yon enjoyed
both," said Fannie but at the same time
thinking there was some mystery concern
ing it
"I will go up and see Frankie, relieve
Dick, and then come down and tell you all
about my visit."
She was gone about half an hour, during
which time the two friends were congratula
ting themselves on their happy exit from
their embarrassing situation.
Fannie returned, looking merrier than ev
er, and said :
"Ned, you have had a very trying day
with the baby but poor little dear, no won
der he fretted. Dick has told me all about
it. Your prescription did very well to soothe
him to sleep, Mr. Merryman, but you didn't
get at the right cause of the trouble. Al
though I've no doubt be proved to you there
was wind enough but in his lungs only.
Just think, I found the bosom of his dress
quite full of stiff paper which had irritated
bis skin considerably. That was the reason
he cried so, when you pressed him to you.
The sharp edges of the paper hurt him, but
it's nothing serious."
"It was that little scamp, Harry Blame.
Of course I couldn't have my eyes on him
and my work too," said Ned. in an apolo
getic manner. -
"I know it, dear. Now I will tell you
about my trip. Aunty way very much dis
appointed at not seeing you"
I hope you made it all right, ran, what
did you tell her?"
"I did but I told her the truth," said ;
his wife.
"No you did not dare to I Told her I j
was home?"
"Yes. Now listen.my husband.and please
not to say a word until I get through. I
knew aunt better than you. I was straight-1
forward with her. I began by telling her
you sent me, because you did not wish to
hurt her in any way. I told her of the hard
trial this winter had been for the poor that
every one felt it then of the trouble in Tom
Dodsos family how much sickness, ind
so on ; and then I told her you had never
sent those letters to him. Iu short, I fixed
everything all right wrote her letters, fix
ed up her affairs generally, and most of all,
found the key to her heart And only think,
went over with her to see Tom, and she was
as kind as could be 1 She told him to take
his own time to pay her, and stay as long as
he wished. And now, to finish up, I told
her what you had promised me if I did all
right"
"Why, Fannie, I"
.Not a word yet aeeherel tone gave
me this one hundred dollars to buy the
machine, saying she would have that pleas
ure herself, she was so thankful I had help
ed her to find her better feelings, which she
had hid away so long."
"Fannie, you are the dearest, wisest, best
wife in the world ! How did you manage the
old lady?"
"Ned, dear, as every true lady likes to be
managed, by her friends, relatives, more
than all her husband. Deal with us gently,
patiently, lovingly, candidly, and truthfully,
without reserve or concealment, and you
have found the key to unlock our hearts ;
secure and keep the real treasure within."
"Fannie, I believe 'hat is the right policy
for us truly ; and I have come to the con
clusion that a woman has the right, and is
worthy, to fill the highest positions," said
Ned warmly.
"Well, dear, I am very glad jou think so,
and I think my sisterhood generally would
like very much the privilege of trying the
experiment ; and at no very distant time, I
think it will be granted us. From our hus
bands, however, now we wish and claim to
ba loved, respected, and appreciated."
The inauspicious day euded so happily to
the delighted man, that he uproarously told
the story of the rolls and loaf that evening
to his wife, and to his friends many au eve
ning after.
3Iatiu.voxial. Young men in Boston
have given up matrimony so entirely that the
young women are at their wits ends, and
stop at nothing to secure an offer. Thus on
catuiaay last a young Jew xorfcer saw
walking up State street an old woman and a
young girl. The girl dropped her giove.
With the native gallautry of a New Yorker
our friend stepped forward and picked up
the glove. "Thank you, sir," said the
mother, "an! if your intentions are honora
ble you can speak to her at once." The
young man left Boston by the next train.
Two editors in Chicago undertook to pro
duce a velocipede on a new and improved
pattern. One was to furnish the money,
and the other the inventive skill. A large
three wheeled affair was secretly constructed
in a basement, and when finished it was
found to be several inches wider than the
doorway. The two editors are consulting
whether to tear down the house or pull the
velocipede to pieces.
A girl was forced into a disagreeable
match with an old man whom she detested.
When the clergyman came to that part of
the service where the bride is asked if she
consents to take the bridegroom for her hus
band, she said with great simplicity, "Oh
dear, no, sir ! but you are the first person
who has asked my opinion about matter."

Spirit Photography.
"Corry O'Lanus," the humorist of the
Brooklyn Eagle, thus discusses this last
sensation :
I went the other day to the Photographer.
I would give you his name and address, only
I am afraid he would not like it as he is a
very high artist keeps at the top of the
building.
A young lady presided over a show case in
the reception room ; she smiled on me sweet
ly, and asked me what I wished.
I couldn't tell her all I wished t that mo
ment, but mentioned that l wanted to have
lineaments transferred to paper by the sub
tle and ingenious process of photography.
Whereupon she told me to walk upstairs,
which I did.
I was received by the artist, who smelt
like a drugstore.
Told him I wanted a picture.
Says he, "Will you have it 'with or 'with
out?' "
"Couldn't you take it 'within, " says I.
"Excuse me," said he. "I mean with or
without 'spirits?' "
"I don't mind a little spirits,' said I,
wishing to be sociable.
"What spirit would you like?" says he.
"Well, I generally like Bourbon, but am
not particular."
"Pardon me, you misapprehend. I mean
disembodied spirits; the shade of a depar
ted relative cast upon the pictures in a be
nign attitude."
"Oh, I see now," said I. "You are a
spirit photographist"
''Well, you see' the thing become the rage,
and we had to do it as well as other estab
lishments. All in the spirit line now. But
since we have gone into it we have developed
the art very much and produce'spirits of a
superior tone and finish, unequaled by any
other establishment"
"What kind of spirits do you keep?"
said I.
"All kinds," said he; "anything from a
grandmother to an infant, cousins, aunts,
distant friends, in any style. Our grand
mothers give the utmost satisfaction, while
our babes done in the most cherubic pattern,
excite universal admiration."
"What kind of spirits are most in de
mand ?" said I, feeling interested.
"Maternal relatives are most in requisi
tion, then children. Aunts are sometimes
called for, and we do a few cousins. Male
spirits are not much in demand. Sometimes
a father is wanted, and we have had widows
who desired the shade of a departed hus
band, and we once did a brother."
"Are not tho spirits of departed wives in
voked by disconsolate widowers ?"
"We have never had a customer of the
kind yet."
"What kindo an attendant spirit do you
think would become me in a photograph?"
"Something light and cheerful I should
recommend. How would you like a beauti
ful young lady in white-a youthful idol a
remembrance of days gone by quite a poet
ical conception angelic spirit watching
fondly over you, &c ?"
"That would he nice, but lam afraid Mrs.
O'Lanus might make a row about it, and
Sedilla Ann, if she got the picture, might
set me down as a gay deceiver, and the old
folks think I wasn't a safe person to have
around. I'd rather have, that spirit in a
separate picture.'
"Well, then, try something venerable, a
grandmother. Had a grandmother, I pre
presume?"
"I havs heard 80."
"You don't recollect the old lady; well,
all the better, the likeness will give the bet
ter satisfaction. People who have too dis
tinct a recollection of the departed are some
times hard to please. Had a gentleman
here yesterday who wanted to "be taken with
his wife's aunt. He tried our whole assort
ment of spirits without suiting him. Asked
what peculiarity in his wife's aunt he missed.
He said she always wore spectaeles,and none
of our spirits were so attired. Assured him
that spirits in the other sphere didn't need
spectacles and never wore them. But he
insisted that his wife's aunt did, and that she
could not see a haystack at three paces with
out them."
"Does it cost ant more," said I, "to be
taken with a spirit?"
"Yes," said he, "spirits are hard to take ;
have to use expensive preparations on the
plate, and pay an artist to touch them up.
Have to charge twice as much as plain pho
tographs."
I concluded to be taken without
A Happy Rebuke. Watty Morrison was
a Scotch Clergyman, a man of wit and hu
mor. On one occasion he entreated the of
ficer at Fort George to pardon a poor fellow
that was sent to the halberts. The officer
offered to do so, if he would grant him the
favor he would ask. Mr. Morrison agreed
to this, and the officer immediately demand
ed that the ceremony of baptism should be
performed on a puppy. Tho clergyman
agreed to it, and a party of gentlemen as
semblcd to witness the novel baptism. Mr.
Slorrison desired the officer to hold up the
dog as was necessary in their baptism of, a
child and said :
"As I am a minister of the Church of
Scotland, I must proceed according to the
ceremonies of the Church."
"Certainly," said the major, "I expect all
the ceremony.
"Well, then, major, I begin by the nsnal
question : Do you acknowledge yourself the
lather of this puppy?
