THE FOUS LEAVED CLOVES.
Down in tl;s grass, with the roses drop
I ii; their fragrant leaves around her, and
the i-utiimer wind just stirring the sunny
curis that clustered about her broad, fair
"trow, little Madge Wilder knelt. No one
ever th'ui,lit ot' calling her anything else
tliau "little Madge," though she had passed
lit r twuitiLth birthday, and called herself a
v.-uRian. ;he was not ouly petite in figure,
Lut mj winning in every pose, that the words"
r 'te involuntarily to your lips. She had
been wandering over the lawn this morning,
her dress lifted daintily to avoid the dew
which yet lingered on the grass, plucking
now ai'd then a red roe, or a spray of grat
golden lillies, which still hung idly in her
Land.
Jut nw she had knelt down in eager
Hiet of a four-leaved clover. Near her
Me-jJ two men ; one young, lite herself,
wu!i a countenance radiant with health and
jr ui'l huuiur, laughing eye, and a mouth
entirely hidden by the curling brown mous-t;u-Lo
which had made him the declared ad
miration of all the young ladie gathered at
l aii'awn for the summer; the other, a
1 iaii in the prime of life, his hair just touch
cl with gray, and the high forehead mark
ed with lines of care, or grief, or disappoint
ment. This was Paul Lyon, a man whom
you could not look upon without feeling io
f tinntively that there was much to reverence
Leneath the rjuiet, almost cold exterior; a
whom more than one womn was anx
ious to ph'ase, but "whom thus far in life no
utv-- had been able to win from. his secluded
wny until Madge Wilder crossed his vision,
lie thought her the very daintiest bit of
created womanhood, and sometimes wonder
ed iff he could ever learn to look with afTec
ti.in upon him, worn as he was with the
fcrM i-truggle.
."r'.ie looked up at these two presently,
sramiing there so quietly, watching her
every motion, with an arch glance and mer
ry fuiile. "Come," she said, "you both
kiiuw how much I want my clover leaf, and
y:t you stand there as if you had quite for
retten that you came out here expressly to
kelp rue fiiid it."
In an instant Fred Hastings was beside
Lor, parting the damp grass, peering here
and there, with eager eyes, as if he must be
ruaewful. "What reward will ycu bestow
a the one wh.) makes you happy in posses
ion!.' the coveted treasure, Miss Madge?"
Fred a.Led it with a smile, which brighten
ed Lis face wonderfully.
t'he glanced up hastily, first at him, then
at the fiient tigure kitffig against the ma
pie just beyond, and hesitated a moment,
then she spoke tjuiuly, her eyes veiled by
the long lashes, "whoever finds a four-leaved
clover for me first, shall name his own
reward."
A little thrill of delight shot over Paul
Lyon's face, and he too stooped down to
the Led of fragraut clover. Light woids
anj piraiant iaughter mingled during the
nut half hour, whin, suddenly, Madge
felt a leaf drop on her hand. She looked at
it carefully to see that there was no decep
tion about it, and then a faint blush stole
into her cheek, as she felt rather than saw
wh".e hand had let it fall. She did not
P?ak, but sat thete twirling it carelessly in
her white fingers.
1 Here, Madge! I've found it !" exclaim
ed Fred Hastings, coming round the other
ide of her, "and now for my "
II had become silent in a moment, for
Madge held up her hand, and Le saw the
tiny green leaf resting there, and the sum
mer sunshine falling lovingly down upon it.
"Well, Lyon, so you're ahead of me; but
after all, its only in the matter of a clover,"
and he turned to Madge, who had risen and
f:o id looking back to the house, sayir.g,
' Let me carry those liilies for you, Madge;
I won't lose cue by the way, I assure you."
But she would not surrender them, and
to Le wailed back beside her, looking at
btr down-cast face, as it it had been the ra
rest picture in the world.
Paul Lyon walked on the other side with
a thoughtful look upon his face that was
uual, and a rare smile lighting it up, that
"as quite unusual. He did not look at
Madge, at least so Fred Hastings would
have said, but it is certain that he did not
ni"s one smile or look of the woman who
walked so quietly by his side.
Malge was but a woman, with all the ca
prices of the ser, and for two weeks had
teen puzzled enough at Paul's curious ways
to awaken a strong interest in him, but she
would not acknowledge, even to her own
heart, the fact that ahe cared a good deal
Aether Paul Lyon loved her. Fred did;
of that she felt sure, and I think the idea
had never been an unpleasant one until just
now, when she began to fear he might tell
her of it. As this fear came upon her,- she
turned around with a shy, sweet smile, and
said, laughingly:
"I am going to press my clover-leaf, Mr.
Lyon, and keep it until I am a real old wo
man."
His face lost noDe of its brightness at the
thought of her being a real old woman,
some time in the future, and he smiled as
if he would have made some reply, but just
tten Jrred asked, "What for, Madge?"
"To help me keep in remembrance to-dav.
when it shall have become a 'dead yester
day, yonder. I don't think I could quite
forget, without it, either ; 3till such associa
tions go great way in our memories. Just
the same spell of sunshine and summer can
not always be invoked, but this little leaf
will certainly bring me back some of the
charm of this morning."
Fred stared at her in dumb surprise,
Madge grew more and more a riddle to him
every day ; she had gradually laid aside
some of her little oddities, and showed of-
tener, now, the Ture womanly in her nature,
k red called it "the angel side," and felt
some hesitation as to whether it had been
it's touch that had wrought the change. He
drew in his breath quickly at the doubt, and
resolved to test the thing before night. As
a good many things, however, escape us
that we set our hearts upon, so, after all,
the day went by like any other day, and
Kred was as much in the dark as ever when
he bade Madge merry good-night just out
side the parlor door.
The swift-winged days went by, and the
last day of their stay came in with a blue
sky, balmy air, and a myriad of red-throated
warblers filling the air with joyous melody.
Paul Lyon had met her on the porch the
night before, and asked her to ride this
morning, and came down early to fulfil her
promise. Very beautiful she looked to
Paul's partial eyes, as the glance he be
stowed upon her told her as plainly as words
could have done. The golden glory of her
hair escaped from her cap to fall in half
curls over the little blue velvet jacket, and
just as she lifted her hand to tie it back
with the loosened ribbon, Fred Hastings
came hastily out.
"Off so early, Madge, and alone?"
"Can you not see that I am not alone?"
she said, a little pettishly, for just then the
man's freedom wounded her.
"Oh, Lyon. Well don't stay too long,
we must gather our roses while te dew is
on them," and a whisper, which no one but
Madge heard, finished the sentence, and at
the same time called up a rosy blush to the
dalicate face.
"I do not uuderstand yon," she said at
length, without lifting her eyes.
"It dosen't matter. Ouly don't fail to
understand yourself, Madge." the last words
were raised just a trifle in tone, so that Paul
Lyon heard them distinctly. "Take good
care of Madge, and don't let her ride too
far," he said, carelessly, to Lyon, as if her
welfare did not concern more than one ot
them.
The words, the tone, all taken together,
were, to Paul Lyon, a sign of ownership, it
was true, but so unpleasant to him was the
mere hint, that his face grew white in a mo
ment. Madge rode on a few moaients in silent
thought, while her very heart ached with
thinking of the disguise which had been so
thoughtlessly forced upon her. Perhaps
not altogether thoughtlessly, either, and
she felt at that moment as if she almost ha
ted Fre . Hastings ; a moment later, and her
kind heart relented, and, driving the frown
from her face, she turned to her companion.
"Are you tbinkiug that our pleasant circle
will be quite broken up after to-day, Mr.
Lyon?"
"Yes; we leave here like the birds, at
the first touch of frost," slightly shivering
as he said it. "I wonder if any of us will
ever return as we are to-day ?"
"All of us, I hope ; but who can tell ? A
year brings many changes."
"True. Though of hope we may have
something left, we always have most of fear,
I think. -
"Not you, Mr. Lyon ; I count you a brave
man among my heroes," blushing faintly as
the words left her lips.
You do not know me sufficiently well,
Miss Wilder. In some cases I would, I am
sure, prove the veriest coward."
"I cannot believe it."
"Why not?"
"I suppose because I have not known yoa
so.
"We may be brave in all senses but one,
my friend ; yet cowards, after all .life's dis
cipline, where our dearest hopes are con
cerned." She looked up with a faint smile when he
said this, but of the many emotions written
on her face, the yearning love which shone
forth from her very soul, he read and
translated it pity.
A soft south wind, which bent the blos
soming grass aside, lifted Madge's golden
curls, and, as Paul stooped to look at her
saddle, they were blown directly across bis
face. He gathered it all in his hand and
held it to his face a moment ; then, as he
released it, he turned to her with a remon
strance written on his face. "You are so
like a child to me, yet, Madgie, that I some
times fear for yoa. I find myself wondering
what your lot will be in life, and dreal lest
it should be a clouded one."
"Do you care so much, then ?" she asked,
not venturing to lift her eyes to his own.
' Oh, my darling " Then with a great
sigh, that found its way straight to Madge's
tender heart, "Forgive me if, in the sorrow
of the moment, I have' forgotten what
ought, of all men, to have remembered."
Pride sealed her lips for an instant ; then
she looked up to him with a face in which
was blended the very sweetest humility and
a noble resolution. "What had you for
gotten, Paul?"
He grew paler at the sound of her gentle
question, but turned at once to answer ber.
It is your right to know, little Madge,
though I had thought never to tell you :
know you love him best, dear, child; but
t . 1 - i .
on, let me tmnit one moment what a joy it
would have been could I have stood in his
place 1 Do you know," he said, choking
down a sob, "what a bright picture I had
drawn for myself?"
"No," she said, softly, "tell me."
"It was the day when you promised a t to
ward to the one who should find you a clo
ver leaf. I had nothing to choose but your
love, child, and I had dreamed the day
miffhl cpine when I should dare to ask you
mr 11 , visions 01 a cneenui nome, wnicn
your voice should make as charming as the
birds made the morning which your smile
should brighten like the noonday, were you
mine. Ah, Madge, you must not call me a
brave man any longer 1"
41 ft 1 f , r . .
Ana now, sue laitered, you may
claim the fulfillment of my promise."
"Now, if you will only give me that one
poor little clover leaf, to lake away with me,
I will strive earnestly to be content."
"Leave that to ine," she cried, tears run
ning down her fair cheek and dropping on
his hand ; "it is all I have of yours."
"He looked at her n doubt, then asked,
hastily. "Had I spoken sooner, Madge,
would you have paused to weigh my claim
against his?"
"He has no claim, save in your imagina
tion, PauL"
"No claim. Madge ! Dear little one, do
you mean this?"
"Stop, Paul ! Do not sham me."
"My darling," he added, gathering her
up close against bis throbbing heart, "will
you give yourself to me ? My life has been
a broken and scarred one some time I will
tell you of it ; but if you can give me a word
of hope, there will be light at last."
She looked at the noble, kindly face, with
its lines of grief and care ; at the silver
threads that crept out to sight amid the ra
ven blackness of his hair ; at the dear eyes,
with such unutterable longing iu them, and
then she put ber hands in his, saying, sim
ply, "I do lov e you, PauL Will you leave
me my clover-leaf?' '
"Until the day you give yourself with
it, he said, tenderly. "My wife will let
me share her memories, when she looks at
it, years from now, I know.''
Madge only smiled, but she did not draw
her hauds from his firm clasp.
xhe sunshine had robbed the roses of all
their dew long before Paul Lyon and Madge
Wilder dismounted at the front piazza, and
Fred Hastings was wailing impatiently,
walking up and down as he watched the
road.
It required some self-control to meet his
glance uuflinchiuidy, but Madge did it, aud
with a hasty, gay good-morning, she hast
ened up tha stairs. It was late in the after
noon before Fred found an opportunity of
speaking to her, and then she was standing
alone in the halt twilight when he came into
the room. She dropped iuto a chair by the
window as he drew nearer, and mutely
awaited what he had to say.
He leaned over the back of her chair,
saying only, "Dear Madge, have you no
word for me, after hiding from me all day
long?"
She drew away from him, vexed and
ashamed, hardly knowing how to reply.
But when he would have said more, she
found her voice. "Hush !" she said with
a motion of entreaty, "I must not stay here
now.
"Madge, do you not know how much I
love you?"
"Do not siy it I"
But just then she heard Paul's voice un
der the window, and in a moment more he
came in with his hands full of roses.
"Madge, little one, are you here?"
"yes."
"Well, come here, then. I want to crown
you queen of toy summer. Do you not see
that I am growing young again?" Then
seeing Fred, who stood looking at him in
amazement, and taking in' Madge's look of
entreaty, he said, "Excuse me, Mr. Has
tings, but this little girl has given herself to
me, and I want to mark the day with flow
ers." The roses, balf of them, dropped from
bis hands as Fred left tbe room, crashing
the door together behind him, but as Madge
smiled and bent her head, be took her face
betweeu his hands nnd bent his own to meet
it.
"I think I will gather my roses from a
sweeter garden hereafter, Madge," and he
left a fond kiss on either cheek.
Still she was silent.
"I am sorry for him, dear child, for I can
measure his loss by my gain ; but he should
have been a swifter searcher for the clover
leaf." Madge looked up, blushing very rosily,
as she remembered the kisses, at once so
strange and so sweet, and said, "I am satis
fied, dear PauL"
And Paul thought, as the years went by,
and the sad lines faded out of his face, and
his fair young wife walked beside him, that
God bad been verv rood to him, and he
thanked Him out of a full heart, into which
content, like a beautiful dove, sank to rest.

Oash Value of a Laboring Man.
Under this caption the Portsmouth, New
Hampshire, Chronicle has the following sen
sible article :
"It is often remarked by persons who do
not possess any property, and who depend
upon their daily labor for support of them
selves and families, that they are 'worth
nothing' fiancially speaking. This lan
guage is generally indulged in by men in
the community who style themselves busi
ness men. Let ns examine the question
financially, and see if their assertions are
correct.
"Last year the price of common labor
averaged one dollar and a half per day.
Admitting that the laborer received one dol
lar and a half per day, and it required the
whole of that sum to support his family,
nevertheless we contend that the laborer
was worth in cash to his family the sum of
$7,989.
"The amount he would receive for one
year's labor at one dollar and a half per day
would be $475 60, which amount would be
the interest at six percent, on $7,989,which
latter sum would be the cash value of the
laboring man to his family.
"The cash value of the laboriug man to
the community is much more than the above
named sum, as labor is the only true wealth
to any country. Without labor our forges,
furnaces, woolen mills, and indeed manufac
tories of all kinds, would cease to be. The
music of the loom and shuttle would be si
lenced forever. - Our national aad other
banks would close their doors, and our most
enterprising merchants take in their signs.
Without labor civilization recede, .and the
bat and owl would soon occupy the crimson
chamber of our would-be business men.
"Let the laboring men of the United
States realize their position. Let them re
flect that labor is honorable ; that labor is
wealth. Let them remember that they are
a power in the State ; that to them this great
government is indebted for all it possesses
of liberty, glory and grandeun
"Let them only reflect, that labor is hon
orable ; Lut let those who look down on the
humble laborer and mechanic reflect for one
moment before they speak in terms of dis
paragement of the 'hewers of wood and
drawers of water.' The custom is too pre
valent in the community ot making remarks
in a sneering manner of the great industrial
class of our people, leading youths among
us to think that honest industry is not hon
orable, be it what it may. That time . has
passed.
"Honest, industrious mechanics and la
borers are the wealth of States, and, until
they are encouragod and fostered, our peo
ple cannot be prosperous. It is not the cash
value alone by which he enriches the place
of bis residence, but he adds by his labor to
its material wealth ; no country or nation
that commands the respect of tbe world, but
what that respect was gained through the
skill of her mechanical population. Then
let all classes, more especially the rich, re
spect and inculcate their children with the
true theory of life, and labor is honorable,
and if, in after life, misfortune should over
take them, willing hands will be put forth
to earn their support."
A Funny Incident. George Lascelles,
iu a letter to the New York Clipper, relates
a funny incident which happened at tbe old
Albany Museum, in tbe the good old times
when the drama, wax figures and other cu
riosities were in vogue at that place :
On the Fourth of July, 1852, a patriotic
addition to the show being desired, Charles
Salisbury, a comical genius, notorious for
his practical jokes, was chosen to represent
George Washington, and, of course, was
dressed in the traditional costume. The
doors had just been opened for the evening
performance, and visitors had commenced
thronging the curiosity rooms, when a mis
chievous idea struck Mr. Salisbury, who
opened one of the wax work cases, unobser
ved, took a position among the figures and
tried to look immovable as possible. A
countryman, bis wife and daughter, a young
miss of eighteen, were the first who entered.
As the young lady approached Washington,
he bestowed on her a most unfatherly wink.
"Good gracious, ma," exclaimed she, "that
figure, of Washington winked at me."
"Nonsense, child," exclaimed ma, "you are
so conceited you think everybody is in love
with you." But at this moment she was
almost speechless herself, for the venerable
Washington had applied his fingers to his
nose in a very suggestive manner. un,
William t" she exclaimed, grasping her hus
band's arm, "do look at that." "What is
it," asked William, "why, I believe you
women folks are crazy." At this moment
Gen. Washington struck a belligerent atti
tude and uttered a terrific veil. In an in
stant the whole party tumbled down stairs,
pell mell, and related the wonderful story,
while Washington quietly slipped off to bis
dressing-room, laughing in bis sleeve at the
joke he had practiced.

Printing in the Chinese Language.
One of the editors of the New York Ob
server is making a tour of the world. Here
is a brief sketch from Shang hai, which
shows some of the difficulties of book-making
in China :
One of the first plaees that I visited on
reaching Shang liai, was the Mission Press
of the Presbyterian Church of the United
States a wisely founded institution, which
has been doing a great work. It is the most
extensive printing establishment in China,
and has been sending its light into Japan as
well. The wreat work of Dr. Hepburn, of
Yoko hama his quarto Japanese Dictio
nary was printed at the press ; and during
the last year, the third edition, 2,400 copies,
of another Japanese dictionary, the first two
editions of which was printed at Yeddo,
has been printed. It is a type foundry as
well as a printing house, and with judicious
and libera management, it may be made an
important engine for good in time to come
as it has been in the past. During the year
18G8, 25,000,000 pages were printed at this
press; and in the present year the whole of
the New Testament and of Pilgrim's Prog
ress has been admirably electro typed. I
have before'me a copy of the Pilgrim's Prog
ress in Chinese, illustrated with engravings
drawn and executed here, and also a copy
of the "Peep of day" in Chiuese, from the
same press.
On entering this extensive printing es
tablishment, I was confronted with a series
of amphitheatres, in the interior of each of
which stood a compositor ; and I saw at a
glance the immensity of the work which
every one who learns to read or speak or
print the Chinese language has to encounter.
Each one of these amphitheaters was what
printers call a case, containing, not twenty-
six letters as in iiingland printing offices.
but more than six thousand different chara
cters of types, and, with the combinations
that are made more than thirteen thousand.
I do not much wonder that the Chinese ad
here to their old method of engraving every
thing on wood that they print, for I should
be very loath to attempt to hunt up many
letters or words out of the six thousand
boxes that I saw before me. And yet this
mode of printitig is a great improvement on
the old.
How to Treat Slander. We once
heard a story told of two men who started
together ono morning for a whole day's
journey. . 1 hey soon became separated, the
one reached his destination before the sun
had sunk behind the Western hills, where
be made himself comfortable at the inn,
His only trouble was concern for his laggard
companion, tie tnougnt sure some evu
must have befallen him.
Long after dark, his fellow companion
arrived. When asked the cause of his de
lay, he replied :
"I was obliged to stop at every other
house to whip off the unmannerly dogs
that barked at me. Didn't they bark at
you?"
"Yes," replied the other, "but I did not
stop to whip them. I simply told them
that they were ill-bred curs, and drove on."
We are generally losers in the end, if we
stop to refute all the back bitings and gos
siping we may hear by the way. They are
annoying, it is true, but not dangerous, so
long as we do not stop to expostulate and
scold. Our characters are formed and sus
tained by ourselves, by our actions and pur
pose, and not by others. Always bear this
in mind, that "calumnies may usually be
trusted to time and the slow but steady jus
tice of public opinion."
Know Each Other's Hearts. If we
could only read each other's hearts, we
should be kinder to each other. If we knew
the woes and bitterness and physical annoy
ances of our neighbors, we should make al
lowance for them which we do not now.
We go about masked, uttering sterotyped
sentiments, hiding our heart- pangs and our
headaches as carefully as we can ; and yet
we wonder that others do not discover them
by intuition. We cover our beEt feelings
from the light ; we do not so conceal our re
sentments and our dislikes, of which we are
prone to be proud. Often two people sit
close together, with, "I love you" in either
heart, and neither knows it. Each ;hinks,
"I could be fond ; but what use of wasting
fondness on one who does not care for it?"
and so they part, and go their ways alone.
Life is a masqureade, at which few unmask
even to their very dearest And though
there is need of much masking, would to.
Heaven we dared show plainly our real faces,
from birth to death, for then some few, at
least, would truly love each other.
A couple of the best conundrums we ever
heard were perpetrated the other day in a
social circle of gentlemen, one of whom had
a very bald head : One gentleman asked :
"Why is Mr. 's head like Alaska?"
All gave it up.
"Because it is a great white bear place."
Hardly had the laugh subsided on this,
when another asked,
"Whv is his head like heaven ?"
This was worse to get at than the other,
and the answer came,
''Because there is no dying or parting
there."

Th anterior absorbs. Interior consists' of tiav

H. T, Helmbold, Druggist:
Dear Sib : I hav bean a snflerer, for apwari
of twenty years, with gravel, bladder and kidney
affections, daring which time I hav BSd varioas
medicinal preparations, and been under th treat
ment f th most eminent PbysioiaaJ, xpriea
eing but littl relief.
Having seen your preparations xUnsively ad
vertised, I consulted with tny family physloianin
regard to nsing your Extract Bnchn.
I did this becans 1 bad nsed all kinds af ad
vertised remedies, and had found them worthiest,
and ome quite injurious ; In fact, I despaired af
ever getting wall, and determined to as ne rem
edies hereafter unless I knew of the ingredients.
It was this that prompted me to nie your remedy.
As yoa advertised that it was composed of boohs ,
cabebs and juniper berries, it occurred to ma and
my physician as. an excellent combination, and,
aith his advice, after an examination of tha arti
cle, and consulting again with tha druggist, I
concluded to try it. I commenced Its as about
eight months ago, at which time I was confined
to my room From th frst bottle I was astonish
ed and gratified at the banaficial effect, aad after
using it three weeks was able to walk oat I felt
much like writing yoa a full statement of my cas
at that time, but thought my Improvement might
only b temporary, and therefore concluded to
defer and im if it would effect a perfect ear,
knowing then It would be of greater valae to yoa
and mora satisfactory to ma.
I am now abl to report that a oar is ffctd
after nsing th remedy for fiv months.
I have not nsed any now for three months, aad
feel as wall in all respects at I aver did.
Your Buchn being devoid ot any unpleasant
tasta and odor, a nice tenicand invigoratorof th
system, I do not mean to be without it whenever
occasion may require its us in such affections.
