Tiie doors of art are open wide
The realm of thought is free ;
Of all earth's- places you are right
To choose tin? best you can.
Provided that you do not try
To crowd noine other man.

Your jviles of golden ore,
While he can barn'y strive to keep
Gaunt faniice from his door.

Alone shall man be proud ;

Pon't crowd, jrnud Miss, your dainty silk
Wi'l jrli-teti none the less,
Uecause it eo:res in contact with

A fi'-ver has the riftht to tread
The pathway to a throne.

But give to every virtue room
The host that may be had ;

That you umy well be proud ;

And never try to crowd.

' Oh, I dare say," said Miss Alton loftily ;

arid a 6Wiinj glimp; of her rosy c!i;:ks
and glossy curls, ki she hurried up the stair
way, while Mi.;s Alton lingered a moment to
give a parting admonition to her brother.
''I hardly cir.scted you home for six
Eiuuths," she said, "and being lonely I pro
rurcl a companion ; but mind. Will, that I
dun t catch you m .kiiig love to the girl, be
ci'ie if I do I shall discharge her immedi
ately." "X.'nme, sis," sail Will. good natured
ly; and ths lady hurried to her room to lay
a;Je her wrappings.
"M:nJ, Claribel, that you don't encour
age any attentions from my Irother," she
l to her corr.pariiou in the seclusion of
her chamber. ''He might be attracted by
your pretty face, but of course ha'd never
-to o; to marry beneath him ; so don't en
courajre him, child, for I won't have him
entangled. I'm amious to sec him settled
in life, ai he might have been a year ago,
1 ut far an unlucky disappointment. "
"Cro'ed in love?" queried the conipan
ion, sympathetically.
"No. notexa:t!y; but you see, Claribel,
wl.cn I was a girl I had a friend who married
wealthy young man, and in course of time
r l ad a lovely little girl. My brother Will
a 1 the little Edith were playmates togeth
t, aud two more affectionate children you
nv.-tr w, until my friend moved away to a
di'taM city. We corresponded regularly,
s i 1 alter a while the two children were be
trutlied and were to be married when my
bruther was twenty-one. But in the mean
t'iii? Edith's parent's died, and she was sent
n uncle and educated at a fashionable
L arding school. She wrote to Will very
f-t-'tlarly until last year, within a few months
cf the tims set for the wedding, she wrote
'tat ill had never been tolsee her, and of j
Mir-p did not love her, and the vowed she j
womJa't marry a man who only wanted her I
r:-.n-y. The pert little minx. ! And so, tho'
" ill never answered the letter, I think it
!'tf-t Lim considerably, though the little flirt
w' not worth regret, seeing how ugly she
Mured."
Then of cou-se, since Mr. Alton is in
'"T with this beauty and heiress, you can
"Jt a; pr-hend any danger from a country
l'rH girl like me," replied Claribel inno
cently. "Of course not," answered Miss Alton,
"eretly pleased at her companion's meek
Titw cf the i!itter, "and that's why I wish
J'.u o avoid him. as he might wound your
b-e!i:igj by being amused at your country
a?, or he might take it into his head to
fi'ft with you, and break your heart. You
js, iny dear, I am thoroughly acquainted
with man's deceitful heart, and that's why
I never married. So you had better take
my advice, and turn a cold shoulder to Will,
for I intend he shall marry some great heir
ess just to spite that purse-proud Edith
Howe."
"Certainly, ma'am, I shall follow your
directions." answered the companion, drop
ping the conversation and biting her coral
lips to keep back an irrepressible smile.
She kept her promise. She avoided Will
Alton, If he sauntered in at one door, she
flitted out at another; if he met her glance
she dropped her rouguish black eyes in sol
emn demure propriety. She secluded her
self in Miss Alton's room all day.and when
she fancied Will was out for his evening
walk she slipped in the quiet drawing room
to the grand piano, and sung her sweetest
songs for his sister, though now and then
there was an emphasis on some tender word.
a plaintive ballad, or exquisite love song
that wt will not say was not intended for
the brother who placidly smoked his cigar
beneath ths window, and thought of Clari
bet's bright eyes and mentally anathemati
zed ''some other fellow for whom she might
intend that song."
The truth is, Will was getting des perate.
Miss Howe was quite forgotten. The bright
young beauty of Claribel had won his heart,
and his passion was only increased by her
pretty shyness and studied coquettish avoid
anc of his presence. Things were getting
unbearable, and sauntering into his sister's
room one day lie horrified the good soul by
a cool announcement.
"You needn't say a word, sis; I'm des
perately in love with your companion, and I
mean to propose to her the first opportunity
I have."
"What! what!" shrieked Miss Alton in
diimay, "what do you mean?"
"I mean to marry Miss Overturn if she
will accept me."
"Will, you're an ungrateful, deluded
brother, and Miss Overturn is a designing
girl-"
The door swung open suddenly, and Clar
ibel stood on the thresholl, her checks
crimson, and her eyes flashing with indig
nant, astonhhment. "Will Miss Alton be
good enough to explain the words she used
in reference to me?" ph asked proudly.
"You you've disregarded my wishes and
entrapped my brother think ing to marry him,
but you are mistaken, and you'r e iost a good
situation, too."
"And found another one," interposed
Will. "Miss Overturn I love you dearly,
and if you will give yourself to me I promise
to make life's pathway as bright and happy
as love can make it for iny little compan
ion." Claribel turred to him blushing and smi
ling. "You don't know what you are ask
ing." she said, "you don't indeed, sir, my
station in life is fur inferior to yours, and
besides I have been a second rate actrsss,
and I'm a couctiy girl, and "
Miss Alton lifted her eyes in expressive
horror, but Will stopped Claribel's words
with a kiss "Don't say anything else but
that you love me, Claribel," he pleaded. "I
know tlr-U you are everything that is good
and pure and true."
"Oh, my prospects 1" groaned Miss Al
ton. "Will, I'll disinherit you, that I will
if you persist is this folly. Give up the
girl and I'll settle my whole fortune on you
now. I hate to see you throw yourself away
on a designing girl."
"Hush sister!" said Will, sternly, "Clar
bel is innocent of the, charge you bring
agaiust her. Have you no womanly feelings
yourself? Have you never loved, sister?"
Miss Alton turned suddenly away. As a
pebble thrown into a stream ruffled the pla
cid waters, so the simple words of Will had
stirred the depths of her heart's sealed foun
tain. She, perhaps, had loved "too well,"
but who shall say "not wisely," since even
the memory of a love she had long since put
away from h'T life had power to change her
ambitious schemes in pity for this young,
loving, helpless girl. With a quick revul
sion of feeling she bent and kissed the young
girl's innocent brow, "Forgiva me, Clari
bel," she murmured, "I was harsh perhaps,
but you are very dear to me, little one, and
I hope you may be happy ;" then turning
to Will she added, "I forgot to tell you,
Will, that I received a letter from Edith
Howe to-day and she is coming to visit ns,
and she even hinted that the broken off
wedding might take place after all."
"No it won't" said Will decisively. "I
shall marry my little Claribel. She is dear
er to me than Edith with all br wealth and
accomplishments."
"And Edith will get paid off in her own
coin, too," said Miss Alton, her spirits ri
sing at the thought of revenge upon Edith
Ilowe. ''On the whole, Will, I'm glad you
are to marry my little companion, for she
will make you a charming wife, and that
conceited Edith will be cleverly sold."
She turned towards Will, but he did not
seem to hear her words. lie was looking at
Claribel, with a gaze half vexed and stern,
Claribel had dropped her handkerchief and
Will had picked it up to kiss the name em
broidered in the corner. He held it out
asking gravely. "What does this mean,
Claribel?" Miss Alton bent forward and
read the name in full. It was "Edith Clar
bel Howe," but before she could speak
Claribel was explaining with alternate smile3
and tears. "I didn't mean you should
know it yet," she said," but I've deceived
you, Will, and I'm sure you will never for
give nie. Didu't I say I was a second rate
actress? I loved you too well to marry you
until I knew that you loved nit for myself
alone, so I took this method of finding out.
You bad fotgotten that my middle name
was Claribel, and I borrowed the name of
Overturu from a distant relative, so now
that I have proved your love, sir, whatever
you may think I do not regret the decep
tion." "And so you are Edith Howe, after all,"
cried M Lss Alton, a little mortified at the
"good advice" she had given the "awk
ward country girl." "To be sure you are
like your mother, child, and I wonder that
I didn't see the resemblance before. But
what a good joke you played ou us. YTell,
I never 1"
The brother and sister were too happy to
be angry, and Will has married her long
ago, so ofcour.se he has forgiven her, but
though Claribel is very dear to .Miss Alton,
and has named her first daughter after
"Will's darling sister," yet that good lady
still persists that she has never quite for
given Clai ibel for her provoking masquer
ade. Tn Secret of it. An old farmer being
asked why his boys stayed at home when
others did not, replied that it was owing to
the fact that he always tried to make home
pleasant for them. He furnished them with
useful and attractive reading ; and when
Bight comes, and the day's labor is ended,
instead of running with other boys to the
railway station and adjoining towns, they
gather around the great lamp, and become
absorbed in their books and papers. His boys
were still at home when the eldest was twenty-one,
while those who weie furnished with
no reading at hemic sought city life and city
dissipation as soon as they were seventeen
or eighteen. All will do well to heed this
testimony of a farmer who has known how
hard the struggle far a footing on a free soil
without a capital is, and how valuable and
comparatively' cheap are the aids which
good reading brings to him. In this age of
general intelligence, the mind must be ca
tered to and books and papers furnished;
and not only this, but, in this a.j;e of cheap
and artistic chromos, pictures can also be
broucht to use in making home attractive.
The farmer's life is the most independent of
any and there is no reason why it day not
be as attractively surrounded.
A rather bashful young man, after a long
and arduous courtship found himself one
bright evening the betrothed of apretty girl,
the very pink of modesty. He was about
to take his departure, aud uftcr lingering
about the door for soma time he declared
and protested to Miss Sallic that he couldn't
and wouldn't leave until she had kissed him.
Of course Miss Sallie blushed beautifully
red, and vowed in return that she could not
and would not do that she never had done
such a tiling, and never would until she was
married. The altercation became exciting,
unt.l the gentleman got huffed and declared
if she couldn't kiss him he wouldn't have
her, aud was marching off. She watched
him to the door, and seeing he was iu ear
nest, and that she would lose him unless
something was done, she said coaxingly,
"Come back, then ; I'll split the difference
with you. You may squeeze my hand!"
"If everlain married, "said Ike, looking
up from the book be was reading, and kick
ing the stove door to. "It ever I'm married"
"Don't speak of inarriaao Isaac," said Mrs.
Partington, "till you are old enough to
understand the bond that binds congealiing
souls. People inusn't think of marriage
with impunity. It' the first thing children
think of now a days, and young boys with
their piano fortes, and young girls wi'h
their heads fricaseed into spittoon cur's,
and talking of marriage before they get out
of their canteens. Think of such ones get
ting married I"
A Wonderful Plant. A specimen of
the wonderful plant, "The Flower of the
IIolv 0 host," has been successfully raised
in Norwich, Conn. The flower is a creamy
white cup, nearly as large as half an egg,
and extremely beautiful, and its wonder as
a natural floral growth is the fact that in
this flower is a little pure white dove, with
pink bill and eyes, and its head turned as if
looking over its back. Its wings, feet, bill,
etc., are absolutely perfect as those of the
living dove.whose counterpart the wonderful
flower dove is.
A Strange Sight. Peter Cartwright,
the noted Methodist preacher, spoke at Du
buque, Iowa, a few weeks ago, and a paper
of that city remarks: "It was a strange
sight, and one we nay never expect to see
againo behold a man in the pulpit before
us who was 80 years old, had been eighty
years a citizen of the West, aud who, sixty
years ago, crossed the Mississippi where is
now St. Louis. He preached in the State
of Illinois when Chicago was unknown and
he spent sixty years in saddle riding through
the great West.
In Boston, early on the morning of Inde
pendence Day, the neighbors heard a pro
digious rumpus in a house occupied by a
childless old couple, and on going to see,
found the old man thrashing his wife ter
rifically. He explained as follows: "Look
a here ; I've been livin with this tormentin
old woman on to forty years, and she has
been henpeckin of me all the time, and now,
this bein the Fourth of July, by the Lord
I've declared my independence."

What is VLj Own.
I cannot for the life of me feel as if I had
the first right to what I possess. A man
comes to my house and says he wants to be
married. I marry him in four cr five min
utes, and he gives me ten dollars. A few
years ago I would work a week for ten dollars,
and think I had done very we'd. Or a ly
ceuni wants a lecture. I slip down in the
afternoon and come back next day with a
hundred dollars. One month, I remember
when I worked at the anvil, 1 iid every
ounce of work that was in nie, and my wages
came to $73. Now, four times a year I go
to our church treasury and draw as much a"
I could earn in three years at 'my old work
and then plume myself in my secret heart
on my handsome moderation in not deman
ding more salary. Now, what religion is
there in my saying that this is intrinsically
mine to spend as I will, when Bill and John
ny are hammering away on the old spot, at
lower prices, if anything? Somebody says
my talent makes this difference. Well, my
talent, my great Teachet says.helougs to God.
It is a trust to use wisely and well, and not
to keep to myself. I look through my
church and city, and I say to a hundred men:
"Why are you not living on twenty acres of
hard scrabble ? Why are you not sailing
before the mast? Why are you not running
round as a country doctor, the most hope
less slave in your section except your horse?
Why are you not a school teacher boarding
around? Why are you not a catch-penny-lawyer,
where a lawyer is a nuisance ?" I
say this, to mysolfofcour.se, as I see great
merchants and men, with splendid faculties
of all kinds, making their mark and their
money, and I say : "Your money and your
faculty are committed to you for the holiest
uses. God gives you five talents that he
may get ten back again." A rich banker
in heaven has given me a great trust, and
he has sent with it a fair white angel, called
Conscience, to watch and guide, and keep
me right. If I drive that angel back to
heaven, by perpetual insult and injury, its
place will be taken by the fiend liemorse.
Now, I want to keep on good terms with he
angel. Everything beside is dust and ashes
if that leaves me ; and I can only be true to
it as I am true to my trust. To be sure that
the gift in me, out of which grows my for
tune, is God's gift is a vast inspiration to a
just generosity, and turns the steel chain
around my purse to a bilken string. Rev.
Robert CoJIyrr.
Sunset on the Adirondacks.
"The hours rolled on, and a Sabbath, such
as we never before had passed, drew to its
close. The sun stooped toward its setting,
and standing on the highest pinnacle we
watched to see tho dy decline. Never be
fore hail our eyes seen, never again, doubt
less, will our eyes behold such a sight. The
old guide, whose ax had first blazed a trail
up its steep sides who thirty years before
had built him a stone lodge upon its crest,
that he might pass his nights upon this
mountain, whose face was as the gray gran
ite on which we stood, said, as he crouched
at our fect, wrapped in his blanket, that he
never but thriee before had seen such a sun
set. The air was cool and crisp, bearing a
gainst us with a steady current from the
west. It did not vary. There was no eddy
in it. It seemed as if the whole atmosphere
was moving bodily eastward. With what
words shaii I be able to make you see that
spectacle ? The air was pure and clear as a
newly-cut diamond; white and colorless as a
pcrfet lens, through which, with unimpeded
eye, we saw the marvellous transformation
from day to night go on. Seven thousand
feet beneath us Lake Placid slept, verifying
its name. To the south a hundred moun
tain peaks were ablaze with light. For a
hundred miles the wilderness stretched
away like a deep green sea across whose sur
face the sun is throwing wide lanes of crim
son. Amid the darker portionseighty patch
es of gold flashed, representing so many
lakes, whose surfaces were changed from
steel blue to orange by the warm rays. East
ward the valley of Chaniplain lay in deep
shadow. To the north, bounding the vision
like a thread of silver, gleamed the St.
Lawrence. In the valley to the south lay
the martyred dust of him who died on a Vir
ginia gallows that manhood in America
might not perish. The closing moment now
had come. Tho heavens in the west were
swarthed in the rich tints of scarlet and or
ange. A thousand colors lay on forest and
lake. The mountain summits flamed. The
sun, like a globe of liquid fire, stood as if
balanced on the western pines. Down into
them it burnt its way. Pausing for a mo
ment, it poured its warm benediction upon
the forest sent a crimson farewell to the
mountains kis3cd the clouds in parting
then disappeared. And there in the crisp
air we stood aud gazed in silence westward
until the shadows deepened along the sky,
the fog filled all the valleys, and the wilder
ness which had been to me and mine a nurse
and home, and which we feared we should
never see or enter again, lay wrapped in
gloom. Rev. II. II. Murray.
An exchange asks : "Why is it that the
census-taker is required to write down the
name of everybody in his district?" We
presume it is done in order to carry out a
determination on the part of the government
to settle definitely the question as to wheth
er or not there is within the United States
a man of the name of John Smith.

An Arkansas Father's Advice to His Son.
Bob, you are about leaving home for
strange parts. You are going to throw me
out of the game and go it alone. The odds
are agin you Bob ; remember that industry
and perseverance are the winning cards, as
they are the "bowers." Book learning.and
all that sort of thing, will do to fill up with,
like small trumps, but you must have the
bowers to back them, or they ain't worth
shucks. If luck is agin you pretty strong,
don't crave and look like a sick chicken on a
rainy day, but hold up your head and make
believe you are flush of trumps ; they don't
play so hard agin you. I've lived and trav
eled around some, Bob, and I've found out
that as soon as folks thought you held a
weak hand, they'd all buck agin you strong.
So when you're sort'r weak,keep a bold look
but play cautious; be satisfied with a point.
Many's the hand I've seen 'em euchre cause
they played for too much. Keep your eyes
well skinned, Bob; don'tlet'em nig you;
recollect the eame lays as much with the
head as with the hands. Be temperate,
never get drunk, for then, no matter how
good your hand, you won't know how to
play it ; both bowers and the ace won't save
you ; for there's sartin to be a "miss deal,"
or something wrong. And another thing,
BoH, (this was spoken in a low tone), don't
go too much on the women ; queens is
kinder poor cards, the more you haveof 'em
the worse for you ; you might have three
and nary a trump. I don't say discard 'em
all ; if you get hold of one that is trump it's
all good, and there's sartin to be one out of
four. And above all. Bob, be honest ; nev
er take a man's trick wot don't belong to
you, nor slip cards or nig. for then you
can't look your man in the face, and when
that's the case there's no fun in the game ;
it's a regular "cut throat." So, now, Bob,
farewell ; remember wot I tell you, and
you'll be sure to win , and if you don't, it
sarvesyou right if you get "skunked."
Music in OCR Public Schools. This
subject is beginning to be more discussed,
aud no doubt music has claims to a larger
place among school studies than it has
hitherto occupied. The able address of
Daniel B. Hagar, delivered before the Mu
sical Convention at the Boston Music Hall,
a few months since, has already excited a
powerful influence in this direction, and in
quiries are being made with regard to the
best method of adopting the reforms which
have beea suggested. Without a doubt
music is the art which is most fostered
among us, and parlors are not considered
fully furnished that lack a piano. We are
not only a musical people, but we are des
tined eventually to become a great musical
nation. It is necessary, therefore, that we
devise some means of educating, to this
end, the rising generation. In Germany,
no one can be a school teacher who has not
a thorough knowledge of music, and the
divine art there is taught, as here, in the
common schools. We hope that it may
soon be more generally taught among us ;
for its influence on physical development
alone is one of the utmost importance by
tending to keep the lungs and vocal organs
in a sound and vigorous condition. It is,
however, in its moral power, that its espec
ial excellence lies, and this is evident to all
who know its mysterious influence on the
mind and heart. There is no better way of
combining moral culture with intellectual
attainment thau by incorporating music as
a branch of common school cducatiou.
A story is told of an ancient Mohawk no
tion that some great misfortune would hap
pen if any one spoke on Saratoga Lake. A
strong minded English woman on one occa
sion, while being ferried over, insisted upon
talking, and as soon as she got over in safety
e.hc rallied her boatman on his superstition.
But he had the best of it after all. for he at
once replied : "The Great Spirit is merciful
and knows that a white woman cannot hold
her tongue."

so on Saturday night, July 30th. She said
she didn't want to marry anybody. That
was sensible, for she was only sixteen years
old. He thereupon left the house, took a

in the forehead. That wasn't sensible.

II. T, I1elmoi.b. Druggist:
Deab Sir : I bar been a sufferer, for apward
of twenty years, with gravel, bladder and kidney
affections, during which time I bar ased rarioas
medicinal preparations, and been aader th treat
ment ef th most eminent Physicians, experien
cing but little relief
Having en year preparation extensively ad
vertised, I consulted with my family physician in,
regard to using yeur Extract Bochu.
I did this because I had used all kinds ef ad
rertised remedies, and bad feu od them worthies,
and ome quit injurious; in fact, I despaired ef
ever getting well, and determined to as a rftaa -eJies
hereafter unless I knew of th Ingredients.
It was this that prompted me to us your remedy.
As yon advertised that it was composed of bach,
cubebs and juniper berries, it occurred to at and
uiy physician as an excellent combination, and,
with his advice, after an examination of th arti
cle, and consulting again with th dragglst, t
concluded to try it. I commenced iu as about
ight months ago, at which time I was eoc fined
to my room From th first bottle I was astonish
ed and gratified at the beneficial effect aad ftr
using it three weeks was able to walk oat. I felt
much like writingyoa a full statement ef my easa
at that time, but thought my improvement might
only be temporary, and therefor one!ndd t
defer and see if it would effect a rfet r,
knowing then it would be of greater valu 4 yoa
and mor satisfactory t m.
I sm now abl to report that a ear is effeoted
aftor using tb remedy for five moaths.
I hav not csed any now for three months, aad
feel as well in all respects as I ever did.
Tour Bucha being devoid ot any cnplasaat
tast and odor, a nice tenia and invigoraforef the
system, I da not mean to be without it wherer
occasion may require it use in each affeetloes. .
