THE 8T0RM.
Tb tir m chill, the rain falls fast,
Aoi dark and wintry ia the night;
Keen ia the bieak and stormy bloat .
And oot a star afford its light.
How can I unirrataful be,
Mr ho have u hoiue to coyer uie?
How many poor around me roam ;
Not knowing where to lay their head ;
Without airieritl. without homo.
Except it be a mud wall'd shed,
J low can I then ungrateful be.
Who have a hou: to cover me?
Hjw caul then, while thus I lire.
He discontented with uiy lot?
The Lord doth countless mercies give.
Yet who so of tea is forgot ;
Oh may I ever giattfal be
For a!! th Lord has given to me !
OKLY A rAEMEB'3 WIFE.
Two women at together at sunet ia the
porch do3r of a whi-o cottage that stood
uoJer its "ancestral tree," and among the
fields of wheat anl corn, like a poet's vis
inu of a quiet retting place of some weary,
eufferiog soul.
And one of these two women had eyes to
nee, ears to bear, And a heart to feci and
appreciate il all. She was a tail and state
:y lady, apparently aoine thirty years of age
uot exactly handsome but with a grace of
air and uianner peculiarly her own. The
rareful toilet, thu oa-molca air. elegance and
luxury, the city dame. While the weary
glance in her large, dark eyes, which even
the pleasant quiet of that sunset hour could
tut quite drivr away, showed that time had
nut Oa!t gently with her aud her heart's
idoK but had thrown them, shattered aud
ruined, at her feet.
Ht companion wa iomo five year her
Juuior, aud many time pretfier a little
T'j-.'.ud faced, kt ple cheeked woman with
dark blue eyea and daik brown hair, and a
rounded figure was aet off to the best ad
vantage by the afternoon dresa of the tinted
inunlio that ahe wor.
At present the pretty face was almost
i)oi!edby a querulous discontented expres
sion. She was contrasting her own hand,
plump aoi.Hiotll, but certainly rather brown
with the aleuder white fingers of her city
Irieiid, all glittering with rings. "Just
hok at the two?" she exc'aiiued. "That
come of making batter and cheese, and
weeptoir and dusting, and washin dishes.
nd tnakiug bda all the time. That man
told the truth that said woman's work is
never don. I know mtne never is. Oh.
dear, dear t to think that you, .Margaret,
should have married a city merchant, and
be ai rich a prinot-M in a fairy tale ; aud
here I am planted forljte, plain Mrs. Hiram
l'arke. and tiothine in the world to compare
with you. I am sick of being only a tar
luer'a wife."
Margaret Van lliwth looked d wn at her
grumbling little friend with a sad smile.
"Jenny, it seems to me aa we sit here in
this quiet place and look out over all these
pleasant field that are your own it seems
to ine that you are almost wicked to talk like
that."
"I dare fay." replied Mrs. Jenny, "but
yon would not like it, Margaret. Voti would
never wi-h :o chanje places with iuc." .
" i'eihapg uou Wuuld you iilto to change
w;:h mt?''
".An l he Mrs. Vac Ilowth. instead of
Mr.. Hiram Parke?-'
Jenny hesitated. She dearly loved her
ran-iiomts husband.
"Well, I don't mean to give up nirani,"
the naid at last. "I only maa that I wish
he w city aierchaut. iaitcad of a farmer,
J a rich as your husband is; t hi', is all. "
"And that ii a gte.it deal,".' aid Mrs.
a;i Howth coldly. "Jenny, if your wish .
i be granted, d yon ku ow what vour
lifswjuli be?" . ., i
"What yours i, I auppope. What any
iVs is ; your pj.-ition."
ilsictly. But what is that life? Do
ra kaew?' ,.
"How should I?'
"It is a weary one, Jenny, with more
f.iin; harl work in it than all yjur mak
butter and cbscse can brin."
"Oh. Margaret!"
'And oh, Jenny ! Believe me, my dear,
ttirrc are no people on earth who work har-i
ler than the fashionable who on'y have
Liri)W!; amusement to provide for. A
ung life of mere amusement is a dog's life,
J-i-y at the best."
"1 should like to be convinced of it by
a-tn! exrerieov-e," said Jenny, doubtingly.
'"" I &aid aud thought once. I liava
rouvinced. And it is all vanity and
vexation of spirit, my dear."
"But how?" persisted Jenny.
"Howl In fn thousand ways. If you
"e in the fashionable world, you must do
f 'he fashionable world does. You must
rise and drew and shop and lunch, and
are.s again and drive, and dress again and
Plar at, cerlatu balls, parties, concerts,
ejLa;i'j a your friends do, or be voted bi
AttttE, and out of the world altogether,
iou. ciy poor Jenny, who are by no means
fond of dress, what would rou do at a fash
ionable watftriug place in the hottest days of
A'Jfc'-iHt, with fire changes of toilet from
morning t3 night, and a French lady's maid
fc tjranize over you all the time into the
bargain?"
''H arrow!" ejaculated Jenny.
Balls that you must go to in spite 'of fa

f, he, calls that you must make on people
Horn you detest ! Oh, Jenny, I should
r ra-hfr be at homa with the butter and
t:--vs i; J ww vou."
Jenny was silent. Here was the dark
side of the bright picture which she had
never seen or dresmed of before.
"You love your husband, Jenny 7" said
her friend, after a time. - - r
Jenny opened her eyes widely.
"Love him I Why, ian't he my hnsband."
was hecnaive.reply.
' Mrs. Van Ilowth laughed.
"Some women 'in Bociety' might tbmk
that a reason w hy you .should not love him,"
she said drily. "And he loves you, also?"
"I should die to morrow if I thought he
did not!" ,.v
"Tut, child ! People leave thi-j world
when God wills it, not before. I dare say
you would survive his infidelity. t Many
women before you have lived through such
things.".
"Don't fa'k of it, Jlargaretl I could not
bear it ! Why, his love is all the world to
me ! now could I bear to lose it J"
"Then don't wish him to be a city mer

who love their wives ; but on the other hand
there are so many temptations, especially
in society, that I sometimes wonder not that
so many go estray but that so many remain
true to themselves and their duty."
She spoke absently, and her eyes had a
far-away glanco, as if they dwelt on other
things.
Jenny ven'ured a question.
"Margaret, is yours a happy marriage?
Do you love your husband ? And does he
love you ?"
Mrs. Van Ilowth impulsively started.and
turned crimson.
"Jenny, I would have loved him I
would have been a good wife to him ; but
he never loved me. He brought to place
me at the head of his house, because he
thought mo la ly like and interesting ; that
was all. Ho told me so mice, though not
qii;e so plainly as this. And since then
we have each taken our own way, indepen
dent of each other.' I seldom see him at
our house in town. I have my carriage, my
diamonds, my opera box. Jn the season, I
go to Saratoga, or Newport, while he favors
Long Branch with his presence. We are
perfectly polite to each other; wo never
uariel; and suppose were I to die to
morrow, he'd be the most inconsolable of
widowers for a week ! Jenny you will not
wish to change places with in J again. Your
husbaud might chauge as mine has done,
exposed to the same temptations. Thank
Heaven that you have hi in as he is, a good
true man who loves you ; anj never mind
the butier and cheese, Jenny, so long as
your own happiuesa aud hia U made up with
ihem."
She arose from her scat as sho spoke, and
strolled tiowu the garden path alone.
Jenny did not follow her. She saton the
step, lost in though.. The riddle of her
friend's life was at lift made clear to her.
She had often wondered why .Margaret in
the midotof her wealth and luxury, should
seem so sad and iil at eaj-e. She wondered
jjo longer now. To be the wife of a uian
who has no love tor you I What "lower
deep" can there be for a proud and sensitive
woman than this?
Jenny 'urned with tears in her eyes to
meet her handsome stalwart husband, as he
come from the field.
"Well, little Woman," and then 6he got
the rough embrace and the hearty kiss for
which she was looking.
Yes, Margaret was right. The butter
aud cheese were of very little consequer.ee,
while love like this made her tasks easy to
endure. And the rosy cheeked little wo
man bent fondly down over her "Hiram."
as he flung himself on the porch scat, and
fannel him. talked to him. brought him
cot l lemonade, nu I iimJj him thoroughly
happy, while be enjoyed his rest. Poor
Margaret! Happy Jenny! Never again
would "he wish to bo anything more, only a
farmer's wife.
Conclusive. In a parlimentary com
mittee for a new railway it was necessary to
prova populous a certain valley. The fol
lowing questions and answers passed ia the
process :
'"Do you mean to toll the committee,"
said the counsel for the opponents of the
new line, "that you never saw an iuhabited
house in that valley?"
"Yes, 'I do," replied the witness.
"Did you ever sec a vehicle there in your
life?"
"Yes.""
"Very good.
Some other questisns were put, which led
to nothing particular, but just as the witness
was leaving the box the learned gentleman
put one more qucstian :
"I am instructed to ask you if the vehi
cle was not the hearse of the last inhabi
tant?" "It was." -
A Virginian asserted the belief that a
aian who has a stomach that can always
digest cabbage has physical force enough to
lay stone wall all day without fatigue.
Always be good natured if you can. A
few drops of oil will do more to facilitato the
movement of the most stubborn machinery
than rivers of vinegar.
Boys remember you grow older every day,
and if yoa have bad habits, they grow older
too'and the older both get, the harder they
are toseperate.
Patience is the surest remedy against
calumny; time sooner or later will disclose
the truth.

do not strive to b better than he ia.
Dear Boys, Corns Back.
Thus read a quaint and charming adver
tisement for the re-opening of a boy's school,
and as it met our eye, the thought came,
how many hearts might echo that entreaty
Dear boys, come back.
How many a kt ely household where there
are no longer pattering footsteps and merry
voices, where all is silent save the memory
of the little ones who have been called away
to their anpel home ; or have grown up and
gone forth into the busy, bustling world and
are thus as fat removed" from the familiar
scenes of the'r.childhood as if they had in
deed crossed the river dividing the seeu fiom
the unseen.
How many a lonaly mother, living over in
her tender, seaming heart the happy days
of the long ao, says with an eager entreaty
Dear boys, come back.
Alas I the longing can never he fulfilled
the boys are no more !
Some, with the dew of the morning still
shining on their sunny hair, were years ago
committed to the keeping of mother earth,
"ashes to ashes dust to dust." .
And the others are tall arid stalwart. strong
and active men. with bearded faces and care
worn brow-. They turn aside, at long in
tervals it may be, from their own family cir
cles, to itathor under the old roof tree ; to
talk of the past, the present and the future;
but it is with dividedj interests, with new
plans and purposes; the new homo fun be
come dearer to them than the old, and other
boys are clustering around their firesides,
who. in turn, shall go forth ; to : Luild nests
for themselves. - - - '
Thus goes on the continual progression,
and therefore, while time shall last will the
old cry be heird, Dear boys, coma back.
. O, ye mothers, who arc careful and troub
led over the countless tasks devolving upon
maternity, do not murmur; grow not impa
tijnt et the constant demands on your lime
and attention ; do not complain, fliough the
little feet are rctless, and the liltje hands
mi.-chevious.an.l the wills stubborn and way
ward. Strive to fill your home with joy and
gladness ; make it a fair and p'easant spot
to your children. Do not look on your toil
as unrequited or irksome. Gather all the
roses, and let not the thorns rankle on your
pillow. Garner up happy memories for
yourself and your little ones, for the day will
surely come when o I, too, will reiterate the
pleading. Dear boys, come ba;k !
In that day jiiay your own record an 1 re
ward be, "Her children rise up and call her
blessed I"
"No Sbc-iet, Doctosi!" "I noticed,"
said Benjamin Franklin, "a mcchanic,a'iioni!
a number of othets at work on a house erect
ing but a little way from my office, who al
ways appeared to be in a merry humor who
had a kind and cheerful smile t'wr every one
he met. Let the day bo evcrsocold.gloomy.
or sunless, a happy smile danced like a sun
liea til on his cheerful countenance. Met tiu
him one morning. I asked him to tell me the
secret of his constant happy flow of spirits.
'No secret, doctor,' he replied. 'I have got
one 6f the best of wives, and when I go o
work she has always a kind word of encour
agemctit for in; ; and when I go home she
meets inc with a smile and a kiss ; and then
tea is sure to be ready, and she has done so
many little things to please me, that I can
not find it in my heart to speak an unkind
word to anybody.'"
What influence, then, has woman over the
heart of man to soften it. and make it the
foundation of cheerful and pure emotions !
Speak gently, then ; a kind greeting, after
the toils of the day are over, costs nothing,
and goes fir towards making home happy
and peaceful. Young wives and girls, can
didates for wives, should keep this in mind ;
as to older wives, experience may already
have taught them this important lesson.
And what we say to wives, we say also to
husbands a loving word and kiss go very
far with a woman.
Sick Headache. A recent medical wri
ter thus accounts for sick headache, from
which so many persons suffer. He attributes
it to a weak stomach and imperfect digestion,
and that the attacks are usually preceded by
a greater than ordinary appetite. The stom
ach is naturally weak, and so long as it is
not crowded it works kindly. By and by
more food is put into it of more iiratating
kinds than it can digest. It ferments, an
acid state is produced, the acid acts as an
irritant upon the coats of the stomach, and
this irritation is taken as a call for food, to
satisfy which, more is taken.-and all to no
purpose; the poor stomach revolts.bui with
the rest during the headache, and the relief
from the vomiting, it recovers its wonted
tone. If this be correct, the remedy is a
very superb one, abstinence from food for a
meal or two, or a denial of bho unnatural
cravings of the appetite', wjuld eui to.be
all that is required. Sufferers from this dis
ease should test the value of this advice.
Tom Hubbard, of the Logan Gazettt.peta
off the following original sensation : '.'Here
is the wheel-harrow. Forsimplicity of con
struction, strength, courage, and general
iroral character, it is the superior of the ve
locipede, aud ought to he encouraged."
A Fcrsiao , philosopher bain asked by
what method he had acquired so much
knowledge, answered : "By not being pre

I was ignorant." t-

THE KIDNEYS.
The Kidneys are twotn Dumber, sitnated at the
upper part ot the loin, surrounded by fat and
comisting of three parts, vis : the Anterior, tbe
Interior, mnd tbe Exterior.
Tbe anterior absorbs Interior consists of tis
ucs or veins, which servo as a deposit for tbe
urine mnd convey it to tbe exterior. Tbe exte
rior is c conductor mlra, terminating in a single
tube, and called tbe Ureter. Tbe wreters are con
nected with tbe bladder.
.. .. ... . -.. . ,
Tbe bladder i composed of Tinoat coverings
or tissues, divided into parts, vix: tbe Upper, tb
Lower, the Nervous, mnd the Mocons. Tbe upper
expels, the lower retains. Many bars a eTsair to
urinate without tb ability, others urinate with
out tbe ability to retain. This frequently occur
in children.
To cure these affections, we mast bring into mo
tion tbe mascles, which mre engaged in tbeir va
rious functions. If they ere nslcoted .Gravel or
Dropsy may ensue. .
Tb reader must also be made awaro. that how
ever slijbt may be tb attack, it is sure to affeo
th bodily bemltb mnd mental powers, as our flesh
mnd blood arc supported from these sources.
Goer, or RnrcBATissi Piin occurring in the
loins is indicative of the above diseases They
occur in persons disposed to acid stomach mnd
chalky concrotions.
Tub Gratcl. Th crave! ensues frem neglect
or improper treatment of tb kidaeyt These or
gans being weak, tb water is not expelled from
th bladder, but allowed to remain; it becomes
fcterieh, and sediment forms. It is from this de
posit that tb stone is formed, and gravel ensues.
Drtorsr is m collection of water in some parts of
tbe body, and bears'different names, according' to
the parts affected, vis: when generally diffused
over tbe body, it ia called Anasarca ; when of tbe
Abdomen. Asclte; when of tb ehest, Uydrotho
rax.
Trbatuikt. Htlmbold'f highly conceatrmted
compound Extract Buchu is decidedly on of tb
best remedies for diseases of tbe bladder, kidneys,
gravel, dropsical swellings, rheumatism ,mnd gouty
-affections. Under this bead wo have arranged
Dysnrio, or difficulty mnd pain in passing water, j
Scanty Secretins', Or small mnd frequent dischar- i
ges of water; Strangury, or stopping of water;
Hematuria, or bloody mine; Gout mnd Rheuma
tism of the kidney, witboat any change in quan
tity, bat iaerems ia color, or dark water It was
always highly recommended by tb lata Dr
Pbysiek, in these affectiens. .
This medicine increases th power of dlgestlen
and excites tbe mbsorbemts into bealthy exercire
by which the watery or eaieareoHs depositions
and all ennatnral enlargements, aa well' as pain
and inflammation are reduced, and it is taken by
men, women and ebildren. Directions for as mnd

Dear Sir : I bare been m sufferer, fer Upward
of twenty years, with gravel, bladder and kidney
affections, daring which time I have used various
medicinal preparations, and been under tb treat
ment of tbe most eminent Physicians, experien
cing but little relief
Having seen your preparations extensively ad
vertised, I consulted with my family physician in
regard to oitag year Extract Bucbtt.
I did this because ( bad used mil kinds of ad
vertised remedies, and had found them worthless,
and soma qait injurious ; in faot, I despaired of
ever getting well, and determined to use no rem
edies hereafter aniens I knew of tb ingredient.
It was this that prompted me to use your remedy.
As yoa advertied that it was composed of buobu.
inbeb mnd juniper berries, it occurred (o me mni
my physician as an excellent combination, mnd.
a itb bis advice, after an examination of tbe arti
cle, and connlting again with th drnggist, 1
eonoluded to try it. 1 commenced it use about
eight month ago, at which titn I was confined
to my room From tb fret bottle t Was astonish
ed and gratified at tb beneficial effect and after
using it three weeks was b: to wr.lk out. I fait
much liko writing yoa m full stmtemeut of uiy caso
mt that time, but tbongbt my improvement might
only bo temporary, and therefor concluded to
defer and se if it would effect a perfect cur,
knowing than it would be of greater value to yoa
and more tatisfactory to m.
I am pow able to report that m ear is effected
after using tbe remedy for five months.
I have not nsed any now for tbree months, mad
fee! as well in mil respect as I ever did.
Yonr Buchu being devoid ot any cnpleasant
taste and odor, a nice toni.i mr.d invigorator of tbe
system, I do not mean tu bo witboat it whenever
eeomeion may require its use in each affection.
