Until its tender passion

With scream of Mint, and buy st of shell,

"Wife," 'said Edward Lincoln - , ne Ito set,
tied himeelf on the Sofa, one t;vening after tea,
"we must have some new furniture ftir this
pat lA% thOre's no two ways about it ; ours is
getting to look decidedly shabby." •
" Do you think so ?" quietly replied Mrs.
Lincoln. -• "Lthought it looked very comfor
table and nice here," and her eye glanced with
a housekeeper's pride over the room; • which
did wear an aspect of taste and comfort, though .
every article of furniture was the same which
was' bought at the time of their marriage, ten
years before.
Nothing was 'zioni but the, ing"rain carpet
was of bright, fresh colors, and of sueli grace
ful pattern that it was still pleasing .to the
eye; there *as a large, wolLfilled book -case,•
801110 pretty engravings scattered about on the
walls' and side-tables, and the tenure-table„
with,itzt brightly-burning solar lamp, its little
vase offlowerS, and its work basket, books and
papers, wore* the Coziest look imaginable ;
while the sofa on which Edward Lincoln wan
lying, though covered with inexpensive mate
rial, matched the carpet and paper, and look
ed the very picture of ease and comfort. Its
fined taste and culture.were visible iu (lie ar
rangement of every article, as well as the hand
of the neat, thrifty house#ifo ; well might
Mrs. Lincoln say, "everything looked nice and
comfortable.", . . • -
" Why, yes, comfortable enough, perhaps,"
rejoined her htniband,, "but so old•fambioned,
and behind the times! There's John Waters
has just. had both his parlors newly furnished,
and I can tell you, Helen, Anne look elegant
there. The carpels and curtains are really
splendid, and the sofas and chairs are covered
with damask of a beautiful pattern. I haven't
seen anything so handsome for a long. time ;
ours looked dingy enough when I came home."
After a little pa se he added, "I know John

house in that styl than lam ; . and the Brigitte -

said, laying' her band softly in her husband's,

"Nothing but your economy, lichen, your

should have been but for your industry and

we have a godd . ino o ine , and oau afford some
luxuries."
-" En we can; mull too want luxuries, but
what is a luxury, Edward" Is ic,not a great
luxury to know that we owe no man anyildng;
that we are layirg by something every year
for the children ; and then," she said with a
tender tone of voice, and a tear shining in her
soft blue eye, "it is such a luxury to help
those poorer than - wk. 0, what a heart satis
fying pleasure it was to settle the IVoods on
that little farm last year, and to be able to
carry' flannels, fuel and food to so many poor
sick people. Tet us look at things an they
tire; and not through other people's eyes. We
don't Want more costly furniture for our own
enjoyment„it is only that other people may
admire it, and whata poor gratification is that,
Computed 'with other pluasures money can
bring! Why, it was only to day I was think
ing it seemed almost wrong for us to he. no
fully gratifying every mite and wish when
there was so much suffering in the world, so
many children crying with hunger, no many
shivering with cold, su many lying on sick
beds, without the—little comforts they need;
and above all, so !unity sunk in
- vice and de
gradation, who perhaps might be saved by the
hand of charity held to them. 0, Edward,
those words of Jesus about self-denial.. must
have some meaning- for us who prolesh to be

" t believe you are right, Ilelen. You al
wayekbee the light more clearly thou 1 do.
Still it.oannot be-wrung to indulge our tastes
In on extent, and to enjoy What in beautiful
in nature:and in art." •
"To enjoy. what is really beautiful is a
different thing liont being merely fashionable,
from having costly dresses and furniture, which
unto ettener in had 6810 than good, Still Ido
not believe we ought to be ton self-indulgent

do 1; for itiufthrating 'one's taste for
art is such a different thing from getting up•
holstry. Ido really think there is snmething
low and vulgar in making a display of fine
furniture, and in trying to be.sviarter than

flint thqt essential vulgarity of Americans, so
obvious-to foreigners, consists; no ether•nn

Why, Helen, how.you do comedown on a
poor body ? You make me out selfish, un
feeling and unchristian, jai because 1 want
to smarten up a little ; and as Hall these were
not enough, you cap the climax by making me
out vulgar too. And so I suppose lamto be
compelled to live on in the old humdrum,

and cheerfully you go to your daily labor,
working hard from morning till night, and
then coming home, so thoughtful of e me, so
gentle and cheerful, if you are ever so tired ;
while I so often get impatient and irritable."
And why am Iso cheerful? Why can I

' And he drew the true and gentle wife be

as full of devotion and tenderness as over lover
gave his mistress, while his eyes beamed with
joy and pride as he gazed upon her sweet face,
blushingly upturned to meet his gaze.

EXTRAORDINARY STORY.—About the e , year
1837, Sir John' Pouwicic, of Fenwicic
England. married .MII, Seymour. Site was
the daughter of a poor Cumberland clergyman
and of course brought to the union neither
money nor influence: but was beautiful and
moat amiable, and for seventeen - years her
husband loved her with a most passionate
love. But, at the end of that titne, two sisters
of Sir John, despairing of what they had long
bolted for, the death of his only son and heir,
the true hero of this story, persuaded Sir John
thM, his wife hathtconfessed to them that her
son was the offspring, not of her husband, but
of a foreigner, with whom, even during her
honeymoon, she had intrigued at Paris. Over.
%looking in his rage the obvious interest his
sisters had in deceiving 'him ' Sir John ban
ished both mother and son from his house.
The for Mer, after many painful vicissitudes,
died,' having previoultly sent her son to one of
her relatives settled on an extensive ranch or
farm on the borders of Te7.fls. While residing
there, he was carried into captivity by tho In
dians, front whom ho escaped; penniless and
half naked, and we next fled him in a lawyer's '
office, and subsequently in that of, the Clinton
_Herald newspaper. ' HCre he made his moth-,

taken in hand by the British COnsul at Chiortgo
and by that gehtlemartintroduced to the Prince
of Wales, who, being :convinced, of the truth
of his Story, Wok hitri'with hini to England.
Arrived there, Jahn Fonwick, , thertyounger.
proceeded at ence , to Fenwick Hall, and there
found that one of his evil autitswas dead,:and
that the other was fast dying, and in her agony

within, and then heard the same voice he
had heard the same day upon the street,
crying as if in great distress. His heart, he
said, leaped with joy when he heard the
mournful 'evidences that he had not been de•

peeping in between the parts of a tattered
curtain saw a poor looping elderly lady, pale
and emaciated, lying upon a scantily furnish

' accommodate itself' to almost any condition,
provided it be assumed gradually. The use
of flannel guards against sudden changes of

olf rhpi , ily, the quick evaporation carries
witli it muell heat from the body, and a chill

contains Much air in its meshes, and is there.
