with a widow,..ithae. Duval, in whom thov
found every qualification necessary. _Muer-

Southern Girls During the War.

Having , a Little Fun with Boys•
. Wo have recently heard a hood story—
good only as it represents the moral.condi
tion of Oshkosh society, -A-minister-from
a neighboring town started to go ovor•thero
ono day last week, on a kind of inissionary
ontarrnion
when within about six miles of the end of
his journey he met a man limping along
with the blood running down one side of his
face. The minister asked him if that Was
the road to Oshkosh:
"Yes, you tire on, the right- road, I just
come-from there. I've been up there hav
ing a little fun with the boys."
About two. miles further on he Met an-
nother man, one .arm in it sling, ono eye
.fiddly tirifigiid, and his clothing in a badly
dilapidated Condition.
"how far is it to Oshkosh?" asked the
.
minister: - -
"Only,(h-i-e) five miles," answered: the
pit:table object. "O'sh ' kosh is a live• towns
i've just.heen up there having" n little Jun
with the'boys."
With a sad heart the• fn .- Mister' drove on
falling into a revery on the depravity of
man in general and the Oshkcsbians in par
ticular when he suddenly came uPon'tt.man
sitting hyr the side of the road. One leg was .
61.uined, one car had been bitten off, Had,
seated by the side of a puddle of water: . he
was seeking relief by tithing . tlnl,parta af
fected. The minister was pelq . ectly .'!Awe
struck. §tOpping his , herse, --he ingiiired'of
the map what' terrible accident had befallen
the bleeding wreck. "I have only justbeen
up to Oshkosh having a little fun wMt the
boys." -•-- -
"I suppose y , u mean by that that you
have been engaged in some brutalizing
fight," said the minister.
"Yes," said the man, "I have heard that's
what they call it down at Fond du Lao,
were they are civilized; but they don't call
it by that name up tit Oshkosh.- There they
call •it having a lttle fun with the boys."
"What do you suppose your Wife will say •
when she sees you F asked_ the revereited
gentleman. .
At this the man looked up with a sardon
ic smile._ Putting his remaining well band
into a. pocket. lie_pr4led put a piece of nose,
a large lock of hair, to which a part of the
scalp was attached, and a piece of flesh he
had bitten from the cheek .of his opponent,
and holding them out for the minister's in
a-pedtioni-growled out:
"There, what do you suppose — his •wife
will say when she sees hint?"
This was it squelcher. As a4ious as the
minister was to overcome sin and do good
ho was not yet prepared to invade the_d_p_
trs'strimgholdi end turning around_ he re
turned home. The next time he starts on
a missionary enterprise to the frontier town
pf oshkosh - he L will take good care not to go
alone. Ho like u little-fun -now and then,:
but he don't care about having it "with the
boys." .
NIOUT IN SPRING Tmg.—Longfellow,
thus pictures a nighrin spring'time ; Not a
voice of living : thing—not a breath of wind
not a sound upon the earth nor in -the air.
And overhead bends the blue sky, dewy and
soft, and radiant with innumerable stars,
like the inverted bell of some blue flowers,
sprinkled with golden dust and 'breathing
fragrance. Or, if the heavens are overcast,
it is no wild storm of wind and 'rain, but
clouds that meet and fall in showers. Ono
does not wish to sleep; but lies awake to
hear the pleasant sound of the, dropping
rain.

to be satisfactorily demonstrated that every
time a wife scolds her husband she adds a
wrinkle to her Ace. It is thought the an

salutary effect, especially es it is understood
that every time a wife smiles on her husband
it will remove ono of the old wrinkles.
