TUTATY YEARS AGO.
How wondrotis are the changes, Jkn,
Since twenty years ac'0,
When gals wore woolen dresses, Jim, .
And boys wore pants of tow
When shoes were made of calf ttin,
And socks of horoe-spnn wool;
And children did a fair day's work
Before tlie Lo'ir of 'school!
"When girls took music lesson?, Jim,
Upon the spinning wheel;
And "practiced" late and early, Jim,
Upon the spinning wheel;
Ti e boys would rido bareback to mil',
A dozen miles or so,
And .hurry off VToro; 'twas day,
Sonio tweiity years ago.
The people ro te to meeting, Jim,
In sleds, instead of sleighs,
And wagons rode as easy, Jim,
As buggies now-a-days;
And oren answered well for teams,
Though now they'd fcc too slow,
For people lived not half so fai-t
Some twenty years ago.
Oh, well do I remember, Jim,
That "Wilson's patent stove,"
That father b tight and pa:d f t, Jim,
In cloth cur gabs had wove;
And how the neighbors wondered
When we got the thin-; to go,
And said 'twould bust and kill us all,
Some twenty years ago.
Yes, ever j thing is different, Jim,
From what it used to was;
For men are always tarn pt ring, Jim,
V"Ith God's grcnt natural laws
And what on earth we're coming to
Does anybody know?
I'or everything has chann so much
Since twenty years ago.
MISCELLANEOUS.
The Wife's Hukc.
"Don't sit up for me to-night, Bertha."
said Philip Graham one pleasant evening, as
he went to bestow a parting kiss on his wife's
sweet lips, 1 have cugaged to take Mrs. Mor
timer and Misa Ellen to the opera to-Light,
and mav return late.
"Too bear Vestill. Oh, how delightful, ,1
had forgotten that phc was to sing to-nigLt.
Why m-iy 1 uot bo ouc of the party?"
"You illicit, I suppose, but I reall- you
go so little I. did not mention it to them
"Never mind, I can go some other time,
I dare say."
"Oh, yes, go to-morrow night, If you
like."
' Very wll, that will do."
Good-nisrht. then my love,' and with an-
' j other kiss Bertha was left alone.
Dear hanusome fellow, she stgncJ, throw
ing herself down on the low lounging chair
by the fireside, 'so good and so kind, if ha
din'nt care so much for society; and if that
gay widow and her bold daughter would let
him alone. The third evening this week he
has spent in company with them. True, I
was at that stupid party, but I am sure the-y
eugrossed much more of his atteution than 1
did; and others noticed it too.' Oue prime
maid asked me if I was not jealous, and that
lachrymose Mrs. Pryum who is always groan
ing, cast up her eyes and pressed my hand in
token of sympathy, when I bade her goenJ
nigbt. No, I am not jealous ; but I wonder
how he would like to have me flirt so. I
have half a mini to try it, If I only
knew any one I liked well enough.'
A sharp tinkle of the door bell startled her,
and a moment after, a tall gentleman, mous
tached and whiskered almost alarmingly, en
tered the room. Bertha manifested a little
surprise, half of terror, but the words,
'My dear Bertha, have you forgotten mc.
had not entirely passed the stranger's lips
ere she was in his arms, exclaiming :
Leonard-! dear Leonard ! Welcome home !'
'But where is your husband, dearest?' he
asked, half an hour later, when she had ask
ed and auswered many a rapid euestiou. 'I
wonder be can be tempted to leave this pleas
ant little home, and sweet wife a single evening-'
' . .
lie has gone to the opera,' 6he answered
hesitating slightly.
'Without you? Bull; suppose you have
some little whim to excuse you tirod of the
prima donna, or something of the kiud, I pre
sume. You should spend a winter in the
California mining districts in order to appre
ciate your privileges, he said laughingly.
'Is it too late ytt ? Will you go with
me ? Let mc be your cavalier once more as
in old times.'
An iJea occurred to Bertha ; here was an
excellent opportunity to put into execution
the plan which she was thinking of when be
arrived. What would prevent her? Noth
ing she resolved, and her auswer was,
I shall be delighted. I'm sure ; I will be
ready in a few moments.'
Besting gracefully upon the crimson cush
ions sat the fair Mrs. Mortimer and her fair
daughter Helen Mortimer, dressed with regal
magEiScence, and her gorgeous attire suited
well the dark style of her beauty. A smile
of triumph shone in her flashing eyes, as she
listened to the flattering remarks of Philip
Graham, whose very distinguished appear
ance, and polished manners, inade.him a most
areab'e companion, and to whose good offi
ces she trusted for admittance to circle? from
which her bold gaycty and freedom of man
ner might otherwise debar her. - -
As for Philip Graham, though he never
would Lave dreamed of such a woman for the
quiet atmosphere of home, yet he loved to
while away an hour in her Bociety, little
dreamiug that pain or anxiety was caused by
bis conduct, fine no word or act of Bertha's
fcint-d ar much.
'See Graham, exclaimed Miss Mortimer,
'is not that your wife in the box opposite us?
Bertha. I-declare ! How cam she here ?
and with a stranger too ! said Philip, lookitg
in the direction indicated.
Then you don't know him: said Mi?s
Mortimer. 'Very elegant in appearance, and
very much devoted to his fair lady. I should
say; some old lorer, I presume
Excuse mc. Miss Mortimer, my wife is too
ladylike for indelicacy,' he answered sternly,
Offended. Philip? and with me V she
aid, turning ber eyes pleadingly toward him.
Pardon me, 1 did but jest.'
She laid ber ungloved hand tipon Lis arm.
Bat the arts which had charmed and dazzled
th yvucg husband had lose their power, and
i bv..1j-n'ered politely her expression of
regret.
Bertha met his gazo of surprise, smiling,
bnt soon seemed absorbed in the music, and
the remarks of her companion, whose interest
in her comfort was sufueiently apparent. lie
fcemed well known amoug the audience, for
the watchful Philip noticed many bows of re-
cognition
There is Mr. .Goldiug, who knows every
body ; I will ask him the name of your wife's
attendant,' said Mrs. Mortimer, who had
marked with surprise, the discomposure of
Graham, whom, as she told her daughter af
terwards, she had supposed too much a man
of the world" to care for his wife.
'Mr. Goldiag, pray tell me the name of the
gcutiemau opposite the one with the mag
nificent beard and dark cjes?'
'Who I Why. I declare I it is my old
friend, Leonard Percy. lie must have arri
ved to-day. He ha? been absent four years.
I must go round and see bim I see Le Las
found Mrs. Graham already. I couratultc

Congratulate me! For what? muttered
Philip in surprise, a dim idea entering his
brain that Mr. Goldiug meant to insult him

! mer's earnest iuvitation to come in and spend
j an hour at cards, Philip hastened homeward
t in time to sec a carriage drive rapidly from
j the dour. Bertha was already unbinding her
tresses when be entered her chamber, and in
reply to his epucstione she only auswcreJ
carelessly.
'Yes, had an opportunity, and thought I
would improve it. You know it looks so stu-
J pid for manied people to be always together
in pub.ic. Leonard is an old fruud ot mine,
and I am 'ad he has returned, I shall enjay
bis society very much '
She was ouly repeating weirds which Phil
ip hud Ustd many a ti ne when ptaL-tug the
and gruce of some new acquaintance ; but
they did not seem very satisfactory now. for
he only muttered 'Lumph,' in a discoatctiVe J
way. aud was silent.

with Mrs and Miss Mortimer; aud so it
chanced that the two parties met on the crow
ded thoroughfare, and he had ju-t time to
catch a laughing glance and tLe wave of a
little gloved band from bis wife as the sleighs
dashed past each other. He spent that even
ing at home, but not alone with his wife;
Percy was there, and Bertha chatted with
him, played ibr bim. and tbey sang together
songs replete with love and sentiment songs
which he remiode-d her they had sung so of
ten together in 'olden time. At last, angry
with himself Lis wife and his guest, Philip
left the room, excusing himself on the plea
of business, but adding, 'that two such old
friends must have so much to say to each oth
er, that a third persou would be almost an
intruler.' Mr. Percy looked surprised, but
Bertha answered smilingly :
'Oh, yes, Leonard aud I have plenty of
subjects for conversation.'
Leonard, indeed, growled Philip, on his
way to the library. 'Confound the fellow
what does he mean with Lis old songs?'
He remained alone till the visitor departeJ,
and could hardly believe his own eyes when
he saw through the half open door, Percy im
print a kiss upon the brow of his wife, which
the received as quite a matter of course.
Pray, do all your friendj take t.beir de
parture in that loving manucr Y he asked as
she entered the library.
'Oh, no I But Leonard is a privileged
character, and besides, I am endeavoring to
bring my notions of propriety to a more mod
ern standard. I hope to become accustomed
to these improvements in time, and to take
them as easily and gracefully as some of your
favorite ladies do Miss Mortimer, for in
stance. I have noticed that you rarely meet
or part with her without sjme harmless liber
ties.' -
It was true that iu the fascination for the
bol l beauty, he had often raised her gay man
ners to his'wife, but it was strange how dif
ferent these things looked from a different
point.
But Miss Mortimer is unmarried ; and
besides it was all a joke, oar meeting aud par
ting in that way,' he auswered. .
Very well, Percy is uumarried ; and we
will call our parting a joke, if you please,
was the reply.
'As you will, but I donc admire such jokes,
I assure you.
What, jealous Philip? audi have been
in Percy's company three times Let's see,
once'at the opera, once sleigh-riJing, and
this evening."
- No, I am cot jealous, but I don't see what
has come over you. von s you know mat
you will rum your reputation if yoa go on in
this way ? With men it is different ; they
