And though poor be your purse, and narrow

Let us try to do good to all, If we can.

But Its beauty is fading, inconstant lu smile,—
While the beauty of kindness, like rosea in

SHARP WORDS.
“Nonsense!” said Mr. Wheaton short
ly-
Mrs. Wheaton’s face flushed scarlet;
she looked up at him, and, if I mistake
not, a sharp reply got as far as her throat,
but she choked it down: it did not part
her lips. She looked furtively at me,
but I looked steadily at the fire. Mr.
Wheaton all the time was quite uncon
scions of the stir his words had made
in one tender and sensitive heart.
Then Mrs. Wheaton murmured some
thing about her scissors and slipped out
of the room.
Mrs. Wheaton had ventured to make
some remark on some business question.
I think it concerned the morality of some
Wall 8: reet operation-. The subject was
one with which she bad no great ac
quaintance, and perhaps her woman wit
wasat fault Indeed, I remember think
ing at the time that it was, at least in part;
but what she said was not nonsense.
After Mrs. Wheaton had goneout there
was a moment or two of silence; then I
broke it. Mr. Wheaton and I are old
friends, and I presumed a little on that
fact.
“Tom,” said I, “how long have you
been married?”
“Twenty-four years next May,” said
he. “A year from next May, if we both
live so long, will be our silver wedding.
And yet it seems but yesterday that
Lucy and 1 were sleighing it in the moon
light that Christmas that I ran away from
home for my holidays, much to the
chagrin and vexation of my sisters,
because I found greater attractions at
Lucy Vine’s.”
“I wonder,” said I, speaking slowly
and musingly, as it were to myself —“I
wonder if that Christmas holiday you
would have spoken to Lucy Vine as you
spoke to your wife just now?”
“How?” said Mr. Wheaton; and be
turned sharply upon me.
“Nonsense!” I repeated; and I threw
into my own voice all the vigor and the
sharpness there had been in his. It was
a hazardous experiment, but Tom and
I were old friends; and at all events, there
wes no drawing back now.
He looked at me sharply for a moment,
and I looked at him; then his eyes went
back to the fire. “Shah!” said he, speak
ing to himself, “I wonder”— and then
quickly turning back to me, “Do you
suppose she minded it?”
“What did she get up and go out for
without a word in reply ?” I asked.
“To get her scissors, I believe,” said he.
I laughed at him. “It is taking her a
long time to find them,” I replied.
“Yes, she did mind it. If you had seen
the quick flush in her face, and the quick
look, first at you and then at me, and the
choking at the throat, and the nervous
movement of the hands, you would not
have doubted that she minded it. Sup
pose she had said to you ‘Nonsense!’ ”
and I fired it at him as explosively as I
could ; “How would you have liked it ?”
He shook his head slowly; he was still
studying the fire.
“Suppose I bad said to her, ‘Non
sense!’’’(explosively as before); “how
would you have liked it ?”
“I would have said vou were no gen
tleman,” said Mr. Wheaton; “but—
but”—
“But what?” said I.
“By George! John, a fellow can’t be
studying all the time how he’ll talk to
his own wife, you know. If he can’t be
free at home, be can't be free anywhere.
She ought not to be so sensitive. She
knows I didn’t mean anything. ”
“Tom,” said I, “if any one else accused
you of saying something when you didn’t
mean anything, you’d g‘ t redder in the
face over it than she was just now. You
did mean something. You meant ex
actly what you said. You thought what
your wife said was nonsense, and blurted
it right ou 1 .”
“Well, it was nonsense,” said Mr.
Wheaton.
“I am not so sure of that,” said I;
“but if it were, that was no reason why
you should tell her so.”
“Do you always weigh your words
when talking with your wife, as if you
were in a witness box before a Philadel
phia lawyer?"
“No matter what I do,” said I. "Per
haps I have learned a lesson here to |
night that will make me more careful
hereafter. Os one thing lam very sure, ■
Tom; if we were as careful of our wives |
after twenty-five years of married life as
we are of our girls in courtship”—
But I did not finish my sentense ; for
just at that moment the door opened and
Mrs. Wheaton came in. I had barely
time to notice that she had forgotten what
she went for; for she had no scissors in
her hand, when Mr. Wheaton in his
warm impulsive way, reached out his
hand, caught hers, drew her to him and
said, “Lucy, my dear, Mr. Laicus here
has been giving me a regular going over
for speaking to you as I did just now.
It was nonsense, you know; but I had
no business to tell you so; at least, not
in that brutal style.”
She flushed redder than before ; then
stooped down ; brushed the rich, black
hair off from his forehead ; put a kiss
upon it; thanked me with her eyes; and
then said. “I declare I forgot my scissors
after all,” and slipped out of the room
siurtii n .
“By Jove, John,” said Mr. Wheaton,
grasping me by the hand, "I am much
obliged to you. I remember Lucy
always had a sensitive soul; I wonder
if I have been pricking it with sharp
words without knowing it all these
years. I think I have learned a lesson
io night which I shal not soon forget.”
“I think I have learned one, too,” I
replied. Christian Union.
THE CHRISTIAN INDEX AND SOUTH-WESTERN BAPTIST! THURSDAY, APRIL 18, iKKI.
COURTESY Al HOME.
While it is comparatively easy to be
courteous towards strangers, or towards
people of distinction whom one meets
in society or in public occasions, still it
should be remen. bered that it is at home
in the family and among kindred, that
an every-day politeness of manners is
really most to be prized. There it con
ferssubstantial benefitsand brings sweet
est returns. The little attentions which
members of the same household may
show to one another day by day, belong
in fact to what is styled “good breed.”
There can not be any ingrained gentility
which does not exhibit itself first at home.
There, of all places in the world, it will
be able to demonstrate how much gen
uine politeness there is in the heart. A
well ordered family cannot afford to dis
pose with the observance of good rules
of natural intercourse, which areenforced
in good society. A churlish, sour, mor
ose deportment at home is simply cruel,
for it cuts into the tenderest sensibilities
and hurts love just where love is strong
est and most loyal. Parents and child
ren, brothers and sisters, husbands and
wives, never lose anything by mutual
politeness. On the contrary, by main
taining not only its forms, but by the
cultivation of its spirit, they become con
tributors to that domestic felicity which
is, in itself, a foretaste of heaven.
The Hidden Wisdom of God.—The
mind of a pious workman, named Thier
ney, was such occupied with the ways
of God, which appeared to him full of
inscrutable mysteries. The two questions,
“How?” and “Why?" were constantly
in his thoughts—whether he considered
his own life, or the dispensations of
Piovidence in the government of the
world.
One day, in visiting a ribbon manu
factory, his attention was attracted by an
extraordinary piece of machinery. Coun
tless wheels and thousands of threads
were twirling in all directions; he could
understand nothing of its movements.
He was informed, however, that all
this motion was connected with the cen
ter, where there was a chest which was
kept shut. Anxious to understand the
principle of the machine, he asked per
mission to see the interior.
"The master has the key,” was the
reply.
The words were like a flash of light.
Here was the answer to all the perplexed
thoughts. Yes, the Master has the key.
He governs and directs all. It is enough.
What need I know more? "He hath
also established them for ever and ever;
he hath made a decree which shall not
pass.”
Clinging to the Rock.-One morning
last summer I was standing in the shad
ow of a great rock by the seashore. It
rose hundreds of feet towards the sky,
its gray sides so steep and awful that it
made me giddy to look up. Presently
I saw, far above my head, little patches
of something white and golden, and I
soon found they were clusters of “moon”
daisies which had taken root in tiny holes
in the rock and flowered there, and their
brave little heads up at that great height
nodded as happily to the sunshine and
tbe breeze as though they had been grow
ing down in some low-lying level field.
The dark waves might break and toss on
the rocky shore below, and the rough
breeze came close up to them and shake
them as if determined to carry them
away, but the daisies had no fear. They
were perfectly safe, for they were cling
ing to the rock, and that rock was stron
ger than the wind or the waves of the
aea. So are all little children in the arms
of Jesus. — Mary Rawles.
DO SOXETBIN6.
If the world seems cold to you,
Kindle fires to warm it!
Let their comfort hide from you
Winters that deform it.
Hearts as frozen as your own
To that radiance gather;
You will soon forget to moan,
“Ah 1 the cheerlesa weather 1”
If the world’s a "vale of tears,”
Smile till rainbows span it;
Bieathe the love that fife en 'ears—
Clear from clouds to fan it.
Os your gladness lend a gleam
Unto souls that shiver;
Show them how dark sorrow’s stream
Blends with hope's bright river 1
—Selected.
Little Sins.—Many things that men
look upon as small and trivial, God looks
upon as important; and in their issues
they often prove to be so. Unspeakable
blessings or untold curses sometimes fol
low little things, according to their char
acter. A little sin, yielding to tempta
tion in some matter regarded as trifling,
will defile your conscience and mar your
peace. The action of a watch, however
well finished, is easily stopped by a little
dirt; the transparency of the clearest
glass is obscured by a little smoke; the
snowy whiteness of the finest linen is
soiled by a little mud, and the beating of
the heart towards God becomes feeble
and irregular, and may be stopped by a
little sin. And he who commits little
sins often, soon deadens his sense of sin,
and he whose sense of sin is deadened
not only sins often, but sins without
shame. Alas, the conscience of some sin
ners are palsied.— Si'as Henn.
Handy Hints.
Cotton wool wet with sweet oil and lauda
num relieves the ear ache very soon.
To obtain a glossy skin : Pour upon a pint
of bran sufficient boiling water to cover it.
Let it stand until cold and then bathe the
face with it, only patting tbe skin with a
soft towel to dry it.
You can get a bottle or a barrel of oil off
of any carpet or woolen stuff by applying
dry buckwheat plentifully and faithfully.
Never put water or liquid of any kind to
such a grease-spot
To take iron stains out of marble: An
equal quantify of fresh spirit of vitriol and
lemon juice being mixed in a bottle, shake
well, wet the spots and in a few minutes rub
with soft linen till they disappear.
If your tongue is coated and you are suf
fering from biliousness, liver troubles, or any
difficulty of tbe kidneys, bladder, or urinary
organs, take Warner’s Safe Kidney and Liver
Cure without delay. All troubles of the
kidneys or liver, however slight, are dan
gerous, but this remedy is a certain protec
tion against them all.
“I don’t want a plaster,” said a sick man
to a druggist; “can’t you give me something
to cure me?” His symptoms were a lame
back and disordered urine, and were a sure
indication of kidney disease. The druggist
told him to use Kidney-Wort, and in a short
time it effected a complete cure. Have you
these symptoms? Then get a box or bottle
to day, before you become incurable. It is
the cure— safe and sure.—Knoxville Repub
lican.
OBITUARIES.
Died, at his residence, tn Wilkes Co., Ga.,
March 16th, 1881, Christopher Binns, aged
about seventy years. He was a member of
the Baptist church at f’ardls, WUkes Co.,
twenty vears or more. He wss noted tor
punctuality In attending his church meetings
and manifests d great Interest in the success
of the cause. As a citizen he filled different
offices of Oust end honor, such ss sheriff and
representative In the State Legislature. He
was a lover of hospitality, and always de
lighted In the visits ot his friends, especially
ministers of the Gospel. By close attention
to business and well directed economy, he
accumulated considerable property. He
leaves a wife and large famfly of children
to mourn their loss, which, we trust. Is his
eternal gain. W. M. C.
Died near Powder Springs. Cobb county
Ga April Bth, 1881, Mrs. Rebecca Armor, wife
of Rev. Wiley G. Armor.
The subject ot this notice was born In Cobb
county, Ga., May 4th, 1849 United with the
Bap'lst church at Springville Cobb county,
Ga.,ln the yen-1863, was baptised by the
Rev. Whit Hamric. She lived a devoted lite.
Was a kind mother, a dutiful wife, a good
neighbor, and a useful church member. She
has left a husband, two children, an aged fa
ther and mother, two brothers, and a host of
frle ids to mourn her loss.
Tne writer preached her funeral at the
Baptist church at Springville, to a large and
sympathising congregation, from this text,
"Truly this Is a grief, and I must bear It. We
can only say, farewell sister, until we meet
ajaln. R- Babeh.
Called home from earth to heaven Oct. Sth,
1880. Jethro Edwards, eldest son of Hon. Geo
C. and Mrs. Anna M. Thomas. ofWatklns
vllle, Ga., aged nearly seven years.
Little Jettfe was a bright and beautiful boy,
the pride and Joy of a happy Christian home,
a pet and darling with all who knew him.
Vigorous In health, with a cleat quick mind,
as earnest truthful character he gave prom
iseofanoble manhood, which would be a
bletslng to bls race. But “the Master had
need ofhlmand disease his dread messen
ger laid Its chilling hand on the active, mer
ry boy. Very bravely and patiently were all
the terrible sufferings borne, and when
“In the chill before the dawning
Between the night and morning,”
Christ came—quietly and meekly bls little
follower left the worn and wasted little body
and went to the arms of the loving Savior.
"Gem ot our hearth, our household pride,
Earth’s undefiled,
Could love have saved thou had’st not died
Our dear sweet chi'd I
Humbly we bow to Rite’s decree
Yet bad we hoped that time should see
Thee mourn for us, not us for thee ”
"Yet ’lls sweet balm to our despair
Fond fairest boy,
That heaven le God’s and thou art there
With him In Joy;
There past are death and all Us woes;
There beauty’s stream forever flows;
And pleasure's day no sunset knows.”
"Then be to us, O dear, lost child 1
With beam of love,
A star, death’s uncongenial wild
Smiling above 1
Soon, soon thy Tittle feet have trod
The skyward path, the seraph’s road
That led thee back from man to God.”
Tribute of Respect.
(By Beaverdam Baptist church, Wilkes
county, Georgia, April Nth, 1881).
Brother Christopher Binns was born lu
Wilkes county, Georgia, April 6th, 1811, and
died March 16th, 1881, at his home in bls na
tive county, a short distance from the place
of his birth, within a few days of his "three
scoi e and ten.” He bad been for years a suf
ferer from cancer, but died of heart disease
We think he joined the church In mature
manhood after Indulging a hope from early
youth. This profession he never dishonored.
Though often honored by bls county with
positions of trust—her highest civic trust-he
never forgot his obligations to bis church.
He loved the assembly oi the saints, as was
evinced by his punctual attendance at the
house of prayer.
He was ever ready, of his ample means, to
contribute when satisfied that the object was
worthy, ahd his liberality wffs not confined
to his own church. He was a friend to the
worthy, the poor, the neglected.
Though brother Binns was not a member of
our church, yet he was such a constant
member of our congregations—Saturday and
Sunday—from our earliest recollections, and
so cheerfully aided us by bls counsel a id
means, that we’felt, as he often said, that he
was "at home with us,” he was one of us.
Therefore, be It
Resolved, Ist That, while the State has lost
an honored citizen, his wife has lost a devo
ted, faithful husband, his children a loving
father, his own church (Sardis) a consistent
member, we. too, are bereaved He will not
again meet with us.—we will behold his
face no more;—but we grieve not as those
who have no nope. We submit to the will of
Him who doeth all things well.
Resolved. 2,1. That this tribute be spread
upon our Minutes, a copy be presented to
the family of brother Binns, and a copy for
warded to The Christian Index with request
to publish. W. M Green,
