Bushnell J- v - 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, C. Granade. M. R.
