There Is Room At The Top.
They say the professions ant crowded
By seekers for fsme and for bread :
That the members are poshing each other
As close as their footsteeps can tread.
But be not discouraged, my brother,
Nor suffer exertion to stop;
Though thousands arc pressing around
you,
There is plenty of room at the top.
Be true to thy lore and thy country—
The dastard wins never a prize;
But the earnest are ever the victors,
And he who on jaatice relies, — Braw <r»
Who wins the good guerdon by labor.
Will garner sweet rest as his crop,
And find, as the hills sink below him,
That there's room enough lett at the
top.
Oh ! let not the evil disturb you,
There's good if you but search it out;
Make pure thine own conscience, my
brother,
Nor mind what the rest are about.
And whether your work may have fallen
In sanctum, or office, or shop,
Remember, the low grounds are crowded,
But there always is room at the top.

flaw at some point in the document
which gave him opportunity for a fore
closure. Farmer Kingston was noti

have a month to pay it in. Unless he
raised the money in that time he might

The Farmer's Protege.

Old Farmer Kingston's wife raised
her hands in breathless wonder, and
her cap frills shook excitedly.

“ I know it, mother; hut little
Cora,” said Farmer Kingston, with a
sob.
“ O, little Corn ? Why, she’ll go to
the poorhouse, of course,” said Mrs.
Kingston, coldly.
The farmer gasped, but the next in
stant his wife had stooped and taken
little Cora from the floor, and was hug
ging and kissing her, and saying:
“ No they shan’t either, shall they,
poor dear! They wouldn’t send her
to the poorhouse for a tun of gold;
and while they have a roof to shelter
them, the blessed darling shares itwith
'em.”
“ Don’t ty, danma,” lisped the child,
in pretty babyish tones. “ Don’t ty—

But Mrs. Kingston only cried the

So the baby brought a blessing in

Chicago is a great distributing
centre for cattle, hogs and sheep.
By-ten different railroads they are
brought hither, to be sent off again
eastward, or killed and cured here.
In pork padring, Chicago threat
ens to leave Cincinnati far behind,
and in 1869,408,102 head of cattle,
1,661,869 hags and 40,072 sheep
were brought higher.
It is surely something good to
know that these immense droves of
animals are kindly treated, com
fortably lodged and fad while they
remain in Ah&'stock yard; that a
business too often conducted with
needless brutality is here managed
quietly and humanely, and that
even the good Mr. Bergh could
find no fault with the arrangements
or with the conduct of the men who
have these creatures in charge. In
A Western Wonder.
Chicago’s Great Stock Yard.
Chicago has once again astonish*

qliead of anything of the sort ever
conceived out of that enterprising
village.
The “ Union Stock Yard”—half
an hour by rail from the centre -of
the city—contains 345 acres, and
has a capacity for 21,000 head of
cattle, 75,000 hogs and 22,000
sheep, with stalls for 350 horses,
in all, therefore, for 118,350 ani
mals; and when all the ground is
covered with pens, it will accom
modate 210,000 head of cattle.
