CEX’ri’Rl PLANT. Steeped in sunshine. bathed in dew, Year by year the strang- plant grew , liut no grate of flower knew. Pe'ing it. a zealot E-id, Hotly Blinking Ilia young head, “Without works, sura one is dead.” Did it start impatient then, Try to break Us bands of green, A\ itb the life that throbbed between? Nayl it seemed but as before, Though its heart may more and more Life’s sweet pain have pondered o’er. Half n century had passed, And the plant still bloom less cast Broader shadows. But at last One fair morning, passing by Someone looked, and with a cry Called the people, far and nigh. Bar from out the circling green There arose a wondrous sheen, itud and bloom did overlean The broad leaves, and climb so high, All their beauty none could spy Save the tender, smiling sky. “ Tis a tree of soft, pale flame, (Jreenly wliorled,” said one who came, Trying vainly, thus to name Such unwonted loveliness. Ju their prodigal excess Bud and bloom seemed uumberleSHt But the zealot humhly said, Bo wing low his hoary head, “Low! it teaches in my stead. “Now I know that soul is great, Which, aware of its estate, Nobly is content to wait. “As for me, O foolish man! 7 have learned that no one can git in judgment on God’s plan. “When ’tis time for deed or flower, He alone can strike the hour From the heights of liis watch-tower.” A PLEASANT EVENIIVU. O, freffi as fair, sweet laughing girl, Who, out of pure good nature, Essay’d with me the waltz’s whirl, Kegardless of my btature; And who, though I was almost old Enough to ha your father, Was neither silent, brusque, nor cold, But seemed to like me rather; Who chatted, danced another dance. Till in my exultation, ] thought it quite a happy chance You were not my relation. For then you had not had the {lower Though ne’er so bright and beaming, To make me waste one pleasant hour In sweet (if idle) dreaming. Till I forgot that 1 was stout, While you were sligli* as willow, And had pathetic thoughts about. My solitary pillow. Till I forgot that 1 was curet With gout and indigestion. And in sentimental hurst Had almost popped the question. Til)—well, yorr mother claimed my arm To lead her to her carriage, And proudly praised your wit, your charm, And—your approaching marriage. All, owner of that open lirow, 1 fear that I shall miss you; 1 would I were your father now, A moment—-just to kiss you; My eyes to your pure eyes to lift With (rank affection kind, To speak my blessing, give my gift, Without a thought behind. iHiihing limne Beautiful. A beautiful Louie is the loveliest spot on earth. No painting is equal to it; no work of art can be compared with it. It is not only a centre of life, like a ware- house or school-room; it is the centre of the happiest and best life we know any thing about. And half of the beauty of even the loveliest home is invisible to the eye—the beauty of pure affections and tender offices and sweet sympathies, and the sacred memories of the heart. The plainest good home, on which love pre* sides as a guardian aDgel, is a happy, hal lowed spot, where the virtues and graces nestle together, and heaven seems always near. And it is because home is the visi ble shrine of the tenderest and sweetest elements t*f the heart, and is bound up with all that is lovely and sacred in ex perience, that we naturally wish to make it beautiful. There is no architecture nor upholstery that can take the place of the affections which make home the sweetest place in the world. Carved furniture cannot sup ply the place of love, and velvety carpets and damask curtains are not a substitute for patience and kindness. The more men think of home the more they desire to beautify it. The old home was not Buch as we should be satisfied with, but it was the best our ancestors could make, and the best thing they had. Its walls were low; its rooms were dark; its lloors were bare ; its great fire on the open hearth so cheerful and picturesque to look at, roasted one side of a person while the other shivered with cold; the straight back chairs were so high that sometimes only the toes of the occupant could touch the floor; there was little paint on the walls, and no pic tures to speak of save the family por traits, sombre things which made the children almost glad the originals were safely underground. It is surprising how much people enjoyed life with so few of what we consider the comforts of life. But their homes were as beautiful as they could make them, and the lack of upholstery was made up with a spirit of hearty content. .Here Beauty. It is natural that men should admire beautiful women; bnt it would be well to remember that there are qualities of far more importance than mere personal charms. True, we may be fascinated with a dark, lustrous and beautiful eye, the crimson blush of the cheek, a graceful, symmetrical form: but, after all, the in quiry should be: Is there a soul within? Is there elevation, thought, generous principles, noble purposes, a cultivated intellect? If not, what else would a wo man of beautiful personal appearance be but a doll or gilded toy? How long could a man of genius be induced to worship at such a shrine? Strong affec tions invariably accompany a man of ge nius. Hence it is clear that unless per sonal charms envelop a cultivated mind as well as the sterling qualities of vir tue, the noblest impulses of affection in such a man will be extinguished, and his fondest hopes blighted in the selection of a partner for life. COLUMBUS SUNDAY ENQUIRER: SUNDAY MORNING, AUGUST 26, 1877, Hunting tbe Key. My wife looked worried and whispered that supper was ready, but she couldn’t “find that pantry key;” she knew the company was hungry, for it was late; that sugar was in the pantry, aDd she couldn't find that key, wouldn’t I please find it? Certainly, I said, bless her heart; don’t be troubled, I’ll find it; and I started out quite cheerfully. I looked on the mantel-piece and on the table and side-board. It was very ^ident it was not there, so I said quite gaily, it must be in tbe other room So I went into the spare room and looked on the bed and wash stand, the bureau and the window seat; went in the parlor and looked on the piano and the book case; upstairs and on all the mantel-pieces, and beds and chairs. I came back and asked if she was sure she had had it lately. She said she was certain she had it fifteen minutes ago. So I looked nnder tbe sideboard, and under the door mat and the fender, I went in the spare room and looked in the grate and in the water pitcher, nnder the pillows and on the clock. I excused my self for interrupting the company, but I went in the parlor and looked in the coal scuttle, shook the guitar case, and look ed behind the pictures, and in the books and in tbe flower vases, and shook all the shells. I then ran up to our room and looked in my boots, and in the pockets of my Sunday coat, and then in all my wife's pockets. I came back into the dining-room and found my wife and the cook and the house girl and two children all looking for the bey. I asked my wife if she was right certain that she had tbe key to day, but she looked so hurt at me that asked her to forgive me, kissed her, vow ed I would never doubt her again, and went upstairs declaring I would And that key or die. I got a step ladder and look ed on top of the wardrobe, in a hat box and a batch of raw cotton, and sixteen paper collar boxes. Then I went in our room and took everything out of my wife’s trunk and Bhook them all carefully and in the soiled clothes basket, and laid each piece in a separate place on the floor. I looked up the chimney. I went back in the dining room and stirred in the gravy dish, and run the fork through the butter, and looked in tbe match safe, under all the plates and nnder the beef steak. I went in the kitchen snd looked in the cupboard, the cooking stove, the refrigerator, the rat trap, the coal pile, the cider barrel and rat hole. I came back in the parlor aDd moved the piano, and the book case, and the pier table, turned the chairs up side down and look ed under their bottoms. I apologized to the company and said we had only mis placed a key a little. They looked hun gry, and seemed truly to sympathize with us. I heard my wife and the cook and the house girl and the two children in the cellar moving cord wood, sheet iron, empty barrels and flower pots, got a ladder and went up into tbe attick looked under the onions and on all the strings of red pepper, and then I looked out on the roof, and just to feel sure that I had not neglected any place, I looked down the chimney and at the lightning rod. Coming down stairs I met my wife and felt like telling her the key conld not possibly be in the house; but she looked so troubled and worried that my heart was touched and I couldn’t say it; but I determined that I would have that key if I would have to take up the carpets and all the loose plastering. So I got the step ladder again and looked over every door and window in the house. I got down on the floor and felt all over the carpets. I looked in the dog’s mouth and down both barrels of my shot gun I happened to think about Major Andre and felt in my boots. I looked at the baby to see if he looked like he had swallow ed anything. I shook the broom and looked in the clock, poured out the ink, and looked in the camphor bottle; and then I came into the dining room and felt inside a cold turkey with a spoon looked in my pocket-book, blew through my flue, looked at the ceiling, felt in my hair, and down the back of my neck; looked under the cat, and opened a can of oysters (had to be opened any how,) broke open a loaf of light bread, and felt the pound cake (durned thing might have got in the dough). I hated to say so, but I told my wife I would just have to give it up, but I told her I would have that door opened if I had to blow it open with glycerine. I got a hatchet and a monkey wrench, and a bootjack, sent to six of the neighbors and borrowed all tbeir keys. I picked out one, and when I went to stick it in that pantry lock there was that pantry key sticking in the keyhole. Children’s Column. Wood Knles for Wedded Lite, 1. Never speak loud to one another, unless the house is on fire. 2. Let each one strive who shall the oftenest yield to the wishes of the other. 5. Neglect the whole world rather than neglect one another. 4. Never part for a day without loving words to think of during absence. 5. Never meet without a loving wel come. G. Never forget the happy hours of early love. 7. Never sigh over what might have been, but make the best of what is. 8. Never forget that marriage is or dained of God, and that his blessing alone can make it w’hat it should be. 9. Never let your hopes stop short of the eternal home. 10. Hang these rules in a little frame over your dressing-room mantel-piece, and study them daily. “Oh, heavens, save my wife!” shouted a man whose wife had fallen overboard in the Hudson river recently. They succeeded in rescuing her. And her husband tenderly embraced her, saying, “My dear, if you’d been drowned, what should I have done? I ain’t going to let you carry the pocket book again.” Iboning.—To iron smoothly purchase a few cents' worth of beeswax, and rub it over the leaves of a thin pamphlet, which have been heated through with the flat iron; keep it with the ironing sheet and blanket, and when the flat-irons are to be need rub them over the waxed sur face; then wipe gently on a soft cloth. Shirt bosoms eaa be easily ironed in this gunner. Many Who are Suffering From the effects of the warm weather and are debilitated, are advised by physicians to take moderate amounts of whiskey two or three times during the day. In a little while those who adopt this advice frequent ly increase the number of “drinks,” and in time become confirmed inebriates. A beverage which will not create thirst for intoxicating liquors, and which is intend ed especially for the benefit of debilitated persons, whether at home or abroad, is Dr. Schenck’s Sea Weed Tonic. Contain ing the juices of many medicinal herbs, this preparation does not create an appe tite for the intoxicating cup. The nour ishing and life supporting properties of many valuable natural productions con tained in it and well known to medical men have a most strengthening influence. A single bottle of the Tonic will demon strate its valuable qualities. For debility arising from siokness, over exertion or from any cause whatever, a wineglassful of Sea Weed Tonic taken after meals will streughthen the stomach and create an ap petite for wholesome food. To all who are about leaving tbeir homes, we desire to say that the excellent effects of Dr. Scbenck’s reasonable remedies, Sea Weed Tonic and Mandrake Pills,are particularly evident when taken by those who are in juriously affected by a change of water and diet. No person should leave borne without takiDg a supply of these safe guards along. For pale by all Druggists. *ug2 eodim For the Sunday Enquirer. PUZZLES FOR THE CHILDREN. ENIGMA.

S, TWO LITTLE. BY MAEY MAPE9 DODGE. Two little girls are better than one. Two little boys can double the fun, Two little birds can build a fine nest, Two littlo arms can love mother best, Two little ponies must go to a span, Two little pockets has my little man, Two little eyes to open and close, Two little ears and one little nose, Two little elbows dimpled and swtet, Two little shoes on two little feet, Two little lips and ore little chin, Two little checks with a rose set in, Two little shoulders chubby and strong, Two little legs running all day long, Two little prayers does TIVy darling say, Twice does he kneel by my side each day, Two little folded hands, soft and brown, Two little eyelids cast meekly down. Moth Patches on the Face—Bathe the face two or three times a day in borax water; a teaspoonful of powdered borax in a basin of warm water. A Cube fob Rheumatism.—Lemon juice is recommended as a certain cure for acute rheumatism. It is given in quantities of a tablespoonful to twice the quantity of cold water, tyitk sugar, every hour. To Tell Good Eggs.—Put them in water; if the buts turn up they are not fresh. This is an infallable rule to dis tinguish a good egg from a bad one. Good Use fob Soap Suds.—Save your washing suds ror the garden; if they are poured over the roots of the plum trees they will kill the curculio; if turned at the roots of geraniums, roses, <fcc., they will enhance their beauty tenfold. To Cleanse Nubseby Bottles.—After the bottle has been used rinse it out with warm water, then fill it with warm water containing a teaspoonful of pul verized borax, and let it stand, shaking occasionally. If a rubber tube is used let it remain in borax water until needed. Borax will sweeten it quickly. In re moving the tube or bottle from the borax water it is not necessary to rinse it in clear water. The little borax that re mains on will prove a benefit, especially if the child’s mouth is sore. Remedy fob Whooping Cough.—Take half an ounce each of spirits of bearts- horn and oil of amber; mix them well together; every night and morning anoint well the palms of the hands, pit of the stomach, soles of the feet, armpits and backbone. As long as the ointment is being used do not allow the parts anoint ed to be washed; the back of the hand may be washed bnt not the palm; care must be taken afterward not to take cold. This cannot injure the smallest infant. Keep the bottle well corked. Equivalents of Weight and Measube. —Wheat flour, one pound is one quart. Indian meal, one pound two ounces is one quart. Butter, when soft, one pound is one quart. White sugar powdered,one pound one ounce is one quart. Best brown sugar, one pound two ounces is one quart. Liquids—Sixteen large ta blespoonfuls are half a pint. Eight large tablespoonfuls are one gill. Four large ta blespoonfuls are half a gill or one glass. A common wine glass is half a gill. A common tumbler to half a pint. Brandied Peaches.—To every pound of pealed peaches add one pound of su*> gar and one gill of white brandy; make a syrup of the sugar, add only enough water to dissolve it, let it come to a boil, then put the fruit in and let it boil five minutes; remove the fruit carefully, then let the syrup boil 15 or 20 minutes long er, nntil it thickens; add the brandy and take the kettle at once from the fire; pour the hot syrup over the fruit, and seal it at once. If, after the peaches have been removed, a reddish liquor oozes from them, drain this off before adding the clear syrup. Put up in glass jars that have been rolled in hot water. The peaches should not be over-ripe. White clingstones are, perhaps the best. EDUCATIONAL. COLXJMBXJS FEMALE EDUCATIONAL. COLUMBUS, 1HE NEXT SESSION BEGINS SEPT. 19th.
