Weary hearts! weary hearts! by the cares
of life oppressed.
Ye are wandering in the shadows—ye are
sighing for a rest. . ..
There is darkness in the heavens, and the
earth is bleak below,
And the Joys we drink to-day may to-mor
row tarn to woe.
Weary hearts! God Is rest.
Lonely hearts! lonely hearts! this is but a
land of grief, , ,
Ye are pining for repose—ye are longing for
relief. , . ,
What the world hath never given—kneel
and ask of God above,
And yonr grief shall turn to gladness—lfyou
lean upon His love,
Lonely hearts! God is love.
Restless hearts! restless hearts! ye are toll
ing night and day.
And the flowers of life all withered, leave
but thorns along your way,
Ye are waiting, ye are waiting till your toll
ing all shall cease.
And your ever restless beating is a sad—sad
prayer for peace,
Restless hearts! God is peace.
Breaking hearts! broken hearts! ye are des
olate and lone.'
And low voices from the Past, o’er your
S resent ruins moan!
e sweetest .of your pleasures there was
bitterest alloy—
And the starless night had followed on the
sunset of your joy,
Broken hearts! God is joy.
Homelss hearts! homeless hearts! through
the dreary, dreary years.
Ye are lonely, lonely wand’rers, and your
way is wet with tears;
In bright or blighted places, wheresoever
you mav roam,
Ye look away from carthland, and ye mur
mur where is home?
Homeless hearts! God is home!
The woodsarc still as gardens full of flowers;
The leaves bum brightly in the smoky
haze—
Crimson and scarlet, gold and russet brown.
How rich the tints of these autumnal
days.
The air seems scented with the purpling
grape;
It stirs the blood like to the ripened wine;
It tells us of the finished harvest time—
The finished hour is the real hour divine.
So may our lives have Indian summer
tides;
Of mellow suns; bright leaves, and golden
grain,
Where death itsclf’s more beautiful than
life,
And through the haze is seen the eternal
grain.
HITMAH WOES.
CHII.DHOOD’8 GRIEF.
I never browned a slice of toast,
it mattered not how hard I tried,
But down it tumbled in the dust.
And always on the buttered slue.
YOUTH’S LAMENT.
•Twas ever thus, from childhood’s time
Ive seen my fondest hopes decay;
I ne’er sent in a little rhyme,
But what it was returned next day.
MANHOOD’S WOES.
I never hung up skates to sell,
Trusting to nature’s fickle law.
But when I’d advertise them well.
And puffed them, It was sure to thaw.
The Woman’s Hotel.
This hotel, devised and built by the
late Mr. A. T. Stewart,is to beopened
on the first of the coming year. If
properly conducted, this hotel may
become’ the most famous in the coun
try, and it will be an institution de
serving of the study of philanthro
pists throughout the world. If the
conception of the plan was Mr. Stew
art’s, it affords new proof that he was
a man of ability and benevolence,
rtar The Women’s Hotel has been built
' i .nd furnished at a cost of two mil
lions of dollars. This large sum of
1 money is the gift of the millionaire
1 merchant, but ne took pains that it
should hot be so bestowal as to gen
erate dependence on elemosynary aid
epe:
thii
tion of accepting alms, is a very dif
ficult matter. Therefore, Mr. Stew
art showed sense when he planned
this institution, which is to De cori
ducted on business principles, every
woman.taking advantage of ite privi
leges, paying for what she gets and
saving her set-respect. It is a poor
way of helping people, to exact of
them a return of gratitude which
\ involves a confession of their inferi-
. oritv to you.
The Women’s Hotel contains over
, five hundred rooms, all of Which look
Jc _put on the street, and all of them are
fu»**A,v..'l com/erfably and neatly.
A firegrate cook will nave charge of
the kitchen, and thus the women who
put up at this hotel will profit by
what more conduces to good health
than doctors’ prescriptions—and that
is, the proper preparation of food.
This kitchen, we are told, is equal to
the cooking of food in a scientific
style for five thousand people, and
the hotel itself has a capacity for
lodging one thousand persons.
A feature of the plan is the furnish
ing of meals, or parts of meals, at
cost, to those who may come for
them. Girls who are not able to se
cure quarters in the Women’s Hotel
. will have the opportunity of profiting
by this advantage. It is an itnpor-
tant matter. The great masa of
working women with us alre improp
erly fed. They hurry through a
breakfast, cat a luncheon of pickles
and pies, and take such dinners as
they get. If they learn through the
bills of fare offered by the Women’s
hotel that neither men nor women can
efficiently work without substantial
and well cooked food, they will be
wiser and better off than they have
been.
A Bit 'of Harriett Experience.
I married my wife about thirty-five
.years ago. The ceremony was per
formed about seven o’clock in the
morning. Before retiring that even
ing we had a good talk with each
other, and the result has sweetened
our entire lives. We agreed that'
each should always be watchful and
careful never, by word or act, to. hurt
the feelings of ihe other. We were
both young, hot tempered, both posi
tive in our likes and dislike*, and
both somewhat exacting and Inflexi
ble—just the material for a life of con
jugal warfare. Well, for a few years
we found it hard work to always live
by our agreement. Occasionally (not
often) a word or look would sup off
\ the tongue or face before it could be
" caught or suppressed; but we never
flowed “the sun to go down upon
four wrath.” Before retiring at night
y on such occasions, there was always
V confession and forgiveness, and the
/ culprit would become more careful
in future.
Our tempers and dispositions be
came gradually more congenial, so
that after a few years we came jto be
one in reality, as the marital ceremo
ny had pronounced us nominally.
In thinking back we find that for
more than twenty years our little
agreement has been unbroken, and
there been no occasion for con-
fession or foigiveness. In business
A Raceilif Caart.
During the progress of the exami
nation of Minkhouse and Leary, for
an outrage, some person or persons
not having a due sense of the awful
majesty of the law or the dignity of
the court, scattered a villainous mix
ture of snuff, Cayenne pepper, Baber-
ry bark and most probably a slight
sprinkling of cownage about the
room. It happened at the time that
the audience was extremely large,
and of that mixed description that
generally congregate about the pur
lieus of a court of justice. The insin
uating dust soon began to 'take effect,
a concert of sneezing mixed with

“Silence!” shouted the marshal.

By this time the epidemic had ex
tended 1# within the bar, and there
was as much coughing and sneezing
as ever was heard within the House
of Representatives during d prosy
speech of an unpopular orator.

“I suggest an-ehee-te that they be

The judge, who by this time had
coughed and sneezed until his face
was as red as the comb of a turkey
cock, was struck by the idea, and a
posse of officers being called from be
low, cleared the room of the unhappy
multitude, who, upon their egress in
to the street, gave such a connected
diabolical sneeze that a couple of
horses that were hitched outside be
came scared, and breaking their bri
dles, scampered frantically away.

Shaving Soap.—The Druggists
Circular gives the following formula
for a shaving soap: Take white soap,
four ounces; spermaceti, one-half
ounce; olive oil, one-half ounce; melt
them together and stir until nearly
cold; scent with such oils as may be
agreeable.

These are removed at once by cyanide

water, and place a few grains of the

To Glean Marble.—Take two
[iarts common soda, one part pulver
ized pumice-stone, one part finely
jowdered chalk; sift the mixture
ihrough a fine sieve and then mix
with water; rub it thoroughly over
the surface of the marble, and the
stains will be removed; then wash
the marble over with soap and water.
Paste for Cleaning Metals.—
One part of oxalic acid and six of rot
ton stone; mix with equal parts of
whale-oil and spirits of turpentine to
a paste.
A Paste for Family Use.—The
Druggists' Circular gives the follow
ing receipt for making a paste similar
to that used on postage stamps and
gummed labels: Dextrine, two
ounces; acetic acid, 4 drachms ; alco
hol, 4 drachms; water, two and a haif
ounces. Mix the dextrine, acetic
acid, and water, stirring until thor
oughly mixed; then add alcohol. For
attaching labels to tin, fitst rub the
surface with a mixture of muriatic
acid and alcohol; then apply the
label with a very thin coating of the
paste, and it will adhere almost as
well as'oh glass.
To Press Ferns.—Gather before
the sporangia breaks open and care
fully place between the leaves of a
large book, leaving several thicknes
ses of paper between each frond; put
the book under heavy pressure and
in a moderately warm place. The
fems should be changed at least every
other day; if fertile fronds of the
Osmunda are pressed, the change
should be made much oftener.
Loose but Sound Teeth.—Turk
ish myrrh diluted in water—at first a
teaspoonful to a tumbler, and gradu
ally strengthened—and used as a wash
four or-five times a day, will gene
rally give relief. There are only two
causes for the above trouble, vix.:
calomel and soda, and the use of both
must be stopped entirly.
To Prevent Blisters.—A plaster
composed of ground mustard, mixed
with white of an egg in place of
water will prevent a blister upon the
surface of the skin.
Cure for Hoarseness.—Spike
nard root, slieed and bruised, and
then steeped in a teapot containing
equal parts of water and spirits, and
the vapor inhaled, when sufficiently
cooled, will relieve the soreness and
hoarseness of the throat and lungs,
when arising from a cough or cold.
Asthma.—The following prescrip
tion is given by Hon. E. B. French,
of the Treasury Department: Iodide
of potassium, two drachms; tincture
of lobelia, naif an ounce; syrup of
senega, two ounces; camphorated
tincture of opium, half an ounce ;
water sufficient to make four ounces.
A teaspoonful every half an hour
until relieved. The above cured the
above named gentleman, and has
been used successfully in my own
family.
Cough Syrup.—One ounee of thor
ough wort, one ounce of flaxseed; sim
mer together in one quart of water
until the strength is entirely extract
ed ; strain carefully; add one pint of
beat molasses and half pound loaf
sugar; simmer them thoroughly to
gether, and when cold bottle tight.
A few doses of one teaspoonful at a
time will alleviate the most distress
ing cough of the lungs, subdues any
tendency to consumption, breaks up
entirely the whooping cough, asthma,
bronchitis, and all affections of the
lungs and throat. It is simple, safe
and effective.
Sick-room Receipts.—Wet two
heaping teaspoonfuls of the best Ber
muda arrwroot with a little water and
rub it into a paste. Have a porcelain
,n on the fire containing one eupful
•iling hot water, add two teaspoon-
fuls white sugar; when boiling add
the Wet arrowroot, stir it in slowly;
keep boiling and stirring until clear,
then add one teaspoonful lemon
juice. Have a cup ready, wet
with cold water, and pour the
arrowroot in to form. Eat cold, with
powdered sugar and cream. If wine
is preferred omit the lemon juice and
add instead one'tablespoonful of the
best brandy or three of wine.
For arrowroot blanc mange use one
cupful boiling milk instead of water
and two desertspoonfuls of arrowroot,
flavor with vanilla; eat with sweet
ened cream flavored with rosewater.
Sago may be used instead of arrow-
root, but must be soaked an hour in
cold water, then gradually wanned
by placing the cup containing it iu
hot watea. It needs a little more
boiling than the arrowroot.
.For arrowroot custard use two cup
fuls of boiling milk, mix the d^t
arrowroot with it, stir about three
minutes, remove it from the fire, and
whip in two tablespoonfuIs of white
sugar that has first been well beaten
up with one egg; boil again two min
utes, flavor with vanilla, pour into
molds.

of Premium have ceased, no other condition of the policy being violated. Under the law
the NEW ENGLAND MUTUAL LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY paid in 1875 £77,351.70;
and in 1876, 825,000 on 31 policies, on which the premium payments had ceased.
During the last 33 years, this company has issued policies to the amount of 8150,000,000
upon 55,000 lives, and has paid in.death claims and endowments 810,600,(XX), and has return
ed to its policy-holders more than 87,000,000 in dividends.
Being a purely Mutual Company', every holdor of a policy is a member of the Company,
and is entitled to a vote at its annual meetings, and to his full pro rata of the entire profits
.of the Company.
With a membership of 21,000,-an. ample reserved fund and an annual income exceeding
83/000,000, it is safe to say that the future operat ions of the Company will prove as advan

Prevalence or RapiXtlUan.
Have superstitious beliefs left the
more intelligent ranks of society? On
the suject of dreams itself is there not
a sneaking credulity which goes far
to prove to the contrary’ ? True, any
one of us is quite able to account in
a natural way for the character of his
or her dreams. Nevertheless, the
lady who chides her children for re
peating the interpretation which the
housemaid has put upon their sleep
ing vagaries, and sagely instructs
them on the subject of imperfect di
gestion and its effects upon the brain
during sleep, is not ashamed to im
part to her husband any morning the
particulars of her own shocking
dreams,or to piously express the hope
that something untoward is not about
to happen. Her better-half, pooh-
oohs the matter doubtless as becomes
