Setting the table fur breaklast, Driving the cows away, , Churning the cream In the pantry, Airing the rooms up stairs. Making the pies and the biscuits, Jinking the apples and pear*.

Willing to do, while a frown Seldom is seen on the features Always with pleasure aglow ; Give me a sweet country lassie. Of folly, pray w hut do they know t No need do they have of ‘ cosmetics;” Their cheeks have tilt tint of the rose; And a smile, parting lips that t re dewy, Such perfect w hite teeth w ill disclose I Eyes like twin violets hidden. 'Neath lids, that are lairer than pearl. What stylish miss from the “city , Can comp ire with a true country girl ? Nantuccket, Sept. 7, 1871. The Proper Way to Pop the , Question. [From the Louisville Commercial.) Don’t be too sudden about it. Many a girl lias said “no when she meant “yes,” simply because her lover didn’t choose the rijht time and pop the question gently. Take a dark night for it. Have the blinds dosed, tbe curtains down, and the lump turned most, out. Sil neur enough to her so that you can hook your little finger into hers. \\ ait until conversation begins to ting, and then quietly remark: “Susie, I want to ask jou some thing.” She will fidget around a little, reply “yes,” and after a pause you can add: “Susie, my actions must have shown —that is, you may have seen — I mean, you must be aware that— that—” Pause here awhil”, but keep your little finger firmly locked. She may cough aud try to turn the subject off by asking you how you liked the cir cus, but she only does it to encourage you. After about ten minutes you can continue: “I was thinking us 1 came up the path to-night, that before I went away I would ask—that is, I would broach the subject nearest my —I mean, I would know my—” Stop again and give her hund n gentle squeeze. She may give a yank to get it away, or she may not; in either case it augurs well for you. Wait about five minutes and then go on: “Iho past year lias been a very happy one to me. Rut I hope that future years will be still happier. However, that depends entirely on you. lam here to-night to know— that is, to ask you—l mean lam hear to-night to hear from your own lips the oue sweet ” Wait again. It isn't best to be 100 rash about such things. Gve her plenty of time to recover her compo sure, and then put your baud on your heart, aud continue: “Yes, I thought as I was coming through the gute to-night how happy I had been, and I said to myself that if I only knew you would consent to be my—that is, I said if I only knew —if I was only certain that my heart had not deceived me, and you were ready to share — Hold on —there’s no hurry about it. Give the wind a chance to sob aud moan around the gables. This will make her louesonie ami call up all the love in her heart. When she begins to cougl* and grow restless, you can go on: “Before I met you this world was a desert to me. 1 didn’t take any plea sure in going blackberrying and steal ing rare-ripe peaches, and it didn l matter whether the sivn shone or not. But what a change in one short year! It is for you to say whether my future shall boa prairie of happiness or a summer fallow of Canadian thistles. Speak, dearest Susie, and say—and say that - that—-” Give her five minutes more by the clock and then add: “That you will be—that is, that you will —I mean that you will be—be mine ! She will heave a sigh, look up at the clock, and ove* to the stove, and then as she slides her head over on vout vest pocket she will whisper: “You are just right, I will. A Beautiful Incident.— A naval of ficer being at sea in a dreadful storm his wife, who was sitting in the chair near him, and filled with alarm for the safety of his vessel, was surprised with his composure and serenity that she cried out. “My dear, are you not afraid ? How is it possible you can be so calm in such a dreadful storm ?" He rose from his chair, lashed to the deck*, surporting himself by a pil lar of the bed-place, drew his sword and pointing it to the breast of his wife exclaimed: “Arc you ftfruid of tbut sword t She instantly answered, “No." “Why ?” said the officer. “Because,” rejoined the lady, “I know that it is in the hands of my husband aud he loves me too well to hurt me.” “Then,” said he, “remember, I know in whom I believe, and that he holds the winds in his fists and the water in the hollow of his hands.” J.
