BT HJUU.IBT BEES DtH bTOWt John Simmons life with noth ing bat a pair of hands. Hiring him self out as a common laborer, lie laid up gradually small stints of money. In time, lie was enabled to p*y in part the price of a farm, the r< inainder lie ing held upon morlgagc —the interest to be paid yearly, and the principal ir* installments, till the whole wow liqui dated. John took to wife Mary Evans, one of the prettiest girls iu the parish, and they two commenced housekeeping to gether. Mary brought, to the est *.b -I.saint ut beds and bedding, househ 4d iiisua, crockery, and china, the fruit t». her ow n industry, or the wedding g ,ts of her pare,its. Both imuerstcod t wt a iile of toil was iiefore them; but b th were young and hopeful, bred up to constant industry and economy, und their toils seemed light to them. John was renowned in his vicinity as the man who could do the longest and liar.lost and *y s work, and Mary soon became cel ebrated among the housewives for her -•kill aud prudence in household man agement. Her bnt*er was known ar< bringing an extra price; her cheese had i Venn rknble flavor aud tineness. She had a wonderful adroitness and skill in the cutting, shaping and making of household garments, and her husband was wont to boast that since his mar riage his clothes had cost him only one half what they did before. As to her own dress, such was her skill iu alter uig and mending, such her carefulness in wearing, that her personal expenses seemed scarcely a perceptible item. John and Mary became parents of r» numerous family, fcjix tine boys and three blooming daughters were sueeess tuliy added to their household, ihe care of rearing all these infants was en tirely borne by Mary without a ;>» f-l alter The birth of the nrst child, when a good woman < J fbc neigh-*, borhood can l4 * 60 look after things while aiary was getting back her strength- But after the first fortnight, yp.rj went back to her work with the ..tided care of the infant. As her chil dren grew up, she trained them to be her helpers. The eldest daughter ear ly became a proficient in houst hold in dustries, and when only twelve years of age wars competent to lake her mo ther’s place in the family at the birth of a little brother. These boys, when they were little, were likewise trained to household labor, and lielpc-1 ; vt motner m tne nouse **u large enough to make their services of value in the fields. In tune, this family became a perfect little industrial association, every mem ber of which was working tow ard one end—namely : the payment of the yearly interest on the mortgage, and the gaining of a turplua wherewith to pay the principal. lint so large a family has many ex penses. There were sic kness and acci dents to increase labors; there were bad crops, droughts, mid all the other disappointments of farming life ; and sometimes the domestic ark seemed to roll and plunge heavily, like a water logged vessel, threatening every mo ment to go over. John was something of a hypochondriac, and at these times would talk bitterty about family expen ses, and accuse his wife and daughters of extravagance, lie fell into » way, that many of the male sex have, of re garding every thing that is bought for a woman as of course a superfluity.— The pretty Sunday bonnets of his blooming daughters, their nice, lady like dresses, their little girlish orna ments, were remarked on with n sev iige severity. “I work hard for the mo ney tln*t you spend on finery,” was a common saying, accepted in silence by his wife and daughters. The fact was, that John never, in his own mind, considered that any work but his earned the money that paid for the farm and supplied the provisions for the family. Every cent that came into the family colters he regarded as ins by right of acquisition, and his wife and daughters as dependents upon his bounty. Now comes our inquiry. Who did earn the money that paid for John’s farm ? If his wife performed for him all the service for which he paid a tail or formerly, did she not earn that mo ney as really as the tailor? If John hud been obliged to hire a woman to perform the labors which Mary per formed in the house and dairy, how much a week would he have been ob liged to pay her? And did not Mary fairly earn this sum —as fairly as John earned his day’s work in the lield ? But suppose John had been ol liged, in addition, to hire a woman, not only capable of superintending his dairy, but of training his children, and in structing them in morals —a woman, in short, who should bo nurse, cook, housekeeper, and moral guardian, in addition to being tailoress, seamstress, and daiiy-woman -how much would he have had to pay for all these things j united, if he had been obliged to hue them by money, instead of getting them for love ? So much as he would have been obliged to pay, his wife earn ed every week of her life, and ought to have Lad freely put into her hands— not ns a husband s gift, but as her own lawful, proper earnings. It should have been her salary, and the choice left with her to spend it as she pleased. Then she could, and probably would, have paid her portion to raise the mortgage and secuie the family home stead. But because this salary, fairly earn ed, has never been paid her, her hus band cherishes the idea that he alone has earned the money paid for the farm, and that he supported his wife and daughters. Query : Has not his wife supported hru quite as much as he has supported I iiwr? niur-fjiy nf an Ox. I was bo’m : n Nebraska.

Exactness. —A carpenter wag once at a trial as a witness, and being asked vßry* lbiuC 1 1 1 '-'v far he was from the defendant when he saw him strike the plaintiff, said, “Just five feet four inches." “Zounds!” baa led the counsel, “how could you tell so exact ?” “Why, sir,” said ihe witness, “I thought some fool would atk me, so I measured it." Why preaching U ofl RTou-EF fect. The grandest achievements of Christ’s ministry were accomplished among the common people. On tiro mount, in the vales, by the seas, rivers ami lakes, they docked to hear Him by thousands, and the momentous truths which He uttered were gladly received and em braced by them. While the learned and the great and the self-righteous and the egotistical eould not and would not accept the snbiime system He in stituted, tha poor eagerly sought for opportunities to listen to the words of Hun “who spake as never man spake.” And such have been the characteristics of Christ’s gospel from that day to this. A lapse of nearly nineteen centuries re veals the same state of things to-day. The gospel inculcates as one of its car dinal, fundamental truths, humility of heart and life. And where this grace is wanting the truth falls upon the col as “sounding brass or a tinkling cym bal.” How can those who glory in their intellect, in their self-righteous ness, in their princely surroundings, stoop 1o embrace a system which re quires the sacrifice of a “broken and a contrite heart”! And, in our opinion, the main reason why the preaching of the gospel is attended by such meagre results m these latter days is because of the insuperable barriers erected to keep the common people from the house of God. The mania for extrav agance in personal attire has become great that the poor, seeing their in abiiity to stand the pressure, and feel ing nnwilling to become the laugliiug stocks of tlie giddy rotaries at the shrine of fashion, have relapsed into an indifference to sacred things that wiH be imrd to shake off. The people to whom the gospel would be most accept able never hear it. In their humble homespun and calico attire they are compelled to avoid contact w T ith those who adopt the worldly maxim that dress makes the man. \\ e should like to sec one place, besides the grave, where the rich and the poor meet together on terms of equality. We should l.ke to see conventionalities, which virtually exclude the common people, broken down. If fashion must be inexorable, let it not presume to invade the sanc tuary and dethrone Deity. There are other arenas where it can more prop eiiy hold high carnival. Let there be a lowering of the style of dress at Church. —Columbus Enquirer. “Come out here and 111 lick the whole of you,” said an urchin to some sticks of peppermint candy in a confec tioner’s window.
