If we knew the woe and heartache Waiting lor us down the road, If our lips could taste the wormwood, If our back could feel the load, Would we wait in such impatience For our ships to come trom sea ? If we knew the baby fingers Pressed against the window pane. Would be could and st’fl to-morrow— Never trouble us again, Would the bright eyes of our darling Catch the trown upon our brow, Would the priut ot roty fingers Tex us then as they do now? Ah, these little ice-cold fingers, r How they point our memories back To the hasty words and actions Strewn along our backward track. How these little hands remind U3, As in snowy grace they He, Not to scatter thorns ; but roses, For our reaping by and by. Strange we never prize the music Till the sweet-voiced bird has flown ; Strange that we should slight the violets Till the lovely flowers are gone. Strange that summer skies and suushlne Never seem one-half so lair As when winter’s snowy pinions Shake their white down in the air. Lins from which tha seal of silence None but God can roll away, Never blossomed in such beautj As adorns the mouth to-day ; Aud sweet words that freight our memory With their beautiful perfume, Come to us in sweeter accents Through the portals ot the tomb. Let us gather up the sunbeams Lying all around our path, Let us keep the wheat and roses, Casting out the thorns and chaff, Let us And out sweetest comfort; In the blessings of to-day, With a patient hand removing All the briars irorn onr way. A VBhY Rkmariablk Stouy.—The following is lrom the Hearth and Home: “ There lived in Brooklyn, not long ago, a man possessed of a devil. He had inherited the devil from his father, in the first place, and had nursed It until it grew so strong it took entire possession of him. The devil was a very familiar one, and its name was Rum. The man had many noble in stincts, and, better than all these, he had a falth iul, loving, brave wife, who made skillful war upon the demon, her husband’s master. Recog nizing the fact that her husband was under an overpowering impulse, that he longed and strug gled manfully to free himself from the passion for drink, she bent all the energies of her woman nature to the task of helping him She loved, and suffered, and toiled, until at last the loving, and suffering, and toiling accomplished tbeir pur pose. She took her husband by the hand and shared with him all of his struggles, until, after years of labor, she overcame his devil, and saw him a free man again. Her battle with Rum had beeu a fierce one, taxing and wasting her strength sorely, but she was conqueror at last. Her hus band stood upon manly feet, aud showed no sign of falling again. Several years passed away, and this reformed man fell ill of consumption. The distinguished physician, from whose lips we have the story, prescribed alcoholic stimulants as the only means possible oi prolonging his life. The poor wife was in terror, and begged the physician to recall the prescription. She told him of her long struggle and her victory, and said she pre ferred that her husband shcultl die then, a sober man, than to fill a drunkard’s grave a year later. But the freed spirit of the man was strong, and lie undertook to take alcoholic liquors as a medicine, and to confine himself absolutely to such times and measures iu the matter as the phy sicians should prescribe. This he did, and during the months added to his life, he never once drank a single drop more than the prescription called for, and he died at last a sober man, as the wile had so earnestly prayed that he might. But the end was not yet. When the loving and patient woman laid him in his grave, and saw her long labors thua ended in the victory for which she had toiled so hard and suffered so bitterly, she turned, in grief, to the brandy which had been left in the house, and drinking it, she fell herself into the power of the devil which she had fought so heroically. And that woman died, not many months later, a hopeless, helpless drunkard.” Ilow the Boy Arises. —Calling a boy up in the morning can hardly be classed under the head of “ pastimes,” especially if the boy was fond of ex ercise the day belore. And it is a little singular that the next hardest thing to getting a boy out of bed is getting him into it. There is rarely a mother who is a success at rousing boys. All mothers know this; so do their boys. And yet the mother seems to go at it in the right way. She opens the stair door and insinuatingly ob serves: “Johnny.” There is no response. “John ny." Still no response. Then there is a short, sharp “ John,” following a moment later by a pro longed and emphatic “John Ilenry." A grunt from the upper region signifies that an impression has been made, and the mother has been encour aged to add, “You’d better be getting down here to your breakfast, young man, before I come up there, an’ give you something you’ll feel.” This so startles the young man that he immediately goes to sleep again. And the operation has to be repeated several times. A fatter knows nothing about this trouble. He merely opens his mouth as a soda bottle ejects its cork, and the “ John F.enry” that cleaves the air of that stairway goes into that boy like electricity, and pierces the deepest recesses of his very nature. And he pops out of bed into his clothes, down the stairs with a promptness that is commendable. It is rarely a boy allows himself to disregard the parental summons. About once a year is believed to be as often as is consistent with the rules of health. He saves his father a good many steps by his thought fulness.— Danbury Sines. Exactly Right —The New Orleans Herald says a few days ago a distinguished physician of our city happened in one of our street cars, with a certain notorious Judge, who justly regarded aa the cheit plotter of the ruin and the author of the calamities of our people. The Judge, endeavoring to secure the attention and engage in a familiar conversation with our medical friend, was met with the emphatic rebuff: “3ir,l do not recognise your right to speak to me or approach me iu lriendly guise. ” “ Why not, Doctor, I have never done you any harm. ” “ Simply, 6ir, because I regard you as the great est thief and villiau in this community.” ———# In the course of a sermon delivered by Mr. Beecher the other day, he referred to the subject of humbling one’6 self before God. “ I beseech you,’’ be said, “to avoid that kind of crawling, that prostration that takes manhood out of a man. I don’t think that God wants a man to crawl be fore Him like a worm. I don’t think He is any mere pleased to see that than you would be to see your children act so. I have a little dog at the firm that wben I come is so exceedingly glad that he lies down aud squirms and rolls over on his back, so that I want to kick him. That same dog, although he is so affectionate, will steal chickens. Now, a dog don’t know any better, but a man does, and it seems to me as if men think that if they humble themselves before God and say all manner of scroutching things, that will fit them for the work. There is no manliness in this.” ■ > . The Southern Cultivator is a home work and iu justly fine reputation as a first-class work should secure for it a wide circulatiou. Pub lished by W. L.
