3?raise Her.
Andrew Leo had coni) home from his
shop, whore ho hud worked oil (lay, tired
and out of spirits—como homo to his
wife who won also out of spirits.
“A smiling wife end a cheerful homo
—a paradise it would be !” Haid Andrew
to himself, as ho turned his eyes from
the clouded face of Mrs. Loe end sal
down with knitted brows and moody as
pcct.
Not a word wns spoken by either.
.Mrs. Lee was getting supper, and she
moved ft Poll t with ft weary step.
“Como,” she said at last, with a side
gluuce at her husband.
There whs invitation in the word only;
none in the voice of Mrs. Lee.
Andrew arose and went to tho table.
He was tempted to speak an angry
■word, hut controlled himself and kept
silent. Ho could find no fault with the
chop and the home-made bread nor the
fragrant tea. They would have cheered
his inward man if thero had lieen only a
gleam of sunshine on the face of his
wife. Ho noticed that she did not eat.
"Are you not well, Mary ?’’ The
words were on his li|>s, but he did not
utter them, for tho face of his wile
looked so rcpellant that he fen red an ir
ritating reply. Ami so in moody silence
the twain sat togolher until Andrew hud
finished his supper.
“This is purgatory!” said Leo to
himself, as ho commenced walking the
floor of their breakfast-room with his
hands thrust in his trousers’ pockets,
and his chin almost touching his breast.
After removing all the dishes and taking
them into the kitchen, Mrs. Is o spread
a green cover oil the table, and placing
afresh trimmed lamp thereon, went out
and shut tho door after her, and leaving
her husband alone willi his unpleasant
feelings. He took a long, deep breath
as she did so, paused in his walk, stood
still for some moments, and then draw
ing a paper from his pocket, sat down
by tho table, opened the sheet, and
commenced reading. Singularly enough
the words upon which his eyes rested
were, “Praise your Wife.” They rather
tendered to tho disturbance of mind
from which he was suffering.
“I lu>ul(l like to find Home oeon*ion
for praimug mine.” How quickly lim
thonghta cxproHHcd that ill-natnrcd hcu
timentl But lii eyes were on tho page
before him and road on :
“Praiso your wife, man; for pity’
Hake, give her n little encouragement; it
won’t hurt her."
Andrew Leo rained*his eyes from the
paper nnd muttered ; “Oh, yea! tbnt’h
all very well. Praise i cheap enough;
but praise her for what? Km
being sullen nnd making your home the
most disagreeable place in the world ?”
His eyes fell again on the paper.
"She has made your home comfort
able, your heart bright and shining,
food agreeable; for pity's sake, tell her
you thank her, if nothing more; she don’t
expect it; it will make her eyes o;x>n
wider than they have in ten years; but it
will do her good for all that, and you
too.”
It seemed to Andrew as if this sou
tenee were written for him, and just for
the occasion. It was a complete answer
to htH question. “l’raino her for what ?”
and he felt it ns a rebuke. He road no
further, for thought came too busy, and
in anew direction. Memory was c >n
victing him of injustice to lus wife ; she
had always made hm home os com
fortable as her hands could make it, and
had he offered the light return of praise
or comfort ho had experienced ? He
was not able to recall the time or occa
sion; as ho thought thus, Mrs. Lee came
in from tho kitchen, and hiking her
work-basket from the closet, placed it on
tho table, and sitting down without
streaking, began to sew. Mr. Lee
glanced almost stealthily at tho work in
her hands, and saw that it w as the bosom
of a shirt which she was stitching neatly.
He knew that it was for him sho was at
w oi k.
“Praise your wife.” The words were
Is'fore the eyes of his mind and he could
not look away from them; but he was
not ready for this vet. He still felt
moody and unforgiving. The expres
sion ou his wife's face he interpreted to
mean ill nature, and with ill nature he
had no patience. His eyes fell upon the
newspaper spread out before him and he
read tho sentence ;
“A kind, cheerful word, spoken in a
gloomy house is the little rift in the cloud
that lets the sunshine through.”
Lee struggled with himself a while
longer; his own ill nature had to he con
quered first; his moody, accusing spirit
had to he subdued. He thought of maev
things to hhv, yet feared to say them,
lest his wife should meet h a advance
with a cold rebuff. At last, leaning to
ward her and taking hold ol the linen
bosom upon which sho was at work, be
said in a voice carefully modulated with
kindness: “Yon are doing this work
very beautifully, Mary.”
Mrs. Lee made no reply, hut her hus
band did not tail to observe that she lost
almost instantly that rapid erectness
with which she hod lieen sitting, and
that the motion of the needle had ceased.
“My shirts are better made and whiter
than those of any other made in tho
shop,” said Lee, encouraged to go on.
“Are they ?” Mrs. Lee's voice was lew
and had in It a slight hnskiness; she did
not turn her face, but her husband saw
that she leaued a little toward him. He
had broken the Ice of reserve and all was
easy now. Ilia hand was smong the
clouds and a few feeble rays were already
struggling through tho rift it had made.
“Yes, Mary," he answered softly; “and
I've heard it said moie than onco what a
good wife Andrew Lee must have.”
Mrs. Lee turned her face toward her
husband. There was a light in it and a
light in her eye, hut there was something
in the expression of her countenance
that a little pusxled him.
“Do yon think so?” sho asked quite
soberly.
“What a question !” ejaculated An
drew, starting tip and going round to tho
side of tho table where she was sitting,
"What a question, Mary," he replied, as
lie stood before her.
“Yes, darling,” was his warmly-spoken
answer. "How strange that you should
ask me such a question."
"If you would only tell mo so now and
(lien, Andrew, it would do me good.”
Mrs. Lee arose, and leaning her face
against the manly breast of her husband,
stood and wept.
What a strong light broke in upon
the miud of Andrew Lee; lie lind never
given bis wife even the smallest reward
of praise in all the loving interest she
had manifested daily, until doubt of his
love hud entered her soul and made tho
light nil around her thick darkness. No
wonder that her face grew clouded, nor
what lie considered HKHslisliuess and ill
iiatnre took possession of his heart.
“Yon are good and true, Mary, my
own dear wife, I nra proud of you, I love
you, and my Ilrst desire is for your hap
piness. Oh, if I always see your face
in sunshine my home would lie the dear
est place on earth.”
"How precious to me are your words
of love and praise, Andrew," said Mrs.
Lee, smiling through her tears into his
face.
“With them in my oars my heart can
never lie in shadow.”
How easy had been 1 h work for An
drew Lee. He had swept his hand
across the cloudy horizon, and now the
bright sunshine was streaming and
flooding the home with joy and beauty.

A letter from Mahanoy City, Penn.,
says:—The outcries of the public against
tho Hungarian paupers crowded into
this region by New York emigrant
agencies have been so loud that the
Town Council at a late meeting,
appointed n committee to investigate the
subject, and twenty dens were visited,
tf the Hungarians lived like other peo
ple there would be no objection to them,
hut they congregate together in such
numbers and fi 1 tli as to breed disease.
The eommittee found 390 persons hud
dled together in the twenty places vis
ited. Most of these places were stables
converted into human habitations by
these people themselves. Few of them
contained more than one room, and In
this, men, women, and children lived—
eating, sleeping, cooking, nnd washing.
A few of the buildings woro without
floors. In one room, the largest visited,
25 by 35 feet in demeuaionn, were 13 men,
a woman, nud a child. The woman and
one of tho men kept the others as board
ers, One stable was divided into four
rooms and contained 18 persons. Avery
small building divided into nine rooms,
the partitions being made of the lumber
from dry g o<lh coses, contained 13 peo
ple, 3f> of whom were men, 4 women,
and 3 children. In one loom were 8
men, mid 7in another. Six rooms
visited had lit least 8 men each occupy
ing them.
Tho Conned last year encountered
similar trouble with tho Polanders, but
overcame it by reducing the number iu

enforcing health rules for those that re
mained. There will be a clearing out in
the Hungarian quarters during the next

Trouble lor (’hill,
Chili is evidently going to have pome
trouble with the European creditors of
Peru. Having taken a largo part of
Peruvian territory, tho resources of
which were pledged for foreign debts,
tile foreign creditors desire to have ap
plied the maxim that the annexation ol
territory carries its burden with it. Tho
Chilian view no doubt is that they and
the creditors have been engaged in what
is known iu the classical language of the
law ns a "race of diligence,” iu which
Don Patrick Lynch lues by means of his
army and navy clapped bis lien on tirst,
or in other words, that all foreign claims
must lie subordinated to those arising
out of the conquest of that country.
The foot is that Pern is bankrupt, and
has been so for many a long year, and
there are not enough assets to “go
’round.’’ The foreign creditors cannot
ask their Governments to go to war with
Chili over the distribution, and no Eu
ropeau Government could afford to insist
upon tho right of (lie bonds to be pre
ferred to the war claims of a country
which has got its security by fighting
for it. The matter will no doubt be
compromised iu some way.

A SERMON WORTH READING
A LI'HSOX ON PEKMd.NAL INFLUENCE*

(From the New York Herald.)
There never was a city since the
world liegau, said Henry Ward Beecher
in his Sunday sermon, just preceding
tho taking up of the collection, that had
more need of Christian sympathy and
succor than this city of Jlrisiklyn. When
I came to Brooklyn, thirty-seven years
ago, there was less Ilian 50,000 people
hero, To-day there are moro than 700,-
000, and i suppose before the "ve years'
census is taken in Brooklyn the city will
have verv near a million inhabitants. It
is the one city of the future ou this con
tinent. Manhattan is a bottlo island—
when it’s full, it’s full; but Brooklyn
lias all Long Island to spread out on.
There sre but five cities in all Europe
that are, equal in population to Brooklyn
—London, I’aris, Berlin, Vienna and Bt.
Petersburg. Besides these, Brooklyn
surpasses every city on the continent of
Europe. We are giving a very close
chose to New York itself. Wo are grow
ing faster than New York a good deal
faster than New York and for obvious
reasons; and there is no measuring whnt
will be the rapidity of its growth in the
future. New York in 1880 issued 23,000
permits for building. Brooklyn in 1883
issued 20,088. The difference is very
great on our side. In that part of the
year that is now elapsed eight or nine
months—the permits issued are in still
larger proportion of gain over building
in New York. We are surpassing New
York in the number of factories and in
the importance of those llmt are building.
We are surpassing New York in all the
industries that require the water edge,
having here a shore line of more than
twenty-five miles. Now, while there are
in this great city nearly 800,000 people,
there arc only 205 churches, chapels and
houses of worship, which gives one
church to every 2,021 inhabitants. In
the outlying wards, with a population of
450,000 people, there is church seating
for only about 50,000, leaving about
400,000 people in those outlying wards
wlio have no ebnrohes, no Sabbath, no
moral teaching. And yet of the 205
churches that exist in the city on the
average tlioy are not half tilled, and
where they aro not half filled it is lio
eause there is nothing there that draws
or that meets the wants of the great in
dustrial populations lying around about
them. Under these circumstances what
shall we do? I am not going to make n
plea for church building, althimgh I am
glad to secohurclies going up. But the
churches are not going to educate our
population. Wo have got to have a
wandering ministry; we have gut to have
ministers who go from house to house,
as the apostles did, and that preach to
men in their sorrows, in their sicknesses.
We want missionary men and women
who will go into places of vice. I don’t
think we have half proved the power of
I ho Gospel of Jeans Christ,
The influences that men throw out to
those around about them in the world was
tho subject of Mr. Beecher's sermon, his
text being Romans, xv., 1-3. The fol
lowing passages are picked out here and
there from the discourse:—
"We sre perpetually actiug as if we
were instruments photographic. We
are throwing pictures; wo aro throwing
shadows; wo aro throwing light upon
one, ten, scores, hundreds. Every time
wo come into the presence of men
something or other happens to them,
for men are as sensitive to influence as
we are j lower ful in developing influ
ence.”
“A person whose iifo is just ns regular
as a checker board -oh ! of all the mel
ancholy singing that I ever heard was
that of a lmlltluch iu a cage that had
been taught a little operatic air- (and
Mr. Beecher showed how the bullfinch
whistled)—and thou over and over and
over again, until I wanted to wring its
neck."
“All real education brings men to
men, and wherever you see men by tbe
force of education separating themselves
from ad living above their fellow men,
you may be sure they are uneducated
and vulgar just in that degree, for the
essential spirit of evolvement toward
the good in mau is the Ohristianliki
spirit.”
“The command to be orthodox is not
to be found anywhere in the New Testa
ment. Organized beliefs lire all Very
well—among other things; lmt organiza
tion is not the sum of religion, uor even
the need of religion.”
“J don’t object to elective affinities; T
don’t object that men who are alike in
tellectually should follow together; but
they must not build up a wall between
themselves and their kind.”
"The sign that a man is a gentleman
is his consideration for those who are
not; the sign that a man is educated is
the largeness of Ids sympathy; the sign
that a man is truly refined is not that
there is a Desert of Sahara in his soul,
but that he blossoms like a prairie."
Politics in Mexico.
Mexico lias no political conventions.
Tiie newspapers do the nominating. The
papers begin a discussion of candidates
about a year previous to the Presidential
election. Next they “postulate" or
nominate eertaiu candidates. At the
head of the paper will appear, “We
postulate” so and so, naming the jour
nal's choice. Then, on election day, the
voters assemble at the polling places,
and each deposits a written ballot for
electors, who aro to constitute the Elec
toral Board of the State. This law stipu
lates that the ballot must be written,
and a table, with paper and writing uten
sils, is provided \*?side the ballot box,
and the ballot must Vie written and im
mediately deposited under the inspec
tion of the Supervisor. Sometimes tho
voters of the different parties will meet a
tew honrs previous and agree upon some
candidate, but usually each voter has
made a choice of candidates without any
pressure from party machinery.
“DICKENS’ DUTCHMAN” DEAD.
The Old Penitentiary Inmate Dim In 11l
Oil ueur I'hllndcliflilu.
Clmrlrs Langheimer, better known aa
“Dickens* Dutchman," died a few days
ago in tho Eastern Penitentiary, Phila
delphia, where he had spent tho better
part of hi life. Ho was eighty-two
years old and was buried in Potter’s
Field. Ho was first sentenced to the
penitentiary in 1810 and was released
from time to time only to be returned
for thefts.
If was not Langheimer’s long residence
in the penitentiary which gave him so
much notoriety. It was the fact of
Charles Dickens having seen and spoken
to him and written about him in his
“American Notes.”
More than thirty years ago, when the
eminent novelist visited this country, he
took occasion to go through the peniten
tiary and there savv Langheimer, who
was serving a term of five years. When
Dickens wrote his “American Notes” he
described the system of solitary confine
ment and referred to Langheimer in quite
pathetic tones. He said:
“In a cell was a German, sentenced to
five years’ imprisonment for larceny, two
of which hud just expired. With colors
extracted from yarn ho hud painted
every inch of the wails and ceiling quite
beautifully. Ib* had laid out a few feet
of ground behind with exquisite neatuess
and lnul made a little bed iu the center
that looked, hy-thc-bye, like a grave.
Tho taste and ingenuity he had displayed
in everything was most extraordinary,
and yet a more dejected, heart-broken
wretched creature it would be difficult to
imagine. I never saw such n picture of
forlorn nffliction and distress of mind.
My heart bled for him, and, when the
tears ran down his cheeks and lie took
one of the visitors aside to ask, with his
trembling hands nervously clutching at
his coat to detain him, whether thero was
no hope of Ids dismal sentence Vicing
commuted, the spectacle wits too painful
to witness. I never saw or heard of any
kind of misery that impressed me moro
than the wretcbt;dues:i of tins man.”
Langheimer successfully passed through
ail the misery so pathetically pictured
by Dickens and lived to hear of the
novelist’s death.
Printing Direct from 'type.
Hoe, the printing-press builder, n
newspaper correspondent ssys, is mak
ing a strong effort to induce newspapers
to go back to the old system of printing
direct from the type iu place of stereo,
typing newspaper form* sis is now the
the custom. Hoe is now building a
prc*s h r a Now York*evening paper
which, he says, will run off 30,000 copies
an hour from the type direct. He does
not, however, want to make a contract
to furnish a press to do this amount of
work. If he could make a machine
capable of that speed under the old type
system, he would unquestionably do a
good thing for himself and for the
papers. It is quite certain that some
improvement ought to be made on tho
stereotyping system. It eats up a lot of
time that is very valuable, f*>r the reason
that it comes between the moment when
the news is ready and the instant when
press-work begins - at a period, in fact,
wlii’n every moment of delay costa a lot
of money. Any scheme to get over the
half-hour or so that is spent in stereo
typing will lx> of immense advantage,
particularly to nfternoon papers, where
there is rivalry as to which shall get tho
news out a few minutes abend of tho
others. It is nil nonsense to say that
stereotyping makes any practical saving
of typo. Where there are three or four
editions packed off in a great rush a
a dress of type will not hist more than a
year with any stereotyping apparatus
1 oversaw, and it wouldliepretty heavy
presawork which wore out type faster
tlnin that.
Statistics or Illiteracy. #
Mr. Blair, of New Hampshire, ad
dressed the United States Senate on the
bill to aid iu the establishment and tem
porary support of common schools. Id
the course of his remarks he said:
More than one-ninth of the citizens of
tin l United States are unable to read or
write. According to the census of 1880,
out of the 50,000,000 of population iu
the United States there were 9.82 per
cent, who could not read and 12. M per
cent, who could not write. The propor
tion of white people who could not write
wns 6 96 per cent, and of colored 47.70
per cent. The number of persons of
school age was 15,527,332, while the
number enrolled was only 9,781,521, and
even of that number the actual average
attendance was only 5,805,312. That is
to say, the average attendance was about
two thirds of tlie enrollment, or about
one-third of the number that should at
tend. In thirty-four cities of the Union
Fifty to eighty-two per cent, of the chil
dren were not enrolled at all—that is,
would never know how to read or write.
\i Unlucky Dog
Bill Nve, the funny writer, is ft
lucky and an unlucky dog. He
picked up a bit of paper in
the street on which was inscribed
2,684. He bought a ticket iu a lottery
of the same number and drew $20,000.
This he invested iu a gold miuc, and at
the end of six months he took the poor
debtor’s oath. He then went to Cape
May, and while walking on the beach
he discovered a young lady sinking for
the third time. He rescued her and re
ceived SI,OOO from her rich father. That
night he fought the tiger and had to
borrow a quarter to get a breakfast. He
tbeu took a job to put up a telephone
wire, and while doing so hit upon an
idea which he sold to the company for
£5,000. He spent £3,000 in solving the
worthlessness of anew electric light.
He concluded for the first time in his
life that he would salt the balance down
in good real estate, so he bought a farm
and to work. He resolved to dig a
well, nud the third day he struck a vein
of coal, and has !>een offered $50,000 for
one-half of ULs farm. Such is life.
Baby’s Mother.
Oh, little baby, all pink, and
wrinkled, and ugly im you are in men’s
eyes, how sweet you are to your mother 1
Heaven known why, and Heaven only—
I say it reverently—Heaven that sent
you. A woman who has never loved a
baby is not half a woman. She docs not
know what love can be. In every other
phase of love there is some selfishness.
In that which we feel for our baby there
can lx> none. What does it bring to
a mother, this morsel of humanity, but
pain, and fear, and weakness, depriva
tion of pleasure, and vigils many and
long ? Yet the love she has for it pays
for all. It is a passion—though it has
never been called so—tho strangest,
sweetest, purest passion possible.
When a lover’s lips touch hers a
girl looks fair and bright, and as beauti
ful as she ever will in life, so that those
who see her envy and admire; yet her emo
tions may then lie merely an equal mix
ture of love and vanity. When a mother
kisses her first babe she is often pale and
far from beautiful, but never in her life lias
such a depth of tenderness dwelt in her
soul; never was she so near perfection;
for all that we women have of good and
true in our hearts has its base in mother
love. Jt is from this that our power to
care for our households, to do our duty
as daughters, sisters, and wives, must
principally spring. The woman simply
capable of romantic emotion may have
lovers by the score, but is never true to
one. an<l is always selfish to the heart’s
core, grasping all she can, and giving
nothing. The woman with strong
mother-love in their souls give that
though in less degree than to their babes
—to all they love; and ho is home built
as the nest by the mother-bird
Lotteries and Urc'sents.
Eco/7 sensible person should recog
nize the fact, when anything is offered
for sale, no matter w hat it may be- a
newspaper, book, medicines, pianos or
jack knives—for a certain sum of money,
arid gifts nre offered as a bonus or in
ducement to purchase, that the thing
offered is not worth the money naked for
it This conclusion cannot be avoided
if one will only think for a moment As
this is not a regulur business transaction,
the purchaser of anything so offered can
not be surprised if he sh on Id find out
that he has been deceived and has been
led into a trap by means of a bait. If
there it; any chance about the distribu
tion of these gifts it becomes a lottery,
and is simply garni ding. The laws against
lotteries are now properly liecoming
very strict, and so far m morality is con
cerned tho buyer of a chance is equally
blamabhi as the offerer of it. Farm rs
are especially sought by persons who
deal iu those practices, as they are be
lieved to Ik* more than nsnslly foolish
or dishonest. It is to be hoped that they
will resent this unjust imputation by
letting such business severely alone.—

Many <-f the hair dressings of the d.av are
excellent, but the great mam <>f the *tuffssold
for prom--ting the growth and bringing bark
the original color, ore men* humbug*, while
not a few are pernh ion* in their rffi-ot* upon
Ihe scalp and fiair. Tho falling out of the hair,
the accumulations of dandruff, and the pre
mature change in color are all evidences of a
dis. condition of the scalp and the glands
which nourish the hair. To arrest these causes
the artir le used must j> wsces medical as well
a* chemical virtues, and the change must la*
gin under the sculp t<> la? of permanent nnd
last in;; benefit. iVtroleum oil is the article
which L made to work such extraordinary
results: but it is a ft*-r the beet refined article
has U*on chemically tn*ated, and completely
deodoriz'd, that it is in proper condition for
the toi!. t and receive* the name of Carboline.
It was m far-off Russia that the effects of |*v
troleum u j ton the hair were first oljserved; a
government officer having noticed that a par
tiaii v kild headed servant of his. when trim
ming the lamps, had' a habit of wiping his
oil-U'siuonml hands in his scanty locks, and
the result was, iu a few months, a much finer
head of lht !>. glossy hair than he ever hud
Irf-fnro The oil wns tried on horses and cattle
that had 1-st their hair from cattle plague.and
the results were marvelous. The manes and
tuiL of hors**, which had fallen out, were
completely restored in a few weeks. These*
cxjieriments wen* heralded to the world, but
no one in civilized society could tolerate The
us** of refined j-t mleum as a dressing for tho
hair. But tho -kill of one of our chemists has
overcome the difficulty, and he has succeeded
in jx rfe tmg Carboline,rendering it os dainty
as the famous can do cologne. Experiments
on the human hair and skin were attended
with the ni:*st astonishing results. A few ap
plications, where the hair was thin and falling,
gave remarkable tone nnd vigor to the scalp
and the hair. Every particle of dandruff disiq>-
pearson the first or second dressing, all cuta

t<* j* net rate to tie* root of the hair at onco. It
is well known that tho most )x*nutiful color*
nre made from petroleum, nnd by some mys
terious operation of nature the use of this arti
cle gradually imparts a beautiful light brown
color to the nair. which by continued usedeejs
ens to black. The color remains permanent,
and the change is so gradual that the most
intimate friends can scarcely detect its pro
gress. In a word, it is the most wonderful
discovery of the age, nnd well calculated to
make the prematurely bald and gray rejoi<**.
