HURRA B FOR TBS MAN woo FATS!
There an men of brain* who count their gains
By the million dollars or more;
They buy end sell, and really do well
On the money of the poor.
They manage to get qnito deep la debt
By various crooked ways;
And so we eay that the man to-day
Is thc honest man who pays.
When in the town he never sneaks down
Some alley or way-back street;
With head erect he will never deflect,
But boldly each man meet.
Re counts the cost ttefore he ie lost
In debt'* mysterious maze,
And he never buys In manner unwise
Bnt calls for his bill, and pays.
There's a certain air of debonair
In the man who buy* for cash;
He is not sfraid of being lx<trayed
By a Jack-leg shyster'* dash.
What he eay* to you be will certainly do.
If it's cash or thirty day*;
And when he goe* ont the olerk* will shout
Hurrah for the man who pays I

A Lucky Hit.
Hiram Veazie was * plain, good-
hearted, honest farmer's lroy, whose
parents lived on the farm where his
grandfather was boro, not half a doz n
miles from Augusta, Me. With a good
common school education, and a natural j
aptitude, Hiram was considered at the
age of twenty to be a very promising
young man, and was oertainly of groat
servioe to his father upon the farm. Old
Mr. Veazie was oomfortably situated as
to pecuuiary moans; first, because his
wants were few, and secondly, because
his land very nearly supplied them all.
But when Hiram asked hia father to
advauoe him some amall amount with
whioh to commence bnaiueaa, the good
old man frankly acknowledged hia ina
bility, and rather wondered that his son
oonhl not content himself on the farm,
aa bis father and grandfather had done
before him.
The truth waa, that Hiram had from
boyhood, and during all hia school honra,
been the intimate friend and companion
of pretty Lucy White, the aquixe’a
daughter, and to is childish friendship
had ripened with yean into love.
Lney’a father understood the poaition of
affairs perfectly between the young
people, bnt never interfered, until one
day when Hiram took the old gentleman
one aide, and asked him for Luoy a* hia
wife. Old Squire White, as he waa
universally called, replied kindly, bnt
firmly, that Hiram mnst first acquire
some trade, and means enough to sup
port Lacy, before he could give hia con
sent to such an arrangement. The
future looked blauk to Hiram, therefore,
for he was but a poor farmer’s boy.
Luoy was a gentle and lovely girl of
19, as intelligent as she waa pretty ; she
loved Hiram sincerely, bnt she waa too
aensible to sit down with him and pine
over the situation of affairs. She waa a
practical Yankee girl, and her advice to
Hiram waa sound and loving.
“Go," she said, “to Boston or New
York. You aro active, good-looking,
intelligent and industrious—the very
characteristics that command place, I
should say, in a large city, and aee if
yon do not find the meanB of earning
such wages as shall help you to lay by
something. I, too, will be industrious,
in the meantime, and what little I can
save shall go to make up the necessary
sum for the .purchase of a snug little
home for us."
Hiram kissed his sweet little school
mate, aud promising her that she would
never for one hour be out of hia mind,
soon gathered a small sum of money to
gether, and with a kind farewell and the
blessing of his old father and mother, he
took the cars for Boston. It waa his
first visit to a large city, and at the out
set he was almost bewildered; bnt, seek
ing economical lodgings, ho began at
once to look about himself for employ
ment. This he found it hard to obtain,
bnt he was daily glowing more and
more conversant with city life and ways,
and lie wrote every few days to Lucy a
digest of his observations and fortunes.
A fortnight or three weeks in Boston
made fearful inroads into his slcuder
purse, nnd at the suggestion of some new
iicipiaintauoe lie determined to go In
New York.
Here lie passed some two weeks with
various adventures, hut without finding
mu hour of paying occupation. He wan
dered everywhere, oliservingaud search
ing ont places, inquiring freely of all,
nntil, at the end of the third week, he
had but a single dollar left in his pocket,
aud felt for the first time nearly dis-
| heartened. In this mood he strolled
through one of the uptown cross streets
above Union Park, nnd found liis atten
tion attracted by the operation of a
steam sawmill, which he entered and
quietly watch'd the business of. He
,aw a small but elVcient eugiuc driving
(..in led i\v torn men, there
Stood at a desk 4«d by owe evidently
the manager of the establishment.
Hiram fall g*atrona interest in what
be saw; (here were large piles ot excel
lent lumber in the building, an article
he woe familiar with from ehildhood;
and he watched the prooeea of sawing it
up, carefully observed to what purpose
the wood was put, aud saw a couple of
hands in s further part of the shop en
gaged in dovetailing the pieees together,
and forming the lumber into boxee of
various sizes. He consumed so much
time, aud waa so minute in his obser
vation, that at last the proprietor came np
to him and addressed him pleasantly:
“You seem to lie quite Interested) ’’
lie remarked to Hiram.
“Yes. I have seen a great deal of turn-
Iter in my day, and I was calculating how
mtioh yon probably need np in this
way. ”
“We use a good many thousand feet
avorv week."
“Ho I should thiuk, aud best number
ones, too."
“Yes, we require the very best stook,
aud lumlier is ‘np’ now.”
“How much do yon pay T”
“Twenty-four dollars a thousand, all
clear and assorted."
“What do yon do with all these
l>oxes ?" continued Hiram.
"Oh, we oan sell them quioker than
we oeu make them, for packing soap,
chemicals, etc.”
“Bather heavy for that purpose, I
should say," added Hiram.
“Well, they are rather heavy, bnt we
oau’t get boards sawed any different;
they are down to the lowest gauge of
the lumber mills."
Hiram looked thoughtful, bandied the
boxes, examined the saws, talked good
common sense, business style, to the
man, ami at lost ha mid, half-aerioosly,
half in jest:
“Yon don’t wont a partner, do yon ?"
“Why, no, not exactly; though if I
bud one who would pnt in a couple of
thousand dollars, and would take hold
heartily himself, I wouldn’t mind shar
ing thc thing with him, aud throwing in
the machinery."
“I haven’t got any mummy," said
Hiram; “bnt I will give yon an idea
about this matter, and will take hold aud
give my time, in a way that I think it
will lie worth as muoh as the sum you
name, in s short time, provided you will
give me half the business."
"I like the wsyyoa talk,” mid the
man, honestly; “bnt this is an odd
proposition !"
“You say you pay twenty-four dollars
a thousand for the boards ?’’
“Yes."
“Supposing I bring them down t><
twelve at once, and make neater and bet
ter Vioxes for your purpose ?"
“If yon can do that I will share with
yon at once, for my fortune wonl 1 be
made.”
“Will you give me a chance to try
the thing after my own fancy, for one
day, say, commencing to-morrow morn
ing ?’’
“Yes," said the man, after a moment’s
hesitation. “lean see no harm, though
I am to be away to-morrow forenoon."
After a little longer talk, and a care
ful understanding that there should be
no experiment tried that should risk the
machinery, Mr. Hurd, the tiox-maker,
gave orders to his people that Mr. Yeazie
was to lie obeyed on the following fore
noon, the same as though he were him
self to give the orders, and that he
should return at noon.
Hiram at once took off his coat,
measured one of the saws and asked if
it was the largest; he was told that it
was. This he was at first sorry for, but
still, carefully taking his measures upon
a piece of pajier, ho soon disappeared.
He remembered a hardware store, not
far distant, which lie hod passed that
very afternoon; to this he repaired, and
selected a circular saw, t wice as Isrge as
any that Mr. Hurd had, and of a differ
ent make in the teeth; he also gut some
braces and bolts of a size aud style which
lie appeared to understand, and telling
the storekeeper that he wanted them for
Mr. Hurd iu the next street, he found
no difficulty in getting them on credit.
With matters thus arranged, lie re
turned to his lioarding-pluce and studied
in his own mind as to how he would
carry out tne plan be had conceived.
It was about twelve o’clock, noon, on
the following day, when Mr. Hurd re
turned to his shop, where he fouud
Hiram Veazie in his shirt sleeves, aud
with a pair of “overalls" on, at work be
fore a large splitting saw which he had
erected upon one of the benches, and to
which he hod applied the steam power.
He was splitting the boards, which were
fully thick enough to admit of it, and
thus making the boards produce just
twice as many boxes as heretofore, with
an equal amount of labor, since those
who finished them up into boxes after
they were sawed, could work euungU
(outer with the tWfiiw lumber to make
up for tlto oooupottou «»( oue hand to
tend the splitting saw.
Mr. Bard looked on with astonish
ment ; already were a eoore of boxee
end more niaaufaotared of Ute new
thioknees, end they wen actually more
valuable, ee the thtohacm woe ample for
ell purposes of strength, end the weight
wee rednrnd one-half. He was also de
lighted »t hie new soquaintanoe, who
took hold of the work so handily, end
above ell felt that he had at ouoe giveu
him an idea worth half his business and
more. Mr. Hurd eras an holiest aud
faithful r in, end unhesitatingly kept hia
promise. Installing Hiram in the bnai-
we with one half tha profits.
The raider may imagine the letter
whioh Hirsm wrote to hie faithful Lucy,
end how the encouraged him in return;
end how the business proved exceedingly
prospermia, and how it waa enlarged,
and Hirelo fouud himself at the end of
n twelvemonth worth some two tliouaand
dollars ; and how Bqaite White pressed
hia hsud' warmly wheu he returned to
eek for Lucy, and (old him to “lake
her," sod how Lucy blushing laid her
fair che*A, bathed with happy mars,
upon bite shoulder; and her kind old
mother said flint she hail but one re-
and that was to port with Luoy,
“who wpuld now go away to live in
York Stele. ”
But ait this was so, and Luoy aud
Himrn wUr« married, aud their friends
declared that Heaven made the match,
and worked a miracle for Hiram Yeasie,
who woe so good, and industrious and
geui‘M ms spirited. But these ere not
the deyf of miracles, and the reader
knows very well that It waa all brought
sliout by the moat natural agencies.
Three years only have passed siuoe

Domestic Recipes.
Two small tart npples aro a toothsome
addition to the stuffing of a roast duck
or goose.
Apple fritters make a nioe entree to be
served with roast dnok.
One of the wisest precautions to take
when yon are baking is to have the oven
perfectly clean, and yet it is one that is
often neglected, and many an otherwise
fault lees dish has been spoiled by tho
sifting of ashea from the upper grate in
the oven.
Nice rolls ore mode of two teooups of
sweet milk, two eggs, three and a half
scant caps of flour, sifted, of course, a
good pinch of salt. Bake in very hot
gem pans, in a quick oven.
This is a good dish : fry one pound
of veal in hot lard, having first out it in
strips about two inches wide, snd three
or four long ; when nearly done, add a
tittle butter and half a pint of oysters
ohop;>ed or cat iu small pieces; season
with popper and salt; serve hot with or
without toaHt.
If a goose that in to be roasted is al
lowed to lie in a deep pan with cold
water over it, in whioh a tablespoonfnl
of soda ia dissolved, all the oil can be
scraped out of the skin, and the coarse
flavor which is greatly objected to may
lie entirely removed. The goose must
first be perfectly cleaned by rinsing
with dear cold water.
Cut cold meat as for hash; fill a deep
dish with boiled macaroni, pour over any
gravy yon may have, on the top of that
place the meat, cover it with tomatoes,
over which sprinkle breadcrumbs, with
a little butter; bake until nicely
browned.

TIIE LEPER GIRL.

laki-rt tram Her l.avrr.
A Honolulu letter to the Chicago
Sinra says : “Aiming the last to come
on shore was a half-wlihe girl, whose
history I promised iu thc first paper.
Hhe was | lie child of a native woman,
whose hither was s chief of Kaitla, by
the owner and msstcr of a Yankee
ahniing barque. When the whaling
skipper, liecomiug rich, retired from
business aud settled in the islands at
Hilo, he brought Ills native wife to thc
horn - he had made, and set to work to
make a Christum of her; you may
readily fancy that Ids methods were
crude, like Ids oithodoxy, and he in
dulged iu rum snd spiritual lessous iu
iiuequal pro|>ortious, punctuating hia
teachings in one and his indulgence in
tho other with wife-lieatings to snob an*
extent that the simple-minded woman
thought it well to die. This she did, and
s jury, who were considering the re
sponsible share (hat the captain had in
her demise, found themselves deprived
of bii.v painful duty by the suicide of the
captain by the sailor-like method of a
rope. The girl Iiveil for a time under
the charge of s Presbyterian missionary,
and lieosme a teacher in the school. Bba
was, snd ia yet, a Iteniitiful creature, and
a young English engiueer, engaged at
one of the big sugar plantations, fell in
love with her. He was s flue young fel
low, and the match was approved by all
who had tho interests of the two at
heart, wheu oue day there ap|*cared on
the face of the girl a blazing red spot,
whioh spread from tho oheek to the ear,
and then develop'd into tuhcrcules over
the neck—snd they said she was a leper.
This happened iu June. The girl de
clared she was not, bnt Ilia inexorable
law forced her away to Honolulu. Mean
while she declared she was not afflicted,
snd insisted ou having her lover believe
she was teni|N>rariIy iu Honoluln visiting
snd making sonic purchases, and so on,
preparatory to tlm wedding set for Oo-
tolier. But there came a time when she
could no longer deceive herself snd no
iai# woultt uuderoeive him. On* day he
esme to Honolulu on bnsineas. It waa
the day appointed for the soiling of the
lepers, snd her oose rapidly advancing,
the, with the rest, was lteiug led to the
steamer when her lover saw her. One
wild scream from her, and he liod
dashed at the guards in a vain effort to
resoue her. In a few minutes be is
dragged away by the police, snd she, in
s fainting condition, is carried to (he
vessel. All night this girl lay npon her
breast sobbing, and now, looking m wild
as night, she springs ashore and casts a
look aroiiud. Then she sees the priest
standing there, and falling zt hia feet,
clasps his knees aud cries for help,
“You are good," she says. “I love
him so. He is in prison. I shan’t see
him agaiu. Let him come to mo. Fie
will come. We love each other. I have
given him everything, but lie does not
love me less lieoauno f aui a leper."
But the priest strove only to raise her.
Then hIic called out; “Oh, Ood ! if this
be indeed Thy priest, show me that Thou
art kind and move his heart."
I turned away, Imt 1 saw the old
priest's cheeks were wet with tears, and
that lie held iu his arms the fuinting
form of oue whoso greatest grief was not
alone In her leprosy.
Woman’s l<ot in India.
Mrs. L. C. Griffin, who has been for
years a missionary in Hindoston, re
cently returned to America to reeup-
crate. To a reporter for the St Paul
Pioneer Preen she described woman’s
life iu India. She saya: “The govern
ment ot the house of the Brahmin is
strictly iu the hands of the man; of the
father during the yonth of the family,
and of the eldest son after he marries.
The sou always takes his wife home to
the puternal roof, and as the sons marry
additions are built to the house until it
often liecomos a village in itself. In this
place the women are imprisoned—lit
erally buried alive. From the day of
their marriage, whioh is at a very early
uge, they never see more of the outer
world tliau the narrow expanse of sty and
cloinl that looks down upon them be
tween tho walls of their prison home.
No men ure allowed to enter the house
but the members of the family and the
priest, except on very rare occasions,
and then unseen by the women. Mar
ried at ten years—for spinsterhood is
abominable— mother* at twelve, they
are laded and old at the beginning of
their fifth lustrum. They die of sheer
old age at about thirty.”

the servioe began. The sexton followed
him up, sod tapping him on the shoul
