Housework. Washing, mopping, I taking, churning; Next day ironing must he done, And the busy housewife fimlcth Little rest till set of sun. 'i hen the knitting and the sewing D ith tlic buttonhole* to make ; Gh. the patching ami the darning. How they make our lingers ache. Hut of all the varied duties That wc busy housewives find, 1 do think that washing dishca Is the most provoking kind. B hy, the times they must he handled, O’er and o’er, day after day. Almost makes one wish the china Were in hits for children’s p’ay. Now, don't tell ine 1 am wicked— f know that as well as you ; Hut somehow, when I am weary, Dishes make me feel so blue. And the only cure I’ve found yet Is a paper or a book, When my family are settled Each in his own cosy nook. I know well that very many Have obtained the needed grace ; With a patient, cheerful spirit, All life’s petty ills to face. Oh, that 1 were of that number ! Then, with heart for any fate, I might, with cheerful spirit, *' Learn to labor and to wait.” —Our Home Journal. Recognition in Heaven. Mil. IIATFIKLD ON THU ItEUNION OF FIIIENDS AFTER TIIE RESURRECTION. Rev. Mr. IlatfieKl spoke at tlio Washing ton Square Methodist Episcopal Church of the “ Recognition of Friends Beyond the Grave.”. Shall we meet again? he said, is the question which has suggested itself at every deathbed and has supplied a hope to allay the pain of every parting. That beyond the grave there will be a reunion of those wc loved on earth, that we will bo able to recog nize them and indulge for them an affection far more tender and elevated than that we bear them hero—these have always been sweet and consoling reflections for the Christian to cherish. It seems but natural, too, that when we are inducted into that new life where all is happiness, those who have moved around us here and with whom our fondest associa tions have been formed should there rejoin us and Increase the measure of our joy by their presence. The reunion of a family should be ono of the greatest assurances of future happiness. Reason itself teaches this. But let us take revolution, always to be pre ferred to reason, and there we find the same suggestion made, tho same hope extended. When David wept over his child yet rejoiced when lie died, he explained his actions by saying that lie was to rejoin his child again. It was the thought that he was to mect°him in another and more beautiful world that fill ed him with rapture. llis mind had been turned by the child’s death from the contem plation of the sorrows and ills of life to the glorios of tho hereafter which he saw opening f o both. This thought long after made an ’’cr write : “ I have heard you say we will a. our friends in heaven. If that be so 1 led et my boy again.” In the Scriptures hall me heavenly feast is spoken of, the dierc the * < i ic quests in meeting 13 describ lappinoss of t ’j t so it - they were stran d. Why snou u M)rG likely for them to ; ers? How much u- • nr a i n the joy of Paul je reunited ft’.cm t before the throne Is spoken of at presenting connected hv hose with whom he had been connected by pastoral ofllccs and kindly coim. nnmn ; and that should be tho hope of every and Sunday-school teacher that he shall one day meet thoso whom he has brought to the knowl edge of the if hi!*: Nor is this belief conlnk dto believers in the Bible. It is common to humanity. v lccro cried out: “ Oh, happy day when I shall join the spirits and meet my dear Cato, ray most valued son.” Long before the meeting of Ulysses and his mother was described— Tliricc to my arms I tried the shade to bind. Then there was that beautiful although heathen belief that a messenger bird winged its way between tho spirit land and this to bear the ghostly greetings of its tenants to us with tidings of reunion. This universal sentiment of humanity goes far to confirm the Christian belief that in the hereafter we will call the lost dead back to us. A Glance Back One Hundred Years. One hundred years ago not a pound of coal nor a cubic foot of illuminating gas had been burnt in the country. No iron stoves were used and no contrivances for economizing heat were employed until Dr. Franklin in vented the iron-framed Ure-placc, which still bears his name. All the cooking and warm ing in town, as well as in the country, was done by the aid of a fire kindled on the brick hearth or in the brick ovens. Pino knots or tallow candles furnished the light for the long winter nights and sanded floors supplied the place of rugs and carpets. The water used for household purposes was drawn from deep wells with creaking sweeps. No form of pump was used in this country, so far as we can learn, until after the commencement of the present century. There were no friction matches in those days, by the aid of which a fire could be easily kindled, and if the fire went out upon the hearth over night and the tinder was damp, so that the spark would not catch, the alternative remained of wading through the snow a mile or so to borrow a brand of a neighbor. Only one room in any house wa9 warm, unless some member of the family was ill; in all the rest the temperature was at zero during many nights. How Ho Found He Had a Trotter. “ Stranger,” said the stage driver, “ this was how I found out her speed : I was driv ing along tt c railroad track just as a big load of hotel furniture started. The freight car wouldn’t hold it all, but they managed to squeeze everything in except a long bar mirror, which they tied to the side of the car. The mare saw her reflection in the glass, and thought it was another horse spurting for the lead. You couldn’t haye held her back with a steam windlass. She just laid back her ears aud snorted along like a twenty inch shell. The passengers all began to get ex cited. They rushed out on the platforms and began to make bet 9. The conductor stood upon a seat and began to sell pools. The engineer pulled the throttle valve wide open, and tore along at ninety-five milc9 an hour. Soon the mare was abreast of the cow-catcher. At San Bruno we had half a mile the lead. Near the Six-mile House the train was so much ahead of time that it fell through an open draw and everlastingly smashed up— -72 killed and 109 wounded. It was pretty rough on the passengers, hut then we dis tanced the train, bet ycr life. Aboat a month after I sold that maro to her present owner for SOO,OOO.” —AY to Or\‘‘ini' Picuyunv. Religion in the Pocket. HY S. C. M’DAMEL. There are three places where ever}’ body ought to have religion. In the head, in the heart and in the pocket. I once knew a man who suffered a great deal with headache and a neighbor recommended bathing the forehead with brandy as a remedy, but the afflicted man declared that lie could never test the remedy, for, after repeated trials, he was never able to get the brandy above his mouth. Religion in the head is very common, and religion in the heart is professed by church members but large numbers never get it down as low :i3 the pocket. A man once lived in a Georgia town in rented houses, who always moved when his landlord pressed him for rent, saying very indignantly as he would leave that in- would live in no man’s house who required him to pay rent. And there are not a few members of the various religious denominations in this country who would move out if required to pay for religious privileges. —M tho did. ——— l ■ jratasew iarr m i niBHHMnaBBBvex .--tin ■■■■!!— Coffins!
