Az regards the use of rum, the tact
is.a very large proportion of men
are net capable of governing them
selves at all. They drink moders
ately until the infernal rum . thirst
is fixed upon thew, and then they
become fts maost survile slaves.
There is nothing this side ot the
torments of hell which can ap
proach the torture this thirst in
flict® upon its vietim. To satisfy
its cravings men lied, robbed, and
‘murdered. When a mau is fully
lunder its domivation he would
ldrink, were rum place before him,
'if he knew that the next moment
| his soul would be required of him.
Once under its full control, the vie
tim drinks and drinks until he is
beggared, and unfit for work or
buriness; until his wife and tamily
become objects of chafity, and fin
‘ally the grave closes over his bloat

WHY MAIDS WILL WED
& v \
A good wife rose from her bed one ‘
morn i
And thought with pervous
dread, ‘
Ot piles on piles of clothes to be
washed |
And the dozen of mouths to be
fed |
“Ther’s the meale to get for the
men in the field, |
Aud the chrildren to fix away to
gchool, »
And all the milk to be skimmed and
churned—
And all to be done thiz day.”
It had rain:d in the vight and all
the wood
Was wet asit could be,
There wer: puddings and pies to
bhake
Anc aloaf of cake for ten;
And the day was hot, and her ach
ing head
Throbbed wearily as she said:
“It maideas but knew what good
wives know
They'd not haste to wed.”
‘‘Annie, what do you think I
told Ned Brown.”
Called the tarmer from the well—
Aund a flush evept up to his bronz
ed brow
And his eves halt bashfully fell.
“It was this.” And coming
near he smiled
“It wes this: That you are the
best
And the dearest wire in town.'
“The farmer went hack to the
field.
And the wife, in a smiling, absent
way,
Sang suatches of tender little
sOUZS
She'd not sung in many a day.
And the pain in her head was
gone aud her clothes
Were as white as the foam of the
sea,
And her butter as sweet and golden
as it could be
The night came down--
The good wife sn:iled to herself as
she said:
““ “Tis so sweet to labor for those
we love
It is not strange that maids will
wed.”

BEAUTIFUL THOUGHT
THE YOUNG MAN-—-DEATH
—THE THREE MESSEN-.
GERS.
One evening, says the allegory,
a voung man was sittinz in his lit
tle cottage, talking with his wife
as to their tuture. He was peor
48 t» money, but had the wealth of
a good and strong eounstitution, and
willing handsto work. He was
blest with a 2 gond mind, and full
of energy and industry. Sittirg
in his iap, was hig little #on, wto
had not numberved his first twelve
months. The young mother was
busy with her needle. Just then
a knock was heard at the tront
door, and a cordial aud free invita
tion was given to come in, A
neighbor, thought the young
couple. But much to their alarm
in walked Death. Fixing his eyes
upon the young man, he said, in
an authorititive manner: Young
man, I have come for you and
shall make you a citizen of my si
lent kingdom.”
‘Have mercy!” exclaimed the
young man. ‘You have mistaken
the house, and certainly must
have come for my old and rich
neighbor, whom you have permit--
ted to journey on life’s course, over
his three-score years and ten, Go,
take him, and spare me;’
‘I meke no mistakes’ I came for
you. I respect neither age, cir
cumstances nor conditions. Come
go!’
Said the young man, in terror
of despair:
‘Let me reason with you! Let
me plead my case! Hear my peti
tion for a longer life.
Death said:
‘Speak on, and let me hear your
case. Ido sometimes relent, for a
season, at least. .
Baid the young man:
‘ln the first place, I think you
huve come too soon for me. I have
Just started life; and there you see
my young wife and here in my lap
our little habe. Would you make
her & widow so soon, and my child
tatherless! Who will take care of
them it you take me away? Be.
sides, here is my little home I have
Jjust bought; my prospects in life
are fair and inviting; would you
blight them all in a moment? I
am young, &8 you see, str mg and
healthy, aud I thought I had good
many yedrs yet ahead of me; are
my hopes to thus soon be blasted?
Let me live to mature my plans,
and sea my boy grow up to & man's
state o that he will be able to take
care of his mother, and the last,
but not least reason I have is this:
I have not made that preparation
I should bave made for #0 impor
tant & journey as vou would send
me on. I have neglected my soul’s
interest, in looking at, and thinks
ingot my temporal. I am not
prepared for you, 00, Death!
Neither to meet my Creator.’
Death arose from h's seat and
gaid:
‘Young man, you have stated
your case and condition fairly and
with good reason; I will leave this
time without you: but mark me
well I will return at some future
day, but will hear no reasons- ~you
must then go But before I come
sgain, I will send you three wes
gengers, cach will tell you I am
coming—taka that you heed them.’
Iwilll T will’ exclaimed the
young man, ‘and thank you for
your kindvess in going, and .your
generation in sending me notice.’
Time rolled on. The young |
man grew-to middle age, aud in 1
time old age came upon him. His
life had been a success so tar as to
the accumulation of wealth and in
comfort and luxuries, Affluence,
children and grand-children had
blessed his declining years,
One pleasant evening, sitting at
his ease and comfort in his elegant
horae, with a little grand son play
ing about him he heard a riug at
the door veil. Too old, and stiff
to go to the door, he called the vis
itor to come in, In stepped
Death. % :
“What!’ exclaimed the old man,
‘come 80 soon?
‘Yes,” answered Death whe eye
ing his old acquaintance, ad
ded. ‘I have come for you, as 1
promised.”
‘When did yousend your me -
sengers, for I have not the fanti st
recollection of their coming?” re.
joined the old man.
‘I sent them answered Death;
‘“and if they came quietly and
gently reminded you in looks and
by touches, you should have heed
ed their silent but yet expressive
admonitions.”
“Explain yoursel!,” said the old
man ; for I do not understaud. You
talk in riddles or fables.”
“Easily - enough done,” said
Death.
“When I first came, you were a
young mao; your hair was black as
raving's wing—now it is gray, and
your locks are thinned Ly age,
Thal was my first messenger, Those
eyes of yours were bright and un
dimiroed by age; now Isee you use
glasses to aid your failing sight,
That was my second messenger,
That form of yours was stout,
strong aud unbent by years ; now
you totter as you walk and lesn
upon your cane for support. That
was my third messenger. Your
babe, whom I saw in your lap, has
grown to man’s estate, and ie him
self a father, and your grand chil
dren remind you that your years
have not been few.”
“‘Bul hear me ” said the old man,
““what you have said is very true ;
but my cares and bueiness affairs
bave been so great that I have
neglected to make preparations for
80 important and serious a jour
ney. Ihave made no preparation
to mect you, O Death, though I
knew you were coming at some
futnre time, but not so soon. I am
not prepared to meet my Creator
and judge just now. Give me &
me little more time- —just a few
year<more, will yon not "
“No answered Death; “if you
have failed to attend to so great a
matter tor 5o long a time, the fault
is yours, not mine. I warned you
but you heeded not; you must now
go, prepared or unprepared, aud
the consequencesbe npon your own
immortal soul. come, and laying
his cold hand wpen the old man his
soul departed.
Reader, how are you _acting in
this matter? Have you seen or
felt the touches of any of the mes
sengers?

it was custom at these receptions

his great speech in Boston, The
gifted speaker said:
“I beg that you will bring your

the bible lesson he was going to

finding the place, glued together

The next morning he read on the

[Loud and contivued laughter.]
He read it again, verifiad it, and
‘then said; ‘My frienda, this is the
