IN MEMORIAM
Of mv dear sister, Mattie S. Pye
Woodall, who and parted this life, 10th of
September, 18S0.
D 'ar sister, thou art gone in thy prime
aud thy bloom,
In the spring of thy life down to silence
aud gloom;
From tho midst of thy kindred, compan
ions and friends,
From the pleasures of life, with its hopes
and its ends.
Thy husband's mmsion is lonely and
drear;
The stir that shone brightest will no
more appear;
The transcendent light of the household is
gone.
Its lustre extinguished, forever with,
drawn.
Thou .Wvgone from the side of thy hus
band to soon;
lie mourner,h thy absence in sorrow and
gloom;
And uow who uiay tell the full depth of
that woo,
\N hich none like thy husband in sorrow
can know ?
Thy husband and parents thou lov'at so
well
Are left hero on earth to mourn ami to
weep;
While over tho liver thou hast gotio to
dwell;
And tiler** have a rich harvest of deeds to
reap.
Thy brothers and sisters will miss thee so
m nc'a
Wlnlo they arc voyaging over life's stor
my main;
Yet, they feel in their hearts that their
eartlhy loss
Ls thy unspeakable and eternal gain.
Yet, we'll weep not for thee, thou are
happy on high,
In yonder safe liavtm, that homo in the
sky;
Thy mission is ended, thy trials arc past.
Thy frail bark is moored on the bright
shore at last.
Sister, tliou wont mild and lovely,
Gentle as the summer breeze;
Pleasant as the air of evening,
When it fades among the trees.
V. J, P.
Pleasant Ilill, Chi.
Words of Wisdom
The body of man oppressed by
t-xeoss bears down tlio mind aud
depresses to the earth any portion
of the di vino spirit wo have been
endowed with.
How independent of money pence
of conscience is, mul how much
happiness can bo condensed in the
humblest home.
The beam of the benevolent eye
giveth value to the bounty which
the hand dispense#.
When mankind estimato the value
of truth by dollars and emits it
would be good policy to drown the
world again.
A wise man never trilics with
nature's laws or gets in 1 heir war,
but the unwise do, and their life
pays the penalty of tlioir folly.
Give expression to every noble
and generous thought. They will
vibrato down through the centuries
when >*o are dust and ashes.
A tender conscience is an estima
ble blessing; that is, conscience
not only quick to discern what is
evil, but instantly to shun if, us the
eyelid closes itself against the mote.
Those who speak always and
those who never speak are equally
unfit for friendship. A good pro
portion of the talent of listening
and speaking is the baso of social
virtues.
Cleopatra's Needle-
The Egyptian obelisk, called
Cleopatra s needle, weighing 219
1-2 tons, was set up in Central
Park, New York, January 22. This
huge monolith is covered from top
to bottom with sculptures and bier
oglyphics, some of which have
been deciphered, and others defy
the cunning of antiquarians and
Egyptologists. It was first erected
in Syeno 3500 years ago. After
wards it was removed to Alexan
dria, where it lay cu tho ground til
23 II C., when it was erected bo
fore the palaeo of tho Caesars. Is
mail Pasha, Khedive of Egypt, pre
sented it to tho United Stales as
an historical curiosity. It cost
$75,000 to bring this wonderful
‘needle' to this country and erect it
in Central Park. It is reported
that W II Vanderbilt defrayed the
expense. Tho obelisk was formally
presented to tho city February 22.
Secretary Evarts delivered tbe ad
dress.

Mr D Whiting, of ltiverside,
Cal., is enclosing 1,500 acres of land
with a stockade, and proposes im
porting one hundred pairs of Os.
triches from South Africa, worth
from 3250 to SSOO abi rd. •Ostrich
es breed at, four years of age, and
will produce four broofls a year,
c-aeh averaging twenty chicks’ At
eight months the feathers of a bird
I become worth $5, and, as it grows
| older, attain a value of over SIOO,
! I- is said that it costs no more to
I keep an ostiich than a sheep.
It is Hard to Uunderstand.
Why an endless procession of
drinkers from a public dipper
will, without exception,drink close
to the hamilo.
Why people will go into society
io get bored when they can get
bored just ns woll at home.
Why the young lady who will
eagerly chew boarding house mince
pie will carefully eschew boarding
house mince moat.
Why a woman will make ex
cuses for her bread when sheknows
it is the best she ever made, and
knows her company knows it.
Why a “young gentleman" swears
so much louder and more copiously
when stranger ladies arc within ear
sliot; or in other words.
Why the desire to make a fool
of one's self springs eternal in the
human breast.
Why we are so much angrier
against him who shows us our er
ror than him who leads us therein.
Why people will get married,
when courting is so sweet.
Why a man who claims to have
found marriage a delusion will
again embrace that delusion upon
the first convenient opportunity.
Why cold weather comes during
the season when it is least agreea
ble.
Wliy it is so much easier to §be
polite to people whom we shall
probably never see again than to
thoso whoso good opinion we have
every reason to cultivate.
Why boys should run after girls,
when there is u whole houseful ut
home.
Why Jane finds Sarah's hateful
brother so attractive, and why the
hateful brothel- of Jane finds favor
with Sarah.—Boston Transcript.
An Englishman, by finding one
very superior head of wheat find

Roberts, of Dover, for four years

seed, and had a wonderful fine crop
of sound potatoes, while those of
his neighbors rotted badly. Again,
ho selected the very poorest for
seed four years, and his miserable
crop all rotted.
Senator lleck is reported as hav
ing said in a recent interview that,

Vanderbilt—can sit down and, in a
five minutes' chat, fix a tax of S2OO,
000,000 upon the commerce of this
country by raising freight two cents
a bushel,and do it according to law.
The Rural New Yorker says that
“the introduction of pure Merino
sheep into Texas, Colorado ana
New Mexico has doubled tho valuo
of the fl >cks there, for no flock
master can now aff rd to grow
native wool when oue cross of Me
rino not onlp doubles the weight ot
the fleece, but doubles the value of
the staj le.
The three per cent funding rate
developed unexpected strength
in tho s- nate. Senator Brown of
Georgia, who is bovoud question
tho best financial and most compe
tent business man in tho senate,
favored tho three per cent, rato in
a strong speech on Thursday, in
which lie was particularly severe
in denouncing the large allowance
made for the work o negotiating
