An Infalliable Remedy-
If there is one thing more than
another that annoys a good house
wife, who is nervously sensitive to
all mat is gloss and ill-timed, it is
the habit of some husbands have of
using profane language in their
homes. In many eases tins is mere
I hongtlossness on the part of the
god man who, never gives a
ihousrht to the better half; even
should she mildly remonstrate, he
pays no attention to the rebuke.
A lady whose husband was ad
dicted the bad practice we have al
luded to, came to her family- pbysi.
ciau, laid lie gr;e,auce- before him
and said:
Now, Dr N , wont you re.
moustrato with him, and try to
break him of his habit? I know lie
will listen to you,
IV by minium, said the doctor ho
would pay no attention to anything.
I cou it recommend a prescription,
to be administered by you that will
certainly oure him. It is an iufulli
hie remedy.
Oh; what is it doctor?
Well, when John comes home again
and swears, do you swear hack at
him. (It course I don’t want you to
take the name oftheLordin vain, but
and n things a little for his benefit.
And she did.
I he next day John came in and in
quired whether dinner was ready and
lie was told it was not.
W ell, why in the devil isn’t it ? said
he.
because, she replied, the wood was
so d-d wet the fire wouldn’t burn.
W hy, Mary, what is the matter with
you? \re you crazy or have you
been drinking?
Neither, she said, an 1 quietly pro
ceeded to put on the dinner.
The beef didn't melt like Imtter be
tween his teeth—-it rather resisted all
eflorts at mastication, like sq much
India-rubber; finally John blurted
out :
W hat makes this d-n beef so infernal
tough ?
Alary looked up archly and rcpli
ed :
‘At ell, John, 1 suppose you went
down to tlie butcher s, ami without
knowing the <MVe r < ncc, picked out a
piece of some (Id old slug that h.idn’t
been fed for a iiMitth.
h'hn jumped up. looked at hi* wile in
dummy, and wanted to know whnl hum
langtm c from I ei lips meant.
It mealiK, ju.-d tbi*. John: you are Hie
head o' th. family, and just us long as
you think II mnn : v to swear in uiy ptv*-
enee, I ii.t<nd to do tie same. II you
and uiM like to hear it, you know how to
prevent it.
The cure was radical, amt to this date
M iry h is never been compelled to admin
ister another dose of Hr N s prescrip
tion.
Homo Sweet Home
In the spring of 18(>3, two great
armies were enc imped on either
side of liie Rappahannock Itivcr,
one dressed in blue and the other
in gfey. As twilight foil tlie bauds
lon the Union side began to play
Tin- slai Spangled Banner and Ral
ly Round the Flag, and that el a’,
hinge of musi'i was taken up on the
other side, and they responded with
I lie B mine Blue Flag and Away
Down .South m Dixie. Jt was born
hi upon the soul of a single soldier
in one ol those bands of music to
begin a sweeter and more tender
air, and slowly as ho played it they
j fined in it Hint of chorus of the in
slrumouls upon the Union side, un
til finally a mighty chorus swelled
up mid down our army—Home
Sweet Home. When they had fin
i-hed there was no challenge yon
der, for every hand upon that fur
tber shore had taken up that lovely
air so attuned to all that is holiest
and dearest, and one great chorus
of the two great hosts went up to
God; and when they had finished,
from the boys in grey came a chal
lenge. Three cheers for home! and
as they went resounding through
the skies from Loth sides of the in- ;
er, something on soldiers' cheeks
was led of!' the stains of powder.—
New York Methodist.
Hard Work.
What if* your secret of success?
asKed a lady of Turner, tho distin
guished painter, lie replied, I
have no secret, madam, but haru
worK.
Hays l)r Arnold, tho difference
between one boy and another is not
so much in talent as in energy.
Nothing, says Reynolds, is deni
ed well-directed labor, and noth -
in to be attained without it.
Excellency in any department,
says Johnson, can now be attained
only by the laborfor a lifetime, it is
not to be purchased at a less price.
There is but one method, said
Sydney Smith, and that is hard la
bor; and the who will not pay that
price for distinction had better at
once dedicate himself to the pur
suit of the fox.
Step by step, reads the French
proverb,one goes very far.
A father wishing to dissiusde his
daughter from all thoughts of mat
rimony quoted the words: She who
marries does w ell, but she who mar
ries not, does better. The daught
er meekly replied, father I urn con
tent to do well; let those do betttr
' who can.
Just the Girl.
Ilis name was Augustus Sinythr;
he was a clerk in a dry goods store,
and didn't earn enough to starve on,
but with that sublime assurance
which distinguishes the lah-dr-lah
young man of the day, he was pay
ing attention t, > the prettiest girl
in the city, lie managed by not
paying bis Washerwoman and tai
lor to take her to the theatres, but
as times were getting iiard lie con
cluded to marry her and save the
expense of boarding. By some
process of mental arithmetic known
to the genius he discovered with
great difficulty that what was not
enough for ono was not enough for
two, and forthwith he concluded to
pop. Ho knew that his persistent
sits had kept all other young men
“way, so he bed no fear of a rival,
When the time came and he found
himself in the company of his Lau
ra in her papa's comfortable parlor,
lie leisurely seated himself by her
side on the sofa, took her dimpled
little hand, used only to tinkle
a piano with, aan said iu a bronze
voice:
Do ,r Miss Laura, I have oonclu
to marry
Laura started as ho intended she
should. Then, he continued gran
dilcquently:
I w-ant a dear little girl about
your sizj, with a great big heart
just like yours, to share my lot.
I* it on ‘Join t avenue? mumured
Laura.
No, dearest, but what are locali
ties to hearts that love! I want a
girl that is good-tempered, sweet,
econonoiuiol mid who loves me?
Darling, do you know of such a one,
I .aura faintly : Yes, fill yes, I am
sure I do.
One who would rather live with me
in povi rty than dwell with some otli
man with riches ? Who would esteem
it a pleasure to seive me, cook my
meals, keep the house tidy, and Isicn
for my for my footsteps—who would
rise early and sit up late for my own
sake?
Oh, how beautiful? murmured Lau
ra. Just like a dear, sacrificing wo
man.
Do you know of such a one, my
angel?
Yes, I do, responded Laura, fer
vcntly, but you must not call me your
angel, lor she might not like it; she
is in the kitchen now washing the dish
es, and she told mother this morning
th it she’d just as leave get married
Ibis winter as live out, il she only
felt able to support a husband. She’s
just the girl you want, and will love
you in an im h of your life.
But Augustus Smvthc had lied into
the outer darkness; the too much
ness ot the oci asion overcame him
like a summer ( loud. —Free I‘ress.
Too Many Friends.
A police magistrate iu question
ing a tramp, whose bearing indicat
ed that ho had seen better days:
You look as if you hud been a gen
tleman, he remarKs:
Y'es, says the prisoner with a
sigh, once I worth a hundred thou
sand.
Gambled eh.
No, sir.
Squandered it in riotous living?
No, sir.
Then to what vice were yoaedic
led?
Friendship, sir.
There was a little company at Mr
Brown's and the youngest daught
er, a bright girl of seven, was talk
ing to her sister s beau. Why, Mr
Sidney, she said, loud enough for
everybody to hear, you can talk real
plain, can't you? Of courso I can,
Fanny, Did you think I wasn't old
enough to talk plain? Yes, she an
swered, I thought so, for I heard
you talking to sister the other night
and you kept on saying, oo tweet
sing, oo! Oo ’ovey dovey, turn tiss
oor own tweet Siddy, so much, that
I wasn't sure but yon had a impeg
iment in your speech. Fanny was
excused and Mr Sidney was carried
out on a shovel. —.Steubenville Her
ald.
I come over to see you about
your boy, said a neighbor last evens
ing.He's very troublesome about tho
house. He has beon throwing rot
ton apples into my front yard and
calling my wife Old Molly Drubs.
And I was going over to see you
about youi boy, was the rejoinder.
He chalked iny wood shed all over
with a picture of my wife driving
me out of the back door with a ket
tle of water in one hand and a
oroom in the other. Is that so?
Then I go in for civil service reform
within our own families. The boys
never knew what they were licked
for that night.—New Haves lteg
