The cheapest board which she could obtain cost $3 a Week, and the problem was naturally a a difficult one. Her plight attracted at tention. It was found that many others working for pitifully small wages were unable to find respectable board with in their means. The outcome has been the opening up of a house for self supporting women on Illinois street, Chicago, which it is hoped, will be fol lowed by others. A few philanthropic ladies led the way, ami now over fifty wot king girls arc provided with a com fortable home like living'place. A night’s lodging costs 15 cents, or f 1.05 a week, nml breakfast is five cents extra, the two costing 1ff.40 weekly. Later, when fa cilities are provided, other meals will bo furnished. There is a pleasant parlor, and there will be a library. This is not a ehtirily, for the managers very sensibly aim to make tin' institution self support ing. But it is a novel attempt to reduce the cost of living to the lowest possible ligures compatible with the requirements of reason and comfort. Other “Homes” make comparatively elaborate provisions, which increase the cost of board. But the l liieago ‘‘Home’' is the most promis ing attempt to provide a respectable nml co ufortable bom ding -pl ice for $2 to t's’.oO u week, and it deserves success. 'I he Department of Agriculture has, through its entomologist, Professor Hiley, issued a bulletin on the insects which have devastate I the shade trees in Washington, particularly the rows of poplars on Fourteenth street, in 1886. The two principal depredators were the elm leal-bittle and the fall web-worm. The former has defoliated the elms from New York’to Virginia, and done great injury to many valuable shade trees; but now we have in detail the methods of successfully combating this ami other sue'i pests. The only way to deal with such hurtles of insects is to spray the trees about tin* middle of May tin the Central States!, mid repeat once a fortnight later, with Lend >n purple, by mixing it in water in a barrel and applying it to a grove of trees by a force pump, through an extensive tube consisting of a hose lutd long bamboo tube. In tjiis way trees or groves can be quickly sprated. This invention can Ik* used in forests, and is likewise useful for poisoning fruit tress, when not in fruit, w hile a shorter kind of extension pi|>c is convenient for under spraying all kinds of low plants. A third grievous |H*st is the tussock cater pillar, which has wrought great damage in Boston, New York and Philadelphia. It w ill probable become more numerous in other cities. I SHALL KIND REST. A little further on— There will be a time I shall fl ml rest anon; Thus do wo say, while eager youth invites Young hope to try her wings in wanton flights, And nimble fancy builds the soul a nest On some fur crag; but soon your name is gone— Burned lightly out while wo n*|s*at the jest With smiling confidence I shall find rest A little further on. A little further on I shall Hud rest; half fiercely we avow When noon boats on the dusty field and care Threats to unjoint our armor, and the glare Throbs with the pulse of battle, while life's best Flies with the flitting stars; the frenzied brow I’ains for tin* laurel more than for the breast Where taive soft-nestling waits. Not now, not now. With feverish breath we cry, I shall find rest A little further on. A little further on I shall find rest: half sail, at last, we say, When sorrow's settling clouds blurs out the gleam Os glory's torch, and to a vanished dream Love's palace hath been turnisl, then—all depressed, Despairing, sick at lieart—we may not stay Our weary feet, so lonely then doth seem This shallow haunted world. We, so un blest, Weep not to see the grave which waits its guest; And feeling round our feet the cool, sweet *'>ay, We speak the fading world farewell and say: Not on this side—alas! —l shall find rest A little further on. —H'lbrrf Hurns Wilson, in The Century. UNCLE NAIIITArS WEDDING. Uncle Nahum Nixon was reading the paper in his back parlor. Nobody would think, to look at flu* simple surroundings of tin- unpretentious apartments, that Mr. Nahum Nixon w as one of the wealth iest men in town. The carpet, it is true, was Axminster, but it had seen twenty two good years of service, and was down to the very warp; the faded red curtains ! were of moreen, instead of silk damask ; ( the old clock on the mantel was no ' Parisian affair of alabaster and gilt, but a substantial ('<setieut timepiece that struck with a whirr, like a partridge Springing out of her nest; the chairs of I old fashioned mahogany and hair cloth stood upright against the wall; the por traits of General Washington on horse back nml the surrender of Cornwallis, ornamented the gay-papered walls in frnmes of sombre gilt, ami the one elo gance of the apartment was a preposter- . ous bouquet of wax flowers under a cracked-glass shade. But I ncle Nixon bad remembered that furniture ever since he was a child, and he wouldn’t have, exchanged it for the fittings of a Parisian boudoir of the choicest specimens of the modern East - lake pattern. lb* was a rich man; that, was quite enough for him. “I- you please, Mr. Nixon,” said the trim maid servant, “.Ur. Marmaduke Bourne wants to see you, if you please, sir, if you arc quite at’leisurc.” "Mr. Marmaduke Bourne, eh?" The old gentleman took oil' his spectacles and laid them upon the folded newspaper. “Ask him to come in, Polly.” Ami Mr. Marmaduke Bourne came in, a tall, fresh colored young fellow, with sparkling gray eyes ami a straight Greek nose, that seemed as if it had been bor rowed from .some ancient statute of Apollo. "Wi 11, sir?" said Mr. Nixon. “Well, sir?” counter interrogated Mr. Bourne, “dal you get my letter?" “I got your letter,’' said Uncle Nahum. “So you want to marry my niece Faith:’’ ; “Yes, sir,” valiantly acknowledge Mr. Marmaduke Bourne. "Ah!" nodded Uncle Nahum. “But prchnps i<m don't understand all the tacts of the case." “The facts, sir?” “I want my niece to marry Colonel A-bland's son," slowly enunciated Uncle Nahum. “But, sir, she doesn’t love him:” “Pshaw!" smirk'd Uncle Nahum. “And if she doesn’t marry him she w ill be a beggar: I will give her no money of mine. Now do you understand matters. Marry her or not ns you please." He took up the new-paper once more , —a tacit intimation that the interview was nt an end “Sir" b gan Marmaduke. “That will <lo," said Mr. Nixon. “I only wish to “I'll,at will.do." thundered Mr. Nixon, nml so Marmaduke went away. Little Faith Nixon < nine down stairs presently, n blue eyed blossom of a girl, with yellow hair growing low down on her forehead, and a very little mouth, exactly the shape to suggest the idea of 1 kissing. I m le Nahum looked keenly up at her as she fluttered about.the room, straight ening a table cover there or patting down a fold here. "Yes," said he, with a curious twitch of the muscles around his eyes, "he has been lu re.” "I I did not ask any question, I nch* ’ Nahum.', “No, but your eyes did,” chuckled the old man. “He wants to marry you the im| incident young donkey." Faith came to her uncle's chai;* ami laid her hand on his shoulder. “T hat is not the worst of it, Uncle Nahum I want to marry him." “Humph!" snarled Mr. Nijon, inhigh contempt. “And what do you expect to live on. 1 should like to know?" "We can both work," said Faith brat ely. “You're more likely to starve," said Mr Nixon. “ Mind, don't count on help from me. If you will get married, you do it at your own risk." “Then you consent. Uncle Nahum " “No!"roared the old bachelor. “Noth ing of the* sort." “But, Uncle' Nahum. I should lx* wretched without Duke!" softly pleaded Faith “Fiddhstrings!" said the* old man. "And I'm sure he couldn't live with out me." “Trash!” grunted Mr. Nixon. “And if you please, uncle," added Faith, "perhaps I'd better go to my fri. il Violet Smith s to make up n y wedding things, since you disapprove so ' decidedly of my plans. Bhe live* In New York, you know, and it will be convenient for shopping, and—" ‘•And for all other tomfooleries in g* n oral,” rudely interrupted the old gentle ' man. “Yes, go to your Violet Smith's, ! but don’t expect to come back here.” “No, uncle,” said Faith, meekly. ’ “But you'll let me, thank you for all your kindnesss, and—” “No, I won’t!” said Uncle Nahum, so shortly that poor Faith fled up stairs in dismay, nml had a quiet little cry, not withstanding that she was so very, very happy. For I ncle Nahum,brusque and crabbed though he was, was all the father she had ever known. But she packed her trunk ' and went to Violet Smith's in New York, which was all the pleasanter, in that Marmaduke -Bourne had also betaken himself to this modern Gotham and gone to work studying law as if he meant to take Coke and Blackstone by storm. And Miss Violet Smith, who was a sen timental young lady, sympathized in tensely, ami the young couple were as unreasonably happy as many another couple had been before, nml will be again. But one day Duke Bourne came In with a face full of tidings. “Faith,” said he, “have you heard the news?” - “What news?" asked Faith. “Your Uncle will get the start of us, after all." “What do you mean, Duke?" “Why, he's going to be married.” “Uncle Nahum?" cried Faith, incredu lously. “Yes, Uncle. That accounts for his being so willing to get rid of us, ch, lit tle one?” “And who is the bride?” questioned Faith. “Why, that's the mooted y>int yet. Nobody seems to know. Some say one, ami some say another; but the general impression seems to be that it is the rich widow who owns the brownstone block on the corner." “I’m sure I hope he will be happy," said Faith with tremulous lips and eyes suffused with tears. “But I think he might have said something to us about it." “People are not generally in a hurry to proclaim the fact that they are about to make fools of themselves,” said Duke Bourne bitterly. “Why,” cried Faith, laughing through her tears, “that is precisely what he said of us.” But the next day a letter from Uncle Nahum himself settled the matter. He wrote: “There is to be a wedding at my house on the 17th. and I want you ami Marma duke to be there without fail.” “A wedding! At his house!” cried Faith. “I supposed weddings were cele brated at the bride’s residence.” “Ho they are, dear,” said Miss Smith; “but your uncle was always so eccentric.’’ “What shall we do?” asked Faith. “Why, goof course," said Marmaduke Bourne, “to show that we bear no ill will, if for no other reason." The 17th of March arrived, a cold, blustering night, and the old red brick bouse was all in a glimmer of light as the young betrothed pair drew up to the door. Uncle Nahum met them on the threshold, in his old-fashioned, swallow tailed coat, with a huge white camclia in his buttonhole and a pair of surprisingly white kid gloves. “Have you brought your white frock?" was his first question to his niece. “No, Uncle, I—” “That won't do," said Uncle Nanutn. “No one must come to my wedding without a marriage garment. It’s lucky I provided one for you. Come upstairs now ami change your die s.” “But, uncle, a white silk!" cried Faith, looking in dismay at the glistening dress laid out for her use. “What then? Isn’t white silk the thing for a wedding? Put it on quick, and I’ll scud some one to bring you down in five minutes.” And so, with a doubting heart, Faith Nixon robed herself in the white dress, with its trimmings of vapory blonde and long trail. “Where’s your veil?" said Uncle Na hum. when he came himself, a few min utes later, to the door. “ Uncle, I can't wear a veil,” pleaded Faith. “ But you must! ” said Uncle Nahum, “ nobody i onics to my wedding without a veil.” And he placed the wreath lightly on her head. “ But Uncle Nahum, they will take me for the bride.” “ Let ’em,” said the old gentleman. “Take my arm. Now come down stairs, ami I'll show you the bride. Here she is.” Lifting her bewildered eyes, Faith Nixon beheld her own figure reflected in a full length mirror at the stairway. “Here's the bride,” chuckled Uncle Nahum, leading her up to Bourne, “and here's the groom,” touching Bourne's shoulder. “And here's the parson, all ready and waiting. Now reverend sir. ' to the clergyman' “marry'em as fast as ever you can." And before cither of the astonished young couple could remon strate they were made man and wife. “Duke," sail] the bride as soon as the ceremonv was over, “did you know of this?” “No, I didn’t," said Mr. Bourne, with h’s arm very tight around his little wife's waist. “But 1 must say 1 approve very highly of the whole proceeding." Uncle Nahum stood by, rubbing his hands, with his face wreathed in one prodigious smile. “So you supposed it was I who was going to be married, eh? Not a bit of it, not a bit of it. I am too old a bird to be caught with siu h chaff as that. No. no, Faith. Did you thiuk I was going to turn my wee birdie out of her nest, after all the years she has been cher ished there? No, no, 1 only wanted to assure myself that your fancy was a real fancy, and this young rascal here," smit ing Bourne on the shoulder once more, “loved you for yourself alone, and not for the money which he thought the old man was going to leave you. And you're to live hen*, both of you. and we will be happy ever after. Strike up your harps and tiddies. Let’s have a dance, let's all be merry together." Uncle Nahum Nixon himself led off the bridal quadrille, dancing in the good old style of fifty years ago. “I can't have a wedding every day," -aid Uncle Nahum, breathlessly, as he cut a last pigeon wing. * and 1 mean to make the most of it.” BEFORE THE RAIN. The blackcaps pipe among the reeds, And there ’ll be rain to follow; There is a murmur as of wind In every coign and hollow; The wrens do chatter of their fears While swinging on the barley-ears. Come, hurry, while there yet is time, Pull up thy scarlet bonnet. Now, sweetheart, as my love is thine. There is a drop upon it. So trip it ere the storm hag weird Doth pluck the barley by the beard. Lo! not a whit too soon we're housed; The storm—with yells above us; The branches rapping on the panes Seem not in truth to love us. And look where through the clover bush The nimble footed rain doth rush! —Amelia Hives, in Harper's. HUMOR OF THE DAY. A hero of the pen—The prize pig.

It is a very old fancy says the Philadel phia Call that mines are inhabited by spirits, who are jealous of their treasures and of a ver}’ resentful character. In early days these spirits assumed the forms of serpents, especially in Egyptian le gends, and to such an extent that they were regarded as the gods of metals, the most famous being Hoa, the serpent god 1 of Chaldea, master of all wisdom and guardian of the treasures of the mines. The belief that evil spirits guard the treasures of the emerald mines is as com mon among the Peruvians as it was among the Scythians in the time of Pliny. In Sardinia the ancient silver mines are rarely entered from dread of a venomous spider called the solifuga, so named from avoiding the sun. Their bite was considered fatal. The traditions are unworthy of belief, but no doubt such a spider was found in the silver mines, for Agricola mentions the fact and gave them the name of Ittcifega. Death on a Sweet Tooth. A medical plant is found in India which destroys the power of tasting sugar. This plant, thegymnema sylves tre, grows in the Deccan and in the A—am and on the Coromondcl coast. By chew ing two or three leaves of it a person may extinguish his susceptibility to sweet savors. Morbid cravings for sweetmeats that injure indigestion may thus be cor rected. As thegymnema is said, also to diminish the power of enjoying a cigar, great benefit may probably be derived j from it by imtemperate smokers. Candy and cigarettes being the bane of the small boy, prudent parents miy be ex pected to stock themselvs promptly with j gymuetna Sylvestre. — Nature. A DESPERATE FIGHT. It la Made at Nl«ht With a Savage I.onp- I Cervier. “When I was a boy,” said Judge Poland to a newspaper reporter, “the woods in Vermont were mighty thick and the settlers were few. At that time the w’oods were full of catamounts or loup-cerveir—‘loo sevee,’ the hunters called them —and the farmers had great to do to keep the fierce beasts from carrying off their sheep and killing their cattle. A loup cervier is pretty nearly I as big as a mastiff, as fierce as a tiger, 1 and as strong as a lion, and is altogether ! about as uncomfortable a creature to deal with as ever lived. My father had j with him on his farm then a man named Jonas .Shepherd, a fellow of prodigious | strength and such great courage that I I don’t believe he ever knew the sensa- j tion of fear. My father had not lost i much by the loup cerviers, becau-e he 1 had kept his stock securely closed in a strong shed, which none of the prow ling beasts had yet succeeded in break ing into. Tire house stood on the edge ,of ihe clearing, and back of it for miles and miles there was nothing but the mountains and woods. <no night the family had all gone to bed except Shep herd, who sat up by the big pine fire shelling corn with a jack knife stuck in a log of wood. Ail of a sudden he heard a crash from the cattle shed and a big noise among the cattle. He dashed out n his shirt sleeves and found that an enormous loup cervier, the biggest of his kind ever seen in the country, bad broken in the roof of the shed and was in among the sheep. “As soon a, he heard Shepherd ap proaching he jumped to the roof of the shed and, crouching for a moment, j sprang through the air for the intruder. Shepherd jumped aside and the big cat landed harmlessly on the ground. In an instant he was up again and a furi- ' ous battle between the man and the savage brute began. Shepherd had a knife, and for a while he tried to make : it reach a vital spot, while the ‘loo’ screamed and bit and tore its tremend ous claws through the man’s flesh. The noise of the fight awakened the rest of the family aud father, grabbing up a pine torch from the fire, ran out of the house. He was just tn time to see a curious spectacle. Shepherd, without a stitch of clothing on and covered from head to foot with blood, was holding the screaming, struggling *loo’ by the throat and heels high above his ead, and running as fast as he could towards the woods. We all dashed 'after him. and were just in time to see the end of the contest. Shepherd ran into the brook until he was in up to hi waist, and then plunged the ferocious brute in and out of sight. There was a tremend ous struggle for a few minutes, during which Shepherd's blood died the brook red, and then everything was still. Then Shepherd came out, dragging the drowned body of the ‘1 o’ after him. V< e got him to bed as soon as we could and did everything possible to relieve him, but it was more than three months before he was able to stir, and he never quite recovered from his injuries. My father said he counted more than 200 distinct wounds on his body. Old hunters said that if he had'nt had sense enough, to drown the brute he would have been killed sure. The fight took place where one of the finest churches in New England stands to-day.” Uncle Jake Ziegler. The Philadelphia Times says: Uncle Jake Ziegler of the Butler herald has not drunk intoxicating liquor, for a quarter of a century. He deri es his nickname of uncle from an incident at a funeral, when the bereaved mpther asked him if he was ever a father. He replied: “Never, madame; bitt I expect to be an uncle before another sun rises.” He is so popular at home that during the war a pious old fanner, who daily prayed for the preservation of the Union, and also that the Lor i would especially visit His displeasure upon the Democrats and bring confusion upon them, expressed his wishes thus: “All of them, Lord, except Uncle Jake Ziegler, for everybody knows he is all right.” Home Council We take pleasure in calling your attention to a remedy so long needed in carrying children safely through the critical stage of teething.
