I know my face and hands are brown, But I am strong and spry • You cau not find in all the town A happier boy than I. With health, with hearty appetite, Willi nothing to annoy, It is a sweet and true delight To be a farmer’s boy. My pants arc patched, my cap is lorn, There’s smut upon my nose; My muddy shoes are badly worn— They laugh at both the toes. My mother makes a suit, for me That I can soon destroy, But it is always fun to bo A lively farmer^ boy! I love the mountains grand a*ul steep. They make me think of God; The hillside pastures, where the sheep Browse on the tiedi, green sod; The spreading beech and maple trees,. The squirrels, cute and coy, The birds, the butterdies, the bees— 1 am a farmer’s boy! 1 can with a jiick-knife carve a ship, Or inuke a whistle shrill; Can stones upon the river skip, Down by the old ted mill; The tallest trees can nimbly climb, Can sing, can shout with with joy, Can have a splendid, jolly time, And be a farmer’s boy! —Kui/enc J. Hall, tn Chicago Iutcr-Ociau. A SMOND LOVE* “Another heurtaclie!”sighed John •dllisoti, as ho 6iit noiir the open window of his pleusant 6tudy und watched—himself u a seen—a young couple who went idly and pjeasuntly strolling down one of the shady, bower-lilte garden paths. “The old misery of twelve years ago has come buck, like a ghost from tile grave, to haunt and torture me«~ Jt was Isa bel then—Isabel, with her cruel co< q.miry, her mercenary calculation, her buying iw.d selling of hand and heart; it is her sister Florece—sweet, unconscious, innocent, beautiful Florence—now.” lie arose, and turning from the window, as if the sight, that recalled tlio past and assured him of present suffering, were too intolerable to bits' gazed upon, began to walk up and down tbe room hurriedly., at the same time communing with his own heart. “That I, at my ago, fifteen years her senior, should love, manly, hope lessly, this guv and innocent girl of seventeen! Experience has taught no wisdom in my case, else should l ever have allowed my-heart to become so bound up in one of Isabel Wil- mer’s blood and mUhe? And, yet I know—I know—the child is good,, loving, pme—all that her sister was lint: and I have grown to love her as any life. “For one whole year, since Shu came home from school, she has-been at once the joy, the hope the solace and the torture of my life. Would to heaven i had never seen her. And with a grain of impatient an guish, he Hung himself into a chair, and hojved Ins head down on his arms upon the table. Long lie sat so, given up to an emotion to winch, for worlds, he v'ould lime had a witness; and yet ho hud one ut the hist. , A fair young girl, whose light footfall and soft, clinging dress inaoe no sound on the thick velvet carpet She entered at the half open door and stood for one moment as if trans fixed at sight of his sorrow. The r.exi acting on the warm im pulse of an innocent heart—she glid ed swiftly and noiselessly to his side, and sank upon her knees beside him. “What is it?” she breathed, softly and earnestly. “Oh, dear guardian, what troubles you so? Tell me, and let me comfort you.” t > •* rm-. jWt |ip..; a rnyiR lie slmqik away as if some dread ful thing had- risen suddenly beside him. She here! She! Fresh from her young lover's embraces! Per haps herself about to speak the words that should doom him to uu eternity of pain! “Go from me—go!” he gasped, mid pushed her hands away, not knowing, in Ins anguish and sur prise, what lie said or did. But the young girl, startled, wounded, having no clew to the se cret workings of liis mind, no sus picion ot IDs jealous mi-.cry, contin ued to kneel beside* him. uiid gazed reproachfully into his agitated face, while the tears streamed down her own. ••You shrink from me; you will pot let me console you. Ahl 1 know why—1 know why! I am neither so ignorant nor so blind as you.think- 1 know that 1 remind you of a love deceived, a hope destroyed, a happy time gone by. Isabel left a letter whig!) I never told you of. 1 know the truth! Not all; perhaps, but enough to guess the rest. She was to have been your wife; you loved her dearly Shu led yo.i on-r—poor Isabel! Siie is dead, and she has suffered. Site led you on until your very wedding day. and then eloped—with a wealth ier lover. “The .letter tells mo how his wealth was spent in dissipation, while you—whom she had forsaken for his sane—grew rich. Ho died at last, and left her destitute. “Then, by mere accident—if such a thing as accident exists—you found her out, and by your pardon, your pi tv, your generosity, smoothed her swift passage to the grave. “SSho left mo to your care, a help less orphan, scarcely ten years old, without a friend, suve you in the wide world. . The letter, written in her dying hours,' was to be opened on my Ilf teen i It birthday. “It gave you to my cure, as, years before, she hud given mo to yours. ‘Comfort him,’ itsuid; qnitkosonie atonement for my sins; try to console him.’ “God knows how gladly I would try. But you reject me; you grieve for tho one false woman whom you loved, and will take comfort from no ot tier. And as she finished her passionate reproach, she sank down low upon the floor beside him; and covering her face in half unconscious shame of pain and heart, sobbed bitter !y. ' : •. The irlin’s whole soul was taken by surprise. He stooped and clasped lief to his bosom. “It is not for Isabel that I grieve now,” ho cried. “The heart she crushed has revived again, and loves another, dearer, truer, worthier far. But this second love is hopeless as the first. How can von, dear child, 'happy in an assuiod and returned affection, sympathize with ouu who loves in vain?” She looked at him in shy sur prise. •*1 do not understand,” she .Mid, modestly disentangling herself from his cm brace. " \V hat affect ion ?” He answered, bitterly: “Do. I not sec that you and Rich ard love each other? Why docs he not come to ask your hand?” The crimson deepened iii her cheek, and she cast down her eyes. “Ho knows already that my baud cannot he his.” she said “You are wrong if you think I love— him.” The slightest possible hesitation before Unit last world—tho faintest possible emphasis upon it—-and tier cheek was red us tho heart pf the dmmnskyoac, and her whole form trembled strangely. Was it Lbe contagion of her emotion that set John Allisun trembling too?—or was it the sweet, wild hope, springing suddenly to life in his heart, that 3tartled him? Ho caught her hand—a little, Huttciiug yielding prisoner—and ul most unconsciously kissed it. “You do lovo some one, then? Oh, child, if it could be that you loved—” Then suddenly doubt seized him—why shculd it be him— so much her senior? No,—Ins hope had fooled him! “Will you not confide in me?’’ lie said, sadly "Is there anything 1 would not do to se cure your happiuoss? Tell me, whom do you love?” “Guardian,”she whispered, “can’t you guess?” Next miiiuto she luid ropented those three words. They had struck him like a blow, ilo staggered buck, gazing at tho downcast, crim son face: tho tight-clasped hands; the slender form, trembling in a very agony of maiden shame. Then, like a flash, ho comprehended all, and with a cry of rapturous joy caught her to his bosom. “Florenoe!—-my life—is it to mo your heart is given? Am I so blest? Oh, child! I have loved you long without a hopo. I have siokeueti with jealous anguish and despair. The love that Isabel deceived had never a'tithe, a portion of tho passion of my manhood that is yours. To cull you mine—my own loved wife—is my soul’s one desire. Your love alone can atone the sorrows of my past amtsocuro my happiness.” {She sank upon his nreastj her arms stole around his neck. “Bo happy, thou, my heart’s one love!” she whispered. And a second lovo was blest indeed when John Allison claimed Florenoe as his bride.—New York Lodger. A curious instance of what a simple comma can prounco has been noticed of late. It runs as follows: Lord Pulmerston then entered- on his head, a white hat upon Ids feet, large but well polished hoots upon Ins brow, a dark cloud in his hand, his faithful walking slick in his eye, a menacing glare say nothing. “pan you tell me w-hat kind of weather wo may expect next month?” wroLo a farmer to the editor of his country paper. Tho editor replied: “It is my belief that tho weather next month.will bo very much like youi subscription bill.” The.faruier wondered for ail hour wImt tho edi* tor was driving at when ho happen ed to think of tho word “unsettled,” lie sent a postal note. I was never exactly buried alive,’ said an old clerk, recounting his ex perienoo, "but I once worked in a store that did not advertise. When I camo out my hair was almost 'as white as vou now soo it. Solitary confinement did it. Does Prohibition Prohibit. 1 hero has been so much of ridi cule and misrepresentation with re gard to the actual working and re sults of the prohibition movement, by those who fear its effect upon the two great political parties, and es pecially in tho west, that it is worth while examining uu uuluul estimate uf the situation from ,oue of its ad vocates. Mr. L. ftl. Latham, of Marion Iowa, furnishes such an es timate to tho New York Evening Rost, which journal, with character istic fairness, gives its spado in its Coin hi us, although opposed to the movement. Mr. Latham claims, in subs',a nee, that, despite occasional defeats, the movement is winning its way to reasonable success; that the “open saloons” us compared with three years ago, is practically non existent, boys, if no other class,j,a$^ belter protected from its,temptations t han ever before. There is a inai-;kud decrease in crime arising from drink ing, us shown by police reports of ull the largo cities and towns; while this is less marked in the river towns, where there is a large foreign elo. munt, tlie popuiur estimation is that such crime is only about one-ten (ii of wlmt it was in the days of the li cense saloon. Tho order aud sobriety which now, characterize large gatherings, as at fairs, circuses, etc., uro so marked us to excite comment, and employers of railroad hands indorse the Iowa pro- hib tory law on business grounds. A mem bet of tho firm of Shepherd, Weston & Co., heavy railroad con tractors, is quoted us saying: We never had such u quiet, indus trious, and reliable body of men in our employ as those we put to work outlie Sibley extension, aud I attri bute it to the fact that the s iloen men did not daro follow us into Io wa. I want to say further thut if prohibition comes up in our slate (Minnesota) I’m going to voto for it on strictly business principles. A great impetus has been given to tnc movement bv the cold-blooded assassination of Rev. Mr. Haddock, one of the most prominentuudjaptivo of those engaged in tho enforcement of tho law and in pushing the prose cation of its violators. It has fast* onod a stigma upon tho saloon impr est ami party as one which employs assassins and uses murder us means 10 its ends, and has aroused the determination of tho friends of tem perance to a more rigid enforcement of the law, a closer watoh upon its violin ions, both upon undjseorot, and a speedier adjustment of the penal ties when parties aro proven guil ty. To tho urgument that it is impossi ble to legislate people into virtue, sobriety, and other moral qualities, tho prohibitionists roply that a law which “restrains men from moral and physical degradation, protects homes, and rescues unnumbered child ion from pauperism and on me is far better than flagrant disobe dience and unquestioned indulgence of personal liberty.” In short, tho question, Doos'Jpro- hibiiion prohibit? is omplmtically answered in the affirmative by this observer of its practical operation.— Chicago News. “Ami you say you would die for me, George?” “Dio for you! Yes, a thousand; times "You aro a noble man, George.” “My dari ng, you don’t know me jot.” “Well, .dourest, I do not wish you to die for mo, but I will toll you what you can do for uie to show your affections.” “What is it darling?

Shall I tell yon bright ami} in constant moon thut is glinting the hill tops with her light, that she must not shiuo on thy face too roughly—ha!” "No*, George, no,” she -smilingly said, “I do not wish you to attempt such impossibilities. AH I n»k of you is ibis ” “Yes, .i y darling.” “All I ask of you is this—don't call again.” v Words of Wisdom. Uu is well paid that is well satis fled. A young man idle, an old man needy.
