UTTIK lIROHN IUKDN. TUe following poem, written by Mary H. Kroufc, of CrawforduvlUe. Indiana, ten yearn ago. when it* author won in her thirteenth year, in one of the meat beautiful and expressive ever uonnod in the English Uuguage. amt should find u place throughout th length and breadth of America wherever the digulty of labor i recognised: They drive home the cows from the pasture, l!p through the long, shady lane. Where the quail whistles loud in the wheat held That is yellow with ripening grain. They find, tu tho tin ik waving grasses. Where the scarfed -ItjHkul amt’.fberry grows, They gather the naaiaest attoWilroi s. .And tio tlrst erimson buds of tho rose. Th*y toaa the hay in the im a low. IWjr gathar-W? (Mur bloom white. Thejk tiuKl whVr. tUediisky grapes pwple luthe sbfWlnted Octob* r light. They know where thv apples hang ripest, And are sweeter than Italy’s wlues; They know where the fruit hangs the thick' st, Outlie long, thorny blackberry vines. They gather tho delicate seaweeds. And build tiny rattles of sand; They pick up tho beautitul sea shells— Fairy barks that have drifted to land. They wav from the tall, rocking tree tops. Where, the oriole’* hammock uost swings. And at night-time are folded in slumber liy a song that a loud mother sings. Those who toll bravely are strongest ; The humble and poor become great; And from those brown-handed children Hhall grow mighty rulers of State. The pen Of the author and statesman. The noble and wise of the land. The sword and chisel aud pallette. Khali be held iu tho little brown hand. The King And (lir Hidden. The King was visiting the village school, and when tho examination was over ho spoke to a bright little girl named Christinoben: “Little maiden, you said your poem so well that I am sure you go to a very good sehool; and have an excel lent teacher; so I must examine you a little. To which kingdom does this orange belong?” “To the vegetable kingdom,” said the little maid, without a moment's delay, while Herr Sehunke could scarcely keep on his feet from anxiety and excitement. "And this?” taking a ight. gold piece from his purse. “To the mineral kingdom,” “Right—right, my little maid. And now iell me this : To which kingdom do 1 belong?” He? to which kingdom did he be long? Chrtstinehen looked at him with wide-open, solemn eyes, up aud down. She had had object-lessons on the camel and the elephant, t he crow and the magpie; and had ever been allowed to hold the stuffed forms of tho last two for a moment in her lit tle hands; but. a king! She laid never had such a subject for an ob ject-lesson : but she .remembered that she always said his name evory day in Iter prayers. So she raised her blue eyes confidently to him,and said, modestly, hut very clearly: "To the kingdom of Heaven.” And the King caught the little maid en up iu his aims and kissed her, re membering who had said to what kingdom she and such ns she belong ed, and wished he might grow each day more like to them, and so have the promised right to belong there too. As he set her gently down, aud dropped tho gold piece and the or ange in her apron, all the mothers that stood around with clasped hands sobbed, under their breath, “God bless him!” ami even the Burgomas ter blew his nose. • ♦ • Wai-HUta)millin'. Lord Macaulay, the great essayist aud historian, wrote these words: “Children, look in those eyes, lis ten to that dear voice, notice the feel ing of even a single touch that is be stowed upon you by that gentle hand! Make much of it while yet you have that most precious or all gifts a loving mother. Read the unfathom able love of those eyes; the kind anx iety of that tone and look, however slight your pain. In after life you may have friends -fond, dear, kind friends; but never will you have again the inexpressible love and gentleness lavished upon you which none hut a mother bestows'. Often, do I sigh in my struggles with the hard, uncaring world, for the sweet, deep security J felt when, of an evening, nestling in her bosom, I listened to some quiet tale, suitable to my age, read in her tender and untiring voice. Never can I forget her sweet glances east upon me when 1 appeared asleep; never tier kiss of peace at night. Years have passed away since we laid her beside my father in tile old church yard; yet still her voice whispers float tho grave,anil her eye watches over me as I visit spots long since hallowed to the memory of my moth er.” • ♦ • Believe in yourself. It is said that when John C. Cal houn was in Yule College he was rid iculed by his fellow students for his intense application to study. “Why, sirs,” said lie, “i am forced to make tlm most of my lime that I may ac quit myself creditably when in Con gress. Do you doubt it? 1 assure you if [ wore not convinced of myabiiity to reach the national cupftol as a rep resentative within three years, i would leave college this very day.” Let every young man thus have faitli in himself, and earnestly take hold of life scorning all props and buttresses, all crutches and life preservers. Let him believe, with IVstulozzi, that no man on God’s earth is either willing or able to help any other man. Let him strive to tie a creator rather than a borrower. Instead of wielding the rusted sword of various forefathers, let him forge his own weapons, and, conscious of the God in him and the Providence over him, let him fight his own battles with his good lance. Instead of sighing for an education, capital, for friends, and declaring that “if lie had only had these lie would be somebody,” let him remem ber that, as Horace Greeley said, he is looking iu the wrong end of the tele scope, for if lie were somebody he would speedily have all the boons whose absence he is bewailing, in stead of being one of the foiled poten tialities of which the world is so full —one of the subjunctive lifiroes, who always might, could, would, or should do great tilings, is what nobody can understand—let him bo in the imper ative mood, and do that which ids talents are indicative. This lesson once learned and acted on, and every man will discover within himself, un der God, the elements and capacities of usefulness and honor, “Getting on in tho world.” Who Arp Rich? The man with good firm health is rich. . , So is the man with a clear con science. So is the parent with vigorous chil dren. . . , So is an editor of a good paper with a big subscription list. So is a clergyman whose coat the children pluck when he passes them in their play. So is the wife who has the whole of the heart of a good husband. So is the child who goes to sleep with a kiss on his lips, and for whose waking. a blessing awaits. So is the maiden whose horizon is not bounded by the coining man, but who has a purpose in life, whether she meets him or not. So is the young man who, laying his hand on his heart, can say: “I have treated every womarn I ever met.as I should wish my sister treat ed by other men.” The horrid men poke a good deal of fun at the pull-back dresses now worn, but they like to see them for all that. warp ami i iu.im;, run THOMS WHO HAVr. “NOTHIN!! TO WEAK.” A lady writer says “stockings must match country dresses in color.” What is tlie color of a county dress? One of the ohangos that will be in vogue next season will appear in stripes of divers widths united iu one oostume. Lengthwise stripes are being Intro duced In lino hosiery. Woolen barege is coming iu vogue again. Plain damask-figured and striped gauzes are elegant for full-dress toil ets for the summer. Fine black chip wattenus are trim med with two bows of Valenciennes lace, black velvet, and clusters of small fruits. A bride’s vail now must just reach below the waist. A plain jockey basque simply piped on tlm edge, and a short walking skirt with two or three pleatings, make a tasteful suit. A pretty country toilet is of indigo blue barege, trimmed with ruffles of white muslin wrought in english open work embroidery. l’alo blui' gauze in damask designs of the same shade is trimmed with wide rich fringe, and worn over gros grain of the same tint. Dress goods in Paris are astonish ingly cheap, but tho fare there and back makes them cost more than you have to pay for the same quality of goods in this country. A French style of silk stockings is of lemon color, embroidered with a spray of small red currants, or a bunch of black currants upon the in step. Fair and wealthy ladies wear their initials in diamonds upon black vel vet necties of an evening and for balls. Among importations from Paris are colored raw silks and foulard under garments, such ns corset-cov ers. • ♦ - rental!' Reality. Here is encouragement for those who grieve over the thought that female beauty soon fades. “History is full of accounts of tho fascinations of women who were no longer young. Thus Helen of Troy was over forty when she perpetrated the most famous elopement on re cord; and as the siege of Troy lasted a decade she could not have been very juvenile when the ill fortune of Paris restored her to her husband, who is reported to have received her with unquestioning love and grati tude. Pericles wedded the curtesan Aspasin when she was thirty-six, and yet she afterwards for thirty yearsor more, wielded an undiinished reputation for beauty. Cleopatra was past thirty when Anthony fell under her spell, which never lessened until her death, nearly ten years after; and Livia was thirl y-tliree when she won the heart of Augustus, over whom she maintained her ascend ancy to tho last. “Turning to more modern history, where it, is possible to verify dates more accurately, we have tile extra ordinary Diane do Poritiers, who was thirty-six when Henry the Sec ond (then Duke of Orleans, and just half her age) became attached to her : and she was held as tho lirst. ladyand most beautiful women at court up to the period of that monarch’s death, and tin: accession to power of Catha rine of Me.dicis. Anna of Austria was thirty-eight when she was said to be tho handsomest queen of Europe, and when Buckingham and Richelieu were her jealous admirers. Ninon tie l’Eiielos, the must, celebrat ed wit and beauty of her day, wns the idol of three generations of the golden youth of France, and she was seventy-two when the Abbedo Berais fell in love wit h tier. True it is that in thi‘ ease of this lady a rare combi nation of culture, talents, and per sonal attractions endowed their pos sesor seemingly with the gifts of eter nal youth. Blanca Capelin was thir ty-eight when the Grand Duke Fran cisco fell captive toiler charms and made her his wife, though he was live years her junior. Louis the Fourteenth wedded M !m *. do Main tenon when slm was forty-three years of age. (lathrine the second of Russia was thirty-three when she seized l lie empire of Russia ami cap tivated the dashing young General Orloff. Up to the time of her death, fat sixty-seven' she seemed to have re tained the same bewitching powers, for the lamentations were heart felt, among all those wiio had ever known her personally. Mile Mars, tho cele brated French tragedienne, only at tained the zenith of her beauty and power between forty and forty-five. At that period the loveliness oflier hands and arms especially was cele brated throughout Europe. Tho fa mous Mine. Reeamier was thirty eight, when Burras was ousted from power, and she was without dispute declared to he the most bautiful wo men in Europe, which rank she held for fifteen years.” Exchange. Woman's charm ol ivecillc-work. There is something exquisitely pleasant and touching—at least, of a very sweet, soft and winning effect-- in this peculiarity of needle-work, distinguishing men from women. Our own sex is incapable of any such by-play aside from t lie main business of life; but women—be they of what earth I v rank they may, however gift ed with intellect, or genius, or endow ed with artful beauty have always some little handiwork ready to till up the tiny gap of every vacant moment. A needle is familiar to the lingers of them all. A queen, no doubt, plies it on occasions; the woman-poet can usoit as adroitly as her pen ; the wo man’s eye that has discovered anew star turns from its glory to send a polished little instrument, gleaming along tho hem of her kerchief, or to darn a causal flaw in her dress. And they have the advantage of us in this respect. The slender thread of silk or cotton keeps t hem united with the small, familiar, gentle interests of life ; the continually operating influ ences do much for the health of the character, and carry off what would otherwise be a il.ingerous accumula tion of morbid sensibility. A vast deal of human sympathy runs along this electric line, stretching from tho throne to the wicker chair of the humblest seamstress, and keeping high and low in a species of common union with their kindred beings. Me thinks it is a token of healthy and gentle characteristics when women of accomplishments and high thoughts love to sew, especially as they are never more at homo with their hearts, than when so occupied. —Hawthorn ’ “Marble Fawn." • -o- - It is only by thinking that a man can know himself. Yet ail other know legs without this is ignorance. Not a glance merely, but much close examination will be requisite, for the forming of a true opinion of your own powers. Ignorance and self con ceit always tend to make you over rate your personal ability— asa slight degree of knowledge may make a timip mind pass upon himself too humble a judgement. It is only by thinking, and much impartial ob seving, that a man can discover his real disposition. A hasty temper only supposes itself properly alive; an Indolent iridulger imagines he is I active as any one; bnt by close and severe examination each may dis cover something nearer the truth. r. ,i watt. j. a. walker. cuas. h. watt.
