IIott fair they were, my darlings twain.
Who walked adown. the rrnssy lane
That snitry Anjrust day:
Unconscious of the gra- ious charm
That floated round them, nrm-ln-arin'
They wandered on their way.
One -wore ner ra-ren tresses low,
Closs-braidcd o'er a brovr of snow,
Like 8oni jfrand Roman dame:
nera were tlioae luminous, large e"yea
From whose dark depths stran-je gleams arise
And break in Midden flame'.
Around lier sister's pentler faca
The brown hair rippled, tender grace
Was in her form and look :
A wild-rose color on her cheek,
Crown, loving eyes, contented, meek,
And clear as summer brook.
I sat beneath a shady tree,
And heard their lau-rhter floating free
. Through idle, happy hours:
I saw them j-fatlier by the way
The strn-rglin-r clusters, sweet and gay.
Of honeysuckle flowers. -
I watched them weave their acented apoil
In caprer histe with playful toil.
And laughter-brimming eyes;
They twined it on-my fade I brow,
Ah, Heaven! I have that garland now,
A sacred, mournful prize!
Was it because they were my own,
I fancied even their lightest tone
More sweet than other sound?
Was it because I gave them birth.
1 thought that nowhere in God's earth,
Could fairer things be found?
Was it but doting mother's love?
Or were my dntlihgs fair above
The playmates rif their time?
I knew-not the'n, lior know I now;
It is so many years ago,
They scarcely reached their prime.
Ent thU I know, 'twixt them and me
Rolls yet the awful tideiess sea
That ptrts their vorld from this;
And well I know that where they ara
There is no need of sun or star.
Nor need of mother's kiss.
Rut o'er my honeysuckle wreath,
My wearied heart h will oflcn breathe
A prayer for tlio.se bright bowers.
Where I nny see my daughters stand.
Each holding for me in her hand
Heaven's amaranthine flowcrsl

Suthleiiiy tfoTtn Uaymoii'i was killed,
and in six months his weakly wile
followed him, leaving a 3-ycar-oid
boy an orphiin in the depths of pover
ty. John iiayniond was known to be
a lover of Aunt Polly's in her younger
dtys. Some s.iid they were parted by
n quarrel; othciv, that he was too
slow for her ambitious nature. How
ever it was sue manieu tne tlc.ieon,
and, a few years after, he married a
weak dependent woman, suited to his
e.T-v-iroinir nature.
It was a seven days' talk, when
Aunt Polly took John Paymond's boy
homo to her fireside, and did for him
ns if he was her son. Whether it was
because she really had an all'ection for
tlie boy, or bccui-c litlie John inher
ited both his fathers easygoing na
ture and hi. mother's weakness, no
one knew ; but she ".!4t along" with
tlie. boy, and brought him up in the
wav that he sIiotiliLiro i0 the aire ol
manliooti, and felt quite as proud f
him as though he had been her own.
Althottifh she intended him to have
her property she was very ambitious
for him; and, thoimh she had never
mentioned it she had her mind made
up as to who John's wife should be.
.Millie Y illiams was a relative ot
Aunt Polly's, an orphan, and lived
with an aunt in the home 2Jillic's la
ther had left her (Millie).
John and Jlillie had been playmates
throuirh childhood, and thought a
o-reat deal of each other; and, as Mil
lie had a firm well stocked. a:td a lit
tle sum on interest, Aunt Polly was
content to t ink it was sit, John and
Millie were together a grunt deal, and
many wie ones maided their heads in
their direction, and wondered if it
"was settled" between them. Put the
pretty musie teacher's little linger
was more to John than Millie and all
her possessions, and, as for Millie, the
you ic' Ir. Austen, who lived in the
city of Lincoln, lift' miles away,
thouo'ithe knew where her heart be
longed. Put John, the great coward
t hou rh the muic, teacher blushed ev
ery time siic cauii'iit. t uc rieat, loini
look in his eve, iid no wonl; wiIl
aware that hadAunt Poll v known what
lav in his heart there would h ive b.v ii
trouble for him. And Millie, sen-ible
girl, chose to let her doctor work his
own wav in ti e world, "to sec tne
still' l e was made of." "He is smart.
and his father well-to-do," she said,
but I Lever could ma rrv a man who
did not make the best of his own
ids." Brave Millie! if there were
oidy'more s-enihle women, how much
belter oif the World would be.
Put Aunt P-dly be i-tn t think
tliins li'id one Iiu- r:. She was
geitinp; old. ntid Ji.hn ouirht to have
Some one to " ' re i'or Itiii!.''' uiol jst
haps this advice would apply to her
self as well, She had "sot down Iter
foot" inuuiucrah'c tiu.es before John,
that no pretty-faced girl, with airy
graces and line ways, who only cared
for nice clothes and plenty of ease,
should step into her shoes. She must
handle the kitchen kettles as well as
play the piano, and John, though he
continued to glance into the music
teacher's eyes, and accompany her
u me from church on the sly, and
hold her hand longer than was need ful
at imrling, never dared to whisper his
love.
One morning Aunt Polly said :
"John, I have been thinking you ought
to get married. I am trotting old, and
I want to sec a good wife at Your ta
ble."
"Yes, mother,' said John, meekly.
but very much surprised.
"I have lx.'Cii watching you, John,
tiiilnown to you," continued Aunt
Polly, "and havo somo idea in which
direction your eyes have turned, and
think with a litile training she might
do. She must pickle tripe and knit
stockings, as well as make tidies, for I
wont have any fine ladies moping
about my liou-e," Aunt Polly said for
the thousandth tunc. "Have you cveri
thought seriously ol her John?"
"I yes no. Well, ortre or twice,
perhaps. I was afraid" and John
labored.
"You were afraid shovflould not suit
me. Was that it John?'
"Yes, niothen"
"And wouldn't vou

I didn't like, John?"
"I don't know. I think

'You have alw ays becdift- good boy,
John, and you never will regret it.
You may ask her as soon as you
please, and we will sec if she can't be
trained into making you happy?" nev
er once thinking it possible that the
lady in quest ion j or any other could
have any objection to John er the
training that was to result in his hap
piness. And, John, bless you! he was
as happy now as he could be, with the
greatest barrier to his winning his
sweetheart broken. And, for her
housekeeping qualities, if she had set
before hi in then, a dish of fried sole
leather, he would not have known it
from tiie best tripe he had ever tasted.
Aunt Tolly, atter this,' dropped in
to see Millie quite oflcn of an after
noon, and watched her closely. She
offered many suggestions to Millie
and gave her ideas of things in gen
eral, and was forever talking about
John, until Millie tired of John's
name, and I am afraid was rude
enough to wish Aunt Polly would
stay at home and attend to her own
affairs.
One day John awkwardly stammered
out his happiness to Aunt Polly. He
had told his love and had been accept
ed, but "the day" had not been ap
pointed yet. The next afternoon
Aunt Polly went over'to sec Millie,
and after awhile asked :
"When are you going to leave the
farm, Millie?"
"Why, I have never thought of
leaving" it at all. .This was my father's
home and mine always," Millie said,
surprised.
"Oh, you know, that can't be.
You will leave it for a husband some
day."
Millie looked at her Aunt Mary re
proachfully, as if she had been telling
talcs, ami said decidedly :
"1 intend my husband, if lever get
one to settle here, Aunt Polly."
Aunt Polly looked severely at Mil
lie, and not a little alarmed. .
Her John come here to live and
leave her. She said decisively, "Mil
lie, we may as well understand each
oilier. There are several things about
you not intended to make your future
husband happy. You are sellish and
much too independent. You have
had your own way until you don't
care for any opinion but your own.
You are neither a careful nor saving
housekeeper. You can embroider
finely, but 1 doubt if you could mend
a pair of socks neatly. You play the
piano and draw well, but you have
yet to handle the skillet carefully.
As for living here that is all nonsense.
A wife goes with her husband; be
sides John would never consent to
such an arrangement, even if I would."
All this time Millie's eyes opened
wide, ns she gazed in astoni-hment on
Aunt Polly, thinking she had sudden
ly gone iii vii-c, mid when she closed,
Mi'll.c said with spirit :
"Well. Aunt Polly, if my future
husband is not satisfied with me, he i
privileged to look elsewhere for a
wi:e. Has he been complaining to
you? And, pviv, why may I not ha ve
iny own way, "and "follow my own

But, A tint
l olly, why is John dragged in every
throe stctuid? I don't see what you
and Ji iin have to do with my living
where and doing as I please. By your
ct.-i:: oi'siuioii I siioiild think that you
lucent John to marry me."
"Millie Williams, have you been en
eourauiiii'.Joiin just tor tiie sake oi
fluttering your vanity, and intend to
ici'usehini at this late hour?"
''I have never encouraged John at
all. We are like brother and sister,
t:nd I don't believe he cares forme any
other wav."
"And can you sit there and Ray that,
when John told me this morning you j
had consented to be his wife?"
"Aunt Pollv! Why, I never con- j
sen to-to any such thing. John never
asked me, and 1 could never marry him
if he had, tor I have been engaged to
Dr. A-istcn for a year. There is some
mistake.
Aunt Polly stared at Millie a mo
ment, then caught up her bonnet and
hurriedly disappeared down the path.
She entered tne sitting-room of her
home, where Johu was reading, and

"John, didn't, you tell me that Mil

your con-ent to my asking her. lou't
you remember mother?"
"On, good B. ii:" remarked Aunt
Polly, which was, by the way, the
most unbecoming remark she made
ab.eit the ntl'iir.
The end of it all was that Axmt
Polly called on John's music teacher,
but Whether it was because Jennie
was a paragon, or because Aunt Polly
couldn't help herself, as she always
prided herself on her wonl, no one
ever knew; but Jennie was accepted
without a criticism from Aunt Polly,
though she possessed nothing in iiio
world but a tender heart, nor was sh
siven the promised training Aunt
Polly thought so conducive to John's
happiness; and, as a fitting finale to
every true story, they lived ns happily
as mortals usually do in this world."

which is how we tspont Christmas eve
The occasion was celebrated by tiie
Louisville Union Sunday school aftei
a plan suggested by the worthy Sup't.
Mr. B. A. Calvin. Through ihe kind
ness of Mr. Glover the Sunday school,
ihe Baptist and Meihodist have been
iiuaranteed tht use of his hall for the
winter, and at one end of this hall a
large enciined table was placed a sd on
it whs laid all the jjif'ts which were
eiven by parents lo their children ami
by one friend to another instead of the
.-Miiiday School collecting m niey ate;
making the donation.-. The forme,
pian is far more satisfactory to evi r
one.
The table was well filled with pres
ents of every grade, many of whi- I,
were valuable. .The decorations wen
very tastily arranged, forming an arch
over t i lame wiien tne wl'.ole was iii
up w iih candles, which made a bril
liant and handso.m; sight. The roo;n
was well lighted, wanned and seated
an-l every one was comfortable and ail
p onounced it the best Christmas tree
wtt ever had here.
The ceremonies began at seven, were
opened by the Louisville Cwrr.ct band
followed bv singing of part of the
school. A duett or two was played on
the organ, but the crowni.ig piece of
the evening was the singing of "Sing
:t from the Heart," by five little girls
this was executed in a most simple yet
toochitig manner and brought a show
er of applause.
We have since learned that there
were ether little ones on the pro
gramme, we!l prepared with their lit
tle pieces to speak and sing, but were
for some unexplained reason cut oil by
the master of ceremonies. '
The most unpleasant feature of ihe
evening and that which everybody
looked forward to be the best was th
distribution of presents. From the
coianu n ,-ing to the ending there was
one continued state of confusion anil
disorder occasioned by the rapid call
ing of names and cairying of the pres
ents to their respective owners.
3 The ;;u lience was dismissed at S:30,
P. M., by a piece from the band.

As much nice fall weather r.3 there

to do, only to haul wood and do chores.
We presume those that are not done
hushing will hawe some pretty cold
lingers. Corn buvers from the other
side of tlie river have been over, bay
ing and contracting for corn to be de
livered at Bartlett. Iowa. They are
paying from 25 to 20 cents pr bushel

has frozen over there has been a larg?
amount of corn delivered on the ether

there will be a very large amount f "it

Exposition op 1S70, Wandcir'g
through the United States section of
this truly wonderful Exhibition, hy
perorrsamcnted and over displayed a
the luost of it is, I came upon an ele
gant glass case, whose modesty was
the more conspicuous from its neigh
bors' finery, surmounted by the mol
o Diguis Priemia and displaying, in
neat, packages, the medical prepon.
tions of the house of Dr. J. C. Ater
ii; Co., Lowell, Mass.
I was aware of the world wide re
putation of this eminent firm, for tho
character and quality of their goods,
arid.iemcEiber well their agents in
London, Messrs. Newberry, iu S(.
Paul's Churchyard. Having- a lei
sure hour, I determined to examine
the contents cA this case, niysrlf. s.nd
I was surprised to sec the delicato
perfection to which they have brought
their home hold remedies. I wan
chagrined at the reflection that, while
we have rt home tlie most skilful
a:id, pre-eminently, the best physici
ans in the world, the se Yankee doc-,
tor distance us so fa. in the line of
popular medicines for family u?e.
They have the sharpness to take ad
vantage of the higl scientific discov
eries among us and make pills and
potion as palatable a3 they arc aslu
tary. I was told In- a leading drug
gist in Philadelphia, that Dr. Ayek'p
manufactory was the largest in Amer
ica, giving employment to hundreds '
I niut go to Lowell and see it, oa my
way home. Corres ondeaco of ib?"
