And thus it was I answered :

You cannot jrlvc me yours , dear friend ,
Up tlioptcop hill our paths are Hot
In different ways to ono sure end.
What though with eagle glance upflxed
On heights beyond our mortal ken.
You tread the hroad sure stones of Faith
Jloro Ilnnly than do weaker men.
To each according to his stroncth ;

Let UB carve out a wider stair ,
A broader pathway through the snow.
And whcrf upon the froldcn crest
We stand at last together freed
From inlstH that circle round the base ,
And clouds that but obscure our creed.
W ° shall perceive that though our steps
Have wandered wide apart , dear friend ,
No pathway can be wholly wrong-
That leads unto ono perfect end. "

Jtlll Xjje't Jlcsoltttlon ; lj < tlnnt Tobacco and
How U Jlfjtiiltcil.
I have amiin renounced the pernicious
und terrible tobacco habit. Most every
year I quit smoking and lead a different
life for several weeks , and it is a pleas
ure that I would not forego. The joy
of busting a long-established habit and
asserting a manly independence of it ,
even for three weeks , is a good time.
Tobacco is a filthy weed that is , it is
poisonous and venomous plant this
week. It will be so until further notice.
I remember very well the struggle I had
to break off" last winter. The doctoi
said I never would have llesh enough 01
my bones to catch a shrimp if I didn'
stop the use of tobacco , so I stopped
For weeks I was uncertain whether !
would renounce my pipe or not. Ii
was a solace to me when I was lonely
it gave me much pleasure , and seemet
to me , after a stormy and tempestuous
career as postmaster , to be a very milt
sort of vice. But I wanted to get fat
so one day when Iwas over at Bootjack
Camp , I threw my pipe over into the
woods as far as the strength of a great
resolution could send it.
I can still remember how it wenl
hustling through the air , and how
went hustling through the air the following -
' ' ( lowing week , on my hands and kucss ,
hunting for it.
It was about those days that I rashly
resolved to keep a diary. It hardly
shows the marks of use , but I will sell
it at a reasonable price to any one de
siring an easy running diary , with a
7 > lace to stick a pencil when not in use.
I quote a few entries from the same :
Jan. 1 , 1884. Have resolved to quit
the use of touacco and to keep a diary
showing what I did each succeeding
day so that future generations may
know the inner life of a great man. I
also desire to keep a strict record here
of my various private expenses , so that
I may know from month to month
where my money has gone.
Jan. i ? . How gloomy everything
looks to-day. Made several New Year's
calls yesterday , I am told. In an un
guarded moment , perhaps , I did ; but it
was unintentional. I did not smoke ,
however , yesterday. I feel much bet
ter without tobacco in any form. Think
I am gaining llesh. I do not notice it
so much in my body , but my head and
feet are certainly much larger than they
were yesterday. How much more hap
py and light-hearted we are when out
from under the thralldom of an old vice
that has clung to us for years like like
vice , as it were. Paid iifly cents for a
pound of marshmallows to gladden the
children's hearts and while in a seal-
brown study on the way home , ate them
all. When I quit the use of tobacco I
notice that levant to eat everything I
see. Came neSr eating the infant class
o
at the Sabbath school yesterday.
Jan. 3. I am getting a little bit irri
table I notice , and several of my friends
have called my attention to it. A police
man last evening lirst mentioned it to
me down town. Guess we can fix it for
85 or S6. I shall have to get a new coat
and , perhaps , a new nose. I can not
tell yet as to the nose. When the swell
ing _ goes down so I can see over it bet
ter ishall be better able to judge. At
present it shuts out the landscape a
good deal and gives me a sinister ex-
pression.
Jan. 4 Went out Avalking in theY
woods to-day. The air was crisp and
frosty. I strolled over about where I
threw my pipe along in the latter part
of the year ' 83. I did not want the
pipe , and yet , when I found it , after
searching three or four hours , I felt a
secret thrill of pleasure. I do not know
why. I brought it home , thinking it
might be convenient for some one who
i had no pipe , and who might still be a
Y slave to the abominable habit. I have
in my mind a party who might thus be
beuefitted. He is a young man of great
promise , and none know him but to
love him , none name him bul to praise.
I will save the pipe for him. He will be
pleased and gratified. He is my wife's
first husband.
When I started out I announced in
this volume that I would quit the use of
tobacco and keep a diary. I shall con
tinue to do so , making , however , a
slight change in the arrangement , by
which I shall keep the tobacco and quit
the use of the diary. This diary is no\v
for sale. Smoking tobacco taken in I
exchange. No addional charge for the
four days1 work already done on the
work.

The ether day , while Major Dodridgc
was sitting in his doorynrd , the mite
opened and a strange looking man has
tily approached.
"Is this Major Dodridge ? "
"Yes , sir. "
"Of tire Eighth Arkansaw during the
war ? "
"Yes , " beginning to look Avith inter

"Don't yon remember me , major ? "
"No , I can't place you. "
"Take a look at me , " shoving back
his hat.
"Don't remember that I ever saw you
before. "
"I am Hank Parsons ! " exclaimed the
man , bracing himself as though he ex
pected the major to rush into his arms.
"Don't recall the name , " said the
major.
"Is it possible ? I did not think you
would ever forget me. I'll refresh your
memory. At Sliiloh , while the battle
was raging with murderous fury , I
found you lying on the Held shot
through both legs. I took you on my
back and carricdyou to a spring in the
shade. Now don't you recollect me ? "
Let me see , " mused the major. "I
remember of having been wounded ; but
I can't recall the fact , if it be a fact , of
any one taking me to a spring. "
"This is indeed strange , " said the dis
appointed man. "I looked forward to
meeting you with such anticipates of
a warm greeting , Well , well , the world
has indeed reached its ungrateful age.
The occurrence is as fresn to my mind
as though it had taken place yesterday.
I gave you a drink of whisky and - "
What ! " exclaimed the major ,
springing to his feet. "Gave me a
drink of whisky ! Oh , yes , I remember

Senator's' Set retarlcs.
E. D.York in Phonographic Monthly.
There seems to be some misapprehen
sion as to the character of these ap
pointments. They arc not always sten
ographers , nor even generally so.
Many senators have appointed their
sons , their -nephews , or other relatives.
In almost every case it has been some
person from the senator's home , or some
one near him whom he judged suitable
for such a confidential relation. Very
few of them know more than the short
hand alphabet. They are not appointed
for that , but because they can be useful
in many other ways , looking after the
senator's papers and running his
numerous errands about the city , and
ut the departments.
This it will be seen could have , and
in fact has had little or no eflect upon
the stenographic profession at the cap-
itol. Naturally also the suggestion as
to any "test , " when the character of
the employment is considered , will be
manifestly impracticable. Quite a large
number of shorthand amanuenses
find a more or less steady employment
taking letters during the sessions of
congress , but I do not' think their field
has been seriously encroached on by
this resolution , as many who have made
appointments under it never would J
have employed any one if they had to
pay for it out of their own funds , and a
others who are rich employ a shorthand
writer just the same , and appoint some
friend to a virtual sinecure under this
resolution.
t This explanation will relieve the
minds'of any hopeful stenographic as
pirant , unless he be the favorite of some
senator , present or prospective , for
these places are only for personal pro
teges , and not open for general public
competition. Of course , there may be
now ami then a sporadic case of ap
pointment for shorthand ability , but , as
the saying goes , the exception only
proves the rule.
