A YVoi'tl to Young Wive.-.
A widowed woman in middle life
was once asked by a friend, if she
should ever marry again? "No,"
she replied, in all candor and with
no traces of bitterness, "I am too
old to learn to live with another
man." She recognized the fact that
there were peculiarities ol character
and disposition in every one that
required an especial education as
one went aloug to make life har
monious. Perfect adaptability can
not be expected from those who had
been brought up in widely-differing
homes and spheres oftentimes.
Young ladies brought up on novels
make no account of this fact, hence
much ot the disappointment aud,
perhaps, bitterness of spirit which
arises when the fact dawns upon
them that tne beloved one is only a
common-place mortal with tniny
failings, like her father and brothers
and uucles, or even herself.
Take it for granted that there will
be objectionable points of character
or manner that are a real trial. But
do not take it too much to heart.
Above all bury the fact in the secret
depths of your soul, rather than
speak of them to others. Nothing
spreads faster than the whisper that
a young wife is dissatisfied with her
husband. A prairie fire cannot keep
up with it. And trifles light as air
are magnified as they sweep along,
until you would be astonished at the
results. You have gained nothing
and lost much. But a woman of
cheerful tact aud a loving heart can
educate a young man into almost
any style ahe chooses. Sulking aud
fretting will never do it, but a brave,
true heart and steady persistence
will make over a character marvel
ously. I have seen it done more
than once, not the less effectively
because the work weut on all un
consciously. That was the beauty
of it. Dear girl, if you fiud John is
not the ideal the novels pictured
him, you can mould him into some
thing a great deal better, and at the
same time establish yourself as queen
of a true heart, a sphere wide en
ough to satisfy even an ambitious
woman.
Do not give yourself too much
distress over trifles that may be un
important, though not exactly to
your mind. Allow to each person
a certain amount of individuality.
Often those most intolerant of these
things in others are those of the
most marked peculiarities them
selves. Differences of early train
ing make a marked difference in
habits, which may be a source of
much discord if you only give it full
play. But a better way is to pass
over in silence what cannot be rem
edied, and not waste too much sen
timent over it. People can be very
happy iu each other's society, where
love reigns, even though they are
very unlike in many respects.
You will need to learn the art of
living harmoniously, with almost
any man of character sufficiently
marked to be of any force iu "the
world. An energecic, efficient char
acter will have its angles. Learn
to dwell more on the good traits
thau to be alwaj'6 searching with a
microscope for the little failings.
"Jleubtir in Arthurs Magazine.
An Indiana farmer giyes his meth
od of raising the small white navy
bean, and finds it a remunerative
crop. He says : 'I plow the ground
as early in the spring as possible,
letting the ground rest in this con
dition until I am done planting
corn; aud then I plow it again, and
harrow and roll it until it is well
pulverized. Then I take a two
horse whcatJRII tup every
other hole,id set the jfo to sow
three pecksfbf wheatia fire', fa, I
then drill in the heansTTkjBfffllTi'ng
wheat. It wilPtake about half a
bushel of seed beans to the acre.
Now the work is done till harvest
time. The beans need no cultiva
ting. Poor land is the best for
beans. Rich land causes them to
grow too much iu the vines, and so
bear but few beans. Five acres will
produce one hundred and forty
bushels. One hundred bushels of
clean beans will bring iu market,
$1 and $1.50 per .bushel.
The Scientific American thinks it
a pity that babies have not a market
value like hogs. A death rate among
the pigs, less than one-third the
death rate among children in our
large cities, moves the Government
to costly investigations of the cause.
and to diplomatic correspondence
with foreign nations, while pro
duce Exchanges get excited on the
subject, and all the newspapers join

by the thousand in New York and
other over-crowded cities, aud
scarcely any notice is taken of the
fact.
Snvc Your Papers.
Those who destroy their daily
paper when it has been read miss
one of the great uses of a good jour
nal. A daily paper is a history of
the world issued in daily parts. It
is the mo3t impartial history that
will ever be printed. It gives the
events of the twenty-four hours
preceding its appearance with the
faithfulness of a photograph. These
occurrences may be twisted by the
future historian into any shape that
may suit his purpose, but the daily
paper reflects, like a mirror, the
world's history of the day before.
The paper is also a history of your
state and.a complete local chronicle
of your city. - fittt
It is also a literary medium that'
gives the thoughts of the best minds
iu all countries aud on all subjects,
the latest achievements in science,
the record of travel in far off lands,
the world of discovery and adven
ture that is at once entertaining and
instructive, the latest literary and
poetic gems; in fact it gives every
thing that an intelligent reader may
desire. Who would think of pur
chasing such an encyclopedia of
knowledge in any other form only
to throw it away wheu read ? Those
histories, and Picturesque Europes
and Americas, and other classes of
periodical literature which are sold
at fifty cent 8 a part, are read, care
fully treasured and bound. Why
should not a good newspaper get
the same treatment? The volumes
at the end of the year wonld form
an invaluable local, state, and gen
eral history of that year which
would be a whole library in itself.
It is true that folio sheets, by reason
of their size of page, make an un
wieldy volume that is too bulky for
practical use, but this objection can
not be urged against those papers
of quarto 6hapc, where the year's
numbers can be divided into two
handsome volumes ofconvenientsize,
and therefore easily handled. One
volume a year is enough to make
the weekly edition, and the same
arguments that urge the preserva
tion of the daily have equal force
when applied to the weekly. So,
roador, spare this sheet, tear not a
single page; but keep each year
complete, a history of the ago.

Ralph Waldo Emerson, in a receut
number of the North American lie
view, has the following eloquent
passage:
There is no porter like gravitation,
who will bring down any weight
you cauuot carry, and if he wants
aid, knows how to find his fellow
laborers. Water works in masses,
sets his irresistible shoulder to your
mill or to your ships, or transports
vast boulders of rock neatly packed
in his iceberg 1,000 miles. But its
far greater power depends ou its
talent of becoming little, and enter
ing the smallest holes and pores.
By this agency, carryiug iu solution
elements needful to every point, the
vegetable world exists. Who are
farmer's servants? Who but geolo
gy, chemistry, the quarry of the air,
the water of the brook, the light
ning of the cloud, the plow of the
frost? Before he was born into the
field, the sun of ages soaked it with
light and heat, mellowed his land,
decomposed the rocks, covered it
with vegetable film, then with for
ests, and accumulated cubic acres of
sphaguuiu whose decays make the
peat of his meadow. The rocks
crack like glass by inequality of
contraction in heat aud cold, aud
flakes fall constantly into the soil.
The tree can draw on the whole air,
the whole earth, on all the rolling
maiu. The plant, the tree, is all
suction - pipe, imbibing from the
ground by its roots, from the air by
its twigs, with all its might.
Take up a spadeful or a bucket
load of loam ; who can guess what it
holds? But a gardner kuows that
it is full of peaches, full of oranges,
and he drops in a few seeds by way
of keys to unlock and combine its
virtues--lets it lie in sun and rain,
and by and by it has lifted into the
air its full weight in golden fruit.
What agencies of electricity, gravi
ty, light, affinity, combine to make
every plant what it is, aud in a man
lier so quiet that the presence of
those tremendous powers is uot or
dinarily suspected. Faraday said
that "a grain of water is known to
have electric relations equivalent to
a very powerful flash of lightning."
The ripe fruit is dropped at last
without violence, but the lightning
fell and the storm raged, and strata
were deposited and uptorn and bent
back, and chaos moved from beneath
to create and flavor the fruit ou
your table to-day.
The

Power tor
I think there can b3 no doubt that
the most potent power for good or
evil in our period of modern life is
the newspaper. Iu countries that
take to a monarchy it is the real
king, and in republics like this of
ours it is the real president, aud cit
izens aud subjects alike look to it
for inspiration and direction, as a
few of them, I imagine, ever look to
the Lord. That minister prays aud
praises aud preaches best who kcops
up the steadiest intimacy with some
good paper, because he is takeu out
side himself for his matter, and finds
uis heart going out toward the
whole living world in supplication
and thanksgiving, and that man
preaches best who, being well
grouuded in the old sacred writers,
watches this mirror of the passing
time, and so brings out of bis treas
ury things new and old. I believe
also that a great and good newspa
per is as sacred in its own way as
the bible. It has something in it of
the very present word of God to
man, and the very present word of
man lo God. Ofall places in the
world to be gnarded from a narrow,
bigoted and sectarian spirit, I put
the editor's sanctum first after the
church. So let us see to it that we
do our share to promote and con
serve freedom, and the course of the
great and good newspaper will be
that of the sun, which shineth more
and more unto the perfect day, and
the whole image will be of shining
gold. From a Sermon by Hubert
CoUyer.
V!p as Paper-Malcrs.
"Do you know that wasps are
wonderful paper-makers?" asked
one of our practical Massachusetts
paper-manufacturers the other da.
"They are," said he. "They make
real paper, just as truly as paper
makers. A wasp flies to a flower
and covers the front of its body all
over with the dust of the flowers.
This is moistened and mixed with
the wax which is -secreted ou the
surface of the body. Theu the wasp
flio3 away to an old fence, or other
piece of weather-worn wood, which
has a loose, fuzzy, fibrous surface
made so by exposure to the air, sun
and rain. The wasp rubs itself
upon this fibrous matter just as it
did upon the dust of the flower, and
a layor of it adheres to the body
and becomes mingled with wax in
the same way .
"Then away goes the wasp to the
nest which it is buildiug, places
itself just on the spot where it wants
the layer of paper to be, and .then
works itself up into a heat by a
furious buzzing of the wings, so that
the wax is moistened next to the
body, and the paper drops off in the
right place where it can be fastened
on. Its product is just as really
paper, according to the sense of the
word in manufacturing, as any which
comes from a paper-mill.
The FIoKKnp: of Children.
The Sentinel takes the broad
ground that no father has the right
to flog his child, much less any teach
er, that physical punishment of any
kind is barbarous that the parent
or teacher who inflicts it is a savage
to that extent, and that the sentiment
which upholds it is a relic of the
brutality of savagism. We know
of no more revolting sight than to
see a grown up man or woman flog
ging or otherwise causing physical
pain to a child, and that they may
do it, aud do it without the inter
vention of judge or jury, only serves
to enhance its innate brutality. The
pillory and whipping-post, had at
least this merit, that no one could
bo consigned to them without hav
ing been convicted by law of some
offense, but the parent or teacher is
both judge, and executioner. The
accused child has no counsel, no
advocate, often does not even know
what law it is accused of violating,
and if it ventures to put iu a miti
gating plea, it too often but aggra
vates its punishment." The school
room and the family circle are the
last ditches of tho infamous barbar
ity of flogging, and physical punish
ment, and helpless children are their
last victims. It is high time that the
ditches were taken, and the victims
released. Lemars Sentinel.
lie Accepted.
He gracefully accepted : "I as
sure you, gentlemen," said the con
vict upon entering the prison, "that
the place has sought me, and uot I
the place. My own affairs really
demanded all ray time and atten
tion, and I may truly say that my
selection to fill this position was au
entire surprise. Had I consulted
my own interest, I ehould have
peremptorily declined to serve, but
as I am in the hands of my friends,
I see no other course, but to sub
mit." And he submitted. Chicago
Times.
It was a Boston girl who asked :
"Why is it that two souls, mated in
the impenetrable mystery of their
nativity, float by each other on the
ocean currents of existence without
being instinctively drawn together,
blended and beautiful in the assimi
lated alembic of eternal love?" This
is an easy one. It is because butter
is forty-five cents a pound and a good
seal skin sacque costs as high as
.$500. The necessaries of life must
experience a fall in price before two
souls will readily bleud iu the assi
milated alembic aud so forth.
"Deacon," said the widow as she
gently stroked in a feliiio manner
the Maltese tabby that evidently lay
in her lap for that purpose, "don't
you long for spring, with its balmy
breath, its warm sunshine and its
gentle showers, which awakens
nature and puts life into everything
that has laid cold and dead during
the long winter, and brings every
thing up out of the cold, cold ground
into light and life?" "Well, hardly,
widow," responded tho old deacon,
"you know I buried my second wife
last fall."
The young man who hammers
his thumbnail this spring while put
ting down carpetp, or who is vio
lently caught under the chin by a
clothes-line wheu ho goes out in the
yard after dusk, should remember
that in the revised edition of the
New Testament the words have
been changed to 'hades' and 'con
demnation.' The Norristown Herald hopes the
time is near at hand when a patent
corn sheller, two threshing ma
chines, a bed quilt, a foot race, a
soap peddler and a horse trot, will
uot make one county agricultural
exhibition.
