The oM wife stood at her garden gate The eve of St. Valentine's Day : fehe watched for the post, that like a Fate Just stopped and then galloped away Just stopped, and then. In tne waning light, Passed over the hill and out of her bight. Her grandchild tujged at her shawl and gown, And her daughter called, sweet and clear, "Mother, come in, for the cakes are brown, And the boys and father are here." "Ah. ye." she said, "and the ni?ht Is cold; I quite forgot that I am growing old." At breakfast lay at the father's place A letter as white aa mow; He looked at it with a curious face. And said, "Xow I want to know!" The boys all smiled ; tbe mother grew O'er face and throat a crimson hue. . lie opened, the dainty letter then. And lol in i t3 satiny fold Was painted rose and forget-me not, And lilies with hearts of gold: And, uuder the whole, jut one sweet Hue "Forever, forever, thy Valentine." lie touched the note with a tenfler care, And he went to bis sweet wife's side ; He strok'-d with Iiis hand her snow-white hair, And he kied her with loving pride, Siyin i, i;h smiles and misty tears, "My Vale u tine through fifty years." "O bovs," lie said, with youthful pride, "After fifty years of life. If you rind in your home, and by your side, A fair and faithful wife. Count your life lucky, as I count mine. And loyally kiss your Valentine." Harper's Weekly. Physical Training for 'Woman. Leavenworth Times.! It n not 'less mental training that women needJihut more physical. There are few women wb have graduated from any educational institution, whether high-schcol, seminary, or college, who will not confess to tbe disastrous nervous system that has been made by their course of study. Uut it is all because the physical system has been kept in a ttato of comparative repoee, while tha mind has labored incessantly. The boy, while he i3 coins: through school and college, plays foot-ball and bafe-ball, runs foot-races und has walking matches and rope-pulli, takes lonjj tramps over fields and hills, row?, and practices in tho gymnasium. If a girl goes boating some one elio wields the oars; she can't walk inorothan a mile or two per day; she stand 3 or sits about and witches the gim and races of the boys. All through her school or College course her brain is kept busy, her nerves at high tension, and her musclea lax and practically unexerciied. The result is and must be development mentally, retrogression physicalAnd not only for her individually, but through her for a large part of the Nation. It U true that there are a few Colleges that furnish gymnastic trair.ing for women student?, but they are very few and do not largely effect the general health ot women. It is onlv by regular and intelligent exercise that boy or girl can undergo the severe mental labor required by the College course, or be successful in any menial labor afterward without great physical detriment. As a Nation we are fast coming to be the victims of nervous dUeases of every sort; but it is only because we refuse our jaded .nd over-worked bodiea the relaxation and exerciie they imperatively demand. "William Cullen "iJryant'a eighty -four years' of constant labor were due Krgely to his hour of gvmnastics each morning. The schoolgirl ju9t as much as tho Echool-bjy neecU regular gymnastic training, daily exercise, and much of it, in the open air, on foot, on horseback and in tho boat. And herein lies the key to the success of the education of women. Unless its advocates see this and provide for the physical training of women, tho result of tho movennt will be mora detrimental than beneficial. Wasted Forces. Harper's Bazar. The men who toil three hundred and thirteen days in the year, and pass tho remaining fifty-two in thinking tow to render that toil moro productive of money for wife and children to spend; tho wives who grow haggard in makirg house, clothes, and table as tasteful, attractive, and comfortable as twice their income should do, for the sake of husband, sons, and daughters; the girls at home who worry over small means, spend golden hours at the sewing-machine, and scrimp and rave and labor, that father 'and mother may see them as fine as their richer neighbors-all these are thrifty, industrious, and unselfish, and their virtues are almost vicious. For the immense force expended in these laborj of Sisyphus leaves them sapless and poor. There is no time or room in their honied lives for the simple joy of existence, for pure fun and frolic, good- humor, and all the cheap delights of cheerfulness. Let us admit, for tho argument's sake onlr. that cultivated men and women can not keep ineir piace in society unless tney coniorm to a certain standard of dress, equipage, and surroundings. That exclusion would simply be so much the worse for society. For the exile?, being numerous and agreeable, howover behind the mode, would soon have o charming a coterie of their own that society would imperii it sixteen-button gloves m a frantic knocking for admission. But we think the proposition untenable. It has already become fashionable to live within one's means. It will presently be thought very bad taste to seem to spend beyond them, as most "good managers'' now -do. If all these working fathers and contriving mothers and stitching daughters -would give up now and forever the effort to appear richer than they are, the wearing labor of '"dropping buckets into empty wells, and growing old in drawing nothing tip," there would be such a saving of strength for the real uses of time as would tffcnst'orm their thin and pinched existence into exuberant and creative lite.. ' There ü enough courage, fidelity, patience, industry, thrift, perseverance, energy, self-facrificc, conscientiousness, abroad in the world to insure its welfare and happiness. "What it lacks is that good judgment which lorbids virtue to run to waste. And this is a defect which common-sense should hasten to repair. A Young Silk Culturlat. Philadelphia Ledger. Miss Nellie Kositer of this city is perhaps the youngest silk raiser in the United States, perhaps the youngest teacher of sericulture. She is a girl of fifteen, who haa been In the business for a year and a half. It is rather a profitable business when teaching is combined with it, as appears from Mias Roisiter's account. Silk-worm egg3 are worth $ j an ounce and the worms

bricj; $1 a hundred. So long as tbe ?i!k-ria-ing business is a curiosity there is quite a demand for banks of tha reeled ti!k, untwisted, as specimens. There is alto tho beginning of a private business demand, a3 these are used in embroidery and in the manufacture of artificial flowers. The bright young ladj teacher had on e xhibition yesterday a creamwhite lilv with buds of glistening yellow, a

beautiful piece of work, which was to be sent to Mrs. Garfield. It seemed to tho reporter that it could scarcely be hand made, so delicate and pure were the shining petals, but he was informed that the process was the same as that employed in making "hair work. ''There are -seven natural shades," Miss Ilossitcr went on to fa), "in cocoonsgreen, a brimstone yellow, straw, ealao.i, lemon, orango and white all of them making good eüects to work with." What do you sell the hanks for?" "From 1 to $2 a hank; I rool fifty cocoons in each hank, bat some are liner than others." 'flow "many cocoons go to a pound?" "Weif, SÖO of some kinds and 800 of others. Or course, it pays much better to sell the banks ia this way, singly than to the manufacturers. It depends on the reeling what a pound of silk will bring. Frora $3.00 to $4.50, and for very good as high as $3.50 a pound the manufacturers pay for it." "And you go away troro. the city to give lessons?"" "Yes; last summer I tsught in a school in Medina, and this 'summer am engaged to give lessons in another school near "tho city an Orphan Asylum." Such business knowledge and energy as this girl displays would do credit to any man, and she is a very modest littla body, with all her knowledge, though entirely self-possessed in answering questions, as a teacher should be. She was in short frocks at the State Fair held here in 1830, when, a3 a pupil of the 6ilk school, her case of coCoons took a diploma fooi the State Agricaltural Society, and many visitors to the fair will remember tte intelligent cmia wno was able to explain the process 01 siiK-reei ing in tho section occupied by the schuol.

QTho invalid of the Boston Post draws the following beautiful definition of justice from a simple incident of domestic life: 'We don't want Guiteau hung. The sentence is too light.

Garfield, wrote, in 1877: "It will bo a proud day when an Administration Senator cr Representative, who is in good standing in his party, can say, a Thomas Hughes said during his recent visit to this country, that though he was on the most intimate terms with the members of his own Administration, yet it wa not in his power to secure the removal of ihs humblest clerk in the Civil Service of his Government." A young attorney-a day or two since having delivertd himself of a speech in the Superior Court, asked the clerk if he could smoke in the room. "Yes," wa3 the reply. A pipe was brought out, and tha gentleman waa busi'.y encaged in building smoke-col-umds in the air, when the Judge laid a 5 fine upon him. 4I thought you said I could arnoke here?" inquired he indignantly of the Clork as boon as he got his breath. "I did," was the reply, as that bu?y officer proceeded with his minutes; J'didn't you smoko'f" From the Courier-Journal of Febuary 10, 1982: "A chemist of this city was showing to some friends yesterday a relic which he considers precious. It was a lump of what is known as sugar, which had been kept in his family for eighty years. Great quantities of this singular sub tan co were once used in this country, but samples of it are now to be found only in the richest museums. It is said to be very sweet. Tho combination of glucose and white earth now used for sweetnlng purposes would have been rejected by our forefathers, but the present generation cara little for sweeU."

THE OLD STORY.

BY ANNA B. HESSEL. I ws wecjliiSt and weary, And the LUhl wts loni; and droary, Endles seeming to my call i heart LouKiiitf fur tho inni-alng light. Pain and woe full tore were o'er mo. And the shaded lamn before me Seemed to mock my titter yeamins, Long ago, one winter night. Ti 1! my mother's soft enroling Fell upon me line a blowing. As sno told of One wno saUcred ititb-r throCHon tlvrjr: Till I hu htd my neb and crying, oa her gentle bosom lying,While he told ire of the Savior And His death upon the tree. Told me o'er and o'er the story Of the Christ child an 1 His glory, Of the Khepherds' wondrous vision And the star of prouiiMe bright: Of the humble fched and manger Cradling the holy stranger: Of the aucels. praises in Loug Ufc'o, one winter uiht. Stiller grew my heart's quick beitla J As she told me of ihe meeting At the lomti, one sabbAtti morning. Of the auiteia fair and bright. Then, st last, the story ended, Cp to liod a prayer ascended Ah, It nil cones bark no plainly To my ievered brain to-night: As upon my couch I lanjruish, Soothingly'npoii ray anguish. Luce n Fiar that break the darkness. Or a ray of merning light, Comc the thoupht of that sweet stor of the Christ-child and His jtloty That was told to hush ia y wailing Long ago, one winter night. Ah! ray burden seemeth lighter. And the darkness groweth brighter; Tain andrrief no longer o'er me Their dark wines of sorrow can; Christ, my King, forever relpueth. And my soul no more complaiaeth: Chrl-t hath raised tbe veil of shtdowa r'rom my weary heart at last. Bos to a Transcript. PLEASANTRIES. Lives cf resthetee all remind u We can make our raiment fine.

It 19 reported that Pasteur is to visit Bor deaux to study yellow frver in tho lazaretto in order to find out whether inoculation will afford protection against the disease. The following ia said tobe a sure-cure for ring-worm: "Thymol, 1 to 2 parts; chloroform, 8 parte; clive oil, 24 parts, mix. The thymol destroys the fungus, the oil prevents irritation and rapid evaporation, while the chloroform facilitates the absorption of the active ingredient by acting, on the seba ceous glands." An inventor in Hartford Conn., has pat ented a belt which is made of iron wire, the selvages being brass and copper. The weft is ot cotton several threads being woven in without being twisted together. A double fabric is made, between which, or inside of which, a number of single heavier wires are inclosed to take the tensile strain of the belt. The fine water power in Warren, White and Overton Ceuutio. Tenn., is now being utilized to a great extent by the erection of saw-mills to cut tho valuable wtlnut and poplar timber with which that section of the State abounds. Several more mills of large capacity are now being erected in Warren and Overton, most of them to be run by water-power. The Medical Brief gives the following cure for chapped hands: Take of pure bay rum or glycerine each one part, quinco eeed jelly two pirts, mix. A few drops of oil of rose or any other perfume may be added to the bay rum before mixing. When diluted with rain water it forms aa excellent drepr ing for the hair. The jelly is made by adding two drachms of quince seed to two pints of water, boiled down to one pint

filtered hot and allowed to cool. Hor certain skin diseases a cr&chm of boracic acid may be chsolvei in each ounce of glycerine

before mixing. An experienced mechanic write: "Ihave tried chalk, soap, treacle and rosin, to prevent slipping of belt?, but I like oiling the belt on the inside ju-t before I stop on a Saturday; it preserves bells ard beats any. thing I hav? tried yet., A well known antiquary has discovered in an Athenian monastery a papyrus which is nothing leg than a MS. of ibe Iliad written about the year Ö0S B.

Various cases of poLoning from the use of perfumes havo boen reported in recent English journals. In one instance a little girl had bought ome heliotrope perfumo at a bazar, aod had applied it on her face. T his inuscd a Testicular eruption, swelling itching, and, in fact, erysipelas, which lasted for some. The scent was made with some of the products ot coal tar, and cot with the odoriferous principles of plants, thus acquiring its irritating properties. Laurtnt has found that any ordinary good 6iivered glass mirror cf any thickness may bo rendered magical by heat. A simple way f doing this is t j heat a brass tube and apply the end of it to the silvered fa . . Ifsthe surff.ee of tho nirrior is opposite a screen the section of tho tube is reproduced in white; if it is turned away from the jerecn the image (which is seen only after the tube is removed) is dark. A cold tube may be used with hot mirrcr. When rubber plates are used for making connections between steam and other pipes leaking of joints may be preventad by using a cement prepared by dissolving shellac in ammonia. Tho pulverized cum shellac is soaked in ten timos its weight of strong ammonia, when a slimy mats is obtained, which in three or four weeks will become liquid without the use of hot water. This fastens well ooth to the rubber and to lh metal or wood, and becomes by volatilization of the ammonia hard and impermeab e to either gaes or fluids. RELIGIOUS INTELLIGKCK AND UK NT. INCI. The income of Talmago's Tabernacle for 1SS2 is estimated at $2-3,000. Six healthy Baptist Churchcj have grown out of one at Minneapolis, which wus or ganized in lisoi. St. Paul. Minn., is to have a $50,000 Christian Seminary for young ladies. It n to provide unscctarian education of the highest order. Although more than half the Baptist Cnurches m the Mate ci .Now lork report no baptisms for 1831, the 874 which do report foot up a total of 3,533 persons baptized. The Evangelical Church at ßadon Baden has, by the death of an old lady's parrot, twenty year3 after h?r own demise, got the bequest which was contingent on that bird's decease. The Salvation Army has taken the old skating rink at Itegcnt-circus, London, at a rental of $5,000 a year. The building will seat 3,000 persons, and it will be oponed by -an exhibition of trophies" in the shape of a gathering of ex-convicts, thieves, drunkard3, roughs, and bad characters of both sexes who have be?n reclaimed by the Army. At the mass in the Pantheon of Rome in a suffrage of the soul of Victor Emmanuel last month the music cjniuted of a new piece composed by Terziani, sung without accompaniment. The choir numbered 180, and comprised ninety tenors and basses, sixty two contraltos and sopranos, boys from various Academies, and twenty-eight Professors of music, mostly attached to the different basilicas and Churches of Rome. Bishop Coxe, of the Protestant Episcopal diocese of Western New York, has written a letter in which he warns his people against taking any religious paper published outside cf the diocese. This cuts off all the Episcopal papers but one or two, and all but one or two of other denominations. But the Bishop does not recognize any as religious sheet unices published by his own denomition. A few evenings since, at a revival meet ing, an invitation was given for ail those who desired an interest in the prayers of the Church to go forward and kneel aronnd the altar, whereupon a littie boy in the congregation arose and was about to go forward when he was deterred by hU father, who, knowing that the youth was not old enough to realize what he was about, would not accedo to his going. After Church was dismissed the boy was interrogated as to why he wanted to go to the anxious seat, and replied: "Why the preacher said tht all that was vaccinated should go forward 1" That settled it. Ashland Pres?. The Rev. Richard H. Cain is a colored man, and lie is a Bishop in tbe African Methodist Episcopal Church. His field of labor comprise Texas and Louisiana. He and his wife were traveling on a Texas rail road, and they sought to be admitted into a first-class car. Ihrs seemed to them but reasonable, as they had paid first-class fare. The conductor rudely ordered them into the other car, which was a combination of baggage car and smoker. For this indignity the Bishop has instituted a suit against the railroad company, fixing damages at $20,000. The Christian Recorder, which is the organ of the African Church, savs that this is an insult offered to the whole Church, and that if need be every member of that communion should come to Bishop Cain's help in order to carry tho case up to the highest Cocrt and secure justice. A singular accident befel a Scotch clergy man while preaching in a nonconformist chapel recently, lie had a vigorous style and showed himself zealously fervent in driving home to his interested hearers the solemn words and moral of his ?xU Hands and eyes were both brought into play in enforcing the "winced words" of the portly preacher, and now and again he would lean his whole weight on the reading-stand, gazing intently into the faces of his auditors to deepon the imprcsaion of Lis counsels. While ho was once thus gazing the audience were startled bv seeing tho reading-stand topple over the platform, followed headlong by the energetic preacher himself. Many rusted to his assistance, but, although the fall was one of about seven feet, the minister quickly regained his footing and at once returned to his place at the restored reading-stand. Before resuming the awkwardly interrupted discourse, however, tho preacher remarked, with a quaint 4,pawkiness" which the congregation seeme 1 to appreciate, that "those who leaned upon the Master would be better sustained than he had been while leaning upon the reading-stand . of His Eervant."

The French Abbe Maury was very fond of a joke, and during the days of the Reign of lerror, wnen everything "royal ' was proscribed, he frightened a poor furrier into changing the words under his sign of a tiger from "Koval Liger" to "National Tiger, But the populace thought this was a slur upon their principles, and half filled the poor man before he conid explain how he came to change it. A young man who was "left out" of Cleveland surprise party invited the young lady who was to be surprised to go with hira to the theater that evening, bhe did so. and the company which called on her, after waiting around well nigh unto Sunday morning, when the young lady came back with hiiu from the Theater, understood ex actlv what had become of that "surprise' when the two walked in together. It is asserted that the nutritiousness of apples has never been properly appreciated, and that they are far more nourishing than rofatoes. Cornish workmen say that thev can work better on baked apples than on potatoes. There is a dish in Cornwall called squash pie, made of mutton, with slices of potato, apple and onion, and, strange as it may seem to many, it is excellent. Corn wall is the country for meat pies, as the miners carry their dinners with them in that form. Mr. Henry E. Abbey has chartern! two palace cars for Madame Patti and Edwin Booth. For each of these he pays $30 a day, but his stars have their homes in them dur ing the entire trips. So convenient has this system become that the Messrs. Brooks & Dickson speak of buying a palace car out right lor the use of their attractions, and there is a proposition by which Brooks & Dickson aud Mr. Abbey would become half partners in another, .tirst-class stars are beginning to demand this convenience, it happened not a thousand miles from Wabash. An estimable Irish lady took her children to the photographer to have their likeness tuck." She said: "Me oldest b'y wurruks at the factory; wud you please put him in wid the rist of 'em?" The man who makes faces explained the impossibil ity of granting her request, and succeeded in producing a good negative of "the childers." The old Judy surveyed the picture with evident aslisfaction, but came back, after reaching the door, to say: "Mister, couldn't yez put nie in there wid the darlints?" A young New York farmer fell in love with a pretty young woman who came to make a vi.sit in his town, wooed and won her, insisting upon the ruarriags at bnce, to which she consented. A number of guests were invited, the'two were married, all the young men in tbe neighborhood insisting upon kissing the bride, which made the new bridegroom very indignant indeed. She made her escape at once into an adjoining room, and the bridegroom has not seen her since at least, he has not been able to recognize her. In fact, she was a smooth-faced boy, and the courtship, wedding and all were the "make-up" of what bis comrades were pleased to call a practical joke. fees of Doctor. The fee of doctors is an item that very many persons are interested in just at present. We believe the schedule for visits is $3.00, which would tax a man confined to his bed for a year, and in need of a daily visit, over $1,000 a year for medical attendance alone! And one single bottle of Hop Bitters taken in time woufd pave the $1,000 and all the year's sickness. Post. Worms, that universal disease in Childhood, can be thoroughly cured by the use of Dr. Peery's Dead Shot Vermifuge. E. Ferrett, Agent, 372 Tearl street. New York City.
