"They Bay!" Ah! well, suppose they do, But can they prove the story true? Suspicion* may arise from nought But malice, envy, want of thought, Why count yourcelf among the "they," Who whisper what they dare not say?
••They say J" But why the tale rehearse. And help to make the matter worse? No good can possibly accrue From telling what may be untrue And is It not a noble plan To speak of all the best you can?
"They say!" Well, If tt shonld be so. Why need you tell the tale of woe? "Will It the better work redrew. Or make one pang of sorrow less? WU1 it the erring ones restore, Henceforth to "go and sin no more?" ••The nay?" Oh! pause and look within -f

Betsey's Bonnet.
Well, Uncle Abel, now you are off for iiome, 1 suppose tradieg all done, crops •all bargained for, eh T" and John Dare lifted his hat and pushed back bis thick bair as be stood on the hotel stops talcing to a plain country farmer 4n a suit of home-ajun gray, "Wa'al, not quit yot, Jobn. I want to get Betsey a bonnet—a real nice onejust as good as a Yorker might want. 'Cause Betsey's worked awful hard this spring. Times are good, too. Sulguess •we'll see if my Betsey sbant look as good as anybody. S'pose you don't want to go along with me, do you •'Let me see—four o'clock—yes, 111 go Uncle Abel. I'll look at the pretty girls, though you won't mind ttiat. Coixie on." 80 they walked up tbe street, the fashionable uttire of the young lawyer contrasted strongly with theantiquated cut of tbe farmer's garments, which at homo were wont to lie iu solemn state in the •pare room all the week, only to be worn on Sunday with becoming carfulness. There was little likeness in tbe lace—a trifle too fair for manly beauty •with its
blonde
They reached Madame Rozette's at last, aud John lounged in the doorway aAd straightway engaged in tbe laudable employment of finding out the prettiest face of the girls in attendance. Josie Molliet, radiaut with smiles, and I think a little artilicial bloom, came forward •with the most bewitching glances to wait upon tbe farmer who brought so attractive a person with bim and fancying that she would show ber superior quality by so doing, made up ber mind to quiz Uncle Abel unmercifully. Poor old man He never was so miserable In all bis life. In Hopetown ho would bave made no trouble whatever. Miss Crautree, in her piain dress and cap with lavender ribbons, would have told him at once what to get and her little gray eyes would not have confused him in tbe least.
But here was a fine lady, with a great circumference of black silk trailing out along the carpet, a waist no bigger than wasp, a heau ou which tbe bair seemed struggling in ciknps and curls to get away from the shining bands strapped tightly around it, and a pair of great black eyes looking straight at him, while the damsel held up one style after another, or tried themoncoquettiahly, but derived no help from him. '•Now, young woman, show me some of your best bounets real nice ones. None of your old fashioued poor things for my wife."
Having said this, Uncle Abel felt that ho had stated the case clearly and should have no more trouble.
Miss Josie sailed about and returned with a white chip gypsy, trimmed with blue, a shirred green satin with a rich rose ou it, and a gray straw trimmed with scarlet poppies. "Now that will be just what you want I am sure only tweuty-flve dollars, too so cheap and so becomming."
Uucle Abel confessed afterwards that be felt quite confounded at tbe great price, but he did not mean to let that Frenchified girl know It, so he only said ••Oh, that's tbe style, ehf It ain't abit like Betsey's old one, though." •'Ob, no, sir the fashion la« changed entirely. Now this gypy is the newest thing out, aud your wife would set tbe fashion, I don't doubt."
She looked up at John Daremerrilly but could not interpret the look in bis eyes so takiug it for granted that it was an expression of admiration, she pursued the same straiu. "Just fresh from Paris I am *urey?ur wife would like that. Shall I try it on for you V* "Wa'al, yes, I can tell better bow It looks, then*. Now it looks like a dish." ••There, it goes on this way," and Josie llttl stri lown "Don't you like it?"

Wa'al, it's kind o* purty but it's awful queer ain't it, John?" John tbus nppealed to, could only answer that he "knew nothing in the world about women's bonnets," and took his reverie, whatever it was, just where it wan broken off. But looking idlv in the lon« mirror opposite, he saw Josie making signs to auoiher girl, and be soon found that they were amusing themselves vastly at the perplexity of their customer. He saw. too, that a pi quiet girl, with smooth brown looked up from her work indignantly, and he rather saw than beard her say, •VFor shame," and grow crimson as she spoke. *,
pale, bair.
His own face flushed a little as he became aware that Uncle Abel was being made the bntt of their jokes—good Uncle Abel, who was looking so admiringly at the fabrics incomprehensible to aim, bis old heart only fall of the thought how he should make his present worthy of tbe patient soul for whom it was intended.

Then John as he said ail that mysterious and bewildering rangement of dress that be saw every da v.
Still te knew that Aunt Betsey's spare locks thinly splnkled with gray, were not dressed in modern style, and be could not for tbe life of him see whereabouts on that dear old head any of

He remembered that long ago Aunt Betsey was want to twist her hair with the game energy that distinguished all her movements, and that this operation resulted in a hard knot at the back of her bead like a door handle, which certainly would not harmonize with these capeless bead dresses.
Just as his brow was overcast with this tbougnt tbe pale girl came near Uncle Abel, ber cheek blushing as sbe did so in defiance of the other girls, holding in her band a plain Leghorn bonnet, trim med with violet ribtrans.
Sbe wore a mourning dress, and the plain brouch at her throat held a lock of gray bair. ,"I

close brown curls, to the bronzed aud beardless one, with tbe few locks, spare and gray, beneath tbe well brusbed hat but the blue^yes were the same in both and like those that were closed forever under the sod in the apple orchard on Uncle Abel's farm, where bis dead sister was laid when John was a tiny child. It troubled John not a whit to be seen with the plain countryman in spite of his perfumed bair ana well gloved hand bis neart was true as steel to the gooc friend of bis boyhood, and the inquir ing glances of bis companions gave him no annoyance whatever.
but il jou'll uu*t uje, sir, 1 think this will suit." She stood, hitherto, just out of the range of Jebn Dare's vision, and had not seen bim at all. Something in the sound of her voice attracted him, perhaps, and when Uncle Abel called: "Here, John Dare!" he stepped hastily enough toward them. Tbe girl thru tbe bonnet into Uscle Abel's hand*,and would have been out of sight if her dress had not caught on one of the branching stands and held ber Cast. "Amy 1" and Jobn Dare, witb a hot flush on bis face, caught her band and so detained her. "Amy Egbert, have I found yon at last T"
The girl's face grew white and red by turns, and the words sbe spoke came too slow and broken that only John could catch their meaning.
Uncle Abel pushed bis spectacles up ou bis forebeaa, still holding tbe bat in bis hand, looking open mouthed from one to the other. "I guess you must have known this young woman afore, didn't you?" he said but John was too busy with eager
Sueslions,
Outside the door John turned to leave his uncle and looked as shy as a girl, as he said, "It's all right, UucleAbel you've found a new bonnet, and I've found a—a—an old friend."
Uncle Abel held his hand fast, and looked a moment, without speaking, in John's face in a wistful way then said, looking in the young man's eyes, "she's a motherless girl, John." "Uncle Abel!" and John turned angrily away, or wou.d have done so if tho detaining hand had not held bim witb a grasp which sixty years had not weakened. "Look here, my boy, I meant no offence. None of my blood turn villains," he added proudly "but you see she's young and purtjy and forlorn,, and maybe, if yotf »6e too much ol hej, she might get to thlnkin' more of you than would be good for ber, aud if you ain't in earnest I guess 'twould break her heart. Shake hauds with your uncle, my boy, I mean no harm but I promised LIKI, when she was on her dylu' bed, that I would alus try to give you good advice, and the last words a'most that she spoke, says she, 'Abel, watch over my boy.'" "My dear, kind uncle, I thank you, indeed, I do, for all your kindness, but I could not bear to think that you should misjudge me. I know Amy, long ago, when her parents were both living, aud she bad all that wealth could give. 1 loved her th«n in a quiet way, but I was too poor to tell her so. Then came reverses and death, and in ber poverty and pride tho girl hid herself from me resolutely until uovv. She tried to earn her bread by her accomplishments, but failed, aud gb'dly took this means to do so. Now, if I can win her for my wife I shall bring Mrs. John Dare to see you some fine day this summer may I, Uncle Abel?"
So they parted, and the passers by little dreamed of all that had been said. "Wa'al, wa'al, if things don't turn out queer!"soliloquized Uncle Abel, homeward bound, with a bandbox placed on tbe seat before him. "To think bow uear I come to gettin' one of them typsies for Betsey. Why she would lave laughed a week about it. And then to think that painted picture of a girl was making game of me all the while. And then the other ono with her gentle way, taking the trouble to tell a stupid fellow like me what was tbe right thing to buy. I guess she would make our John a good wife and after Betsey and me has passed away, there'll be a nice bit of property coming to John and that'll help him on."
How pleased Aunt Betsey was, to be sure, when the old man gave her tbe new bonnet! How fair and young she looked In the fresh ribpons and coft blonde around her face! And how sbe laughed at the idea of wearing one of them dish covers on ber head J"
Just when the country was in its Jnoe glory, John Dare brought bis brld to the farm house where be had spent so many childish hours, and be led her to all the old familiar spots, from the weir in the brook to the grave by the orchard. But as long as a straw and ribbon may endure to keep them both in mind bow John Dare found his wife, they tell the story of the time when Uncle Abel bought Betsey's bonnet.
THE FRIENDS*
Mr. R. T. Bently, a member of the estimable community of Quakers at Sandy Springs. Md., says he was severely affected by rheumatism in bis right band. Mr. Bently applied St. Jacobs Oil, the great pain-enre and by its continned use, in a short time was completely cured.

"Wa'al now, tell me, for I have got so bothered with these things that I don't know one from t'other. I want to get a bonnet for Betsey, and I mean to. Now jti!»t wll w«»ul«i like yonr ni'»'iier t»

and Amy was trembling and
ushing as she tried to speak calmly, and so bis question was unanswered. Pretty Josie was dividing her attention between new customer and the strange scene beside her, and between anger and mortification she looked in no need of help from rouge, as she tossed her head and muttered various uncourteous remarks in regard to that Amy Egbert, and ber beau.
Uncle Abel held the hat a wh.le longer quite patiently, but at last despaired of the interview being ended, so he doughed aud then said:
I'll take the bunmt. Twenty dollars' is a good deal. Betsy's worth it, ain't she John
John need not have started so, or said "Very," which wasn't a suitable answer at all but Uncle Abel laughed a little to himself, and said, softly, "Ob, boys will be boys!" and he was obliged to tell Miss Egbort tbe director over twice, too, and felt quite uneasy lest it sboulu not arrive at bis hotel in time.

WHAT EXPERIENCE JTT$~ JES RELATIVJB TO THE PK£V#JTION OP DISEASE®! *ste
PRECAUTIONS AGAINST CONSUMPTION. Let us urge upon onr readers the importance of thorough and constant ventilation of living rooms. Avoid utowdel omnibuses, or railway carriages in which the windows are closely shut, or in which the %eniila,tiwu is so small that it does not prevent1 the condensation of vapor in tbe windows. Above all, do uol irequent erowded meetings, in which tbe organic exhaltations are pent up within four walls. Remember, too, that tbe danger is especially great wherever there is a continuously high temperature. Prof. Koch tells us that tbe limits of temperature within which the bacillus can he cultivated is from about 86 deg. to 107 deg. Far.—about the heat of a hot summer's day. Tbe continuously high temperature in which formerly our consumptive! patients were condemned to live, were the very worst conditions with which to surround them. Consumption is a much more rapidly fatal disease in hot than in cold climates, and it is probable that it is more truly infectious. The Italians treat it as if it were almost as infectuous as scarlet fever or measles, and we must ascribe it less
LBMONADE AS A DRINK.
Lemonade is one of the best and safest drinks for any person whether in health or not. Ic is suitable to all stomach disease, is excellent in sickness—in cases of jaundice, gravel, liver complaints, inflammation of the bowels, and fevers. It is a specific against worms and skin
complaints. Lemon juice is the beat antiscorbutic remedy known. It not only cures this disease, but prevents it. Sailors make a daily use of It for this purpose. Tbe ban da and nails are also kept clean, white, soft and supple by the daily use of lemon instead of soap. It also prevents chilblains. I/»mon is used in intermittent fever, mixed with strong hot, black coffee, without sugar. Neuralgia may be cured by rubbing tbe part affected with a cut lemon. It ia valuable slso to cure warts and to desteoy dandruff on the bead, by robbing the roots of the hair with it. In fact its uses are man'fold, and the more we employ it externally the better we shall find ourselves. Rub your hands, head and spms with lemon and drink lemonade in preference to all other liquids. This is an old doetor's advice. Follow it,
A POOR MAN'S CONFIDENCE. The loss of tkneto many a Rheumatic sufferer is a worse agony than the disease. Tbe remedy which is prompt and efficacious hi his only real benefactor. Says Mr. F. Smith, of 622 8. 9tb Phils.: "I suffered so tnach from Rheumatism without prospect of relief, that I borrowed the money to buy a bottle of ATHLOFHOROS. After seven doses I bad not a sharp pain or ache. Have been at work ever since. It is all that it is claimed for it, and will proves sovereign balm for many a poor suffering sonl."

When we consider for a moment the number of valuation lives that have been sacrificed during the past win tor Rowing to neglect on the part of sufferers from cold, we feel that anything t.bafc will contribute to the prevention of disease, should be brought to the attention gf all.
there to tbe almost open air
tbe inhabitants lead. Tbe evil practice of heaping upon the beds at night the clothes that have been worn in tbe day time, or even, as some do, of wearing tbe same underclothing day and night, is most pernicious, and likely to breed consumption in those who live iu houses where this practice pursued.
CARE OP TUB FEET.
When tbe feet are damp and cold it is impossible to keep well. There will be a cough, or sore throat, or hoarseness, or headache, or some other annoyance. If cold and dry, tbe feet should be soaked in hot water for ten minutes every night and when wiped and dried rub into them well ten or fifteen drops of sweet oil do this patiently with the bands, rubbing the oil into the soles of the feet particularly. On getting up' in tbe morning dip both feet at once into water as cold as the air of tbe room, half-ankle deep for a minute iu summer half a minute or less in winter rubbing one foot with^ the other, then wipe dry, and if convenient, holding tbem to the fire, rubbing tbem with the hand until perfectly dry and warm in every part. If the feet are damp and cold attend only to the morning washing, but at night always remove the stockings and hold the feet to tbe fire, rubbing them with the hands for fifteen minutes, and get immediately into bed. Under any circumstances as often as the feet are cold enough to attract attention draw off the stockings aud hold them to tbe fire if the feet are much inclined to dampness put on a pair of dry stockings, leave the damp ones before tbe fire to be ready for another ch-inge. Some persons' ieet are more comfortable, even in winter, in cottou, others in woolen stockings. Eacb must be guided by his own feelings. Sometimes two pairs of thin Stockings keep the feet warmer than one pair that is thicker than both. The tbin pairs may be of the same or of different materials, and that which is best next to the feet should be determined by the feetingB of tbe person. Sometimes tbe feet fire rendered comfortable by basting half an inch thickness of curled bair on a piece of thick cloth, slipping this into the stocking with the hair next to tBe skin, to be removed at night and placed before tbe fire to bo perfectly dried by morniug. Persons who walk a great deal during the day should, on coming home for the night, remove their shoes and stockings, hold the feat to the fire until perfectly dry put on a dry pair, and wear slippers for the rest of the evening. Boots and gaiters keep the feet damp, unclean and noisome by preventing tlio escaps of" tbe insensible perspiration and odor which are constantly emating from healthy feet hence the old-fashioned shoe is tbe best for health, for the strengthening of the ankles, by habituating them to support themselves. Piecesof newspaper wrapped around the feet over the stockings keep 1 he feet remarkably warm. Celd feet arise from the want of vigorous circulation in them this is often remedied by putting tbem in hot water in a wooden vessel HO as to cover tbe toes in about ten minutes put both in cold water, the colder the better, of tbe same depth, for half a minute tho object being to produce a shock calculated to draw tbe warm blood to the soles this may be done ou retiring and rising. Nothing should be considered a trouble which can have even a slight tendence to keep tbe feet warm, because there never can be recovery from disease or substantial good health without it.

I can detect tbem at a glance." "Tell me, to'what bill do you refer?" "Well, take~the annual gas bills, for instance. They are introduced for the purpose of bleeding the Washington Qas Light company. They usually result in an investigating committee which never amounts to anything more than a draft upon the public treasury for the expenses of tbe investigation. Another squeese is the abattoir bills, as they are called. These, of course, are fought by the bntchers and market-men. The first attempt to force a bill of this description was in 1877, when & prominent Washington politician offered a fabulous sum for the franchise." "Anything else in this line that you think of, Mr. Ashley V* "Yes, there's the job to reclaim the Potomac flats, which, had it become a law, which would have resulted in an enormous steal. The work is now being done by thf\Government itself, and will rid tbe pl i-ce of that malarial atmosphere of which we hear so much outside the city.". "During your residence here have you experienced tbe bad results of living in this climate?"' "Well, while I have not at all times enjoyed good health, I am certain that the difficulty which laid me up so long was not malarial, It was something that bad troubled me for years. A shooting, stinging pain that at times attacked different parts of my body. One day my right arm and leg would torture me with pain, there would be great redness, heat and swelling of tbe parts and perhaps the ne'1* day t» left arm and leg would be itfflfl'ftthf Nfrcted'. Then again it YurfJ JA* fc^lome particular part of uce a tenderness which would.. Weil Ux^drive me frantic. There would'^e weeks at a time that I would be afflicted with an intermitting kind of pain that would comeon every afternoon and leave me comparatively free from suffering during tbe balance of the twenty-four hours. Then I would have terrible paroxysms of pain coming on at any time during tbe day or night when I would be obliged to lie upon my back for hours and keep as motionless as possible. Every time I attempted to move a chilly sensation would pass over my body, or I would faint from hot flashes. I suffered from a spasmodic contraction of tbe muscles and a soreness of tho back and bowels, and even my eyeballs become sore and distiessed me greatly whenever I wiped my face. I became ill-tempered, poevisli, fretful, irritable and desperately despondent." "Of course you consulted the doctors regarding your difficulty." "Consulted tbeui well I should say I did.

"Do you object to the publication of this interview, Mr. Ashley "Not at all, sir. I look upon it as a duty I owe my fellow creaturerB to alleviate their .sufferings so far as I am able, and any communication regarding my oyinptoms and cure that may be sent to me at 506 Maine avenue will receive prompt and careful attention." "Judging from yonr recital. Mr. Aftbley, there must be wonderful curatire properties about this medicine?" "Indeed, there is, air, for no man sufficed more nor longer than did I before this remedy gave me relief." "To go back to tbe original subject, Mr. Ashley, I suppose yon see the same familiar faces aboot the lobby session after session?"
