The Donation Party at Willowbrook.
A Story with a Very Large Moral.
So many confused and contradictory rumors have been circulated aboul that last donation party that I (who have heard the whole story from my friend and neighbor MU» Mix) would like to give the world a plain, unvarnished account of tlie whole festivity.
Let me. then, introduce my informant, Miss Melissa Mix, spinster, owning to forty, moderately well endowed with this world'* goods, houskceper and care-taker for the only brother Ralph, some years her senior, both of them prominent members of the Willowbrook church—and thus heralded, she sha 1 tell you the story she told me. "Of'course we can't give our minister Much of a salary, you know, Miss Harwoodj but we've always calkilated to get a man whose heart wasn't set on filthy -hjcre, as the 'Postle says. "I must own we hain had much st'-" ccss, for, would you believe itr out ot five candidates that preached here the vear we built tire church, not one was^ willti.g to stay and do the Lord worti. "Whv there's only abo it sixty t.uiu.iesi„ our church, and it was settled that first winter, that six dollars a family would he a lair tax, iii.ikim nigh onto lour hundred dollars a year, you see yet its wonderful what 1 rouble w"'vc had to git a pastor. "Brother Kulph thought that mebbe if we had a parsonage it would help us so he and fie other trustees bought that nice little cottage where'Mrs Gray used to live, with a whole rod ofland belonging to it: but, law! 'twas'n't of no use none of •emstaid the vear out and I was clean discouraged.'' "When Mr. Ormsby came, nigh on three years ago, lie seemed mure reachable than the iest, though :isk.-d it wicouldn't furnish part of the paiyi age for him, as they was only new beginners, and hadn't much housekeepin' stiitl. "Well, the ladies was so well pleased with him that they took right hold of tl wori (he was to come back in a fortnight and got lots of things together. "There was a handsome pincushion made for each of the bedrooms—there's three on 'em in the house ar.d hall a dozen tidies for the parlor, and a case for his shavm' paper, and all sent in the fust week* "You've heerd him preach, Miss Ilar-
wood,
and you know how interest in he was, and what a beautiful reader and singer too. Why. I declare I took real comfort yoifr to church and sittin' under such preachin' and fo we all did, 1111 sure. "Hut I was tel'in' you about iat we gave him.- Well, Deacon Stiles's daughter Sfllk made a drawin' of the church, nnd fwflhied it in pine cones, to hang in Mr. Oniitbv'o Mudy, and the !o icon he sent cookin' stove out ot his own kitchen." He'd just bought a new one for Mr. Stile., and he come over and put it up rjiself, which.I thought was uncommon kind. •'Then we took up a contribution to buy some furniture, but ready money was skurse just then, so we only raised enough to git a pair of chiny vases and an inlistaiid.
But Silas Hart, who sold 'em to us, was one of our members, so he threw in ac.liii\v i!og*lor the baby, and a match box for the parson's wife. "Miss
31
tfcey
Jones and Uncle Midian sent in
new painted bedstead and a kitchen table, ami so I fold Ralph that I'd give 'em a couple of kitchen chairs and our cradle the one.we both rocked in. So I did, and •I pieced a real handsome little quilt lor the crudle, a sunflower pattern, all out ot spick and span new calico tco. "Well, it's 'most too bad to tell, but Mandv' Jones, who went to help Miss Ornishv git to righis, told ine that she did act dreadful, and not a bit becomin' a minister's wife. "She "Vent all round the house alookin as if she were ready to cry, and at last the sot down in the parlor on her trunk, and begat"! to laugh at the vases and the inkstamWind then wound up by lindin' fault ftp the stove, which she said looked as if M&came out of the ark. "I've always thought she made her husband-discontented, (or Mr. Ormsby was such a meek, quiet, unselfish man, that he never would have made any trouble if she hadn't been always complaiitin'and puttin' I im up to grumble. "But I'm wanderin' off from my story 1 started to tell you about Ihe donation party. Vou see. the first year we got along splendid with it, and I must say 1 nevfcr saw a better tea table spread than we set that nigt\} for Miss Ormsby. "But that woman never could be satisfied, and she said afterward that it wouldn't take more than two such parties to ruin .any family! ••'It seems she found fault because we ail sttfkj'+o tea with 'eni, jest as if we hadn't a rijiht to our tea alter sendin' in all the victuals for it. "But I don't know as Aunt Betsy did do txac'JV right, lor she took Miss Ormsby's preserves to put on the table, and
A^atfill cat that night, auu 1 s'pose -that put* er out some. "Well, as 1 was savin', the second year come ropnd, and it was read out in jncetin' iliat the donation party would be igwen'the next Friday. "Mr. Oimsby read the notice, and then 'W looked all around and cleared his •throat two or three times, as if he had wmcthiri' pertickler to say, but after waitin' a ifiinute he changed his mind and at down. "1 thought he acted kinder queer, but I was quite taken up with noticin' Miss Orimby. She got red as could be, and when mectin' was dismissed she jest fcun ied out as if she didn't want any one speak to her. "Well, "Friday came, and by three o'clock we was mostly all at the personate Mr. Ormsby looked dreadful sober, more as it it was a funeral than a merrytnakin', I must say but his wife was awful
She
Ti
i4s®r
was jest as huffy and short as
she could be with every one, and she went and locked the studv door and put the key in her pocket right before us all as if she was afraid we'd touch some of Mr. OJtriSby's papers or books. "Btfheby we began to think about settin'datable so Aunt Betsy, Mandy jones, and
me
went ^ut in the kitchen to
unpack the turnips (Uiem we put in.thc wilier), apiece of corned beef,' two or three bilde hams, a pot of butter, some
"1iV
apple sass, a big cheese, and such a let oi buscuits it would have taken all night to count 'em "I began to be scait when wc took out panful after panful of biscuit, and no cake to speak of. At last we come to Miss Jone's baekct, and there we found Mection cake, as well as a great batch of molasses cookies." "I was gla'l enough Id sent pound cake and crullers but somehow when the table was ready, there was more biscuits on it than any thing else, though we did the best we could." "Mr. Johnson sent tea and coffee from his store, besides sugar and crackers, anJ Amos Hull he bought a bag of nuts and some apples for the young folks after supper, he said. "There was so many there that we hac. to divide them into three lots, the dinin'room bein' small it was most seven o'clock when they got through eatin.' "Aunt Betsv staid with me to clear up some and I thought I never should get all the biscuits put away, for they 'most filled the pantrv. "For all there had bc.-n so many eaten, vet there was piles and piles left, and. as Aunt Betsy said, tbc\ wouldn't need to bake for a month to come. "It happened so that I diJn't go out much the week after the donation party, but, the second Sunday after, I started off good and early for church, and as 1 turned the corner by the parsonage, I sa\\ .onicthint tliat 'most took my breath away. Every one of them sharp-pointed pickets round the house and garden had a good biscuit stuck right atop of it! Yes, Miss Ilarwood, jest as sure as you live, there was Aunt Betsy's nice raised biscuits—I could tell hern bv the shape—and
Miss
Hull's rusks, and Miss Stile's soda biscuit, and every one ot 'em wasted in that shameful way "Well, I stood and looked—I hadn the strength to move—and pretty soon some of the ladies came along and jined me and there we all stood till the last bell began to ring, talkin' the matter over, and feelin' pretty mad lean tell vou. "Mr. Ornisbv had a good sermon that day. but I could hardly hear a word, mv mind was so full 'he biscuits. "Miss Ormsby wnrr't there, and as .non as the Inst"hymn *\:-*sun«r. he got up and said that he hat', a call troin a el.inch in the far West, i,d that he had made up his mind that it was his duty to accept it. He went on to say that he would like.to go that same week, and then, without so much astellin'us that he was sorry to leave us, or oflerin' to wait until we could get some one else, he gave the benediction and dismissed us. "I can tell you there was talk enough when w? got out that mornin', and some of the folks thought we ought to 'p'int a committee to ask Miss Ormsby about it, but brother Ralph said, 'No if they was goin,' let 'em go peaceable so they all agreed to say nothin' at all. "We heard afterward from little Johnny Mull, who was plavin' near the parnonage late on Saturday afternoon,1 .hat Mr. Ormsby he brought the biscuits out in a big basket, and then Miss Ormsby she helped hi*i to stick them on tlife pickets, and she laughed all the time as if it was a good joke. "I don't want to judge any body, but I never did think that woman was fit for a minister's wife, and I don't think so now. "Well, they moved off, bag tnd baggage, on Wednesday of that week, and we've never heard from Mr. Ormsby since, and I don't know as we want to, scein' he hurt our feelin's so, though we've never found as good a preacher as he was, and never will."

A rich American comes to Paris and goes to one ofthe great restaurants on the Boulevard for breakfast. The bill is 14k francs.
Next morning he goes to the same restaurant orders precisely the same breakfast, aud is charged i6jo francs
He says nothing, but thinks a great deal, and returning on the third day to the restaurant gives exactly the same order and calls for the bill. Ihis time it is i8|£ francs.
This time he cannot avoid calling his attention of the pioprietor to this singular occurrence. The proprietor, with a gracious smile, looks at the bill and anwers blandly: "That is easily explained, sir. The first two bills were wrong. This one is right, but we never make our customers pay for any mistakes we have made."

Its main line is laid with double and third tracks of heavy steel rails upon a deep bed of broken stone ballast, and its bridges are all of iron or stone. Its pas senger trains are equipped with evenknown improvement for comfort and safety, and are run at faster speed for greater distances than the trains of any line on the continent.

LINIMENTS.
White for the Human Family. Yellow, for Horses and Animals
These tiniments are simply tlie wonde ofthe world, Their effects are little less han marvelous, yet there are some things which they will not do. Thev will not cure cancer or mend broken bones, but they will always allay pain. They have straightened fingers, cured chronic rheumatism of m-ny yea standing, and taken the pain from terrible burns and scalds, which has never been done by any other articlc.
Tlie White Liiinioiit is for ths human family. It will drive Rheumatism, Sciatica and Neuralgia from the system cure Lumbago, Chillblains, Palsy, Itch, and most Cutaneous Eruptions it extracts frost fioin frozen hands and feet, and the poison of bites and ntingfs of venomous reptiles it subdues swellings, and alleviates pain of every kind.
For sprains or bruises it is the mos potent remedy ever discovered. The Centaur Liniment is used with great effiacv for Sore Throat.
Caked Breasts,
Toothache,
Earache, and Weak
Back. The following is but a sample numerous testi-nonials: "INDIANA HOME, JEFF. Co., IND.,

The proof is in the trial. Tt is reliable, it is handy, it is cheap, and every family should have it.
