FARAWAY MOSES. HnE WiTEs OF TIIINUS OF (ENERAL iNTr sR TO TIlE I'E(1l'1.I AND ICELATES EXPEiUIENES IN ilS OWN CAREEt. (Pennsylvania Grit.) With all the pathos, pain and per ploxities of poverty, there is a vein of original humor pooping out from its rags and hunger and smiling be neath the load of want that is press. ing it to the earth with a thurny crown of torture and a cross of weary toil. Originality and rags often go I hand in hand, and the laugh that I bubbles up from beneath an empty stomach very often has a more mu- I sical ring in it than the fat, blubber- 1 ing guffaw slobbering up from the < overfed paunch of prosporous glut- I tony and physical ease. Poor people always see the laugh- i able and humorous side of their pov- I orty, and their many failures to get I on in the world often creato a good deal of mirth when related by the I individuals who have experienced the I most flat failures. Looking back over my own life i through the cracks of my own expo rience, I fully roalize that I had i more genuine fun and spontaneous i pleasure while I was master mechanic on a side hill farm and cultivating 1 economy and yallor corn, and had i the legs of my blue overalls gnawed off half way up to my knees by the I friction of the rasp-like dowbeiry I vines while wading after the plow i and singing a revival meeting hymn to drown the disagreeable recollec tion that the calf had eaten the can- t dal appondage from my only shirt i while hanging on the garden fenco I to dry. This incident afforded a li great deal of hilarity among the f, neighbors, and uado mo the hero of a more than two weeks; and in those a, days it was worth somiet hing to be a p horo. Ic You often hoar it said of some old ttl skin-flint that "io doesn't know how rich he is," and the same thing can b< be applied to thousands of poor peo- ae plo with a greater amount of truth in di it. In those old days I did not roal- fr izo my poverty at all. I felt its p heavy hand upon me, to be sure, but d the hope and the sense of humor a within me would come out smiling a through it all, and I accepted every- a thing choorfully, just the same as a in poor little pig will accept skimmed c( milk in a burst of delight after d. has forgot,ton all about the taste of cream. I had never tasted the cream v of luxury, andI the blue milk of pov- 1 erty filled up pretty well, if it didn't rt fatten, and I wvas contented so long oi as the cow of absolute necessity didnu't I go entirely dry. ci But one timeoeven the blue milk tt of the most common comforts dried ai up at a critical period, and I was the 14 worst put-out man in seven States, I: even including the state of actual do- 01 apondency. Wampy Bryan came to v visit me when I was keeping bacho- b lor's hall in Mildowv Hollow, and next ni morning when I began to preparo ii breakfast I discovered that 1 didn't have a grain of coffee or a crumb of ft tea in the house. I confessed my ri poverty to Wampy, and he said that s1 made no difference, since he had s< -~- .-- - - t< j' THE FIRST BABY. c g Its Coming is Looked Forward to With Both Joy and Fear and itsv Safe Arrival is Hailed With r Pride and Delight by All. si The arrival of the first baby In the tI household is the happiest arid most im- - portant event of married life. The young wife who is to become a mother delights di to think of the happiness in store for her when the little one shall nestle upon her d4 breast and latterly she shall hear it lisp ai the sweet and holy name, "mother.' But hrhappy antielpation quickly van.. ishs henen relies heterrible pain w, and suffering through which she must p ass while bringing the little one into the world.

L Well, the woodchuck was the e !eetest and juiciest bit of wild meat L aver tasted, and alt.hough the bread ayed out before we were half (lone ting, we finished the nmeal on wood uck, the old man looked on with spairing eyes, for we left but a. mall amount of fragments for the i fellow's brfakfast.
