Once a man of great invention Made a nest for hens to lay in, With a mean deceitful bottom, That would slide and let the egg out Falling through a small aperture Then would slide and close the hole up; And he sold it to the owner Of a hen, the boss producer Of most delicate "hen fruitage." Now the hen was mighty gritty, And she spread herself to do it, So she laid an egg enormous; Then arose in great elation, With her feathers all a-flutter, And her body all a-cackle, And she said, "as sure as shooting, I have laid an egg exceeding My most sanguine cackleations, Far beyond my eggspectation. Where's that egg? May stars and garters In the name of all Eve's daughters' Can I not believe my senses? Surely I have not gone crazy ! Well, if this don't beat the dicken, May I never hatch a chicken." Long she pondered o'er the matter, O'er this strange hallucination, O'er this most complete deception; Then she squared down to business, And she laid another avis, Though of course it was a-missing, Though she scratched around the litter, In her efforts to espy it. But why make the story longer? Thus in fatal repetition, Of this eggy operation, Passed the day until the evening, When the owner came to find her, Found her naught except her wattles, Half her bill and some pin feathers, While within the box beneath them, Where that fooling slide had dropped them, Found he eggs a half-a-bushel. Gone, heroic Henawatha! Died she In the nest of duty, Victini of man's vile deception. Surely she must have interment With that nest as her sepulchre, For she layed herself within It. -Cincinnati Grange Bulletin. Twenty Years Difference. -0 BY JUDGE CLARK. 'What a splendid figure !' ox. claimed Wyley Stote, bringing imself and the friend whose arm he held to a dead bait in their stroll along the beach. 'Arid whbat a magnificent air and carriage !' be added ; 'whby won't she turn her face this way ?' Following the direction of Wy ley's iook. his fri end, Dick Bow les, found no difficulty in discoverin~ the object of this impromptu ad. miration. It was a tall and rather stately lady, lending her aid, at the moment, to a quite elderly gentleman, as the two ascended a fight of steps leading from the beach to one of the watering place hotels. 'I"l tell you what,' said Dick, and there was a twinkle of mis. chief in his eye-'he'll be a lucky fellow who makes an impressior in thbat quarter ?' 'Do you know her'?' 'Kno w Priscilla Helvin !-wby, she's a distant relative of mine, with ever so many thousands ii possession, and ever so many more in prospect in the death of her father there.' Wyley Stote was a man at once susceptible and fickle. He had been many times in love and seo erai times engaged, and was, at prsent, under a sort of fast and loose engagement with Florg Sabin, who was young and pretty, but not rich ; and Wyley could be have had his way, would have preferred in a wife the combined attractions of wealth and beauty. Tbe walk was [not prolonged. Wyley withdrew to his chamber for" meditation. and devoted sov eral hours to that exercise. He was very fond of Flora Sabin, but she had neither money nor ex pectations-none, at least tha1 he knew of. He bad offered bei his hand arid she bad partly ae capted it; but a reasonable wo man, according to his philosophby couldn't expect a man to sacrifici too much for the sake of a mere promise ; and here was a brilliani match, not beyond his reach witi his friend Dick's assistance. True he hadn't seen Miss ilelvin's face That might spoil all1; for not ever wealth should ever tempt him t( marry an ugly woman. TIhe result of" his cogitationi may be thna snmmed upD : 4 would ask Dick Bowles for an in troduction to his rich relation, and if her face was equal to her fortune, aid her consent was ob tainable, she should speedily be come Mrs. Wyley Stote, and poor Flora might console herself as best she might while waiting for another suitor. W hen Dick and Wyley met that evening, and the latter ex pressed his wish to be introduced to Miss Priscilla, he was much chagrined to learn that she and her father had departed with the afternoon train without intending to return. 'I would have given anything to see her face !' sighed Wyley. 'If that's all, I can easily gratify you,' said Dick; exhuming an old album from his trunk. 'Here's a photograph she gave me once.' A single glance threw Wyley into ecstasies. The features m ere simply perfect. 'She's an angel l' cried Wyley. I f 'With golden wings,' suggested Dick, with a worldly wink. t 'My friend,' said Wyley, grasp. I ing Dick's hand, 'you must stand by me in this!' 'With all my heart,' replied the latter, 'and I'll tell you the way to proceed. Priscilla is the most romantic creature of her sex. Commonplace wooing would be thrown away upon her. You must write her a letter. Say that you, a stranger, fell hopelessly in love with her at first sight. De plore the accident, so fatal to your peace, that brought before your eyes charms which your pen is powerless to describe. Dilate upon them nevertheless. Gush. Inclose your likeness. And if she still remains inexorable I can only say she must be proof against every form of the argumentum ad fceminum. But whatever you do, don't mention me, or Priscilla's suspicions will be at once aroused.' Wyley Stote yielded to his' friend's advice, and dispatched a letter to the address indicated by the laster, in whbich it is quite cer tain the writer didn't understate his case. After some weeks an answer came. It was but two lines to say that Miss Helvin would be pleased to see Mr. Stote at her home any time he chose to call,. Mr. Stote took the first train to the city in which the Helvin's re sided, and lost no time in repair ing to the family mansion. 'I wish to see Miss Helvin,' he said, in an agitated voice, to the servant who showed him in. Presently a middle aged lady entered, between whom and the photograph in his pocket, which Wyley had begged of Dick Bow ls, there was a striking resem blance. 'l-I have called to see Miss Helvin,' said Wyley, with in creasing agitation, rising and bowing-'you-your daughter, I presume.' 'My name is Miss Hevlin,' re turned the lady, coldly. 'Then there must be another of the name.' 'Not in this house,' was the an s wer. 'This is the lady I have called to see,' replied Wylecy, over whelmed with confusion, and pro. ducing the photograph in sheer desperation. 'My own picture twenty years ago,' said Miss Helvin unable to restrain asmnile.1 A ringing laugh broke from Flora Sabin, who entered the room in time to catch the last words and a sight of the picture simultaneously. 'Such fun as auntie and I have ad over your letter, Mr. Stote, since my visit here! didn't know whose it was when you fell in love with auntie, I resign him to vou !' Wyley didn't stay to hear auntie's response. He is still a bachelor, whilst Flora is the wife of a worthier husband. Therej was another secret whisb Wyley Stote didn't know till it was too late. Flora was all the time down for a handsome legacy ic her grandfather. Cepbas Hevlin's will, and for another in her aunt's. Hlf fare-a mulatt.o. .is IlantDUS. 'THE DISADVANTAGES OF CITY BOYS." The following is from an article n St. Nicholas for March. Some months ago, Rev. Wash ngton Gladden, of Springfield, ass., believing that if he could ind out how the active and prom neut men of his own city spent heir boyhood, it would help to olve the problem of what is the )est training for boys, prepared he following circular, which was ent to the one hundred men who ould fairly -be said to stand at he bead of the financial, commer ial, professional and educational nterests of the city : 'My DEAR SIa: I desire to find ut, for the benefit of the boys, ow the leading men of this city pent their boyhood. Will you be rind enough to tell me. 1. Whether your home during be first fifteen years of your life vas on a farm, in a village, or in city, and, 2. Whether you were accustom d, during any part of that pe iod, to engage in any kind of vork when you were not in cbool ? I should be glad, of course, to ave you go into paiticulars as ally as you are disposed to do ; )ut I do not wish to tax your pa ,ience, and I shall be greatly ob iged for a simple answer to these wo questions.' No less than eighty-eight of he busy gentlemen who received his circular were kind enough to inswer the questions-some of hem briefly, most of them quite ully, and it turned out that few ad been brought up like most of he boys who crowd the ball rounds and fill the streets of our ities in these later days. Here is brief summary of the returns : Of these eighty-eight men, welve spent the first fifteen years f their life in the city, twelvo in Tillages., and sixty-four were far ers' boys. But of the twenty-four who ived in villages and cities, six vere practically farmers' boys, for bey lived in small villages, or on be outskirts of cities, and had the ame kind of work to do that far ners boyS have. One of these 7illage boys said : 'I learned to hoe, dig and mow ; n fact., I was oblhged to do work, whether I liked it or no. In win ,er I went to school, anid worked iights and mornings for my oard.' Another said: 'I used to work way from home some on a farm n the summer and fall. In the vinter, when going to school, we bree boys used to work up.thbe ~vood for winter use.' Four others told1 substantially beo same story. As these were ~bout the same as farmers' boys, e may add them to that lis.t, so bat seventy out of eighty-eight smost four-fiftbs of all these men -ad the training of farm life. Now how wvas it with the eigh een city and village boys on the ist? Did they have an easy time )f it ? Five of them did, as they ~estify ; five of them had no work n particular to do, but one of the ive says that he studied law when )ut of school, and that was riot ~xactly play. The rest of the righteen were poor boys-not aupers by any means, but chil iren of the humbler classes, many )f them in narrow and seedy cir ~umstances - and though they ived in cities or villages, they were accustomed from their ear iest years to hard work. 'Was generally employed,' says )ne, 'during the summer months nd in vacations in doing any id of work that offered.' Four of the cit.y boys were 2ewsbos. One of them says: The last year I was connected vith the press I earned $100 be ore breakfast.' Anoter: '1 have paid my own 'ay since eight years of age, ~vithout any assistance except my oard from my eighth to my elev mnth year.' Of all these eighty-eight boys se nly hard nothing particular While these boys were grow- I ing and working, a great many others-sons of merchants and lawyers-were growing up in Springfield, going to school and 1 amusing themselves as boys of their class are apt to do. Where are they ? Only five of this class are heard from among the eighty eight solid men of that city. Some d of them, perhaps, are prosperous men in other cities, but the num ber cannot be large, for in Spring field only five men out of eighty eight came from this class. Nine ty-four and a half per cent. were either farmers' boys or poor and hard.working town boys. G MY RULES FOR LIVING. I am no doctor or pill vender, S yet I have had a long life and a happy one. May I not therefore, just give my simple rules for d d health in the hopes that some trav eler on the up or down hill of life may look at them and be ben efitted by them. I have practiced them for many year:s and they bave done me.good; they may do good to others. They are inex pensive and may be easily aban doned, ii they cause anly harm. 1. Keep in the sunlight as much as possible. A piai:t will not thrive without the sunbeam; much loss a man. II. Breathe as much fresh air as your business will permit. This makes fresh blood; but it is never found in the four walls of your building. Beneath the open sky, just there, and only there, it comes to you. III. Be strictly temperate. You cannot break organic law, or any other law, with impunity. IV. Keep the feet always warm and the head cool. Disease and death begin at the feet more com monly than we think. V. Eat white bread when you cannot get brown bread. VI. If out of order see which of the above rmles you have not observed, then rub yourself all over with a towel, saturated with salt water, and well dried and be gin upon the rules again. VII. Look ever on the bright, which is the heaven side of life. This is far better than a med lelne. These seven simple rules, good for the valid or invalid, if rightly observed, w ould save, I apprehbend, a deal of pain, prolong life, and so far as health goes, make it worth the having. -Boston Travdler. THE GREAT MASTER.-'" am my own master !' cried a young man proudly, when a friend tried to persuade him from an enterprise( wich he had on hand ; 'I am my o wn master !' 'Did you ever consider what a responsible post that is?' asked S his friend. 'Responsible-is it ?' 'A miaster must lay out the work he wants done, and see that it is done right. He should try to secure the best ends by the best means. He must keep on the lookout against obstacles and accidents, and watch that every thing goes straight, else he must d fall.'t 'Well.'a 'To be master of yourself you have your conscience to keep lear, your heart to cultivate, your temper to govern, your will to direct, and your judgment to instruct. You rare master over a hard lot, and if you don't master them they will master you." 'That is so,' said the young man. 'Now, I could undertake no such thing,' said his friend. 'I should fail, sure, if I did. Saul h wanted to be his own master, and ( failed. .Herod did. Judas did. ~ No man is fit for it. 'One is my s master, even Christ.' I work un-a der his direction. He is regular, and where He is master all goes right.' 0 An Irish farrier once sent a b bill to a gentleman with the fol- P lowing item. 'To curing your honor's horse that died, 6s.' An able man shovs his spirit by gen tle words and resolute actions ; he is neither hot nor timid. 'a .IVES RUINED BY OBSTI NACY.
