I AX-ONE OF TBE BAND. [TIfe following i said to have been the an swer of a clergyman when asked by some ladies if he was a Mason:j I ~am ono of the band Who will faithfully stand Ii the bonds of affeotion and lore; I have knocked at the door, Once wretched and poor, And there for admission I strove. by tfie help of a friend, Who assistance did leid, I succeeded an entrance to gaiti; Was received in the West, Py command from the Eastg But not without feeling somd pain. Itere my conscience was taught With a moral quite fraught , With sentiment holy and true; Then onward -1 traveled To see it unraveled What Hiram intended to do. Very soon to the East, I made known my request, Aqd "light'' by command did attend; When lo ! I perceived, Jn due form revealed,. A Master, and Brother, and Friend. Thus.far I have stated And Rif.nply related What happened when I was made free; But I've "passed" since then, And was "raised" up again, To a S4blimo and An6ient degree. Thus onward I marched, That I might be "Arch'd," And find out the treasures long lost; When behold! a bright flame, From. the -midst of which came A voice which my ears did accost. Through the "vails" I then went,' And succeeded at length The "Sanctum Sanctorum" to find; ABy the "Signet" I gained,. And quickly obtained Employment which suited my mind. In the depths I then wrought. And most carefully sought For treasures long hidden there; And by labof and toil, I discovered rich spoil Which are kept by the craft with due care. Having thus far arrived, I further contrived Among 'valiant Knights to appear; And an Pilgrim and Knight' I stpod ready to fight, Nor Saracen foe did I fear. For the widow distressed There is a cord in my breast; For the helpless orphan I feel; And my sword I could draw, .To maintain the law, Which the duty of Masons reveal. Thus have I revealed (Yet wisely concealed.) What the "free and accepted" well know; .1 am one of th's band, Whio.will faithfully stand As a Brother wherever I go. The Condemned Woman. We extraict the following from the .last "Fashuiogable lNews" letter Jen nie' June: The case of Mrs. Southern, the GeQrgia woman, who, excited by jealousy, stabbed a woman to death, who bad for years tried to step be .tween herself and the man who was her lover and afterwards her bus band, has excited a great deal of in terest among women here at the North, and many and heated have been t'he discussions as to the amount of crirminality involved in the deed. A t a recent ladies' lunch party wb'ere the subject was discussed, it wa,s a little curious tfnd how much sympat by was felt for the -murderess, and how largely she was exonLorated in' the minds of nearly every married woman presen t, . The argumen t 'was simply tiMs: That the devotion of 'the husband since the act of killing the other woman shgs elearly that he deeply loved his wile, and that i.t was only3 his gallantry, his vanity, his amour propre that were enlisted on the side of hem unscrupulons rival, who evidently pursued every advani tage regardless of' honor, d.ecency am.d loyalty to heri sex, or consideration for the feelings of a wito hnd prospec tive mother. For this kind of wickedness in wo. men there is no punishment. The lawv does not recognize it, and thbe tin fortunate wife is utterly at the mercy of a man who is impelled by his vau * ity to parade his influence over dth er women. That this wretched wo. . man-awas diiven to desperation there is no doubt, and. 8o cornmon is the cause which impelled her to the fear fuil 'act, it is stdrprising terrible scenes are not more fr'equently enac ted on this account. QO I rog is dnflicient t> make a spring. Uiens coine into the world by the h a tchwiy How to be Aanmwe Most people would Hke to be band% some. Wo body denies the great power wljch any person may have who has a handsome fade and at trftcts you by goodlo4s, even be fore a word has been spoken. And we pee all sorts of devices in men and women to improve their looks. Now, all cann6t have good lea tures-they are as God made them - but almost any one can look well, especially with good health. It is bard to give rules in a very short space but in brief these will do: Keep clean-wash freely. All the skin wants is leave to act freely, and it takeq care of ifselt. Its thousands of air holes uiuqt not be closed. Eat regulaily, aud sleep enongh not too much. 'ihe stomach can no more work all the time, night and day, than a horse. It must hAve re-. gular work and rest. Good teeth are a help to good looks. Brush them with a soft brush, especially at night. Go to bed with cleansed teeth. Of course, to have white teeth it is needful to lot tobao co alone. All women know that. Washes for the teeth should be very simple. Acid may whitten the teeth, but it takes off the enamel and in jures them. Sleep in a cool room, in pure air. No one can have a cleanly skin who breathee bad air. But more tran all, in order to look well, wake up init.d and soul. . , When the mind is awake the dull, sleepy look passes away from the eyes.. I do not know that the brain expands, but it seems to, Think, and read, not trahy novels, but books and papers that have something in them. TAlk with people who know something; hear lectures and learn by them. Men. say they cannot aifford books, and sometimes do not even pay for .a paper-. In that case it doce them 1it tie good, thaey feel so mean w hile reading them. But men cqn afford what they really choose. If' all the money spent in self indulgence, in hurtful indulgence, was spent ini t>ooks and papers for self-impr~ove, mnent, we would see a chanige. .Meni would growv handsome, and women too. The soul would shine oult he eges. We were not meant to be mer e ainimrals. Let us have books and read them, and &.irmons and( heved them.,.

Their toot ii Wove whole, and they kan sWim. as easf a a drop of kastor oil on the watt-r. They, are ' born annually about the 15th of May, and. never was known to die sattur ally. It a anan should tell me he saw a goose die a natural death, I wouldn't believe him under oath after that, nut even if lie swore be had lied about seeing a goose die. The goose is dif_erent in one.res pect from the huinan family, who is 4ed tew grow weaker and wiser, as a goslin always, grows tuffer and more phoolish. I have seen a goose that they sed was 93 yeais old last June, and did not look an liour.older than one that was only 17. .The goslin waddles when he walks and paddles when lie swims, but never diveqlike a duck out oflight, but orJy changes ends. They ain't so particuli'ar as some pholks what they eat, won't git mad and quit it they kant have wet toaEt and lain chops every morning for breakfast. FLATTERERS.-Kncw that flatter era are the worst kind of traitors: for they will strengthen thy imper fections, encourage thee in all evils, coi-rect thee in nothing, but co shiad, ow and paint all thy vices and follies as thou shalt never, by their will, discern good froin evil, or vice from virtue. And because all men are apt to flatter thems'elves, to enter tain the addition of other men'8 praises is most perilos.-Sir Walter Raleigh to his Soli.

Probably most girls have felt so, but few of them have ever' had the grace to express it in this way: She frankly declared that the first time a coat sleeve encircled her wvaist, she seemed to be in a pavilion built of rainbows, the windou--sills of which were composed of Ai >lian harps.
