THE BEST WINE LAST So Can? said : hut Mill the first was gool For skilful Nature wrought her very best ; Turning the sunshine into the hues of blood, Bringing the ripened clusters to be pressed. But this the Master brings ; llis silent eyeFlushes the sunshine of a loitering year , Be still. () guests, for Heaven is passing by ! Bow down, O guests, for your (Sod is here ! And it is always so. Birth's joys grow dint, Like waning moons they slowly disappear ; Our heavenly joys fill up the wideniug brim. Ever more deep and full, more sweet and clear. Sweet were his words, when ue r the mountnin He breathed His benedictions on the air; Waking the sleeping angels. Faith and Hope ; Bidding them sing away the grief and care. And yet, methinks. He speaks in sweeter tones, Out of the shadow of the nearing cross ; Telling of mansions and the heavenly thrones, Which soon shall recompense for earthly loss. The good, the better. and the Inst the best, Tliis is the order of the Master's wine ; More than the yesterdays to-days are blest. And life's to-morrows may be inoro divine. And what beyond ? Ah ! eye hath never seen, Kar hath not heard the wonders that await ; Karth's lights arc paling shadows to the sheen of untold glories just within the gate. We bid thee, Master, come and be our guest ! Life's common things Thou turnest into wine; Our cares, our woes, our bitter tears are blest if only thou dost cause Thy face to shine. Wao.no Home Influences.? Why. the stamp on thislcttor has not been cancelled,' said Mr. Martin Moore, taking up an envelope which had been postmarked with a pcu from a country postofficc. -You can remove the stamp carefully to use again as well as not.' Hut I shall do no Buch thing,' replied tho person thus addressed, to whom the letter had been scut. Oh, well, then I can do it for you, and wheu you get out of stamps I'll lend you one.' was ;>loorc s laughing reply. 'You dont suppose Uncle Sam will ever miss a two-cent stamp, do you?' It is the principle of the thing,' said the other speaker, and wc have no more right to steal twoccnts from the Government than a larger amount, and I will never touch that stamp again.' This conversation occurred in the home circle, were the children listened to the father's plausible reasoning, and how could they help being influenced by it? And if, iu after years, tho father, whose opinion the bright eyed boy respects, finds him practicing larger frauds, will the parent call to mind this, and similar lessons taught, indirectly it may be, in the home cirole? Here is another case in which both deceit and dishonesty arc inotillcd iuto the young mind. Little Robbie writes a letter to Unelc Robert, and in it, boy like, states that he has saved a dollar, and is going to put it into the saving bank. Now Robbie made figures to rcprcsonl the money, and Uncle Robert read it tou dollars instead of one. 'Well, well, he remarks, 'the boy is doiog well to save so much.' Now the uncle is of a thrifty disposition, and approves of boys saving .their pennies and dimes. So lie writes to Robbie's mother that if her little son has ten dollurs to put iuto the bauk. he will send anothci ten soon to add to the sum, for a small nest-egg. Ilnfr T tiiiln^ icrifo ilnllnra ' oni/1 bie, when he read the letter. Uncle made u mistake in my figures. Well, never mind, now,' replied the mother. 'Uncle Kobert can spare ten dollars as well as not, so we need not say anything about 'he mistake when we write to him.' Thus the child's better and more honorable impulses are cheeked, aud a lesson is early learned iugreed and actual dishonesty. Does this mother, a professing Christain, anxious for the moral and religious welfare of her children, consider what tares sho herself is sowing in the young mind??Congrey at tonal ist. #. The ller, Dr. Burton, of HartfoTd, is delivering a course of lectures to the young men in the Yale Theological Seminary. And this is the sensible way in which ho talks to them : -Bo not go about with a long face on. Do not look as if you are goiDg to faint, when you hear a doubtful remark. It will not injure your chances of eternal happiness if you laugh at a joke, or crack one yourself. I remember that not a great while ago I attended a dinner-party composed entirely of ministers. Henry Ward Beechcr was there, and when a leg of mutton was placed on tho table, ho said: 'Tho next time that sheep blaats, it will be from a pulpit.' Everything tlmt you take into your brain or your stomach, will blaat from your pulpit. Therefore assimilate everything you see or hear.' Tho American Cultivator, of Boston, suggests the following treatment for a young horse with a swollen ankle and log, probably caused by a sudden strain: Take a quart bottle, pnt into it four ounces concentrated ammouiu nod one pint alcohol. Scrape ono and one-half ounces best castile soap fine and add to it just enough warm water to dissolve the soap. After it is dissolvo d add to the alcohol and ammonia. Shake thoroughly, apply night anil morning from hock to fetlock, rub gently, passing the hand downward. J'ut light flannel bandage over enlargement, using caro not to havo more than two thicknesses. Wet the bandage lightly round tlio ankle at noon each day. Persevere iu the treatment and tho swelling will soon disappear. Honest Advice to Labou.?Lot the i men como together and discuss their grievances, and then come to an understanding. Let the employer give the men under hiui to understand that he is interested in their welfare, and not that ho cousidcrs them mere senseless machines. Acting under this policy whenever, during the past twelve years, we have been met by the officers of the roads there has bceu no strike. Every strike by us has been caused by the bluut refusal on the part of the roads to \ recognize us. Now, who is to blauie for the strikes we have had? Since tho troubles on the grnud Trunk and lloston aud Maine ltoads, where wo are positively refused recognition, oven for tho purpose of amicably adjustiug the difficulties, every diffidence has been adjus'cd by our brotherhood. During the cxcitcmcut of the past few months, we have had seven different cases, and in every case the policy of the brotherhood has settled them all. As far as I know the locomotive onginecrs and the railroad compauics are on excellent terms. No man has the right to say to another, "Thou shalt'' or "Thou shalt not,'' and in the violatiou of this priuciple is where the troubles lies among the working-men to-day We have no busiuess to say that an employer shall employ or shall uot employ this or that mau. A man has the right to belong to any organization, provided it is not contrary to the law. We say no mau has the right to say to another man that he must or must not belong to an organization. And, we have no right to go to the companies and say: "You must not employ that man.' Wo oppose this way, of doing things on principle. Unless a man is a rascal you have no right, as supcriutcndeut or master mechanic to prevent him from getting employment elsewhere because he docs not suit you, for he might suit somebody else. The great trouble is there has been too I great a chasm between capital and labor and we should strive to bring them closer together. There should bo no antagonism. There is no oceasiou for it, and though I want every laboring man to hold up his head and look his employer squarely in the face, I want him to remember that capital, as well as labor, has rights which we must respect. We cannot do without either. Uoth arc essential to the prosperity of the country. There should be no clashing bctwccu them?there need be nouc.

They care far more for themselves than they do for whom they represeut. What I did say about the eight hour law was this: "If the uiassos want eight hours for a legal day's work give it to them for a fair trial, but I fear there arc a large number of men who will not profit by it." Many of those sometimes called working-men do not make good use of their time. I bclievo in workiug. Sinco I was twclvo years old I have worked. Aud to that question I have never given any consideration further than to say: "Make the best use you can of the time God gives you. and if you want an additional two hours for the purpose of improving your mind then I hope the law-givers of the land will give it to you, and that you will appreciate it and not loiter it away as many men do, I am obliged to acknowledge. My advico is, be sober, be fragal, be industrious and practice a little self-denial for tbc benefit of those who are dependant upon your daily earnings. Above all, keep out of whisky shops, shun dens of infamy and the gambling table and spend your time with your wife.?Arthur's Address to his Brotherhood. The Wipe's Share.?No class of men are more indebted to their wives for success that comes to them than are farmers. The wifo and the mother who has the courage to go out with the husband of her choice and commence tbo struggle of life with him on the prairie, or ou a new farm, with but little capital, except that boundless capital of head aod heart, iB worthy to stand by the side of the Spartan woman of whom poets have exhausted tboir words of praiso. Upon her falls the brunt of the strife, no matter how hard tho husband may toil; his work closes with tho day, but hers continues after and, with her children, and the small chores that many of tho beginners look after, her lot is not one to be envied. And when, after years of struggle, success, with reluctant feet, comes to crown the hus band with honor, tho brightest wreath ihould adorn the brow of the noble wife, who was the stay and anchor, the comfort and the source of all hope in the stormy days of trial. The wealth should crown her queen. Wo hear much of the man. Wo hear that so-and-so is making money, and he gets tbo credit of boing a forehanded man, but it is qui'o as often that tho noblo little woman who has toiled and complainc d not who has pinched, and saved, and murmured not, is the one to whom the State and Nation is most greatly indebted. These are the women who lead men up to that higher and noblorlnanhood, to that shrine, wboro, liko knights of old, they bend tho knee of homage, not to beauty, but to worth and royal manhood.?Farmers Advocate. DOMESTIC BEC1FES I Ci'hdi.ep Eoos.?Pour boiling water on to fresh eggs aud rcniovo the dish containing them to the back part of tho stove^ where the water will keep warm and let them remain ten or twelve inmates. The white of the eggs will then hi cooked uniformly with the yolk, and the whole will bo superior in flavor aud digestibility to an egg which has bccu boiled. Codfish in Cream.?Pick up into small pieces, fish that has been soaked in cold tVatcr over uight. Heat- uiilk or cream boiling liot and add the fish with a spoonful of flour that has bceu mixed sirooth with a little cold milk. As soon as it boils up, break a Ircsb egg into it and Btir just long enough to cook the egg and then.remove it at once from the fire. Poi'-overs.?Ouc cup of flour, one cup of milk, one egg, a pijcn of butter the size of an egg, melted, and a pinch of suit. Bake in gem pnus. Make the mixture perfectly smooth aud free from lumps, by addiug the milk very slowly to the flour and stirriug constantly. Beat the eggs and add last. Have the paus hot and buttered, and fill them half full of mixture, then set directly into a quick oven. Fifteen minutes will bako them, and they will justify the name by rising far above the limits of the pan. The secret of having pop-overs just right, is to have everything all ready before you begiu, and then make quick work of the mixing and baking. These are also sometimes called egg muffins. Words of Wisdom.?Chicago, April 29.?A large meeting of workingmcn and laborers from the Union Stock Yards was held last evening to ratify the eight hour movement. The mcctiug was addressed by George N, Scacts, editor of the Knights of Labor, of Chicago, who took occasion to give his views on the strikes in a manner that astonished some of his hearers. He declared strikes to be foolish, no matter how just tho cause of the strikers might be, and said they were a weapon which 110 workingmau could use without doiug harm to himself. They wore to be avoided above all things. There had never yet been a strike where the strikers made a permanent gain of everything they demanded. The speaker ridiculed the action of tho two hundred furniture workers on the North side, who had gone out aftor receiving every, thiug they asked because the same men iu Cincinnati are not similarly favored. At prescut the sole aim of the working classes should be the cstablishmeut of the eight hour system?not by striking, but by appointing committees of cool-headed men to talk the matter over in a friendly spirit with the bosses. William Glcason was tho next speaker, lie also warned the men against following the lead of the wooden-headed fellows who were so fond of ordering strikes, and told them they could always gaiu more by exercising judgment and commou souse. George Schilling, the labor agitator, then introduced a resolution declaring for the eight hour day, and providing fur the appointment of delegates from every department of every packing house in the stock yards to meet representatives of the different companies to-night, for the purposo of reaching an amicable uudcrstaudiug on the eight hour <j\iestion. The resolution was adopted. One day in a Chicago depot, a conductor who had very JoDg hands, huug ono of them out of a oar window. Shortly after he felt some one pulling and feeling first of one finger and then the other. lie stuck his hend out of the window and saw a man, who said: ' Say, Mister, how do you sell bananas apiece A modern wit defines the difference betweou men aud women; "A man gives forty cents for a twcnty-five-ccnt thiog be wants, and a women gives twenty-five cents for a forty-cents thing she docs uot wunt." First small boy?"Say. Jonuie, where aro you in Sunday school?" Second small boy?"Ob. we re in the middle of Original Sin." First small boy?"That ain't much; we're past redemption." ? Ou a tombstone iu Texas:?"lie remained to the last a decided friend and supporter of Democratic principles and measj ures. Blessed are the dead who dio in the Lord." * The town of Gleoelg, Md., is reraarkan ble for the fact that its name spells the same backward or forward. That's what'a the matter with Hannah. Mr. Epps Brown, of Newberry County, a few nights ago discovered a colored man trying to break into his barn. When the rogue saw that he was discovered he shot at Mr. Brown and ran. Mr. Brown tired nt hitn as he was run. ning away but failed to hit him. The .Savannah Valley Builroad has reached Rocky River and the bridge over that stream is nearly finished.
