HOOK MY FROCK.
A day or two ago Justice Jecko, of St. !
Louis, received a call from a young man and r
a young woman, each of whom was the bearer i
of a portly carpet-sack. : 1
"Be you the squire?" asked the young man ! j
with an air of diffidence. t
"I be. Do you want to get married ?" i
"Yes, sir. We want it done right away, | >
don't we, Mollie ?"
"Yes, Squire," said Mollie, "but hain't j s
you got a dressing room, where I can put on ! r
my bridal.dress and titivate a little?" I a
"I am sorry to say my bridal chamber is I
crammed full of hobby horses, toys, trinkets ! 1
and stuff seized by the constable from a ' s
fancy store. However, there it is, if you | \
think there is room enough for you to dress." c
The bride looked into the room adjoining ;
the office, and declared that she could make j c
out to slip on her dress in it. With carpet- j f
sack in hand, she entered the lumber room j v

luiu uiuseu uic uuui. xiic unue-gruuiu asacu t
for another room, saying he had his wedding f
fixings in his valise, and would like to put t
them ou. He was told there was no other r
room vacant, and that he would have to take c
a seat and wait until the bride had enrobed
herself and then he could take his turn. r
The young man sat down with an air of s
impatience, holding the carpet-sack between s
his knees and twirling his thumbs. Cousta- c
ble McKeary, whose appearance is that of a a
Don Juau of the most killing type (although {
in reality he is the chastest man that ever t
chased a juryman or replevined a widow's 1
parlor furniture,) had been writing at his t
desk when the bridal party entered, and now i
arose and passed into the passage way leading a
down stairs. The young man with the carpet f
sack turned red in the face as he saw the a
door close upon the constable. He evidently
thought McKeary had gone into the store- g
room where the bride was making her toilet, t
He became nervous, threw his carpet-sack s
into the corner, arose, sat down in another s
chair, and was extremely fidgetty. The more a
he tried to conceal his emotion the redder his i
face grew. At length, unable longer to en- t
dure the agony of doubt and mistrust he ran s
to the door of the store-room and entered. A t
scream was heard, and then the young man i
returned looking very sheepish.
This rash act of the bridegroom's came {
near breaking off the match, but the Justice t
explained to the bride that it was all a mis- t
take. s
"Are you a married man, Squire?" asked i
the bride, putting her face to a crack in the t
door. S
"Yes, I have been married ever so long." j
"Well, then, I wish you would just come c
in here and hook my frock."
The Justice complied with the modest re- 1
quest, and in a moment the bride came out in 1
gorgeous attire. 1 he bridegroom then entered
the room and made his toilet, and when he
returned the ceremony was performed without
delay. Then the bride re-entered the storeroom
and changed her dress, and the happy
couple marched out, with their caj-pet-sacks,
highly elated.

"I Don't Care if I Do."?In olden time,
before the Maine laws were invented, Wing
kept the hotel at Middle Granville, and from
his well-stocked bar furnished "accommodations
to man and beast." He was a good
landlord, but terribly deaf. Fish, the village
painter, was afflicted in the same way.
One day they were sitting by themselves in
the bar-room. Wing was behind the counter
waiting for the next customer, while Fish was
lounging before the fire with a thirsty look,
casting sheep's eyes occasionally at Wing's
decanters, and wishing most devoutly that
some one would come in aud treat.
A traveler from the South, on his way to
Brandon, stepped in to inquire the distance.
Going up to the counter, he said :
"Can you tell me, sir, how far it is to Brandon?"
"Brandy?" says the ready landlord, jumping
up; "yes, sir, I have someat the same
time handing down a decanter of the precious
liquid.
"You misunderstand me," says the stranger,
"I asked how far it was to Brandon."
"They call it pretty good brandy," says
Wing. "Will you take sugar with it?" reach- ,
? i i_- p__ xi i i i i.jj..
ing, as ne spoae, lur ine uuwi auu luuuy-suuti.
The despairing traveler turned to Fish.
"The landlord," said he, "seems to be deaf;
will you tell me how far it is to Brandon ?" j
"Thank you," said fish, "I don't care if I ,
do take a drink with you."
The stranger treated, and fled.
Two WarStories.?A Southern exchange
tells of a colored trooper who did not fight
bravely. In fact, he ran away and was reprimanded
by the lieutenant, who sueeriugly
asked him if he thought the country would
have missed him much if he had been killed.
The discreet darkey replied : "Not much,
bossj'dey don't miss "de white folks much less
de poor nigger. But den I would hab miss
myself?and dat's de point wid ma!" This is
reusoning worthy of old Jack Falstaff himself.
It was some such practical and personal
argument as was used by a peace loving
Confederate, whose story was current at the
close of the war. He belonged to an artillery
company whose guns were captured by the ,
Fpdorrt! raiders. Rmartinof under the disgrace .
the commanding officer called upon his men
to recapture those guns or perish in the at- ,
tempt. If any member of the corapauy, the
captain added, was not willing to share in the ,
effort to retrieve their honor and loss, he ]
might step out of the ranks. A pale, stutter- ,
ing reb stepped forward, saying: "C-c-aptain,
if th-the Moss isn't so very gr-great, why
can't we t-take up a collection, au? p-pay for
the d-damned old g-guns.? Chicago Times.
Ratiiku Social.?Governor Powell, of 1
Kentucky, was never an orator, but his conversational,
story-telling, and social powers 1
were remarkable. His great forte lay in es- 1
tablishiug a personal intimacy with every one
he met, aod in this way he was powerful in *
electioneering. He chewed immense quauti- J
ties of tobacco, but never carried the weed (
himself, and was always begging it of every !
one he met. His residence was in Hender- '
son, and in coming up the Ohio, by that 1
place, a gentleman overheard a characteristic '
anecdote of him. A citizen of Henderson, 1
coming on board, fell into conversation with
a passenger, who made inquiries about Powell.
"He lives in your place, I believe, don't '
he?" "Yes, one of our oldest citizens." J5
"Very sociable man, ain't he ?" "Reraarka- \(
bly so." "Well, I thought so ; I think he is (
one of the most sociable men I ever met in j1
my life?wonderfully sociable. I was intro- j
dueed to him over at Grayson Springs last j 1
summer, and he hadn't been with me ten i 1
minutes when he begged all the tobacco I j'
had, got his feet in my lap, and spit all over j'
me?remarkably sociable."?Kentucky Ex- j
change.
Tough ox the Fish.?A devout clergy- j 1
man sought every opportunity to impress! I
upon the mind of his sou the fact that God 11
takes care of his creatures: that the falling j |
sparrow attracts his attention, and that his j
loving kindness is over all his works. Hap- j |
pening one day, to see a crane wading in i j
quest of food, the good man poiuted out to J i
his son the perfect adaptation of the crane to I i
get his living in that manner. "See," said J
he, "how bis legs are formed for wading! 1 <
What a long slender bill he has! Observe 1
how nicely he folds his feet when putting them ' $
in or drawiug them out of the water! He''
does not cause the slightest ripple. He is j
thus enabled to approach the fish without; ]
giving them any notice of his arrival." "My |:
son," said he, "it is impossible to look at that j
bird without recognizing the goodness of God j
in thus providing the means of subsistence." ,
"Yes," replied the boy, "I think I see the h
goodness of God, at least so far as the crane
is concerned ; but after all, father, don't you
think the arrangement a little rough on the
fish?"

RED HAIR. '
When I was about, eight years old, my; 1
nother called me to her one afternoon, to see
fl was hemming nicely a handkerchief she
lad turned down for me. After showing me
ust how to put in my needle, and exactly how cnP'
he stitches must look to be right, she took (?
ny hand in hers and said : "What a big hand i use
rou have!" ! use(l
Now, my mother's hand was extremely 1 s'ye
mall, and always looked white and delicate,' ?* ^
10 matter how much or what work she did; (ti?n,
md I couldn't help feeling that somehow 1 , :l,,d

rhen my feet were large, too, and I wore out
hoes dreadfully. I never could walk, but 1 t,Dg'

me foot and then the other. ; pr r'
But what was worse than either big hands |'dri
ir big feet, I hail red hair and a freckled jls ,n
ace. How should I ever get through the 1 ?f tli
vorld with red hair ? Aud wasn't there some-, the (
hing that would take away those dreadful ( 1
reckles? I tried buttermilk, and wheat does
>ran tea, and cucumber water ; but the obsti- ; a?d
late freckles stayed there, and remain to this vu'u
lay ; and I don't care a bit if they do. ! ,IiCai
The first thing I thought of, when I saw a j moa
lew little girl, was to notice if her hands were ! sessh
mall, and if she had black hair and a clear ] the >
kin ; and I saw pleuty that answered to this ! caun
lescription. But as I grew older, and studied ; they
dgebra, and wrote "composition," and "ci-1 Mpt'
)hered in fractions," I found that when the | him
eacher looked at the exercises on the slate or i pollt
dackboard, he never seemed to think whether 1 Pren
he hand was big or little that made the fig- j y
ires; and when I got into natural philosophy j desir

hiuking what George and Henry and Willie H
aid about them, or how they should dress utm(
hemselves up for a walk in the evening, and ; of t
nake themselves look pretty. , sllpr
But, poor me! I couldn't make myself look j Ghri
iretty. My hair would be brash and red ; i cau !

By-aud-by I grew up, as we say, to woman- W hi

1UXA1 "1IIL JUVl?" Who
were they? Those are queer names 11
'or little people, truly; but oue morning a
when we took our seats iu the cars, there just
u front of us, were Totty and "the boy," with .?m
heir nurse, and in the seat in front of them . p
were their papa and mamma. . v
When we first saw them, we wondered if ^ 01
;hey would be pleasant little neighbors during *
he long morning's ride. We thought they ?an
ivould get tired; and we have seen small .1'?re
seople and large people who were cross when 1
hey are tired. Did you ever see any such ^
leople ? st?n
Totty was a little girl not more than I aiT>
hree years old, very quiet, and so small that j ^'ou
ivhen she sat still in her corner of the seat by I 0
,he window, we could see only the top of her J0*}
lead covered with dark curly hair. She had Sa)
i book with bright-colored pictures in it, and
.vith that and her dolly she was happy. Some- a.
;imes she lifted her face to look out of the j
window, but papa had said, "Don't stand on j
:he seat, Totty," she remembered. j aPI)?
I forgot to tell you that papa did not go j to."=
with mamma and the little ones. He only I . 0
;ame to see them safely in the cars, and when ] *,rue
the bell rang he kissed the little faces, sent , ?u

with a sober look, aud went away. "So they ..ac
ire going to see grandma, and papa can't j
?o now," we thought; "but perhaps he will l?ar'
*o and see then when Saturday comes, and 8
then what a happy Sabbath they will spend rp,
ill together!" < _ Qam
"The boy," as his mother called him, Qn ^
though she called him Charlie sometimes, j.je
ivas the baby. He had lighter hair than
lotty, but had just such great blue eyes as jj tl
she had, which looked out under their long i .
lashes not half as shyly as her eyes peeped at j j, '
the stranger. He got up to the back of the j . ^
seat, and made our acquaintance by two or j ^
three long looks, iu which he seemed to make j ^
jp his mind that we would all be friends and ; ^ ^
then settled back to have a good time with 1 n
lurse- I time
More than once during the next three j
lours he pulled away Totty's picture-book, j
jut his patient little sister didn't look or : t|ig ^
speak crossly to him, but just turned to her |
lolly, as if that made it all right. Charlie ;
iven pulled her hair, and thought that was i seryj
lice fun ; but she was patient still. j ^
15y and by lie was hungry, and mamma p j.
:ook out a lunch of crackers for her ba- i
aies, and gave them a drink of milk from j "'J
:heir own little silver cup. We noticed, how- j \< a
jver, that Cliarlie got the crackers and milk i ^[a.si
Grst, and Totty waited for him. Then he ; retui
went to sleep with nurse, and Totty had a us a
happy time on mamma's lap. talking and fitter
laughing with her, peeping iuto her pocket-1 X0 j
book, and at last helping with her little hands nCss
to pack the bottle of milk, crackers, and other scul]
things, into the bag. j Himr
When the cars came to a stop in the sta- of bi
;ion, Charlie had waked from his nap, in p
rnd the whole party got out, we following and
;hem. Then we saw such a happy meeting wore
,vith the auntie who had come to meet them !f throi
[n a few minutes they were all shut iuto a worl
:oach, and rolled away to grandma's, leaving till 1
Dehind two sober old people who will not
>oou forget the pleasant ride they had with j IJ
fotty and "the boy," one summer morning. prie*
Don't you hope that Charlie will learu, as ; reco,
lie grows older, to be as patient as his little the

CHRISTIAN MODERATION.
j be sober, in ordinary language, is des-1
ive of that particular variety of the duty |
mperance which is opposite to the undue
of intoxicating liquors. But the word
by the apostle has a much more ex ten
meaning. The sobriety or temperance i
ie apostle, is another word for modcra-!
and is descriptive of that state of mind, '
influence, and behavior, in reference to ,
igs seen and temporal," "the present!
d," by which a Christian should be dis- j
lished.
ie foundation of true Christian sobriety j
aoderation lies in a just estimate of the ;
ndic and comparative value of "all that i
the world, the lust of the flesh, the lust I
? 1 If II A I. A I
ie eye, and the pride 01 me, ?an unit
jye or the flesh desires?all of which livnen
are apt to be pnuul. The Christian
not consider the wealth, and the honor,
the pleasure of this world as destitute of
e; but he sees that the value is by no!
is what the deluded worshippers of Mamsuppose
it to be. He sees that the posdu
of them cannot make hiin happy, nor
want of them make him miserable. They
ot obtain for him the pardon of his sin,
cannot transform his character, they canjive
him life in death, they cannot secure
happiness for ever. They appear to him j
ited with sin, replete with temptation, !
mint of danger.
rith these views, he is moderate iu his I
es for them, moderate in his attachment j
iem while he enjoys them ; moderate in >
regrets for thciu, wheu he is deprived of
i. This is Christian sobriety. It is for
i who have earthly relatives to be as if
had them not; for "those who weep to
i though they wept not; for those who
ce to be as though they rejoiced not; for
3 who use this world to use it as not abuit,
knowing that the fashion of this world
3th away."
ie cultivation of this sobriety is of the
jst importance to the proper periormauce
he duties of Christian obedience. The
erne love of the world is inconsistent with
stian obedience altogether. "No man
serve two masters; for either he will hate
Dne, and love the other; ye cannot serve
and Mammon." And as the supreme
of the world necessarily makes and keeps
"children of disobedience," so that undue
of the world prevents even those who are
children of God, through faith in Christ
:s," from being in so high a degree as
ought to be, "the children of obedience."
it is it that makes obedience so often to
sit a tiresome task, but the undue love of
world ; and how do the commandments of
Lord become to us not grievous, but by
victorious faith overcoming the world ?
as been finely said, that "the same eye
lot botli look up to heaven and down to
l at the same time." And the heart
I be emptied of the love of the world, that
ay be filled with the love of God, which

rated essence of all Christian obedience,
sc who are quite engrossed with earth's
uess and pleasure cannot be "seeing a
itry?a better country, that is, an heay."
They who, by their immoderate atment
to the earth, show they are at home,
lot be "strangers." The Captain of the
1's host, our New Testament Gideon, will
dwii, as his soldiers, those who lie down
ink of the stream of earth's deiight, but
those who, in passing, drink of them
their hand, as of the brook in the way.
RELIGION IN EVERYTHING.
here are a great many persons who think,
uust take care of my religion." They
} got something that they call religion,
:h they think needs to be guarded, as if
2re something by itself. Just as if one
,ld say, "I must take care of my health,"
yet should neglect his body, so that his
es are out of order, and his heart out of
t beat, and his digestion interrupted,
king he had something distinct from nis
called "health," whereas health means
dy acting right in every one of its parts.
) religion is to the soul, what health is to
body?the right ordering and use of all
acuities. Many persons seem to think
confined to certain faculties, and times,
occasions. They treat it very much as a
would a caged bird. They keep it at
e all the week, and 011 Sunday go and
it into a cage and let it sing, expecting
oice to be hushed the moment they take
it. Now this is a ruinous heresy, to think
religion is a technical element which you
separate from your business or family, or
I any part of your throbbing daily life,
itever you do, on the week day or the
jath, in the house or the street, in the
;, or the office, or the shop, in the sanctuor
the concert, or in the world?wl^atever
do at any time, or in any place, you are to
;o the glory of God. And just so far as
fail of doing this, just so far is your reII
deficient.
0 man is living a Christian life who is not
iristian in everything; in the world, in
family, in the church, in his intellect, in
leart, in his soul, in the emotions aud
stites of his nature, in his eyes, in his
ue, in his hand, in his foot, in his head?
is not a Christian everywhere, and at all
s, and in everything. To take every
lty and power that God has given us, and
g it under the divine influence, and make
t right, that is being a Christian. And
lartialisms, by just so much as they are
ialisms, are, for this very reason, misunimidinors
nr nttrversions of Christian truth.

I f^lIIE COOKING STOVES manufactured at our
y J_ works in Greensboro, N. C., give universal
n satisfaction wherever introduced. They are made
of the BKST SCOTCH PIG METAL, with heavier
and thicker plate than any other Stove in the
market, and consequently will the longer with~
stand heat and hard usage. They are of hand
some pattern and neat finish, and warranted equal
in every other respect to any Cooking Stove sold
in the United States, while it is confidently claimed
that they are the CHEAPEST. All the usual
pieces of ware and cooking utensils are furnished
with each Stove. An important consideration
with purchasers is the fact that our patterns and
sizes are never changed. Should a piece get accidentally
broken at any time, we can replace it at
tho mere cost of casting. Not sin.pl;' because it
is a home production, buton account of Its intrinsic
merits as an article of household economy, do
we ask the patronage of home purchasers. Mere
than ONE THOUSAND of these Stoves are now
in use, and among man;' others having them we \
respectfully refer to the following: R. E. Guthrie,

"Mason & Hamiin Organ Co.," to supply persons
with their unrivaled instrument, either at lowest
factory prices, for cash, or on monthly or quarterly
payments, upon whatis called the lease principle.
Thus any one by paying only a moderate

time,give it up or become purchaser; the amount
already paid being applied to the purchase. Or a
