It was vacation, and wc concluded to take a trip to the 1 Folia We got aboard the cars at N and 1 were soon traveling very font toward our desti- I ration. ?- 1 I We liad jnst seated ourselves, and prepared ' for a comfortable smoke, when In came the conductor, and who "should it be but our old friend Fred.

After the common salutations? 1 " How are you, old fel'ow 1" ete^ had passed, Fred, aaid he had some business for us to attend ) *. ~ Otft with it, oldchtrm !" said wc?" anything ' at alt<will be acceptable, so let us have it." " Well, boys," said Fred, in a very confidential 1 tone, " in that next coach there is as loving a 1 pain, as it wss ever my lot to sea. They are go- ' ing down to II?? to get married, and now if w yea can have any fun over it, just pit oh in. They tnnst be cared for, and I do not know who can ' do It better than you." In a moment Fred was gone, and we set oar ' heeds together to form a plan for "taking core of the lovem" "I have It, boys," said Bill SeewcVs, wc must. ' make that girl think that her lover Is married?" " That's it.

The girl, thinking, 1 suppose, that she roust give her lover nil the sent, had taken a seat npon his knee; and he, for the purpose of protecting her, of course, had thrown . - liia arm around her waist j and so they sat, as loving as two doves. * All this I gathered at a glance. Stepping up to them I said: r Why, Jones, what in the denee are you doing with this girl f The girl arose hastily and seated herself on the seat. "See here, stranger," said the fellow, ** you are a mite mistaken, my name ain't Jones,* " Why Jones," sntd I, - you certainly have not left your wife and children, and tried to pahn yourself off for a single man, hava you?" "F tell you my name ain't Jonaa?ita Qarnev. ' It never vh JonM; tain't a goin' to ho Bather." I merely shook my heed, end peeeed on to enother eeet, to eee the result of the fiin. Hie girl looked wild efter I set down, b?t 1 Jones, mliat Uerpcr, soon convinced her thet I 1 wis mWteken. About the time they got to feeling quite well again, in eemc Klliolt Gregg.

Jnekson, Bill Seevers and Jim Byers entered, and of course their attention was called to Hnrper by his loud talking. They stepped op to him and said : " Why, Jones, what is all this fuss about?" This was more than Ilarpor could stand. lie leaped upon a seat " Now !" says he, " my name ain't Jones, an' I i can lick the feller as says it is!" 1 By this time we had got to II?? and onr ' friend Fred came into the car, and made Harper keep quiet. The girl that wouldn't be " splioed" requested Fred to help lier on the train that was going back to N?, which he did, and the no- ' torious Jones, alia* Harper, followed her. We learned afterwards that he proved himself to be Bill Itnrper, instead of Bill Jones, and he and hia "gal got spliced." " I Have Missed it at Last" 80 said a gentleman in th? Fulton street meeting, rising to soya few words. "These words," said he, "fell from the lips of a young man who died last night. They were uttered to the attending physician, who was sitting at his bedside, and had just told him that he had but a shot time tolivo. " What do you say T" inquired the atttentivo and kind hearted physician. " 1 have missed it after all," said the young man, despairingly. u What hare you missed F again the physician inquired. "What have t missed ! Doctor, I have missed securing my salvation." "How sol" "IIow sol Oh 1 it is a sal storysaid the youth. " I was awakened not long ngo. My conscience told mo whntn wretched, wicked sinner I had been. The Holy nil-it was striving with me. When I was in deep distress for my uui, j resoivea to nismsM the subject or religion from my thoughts. I was urged to make sure Lite day of grace, by repentance and fuith in Christ. I begged to postpone the subject for a little time. I had to promise myself, however, that I would take it up again, when it would be a more favorable time to attend to it. I had to promise myself that I would at some future time, not very remote, be a Christian, and ' make my election mre ' But uow 1 have missed it. This is my end story." "It is not too late even now," said the doctor, "Doctor, yon know not what 3*00 say. I tell jron I have missed it at la*C" " Oh 1 say not so. Remember the thief on the eross.

Doctor "?and there was a >anse ; then he said slowly and with great emthasia, " I've missed It at last." " This was aaid with such a tone and exproa lion of despondence, as no language can describe. He turned his face all round the room, as if earnestly, yet vainly, seeking some desired obect. Then burying his face in hts pillow, oxsiaimed, in an agony whioh rang with a groan .hrougli all the house?'Oh, I have missed it.'" "So he died."

Woman's Lot*?A Beautiful Incident Six years ago, eays the Milwaukie Gazette, a young man just entering into life, under the influence cf rum, ooiumittcd a crime againat eocie ty, was tried in this city, convicted and sent to Wnmpurv, where he served his time out behind the prison bars. Before his trial, a fair girl had promised to link fortunes with him, and cruel was the blow to her. But site loved him. AH through hie six years did she wait for his releaseWith a true woman's heart, she believed him innocent?innocent, at least, before Ood ; and like tho magnet, she held on her steady way, her heart over point to the future. Long were the years to him. Slowly passed the hour*. So. couds were minutes, minutes were hours, lionrs wore days, days weeks, weeks months, months years, and years were like ages. Every toiling of the prison bell struck deep upon Ins heart, and every sunset took another thread from the long tkcin. Nor were the Honrs less weary to her.? Ilope, that blessed angel', sat by her day by day ( and reposed on her pillow at night. Some there were who laughed at her holy love, who sneered so meanly at her lov<r, a prisoner miles away.? But little it mattered to her. Others might I laugh?eho wept; others might point to n man in prison garb, toiling away from-inorn tiil night, with but one star to guide him on. She mw but the honest soul that might be saved, lost, and. woman that she was, nerved herself to hedt their jibes and jeera. . . Blessed words oame to him in liis lonely cell, words of love, of kindness, and stronger grew the heart of him who lind truly is butter angel to watch over his unbroken fortune. Each word from her lightened the hours as they slowly went by, and larger grew the day on which liberty was to come. Men visited him and with careless word or speaking eye, threw into his cell a maddening thought on which his soul must feed and tremblingly shrink to the darkest corner of his living temple. Then ]a letter from her would dash aside the dark curtains and beckon him on to a spot of sunshine outside, and beyond his prcseut reach. So passed the years. Friends died and he wept over them. The sin was long since atoned for, nnd at last the little spot of sunshine crept into his cell, and entering by the key-hole of his door led him forth in the bright rays of liberty. lie was conducted to the office of the prison bv McGraw. nn.l a citizen* dress in place of a prison suit given liim, and led into an inner room whore stood (he who, years before, had promised before God to be bis.

The same amount of space could not be better filled than with the following beautiful extract: Old! call you me ? Aye! when the Almighty spoke creation into birth, I was there. Then was 1 bora amid the bloom and verdure of Ihirndisc. I gazed upon the young world, radiant with celestial smiles, I rose upon the pinions of the first morn, and caught the sweet dew drops as they fell and sparkled on the bowers of the garden.

Leaving a stranger without a sent, 8. A want of reverence for superiors. 9. Heading aloud in company without being asked. 10. Receiving a present without some manifestation of gratitude. 11. Making yourself the topic of conversation. 12k Laughing at the mistakes of others, 18. Joking others in company. 14. Correcting older persons than j*oUrself, especially parents. 15. To commence talking before others arc through. 10. Answering questions when put to others. 17, Commencing to eat as soon ss you arc at the table. 18.

Faitii.?What is fnilh 1 Once upon a lime the peoplo went up to the house of God to pray for rain. The pnstor was surprised to see a little Sunday school scholar lugging along a large umbrella. " Why, Mary," said he, " what made you bring tlmt umbrella on such a lovely morning as thief" Tile rhihl, gazing on his face with evident surprise at the inquiry, replied: " Why, sir, I thought as we were going to pray to God for rain, I'd want the umbrella." And the rain did come; while the congrega uon went nome in tiie sliower, the little girl was sheltered hy her umbrella. The child had faith in God. All Christians are supposed to be converted, and to be " as little children." Would thut all who profess to be the children of God, were like children, "strong pi faith, giving glory to God." If such faith as this pervaded the hearts of the members of the Churches, every meeting would be a revival, ami the world would soon be converted. Why not have this faith T It is sustained by reason and by the Scriptures. "And the desciples said, Lord increase our faith."?.V. (X Adoocate.

Therefore, as a woman has three side-bones and a man has only one, of course sbe is three times a& tender as a man is, and is in duty bound to repay that ten^ferneas of which she robbed him. And how did she rob bim of his side-bone ? Why, exactly as she robs bis pockcte now-a davs of liU loose change?she took advntnge of him when he was asleep. 44 But as woman is more tender than man so is man more forgivener than woman, llieifore I won't say anything more abcmt the side-bone or the small change, but in-, vite you all to jine my traln? fbr I'm A big shepherd out our way, and fare sumptuously every day on purple and fine linen. 44 When I first landed on the shores of the Great Salt Lake, 1 wasn't rich in weemen, I had but one poor lad yeo, but men. is skecrcc and weemen is plenty, and like a keerful shepherd I begin to Increase my flock. Weetuen heard of us and of our lovin' ways, and they kept a porin' In.? Tliey come from the North, and they come from the South, they come from the East and they come from tho West, they come from Europe, they come from Aisliey, and a few of 'em from Afrikey, and from bein* the miserable owner of one old yoe, I became the joyful shepherd of a mighty flock, ? -:A. . ? > ? - - v mi n nuinri sprmKlin OI IRniDS, TrlBlticr and fatter than any body else's, and I've still got room for a few more. 44 As I said before, I'm not lalkin' pertickler for my benefit, but for yourn?foe mm it skecrce and iccemrn is plenty. Still I'd little rather you'd go along with tne than not, perticklcr you fat one with the caliker t-un bonnet. l)on't hesitate, but take the chance while you can get it, and I'll make you the bellyoe of the flock. I'll lead yon j through green pastures, where you may ca! per iu the sunshine, and, as you are in pretty good condition already, in course of time you shall bo tho fattest of the flock. Jino in, jine in; jine my train ; jino it now; for men is skeerce and sbeemen is ]>len(y" The appeal was irresistible. At the last account 44 the fat woman with the caliker sun bonnet" had "jincd in," and two or throe others were on the fence, with a decided leaning toward the 44 Keerful Shepherd.'* A Lono Nose.?There ia a rich atory told of a good minister at Montague, Her. Mr. Moody, who has been most liberally furnished by nature with that very neeeeaar,T imnnniliinfa (a .v.? ' ' ? w* ,J iu n mnil r> litw?HIS nOS?. It is said that while at a public dinner on a certain time, a gentleman who sat opposite to Mr. M., thinking to get a good joke nt his expense, remarked, in a loud tone : " Mr. Moody, there is a fly on the end of your nose." This threw the company into a roAr, fcr the tone of the voice conveyed the iinpreasion that the end of the noae was so far from Mr. Moody that he would not know a fly was on it unless some kind fiiend told him. Hot Mr. Moody completely turned the tables, by remarking, In his cool, dry way : 44 Well, Mr. , you are nearer the Jly than I am ; won't ton please brush it off?"
