She faded like a sweet summer flower.
So softly oat of sight
She* flsatcd into light,
Where, clad in purest white,
She Hit* at will through Heaven’s bright
bower.
Shp oped her sweet, pure eyes upon this
earth, - |
But never felt at home;
And to the jeweled dome
Her heart did ever roam,
With longings for the country of her
birth.
Too pure of heart for Sin's dark power,
Ood sent an angel band
To waft her to the land
Beyond the finite strand,
VM* now she blooms His choicest
flower.
She never passed the drear and darksome
vale.
A beam of holy light
Upon her raptured sight
Illumed her features bright,
Aud all unheard the sound of love's sad
wail.
She passed not thro’ stormy waters cold,
But Heaven’s favored one,
All earthly sorrow done,
Above the golden sun
With ecstasy she soared into the fold.

“Some time ago I told you about
Elisha raising the son of the Shn-
namite woman to life after be had
died, and you childreu were, quite
astonished,” said Mrs. B., as she
•‘gain gathored her little group
around her upon another pleasant
evening ;“uow I will relate some
thing similar that '*■ happened in
Elijah's time that he spent on
earth.”
“Elijah! was he not the man that
the Lord took away in a fiery shar
iot, mother f® said Susie.
“Yes, my dear; he did not die,
and I wiU some time tell yon of his
leaving the world in the way yon
speak of,® said her mother. -
“Now my story relates to a time
of great distress in the land of Pales
tine, ou account of the wickedness
of Ahab, the king I told yon about,
that killed Naboth, and took his
nice vineyard for himself. Well,
because be was so very bad, the
Lord told Elijah to go out of the
place, for he would not let there be
any dew or rki» for three years.®
“Didn’t everything «dry np, mo
ther, and wbero did the people get
foodf® said Henry.
“Everything did dry and parch
up under the scorching son, and the
inhabitants had to send long dis
tances to bqy corn, and many died,
as well as vast quantities of cattle.
It was a dreadful visitation of God
to withhold the rain. Do yon ever
think, children, when yon grumble
because it rains when yon want to
go out of doors, how distressing it
would be if the Lord were to say:
‘These childreu complain so much
about the rain that I won’t give
tbept any more rain for a long time,’
and theu the pretty streams would
dry up and the fountain cease to
play, the dowers and grass tarn to
hay, and we should die of famine!
for no grain or fruit could come to
perfection.®
“Oh, I should not like that a bit;
I didn’t think of the consequences
yesterday when I said I wished that
it wouldn’t ever rain again,® said
Basie.
“It is a fine thing that God don’t
act according to people’s wishes;
there would be a terrible state of
afluirs if he did. Bat to return to
Elijah. God sent him out into a
wild place where there Was a stream
called Cheritb, and hid him so no
body could find him. Then God
caused some ravens to take him
bread and flesh in the morning, and
also iu the evening. The ravens are
large birds that resemble the crow
very much, only they are a great
deal larger. They are always pick
ing np what they see, aDd flying
away to hide it, and so they were
told by God to take Elijah the bread
and meat. So the prophet lived
until the stream dried up too, for as
there was uo rain, the springs that
supplied the stream became dry, aud
of course there was then no more
water for Elijah to drink. Then the
Lord told him, to go to a town called
Zarephath and live, and that he
had directed a widow woman who
lived there to take care of him. So
Elijah went to the town, and when
he came ‘to the gate of the city, he
saw the widow woman picking up
some ’sticks, and he called to her
and said: ‘Won’t you give me a
little water to drink V and as she
started off to get it, he said: ‘Bring
me, I pray yon, a morsel of bread,
too.’ Then she said: ‘As the Lord
liveth, I haven’t a bit of bread left;
I have a little meal and a little oil
left in the cruse (which is a kind of
bottle), and that is all, and I was
now trying to pick a few sticks, so
as to make a fire and bake a cake
for my sou and myself, that wre may
eat it and then die.’ Theu Eiyah
knew that this was the widow the
Lord meant, and he said : ‘Fear not;
go and do as yon intended to, and
bake a cake, aud make me a little
cake first and bring it to me, and
after that make one for yourself and
your sou ; for the Lord God has said
to me that your barrel of meal shall
not waste, neither shall you fail to
always have oil in yonr cruse, until
he sends rain again.’ ®
“I know she wns glad to hear
that,® said George.
“Oh, yes, indeed, and she be
lieved it; for she ran right away
and baked a cake of bread as quick
as she could, and the meal did not
waste iu the barrel, nor did the oil
grow less; every time she went to
make bread, there was plenty of
meal aud oil. That was a miracle,
of course, and done by tho Lord
because she kept Elijah from starv
ing. She and her family had plenty,
also. .
“Oue day, however, her son got
very sick and died, and she went to
Elijah aud told him that her son was
dead! Then Elijah said : ‘Give thy
son to me;’ aud he took the boy up
to his own room, and he pra3*ed to
the Lord, and said: ‘O Lord my
Godl hast thou also brought evil
npou the widow that is so kind to
me, by slaying her son f Then he
stretched himself on the body of the
child three times, aud cried to God
and said: *1 pray thee let this child’s
soul come back to its body.’ And
the Lord heard Elqab, and let the
soul of the little boy return again,
aud the prophet took hiut .down
stairs to his mother and made her
heart rejoice, and she said: ‘Now I
know that thou art a man of God,
aud that the word of the Lord is in
thy inoath.' Then the prophet staid
with her for the whole time that the
famine was in the laud, and they all
had enoagli to eat.®
“Why don’t the Lokl let the souls
of children come back now after
they die, mother F’
“Because the time of miracles is
passed, aud a miracle wus always
wrought to couflrm some truth. Note
we are folly instructed by the Bible,
and don’t ueed miracles. This one
was perforated to prove to the wo
man that Elijah wfis a prophet of
the Lord, and that what be had fore
told would come to pass.® B.

Whose Fault ?
“Here, Edward, go hang m> your
cap this minute; and Mary/1 tell
yon, you inustuot do that; and dear
me, Henry, you have not carried that
package to the store, or was it to go
to the express office? I declare I
have forgotten what your father
said. You children keep np such a
noise that you drive me distracted.®
And the poor mother sighed as if all
the discomfort and annoyances of
disorderly and undisciplined house
hold should be laid at the children’s
door.
In the leisure and stillness of the
afternoon, when the children had
gone to spend the half holidny with
their grandmother, she took her sew-
ing and went to sit with a neighbor
in whose home there was always a
restfnl, blithe atmosphere, as if all
the machinery worked without fric
tion, thdugh the house was full of
healthy, wide-awake childreu. There
was very little appearance of author
ity, aud the must and must noty which
were so often on Mrs. L’s tongue,
were seldom heard there.
“How do you secure such prompt
and cheerful obedience to yonr
slightest directions I® asked Mrs. L.,
contrasting the scene with that in
her own home. “There is a great
difference in children, I believe.
Mine always seemed possessed to do
the wrong thing, and are al ways stirred
up into all kinds of mischief. Aud I
believe they all have dreadful tem
pers.®
“My children are all healthy, and
as I try to keep them busy in one
way or another, they find vent for
their activity. You know it is the
‘idle hand’ that gets into mischief.®
“But you don’t make them work all
the time !®
“OU! no, they don’t work much,
except some simple tasks that 1 re
quire every day, in order to give
them habits of steadiness and regu
larity ; but they are always occupied
in something, mostly play.®
“But how do yon secure such
prompt and cheerful obedience ?”
“I endeavor to make ray child un
derstand clearly what I require of
him, and pat him in a condition to
use his faculties freely and in the
best way. I find that my owu failure
to do a required thing often arises
from the lack of a clear comprehen
sion of what I am to do, and how to
do it, or because my power of doiug
is restricted by circumstances or per
sonal conditions. So, instead of as
saining that my child’s failure will
always arise from a disobedient tem
per, I consider that he, too, may find
the same difficulties, and I take care
to make it possible and easy for him
to obey me.®
sensible mother. I
— fathers, mothers and
teachers give/ a child so contrary and
indefinite an onjer that an older
brain could hardly understand what
was the precise thing to be done, or
the command would bo given in
such a tremendously authoritative
tone ami gjtirit that the child would
almost lose his wits, if not grown
callous under it.
There should Ik? a clour, definite
expression of what is required, aud
tho child’s attention must be scoured,
so that he shall really hear it. The
habit of listening with eye aud ear
should be early formed. Especial
care should bo taken of the manner
aud tone of voice in any exercise of
authority over a child. A harsh,
peremptory coiumaud excites opposi
tion and willful resistance. Stern
ness and severity frighten the child
into confusion and inefficiency. An
abrupt, loud-voiced teacher startles
aud then hardens the scholar. Some
persons seem to have the faculty of
rousing all that is evil in a child by
their mistakeu methods of govern
ment. The disobedience or insubor
dination can hardly bo charged a a
the child’s fault.
“Fathers, provoke not your chil
dren,® is just os much a precept of
Holy Writ, as “children, obey vonr
parents;® and the principle involved
runs through all the relations be
tween childreu aud those set in
authority over them.
“l*ot yourself in his place,” should
be whispered iu the ear of every one
having the cure of children. Let us
think with tlieir umlevclojied powers
and limited knowledge; feel with
their tender sensibilities and eager
desires ; anticipate with their bonud-
less hope aud vivid imagination;
aud cry with tlieir bitter disappoint
ments. Mother, father, teacher, ad
just yourself to the level of your
child’s eye, limit yourself to his nar
row range of vision, and you will
find yourself fiiser and tenderer in
your commands, aud his obedience
more prompt and affectionate. “Take
heed that ye offend not one of these
little ones,” is the Master’s injunc
tion. In our larger plans aud wider
spheres of work, we are apt to over
look our relations to those “whose
augels do always behold the face of
our Father.®
While swiugiug the luimuiei
against tho granite block, we may
shatter the delicate vase of rare
workmanship. Whoever speaks to
a child, touches a cord that vibrates
with answering tone. . It is a ’trifling
question whether we make mnsic or

Woman's Work
■ .V 1 17
The daily routine of Inevitable
work which falls upon the wife who
would keep home ootuforuble aud
pleasant, is so tedious aud wearying
to most women, that it is a cruelty
and folly to demand. any more from
them. “Mau’s work is from sun to
sun, but woman’s work is never
done,” is one of those true old say
ings which demonstrates itself to
every observer. Where human be
ings live, dirt accumulates with great
rapidity; dirt—that enemy of com
fort, breeder of unmentionable in
sects, generator of peatilcnce aud
death—needs to be constantly ex
punged with broom and duster, with
soap and sand aud hot water, with
scrubbing* aud scourings aud wash
ings, until the woman is disgusted
with the petty cares aud toils, the
weary steps aud frequent distrac
tions of housekeeping, aud ueed not
be blamed if she lougs for more
agreeable, less monotonous, aud bet
ter paid employment.
But what shall she do T Is there
an] trade or employment uuder the
sun that is uot mgpotoudu* ? Does
uot every man who works, from the
preacher to the stteet-sweeper, needs
do the same things every day, day
after day, until facility* and ease in
doing them is acquired; aud wheu
he has reached this point, does he
not need to continue doing the same
things every day, day after day, that
he may earn a living by his work ?
This constant and ujivaryiug repeti
tion is very wearying to woman be
cause of her extreme uervous suscepti
bility; her nature demands variety mid
frequent changes. The records of
tusane asylums show that too much
monotony of work and thought is a
frequent cause of insanity in woman.
There is certainly uo profession which
gives such variety of occupation,
and is so capable of beiug made by a
woman of taste aud cultivation an
agreeable and pleasant employment,
as the profession of house keeping.
The poorest woman may beuefit soci
ety by faithfully doiug her duty here
—and the richest — ah! there, in
scarcely a limit to her possibilities.—-

Clergymen ! Sore Throat.
We have communications asking
advice ou this subject. The minis
terial malady seems to be on the in.
crease. There are several causes
why clergymeu are more subject to
the “throat-ail® then are lawyers,
legislators, lecturers, siugers, drama!
isU mid other talking personages.
The clergyman leads a more seden
tary life. He is more in doors. He
is more con lined to his desk in calcu
luting Ills labors and arranging his
sermons. Moreover, clergymen, as a
class, are reckless iu the matter of
hygienic habits. This is not so mncU
because they arc not intelligent with
respect to health conditions, as it is
because they have little self-owner
ship. They are liable to be called
away any inoincut, aud to be requir
ed to do extra duty at homo at any
moment. Ilencc they are usnally
too busy with other subjects to at
tend to health matters, even if they
have time to study them. They are
apt to interpret the injunction of the
Apostle, “Take no heed of what ye
shall eat, drink, or put on,® too liter
ally. They may have a wholesome
regard for what they put ou, because
selecting or beiug measured for a
suit of clothes, or for clothes enough
to last: a year, only requires a few
minutes. But easing aud exercising
take time ; and so does the prepara
tion for them. 8o does the prepara
tion after them. If the hurried min
ister undertakes to digest his text
for the next sermon while he is eat
ing his dinner, he will certainly not
digest the dinner iu the best manner,
whatever may happen to the text.
He cannot live a “fast life® with im
punity more thau others.
Ministers should have a play
ground, or play room—some sort of
a gymnasium, with a museum at
tached of pictures, or objects of
natural history or art. These would
induce them to exercise regnlarly
and compel them to sec something in
teresting while cxercisiug, so they
should not lose the benefit of the ex
ercise by studying theology mean
while. It should be a religions duty
with them to spend half an hour be
fore each meal, and an hour after, iu
the museum, when not otherwise
pleasantly exercised. They shonld
at all events have something to see,
to do, or to suffer, that would pre
vent study for certain hours of each
day.—From Science of Health.
Extemporising
Good speaking is better than good
reading. Preachers especially should
be free from the trammels of parclq
uieut. Tbeir message is direct, per
sonal, to the conscience, the heart
aud will, and calls for immediate
actio u. Success depends more npon
convincing the jwdgincnt, moving
the feelings, inspiring enthusiasm,
thau upon gratifying the taste. Their
theme demands strength, warmth,
persuasiveness, more than artistic
finish, and these are attained in ex
temporaneous speaking more perfect
ly than in reading. Educated miuds
are strongly tempted to sacrifice
force to finish; they delight iu finely-
turned sentences, well wrought fig
ures, beautiful tropes and similes,
and are reluctant ta sacrifice them
to force aud warmth. But common,
active, worldly men are not fastidi
ous. They call for substance, aud
arc more affected by stroug, direct
presentation of facts and logicr than
beauty of expression; they think
more of the keenness of the blade
tliau the ornament of the hilt, or the
flash of the |K>lislicd surface. Preach
ers of the Gospel are sent to con
vince, iMsrsnade, convert; aud the
more directly their thoughts aud
feelings are pressed upon their hear
ers tho more successful they will be
iu their efforts, the more converts
will they make.
But many find ik difficult to speak
well. Indeed, vc»$* few can do so
without careful uffd incessant dis
cipline and drill. Yet those who
have talent enough to write a ser
mon can become accomplished speak
ers if they will devote as much time
aud labor to it as they do to style
and force in writing. No man be
comes a good writer without effort,
and in most cases it costs an im
mense amount of hard work to at
tain to tolerable skill. We ex{>ect
to work for ability to write well;
why should we uot work equally
hard to become effective speakers ?
Many too readily coucladc that they
can not succeed, ah^l lienee neglect
to use the menus of success and
plead that thej- are obliged to write
and read if they preach at all.—
Whereas if they would work as hard
and long, and constantly to develop
power to speak as they do to write
they would soon excel in this noblest
aud most natural method of utter
ance. The power of sjieech is tho
glory of man, and none should ndinit
inability to learn to s|>eak well.
Home-lUd« Fertilisers.
To a good fanner it is a luxury to
have a good heavy crop of any kind
of vegetable growth to'turn under
iu plowing a field for a crop. The
barbarous practice of firing a stubble
field to clear the way for the plow,
is, we are glad to know, only con
tinued by barbarians. Sometimes the
savagery of firing a straw-stack to
dear it away is seen, but that depth
of reckless ignorance is rare. The
difficulty in procuring fertilisers in
sufficient quantities, at a cost within
the limits of the farmer’s parse, or
labor, is becoming each year more
serious. Any information that will
lead to a greater suooess in this
difaction will be valuable.
for fall crops, the best tum-uuder
is, of coarse, clover; but this takes
a year’s growth. The only hint wo
can give iu regard to this is that the
clover field should not be (Matured
early iu the spring. I set the plants
get a good start—they should have
to the first of Juue, at least, to grow
undisturbed; by that time they will
be so far ahead of the cattle aud
hogs that pasturing will not mate
rially reduce the quantity. We see
it advocated to sow a wheat or bar
ley field in the spring with clover for
turning under iu the fall, but the
growth is so small in that time that
we do not believe it will pay.
For the corn crop the best turn
under is rye. Sow in the fall, uot
later than the first of September.
Even in light prairie lands it will
stand the winter sufficiently well.
If too rank, it can be kept down by
pasturing. The stalk blades and
| roots are rich in saccharine matter,
and haying all the elements of corn,
is an admirable feeder of the young
corn-plants. The farmer who can
whirl under a heavy croj) of rye in
April will be pretty snre of a heavy
erop of corn. Aside from this, it
pays excellently as an early spring
pasture.
For the more concentrated in a
uures every fanner has large re
sources of his owu. A place shonld
be act apart for the reception of the
remains aud carcasses of all animals
slaughtered or dyiug upon the farm.
Tho point selected should not be
subject to washing from rain. The
hair aud all offal of )iork or beef
should be gathered up and deposited
in this compost heap and covered
with earth. Dead animals should
be buried in it If they are left
upon the surface nearly the whole
mass is dissipated iu uoxiotis gases.
If covered with a few inches of loam
these are absorbed by it, and the
whole mass becomes the richest ma
nure, not odorous or in auy way nn-
ptenauut to handle. The bones will
not yield their nutriment to plants
so readily as if they were pulverised,
but that is a small matter; get them
under the surface in your fields, and
the crops will use them np. The
roots of auy growing plant will seek
out a boue if withiu reach and twine
around it, and soon extract the phos
phates and other soluble substances
from it.
A straw-stack cau be reduced to
mauur© rapidly by cartiug a few
loads of earth upon it, ami by
making it possible for the farm-stock
to get upon the top of it. The earth
will keep it wet and hasten decom
position, and the stock will soon
tiample it level with the gronnd.
It should be a rule that fire should
not be applied to auy vegetable sub
stances in the fields. The little ex
tra trouble in getting them under
is well repaid by the additional rich
ness they give to the soil.

Preserving Turnips in Winter
David Lamlreth & Sou, of Blooms-
dale, Pa., iu a treatise ou the turnip,
give the following instructions as to
preserving the roots aud feeding
them out to stock.
For wiutor feeding we preserve all
roots iu pitB—uot monads, as made
iu some localities—narrow pits after
this fashion: Select a suitable spot,
near the stables if practicable, but
surely where the drainage is good,
an iudispeusabie prerequisite; dig a
trench sixteeu inches wide, aud as
many or more inches in depth, the
length us conveuieut or necessary.
Iu this place the topped bulbs, and
cover with the earth dug out of the
trench, using a little more in addi
tion as Winter approaches. If cold
may be expected in severity, place
over all loug stable manure, or any
thing which will impede the entry
of frost, without creating warmth.
Thus we have found roots of any
and all description—Ruta Bogus,
common turnips, carrots, beets, pars
nips—to keep w'ell. They are acces
sible at all times, and when needed
may be removed in larger or smaller
quantity as desired. Altogether, it
is better than mounds, which being
elevated, arc exposed to frost, nml
require care in construction. In the
pits described we annually keep
beets and carrots far into the Spring
—indeed, we have fed our working
oxen with beets, to their great de
light, up to July 1st.
