The.Evils ot'IIot Bread, -
Tiers is no law in this country to pre
vent the Qpnsampi ion of hot bread hut
the law of common sense, and, unfortun
ately. that is a dead letter as t govern
ing principle in the lives of * great many
people. That hot bread iu ninq cases
out of ten will produce dyspepsia is
no newly discovered fact, and especial
ly ie this terrible result sure to follow
nersietent indulgence on the part of
H)oae whose pursuits are quiet. Indoors
and sedentary. And yet the reform
ers, or men that call themselves such—
the men and women who 4 Work them-
aptvra Into g white beat over the sale
of a glass ofclder—will go on year af
ter year, not only making no outcry
against this pernicious Indulgence, but
Hctunly filling themselves up day by
day with the hot and polsonou* gases
*g thw- ova**. Thk« servant of the
house-wife can be made as terrible a-
stomach destroyer as the distillery,
and the sworn foes of the latter are
apt to be Its beat patrons. Dyspepsia
paints the nose aud spurs the temper
as surely as dram drinking, and many
sufferers from the former, though by
their own wilful acts, inveigh the most
loudly against the latter. A wHI-de
fined case of jim-jams is the climax
to a course of Intemperance, and
warns the vlotlm that bis alte-native Is
death or Immediate reformatioD. But
tho dyspepsia t bat ‘hot bread, mince
pie, and kindrod abominations cause,
has no sodden warnings. Tbe man
io uses them goes on making both
self and those around him wretch
ed, and refuses to ackuowledge that
be is a sinner above those whose light
er faults he fiercely condemns.

extracting the money it Oootniaed,
put it back into her hami, whiio he

Tut mug at a bend In the, road to
look back, he saw her standing where
he had left her, tho tnonmig sun
ehkdtig down upon her fair hair and
' white-robed figure, and then went on
with an ache at his. heart that not all
his high hopes could smother.
Walter Oakdaie’a experience in the
efty at the outset was similar to that
of thousands of other udveutums
Into Its ficrre vorrpx.
Alone and without friends, the I
young man soon found his courage
o<zVng out under an uninterrupted
series of failures. Ready and eager
to work, he found the granting of the
bare privilege to labor a favojL which
he could not procure. Every opening
seemed to be blocked by a hundred as
eager as himself. The hardships he
had spoken of so bravely were not
long it/preseutiug themselves.
For a w'hile he managed to procure
the means of ths meagerest existence
by uninitiated toil of brain and body.
At this time he often lay awake at
night from sheer fatigue, longing for
tbe'Bcent of the pines and new-mown
hay upon the old farm, and ready to
sacrifice all bis hopes for the privilege
of standing once more beeide Prim-,
roee, to feel the pressure of ber Soft
band. ‘ •
. .But his pride was not yet broken.
It was too late to go back now. He
would not admit blmaelf cot qpere 1.
He had not the courage to eoefsss his
mistake and return to tbe peaceful lot
he ‘'had so foolishly called himself
from.
And shortly Ms eff drs sppmtirhod s

fiuug uriatud him and a voloe,strange
ly familiar, spoke some smothered
w rds of endearment into his dull esr
LehM-ame insi iisibie.
- A long, dreamy Interval seefned to
elapse amt he awoke to conedouenrfc*
lu’thedAoad light of day. The room
io which he lay was hit. ow n chamber
at the farm. Was this the reality?
Had all the past been merely a hid
eous dream? lie knew that he was
very weak, and that he must have
been very near to death.
W’hile he Ity confusedly specula
ting upon his position, the door open
ed and Primrose ewered. Hbe looked
sadder and paler than when he bad
patted with ber a year before ; but a
bright watm smile broke over her face
as she saw that lie was awake.
My poor Yv'alter! she said, kneeling
j beside him, and coveviug her face
with her hands.
It is all true, then ? whispered he.
Yes, sho sobhed. You have been
vety siek. YVe were both very near to
death Walter.
You know that I did not iqtend to
close my weakness and failure with a
I thought,
my way to
you nod home, i was mad with hun
ger aud hardship.
I know—I know, she Bobbed. 1
have learned all the t-orrowful story. I
had not heard from you for so long
that I feareiFsorrietbittg had beflllcu
you. I came to the city to see you.
All day I pad searched for you in
vain." It«*vas the actiof Providence
that I saw you, at uigbrfall on your
way to the river. 1 Your tattered
-eiuiheOr your poor, pale faca and wtld
manner told me all. I hurried after
you hut did not reach you until you
had fallen iuto the water. I knew I
could hoi l you up if aid cameepeedly.
It did come. Walter, at the last mo-
d you were saved.
With misty eyes he looked down at
her.
You were willing to sacrifice your
dear life for one so worthless as mine,
be said, chokingly. Wjiy did you do
it? - ■- * . , *
I loved you. Walter, she replied,
simply.
For my foolish pride and ambition I
have been heavily punished, he eald,
solemnly. Had I but known it, here
was the goal at which a nobler man
than I might have reated thankfully.
You have saved my hfs,' PrTmrooe ; U
is yours. It shall be -the effort of my
future to he worthy of your love. Will
you trust me?
For answer ehe merely look'
him with eyes io which
neither doubt nor distrust.

Tliereare to be twoeoKpses this month,

thatapaitmeut the mystery was re
vealed. The robes of the lady were
upon tbe floor, and scattered over tbe
room were subs of boys’ apparel, sim
ilar to that worn by the mulatto. On
the table was a cosmetic that would
statu thenklu alight delicate brown. -
I was rolled for a surety ; tbe lady
had eeca|>od lu the guise of a messen
ger. I should have detected tbe ruse;
I felt humiliated and determined to
redress my error. 1 knew she would
not remain In the city an Instant lon
ger than usenesary. i hurried to her
uauker’* and found she bad drawn
the amount due her so hour before.
“Who presented the checks?” I
asked the clerk.
“A mulatto boy. It was made pay
able to bearer."
There was yet a chance. The
Fiench steamer left within an hour ; It
was possible she would seek that
means of escape. I j imped into a cab
and arrived ten tniuuus before she
left ibe wharf—just in time to assist
an aged, decrepit gentleman into the
uablii.
There were few passengers; none
answered the description of tbe person
I sought. 1 s.tood on tbe wharf watch
mg the receding vessel until it disap
peared. I was in the act of turning
away when a hackman approached mo
with the remark:
“Mr. F., did you see that old man
on board ; ho had a long white beard
and Imir that fell on his shooldet.r
“Yes.”
“Well, sir, there’s Eomcthiog curious
about him.’
“Why ?”
“Why, sir, when he got Into my car
rlage he whs a mulatto boy, aud when
be got out he was an old man.’
1 will not repeat the expression
used then—ir was neither polite nor
refined--for I knew the vessel would
be far out to sea before ehe could be
overtaken. I was foiled by a woman,
nor could I help rejoining that the had
escaped.
A man, having lost his wife, was ac
costed by a sympathizing friend, who
remarked upon his woe begone appear
attce. “Well, I guess you would look
thin, too,” was the melancholy rejoinder,
“ if you had to get up before daylight,
make tbe fires, draw water, spirt wood,
and feed ths cattle—all before break-
last. I just tell you what it it, if I
don't get somebody tc fill poor dear
sainted Susie's place, I will be resting by
ber side before many weeks shall lutve

Here Is a capital lesson that m*y be
impressed upon tbe memory of both
young and old ; Mr. Spurgeon,In walk
ing a little wsy out of London to preach,
chanced to get bis pantaloopa quite
muddy. A good deacon met him at
tbe do<>r and desired to get a brush
and take off some of the mud, “Oh,
no,’’ said Mr. 8., “don’t yon see It ie
Wet, and if you try to Itfush It now,
you will rub thy stain into, tbe doth.
Let it dry, when it will come off easy
enough and leave no mark.” Bo, when
men speak evil of u* falsely—throw
mud at tie—don't be in a hurry about
brushing it off. Too great eagerness
to rub it off Is apt to rub it in. Let tt
dry; by and by, if need be, a little
effort will remove it. Don’t foster
scandal about yourself and others, or
trouble in society, or in church, by
hate to do something. I/*t it alone;
It will be more easily eradicated than
you think in the first beat of exdte-
ment. Time baa a wonderful power in
such matters. Very many things In
tltia>world will be easily got over by
Judiciously “letting them dry.”

Tho Fum Ike wllver Dollar.
Au interesting ptory in ounoeotion
with the last stiver dollar has come to
light. The secret has come out as to
who the young lady was that aU to
Mr. Morgau, the designer, as a model
for the head which appears oa tbs
cola. The lady who haw thus been
ndaed to fame, and whose name will
h«> chronicled In bletory, is Miss Anna
W. Williams, residing with her Wid
owed mother at 1023 Spring Garden
st-Hot, Philadelphia. In 187C, when
Mr. Morgan woe making designs for
the coin, ha was Introduced t > the lady
by a friend of tbe family. He desired
to have a true representative of Amer
icau beauty tmblaxioed upon the
coin, and the profile of Miss Williams
appeared to him aa the best approach
to It be bad seen. The lady, wbo ia of
a very modeat and' retiring dispnel
Uoo, was induced to sit, and after four
or five Interviews sufficient sketches
bad been obtained to proceed with tbe
work. Tbe artist wrought up the face
afterward to Ito present appearance, as
it Ib shown upou the coin. It would
be Impossible to recognise in It any re
sera ula nee to Mina Williams. Tbe Gre
cian nose ho 1 tbe delicate lip* bad

the full rounded chin resembles more
that of Mr. Morgan’s wife. MIm Wil
Hams Is a blonde and considered quite
pretty. Hhe is a teacher In tbe girl’s
department of the House of Refuge,
and about 21 years of age. This sets
at rest tbe numerous stories which
iiave been in circulation as to whom
the face on tbe cola belong* to.

WilllMall. Meward, ata a Lover
In tbe faded pages of a novel found
In tbe garret of Maj. Fntnci* Ward’s
old home at Eatontoo, Go., his been
found a long love Inter wltb.a lock of
hair from William Seward, late United
8tatn« Sicretary of Biota, to a lady
whose grave has long been overrun by
grass. Seward, a young man with
red hair and reserved la manner, went
from college In response to an adver-
ledgevllle Academy!because he was

his earty labora and love, hut the lady

who had gathered la his bands tbe
power of life and death, had beep
placed a sprig of Aoaota, with tbs
words, “from tbe grave of the Marga
ret of your youth. ”

How Ur Got Rich.—A good old
man, wbo is very risb now, was very
poor when be was a boy. When ask
ed how be got hia riche*, he replied—
“My father taught me never to play
and never to spend money till I had
earned it. If I had bat half an hour’s
work to do in a day, 1 muat do that
the first thing and in half an hoar.
After this was dene I was allowed to
play. I early formed tbe habit of doing
every thing in it* time, aad It snow be
