Idle phrase But, ah! what years are happy 'neath the sky? Whose paths are altogether pleasant ways? ii. And so to you, my friend, I fain would give Another greeting for the coming year A greeting that through all Its days may live As tender music lingers on the ear. in. We know the year that holds the summer's prime Holds, too, the winter's icy storm and frost. The changing blasts of spring's capricious time, The mellow autumn, when the world Is lost IV. In beauty like a dream, when golden days Fall softly on us with the falling leaves, And pgrple hills are wrapped in radiant haze, Like the enchanted mist that Fancy weaves. v. So, too, the years of changing human life Hold many a season clasped In their embrace Days bright with hope, days dark with weary strife, And days serene with fair, pathetic grace. VI. Shall I, who fain would call upon your way Life's highest blessing, wish for smiles alone From sunny skies on flowery meadows? Nay, Not so God blesses those He makes His own. VII. Souls lapped in glowing sunshine seldom rise To face unblended the driving storm and rain; And hearts most truly and most gently wise Have learned their wisdom in tfie school of pain. VIII. Therefore, O steadfast soul! I ask for you Courage and strength to meet the fiercest blast; And God's best sunshine, faithful heart and true, To gild your pathway when the storm is past.

Cincinnati Breakfast Table. A French paper reports a murder trial in which a witness testified that he heard two pistol shots on the staircase, and sent his wife to see what was the matter. "You: did not go up stairs yourself?" "No, sir; I was afraid of the revolver." At a French restaurant: "GarconP' "Monsieur?" "This turbot is in a frightful state it Is literally falling to pieces!" "Pardon! But Monsieur does not know its age, or he would compliment It on its wonderful state of preservation." A London hotel keeper charged his bill, "Swans, one guinea." "But I haven't had any swans," protested the astonished guest "It is the view, sir, from the hopen winder," exclaimed the waiter, pointing with a fork toward the Thames. "We don't charge for swans In a back room." That was a good though rather a severe pun which was made by an Edinburgh student (and he was not one of the brightest of the class either), when he asked, "Why is Professor the great est revivalist of the age?" and on all "giving it up," said "Because at the end of every sermon there Is a great awakening." Exchange. THE BRAZILIAN FAMINE. Terrible Suffering in the Northern Ceara. Province of Capt. William Weir of the steamer City of liio Janeiro, which arrived at New York from Brazil, Friday, says that just before he sailed for New York he met a man from Ceara, the famine stricken region in northern Brazil, who told him that the people there were dy ing so fast that it was impossible to make coffins to supply the demand, and that they dug ditches and tumbled the unshxouded corpses into them, eight or ten at a time. The deaths from small pox were as high as 500 and 600 daily in Ceara alone, and it was with great diffi culty that persons could be found to convey the dead bodies to the ditches in which they were buried. The city was crowded, when the smallpox broke out, with refugees from the interior of the province, who had been driven in by the terrible famine which desolated it a few months ago. Among these refu gees, already weakened by the famine, the smallpox raged with fearful viru lence. The Brazilian government is doing all in its power to alleviate the distress, for the country outside of Ceara suffered less than tne city itself, simply because there were fewer people to be attacked. During t$ie famine the government sent away all the people they could (about 30,000), scattering them nearly all over Brazil. One thousand were sent to Para, where tb,ey were employed by the Covins Brothers in the construction of the Mamore Railroad. Captain Weir says that wSiile the smallpox in Ceara cannot be exaggerated, there is no truth in the report that the people in the in terior of the province are compelled to devour carrion and corpses. The in habitants left in the country are so f ew that the government now has no diffi culty in supplying them with aU the food they require. Of th Americans who went to Bra zil to work upon the Mamore Railroad, not more than seventy are still at woru The remainder have scattered in all di rections, finding it impossible to accom modate themselves to tne climate ana work. Those who can raise money, to pay their passage are returning home as fast as they can, but a large majority cannot get enough ahead to take them pup of the country. ... ... ii . 4m m- Two gisters' New Year's Quarrel, New York Sun; 2d. On new year's eve Mrs. Susan Reilly of North Fifth, near Fifth street, Wil liamsburgh, and her sister quarrelled about a new dress that Mr. Reilly's step father had given her. The sister want ed to wear the dress to a ball, telling Mrs. Susan that her widow's dress was stylish enough for her. Mrs. Reilly, however, wore the dress. "When w got home in the morning," said Mrs.1 Reilly last night to the sur- gepn pi ne J? ounn inset .nospitai, 'she (tier sister) broke al the prockery in the house throwing it at me. In the evening, as I passed her at the table, where shev stood cutting bread, she turned and'drove the knife into my face, cuttiug this gash in my cheek." The wouna extended from the. ear to the point of the phin. Mrs, Reilly refused, to make any complaint to the police, 4 . ; i jTax en Fruit Spirit?. Washington Republican.

HARD LTNES ON THE TRACK SOME DIFFICULTIES WHICH BESET MRS. ANDERSON PATH. The Curiosily of Brooklyn Women The Little Room Behind the English Flag How the Pedestrienne Sleeps Recuperating. New York Sun, 2d. The main points of attraction to the visitor after entering the hall where Mrs. Anderson is now descending the graae in tne iasi nan oi ner arduous task, are two large flags hanging in folds at the right and left of the small stage at the head of the track. The Stars and Stripes drape the left. On the right is the flag of old England. Under the lat ter flag is the little door leading to Mrs. Anaerson s room, as she progresses in her walk many pairs of eyes are turned toward that door every time the bell summons her to appear. As the door opens for the pedestrienne to step out, men and women endeavor to penetrate the hidden mysteries of her retreat. If they had been in the room vesterdav they would have seen the muscular woman with a pallid face, sleeping on her right side; her arm extended over the side of her bed, the hand tightly clenched, and her eyelids twitching at times from the light which Doured in from the high windows of her sleeping . J ! A i 1 . 1 . anu cooKing apartment, one Dreatneci regularly and slept soundlv at intervals. The bell has no terrors for her, for the clanging failed to penetrate her tired ears, which had been filled with yells and shouts and blaring music the night before on the completion of her 1,457th quarter in the fast time of 3.29M. Her attendants, however, were keeniv alive to the knell, it seemed to come so terri bly often. ,They would slip their hands unaer her shoulders, raise her to a sit ting posture, turn her limbs off the bed, and then slide her on her feet. Her heavy eyelids would open a little, when, nair asleep, sne would grope tor the door and follow her coach on the track. During several rounds in the past for ty-eight hours she has at times grazed the railing and wall in a dazed manner, and appeared to be on the point of breaking down. This, her attendants say, is only the re-action from overdue excitement on Monday and New Yearns night, and that she will soon be strong er than ever. Later on in the evening this proved to be correct, for she gained in vigor, and seemed to be infused with new life. During the early morning, afternoon and evening many ladies of Brooklyn visited the garden. Thev were curious to learn all about the pedestrienne, and the general belief was that it would be impossible for the woman to finish her promised performance. One woman said : I did not think it possible for her to accomplish what she has alreadv done." Another ladv accosted a woman friend, who had. just left Mrs. Ander son's room, with the inquiry whether Mi's. Anderson would see her. On be ing informed that the attendants desir ed to have her alone as much as possi ble, the lady remarked : " I came with my husband this morning, but grew so much interested that I had to return." Several women remained in the hall all night. Some of them came from the New i ear s balls in the neighborhood. One of them stayed until 8 in the mor ning. An editor of a leading sporting newspaper remained in Mrs. Anderson's room through the night. He believed there must be some deception and he was determined to see for himself. He became perfectly satisfied that every thing was conducted on the square, and that the woman was getting a fair re cord. This was what Mrs. Anderson requested at the start. She said her re cords had always been doubted by some who had not seen her walk. So far the representatives of at least two newspa pers have been present throughout eve ry hour of her walk from the start. The only instance she has been a shade be hind the time prescribed for her to ap pear was at 11 o'clock yesterday morn ing. Her attendants were robing her after a bath, and she was necessarily 13 seconds late on reaching the track. She walked the quarter in 5.04), having 9 minutes to spare before starting on the next quarter mile. There are three watches on the timers' table, and two of the record keepers insist that even with the delay caused by her women, she was exactly on time. She made very fast time under the circumstances on entering the year '79, going over her first quarter, the 1,457th, in 3.29, and the next one in 3.45. She walked her 365th mile in I6.54i, the 366th in 20.32, and the 367th in 20.56. A little after midnight on New Year's she said she felt like giving the com? pany something jolly. She then stepped on the stage and sang "Thompkins' Coming Home at 2 O'clock in the Morn ing " with imitations. She did it well, receiving hearty applause. Yesterday afternoon she was walking with apparent vigor, going over the 1,510th quarter at 3.46 in 44. At 8.46 she labored over her 385th mile in 20.55. She drew her feet around the 1,544th quarter at 9.45 in 5.30M- At 10 o'clock f she was a very tired woman; at times her teet seemed anchored to the track. She only raised them enough to clear the ground, and was 6.19I in creeping over her seven laps. She glided like a heavy ghost over the next quarter in 6.04. Even the applause on her last lap failed to quicken her almost benumbed limbs. Mr. Henry, her trainer, said: "She's sleeping now ; in two hours she'll come out with the spring of a gazelle." 4not'er Walking JHatch, A six days' pedestrian contest has been arranged "between O'Leary, of Chicago, and Harriman, of Massachusetts, for $2,000, to take place in Xew York with in the next six weeks.

Every moment that we live the work of destruc tion never ceases among wnai is scienuncauy call ed 'the tissues" of which our bodies are composed. Every moment if we are In health, the work of re pairing this destructive process goes on with equal pace. When the vital force is great more vigor is given to the blood and muscular fibre than the or dinary wear and tear of existence uses up. When the vital force falls from any cause, there ensues a wasting away, which If not arrested, ends in decay and death.

Mr. Albert Crooker, the well-known druggist and Apothecary, of Springvale, Me., always advises every one troubled with Rheumatism to try VEGE TENE. BEAD HIS STATEMENT: Springvale, Me., Oct 12, 1876. Mr. EL R. Stevens: Dear Sir Fifteen years ago last fall I was taken sick with rheumatism, was unable to move until the next April. From that time until three years ago this fall I suffered everything with rheumatism. Sometimes there would be weeks at a time that I could not step one step; these attacks were quite often. I 8ufiered everything that a man could. Over three years ago last spring I commenced tak ing VEGETINE and followed it up until I had tak en seven bottles; have had no rheumatism since that time. I always advise every one that is trou bled with rheumatism to try VEGETINE, and not suffer for years as I have done. This statement Is gratuitous as far as Mr. Stevens Is concerned. Yours, ALBERT CROOKER Firm of A Crooker & Co., Druggists; Apothecaries - VEGETINE HAS ENTIRELY CURED ME. Boston, Oct, 1876. Mr. EL R. Stevens: Dear Sir My daughter, after having a severe at tark of Whooping, Cough, was left In a feeble state of health. Being advised by a frielid she tried the VEGETINE, and after using a few bottles was ful ly restored to health. I have been a great sufferer from Rheumatism. I have taken several Lotties of the VEGETINE for this complaint, and am happy to say it has entirely cured me. I have recommended the VEGETINE to others with the same good results. It Is a great cleanser and purifier of the blood; it is pleasant to take and I can cheerfully recommend It JAMES MORSE, 364 Athens street RHEUMATISM IS A DISEASE OF THE BLOOD. The blood in this d'sease Is found to contain an excess of flbrim. VEGETINE acts by converting the blood from its diseased condition to a healthy circulation. VEGETINE regulates the bowels which Is very Important In this complaint One bottle of Vegetine will give relief; but to effect a permanent cure, it must be taken regularly, and may take several bottles, especially In cases of long standing. Vegetine is sold by all Druggists. Try It and your verdict will be the same as that of thousands before you. who say, "I never found so much relief as from the use of Vegetine," which Is composed exclusively of barks, roots and herbs. "VEGETINE," says a Boston physician, "has no equal as a blood purifier. Hearing of Its many wonderful cures, after other remedies had failed, I visited the laboratory and convinced myself of its genuine merit It is prepared from barks, roots and herbs, each of which Is highly effective, and they are compounded In such a manner as to produce astonishing results." VEGETINE NOTHING EQUAL TO IT. South Salem, Mass., Nov. 14, 1876. Mr. H. R, Stevens: Dear Sir I have been troubled wifh Scrofula, Cancer and Liver Complaint for three years. Noth ing ever did me any good until I commenced using Vegetine. I am now getting along first-rate, and still using the Vegetine. I consider there is noth ing equal to It for such complaints. Can heartily recommend it to everybody. Yours truly. Mrs. LIZZIE M PACKARD, No. 16 Lagrange street VEGETINE Prepared by H.-R. STEVENS. BOSTON, MASS.
