HIS PLAINTIVE PLEA. lie had loved her tenderly and for a long lime, but she had scorned him. He was no worm, either, for he would have turned when trod upon, but she recked not of this. It was enough for her that she did not care for him. This is usually enough for any woman. Also for any man, when the boot is on the other foot. For of such is the kingdom of Cupid. His condition had at last become un bearable to him, and he resolved to win all or lose all. It was late ono evening when the fate ful moment came. "Will vou marry me?" he asked her in plain, untrimun! English, for he could trust himself to nothing in the oriental line. She spurned him scornfully. "No!" she replied with sarcastic, hate ful, cruel emphasis; "no!" The word pierced his heart in his ,.bo som. Bis lips quivered, and at first he could not speak. "Have you uo more to say?" he asked at last, plaintively. "No, sir," she replied' "What more could 1 say?" Acain he shrank at the cruel thrust. "I didn't know," he murmured, trem ulously, "but I thiuk you might have said "No I thank vou. Then he fled away, so weary with his disasters trigged with fortune, that he would set his life on any chance to mend it or be rid of it. F. II. Hickcy, 1208 Main street, T.rnViiir.

TK31PEBANCE TALK. i"L The following "short talks" from the Ram's Horn contains many thoughts worth treasuring up : A moderate drinker is worth more to the devil than a drunkard. A thirst has often been started with a teaspoon that barrels could not quench. The man who has temperance principles should not keep thcui in the dark. The man who is not against the saloon is not against the devil. Every drunkard used to boast that he could drink or let it alone. The man who forms good habits helps God. You can sometimes tell where a man stands by his breath. Nine drunkards out of ten are so to day because they did not resolve in youth to lead a sober life. Tho man who id not again.-t the liquor traffic with all his weight, is in fuvnr of civintr tho d-'vil a license to do buslines on earth. There arc people who claim not in believe in a hell who liv in plin si;;lii of a drunkard's home. Putting screens in the saloon doors is the devil's way of saying that he is ashamed of himself. Whenever you see a drunken man it ought to remind you that every boy in the world is in dauger. When a man takes a drink of whiskey he bids God good-bye. t Deserving Praise.

Justice to one is mercy to thousands, A woman's judgmeut is usually cut bias. We forget in labor what troubles us in rest. Happiness is not the end of life ; char acter is. The test of civilization is the estimate of woman. The mountains of youth are the mole hills of age. The beautiful is beauty seen with the eye of the soul. Life is a mission to serve; to most it is a submission. Soap and water don't make an honest hand any less attractive. Whoa people once begin to deviate they do not know where to stop. No padlock, bolts or bars can secure a maiden as well as her own reserve. The pools judged like philosophers when they feigned love to be blind. A man dues more toward making fat than fate does toward making him. If all men had that which they desire many would not have that which is now theirs. The truly brave are s ft of heart and eyes, and feel for what their duty bids them do. Old friends are best. King James used to call for his old shoes, for they were easiest for his feet. The firmest friendships have been for med in mutual adversity, as iron is morf 1 strongly uuiteii by the fiercest flume. Good advice is one of those injuries which a good man ought, if possible, to forgive, but at all events to forget at once. If we could see in ourselves that which we see in others, as others cau see in us that which they do not see in themsolves, where would we be at? GOLD IX GKAVEYAKDS.
