A light snow ha4 fallen,nd -the boys of Jj- desired to make the most of it; and as it was too dry for snow-balling, and not deep enough for coasting, they thought it would do very well to make tracks Near by there was a large meadow, and it was pritposcd that they should go to a tree which stootl near the centre of the meadow, and that each one should start from the tree., to the bouqdries of the meauttw. The proposition was assented to, and they were soon at the tree. They ranged themselves around the tree with their backs toward it, and started, each one retracing Ins steps to the tree. After they hat returned, they each looked, back to see how straight the tracks were. 'Whose is the straightest ?" said James Allison to Thomas Sanders, who was first at the tree, "Henry Armstrong's is the only one that is straight at all," said Thomas. "Why," said Jacob Small, "how could we all contrive to go so crooked when the meadow is so smooth, and nothing to turn ws out of the wav ?" How happened you to go so straight, Henry t" said Thomas. ,4I fixed my eye ou that tall pine tree on the hill yonder, and never looked away from it till I reached the feuce," answer ,, ed Henry, 4I went as straight as I could without looking at auy thing but the ground," said James. 1 "So did I," said another, "So did I," replied several voices at once. It appeared that no one but Henry had aimed at a particular object. They attempted to go straight without any definite aim, but they failed. Men cannot succeed in anything good without , a definite aim, General purposes, general resolutions, will not avail. You must do as Henry did; fix upon something distinct and definite-as an object, and go steadily toward it.

A WORD TO THE BOYS. y When the Duke of Wellington was sick, the last thing he took was a liltle tea. On his servant's handing Jt to him in a saucer,' and asking him if lie would have - it, the Duke replied "Yes if you please." These wpro his last words. How much kindness and coufay is expressed by them ? He who commanded the greatest armies in Europe, whowas loug accus tomed to the tone- of authority,, did not despise pr overlook the small pQHrtesies of life. Ah, how many boys do. What a rude tone of command they often use to , their little brothers and sisters, and some times to their mothers. This is ill-bred 'and insolent, It shows a coarse nature, and a hard heart. In all your home.talk, remember, "If you please." Amongyour playmate, don't forget, 'Ifyoa please." To all who wait upon or serve you, be Jieve that "if you pjease" will make you better served than all the cross or order ing words iu the wholedictionary. Don't . forget three little words, "if roe please." rJyV. U.yJr., to Church Union, A TROUBLESOME VERB.

"You see I am a gentleman !" said YYU1 Thomnson. "I will not bikiv nn insnlt " And the fellow strutted up aud down in a rase. He had been throwing stones at I'eter Jones, aud he thought that his an- jer proved him to be a gentleman "If you want to be su gentleman, I should think you would be a gentle boy first," said-his teacher, "Geutlemen do ot throw stones at their neighbors. Peter Jones did not throw stones at you, and 1 thiuk lie is much more likely to J prove a gentleman." "But he has got patches on his knees," said Will 'Bad pantaloons., do not keep a boy from being a gentleman ,"said his teacher, "but a bad temper does. Now, William, if you want to be a gentleman, you must first-be a gentle boj" A little further on, the teacher met Peter Jones. Some stones had hit him, and he was hurt by them. "Well, Peter, what is the matter be tween you and Will this morning " asked the teacher. "I was throwing a ball at one of the boys, in play, sir, and it niissed him and hit Will Thompson's dog." "Then when-he threw stones at you, why did you not throw back.?' "Because, sir, mother says that to be a gentlemau, I must be a gentle boy; aud I thought it best to keep out of his way till he cooled off a little." The;teacher walked ou, but kept the boys in mind. --He lived to see Will Thompson a rowdy, aud Peter Jones a gentleman, loved aud respected by all. Selected." ' SILENT MEN, . Washington never made a speech. Iu the zenith of his fame he once attempted it, failed, and gave it up confused aud abashed. In framing the constitution of the United States the labor was almost wholly performed iu com mi t tee of the Whole, of which George Washington was the chairman; but he made two speeches during the conrentlou, of a very few words each. The convention, however, acknowl edged the master spirit, and historians affirm that, had it not been for his per sonal popularity, aud the thirty words of his first speech pronouncing it the best that could be united upon, the Constitu tion would have been rejected -by the people. Thomas Jefferson, never made a speech. He couldn't do if. Nqpoleon, whose executive ability is almost without a parallel, said that his greatest difficulty was in finding men of deeds rather than words. When asked how lie maintained his influence over his superiors iu age and experience when commander-in-chief of au army in Italy, he said, by reserve, The greatness of a man is not measured by the length of his speeches, and their number. The reception that tbp great American explorer Henry M. Stauley, met with at Cario, Egypt, was extremely enthusiastic and imposing. A splendid banquet was given in his honor, and the Khedive be stowed upon him some hapdsome decora tions, accompanied with a little speech in in which he said: "To reward such mag- nificent efforts as you have made in the name of humanity, science aud civiliza tion, I present you a sou venir'of this most interesting interview." In addition to the Grapd Cross of the Medjidie, the Khedive presented him with a decoration of another grade, which enables Mr. Stan ley to take the title of Grand Officer of the Order -of the Medjidie. At the Khedival Geographical Society a grand reception was also extended him, Many distinguished persons were present, and the sa van s in discussing his discover ies were profuse ia their compliments,- The Secretary of State f during Decem ber last, issued warrant for the sale of 28,000 acres of land lying in McDowell county, to W, W.

An Effort to Introduce the Japan Perimr man into this State What ft is. Charlotte Observer. Dr. E.

It bears no resemblance whatever to our persim mon except in color and name. It is very large about the size of au orange but differs irom this in that it is of oblong shaped These specimens came from Cali fornia, where the trees grow luxuriantly. Dr. Mattoon, President ot Biddle Univer sity, near this place, who was for a num ber of years a missionary to Siam, is well acquainted with this fruit, and says of it that there is no more delightful food.

Mr H R Stevens, Dear Sir, About ten years ago my health failed through the depleting effects of dyspepsia; neany a year later 1 w& attacked by typhoid-fever in its worst form. It settled In my back, and took the furia of a large deep-seated abscess, which was fifteen mouths in gathering. I had two surgical operations by the best skill In the state, but received no permanent cure. I suffered great pain at times, and was con stantly weakened by a profuse'dlseharjre. I also lost sniall pieces of bones at different times. Matters ran on thus about seven years, till May, 1874, wheu a friend recommended me to go to your office, and talk with you of the virtue of Vkuetine. I did so. and by vonr kindness passed throusn your manufactory, nouns? tue imrreuie nts, c, by which your remedy is produced, ly what I saw and heard I gained some confidence in Vehktine. I commenced taking It soon after, but felt worse from lls pfrwts: Htill I iireservtl. and soon felt it see the results I desired till 1 had taken It faithfully for little more than a year, when the diiiieult y in the back" was cured: and for nine months 1 have enjoyed the best of health.
