Let" mc taint her picture ns she "jay there. She was a blonde, ilh a small, graceful, figur?, and a prei ty face. The hair which showed by it rich waves its natural tendency to curl, was brushed smoothly back and gathered into a rich knot at the lack her chec ks were pale, and the whole face woie a discontented ex nrrasion. Her dress was a neat chinU WTappcr, but she wore neith r collar nor lcwes. 'What's th so of divsswg tip, just for Wil liam V ' Irzio slept soundly for two hours, mid then woke suddenly.

Who would have fancied that Lizzie Jam, so pretty, sprightly, and lov ing, could havo ciianged to the fret ful dowdy she is now?

At first William thought tliere must be a guest, but glaucing around ' he found they were alone. . . . , : . . , 'Come, William, your coffee will bo stone cold,' said LizSsie, in a ticery and pleasant voice. i ; r "It must be cool till you sweeten my breakfast with a kiss,', said her husband, crossing the room to her side and Lizzie's heart bounded as she recognized the old lover' tones and manners. ;.. Not one fretful speech, not one complaint fell upon William's , ear dming the meal. ' The. newspaper, his usual solace during that hour, lay untouched as Lizzie chatted gai ly on cvery pleasant subject she could , think of warming by his gratified interest and cordial man ner. .

A 'fretful dowdy.' , William you shall never say that again.', Lizzie loved hr husband with a real wifely devotion, and ; her lips would quiver as she thought of her husband's confidenceto his friend Moore, but, like a : brave little wo man she stifled back tho bitter feel ings and stripped off to perfect her plan. The grand piano was opened and the linen cover taken from the furniture, Lizzie thinking, 'He shan't find any parlors more attractivethan his own, I am determined.' Tea time came and William came with it. A little figure, in a tasty, bright silk dresf, smooth curls, and oh, such a lovely u!ush smile, stood ready to welcome William as he came, and tea time passed as the morning meal had. done. Afterlea, theio was no movement as usual to the hat rack. . William stood up beside Uie table, lingering and chatting, till Lizzie also rose. She led him to the-Iight, warm par lors, in their jretty glow and taste ful-arrangements arid drew him down beside her He felt as if he was courting over again, as he watched her .fingers, busy with some fancy needle worjc, and listened to 'the cheerlul voice he loved bo well only two years before.

'Eleven ! I thought it was about nine. I ought to apologize, Lizzie, as I used to do, for staying so long, and I can truly sayj as I did then, that the time has passed so 'plcas- autly I can searcely beliero it is so late.' The piano' was closed, Lizzie's work put in the basket,' and William was ready to go upstairs, but glan cing back he saw his little wife near the. fire place, her hands clasped, her head bent, and largo tears fall ing from her eyes. He was beside her in a moment; ' 'Lizzie darling, are you ill ? What is the matter ?' 'Oh, William, I have been such a bad ? wife !

The arguments were forceful and very impressive. The Friends of Temperance , were present j in strong force and the order seems to prosper. The temperance reform has succeeded in fixing in the public mind the following fie points: J. . I. Strong drink is ruinous. Even the keepers of grog shops lament the ruin wrought around; them, and mostof theu would prefer a change of occupation. i - ! !" 2. All drinks tohich excite thirst for strong drink are dangerous.

Will pure teine pronwte so briety ? Ala Ay good men believe that wine will satisfy the desire for drink and prove comparatively harmless ; others, believe that wine will excite thirst for strong drink and lead to drunkenness. There are two sides, to the question and it should be carefully examined. 5. Should the manufacture and sale of ardent spirits he regulated by fate Some are opposed to legislation on articles of consump tion ; others say that those towns and communities in which the pro hibition exists, prosper and enjoy ptaoe, while stills and grog-shops breed vice, and misery wherever they go. . ; ' j .The fivo points of progres made by temperance reformers have great ly blest f mankiad ; the five points now under-' discusaion involve the purity of the christiau religion and the preservation of human life. Biblical Recorder. In the .Austrian army the follow ing methed is adopted as a remedy for drunkenness; and medical re ports state that out of one hundred and thirty-nine cases, one hunch od and tweajty-eight cures of confirmed drunkards have been effected. -The soldier taken in a state of imoxioa tioo, or purposely inebriated, is con fined to hi roova, whare his dit is carefully and amply supplied to him, according to hia choice, For drink, he ia allowed brandy and wattr, in the proportion of one-third brandy two-thirds-water. Alb his food it prepared in a weak solution of bran dy and -water. 1 Coffee with a small quantity of brandy, is also- allowed him. At first, the treatment throws the patient in a constant : state of intoxication, and ho sleeps much. At the end of three or ionr days he takes a dislike to his food and drink, and asks for a change, which request, were it acceded to, would entirely pre vent the' completion of t he cure. On the contrary, it must now be persevered in, until the patient can no longer swallow food or drink, and even the smell revolts and nauseates the stomach, when the cure may be considered aa effected.- The short- est time for the continuance i : the treatment is seven days; the longest nine. : -. j A Woman's Tbmpebance Speech.

Bible is read of a Sunday in all tho thirty thousand pulpits of the laud. In all the temples ofchris tendom is its voice lifted np week by week. The sun never sets on its gleaming page. It goes eqnally to the cottage of the plain man and th palace oi the king. It is woven into the literature of the scholar and col ors the talk of the street. The bark of the merchant cannot sail the seas withont it no ship ot war goes to tuo coun.ct, but me liioie is vnerw. It enters mon s clssets. mingles in all the grief and cheerfulness ot life. The affianced maiden prays God in Scripture for strength in her new duties ; men are marneu uy ocnpL- ure. Tne i5ible altenas them in their sicknesss ; when the fever of tlie. world is on them, the aching head finds a softer pillow if its leaves lie underneath, lne manner es caping from shipwreck, clutches the first of his treasures and k?pn it sacred to God. It goes with, the poddler in his crowded pack ; cheers him at eveutide when he sots ; down dusty and fatigued, and brightens the freshness of his mcrninc face. It blesses us when we are born, gives name to half Christendom, re joices with us, has sympathy with our mourning, tempers our grief to finsr issues. It ia the better part of our sermons. Ifc lifts man above himself ;oar best of nttered prayers are in its sacred speeeh, wherewitb oar fathers and the patriarchs prayed. The timid man about awakening from this dream of life, looks through t)e glass of Scripture tnd hi eyes grow .bright ; he does not fear to stand alone, to tread the Way, un known and distant, to take the Death Angel by. the hand and bid farewell to wife and babe, and home.' Men rest on this their r dearest hopes. Thbod'oue Parker. ' . , . i : t' " - m '-" I . r 4,Prepare to meet Thy drol.r Words of more momentous irur, port, were 'never addressed r to mor tals.
