Of
A CHRISTMAS STORY.
It ia Christmas Eve ! The scene is the
home of u wealthy fumily at Indianapolis
Indiana. A bundsome dressed lady,
fine appearance, in speaking to her duugh
ter.
'Well, dear, what did you buy.'
'O, ever so many things moilier ! Mr
Monroe's store was full of the nicest and
prettiest things you ever saw.'
'I suppose the shop windows presented a
very attractive appearance, as it is Christ
mas Eve.'
Indeed tbey did mother I Harry says he
never saw them look so beautiful before.
'I hope you did not get your feet wet.'
'Both Harry and I had ou our rubbers,
mother, and although the snow was quite
deep, tiny kept our feet dry.'
'But where are your purchases? dear?
and what makes Your brother look so
sober ?'.
. Harry was standing with bis bunds in
bis great coat pockets, not appearing to
enter into the iovousoess of bis sister's
spirits.
O, mother, I forgot ! To night, just as
we walked up to Mr. Monroe's wii.dow, I
- heard some one sigh deeplyand lookii g up
"T saw auman drtaM-U so strangely, Sue
had ou clothes so different from ours, and
looked so wretched and forlorn. She held
the band of the funniest looking little child
you ever saw, and she was dressed, O so
fiddly? They loiked like people from
another couniry. l don t think me queer
little midget ever saw a shop window
before. I could'ot help saying.' 'Did your
jchild ever see anything like this before?
The woman turned and gazed upon me
with dark sad, locking eyes, and replitd '
Hcttie never saw anything like this before
but she and I too, would rather have a
good piece of bread, than anything In that
window.' 'Have you no bread fi r her at
linnier I asked. 'Home I We ve got no
home ? Your army broke op our home
destroyed everything, and I had to come
hire or starve 'Who ate you and where
arc you from?' 'We're Confederate refu
gees. The yankee army jist swept away
everything. My hnshand is in the army ;
and, as I had no borne, I came to Indiana
to look for a brother. But I huve spent
all my money and have nothing to eat and
no place to sleep.'
'Ajid what did you ray tLen, dear ?
asked Mrs. Abbot.
'I told her she might come and stay
with os, As soon as we made our
purchases, Hurry lifted the little Midget in
the Cb'riage, and they came home with

'Mercy on me, child ? What do you mean?
Who is the woman ?' inquired the mother
excitedly. .
'Pon't be angry mother, pleose 1 J could
not do otherwise, Tbey are in the carriage
at tLe front door, I thought it best to let
her remain there until I saw you. She is
a poor woman and a stranger ; and I
could not b'lp thinking of what Mr.
Phelps said last Sunday about the words
of the Text. 'I was hungry and yo gave
roe meat, I was thirsty and ye gave roe

'I will be greatly , obliged. Harry, you

Within an hour the Abbot family were

undone that might alleviate their distress
It Feems to me that I have setn you

DISAGREEABLE HABITS.
An Affecting Incident.
A Boston merchant dying, left ntnOi -g
is papers a parcel of unpaid bills against
poor debtors, with a writteo suggestion to
bis sons that perhaps the claims might as
well be destroyed, as collecting them would
undoubtedly cause distress. They"ung men
made a careful schedule of the claims, aud
placed a large proportion of the debtor's
name on the 'forgiven list,' never intend
ing to collect them.
One day, shortly afterward, (s iys one of
he brothers) an aged man entered the
(pee, saying be bad come to pay an old
debt. He was frjjni Cape Cod, and bis
bowed lorm. and humble dress and bard
hands, indicated tbat his life bad been oi e
of struggles and sorrows. My brother
says the nurrutor) turned to his desk and
lound the old man's name on the 'forgiven
list.' 'Your note is out-law. d,' said be;
'it was dated twelve years ugo, payable
in two years. No iuteresj, has tier been
paid ; you ae not bound to pay this note.
We can never recover the amount.'
'Sir said Ibe old mau, 'I wish to pay it.
Nearly all the disagreeable habits which
people take up, come at first from tnvre
accident, or want of thonghl. ,Tbey rrJ
easily be dropped, but they are persiwd
in until they become st cond nature. Stop
aud think before you allow yourself to torm
them. 1 litre are di-agreeable habits of
body, like scowling, winking, twisting the
mouth, biting the nails, continually picking
at scmethirg, twirling a key or fumbling
ut a chain, drumming wilb the fingers,
screwing and twisting a chair or whatever
you lay your hands on. Don't do any of
these things. Learn to sit quietly like a
gentleman, I was going to say, but I am
afruid even pirls fall into such tricks
sometimes. There are much worse habits
than these, to be bure ; but we are speaking
only of these little things that are only
annoying when they are persisted in. There
are habits of speech, also, such aa .begin
ning every speech with 'yoa See, or 'jou
know," "oow-a, "I dou I care, "t 1 ;J
what," "tell ye now"; iudklinet tUergnce,
sharp, nasal tones ; avoid them all. Stop
and think what you are going to say, and
then let every word drop from your lips
jisn4jx!rlect as a new silver coio. Have
a care about your way of sitting and
standing and walking. Before you know
it you will 'find thut your habits bave
hardened into a coat of mail that you
cannot get rid of without terrible effort.

they were not raised there.
Farming has becu sorter under the ban
ever since I can remember. The mechanic
ranked the furmer, and the merchant
ranked the mechanic, and the lawyers and
the members of Congress ranked every
body; but the farmers are coming to the
front, and the lawyers loosing ground. A
modern lawyer can loose the papers or
brifre ajwitness, or fool the jury, but a
farmer can't fool the soil he works on and
all his labor and toil and sweat is houest.
There is do cheating the grourd out of a
crop nor the Creator out of a shower. He
feels bis dependence all the time, and it
keeps him properly bumbled, and if Bob
Ingersoll bad to make his living that way
he would have been a different sort of man.
Farming is the oldest business we have'
any account of. Old Father Adam entailed
on us the power of thorns and thistles and
bull nettles, and cuckle burs, and tread
saft, and Caio disgraced his occupation by
not giving to tbe Lord the choice of his
crop, but it is the salvation of all civilized
countries and a first-class farmer comes
nearer fulfilling man's manifest destiny
than any other profession. But I wouldu't

of good land is worth mote than a hun

afford to own some poor land and improve
it but a poor msu can't.

THE DEACON'S NEW PREACHER.
" Give me a pint of rum,'' said an old
drunkard, as he set bis jug down bard on
the counter in the store of Deacon Barto
lette, who, in bad old times, used to keep
a country grocery and sell liquor. "J can't
do it. said Deacon Burtolette.
"You can't do it," responded the old to
per, in measured tones.
"And I should like to know why?"
"Why?" answered the Deacon, in a tone
of mingled surprise and righteous indigna
tion ".Why because the law don't allow
m to sell less thuu a quart." Ugh 1 and
is tbat it?" growled the toper. Then
looking the deacon right in the eye, be said,
with ao emphasis that fairly madj the old
man tremble : "Deacon Burtolette, if you
arc no better than the law makes you, you
will go to hell sure."
This was exactly in accordance with the
deacon's own theology.
He could uot deny it : but it was a ser
mon from a new preacher, and quite uo
looked for, and the good man bugan to
think. He saw that was living by lair
rather than love.
He thought of the merchant spoken of
by the prophet, who, in ungodly sell-gratification,
said. "I am become rich. I have
found me out substance, yet iu sll my la
bors they shall find none iniquity iu roe
that were sin." And thereupon Deacon
Bartolette stopped selling rum by the
quart as well as by tbe pint, least indeed
as a toper had said, "the devil should get
him sure." Rev. J. S. Holme.
TALK TO THE CHILDREN.
Children hunger perpetually for new
ideas. Tbe will learn with pleasure from the
lips of parents what they deem drudgery
to study in books; and even if they have
the misfortune to be deprived of many
educational advantages, they a ill grow up

THE TRUE WIFE.
Oftentimes I have seen a tall ship glide
by against tbe tide as if drawn by some
invisible bowline, with a hundred strong
arn)3 nulling it. Her sails were unfurled,
her streamers were drooping, she had
neither side wheel nor stern wheel ; still
she moved oo stately, in serene triumph,
as with her own life. But I knew that oo
the other side of the ship, hiddeo beneath,
the great bulk tbat swung so majestically,
there was a little toilsome steam tug, with
a heart of fire and arms of iron, tbat was
tugging it bravely on, and 1 knew if tbe
little steam tug untwined her arm and left
the ship it would wallow and roll about
aod drift hither and thither, and go off with
the refluent tide ; no man knows whither.
And so I have known more than ooe
genius, high-decked, full-freighted, idlc
suiled, gay-pennoned, but that for the bure,
tuiliog arms and brave, warm-beating heart
of the faithful little wife that nestles close
to him so tbat co wind or wave could part
their, would huve gone down with tbe
stream, ard bave been beard of no more.
