SY INCREASE N. TIR.BOx. Ihe bells of earth go sounding on 7' From many an ancient steeple,. Telling their tales ef joy and woe To all the waiting people ;- In merry strains of (mita mirth They cheer our hours of gladness, Or wail their cry when midnight flame Are raging in their madness. a So on they ring, these bells of earth, With note that never changes, But over all the chords of life Their mystic music ranges. To -day they mourn a. nation's loss Tri heavy moans of sorrow, But chant the tripping wedding -march In gladsome tones tomorrow; To -day they sing of victory, With banners gayly flying, To morrow requiems for the slain On al' the winds are sighing. So on they ring, these bells of eart With note that never changes, But over all the chords of life Their mystic music ranges. How gently on the morning -air The Sabbath bells are calling ; How softly at the hour of prayer, When evening dews are falling; But when death's sad procession move And bells are slowly tolling, How mournfully upon the ear Thee waves of sound coat rolling! So on they- ring, the bells of earth, With note that never changes, But over all the chords of life Their mystic music ranges. Their note is one; but human souls, All thoughts and passions blending, Can turn the 111.11Sie at their will, To each emotion bending; These sena' from turret and from towar Which o'er the land are ringing, Are echoes from the self-sarne song Which every heart is singing. So on they ring, these bells of earth, With note that never changes, But over ail the chords of life Their mystic music ranges. —Chicago Trilanne. Gaieties.

He 4nts sorik for the--gentlernan, and hoped he might find comfortable lodgings, but he couldn't permit hirn to occupy even a portion of his bed. Then the clerk begged pardon, and was very sorry and all that, this other gentleman had registered first,and it Wasfor himto say what-dispo: sition should bo made of this lonely room and solitary bed. I hastened to assure the majestic ,being that it was all right. he was welcome to two-thirds of the room, all the looking -glass, and one-half of the bed "No,"he said very ab- ruptly, "I will sit here by the stove and sleep in a chair. I thank you, sir, but I would not sleep with my own brother. I prefer a.room to myself." I meekly tolcl him that I did not know what kind of a man his brOther was, but no doubt he did, and therefore I must conclude that he wasn't a fit man to sleep with. But his brother was out of the question, and if he wanted,part of my couch he! might have it and welcome, and I would agree not to think of his brother. "No, sir," he said, "1 will sleep in no man's bed." I said I wouldn't either, if I wasn't sleepy, by when I was sleepy I didn't care; I'd sleep with the King of England or the President, and wouldn't care a cent whe knew it. Well, I went to bed. I curled up under the warm, soft blankets, and heard the wind shriek and Avail and - whistle and yell,—how like all ereation that wind can blow in Erie, !—and as the night grew colder and colder every min- ute, I fell asleep and dreamed that heaven was just 48 miles west of Dun- kirk. About half -past two or three o'clock there came a thundering rap at the door, and with a vague, half -waking impression in my dream that soinebody from the other place was trying to get in, I said, "'What is it?" "It is I," answered a splendid voice, which I recognized at once. I am the gentleman who came on the train with you." " Yes," I answered, "and what is the matter ?" The splendid voice was a trifle humble as it repliett, "I have changed my mind about sleeping with another man. " So have I !" I yelled, so joyously that the very winds laughed in merry echo. "So have 1! I wouldn't get out of this warm bed to open the door for my own brother !" I will close this story here. If I should write the language that went down that dim, cold hall outside my door, you wauldn't print it. And when next morning I went skipping down- stairs as fresh as a. rose, and saw that majestic being knotted up in a hard arm -chair, looking a hundred years old, 1 said, ";Better is a poor rend wise child than an old and foolish King, who knaeth not how to be admonished. For, -out of 'a prison he cometh to reign; whereas, also, he that is born id his kingdom becotneth poor." This also is vanity.--Burdette. said, Your us last Friday as a Day of Luck. - Friday is regarded as a day of evil omen, but it has been an eventful one in American history. • Friday, Columbus sailed on his voy, age of discavery. Friday, ten weeks after, he discovered America. Friday, Henry VII. of England gave John Cabot his commission, which led to the discovery of North America. Friday, St. Augustine, the oldest town in the Unitstl States, was founded. Friday, the " Mayflower," with the Pilgrims, arrived at Plymouth; and on Friday they _ signed that august com- pact, a forertmner of the present Con- stitution. Friday, George Washington was born. Friday, Bunker Hill was seized and THE his palace windows, not long since, he discovered that the palace i.of a prince who had refused to meet 14m—had re sed to be one of a committee to give h a message of good -will that Nery n• dah—Was burnine Ihe King hastened to the burning building, and, with his geetlemen-in-waiting, did all in his power to help the family and save ;their ponessions. When the prince and his family were in a place of safety, the prince acknowledged his indebtedness to the King, and his generosity in helping him in time of danger. The King made a powerful friend of an aggressive enemy by proving himself a true man. • Unexpected Conapany. A volume could be written on this subject and many a housekeeper who has found herself in a tight place with an unannounced guest or guests would welcome its advent with great joy. Have we not each -and every one of us, with company in the parlor and. mis- •giyings in our hearts, started for the pantry to find that, like Mother Hub- bard, when we "got there, the cup- board was bare," and dinner, and a geed one too, a necessary of the near future. , I 1he Canadian hen has (lone consider- abie for her country, and hes never re- ceived a tithe of the homage to which sh 3 is entitled. The guest who cannot make a satisfactory dinner on scrambled eggs, or omelet and baked potatoes, is not the friend to be received with open arms. And if the larder shows a half slice of ham, or some shavings of smoked beef left from a •previouS meal, the omelet is a little richer, and able to sat- isfy a good appetite the -more. The remains of a fowl may, at the time when the hungry guest sits in state in the best room, fill the ehe of the be- holder with regret. Not with sorrow foe its loss, but that it is not as it was yesterday, crisp and -whole.; Take courage —and a good knife—and st •ip the bones of all the remaining meat, and with the dressing, put it in the fry- in,g pan or spider,' with a little water and butter, and some gravy, if any was let from yesterday's dinper. Toast some slicee of bread nicely, turn hot water over them and turn off all that is not immediately absorbed, put the slices on a platter, covering them with the pre- pared fowl or chicken. A little meat will go a great way prepared in this menner, and the good dinner be an as- sured fact. 1 Or the quantity of meatmay not be sufficient even for this dith, but may perhaps make enough croceoettes to help out the • dinner already planned for the . Chop or crumb stale bread very fine. Also chop an onion, adding the chicken picked from the bones, and season with salt, pepper and celery salt, Beat up,an e . add it to the chihken and bread ti .fortified. • Friday, the surrender of Saratoga was made. Friday, Cornwallis surrendered at Yorktown; and on Friday, the motion was made in Congress that the united • colonies were, and of right ought to be, free and independent. The Haunted Robm. Once, in the dead heart of the pitiless winter, I had drawn my good two-hand- ed lecture with the terrible , frame, and was smiting all the eoasts trennsyl- ..41i) vania. with it, sparing neithee( renew:ic- ed nyther) young not. old, and wearing at my belt the scalps of mapy a pale - faced audience. One night I reached Erie, the pleasant, ju.st as the clocks in the Lord Mayor's ca.s•tie struck twenty - One. It was bitter, bitter, stinging cold, and there was no ambulance at the sta- tion) while there was a good hotel there.

I etood a little in awe of this Majestic being,—about as little as I usually stand in the presence of any majestic creature; and when in a deep -bass, commanding_ voice he brdered a room, I ha,d'a great mind—something that I always carry with me when I travel to go out and get him one. The gentlethnartly and urbane night clerk, who al- seemed seemed to ha deeply impressed—as is the habit of the night clerk—with the gentleman's respensil de- to -any -amount toot -on -Sa.witt- hel, sai•1 he was sorry, but he had hut ene vacant room, and it eentained but ene bed.

The other day the conductor of -a branch train in the West came across a passenger who had neither ticket nor cash. Afterssome talk the conductor told him that he must got off as soon as the train stopped. All right," he said. When the train pulled up the conductor saw that his order was obeyed and then, after helping some ladies on in his usual courteous manner, he called out, "All .aboard !" and the train moved on. On making his next round for the collection, of tickets he found to his sur- prise that the man- he had put off was on again. Didn't I tell you to get off this train ?" said the conductor, with con- siderablhindignation. " I believe you did," placidly respond- ed the other. "Weil, what did you get on again for, then?" Why, because you told me to. of course," was the reply in an injured tone of voice. "Told you to? What do you mean by that ?" "Why, I got off the train as you; re- quested, and then you called out, All aboard!' and so I got aboard. Seems to me you are a pretty hard man to please.' It is needless to say that he journeyed the rest of the way en foot. • utnbs, and Mold with the bands into t hakes, or rolls.

Quaint Marriage Records. The world discourages, and rightly so, he marriage of Deceinber and May, and viten such marriages took place in for- er times they were usually recorded in ome such way as this :- 22nd August 1782). At Bath, Captain Hamilton', ged 39, to MiseiMunson, a lady of rank nd fortune, aged 85." We may find ven a distance of eighty years between n old tnan and his bride. In February, 769, "Robert Judge, Esq., of Cooks- urgh, Ireland, aged 95, to Miss Annie ugent, aged 15. • He served in King illiam's wars, received a ball in his ose," Particulars of height, as well as f age, fortune, and length of courtship, were :often given: " December (1755). . At 'York, Mr. Thomas, a grenadier in he Yorkshire. Militia, six feet two inches high, to Miss Hannah Tennick, of Clearlam, three -feet two inches high, with a fortune of five thousand pounds." And on April 5, 1785, at Ripley church, Mr. Robert Long was married to Miss Reynard ; between them' there Was dis- parity both of age and size, "the bride- groom being 4 years of age; and more than six feet high; the bride 20 years old, •and a little more than three feet high." The . record of a marriage in 1779 of a couple aged respectively 80 and 85 concludes thus: "And, what is -still more remarkable, there has been a courtship carried on betwixt thein for more than 60 years. —Brooklyn Maga- zine. , • - King Humbert's Triumph.

Br cefield, March 22nd, 1887. 1006x5 EED BARLEY FOR SALE.—The undersigned . has On hand a number of bushels of a new variety - of six rowed barley, called tbe Mansard, ✓ ich they offer for sale. It is perfectly free fr m all foul seeds of any kind. We have grown it now for two seasons and have thoroughly te ted it good qualities and are now in a posi- ti n to recommend it to our brother fanners as o e of the best verities of six rowed barley Over in rodueed into the county of.
