Y is a brilliant Boston woman' of abundant executive ability, shrewdwit, and delightful hospitality. Her husband's business compels the keeping up of a fine establishment in the West,. where she spends a portion of the yean. -One day while in the latter sec- tion she was handed the card of ain't-Rug- Jjsh gentleman, with a letter of intro- -duction from friends of the Y ----s a broad;, and she catne down and greeted the guest cordially. We are so accusto-med to travelers," she said, " that we know just what to do with them.. We expect everybody to arrive travel -stained and exhausted; and we let everybody take a bath the first thing. I spoke to the servant before I came down, and every -thing is all ready." But, said the stranger, "1 can- not think of putting yoU- to so much trouble. 1—" "Oh. I know just haw you feel, " iu- terrupted Mrs. Y . "A bath is the only thing that restores me to my nor- mal condition when I've been traveling-, arta you have coma right through from Boston." The guest demurred, but Mrs. Y was too executive aoid too truly hospit- able to allow his scruples to prevent the carryine out of her kindly intent. The English%an was shown upstairs to the bathroom, where it is tn be presumed he combined with, the progeess of his toilet, reflections upon the originality and practieality of American ho-pitality. Iu due time the guest descended again to the prior, where Mrs. I- await- ed him. “ I hope yon found everything to your mind," she said. • " Oh, yes," he replied, " 1 have had a delightful bath ; and now I must bid you good -afternoon, as I have to catch a train." "What !" cried the hostess aghast, “ you are not going ? " "Unfortunately°1 must. I only stop- ped over a train to con an you." "Mercy !." she exclaimed in dismay. "1 thought you had collie to remain. You certainty cannot go away when I haven't seen you at all.' "1 really must," was the reply ; " but I assure you I have had a most refresh- ing bath, aud 1 shall always remember with sincere pleasuretyour unique hospi- tality." The story was too good to keep, and Mrs. Y— told it at her own expense, greatly to the entertainment of her friends, who deelared that this faahien of entertaining collet's was one which de- served to be widely introduced, as it would salve many a perplexing question of the proper method of disposing of guests who were not easy to amuse.— Providence Journal. Love -Letters. Same one was saying the other day that the art of writiug Love -letters was a lost art. [Doubtless one of the par- rots wha keep reiterating that letter - writing in any way is a lost art: one is as true as the other, and both are stupid- ly false. ---ED.] If so, it must be that love has gone rather out of fashion. It seems to us that whoever loves will nat- urally write an irreproachable love -let- ter, if he &Rows his pen to report the emotions of his heart. To be sure, there are those prudent lovers who never put anything upon paper,—that is anything in partienlan—not ex.a.ctly because they eXpect to be sued for breach of promise some fine day, but because it is unsafe, and letters rim a great risk, pass through innumerable hands, and pretty phrases and endearments are too precious to be eudaagered. Others regard their emo- tions as too sincere and divine to be writ- ten out, and are afraid, perhaps, that they sail) savor of exaggeration; while others would like to express a great deal, but their thoughts tly awkandly fro-ris the pea, and seena to lose half their sig- nificance. Many who can talk love and nonsense by the yard lose their facility the instant they touch a pen ; they need the electric preeence of the object of in- spiration. the retort, the response, or they write an essay instead of a love - letter, Others, again, can produce the most delig-letful specimens of art, but are dumb before the shrine. Of course the love -letter which would seem like a drop of distilled honey to one recipient would appear cold and calculated to an other ; one wilt idealize even the baldest possible expressions tilt they will seem to shine with the radiance of love itself, will say all the writer would have to say if he knew how; while to her neighbor the sweetest words will not suffice to fill the measure of expectations and imagin- ation, since she always anticipates something sweeter than human thought can frame. One reads between the lines, and discovers there all the beauties she covets; the other wa,uts everything in black and white, and nothing left to the imagination. There are those who like to read from their love -letters to a curious or envious audience;.and others —a few—like Hawthorne, who wrote to his wife, " Your letters are too sacred to. be read in the midst of people. I never read them," he adds, "without first washing my hands." 013e would hardly care for them if she could not boast of their possession and advertise it; another feels that they are almost too personal and dear to mention, and learns the contents by heart, as if they were so Many poems, as indeed they are to her experience. The love -letter must not be too long, nor yet too short, but , of that jest measure that the reader shall always wish there were yet a little more, if only a, postscript;;and it should be of that qua,lity which suggests such lovely and tender thoughts, that on a second peru- sal one is surprised to find that they are notexpressed in so many words, so cer- tain was she that they originated with the writer.—United States Mail. -ots Kriss Kringle's Aids. ar BELLE MANSON They were ten of the noisiest child- ren you ever saw—wholesome, hearty New England children, born and brought up in one of those quaint little villages which have given us some of our best men and women, and where so much of good is dane which the great world may never hear of, but which is none the less true, for all that. The matter under discussion appeared to be of a very exeiting nature, Judging from the enthusiastic shouts and ener- getic clapping of hands which proceeded .from. Mrs. Danforth's comfortable kitch- en, where they were holding high con- sultatien. Mrs. Danforth, opening the door to see what all the noise was about, was greeted by a louder shout than had yet been indulged in, and was straight- way given the place of honor and made chairman of the meeting. The proceed- — ings which had already transpired were detailed to her sympathizing ear by her lively son Tom; how they had all been talking of what they would do to help Santa Claus in his disinterested efforts to make every one happy, and how Baby Jinks had innocently asked if ald, cro s Biddy would get anything in her stoc ing on Christmas morning allow that had set them thinking about cro s Biddy, and how poor she was, and- hon" very cold she must be on this raw. No- vember day; how'at last, they had de- termined .to use their savings to help old Biddy, and make her a little less cross, if possible. , • Little fingersavere very busy for some weeks tocome'and, as they soon proved, not in vain. The little girls made • a patchwork comfortable, two pairs of warm, coarse woolen stockings, a good Balmoral petticoat, and a nice Warm dress ; also a few little things for beau- tifying and making more comfortable the bare and cheerless little hut which Bidd called her home. The boys were not fa behind the girls iia their contributions Tom made a pretty wood -box, Carl a work -table, Bob a window box which he filled with some of his own choicest plants, and Hal a comfortable rocking= chair out of a barrel and a pair of dis4 carded rockers. Even Baby Jinks felt it necessary to exert himself, and so eon tributed (with mother's help) a pretty well-filled work basket. They had been working hard, all when, at last, the day before Christmas dawned, it was a deservedly happy group which once more gathered tol gether in the old farmhouse kitchen.j Each one placed in the various reeep tacles provided for the purpose, two large potatoes, two apples two turnips, two onibns, a pound of dour, a pound of sugar, and a quarter of a pound of tea. When they had all assembled, Tom's father came in, powdered all over with the feathery flakes which were falling fast outside, and held up to their delighted eyes a turkey, the like of which, it seemed to them, they had never seen before. Sueh a shout as there was, such a clapping of hands, and waltzing round generally, when they were told it was for them to give with the other things. ' When every- thing was at last peeled into the big wagon, what a scrambling there was, to be sure, a ten laughing, rosy chil- dren, and what a waving of hands tol Mrs. Danforth, who had helped them, with all her motherly oil, straight through !" "For," said she, " when the dear little things are willing to give their savings, and work with a will, it's only right we should give a helping hand." When the wagon load drew up be- fore old Biddy's hut, it was like I a dream to her, and when - Mr. Danforth, after unloading the wagon, undertook, in his kindly way, to explain matters, she broke down entirely. The children spent most of the d there putting things in order and rna • ing it "look like home," as Jinks sai ; and then they separated and returned to their respective shomes; having suc- ceeded in becoming Kriss Kringle's most efficient little aids. . t 37 And now it is night.

The WhOle Story. Ben Johnson lived in the time wlen po4s were not only expected to wilite all sorts of rhymes for pay, but: were generally very glad to get such jobs as composing epitaphs for rich mens tombstones, arid versified compliments for popular coffee-houses. No doubt, if Longfellow'had lived itt that day, he would not have had oc- casion to be angry with the man who should have called upan him., as a cer- tain salve peddler once did, with a re- quest to write a poem in praise of his salve, which he would have pripted on ,slips and circulated in advance to adver- tise his wares. But even Ben Johnson was Sometimes put to his wits' end to getup rhymes in praise of his rich patrons. Be [Vag once requested by a young man to Nitrite the epitaph of a man who had died load left him, the young man, a large estate. The poet wanted to know what the dead man had done—what he waslremarkable for. " Well," said the young man, "I can't say that he ever did anything?' " Did he ever give away m(Itnisyl in Charity?" 1 " N -no," said the young man ;I "not that I ever heard of.' “ WO he reputed to have done any kind acts ?" "Just lived, and kept his money, aud died in the same place, eh?" "That was about all." "How old was he when he died?" "Forty -s -ix , " said the young Man." " Well, that's something. I sup- pose there must be an epitaph. Let me see." Johnson paused and wrote a moment. " flow will this serve ?" he asked. ' The young man took the bit of paper, on which Johnson had written: "Here lies a man was born and cried. . Told six and forty years, and died" • Taking Life too Hardly. A sprightly Frenchwoman, driving down Broadway lately, said, ," Every man we meet looks as if he had gone out to borrow trouble, with plenty pf it on hand." Baron von Lehren, a famous scholar who visited this country, observed, the same peculiarity in the national tem- perament. "The Americans are the best fed, the best clad and the best housed people in the world; but the most anxious. They hug possible calamity to their breasts," he wrote of us. Of course, this is too hasty a gen- eralization, and the criticisms ,are not so true now as they were a generation ago. Nevertheless the disposition to borrow trouble and take life, not too seriously, but too anxiously, is all too coininon. -Our Scotch cousins, who have the same propensity for brooding over imaginary troubles, preach against it in many shrewd proverbs. "Neeer cross the bridge till ye come to the water." THE HIJI10,11 EXPOSITOR. " T e man who turns his fire into smoke will never be warm?'
