She has never known any- thing like society. In the country with us, the social tide must always have been somewhat paralyzed, but there are monumental evidences of pleasures in other days that are' quite extinct now. You see big dusty ball -rooms in the old 'taverns ; ball -rooms that have had no dancing in them for half a century, anal where they give you a bed sometimes. There used to be academies, too, in the hill towns, where they furnished a rude but serviceable article of real learning, and where the local octogenarian re- members seeing something famous iu the way of theatricals onexamination day but neither his children nor his grand- children have seen the like. There's a decay of the religious sentiment, and the church is no longer a social centre, with merry meetings among the tomb- stones between the, morning and the afternoon service. ` Superficial humani- tarianism of one kind or another has killed the good old orthodoxy, as the railroads have killed the tui npikes and the country taverns ; and the common schools have killed the academies. Why, I dont suppose this girl ever saw anything livelier than a township cattle show, or a Sunday School picnic in her fife. They don't pay visits in the coun- try except at rare intervals, and their evening parties, when they have any, are something to strike yon dead with pity. They used to clear away the corn - husks and pumpkins on the barn floor, and dance by the light of tin hinters. At least, that's the traditional thing. The actual thing is sitting around four sides of the room' giggling, ;whispering, looking at photograph albums, and coax- ing somebody to play on the piano. The banquet is passed in the form of apples and water. I have assisted at some rural festivals where the apples were omitted. Upon the whole, I wonder our country people don't all go mad. They do go :mad, a great many of them, and manage to get a little glimpse of society in the insane asylums." Stani- ford ended his tirade with a laugh, in which he vented his humorous sense and his fundamental pity of the conditions he had caricatured. "But how;" demanded Dunham, breaking rebelliously -from the silence in which he had listened, " do you account for her good manner !" , •` She probably was born with a gen- ius for it. Some people are born with a genius for one thing, and some with a genius for another. I, for example, am an artistic genius, forced to be an am- ateur by the delusive possession of early wealth, and now burning with a crea- tive instinct in the direction of the sheep or cattle busineas,; you have the gift of universal optiuiisin ; Lurella Blood has the genius of good ,society. Give that girl a winter among nice people in Bos- ton, and you would never know that she was not born on ,Beacon Hill." could do for Lydia, it was his duty to talk to ber. He found another stool, and drew it up within osier conversa- tional distance. " Then you've been out of sight of land before ?" " No," said Lydia. " That's very curious—I beg your pardon;I mean you must find it a great novelty." ' (To be continued.) - never Counting the Cost. Hare you counted the cost, my brother, Of a draught from the maddening bowl, Is the pleasure so sweet, and the power as strong, That you barter for it your soul ? Have you weighed:the " pro's " and " con's, brother, Have you placed them side by side, And chosen for your's the drunkard's path, In your manhood's early pride ? The road is down grade and broad, brother, 'Tis enlivened by laughter and song, It has a great record which none may dispute, For 'the proofs are plain, many and strong. There are grass-grown,negleoted graves, brother There are ruined, deserted homes, There are starving children and weeping wives, To whotx no comfort e'er comes. There are dark prison cells, my brother, And the mad house its victims demands, And the coffin lid oft hides the mark Of a father's murdering hand. There are graves in the potter's Hold, brother, Unmarked by flower or stone, The lives went out ou the scaffold grim, In that last dread hour, alone. Home, friends, love, character, life, brother, And a soul eternally lost, Is it worth the price you pay, brother, Have you truly courted the cost. —Libie Patton Durst. THE 'P tJ ON EXPOSITOR. selves the opportunity of gathering what we can from its broader life. The prin ciple is constantly ignored in our vil- lages and towns. The sharp lined which are drawn between cliques is really often if not, as a rule, the fault of those who feel their social position to be less than that of another set, and, who assume a rigid formality when throw into their company. - The manner which shows deference combined with self-respecting independence is one'of the most charm- ing good society sees.—Chautauquan. Household Religion. Religion in the home is beginning at the root ` of things—a good place from which to begin to grow. There may be danger of talking religion too much in our homes, but there is no danger of living it too much. This is a busy world we are in, and in our lives, so full of many things, surprises are not ` infrequent. Perhaps we will be surprised, some day, sudden- ly to find that our sons and . daughters are men and women, and not such as we would have them be.' We love our children, but the time that should be given to them is not given, because something to -day and something else to - mor -row seems more pressing, if not more important. Do we, fathers and mothers, realize that our children's characters are probably formed before they are fourteen years of age? The brains of our children are just as busy as ' their restless hands and feet. What are the thoughts going in and out ? We careful house wives search the corners and closets and storerooms that no dust or cobwebs may be found there, but there may be recesses in our child- ren's hearts far more important for us to enter, where possibly unthought-of webs may be, and where, at all , events, they are likely to come if these active young lives are not filled with wholesome, pure purposes, and objects on which to ex- pend them, Many of our boys, in their little trades with each other, are doing what will, if developed into larger transactions, make them dishonest and untrust- worthy men. But the father is tired at night ; he does not realize the import- ance of giving his boy that training in absolute honesty and integrity which he should. We mothers, too, may insist on our children saying their prayers, but may neglect to make them hate and abhor a lie, or anything approaching it. We may fail to teach our children by ex ample, if we do no by precept, the beauty of self-control. W e rarely know when the strong impressions are made upon then—at times doubtless when we' least think of it. One mother a has written of one of those lessons learned, when her mother had no thought of the good she was doing her child. I quote her words. " One day, when I was a very little girl, I was watching my mother make strawberry preserves. I can see the great kettle of boiling liquid now, clear as rubies. Beside the stove stood a large pan containing some squash for ' company pies,' with plenty of milk and eggs in it. 'Now, Bridget,' said my mother, at last in a satisfied tone, 'it is done ; take the kettle off.' This was accomplished, and then, with almost incredible stupidity, the girl actually emptied the strawberries into the squash ! My mother turned her head just too late. She was quick and impulsive, but there escaped from her only a despairing 'Oh, Bridget 1' - Then, as she saw the girl's instantly regretful face, she uttered no word of reproach or useless lamentation. No doubt, when my tired mother, was not strong (I lost her at fifteen), went upstaire to rest, she. felt disheartened, and thought that her preserves and squash, her time and labor had all been waated ; butprobably she never did for me a more valuable morn• ing's ' wor k than'. when she gave that sweet, unconsciouslesson in self-con- trol." - Our pastors often preach earnestly about Christianity in business life, but the business men of the near future are running about our streets, and will be mainly then what they are now. - Is there enough. attention given them in either home or the church ? , ,The same laws, we know well, pertain to the mental and spiritual part of us as to the physical. They are .just as absolute. 'We train our physical and mental powers by exercise. We must, if we expect any moral nerve and sinew, see that the conscience does not lie dormant, and that our children do right from love of right. They must be trained to realise that making character is vastly more important than making money. The keynote their lives are set to rings out early. Let us do all we can to make it true and clear. May, the good Lord help us in our weakness, and make our children better than their parents 1 . - " Oh, I doubt that," said Dunham. " You doubt it ? Pessimist 1" "But you implied just now that she had no sensibility," pursued Dunham. "So I did 1" cried Staniford, cheer- fully. " Social genius and sensibility are two very different things ; the cynic might contend they were incompatible, but I won't insist so far. 1 dare say she may regret the natal spot ; most of us have a dumb, brattish attachment to the earl luoglii ; but if she knows any- thing, she hates its surroundings, and must be glad to get out into the world. I should like mightily to know how the world strikes her,as. far as she has gone. But I doubt if she's one to betray her own counsel in any way. She looks deep, Luella does." Staniford laughed again at the pain which his insistence upon.the name brought into Dunhem's face. • Ten Good Things to Know. 1. That salt will curdle new milk, hence in preparing milk porridge, gravies,etc.,the Balt should not be added until the dish is prepared. 2. That clear . boiling water will re- move tea stains and many fruit stains. Pour the water through the stain and thus prevent its spreading over the fabric. 3., That ripe tomatoes will remove ink and other stains from white cloth, also from the hands. 4. That a tablespoonful of turpentine boiled with white clothes will aid in the whitening process. 5. That' boiled starch is much improv- ed by the addition of a little sperm, salt or gum arabic dissolved. 6. That beeswax and salt will make rusty flat irons as clean and smooth as glass. Tie a lump of wax in a rag, keep it for that purpose. When the irons are hot, rub them first with the wax rag, then scour with paper or cloth sprinkled with sal t. 7. That blue ointment and kerosene mixed in equal proportions and applied to' the bedsteads is an unfailing bedbug remedy,as a coat of whitewash is for the walls of a log house. 8. That kerosene will soften boots or shoes that have been hardened by water, and render them as pliable as new. 9. That kerosene will make a tin tea kettle as bright as new. Saturate a woolen rag and rub with it. It will also remove stains from varnished furni- ture. 10. That cool rain water and soda will remove machine grease from washable fabrics. - IMPORTANT NOTICES1 BREEDING MARES FOR SALE.—Two good Breeding Mares with foals at feet, foaled April 2nd, will bo sold cheap.

They both slept so long that Dunham, leaving Staniford to a still unfinished nap, came on deck between five and six o'clock. Lydia was there, wrapped against the freshening breeze in a red knit shawl, and seated on a stool in the waist of the ship, in the Evangeline attitude, and with the wistful, Evangeline look in ber face, as she gazed out over the far -wel- tering sea -line, from which all trace of the shore had vanished. She seemed to the young man very interesting, and he approached her with that kindness for all other women in his heart which the lover feels in absence from his beloved, and with a formless sense that some ret- ribution was due her from him, for the roughness with which Staniford had surmised her natural history. Women had always been dear and sacred to him; he liked, beyond most young men, to be with them ; he was forever calling upon them, getting introduced to them, wait- ing upon them, inventing little services for them, corresponding with them, and wearing himself out in their interest. It is said that women do not value men of this sort so much as men of some other sorts. It was long, at any rate, before Dunham—whom people always called Charley Dunham --found . the woman who thought him more lovely than every other woman pronounced' him ; and naturally Miss Hibbard was the most exacting of her sex. She required all those offices which Dunham delight- ed so render, and many besides ; being an invalid, she - need.ed devotion. She had refused Dunham before going out to Europe with her mother, and she had written to take him back after she got there. He was now on his way to join her in Dresden, where he hoped that he might marry her, and be perfectly sac- rificed to her ailments. She only lacked poverty in order to be thoroughly dis- pleasing to ?moat men ; but Dunham had no misgiving save in regard to ' her money ; he wished she had no money. " A good deal more motion, isn't there ?" he said to Lydia, smiling sun- nily as he spoke, and holding his hat .with one hand. " Do you find it un- pleasant ?" "No," she answered, not at all. I like it." " Oh, there isn't enough swell to make it uncomfortable, yet," asserted Dun- ' ham, looking about to see if there was not something he could do ., for her. And you may turn out a good sailor. Were you ever at sea before?" - "No ; this is the first time I was ever on a ship." "Is it possible 1" cried Dunham ; he was now fairly at sea for the first time himself, though by virtue of Ma Euro- pean associations he seemed to have made many voyages. It appeared to him that if there was nothing else he BULL FOR SERVICE.—The undersigned has for service on Lot 10, Concession 10, Morris, a thoroughbred Durham bull. Terms. —$1.60 to insure.
