The smartest girl I. met in Iowa 1

rogy-clieeked girl of about twenty, as
fuli of tun and health and vigor as a
good girl can be. Two years agu Mime

her teaching about 111160, she last spring
borrowed a span if horses from her
father, rigged up a "prairie schooner,"
and, takitig her little brother, started
foe Dakota. bliss Clinton says laugh-
itioly to -day, speaking of her trip;
"Why, I never lived so nicely in iity
life. alai I never had such I an appetite,
courtesy I received everywhere;
rough, rude men would cote.) up to our
cent', and, after I had talked to them
awhileoiffer to build my tire and actually
bring waver to me. We went up through
the wheat country, which they call the
"Jim River country." It's about 100
miles east from the Missouri of Fort
Sell. I homesteaded 160 acres of land.
Then I took up a timber claim of 160
acres more."
"What is • timber claiin ?"
"Why, I hired a man, and we set out
ten acres of trees. This gave me 160
scree more; so 1 have 320 acres now.
But I :mist tell you about thou trees.
They were young locust,apple, and black
walnut sprouts. I sowed a peck of locust'
heat,r1, a pint of apple seed, and two
imaliels of black walnuts in our garden
iti Iosia a year ago. These sprouts were
lot ia feltews and we could set them out
fast—jt et go along and stiik them in the
grvund, hut they are just as good. •• I
belies, my 3,t00 little black wainnt
i.pr tuts will be worth $15 apiece in ten
yearn, and $20 apiev.e itt fifteen. My
locust trees will some time fence the
whole co
Then what del you do?
"We built a shanty, and broke up
five acres of land; and this fall we came
back to Iowa to spend the winter, and
here we are. In the spring 111 go back
with more black walnut and locust
sprouts and take 160 more. The trees
aria just what I want to plant anyway,
and they'll pay better than any wheat
crop that can be raised—only I've got to
wait for them ten or twelve years; but I
can waiL"
Here is a girl. %he owns in her own
right 320 acres uf splendid black prairie
soil now, and who will own 480 acres in
the spring, every acre of which will
bring $5 in three years, and $10 within
tire years, and 1120 within ten years.
Her black walnut and 'locust trees will
be worth 125,000.—[Letter to Chicago

11%terythIss Reversed Is Japes,
A Christian must here a new life,. a
hew nature. Nothing is tattght more ex-
plicitly in the Bible, and yet it seems as
if very few people ewer really think of
it; or if they de, don't believe it. What
we groW accustomed to doing in life, be-
comes a part of our nature. The musi-
cian learns to run his fingers over the
keyboard almost unconsciously. When
he has to make an effort to play correct-
ly—when he does not appear the same
at the piano as he does away from it—
when he is constrained, or awkward—
you at once know that he is not "at
home,- that playing has not beceme
natural to lum yet.
It is the same with the Christian life.
A man must live it naturally, er you
know he is an amateur at once. Good
deeds should flow frem a good nian un-
consciously. It should so be his nature
to do good that when he does s wood
deed it conies aa natural as any other
common act .1 life; for good should he
common. But how many can we point
out who are thus ' How many, the
rather, can we see who never, speak a
helping word or do an act of mercy, but
that their whole rr oier changes—they
put on their "Smithy face... They im-
plaints you at once with the fact that they
are doing, or about to do, something
very good; you would know it clear
aCrOSII the street. I ani not talking new
of the pompous man who does good to
be iseen of men --1 mean the c. notion
class of Christians. They no doubt do
good for the good's sake, but it doesn't
come natural to them. Wath some
good brother, stone time. as he straight-
ens himself up and changes his tone and
entire tnanner, to do soilefhing. 1 ou
will see at once that it isnO the poor
renew's nature to do it—he cant help
feeling a little bit strange; that this is
something he is not used to; or if he has
done se often, thatlit does not tiow en-
tirely from the goodness within lion —
them is still some that cornea front self.
Ah. brethren ! when will we learn the
lessan, that being a Christian is really
having • new nature—a nature full of
quiet, good works, which flow from it as
naturally as every -day acts de frem the
oId. -- [Church And Home.

papers is worth 'quoting (Good Word's,

The baker, children, is indeed the best
subject I have yet lectured upon. It
takes tli cake.
You 1 ve cakes, dont you, dears That
is to sey, all kinds (if cakes but stomach. aches.
The first baker I ever heard ( f woe
hanged for playing Phazotth a scurvy
trick, but hanged if I remember just
what it was. Bakers do not play faro
now, though they set uut a fair row iif
cakes aryl pios.
The baker is a great worker, except
when he has a slow oven ; theu he is apt
to be a slow-even-ly fellow.
Be careful not to make tart remarks to
the baker as his cart rolls along; he has
beim known to cracker fellow over the
head.
The baker never wipes off your score.
He cannot. He kneads the sponge.
Yoe would better not loaf about his
premises. He wants to do all the loafing
himself.
The baker purchases every kind of
bread-stutli, and much a the bread's
tough that he sells.
With all his baking he is seldom very
crusty.
The baker has been suspected of being
a pie house fraud This is not true. This
is proved by the fact that thirteen con-
stitutes a baker's dozen ; or it did before
thirteen waa found to 1 e an unlucky
number. Now the baker dozen try to
make you unlucky.
The baker is a great lover of flours.
He raises them. His rare dowers areon-
ly found in the yeast.
He is a well bread man, and makes
moat a -dough about it.
Bakers are as much given to marrying
as any other clasa of men, but you will
find many batches snout a bake shop.
Strange stories have been told of what
the baker puta in his pies; but these
stories are not true I know, because I
have looked into the pies. There is
very little in them, I can auure you.
11 every dog is to have his day, the
baker will have his. Why should the
bay cur be slighted
Children, you like to have your bread
done, and you will be glad to know that
I ant done too. ---(Boston Transcript.

From Rev. Richard Ede., (if Belo n,
Mass.: - ' For years I was a sufferer from
bells, so that my life became wearisome
through their frequent and persistent
recurrence. A carbuncle, which ulti-
mately occupied a space of three or four
square inches, formed in the smell of my
back. During its progress large pieces
of decomposed flesh were every day or
two cut away; and the prostratioo and
general disturbance of the system were
great. Before I had recovered from this
attack two small carbuncles broke out
higher up, and I was again threatened
with a recurrence of the sufferings to
which I had so long hem subjected. It
was at this time that I commenced tak-
ing the Pserviee SYRUP; I continued
taking it until 1 had used five bottles;
since then I have had nothing of the
kind. I attribute this improved state of
my system entirely to the Peru% ian Sy-
rup; and 1 feel that I cannot express my
obligations to it in terms too strong.
For years I was one of the greatest suf-
ferers. Other medicines gave nie par-
tial and temporary relief; but this re-
markable remedy, with a kind of intui•
tive sense, sent directly to the root of
the evil, and did i a work with a tho-
roughness worthy of its established char-
acter.- Sold by dealers generilly.

stood for many years as a warning
against all whistling in the mines, which
