SPRING FLOWERS. - Oh ! dainty baby foresters, That hide in silent nooks. That linger by the cow-paths. And iieep into the brooks ; To me you are the warden " ' '.J Of the realm of Ixrag Ago, 4 "' At whose soft beck unnumbered forms like shadows come and go. By mossy rocks and nodding ferns You lift yoor timid eyes, i And by the wounded maple-trees In smiting graDpe-ariae. Ko more the shrieking winter winds Affright the naked woods, But all ta scented aisles are gar - i - i With Flan's dappled hoods. Though years have sped since first for me You made the meadows bright, ' And many a sunset-tinted dream .' ' Has faded into night, ; till do I hail with boyish lore The violets' sweet perfume Still joy to see the crocus burst Like T srsrns from the tomb. I thrill to see the buds again Upon the apple-tree. Where every branch is eloquent Of glories yet to be; Where soon the winged Argonauts, '. From lands beyond the main. Will sing their merry love-songs. AxiJ build their homes again. I traoe the tints of deathless Hope, Sweet flowers, in all your beauty ; Ton come aa meek interpreters Of man's exalted doty, r - ' - , You whisper of a dawning heaven Beneath ns as above.

There " was real sorrow in Robert ' Franklin's voice and eyes as he spoke, and the lady -who listened ' drew her merry, saucy face into dolorous puckers to suit the occasion. . - . t i Because, you see," continued Rob- j ert, "he fancies because you have twenty thousand dollars that you are a fine lady, affected and useless, not the wife for a poor-farmer !" '' " -We must show him his mistake," was the reply. . But lie will not see you. . He positively forbids your com ing over to the farm." - " Does does he know we are mar ried?" r " I have not dared to tell him. Cow ardly, is it not t But he is my only rela tive, and I love him dearly. It is not because he owns the farm and can leave a little money, Daisy " 'Hush, love, I know," Daisy an swered, putting a soft, white hand over her husband's lips. - " I have had no other father, or mother either, for that matter, in all my life," continued Robert, " and if ' the form is dreary, it is home." " And you do not like to be banished ! Well, if you will keep your promise, and send Jane over to see me, you shall not be. , Now, talk of something else. Oh, how can I let you go for two long months !" But Robert Franklin had undertaken to go in person to see about some West ern lands in which his uncle had invest ed, and which threatened to involve him in loss. Daisy could not well take the long journey, and besides Daisy had other schemes in her wise little head. Loving Robert well, she resolved to re move the only shadow from his life the resolute opposition of his uncle to a fine lady wife. -1 Robert Franklin had been gone from the farm three days when his uncle James yielded reluctantly to the pangs of his old enemy, chronic rheumatism, and told Jane, his only servant, that he must remain , in his room. . The old woman answered promptly: " If you are going to be laid up, Mr. Franklin, I must have some help. I'm getting old, too, sir, and trotting up and J down stairs isn't so easy as it was twenty year ago!" , ' But who will come, Jane? Girls are not plenty here, as you know." "I've a niece, .sir, would cometo me, though, she's never lived out." " Send for her. then, and oh ! rub my leg, will you t" Late in the afternoon a little bustle below stairs told the invalid of the ar rival of the niece. She came with one trunk, in a wagon,' from the railway station, and, standing in the wide, dreary looking kitchen, looked a picture of healthful beauty. Soft brown curls gathered in a rich knot left little crinkly ringlets on forehead and caressing the round white throat; large brown eyes lighted a sweet, fair face, and the neat dress of blue woolen covered a dainty figure. "Will you go tip-stairs, Miss V Jane hesitated. " Margaret !" said the new-comer; don't call your niece Miss whatever you do. My name is Margaret. Has ' Mr. Franklin had his supper f" "Not yet There's his dinner, you see, scarcely tasted." ; Maigaiet looked 'at the big tray the blue plate with food heaped upon it, the two-pronged fork and half -soiled napkin, and did not wonder at the neglected ' food. ' Show me where things are and I will get the supper," she said. Jane led her from closet to closet. In one was a set of gilt-edged china, some fine table linen, tabl silver and glass. ' " Those were bought thirty years ago," Jane whispered, "when Mr. Franklin expected to be married. She died and thev"ve never been used." - With her pretty face saddened by the bidden tragedy of those few words, Mar garet took a small tray from the shelf, and, covering', it with a snowy . napkin, selected what she wanted from the closet, and went agaim to the kitchen. 1 James Franklin, weary with the effort to hold a book in his aching hands, was now sitting .in; a deep arm-chair ; musing when Margaret tapped at the door. "Come in!" ..- But he started as she obeyed. . Such a sweet, bright face was new in the dismal old farm-house, strongly in contrast with the bare, meager room and desolate air j aurrounding her. ! i . "I have brought your supper," she said, drawing a httks table near to the arm-chair and covering - it with a white cloth. Then, ' going to the door, she entered again with a tray. Upon a white china dish was naif a chicken, delicately browned, potato roasted in the ashes; and a slice of buttered toast ; and be side this a delicate cup full of fragrant tea, ' - -." ,1 ' " You must not scold if I have any ihink wrong," said a clear, sweet voice, " because Aunt Jane is too busy to look after me, I cleaned the fork and spoon, for silver gets dreadfully black" then more tenderly, as she marked the pain ful effort to move the tortured finger Let me cut the chicken, sir." Grimly; wondering, the old man suf fered himself to be fed, finding appetite as the well-prepared food was eaten, and listening well pleased to the cheery voice an rmfamiliftr in his lonelv life. :Jane'Margaret said, setting down the trayskS the- kitchen again, "I don't wonder he' is sick. : No carpet, no cur tains, that great Hearse of a Joed, and nothing pretty near-him."" - ' "It's ill dean," said Jane. "Clean as wax, but oh! so doleful. Can't we fix up a oosey room?" " There's rooms enough. Six on that floor." said Jane, "and none used but the one Mr. Franklin's in, and Mr. Rob ert's, the little one next to it." "Well, we'll see to-morrow. Can I have a man to send to town if I want anything?" "There's men enough. Will you sleep down here to-night, or in one of the rooms up-stairs ?" , "Down here, in the room next yours. " "It's all ready. I'll go up now and make Mr. Franklin comfortable for the night" " . , , . "Comfortable!" Margaret said, shiv ering. But the next morning, after putting a tempting breakfast before the invalid, Margaret selected the vacant bed-room she meant to beautify for his use. It was large, with four windows, light and cheerful, and well suited to her purpose. In the intervals of directing Jane, send ing the man to town with her orders, and giving her own dainty touch to every thing, Margaret visited the invalid, read ing to him, chatting with him, and mak ing the long hours fly by. It was late in the afternoon when she came in to say: " Mr. Franklin, the room across the hall has a southern exposure, and I think you will find- it more comfortable than this one. Will you try to get there if Aunt Jane and I help you? " I'm very well here." " But you will be better there. Please come." So he yielded, but once fairly in the room, could not repress a cry of amaze ment. Softly-carpeted, white-curtained, a bright fire cracking in the stove, a dainty supper spread upon the table, the room was cosew and cheery enough to coax a smile from the grimmest Jips. Yet, when James Franklin sank into the bright chintz-covered easychair and looked around livm, everything was strangely familiar. That was the parlor carpet taken from the never-opened room below, those were the parlor cur tains freshly ironed and starched and held back with knots of broad pink rib bon. The bed, bureau, wardrobe, chairs, and all were his own, polished till they shone again. The snowy bed-linen, the white counterpane, the bureau covers with their knotted fringe were all his sister's work, stored away in chests since she died, long, long years ago. Even the chintz on the chair was part of some old curtains he had stuffed away in a long-forgotten corner of a closet. " It is very comfortable, and you are a good, thoughtful girl," he said, looking round with a keen appreciation of the added comfort. " I wonder we never thought of using these things." s " Now let me read the rest of our book to you. I have some new periodicals in my trunk if you will look at them." The days flew by, cold weather strengthening, till Robert wrote he was coming home one chill January day. Margaret had been'Tjusy for a fortnight before in the lower part of the house, but Mr. Franklin asked no questions. He had been very ill, but was recovering, so. that he hoped te welcome Robert in the sitting-room. How he shrank from returning to its dreariness, and sending Margaret away, he told no one till he held his nephew's hand fast clasped in his own. "I can never tell you, Robert," he said then, " what Margaret has been to me. No daughter could have tended me more patiently and faithfully, and when I could listen she read to me, and talked as pleasantly as if I were a com panion to her, instead of a grumpy old bachelor past sixty." 4 - " ' ''"c "I am triad vou have been well cared for," Robert said, turning his head to I hide a merry twinkle in his eyes ; t " you look very fine here !" But when he carefully led the old man I to the sitting-room, both stood amazed. Was the handsomely carpeted, cheerfully furnished room the dreary old place in which they had been so well contented ? While they wondered a new sound greeted them the tones Of a piano touched by skilled fingers, and a voice sweet and clear singing a song of wel come. - - ir' Throwing open a door to disclose a beautifully furnished parlor, Robert saw also a little figure on the piano stool, clad in a shining black silk,'; with soft lace and pretty jewelry to adorn it. " Margaret 1" Uncle James cried. s f But Robert said softly : 1 ; ' - 1 " Margaret Franklin, Uncle "James. Daisy, my wife!" ... Then she came forward with shining eyes. x wan tea to mane you love me, sue said in a low, tender voice, " for Rob ert's sake!" "And for your own," he answered; "but I am bewildered, my dear. Where did these fine things come from ?" - "From my old home. Xney are an mine, and you will let tnem stay nere, will you not, for our new home ?" she added, shyly slipping her hand into Robert's. , "I don't want to take Robert from you, Uncie James, when he is all you have to love, but if you will give me a place here too, I will try to be a good daughter to you." " Give von a place here 1 the old man cried; " I think no greater grief could come to me now, Margaret, than the thought of losing you. God ever bless you, cnild ! lor lew as your age wovuu have cared to so kindly overcome an ob stinate old man's stupid prejudices." "Thank you," she wmspereci, xoucn- ing her lips to his for the first time; " you have made me very nappy.. And as she presided over the carefully appointed table in a ooseyly furnished dininfr-room Uscle James had used for . - . . - , i spare Harness ana oags oi gram, out which was transformed beyond 1 recogni tion, there was no cloud on the bright ness of the face of Robert's wife. Hearth and Home, ' Term Afforfc of Captain Bovton to cross the British. Channel in an inflated- india rubber dress was virtually successful. It is true that he was taken on board a steamer when within eight miles of the French coast, but heKwas perfectly able to con tinue his trip except for the circum stance that night was close at hand, and it was judged unwise for him to attempt a landing after dark.'1' The fact is thus triumphantly demonstrated that a dress has been, invented sufficiently . buoyant to sustain a man on the, water for almost any length of time, and so skillfully con trived mat, tne wearer can, wnue iymg on his back, propel himself with a pad- dls at -the rate ot . three nones an neur. What is of almost equal importance with its buoying property is the protection which, it affords from cold. The strata of air enclosed, between the surface of the wearer's body and the dress is so ex cellent a non-conductor that, as Captain Boyton has proved by actual experiment, the wearer can remain in water of the temperature of thirty-two otegreerf iPah-iJ ouuoi tux consecuuve noun wiuiuut feeling celd.

Mrs. Partington. j j Mrs. Partington is considered a myth-; ical person evolved from the brain of Mr. Shillaber, but her counterparts are often found in real life. One of these., ladies was overheard at an evening assembly speaking in high praise of a pretty girl just passing. j : "Why, she is a perfect paragram of a young lady I" ' " -' ) "I think you mean parallelogram; do you not?" suggested the waggish gentle man addressed. m, . , , jf "I said parallelogram, Mr. ," ex claimed the lady, with a combination of dignity and indignation impossible to de scribe." .. . "Do you 'intend to masticate your house?" inquired a Western lady of a friend of mine who was building. ' He was a critical, cultured New Englander, as exact as witty. What a droll look came over his face as he answered: j " My wife says I eat like an anaconda, and I am blessed with the digestion of an ostrich; but, really, madam, I don't think I could manage my three-story brick." This makes me think of . Leigh Hunt's reply (not at all a malapropy) to a lady who said to him at dinner: i "Mr. Hunt, won't you venture on an' orange. . .. : - . : , "I would most gladly, dear madam, only I'm afraid I should tumble off. " But to keep to our theme. A lady vis iting Washington for the first time sent word to friends at home that she was dreadfully disappointed; she meant to have got an Indian Bureau for Jennie's room, but there weren't any to be had; and that she was so busy shampooing a young lady from one "place to another that she had no time to write letters. A rather old girl (who had been lured to California by the cheering information that she was sure to marry there) laid siege to a wealthy widower, who at first showed signs of succumbing, but finally resisted the attack. As usual with women who are intensely disappointed, she " didn't care; no, not one bit." And she exclaimed, half sobbing, to a bosom friend: ' "Why, I wouldn't be hired to marry him, hateful old thing ! I wouldn't take him, not if he was a perfect Venus" As money was his chief charm, we sup pose she meant Croesus Scribner for May. . .. - I ; Finger-Sails, i A writer says : " If finger-tips have a language of their own, so have the nails; and the manner of keeping them is as eloquent its all the rest. Some keep them long and pointed, like reminia cences of claws; others bite theirs close to the quick; some pare and trim and scrape and polish up to the highest point of artificial beauty; and others, carrying the doctrine of nature to the outside limit, let them grow wild, with jagged edges, broken tracts, and tagnails, or 'black friend' as the agonizing conse quences. Sometimes you see the most beautiful nails, pink, transparent, filbert shaped, with the delicate filmy little ' half -moon' indicated at the base all the conditions ef beauty carried to per fection, but all rendered of no avail by dirt and slovenliness; while others, thick, white-ribbed, square, with no half-moon, spotted like so many circus-horses with ' gifts' and ' friends' - and the like that is, without beauty and with positive blemishes are yet pleasant i to look at for the care bestowed on them, their dainty perfection of cleanliness being a charm in itself. Nothing, j indeed, is more disgusting than dirty j hands and neglected nails, as nothing gives one such a sense of freshness and care as the same members - well kept. But -one- of the ugliest things in nails is j when they are bitten; which, to judge by what one sees, is a habit having irresistible fasci nations for those given over to it. It is an action, by the way, that has more than one significance. It suay mean consideration, doubt, hesitancy; or it may mean anger or annoyance; or as a habit it may point to the not remote pos sibility of madness. In any case it is ugly to look at, and worse than ugly in its results; bare finger-tips, with the pro tecting cover : knawed to the bleeding flesh, belonging to the list of things mutilated and wilfully spoiled therefore taken out of the category of things ugly by nature, hence misfortunes for which the sufferer is in no wise accountable," A Noble Dog. j A vessel was driven on the beach at Lydd, in England. - The surf was rolling furiously. Eight -poor fellows were cry ing for help, but no boat could be got off to their assistance. At length a gentleman came on the beach, accom panied by his Newfoundland dog. - He directed the attention of the animal to the vessel, and put a short stick into his mouth. The intelligent and courage ous fellow at once understood his mean ing, and sprang into the sea and fought his way through the waves.

Who is there that does not resjject the memory of Father Matthew, the great champion of temperance ? Innumerable societies bear his honored name ; but there is one man who has struck a more sure death blow t intemperance, and that man is Db. J. Walker, an old California phy sician, who has discovered in nature's "meek and lowly herbs, ' a medicinal "tonic " and gentle stimulant that com pletely takes the place of the fashionable alcoholic poisons called " tonics, so popular as a compromise between strong drink and cold water, and does away with the mania for drink, and in reality culti vates an involuntary disgust . for the same. It even does more : It acts upon the entire physical system, purines the blood, and produces hale, hardy health.

The question Is almosi daily asked, What is the cause of the unparalleled success of Vinegar Bit ters T" Our answer is, that they remove the cause of disease, and the patient re covers his health. They are the crea: blood purifier and a life-civincr principle, " a perfect Renovator and invigorator of the system. Never before in the history of the . world bos a medicine been compounded -possessine tbe remarkaH e qualities of Vinegar Bitters in LenliujriDe sick or every disease, man is heir to.

Bilious, Remittent and Inter mittent Fevers,' which are so preva lent in the valleys of our great rivers throughout the United States, especially those of the Mississippi, Ohio, Missouri, Illinois, Tennessee, Cumberland, Arkan sas, Ked, Colorado, Brazos, Rio Grande, Pearl, Alabama, Mobilo, Savannah, Ro anoke, James, and many others, with tlieir vast tributaries, throughout our entire country during the Summer and Autumn, and remarkably so during sea sons of unusual heat and dryness, are invariably accompanied bv extensive de rangements of the stomach and liver, and other abdominal viscera. In their treatment, a purgative, exerting a pow erful influence upon these various or gans, is essentially necessary. There is no cathartic for the purpose equal to Dr. J.
