GO THROUGH.
BY LILL1JC E. BA EH.
When I was a careless girl I rode by my father'
side, .
Over the Ulverstone sands, where rapid and
deep is the tide;
Up from the Solway it came, while lan'ward the
great winds blew;
"Father," I sobbed, "the channel is deep, Oh,
what shall we do?"
And I hear through the clamor of years, his
cheery "Go Through!"
ii.
The fog came down like a curtain, the day was
stormy and cold.
Over the dumb wet sands we rode, while tie
Solwai deeper roll'tl;
Rolling for life against wind and tide, quicker
and quicker we flew,
Till the last of the shifting fords was passed, and
Home in view.
"Dear girl," he sa d, "when you're in a strait,
don't stop to fear Go Through!"
HI.
"Go Through!" These words have found my
soul, and been to it a guide,
When sorrow's wo ves, more swift and deep than
Sol way '8 highest tide,
Have found me on dreary shores, where not a
friend I knew,
And hemmed me round with billows cold, while
loud the sad winds blew;
Then o'er the storm blown space I've heard,
"Don't stop to fear Go Through!"
iv.
When life has seemed too hard for me, and from
my weary hand
My task has dropp'd; I've heard again the sharp
and clear command;
When 'Hills of Difficulty' rose, and o'er the
pathway grew
The thorns and briars of petty cares, the cheerful
voice I knew
Called clear across the weary years, "Stop not to
fear Go Through!"
v.
Oh, never doubt! No tide can rise, so swift, and
cold and deep,
That it shall hinder thee, the straighttnd home
ward road to keep;
No mist can fall, that shall have power to hide
thy heavenward view;
Only unto thy highest thought, to Love and Toil
be true:
And thou may say in every strait, "Brave Soul,
True Soul! Go Through!"
My Wife's Sew Friend.
Mrs. Jones has quite a habit of culti
vating sadden friendships, which have
every appearance of blooming eternally.
but which soon wither in the world's
cold blasts. I nsed to think this charac
teristic was confined to school girls, who
Bwear immortal fidelity in letters crossed
and recrossed, but forget each other as
soon as they have caught a lover.
My wife's last acquisition in the way
of a bosom friend is Mrs. Mortimer
Mowbray, with whom she became ac
quainted last summer, whje we were
boarding out of town.
Mrs. Mortimer Mowbray had her car
riage with her, and created quite a sen
sation ; in fact, every lady in the house
was eager to become her confidante; but
the amiable deportment of Mrs. Jones,
combined, I doubt not, with hei intel
lectual accomplishments, rendered her
the favorite; and she it was who daily
occupied the spare seat ia the coach, and
had the honor of advising Mrs. Mow
bray in those thousand grave perplex
ities under which women suffer.
We returned to the city after the
Mowbrays, but my wife, although
usually very firm on questions of eti
quette, waived her privileges on this oc
casion, and made the first call. She was
graciously received, and came home in
high spirits.
All that evening she could do nothing
but talk of Mrs. Mortimer Mowbray.
"Such an elegant eetablishment," she
said. "A footman with manners like a
prince, waited at the door. The draw
ing room was the perfection of luxury
and taste. Mrs. Mowbray had on such
a aweet cap, and altogether looked so
ladylike. Her manners were, indeed,
most aristocratic, just what one would
suppose those of a countess to be."
In a few days Mrs. Mowbray returned
my wife's call, coming in a shining new
carriage, and with a new span of horses.
Her equipage created quite a sensation
in our street.
Mrs. Jones soon after this began to act
as though brooding over some vast de
sign, which, not being quite matured,
she deemed it wise to be silent respect
ing. At last, however, the mighty secret
was gently broached.
"I was thinking, Jones," she said one
night, just as I was composing myself to
sleep on my pillow, "that we ought to
give a party. Not a regular ball, indeed ,
but a select entertainment, where a few
congenial minds may be brought to
gether. I should like so to introduce
my dear Mrs. Mowbray to some of the
choicest of our set.
Now I detest parties, small or large,
but as the delicacy of my wife's nerves
does not allow of her being thwarted, 1
made no objection to the proposal, though
l signed to myseu.
"Of course, my dear," I said, "you
Jmow best.
"Well ask about thirty," continued
my wife, warming with the subject.
"There's Mrs. Wharton, and Mrs. Hor
ace Shinn, and Mrs. Price, and the three
Misses Trelawneys," and thus the dear
creature ran on until she had mentioned
about forty names, and I saw that her
"select party of congenial souls was
going- to be after all a crowded ront.
"You have forgotten the two Misses
Howell," I said at last when my wife
stopped for breath.
The two Misses Howell were amiable,
intelligent and pretty girls, in whom I
took a particular interest because their
father had once been an extensive ship
ping merchant, but having been reduced
tne Bisters were compelled to earn a live
lihood by standing in a store. They had
numerous rich relations on whom they
might have billeted themselves, but, with
. a spirit oi proper independence, they
preferred to work for their maintenance,
instead of eating the brea3 of charity.
I had nourished a romantic idea of see
ing them married well, and consequent
ly made it a point always to invite them
to our parties; to praise them highly to
the young gentlemen there, and in every
other indirect way to assist in realizing
my pet scheme.
My wife, heretofore, had seconded me
in my benevolent plan; but on the pres
ent occasion she hesitated to reply and
I knew at once that there was something
the matter.
"Ahem!" she said at last, clearing her
throS. "Ahem! The Misses Howell
are very nice girls to be sure that is in
their place but as it is to be a select
party, and as I have already mentioned
rather too many, and as Mrs. Mowbray
may not want to meet all sorts of people,
and as "
"Stop my dear." I said with a sigh,
for I saw that my favorites were not to
be invited, "you have given reasons
enough. It is a great pity though."
And I sighed again a sigh of passive
resignation.
My wife heard my sighs, and her ten
der heart was touched. She paused a
moment in embarassment, and perhaps
even revolved the idea of yielding to my
wishes, but, in the and, she raised her
self on her elbow and ;id:
"Mr. Jones, do listen to reason. You
don't know how foolish you make your
self about those Howell girls. They've
been unfortunate.to be sure; and they're
very passable indeed ; bnt there's, a prej
udice, against girls who stand in stores;
and who knows but what Mrs. "Mowbray
would take offense at my inviting such
persons to meet her? I shouldn't like to
do it indeed, without first asking her;
and I can't do that this time. She's
very particular and so excessively high
bred'
"Then I don't think she'd regard you
the less, my dtar " I ventured to say
"for being acquainted with two such
excellent girls as Patty and Lizzie
Howell."
"Mr. Jones, don't be a child," replied
my wife, flinging herself on the other
side of tne bed. "At your age you
should know something of the world.
Exclusive people, like Mrs. Mowbray,
don't care to meet nobodies. She was
very choice, as you say, as to whom she
admitted to her acquaintance this sum
mer; I may say, indeed, that I am the
only one of all she met whom she recog
nizes now.
To have protracted the conversation
would have excited my wife's nerves and
deprived her of sleep, so 1 said no more,
but closed my eyes and courted slumber
anew. 1 have no recollection of any
thing after that, till I awoke the next
morning, and leaving airs. joDes aoed,
as usual, went down to see that the fires
were all right, and do the marketing
while the breakfast was being prepared
The invitations to the party were
issued that week. Mrs. Mortimer Mow
bray graciously promising to attend.
When the important evening arrived,
my wife was all nerves. At every ring
of the bell the color rose to her face with
expectation; but guest after guest en
tered without Mrs. Mowbray appearing
Her nervousness soon began to change to
anxiety, and this, as the hours wore on,
to disappointment and dismay. ne de
laved the supper for a full hour, think
ing that her new friend might yet ar
rive; but in vain.
"What can be the matter, I wonder?"
she said to me, as soon as we were alone
"I hope the dear babe is well. Perhaps,
however, Mrs. Mowbray is herself sick.
Dear me. I am afraid I shall not sleep
for anxiety. The first thing 111 do to
morrow will be to call on Mrs. Mowbray
and see what is the matter.
"Wouldn't that be against etiquette?"
I ventured to ask. "It seems to me that
Mrs. Mowbray should send you a note
or message, or something of that sort, at
least, to apologize for her absence.
Mrs. Jones did not reply in words,
but she gave me a look. And such a
look1 It expressed all the indignation
which her outraged bosom felt at hav
ing the slightest suspicion cast upon her
friend.
When I came home to dinner that day,
1 saw at a glance that something had oc
curred to ruffle my wife's nerves. She
had nothing whatever to say to me, but
she scolded the servants and children in
cessantly. I was too wise to inquire
what was . wrong. I knew that Mrs.
Jones, if she thought proper, would tell
me ; and if not, that idle questions would
only aggravate the secret troubles.
But the next day, having heard some
thing that cast light on Mrs. Mowbray's
absence from our party, I could not con
tain myself when I came home.
"Did you ever hear, my love," I said,
as I began to carve the turkey at dinner,
"that the Misses Howell had a married
sister?"
Mts. Jones looked sharply up, as if
she suspected 1 meant more than 1 said,
and then answered laconically.
"I heard it casually, but never asked
further.
"It seems," I continued, "that Mrs
Mortimer Mowbray i& that sister."
"I have- heard so since, -said Mrs
Jones, sharplv; and, turning to our sec
ond child, who was asking for the wing
bone, she rapped him over the head, ex
claiming tartly : "Haven 1 1 told you to
wait until you were helped ? Take that
now, and then learn manners."
I allowed a minute and more to elapse,
in order that my wife's ebullition might
subside, when I remarked :
"Mrs. Mowbray, it seems, expected to
meet her here.
"I shouldn't wonder if she did." snap
pishly said Mrs. Jones, looking down in
her plate, and apparently absorbed in
parting a wmg-ioint.
"When she found,"! continued, "that
her sisters were not asked, she grew in
dignant. She heard the reason, it seems
Your friend Mrs. Wharton, whom you
nad made a oonndante, told some lady,
who told her, and hence her anger."
"I am sure I don't care if I don't see
the proud thing again." said mv wife.
reddening very much, but still without
looking up. "One could not have enp
posed that she was a sister to the Misses
Howell."
After another pause, I said:
"Did you call on Mrs. Mowbray, as
you intended T
Mrs. Jones was silent for a full min
ute, and seemed half disposed to decline
answering altogether, but finally she
blurted out her reply, as follows:
"Yes, I did, since yon must know.
And she wasn't in. So, at least, the foot
man said; but if I didn't see her at the
drawing-room window," and here she
broke into tears of mortification and rage,
"may I never eat another mouthful."
I saw that it would not do to continue
the conversation; so I quietly ate my
dinner, kissed the children, and, like the
Christian in "The Pilgrim's Progress,"
went my way.
Of course the intimacy of my wife with
Mrs. Mowbray ceased from the date of
that fatal party; and, I am sorry to say,
that the Misses Howell also have, as the
phrase goes, "cut our acquaintance."
A Canning Cat.
A gentleman who took a trip into the
country yesterday, when on the plains, a
mile from any house, noticed a cat, a
hnge one, almost as large as a fair-sized
dog. It was lying upon the ground, its
feet uppermost, in such a .way that he
had no doubt it had fallen a victim to
some vicious dog. Around it, feeding
unsuspiciously, was a flock of small
birds. The' apparently lifeless cat was
within range of the vision of the ob
server for some time, and just as he was
thinking how much easier it would be
for an animal to feign death and catch a
bird by deceiving it than by slipping up
to it, he was astonished to see the cat
suddenly roll over and grab one of the
feathered tribe that was very near. The
other birds flew away a hundred yards or
so and alighted. The oat only made one
or two mouthfuls of the game and .then
crept around to the windward of the
birds, laid itself down, and once more
successfully played the dead dodge. The
gentleman drove awav without seeing
how many birds it took to satisfy the
feline. Carson Appeal.

Not Bad
. The Bridgeport Standard tells the fol
lowing story "for true" :
At a church sociable sometime ago a
theological student was detailed to assist
a young lady, whom he had long ad
mired from afar, in making out a new
Sabbath school library catalogue.
The prospective minister found the
task by no means an unpleasant one, as
the charming, young creature read him
the title of each book from the title page
while he delightfully copied it into the
catalogue before him. In fact, there
flittered through the mind of the sedate
and rather bashful youth several times
the question whether the aforesaid
maiden, with her pretty figure and
bright eyes, could not be induced to be
come the "sharer of his labors and
toils."
"I believe I would ask her to-night, if
I only dared," thought the young man.
"But I don't dare, so there's the end of
it." And with gloomier face than before
he continued his work, calling out,
"Next book!" almost mechanically a3
fast as he had transcribed the former
title. He was aronsed from his reverie
by the following rejoiner to one of his
demands for "next book."
"Why don't you do it?"
He started as though the girl had been
reading his thoughts.
"Do what?" he inquired, by way of
drawing her out. But the young lady
replied not a word. To gain time he
again said:
"Next book?"
"No time like the present," said the
maiden with an encouraging smile.
"I see it is of no use to hide my
thoughts from you, Miss M.," he said,
struggling with his embarrassment.
"Your last two remarks have shown me
how perfectly you realize my state of
mind. I will therefore follow your ad
vice and embrace the present oppor
tunity of asking you whether you are
willing to accept me as your partner for
life. Your answer, I am confidant from
t iose remarks, will be affirmative."
It was the young lady's turn to be
embarrassed.
"To what remarks did yon refer?" she
said.
"To the two sentences in which you
so delicately blended words of advice
and encouragement on this most import
ant of subjects, when you said, 'Why
don't you do it,' and 'No time like the
present.' "
The girl looked puzzled for a moment,
and then burst into a merry laugh.
"Why, those were the titles of the books
you called for. Well, you have got
yourself into a pretty fix," and she
laughed at the discomfited student,
maliciously.
"Miss M.," said the young man,
springing up with sudden earnestness,
"I beg you will consider the words
which I cannot now recall. Be mine
and I shall be supremely happy. Refuse
me and you will make me miserable for
life. Will you be min?"
"Yes, yes, don't make such a noise
about it, or somebody will overhear
you."
Blow lour Horn.
My boy, blow your own horn. Rise
above the thing mistaken for honesty,
which defrauds the world of something
good. If you have a musical horn, blow
it. If yon don't, it may not be blown,
and the world will lose so much good
music.
But makeoretty sure that you have
something to say before you yell, "Mr.
Chairman !" You may get the floor and
make a fool of yourself. Don't blow your
horn for the mere purpose of making a
noise. Music is noise, but noise is not
necessarily mnsic.
Don't attract attention to yourself un
til you have something about you that
will" bear scrutiny. Don't flash your
paste pin before the eyes of a diamond
broker. If you have a gem it will do
very well to let him examine it.
Don't wear a "loud" necktie with a
dirty collar. The necktie will serve only
to attract attention to the collar.
Keep in the crowd until you have
something in your mind that will make
you shine cn the platform. Then don't
be afraid to step to the front.
Your, object should be to do the human
family good. If you think you possess
an idea that will help your fellows, stand
out where they can all hear it and yell it
to them.
Little men will say yon lack modesty.
Qreat men will say you are doing good.
If yon prefer the good opinion of great
men, blow your horn whenever you have
learned a new and righteous tuna.
Nobody expects a miser who hoards
bis money. Why should respect be paid
to the scholar who hoards his lore? And
what satisfaction can be derived from
cramming one's self with knowledge un
less it be for the purpose of disseminat
ing it among those who have it not?
It is by communion of ideas that the
world is caused to progress. If you
learn something that nobody else knows
you will retard the progress of the
world's erudition in proportion as you
Keep your secret.
I rejoice that it is the nature of most
men to be glad of opportunity to tell the
world something that it never knew be
fore. It is good proof of an excellent
unselfishness.
Dig for knowledge as you would for
gold, my boy, and when you get a nug-
fet of either, put it in circulation.

MIDDLE-AO ES MEN.
There are many at the age of thirty t. sixty who
are troubled witb too frequent evacuations of the
bladder, often accompanied by a slight smarting or
bu rnlng sensation and a weakening or the system in
a manner the patient cannot account for. On exam
ining the urinary deposits a ropy sediment will often
be found, and sometimes small particles of albumen
will appear, or tbe color will be of a thin milkish hue,
again changing to a dark and torp'd appearance.
There are many men who die of this difficulty, igno
rant of the cause, which is the second stage of Semi
nal Weakness. Dr. & will guarantee a perfect cure In
all such cases, and a healthy restoration of the genito
urinary organs.
