FRIDAY JUXE 2, 1876. WHO ABE THE POOR ? Who are the poor? Not always those Who have the least to show; Nor are they always found among The darkest haunts of woe; For one may wear the richest dress And roll In wealth's galore. And still In reason's perfect sight Be poor, aye, very poor. The brightest skies may ever shine Above the mansion proud, And he who dwells within its walls With want may ne'er be bowed; The sweetest music ever heard May reed his listening ear, And mirth and pleasure fill the cup Of all the gladsome year. Yet poor Indeed must be the man Who owns such Joys as these. If e'er his heart be coldly closed To others' miseries. And vain Is all his store of gold, If selfishly he lives, And, always reaping harvests new, No charity e'er gives. Real poverty Is In the heart; Tls want of love tor man; Tis failure to perform a good, To bless whene'er you can; Tls lack of love and lack of faith In Right and Its decree. That -the greatest virtue one can own Is loving charity. So let us, then, do all we can To help each other on, And show that wealth of mind and heart Which lives when gold is gone; And let us keep this truth in view Where'er our steps may lead: A man may be a millionaire And yet be poor indeed. An Occasional Friend. Mr. and Mrs. Oliver (J. .Burton, as tbelr wedding cards bad announced the young couple a year before, were seated at tbe breakfast-table with an undenia ble expression of discomfort upon both faces. Oliver himself, a fine-looking man of about tweuty-four, looked out of temper. Amy, his pretty blonde wife, looked harassed and unhappy, but not cross. "I wish I could please you, Oily," she said, with a piteous droop in tbe corner of her moutb. "I do try, and if you would only give mean hour of warning, perhaps " "An hour of warning !" broke in OH ver, in a petulant tone; "that's just like a woman. Mow can 1 tell wnen am going to meet a friend I should like to invite to amner lesterciay, lor in stauce, I -met Xed Hay ward quite unex- pectediy in tbe car, and he's only in town a few days. Of course, I asked him to dinner, and found pork and beans." "But you like pork and beans." "But you should always provide some- tbing else. JNed detests them." "But if Mr. Hayward had not come, tbo something else would have been wasted, as we all like pork and beans." "I cannot understand why it is I al ways find some mortifying deficiency whenever 1 bring any one Here to dine. Last week John Hall found nothing but mutton cuops and potatoes." "It was washing day. You see, Oily, we really cannot anord to have a com panv dinner every day, and " "There! there! always the old Story, "We seem to afford other things very well. I don't mind the cost. I never stint you in house-keeping funds." "No, Oily; and if you really do not mind tbe cost, I might " "Manage it any way you like, but do let me find a decent meal when I bring home an occasional friend. There, kiss and be friends." Amy was willing enough to put up her pretty lips for a kiss; but after her lord and master bad lelt tue House, sue carried a perplexed face for a long time. She did want her husband's home to be the most perfect spot on earth in his own eyes, and faithfully tried to make it so. iiut tbe little wire bad been brought up in a family where a limited income ruled all expenditures, and she knew well that her husband's salary re quired careful management to keep tbem out ot debt. JJeui was ber horror while Oliver thought but little of a bill here and there, having, as yet, had none large enough to be an annoyance. Amy had proved herself a treasure in bouse-keeplng neat, orderly, and econ omical and ber husband was justly proud of his wife and his home. But his reckless hospitality was a sore thorn in Amy's side. She was glad to see his gentlemen friends, when she knew they were coming to vist her, and she took an innocent pride in spreading before them her choicest cooking and daintiest dishes. But she seldom knew they were coming till Oliver put his head in her chamber door, or tbe kitchen, to tell ber Tom, Mick, or .Harry, bad come horn with him to dinner, and they were in hurry. And it did seem to poor Amy as if an evil fate possessed Oliver to select tbe very worst days for such visitations, The meal that on a busy day Oliver would have eaten with a keeu relish looked poor when be saw his fastidious friend, who boarded at the hotel partaking of it. And yet, as Amy said bis salary drd not warrant a company dinner for every day. Then there were washing days, when something must be cooked that could be quickly served: Ironing days, when. they were alone, Oliver declared pork and Deans a dinner bt for a King; tbere were days when yesterday's big ioint o meat must be eaten cold, warmed up, or wasted; days wben the range would not bake well, and the dinner In prospect nad to oe aoanuoned, and a hurried meal prepared on the top of the fire; In short days that all house-keepers know by ex perience are the very last ones when they want to see strange faces at their tables, let, if Amy was all ready on six days, aud all in confusion on the seventh, it was surely on that verv sev enth day that Oliver had a friend unex- pectediy to dinner. It was of no use to tell him in th morning; the sight of an old comrade1 face drove the warning completely ou of his mind. So, on tbe morning whereof I haveal ready written, Amy went about ber daily duties with a heavy heart and troubled face. But tbe postman left ber a letter, alter reading wbicu sue sua denly cleared up wonderfully, and seemed Immensely relieved. "I'll try it," she said. "Perhaps Oil ver win realize men wuat it costs." But no word of her mysterious resolu tlon passed her lins when ber husband came home, nor did she allude to her letter. 'Ihere was no stransrer at her ta ble for three or four days, but 6he waited patiently, knowing Oliver would soon find n friend for her to make her first experiment in her newplau. She was always very careful about the annoin mentsof her table, trusting nothing to the servant in that department, & she was not airaid ot any guest nndinir tii order or neglect there; but Oliver's idea of guest dishes had been a sore trouble to her. "Amy," he called, about a week after tbe important conversation recorded, "Will Ferris has come home with me. Now don't tell me we have nothing fit to set before him." "Can you give me half an hour?" Amy asked, cheerfully. "Yes no more. We are going to 'the lodge together." "I'll be ready." Oliver beamed with satisfaction, as he motioned his guest to a seat at tbe table. A small turkey, browned to perfection, was the leading dish; various vegetables, dainty selection of sauces and pickles. and a most, delightful pie, finished the repast. "IKuewAmycould do it lfshe tried." thought Oliver; "and now that she fiuds I am In earnest, sbe win manage to give my friends a decent meal, if they are not heralded twenty-four hours in ad vance." Not a week later, another friend was invited on the spur of the moment, ar riving when the dinner was actually served. But Amy asked for only a few minutes, and magically there was served an exquisite repast, perfectly cooked. Again and again Oil ver came home with friend, and a delightful certainty of a good dinner. Amy Burton never com plained now of his hospitality, crave bis friends a smiling welcome, and Oliver iounu nome more cnarming than ever. Two months passed, and the occa sional friend came verv often to dinner. The slight restraint Oliver had felt was quite removed by the new and delight ful change in Amy's management: and yet the variety and quality of the com- panydisnes never tailed. uutMrs.iiur ton, consulting her account book, un derstood that the time was rapidly ap- proocning wnen unver must understand how this magic machinery was kept in order; must see where tbe mysterious delicacies that appeared so promptly were procured. So, one evening, wben husband and wife were enjoying a quiet tete-a-tete, tbe servant handed in an envelope di rected to Mr. Burton, saying : The boy will call in the morning." "Boyle!" said Oliver, reading the printed advertisement in the corner of the envelope; "why, it Is the restauraut Keeper around tbe corner." "les," said Amy. "But I never owed the man a cent, and here is a bill," cried Oliver, opening tbe folded paper in tbe envelope. "I think you will find it all right," Amy said, very calmly, though a red sport burned in each cheek as sbe spoke. "All rigbt !" said tbe amazed Oliver; the man must be crazy. One turkey and dressing, five dollars; one lemon pie, seventy-hve cents; cranberry sauce- sweet potatoes, and parsnip fritters, three dollars." 'That was the day Mr. Ferris dined here," said Amy, without lookiug up. "One pair ot roast ducks, hve dol lars," read Oliver; "currant jelly, one dollar." That was tbe day Mr. Hill dined here." Oliver gave a long whistle. "So that's the way you did it?" "Yes, dear." "Hum! quail, grouse, chickens." "You did not suppose I procured and cooked sucb tilings at a minute's notice, did you " as Amy, demurely. ViNo but " "You didn't suppose thev came down the chimney ready cooked, like Santa Claus' gifts, did you?" she asked, still looKing intently at ber sewing. well, not exactly that, but" "You told me I was not to mind the expense." "les; but What is the expense?' turning over the paper. "By Jove! itis one nundred and twenty-live dollars." i es, that is right. I kept an account of the items." Tbere was a long silence. Oliver was trying to persuade himself that it was impossible his habit of promiscuous bos pitallty was really so expensive; but tbe items stared mm in the face, and a very slight effort of memory recalled nearly every dish. Jones had complimented tbe lobster salad; Smith bad been en tbusiastic over tbe mayonnaise of fowl Hayward bad pronounced this paii equal to Delmonieo's: aud Curtis had protested he never ate such pigeon pie Deiore. With a deep sigh. Oliver said : "Since it is all right. I suppose I must pay It; but was It quite fair, Amy, to spring such a mine on me? I did not realize the expense, it is true; but thi bin, coming in so unexpectedly, will reany namper me terribly." "AO, it won't, Oily. I only wanted you to understand how expensive and trouDicsome it is to uave unexpected company. Only let me know, and I will gladly prepare for your friends, at oniy a small additional expense." "JBUt tuey won't pay this bill." "No, but this will." And Amy laid neiore ner Husband three crisp Ufty-dol lar mils. Why, Amy ! Where did that come from ? You have heard me speak of Uncle inanes, tne captain m the navy, wh was away at tne time we were mar ried ?" "But who came home a month or two ago, you told me?" "Yes: but I did not tell vou that In th letter he wrote telling me he was at father's he sent me a check for two hun dred dollars to purchase a nice wedding present." "And you have spent more than half in tunseys and geese for my friends." "I don't repent it, Oily, for it has given you pleasure to entertain them but we cannot aflord to keen it un. '. don't want to be unreasonable: but vou see now, do you not, that the habit is Detter DroKen V" "Yes, I do see it. You have brought It home to me now, Amy, and I will not vex tue dearest little wife In the world again by adding unexpected company to her household cares." So Amy lost her grievance, for Oliver gave uer due notice from that time for ward when he meant to invite a truest True, it was a strong temptation, "when be met his friends, to run the risk and taKe tnem nome, but tbe vision o Boyle's bill, and Amy's sacrifice of he uncle's wedding present, rose before his eyes, anu ne gave tbe invitation for an other day, or let It pass. For. after all he found, when tbe appointed day came he cared very little for tbe expected pleasure, and would have enloved a quiet dinner and evening with Amy quite as wen as tne company or an oc casional inend. Jbaays Almanac wait. wait, uusoand, before you wonder audibly why your wife doesn't get along with the household affairs "as your mother did." She is doing her best and no woman can endure to have that best slighted. Bemember the loner. weary nights that she sat up with that oaoe tnat died ; remember tbe love and care that sbe bestowed upon you wbe you had that long spell of sickness. Do you think that she is made of cast iron Wait wait in silence and forbearance and the light will come back to her eyes, tbe light of the old days. Wait, wife, before you speak reproach fully to your husband when he comes home late, weary and "out of sorts, He has worked hard all day, perhaps tar into tne nignt; ne nas wrestled band in baud with care and selfishness and greed, and all the demons that follow 1 tbe train of money-making.
