Tho Truo Statesman.
Tlic tnAn vlioc jiuroo lies within la's will
Kikihp tlint success conies not liy elianccbut
ckill:
Set tint tlio pits which ffirtiint! enn hestow
Mny lie tho mils or traps of friend or fool
Tiitoted tiy patience, u.iit" till he is sure
That uli.it lie means will make success secure,
And having chosen wh.it te him is best,
Trusts th.it his courage will nclucc the rot.
The timely jeiit which liafllcs wh.it it strikes,
Sculls nt the wisdom which a mob tlUIiltct,
Ailniitly turns a truth to an oHense,
Anil slyly mnkes n butt o( cuiiimun sonsc,
Succeeds, because tho licrson it assails,
Though ho bo honest, in discretion fulls.
The fact which makes tho most of little
things,
Tho wit which of ten mocks, but rarely stings)
The art which never satires needless pain,
Hut meets unguarded censure with disdain,
AVhieh rarely wills to volunteer a blow,
Which never lets men seo it shirks n foe,
'Which flirts no opiortutiity away,
Which can bo serious and which can be gays
Thu prudence which is never led to feel
Untimely earnestness or misplaced zeal;
Thu cautions jiolicy which gains its ends,
Hut never seeming to neglect its friends;
The skill which makes its party feel it must
Meet constant faithfulness with constant trust;
This is thu wisdom which, nt least in part,
U.iu statesman needs, ns parcel of his nrt,
If ho were only iblo to discern
What is tho lesson ho needs must team,
And having lennit it, wholly cast nsido
Thudieams which fn'cnds dcpluru and foes
deride;
Simla-off the dread which makes him stand
nghat
At tho poor phantoms of a ixiwcrlcss past,
Which, like thu shadows of thu dying day,
(Jrow vast and vaster as they fado away;
Could turn from dull logomachies to deeds,
Study a nation'i) dangers and its needs;
Could catch some, little knowledgo of tho nrt
Which, whilo it claims tho reason, chains tho
heart:
Kind what tho problem Is of social life,
Kirmivi! tho ceaseless impulses of strife;
Lend nil his powers to Justly arbitrate
lletueen tho honest interests of thu state;
Check thu crtidu Insolence of rank and wealth,
And civu tho people lioiie, contentment,
health
Soothed by tho iicus, I'd mutter, in my bed,
Cassandra Ureg may screech of "Hocks ahead."

They stood at tho altar; tho one at his tide
All blushing and trembling would soon be his
bride;
Kind friends gathered 'round them, tho young
and tho fair,
A priest In the robes of his office was there.
How holy, how solemn, tho vows to bo given,
An ongcl was waiting to bear them to heaven;
The priest bade bcr answer for weal or for
woe
In faltering accents tho answered him no.
She spoke, to her lover in tones fraught with
jiain
Your promiso is broken, to trust you is vain;
'When breathing your vows on this altar diviuo
Was wafted to me a strong odor of wine.
To-day wo were plighted; you promised me
then
Your honor j on never would tasto it again.
All vainly they pleaded, she still answered no;
Wedding a tippler briugs misery and woo.
Yuu may lay nil tho wialth of worlds at my
fcit,
And ml: untold pleasures my joy to compute;
Hring earth's rarest jewels encircling my brow,
All fail in u balance with one broken vow.

And thouraudt of orphan lepcat their sad

Oh mini sad destroyer, thy withering breath
Kills our lieautiful world with shadows of

A BACHELbR,SDiNNER.
"Aleck," Ud Mrs. Iln-tlng-?, with u
troubled look on licr f.iee, "do you
think you could get your own dinner
to-day? Uildfjet lias koiio to spend
the day with her hick cousin, while
Nelllo mid I nro obliged to go down to
Mr.. .Soiumer'."', ns It Is her livt day tit
Ueakgrove. It Is a long drive, und we
ahull not bo homo until evening. I
don't like to leave tho houo entirely
alone, or 1 would rather you would
dine nt the restaurant.
"Don't worry, mother," ho s.ilil,
gilly, "I prefer getting my own din
ner, and I fancy I can do It in such u
manner as would make Bridget bltiili
for hor calling. I'll manage, never
fear. Why it Is Just tho easiest thing
in tho world. All you have to do Is to
consult a reelpo book, and work by
rule."
With n doubtful smile, Mr. Hast
ings left tho room, and It was not long
ere ho heard them drlvo away.
"Alone, am IV" he t-oliloriulsed.
"I supposo I might as well comiienee,
then. What o'clock? Well, allowing
for my inexperlonce, 1 mn have It all
1.. I... 1.1 nl..l...l. T.,i ..ni-t,itr "
IVUUy LJ I- ll"Cl ' vv........
Rummaging tho pantry, hn found
tho iccipo book, and It was at lea-1
half an hour beforo ho could make up
his mlud what to have,
"I'll Imvo warm hi ult for one thing;
cuess I'll make them Art;" and,
"Flour," ho said, reading from tho
book. "Thero it Is. Clotting rather
low, I guess," ho muttered, ns his
head disappeared In tho barrel. When
It emerged he looked as though twenty
years had been added to his life.
"Saleratus," ho added scanning the
book "What Is that? 'ltmuit bo that
whitu f-tuirin the bottle. 1 will put In
a double doo of It so us to have them
extra light; for Urldgot's biscuits are
always h trlllo too heavy."
They were soon ready and placed In
' to the oven.
"I'll get everything ready first, nnd
then build such a 11 ro as will cook it In
a short time," priding himself on his
forethought. "What next."
At this momont it little lwy appeared
at the kitchen door. "Hero is a Ibh
that was ordered ycriterday," said the
grinning urchin.
"Is It fresh?" nsked Aleck.
"Yes, caught this morning," replied
the boy, running oil.
i "This Is an unexpected nddltlon,"
he murmured. "I'll fry It," and dash
' Ing water upon it, ho placed it in u
I pan with a liugo lump of butter, and
I put It on tho stove! "That is ready.
i 'mt' T aittiitnart T mitut hiti'it n ttiiili 1 1 tirv
of 80ino kind. Hero is one rlco pud
ding. That looks easy, and I remem
ber now that I upset u paper of rlco
while searching for the saleratus. Two
cups of rlco," he read slowly. "Hut
where is tiio uso in measuring; there
is not much more tlinn that in the
paper; I'll put It right In," and suiting
the action to tho word, ho soon con
coted a peculiar looking mixture, un
der tho head of "rlco pudding." "I
don't care for a variety to-day," he
remarked, and proceeded to build a
fire. "Now," ho exclaimed, "I'll ar
range tho tablo for dinner."
Ho was Just instituting a vigorous
search for tho tablecloth which ho was
startled by n ring nt tho door-bell.
Forgetting his appearance he opened
the door and encountered n young
lady whoso bluo eyes wcro sparkling
with mirth.
Entering unceremoniously, she said,
"I am Mary Carroll, and lmvo come to
make Nellie Hastings n visit, and
thought I would surprlso her. Are
you not her brother Aleck?" she
asked, and finding It iniotslbte to con
trol hor mirth, she. burst into a ringing
laugh, in which Aleck was forced to
Join, for ho had caught a gllmpso of
himself In tho Iooklngglass as ho
ushered her Into tho family sitting
room. Tho sheet, extending from his
neck to tho tips of his boots; his vener
able looking head; all was enough to
excite laughter, and, having recovered
from his sudden surprlso, he soon in
formed her of tho whole stato or ntr.iirs.
"I will assist you," sho said, still
laughing. "I will arrango tho tablo
whllo you look after tho dinner and
make yourself preventable."
Aleck, after laying asldo the sheet,
and brushing the Hour from his hair,
went out lo seo how his dinner was
progressing. An unavory odor as
sailed him as ho entered tho room
"What does this mean?" lie exclaimed,
und May, who had followed him to
iiM'ortitlu tho whereabouts of some
needed article, stood gazing on tho
M-eiie.
Tho Move win covered with a curiou
mixture, which ho at once rcognled
as his pudding; the IMi was burned to
a crisp.
Making a drive for tho kettle, he
hucceeded in grasping it, but, dropping
it as Middenly, It rolled on tho tloor,
1 whilo ho executed a war danco nround
It occasioned by tho pain in his hand.
Iteturnlng to tho sitting-room, May
proceeded to dress tho injured hand,
anil .succeeded In allaying tho pain.
"1 have Mime blscuts In tho oven,"
he Mild. "I think they must be done
by thin time."
"Lie down on the sofa, and I will
co about them," ho mid. Sho foon
returned, bearing on u plate .-omothlng
that roicmliltd lump of putty. Ureal;
lug one of them open and tasting it,
he made it wry face. "You forgot to
put the -aler.itu.s In, dld'nt you?"
"No," ho -aid, "I put lots in nearly
half of the bottle."

"It Is ere mi tartar," tho replied,

and disappearing, sho .soon returned,
bringing sundry dishes of cold edi
bles. "I tho thh entirely spoiled?" asked
Aleck.
"I think It is. Was It alive when
you put it in the pan? I tee tho scales
were not moved."
"Da rice-puddings always boil over?"
he asked, e ailing an answer.
"They never do If tho rJco has been

of Aleck's dinner.

It Is gratifying and encouraging to
know of the interest our lady readers
,'tako In the Homo Circle. This Interest
, Is noparcnt in tho frequent contribu
tions lo Its columns of matter that Is
I really Interesting. Whatever Is writ
I ton by our friends, acquaintances, or
! neighbors, is always rcatl with satisfac
tion, more so than If it came from thu
pen of n stranger. In looking over tho
many agricultural exchanges that como
to our table, wo frequently compare
tho woman's department In these Jour
nals with our own, nnd we are free to
say that tho contributions to tho Wn.

printed east of tho Hocky Mountain".
The FAitMini has no tiso for a waste
basket. Occasionally pieces come to us
that possess merit, but tho length pre
vents their uo. Now that the burden
ami heat of harvest Is over, wo hope
that our lady friends nro having a little
rest und leisure, and that they will
find tlmo to discuss, In tho HomoClr
clo, whatever most Interests the indi
vidual, and tho Interest will bo mu

said to bo Increased as follows: As
soon as tho first flower Is cut or begins
to wither, pull the stalk down through
tho open sheath clear to tho bottom.
At tho bottom will bo found, .standing
close to the stalk, another bud, enclosed
In a delicate covering; cut the old stalk
away as closoasiosslble, without Injur
ing the bud, and If It bus not been kept
back too long It will grow up quickly.
An English contemporary, The Gar-
den, In relation to tho colcus, speaking of
tho old sorts, says, thoy would seem al
most to have nad their day, consider
ing tho now nnd attractive kinds which
have been raised from time to time, nnd
adds: ".Mr. Hull has now, In his
nursery, several entirely distinct spe
cies, which, will, when crossed with
other kinds, no doubt, bo tho menns of
bringing out an entirely now and dis
tinct raco of these useful and easily
cultivated plants.
Tjjo.sk Hl'i.iis. We find requests for
bulbs coming In so fast that wo are
afraid they won't "go nround," so wo
will only send as many as will weigh
twelve cents' ootago, and will return
thu remaining stamps with tho bulbs,
If thero should be more than that
amount sent. Wo did not mark tho
bulbs when taken up, for wo had not
then thought of vending them to our
friends, hut we will endeavor to send a
variety by guessing. We had twenty
varieties of tulips, but, attempting to
take them up, wo found that mhiio
busy Httlo gophers had laKon them,

Take an ogid mother seveuty yeais of age,
and sho is almost omnipotent in comfort. Why?
She has been through it all. At seven o'clock
in tho morning she goes over to comfort a young
mother who has just lent her balie. (hand
mother knows all about that trouble. Fifty
years ago sho felt it. At Ii! o'clock that day
she goes over to comfort a widowed soul. She
knows all alniut that. Sho has bcctl walking
in that dark alley twenty years. At four
o'clock In thu afternoon some ono knocks at
tho door wanting bread, She knows all about
that. Two or three times In her life sho came
to her last loaf. At 10 o'clock that night she
goes over to sit up with some ono soverely sick,
Sho knows all about it. Sho knows all about
favers and pleurisies and broken bones, She
has been doctoring all her lifo spreading plus
tors and pouring out littlo drops, and shaking
up hot pillows, and contriving things to tempt
h Kor appetite. Drs. Ahcrncthy and Itush
ami Hosack and Harvey wcro great doctors;
but tho greatest doctor tho world ccr saw is
an aged woman. Dear me! do wo not remem
ber her about the room w lieu wo were sick in
our boyhood! Was thero any ono who could
ever su touch a sore without hurting it? And
when she lifted her sjiectaclcs against her
wrinkled forehead, ro sho could look close at
tho wound, it was three-fourths healed.

And plucked tho border leaf bv leaf:

Tun l'Ai'i'.n I)i. mi:. It was collec
tion day, and Will had forgotten his
contribution. There was the good
superintendent with the hat In his
hand, coming strait to their class, mid
he hadn't a penny in Ills pocket.
"Here, tnko this," said Tom Ulder,
thrusting into Ills hand what .seemed to
be a silver dime.
Will was very grateful o grate
ful that ho did not see tho kno'vlug
look in Tom Hitler's eyes.
"It's real clever of Tom," he said to
himself, as he dropped the supposed
money into the hat. "I'll take a dime
to M'hool to-morrow and return It to
him."
Afler school, however, Tom il.Ink
Ing it too good a Joke to keep, told him
that he was "sold," that what seemed
to be a dime, was nothing but a round
bit of paste-board, such us hunters us-o
In loading guns. Will was Indignant;
but thu echo of his teacher's voice was
still In his heart, mid putting his hands
behind him, ho hurried uwa without
a word.
Not long after, tho superintendent
was surpnsd to seo 'Will walk in
to tho room and lay n silver dime upon
tho dusk.
"I wan nfrald you'd think you lind
some mighty mean boy In scbool," ho
said, us ho made tho explanation, but
ho did not tell who tho "mean boy"
was.
"CJod bless you for your honesty,"
said tho Huporlutondutit, when Will
had finished. And tho next Sunday,
nt tho close of tho usual exercises, ho
told tho school tho story of thu paper
dime. It seemed a trilling thing, ho
said; but tho boy who would cheat in
such n way, would bo very llkoly, by
and by, to commit larger und more
serious fraud, whilo ho who was honest
In such a small matter would surely
