100 MUCH STYLE.
Love had iU birth in a cottage.
But Boon began putting on airs,
For he said the old house was homely,
And needed too many repairs,
The ceilings were low, and the par'ors
Unsuited to stylish display, ,
So Love with his youthful partner
Deter reined to move away.
Love purchased a modern dwelling,
Where everything was en suite,
A very palatial mansion
In a very palatial street;
And out of their rural cottage
Did Love and his better half
Depart, with no pann of sorrow.
To worship the golden calf.
She went to wedding receptions,
To parties, concerts and balls,
And the rest of her time devoted
To shopping and making cal's; .
Was band-in hand with old Plutus,
Who tried his best, I'll engage,
To make this couple imagine
They lived in the Golden Age.
He had his clubs and his dinners,
Where ladies were not received,
And among the breakers and brokers
Was oft of his cash relieved;
And Love, that by manv a token
Its tender regard displays,
Was taught to be civil-spoken
And free from ola -fashioned ways.
Their children were watched by nurses,
And kept in such regal pomp,
There wasn't a chance for a frolic,
No, never a chance for a romp;
And the prattle of youthful voices,
And the clinging of baby arms,'
For these very stylish parents
Had no very special charms.
And Love who is never formal
On being left in the lurch.
For a cherry and rosy corner i
One morning began a search;
There were damask and satin curtains,
Velvet and plush around, I
And over the stately mansion ;
Elegant things were found.
Mirrors that came from Venice, j ,
Clear a? Jtaliau skies,
Rugs in their depths concea'ing j
Turkish and Tyrean dyes; j
Treasures from loom and quarry, i
Glinting with many a spark, j
Like flashes of lighting playing
Like eliin sprites in the dark.
But never a cozy corner
Wbere Love could make sweet delay,
Forgetting the losses and the crosses
And -troublesome cares of the day;- j
And back to his native dwelling
Went Love and he sighed the while,
And said.- "There isn't a place for me
In a house where there's too much style.'
In his Own Coin.
"Is this seat engaged?" he asked of
the prettiest girl in the car, and, finding
that it wasn't, he put bis sample box in
the rack and braced himself for solid en
joyment. "Pleasant day"' said the girl, coming
for him before he could get his tongue
unkinked. "Most bewildering day,
isn't it?"
"Ye yes," stammered the drummer.
He wasn't in the habit of playing pitcher
in this kind of match, and 'the position
of catcher didn't fit him as tightly as his
pantaloons.
"Nice weather for traveling," con
tinued the girl; "muoh nicer than when
it was cold. Are you perfectly com
fortable?" "Oh, yes, thnaks!" murmured the
drummer. t
"Glad of it," resumed the girl, cheer
fully. "You don't look so. Let ma put
my shawl under your head, won't you?
"Ualn't Tnn -rafliaf. eit nnvt Via -will.
dow, and let me describe the landscape
to yn?"
"No, please," he muttered; 'I I'm
doing well enough.'
' "Can't I buy you some peanuts, or a
book? Let me do something to make tne
trip , happy! Suppose I slip my arm
around your waist! : Just lean forward a
trifle so lean!"
"You'll have" to excuse me!" gasped
the wretched drummer. "I I don't
think you really mean it!" :
"You look so tired," she pleaded,
. t . 1 i a -i:i l . "i j
- l i i(i,iti i .iiii iiitu ill run r I',,,, w uu i , i i
my shoulder? No one will notice. Just
lay yon r head right down and I'll tell
you stories."
"No no, thanks! I won't to-day! I'm
very comfortable, thank you!" and the
poor drummer looked helpless.
"Your scarf-pin is coming out. Let
. me fix it. There!" and she arrayed it
deftly. "At the next Btation I'll get you
ft cup of tea, and when we arrive at pur
destination you 11 let me call on you?
and she smiled an anxious prayer right
np into his pallid countenance.
"I think I'll go away and smoke," said
the drummer, and hauling down his
gripsack, he made for the door, knee
' deep in the grins showered upon him by
his fellow passengers.
"Strange!" murmured the girl to the
lady in front of her, "I only did with
him jnst what he was making ready to
do with me, and, big and strong as he is,
he conldn'f stand it. I really think
women have stronger stomachs than
men, and, besides that, there isn't any
smoking car for them to fly to for ref nge.
I don't understand this thing."
But she settled back contentedly all
the same; and at a convention of drum
mers held in the nmoker that morning.it
was unanimously resolved that her seat
was engaged, so far as they were con
cerned, for the balance of the season.

Naturally Literary.
Janet Hamilton lived in the town of
Coatbridge in Lanarkshire, if I am not
mistaken. I should like to tell you what
can bo done by one to whom God has
given a great love of books. J anet Ham
iJton was the daughter of a shoemaker,
who employed one journeyman, and, as
might be reasonably supposed, she be
came the wife of that journeyman
(laughter) at a very early age, earlier
than I should recommend in similar
cases. However, during her life she had
a family of ten children, most of whom,
I believe, grew up to manhood and wo
manhood (hear, hear). But she never
went to school, and her mother, who
was the shoemaker's wife, who taught
her to read, did not learn to read till she
was 50 ; she becamu blind at 60, and she
lived. I think, until she was 75 or 76.
As for the points of her life, she never
saw a mountain, she never saw any river
but the river Clyde, and she was never
twenty miles away from her own humble
dwelling. She read in childhood, at five
or six years f of age, Bible stories, little
stories that her mother procured for her,
and at eight years of age she found, by
accident, on the beam of a weaver's loom
in her neighborhood, two volumes, one
was "Paradise Lost," and the other was
Allan Ramsay's poems. She read with
extraordinary eagerness, and did not for
get what she read, as some of us are apt
to do. r
She read through the Tillage library,
history,:biography, travels, and when
jhe got to Shakespeare, Shakespeare was
like a revelation to her, Cheers. J She
lind no words in which she could ex
press her admiration for his writings,
and she said that in those days it was not
considered a very good thing for serious
people to read Shakespeare, f Laughter. J
There was a hole in the wall in her
house near the chair on which she
nursed her children, and where she
worked at some kind of tambour frame;
and when people came in she put the
Shakespeare into the hole in tlie wall so
that it might not be seen, and her con
duct critizised. She said - that in her
childhood her mother had led her every
morning after she could read, to read a
chapter in the bible, which was done
without intermission till she left her
home and had a home of her own. Her
love of books was her ruling passion, not
withstanding the character of her child
hood and the work she had to do.- So
far as I j know, nothing was neglected,
but she suffered from sitting up to read
till 2 o'clock in the morning, for she be
lieved that it had the effect of very much
injuring and at last depriving her of her
sight.
Somebody asked her how, having
never been to school, she wrote so ac'
curately not only in a newspaper, but
she wrote also for one of Uasseli a pub
lications when 54 years of age, and it is
almost impossible now to read ner writ
ing, the letters are so curiously formed;
but she was asked how she came to write
so grammatically, and she replied: "You
may as well ask why the lark can sing,
God had given her not. as Sir David
Dundas said, "a great love of books,'
but a natural gift of grammar. Laugh
ter. This old lady has written poems,
of which, if there were time, I would
have quoted two or three, but certainly
there are some of them which, if placed
anions the Doems of Burns in a volume
of his, no one would for a moment doubt
they were the production of the greatest
of all the ocotcn poets. roni John
Bright p Birmingham speech.
Brother Gardner' Latent Observations.
The president ordered thirteen win
dows : to be raised, the ice in the water-
pail to be renewed, and all the dogs
turned out of the room, and then said:
"When you cum across a man who has
no vices or weaknesses, drap him as you
would a hot 'tater. De Lawd intended
man to be mo' or less weak, wicked, an'
wretched. It was not de ideah to turn
out a perfect man. If it had been we
should! have had neither religion preach
ers nor de Bible. Airth would have
bin Heaben, an' dar would have bin no
call.
"Natur' sometimes turns out a pusson
widoun cruue.iust as she turns out one-
eyed colts and three-legged calves.
Such pussons soon become known
as either fools or lunatics. It
am
agin natur's way to bring men
into dis world wid an angel's wings al
ready half grown. An' it am a leetle
suspicious to find a too good man. When
you diskiver a human bein who isn't
lame $omewhar who never deceives,
cheatsj lies, envies, covets who goes
about satisfied wid de weather, craps, an
himself who won t bet, drink, go to de
circus, or look upon a h083 race, you
have f pun a man to be let alone. He

"I like a man who has weaknesses an'
sins. Den I know he am a feller-mortal
who was put on airth to be saved. I like
a man who has has sickness, heartaches,
an' grievous trouble. Den I am sartin

Sol a Flattering Exhibit.
It is sometimes difficult not to ques
tion the reality of modern progress, and
to ask whether it is not in the main a
sham. Take a little illustration which
Las just come under notice: Herbert
Spencer, in carrying out his elaborate
system of phylosophy, gathered together
a i vast mass of sociological observations
and phenomena, which he caused to be
arranged systematically in the most con
venient order for reference, and which
he published in eight folio parts, at a
very moderate price. Yet, though there
is abundance of talk about social science
in; these days, and though Herbert Spen
cer's "Descriptive Sciology" contained
the most necessary and invaluable infor-
mation appertaining to that branch of
human knowledge, it was found impos
sible to sell the book in sufficient num
bers to avoid loss. In this country, in
fact, the sale was so restricted that
after the third number, the Ap
pletons refused to reproduce them.
On this one work Mr. Spen
oer has incurred ' a positive
loss of sixte3n thousand dollars, for he
had to publish it at his own expense.
Now when we reflect that groat fortnnes
are made by the publication of flash
Eapers, dime novels, the most abomina
le literary trash, and that the New York
Weekly, a vehicle of kitchen romance,
has a larger circulation than any journal
in the United States, it is impossible to
retain the conviction that the progress of
the age is as rapid as is commonly pre
tended. And such facts as we have cited
are trustworthy evidence of the actnal
nature of the intellectual situation. The
literature people buy to suit themselves,
not to satisfy a mere fashion. The New
York Weekly ancf the dime novels, and
the flash paper show the intellectual
level of the majority, and assuredly it is
very little in advance of that of a cen
tury ago. . - -"
Some of the English society papers
have at last found cause for a grievance
against the Prince of Wales. It is al
leged that on a recent occasion in the
House of Lords, the Prince, desiring to
vote on the measure before the House,
applied his personal cloture to the de
bate, suggesting rather peremptorily,
that the division b taken without
farther argument, as he watted to go
hbme. Anybody who has listened to the
dreary debates in the . House of Lards
will sustain the Prince, no matter what
the society papers say.

donlng all holies, for it will cost you nothing. I iriv
no encouragement nnless there is a fair prspe-t of
making a cure. I will endeavor to be candkl in my
opinion and reasonable in my chargi s- I claim not to
cure everybody, but to cure all that can be cured. 1
have had twenty years' successful practice In the
treatment oi notn acute ana ciironic uisease.t. i nave
located In Portland, and all I ask is that you give me a
fair, unbiased trial, by which 1 hope to merit your con
fidence, and give entire satisfaction ) all suuVriiig
humanity. My reputation has been acquired by being
candid with my patients, through j ears of successful
practice, ootn in f.urono ami in mis country, anu
studiously keeping up wiih the age. I know the cause
and remedy needed, not by guesswork, but by year
of experience.
In my treatment of many diseases T make use of a
new method of cure. The treatment is simple and the
most feasible of all- There Is no unpleasant sensation
whatever attending the treatment. 1 Invite all persons
afflicted to visit ami freely convince themselves, leav
ing me to verify the assertion that there has never
existed a remedy so startling and immediate in I us
effects. 1 hese noted curative a'ds, as handled in my
practice, are endor ed and approved by the faeuliies
of both Kurope and America. The beneficial effects
are perceptible ainiostfrotn the start. Cases regarded
incurable, and of years standing, yield to its mild but
wonderful inilueiice. And in no case can the treat
ment be attended w.tli the least danger, thereby tes
tif ing it to be the most harmless agent in therapeu
tics. Those who wish to apply for advice or treatment
may confidently do so wit hout hesitation or diffidence,
as the most timid may rely on that inviolable sccrecy
whirli has already proved the basis of an extensive
professional reputation abroad.
Cases can be treated by coriespendence when a per
sonal Interview is impossible, providing the patients
will minutely detail all of their bodily inflrmaties and
mental disturbances written In a simple and natural
stj'le, anil In accordance witli the necessary derails of
their own feelings. Oi.e personal interview, however.
e'eivvith patterns residing at a di-tance is highly de
sirable when practicable, and will more than repay
the patient the expense and trouble of, a trip to Port
land. The advantage of even a visit are apparent and
manifold. A single visit in most cases will enable the
doctor to formntiaccuralenpWionand notepartleulars
which might be lost sight of in mere correspondence,
particularly when a microscopic and chemical analy
sis is absolutely necessary. Patients not resid

through the mads or by express can have the neces
