TWENTY YEARS AGO.
llow wondrous are the changes, Jim,
Since twenty.years ago,
When gals'wore woolen dresses, Jim,
And boys wore pants of tow ;
When shoes were made of oalf-skin,
And socks of homespun wool,
And children did a half-day’s woidc
Before the hour of school.
The gixlc todk music lessons, Jim,
Upon the spinning wheel.
And practiced late and early, Jim,
On tho spindle swift and.red!,
The boys would ride barebacked to mill,
A dosen miles or so.
And hurry off before ’twas d%y,
Some twenty years ago.
The people rode to meeting, Jim,
In sleds instead of sleighs:;
And wagons rode as easy. Jim,
As buggies now a-days ;
And oxen answered well for teams.
Though now they’d he too slaw.;
For people lived not half so fast
Some twenty years ago.
O, Well do I remember, Jhn,
That Wilson’s patent stove,
That father bought and ipaid for Jim,
In cloth the gals had wove ;
And how the neigbors wondered
When we got the thing to go !
They said 'twould burst and kill us all,
Some twenty years ago.
The RunreeTler and the Devil.
Legendary lone there is that tella of men
who sold themsetoes 4* the devil in order
to secure some life ambition. Such a story
is now floating in newspaperdom of a rum
seller proposing a co-partnership with his
Satanic Majesty. It is of the tenor fol
lowing :
“Dear Sir:—I have opened apartments
fitted up with all the enticements of luxury
for the sale of rum, brandy, gin, wine,
beer and all their compounds. Our object
though different, can be host attained by
united action. I, therefore, propose a co
partnership. All I want of men is their
money. All else shall be yours.
Bring the industrious, the sober, the
respectable, and I will return them to you
drunkards, paupers and beggars.
Bring me the child, and I will dash to
earth the dearest hopes of father and
mother.
Bring me the father and mother, and I
will plant discord between them, and make
them a curse and reproach to their chil
dren.
Bring me the young man and I will
ruin bis character, destroy his health,
shorten his life, and blot out the purest
and highest hopes of youth.
Bring mo the mechanic or the laborer,
and his own money—the hard-earned
fruits of his toils—shall be made paint
poverty, vice and ignorance in his once
happy home.
Bring me the warm-hearted sailor, and
I will send him on a Ice shore, and make
shipwreck of all fond hearts forevermore.
Bring me the professed follower of Christ,
and I will blight and wither every devo
tional feeling of his heart. I will corrupt
the ministers of religion, and defile the
purity of the church.
Bring me the patronage of the city and
of the courts of justice—let the magis
trates of the State and of the Union be
come my patrons-—let the law-makers
themselves meet at my table and partici
pate in violations of law, and in the name
of law they shall become a hissing and a
by-word in the streets.
Bring me, above all, the moral, respec
table man. If possible bring me the mod
erate temperance man, though he may not
drink, yet his presence will countenance
the pretext under which our business
must be masked. Bring him to our store,
oyster saloons, eating-houses and hotels,
and the more timid of our victims will en
ter without alarm.”
RUMSELLER.
W hat is your Daughter 1 making ol f
You aro very careful of her dress ; you
attend personally to its purchase and fit.
You go with her to see that her foot is
nicely gaitered, and you give your milliner
special instructions as to the make and be
comingness of her bouuet, but do you ever
ask yourself what is she thinking about?
In other words do you know anything at
all of her inner life? Many who are es
teemed most excellent mothers, arc as ig
norant on this all-important point as if
they had never looked upon their daugh
ters’ faces. They exact respectful obedi
ence, aud if the young crcatureyields it, and
has no need of a physician's immediate
service, they consider their duty done.
Alas! what a fatal mistake ' These are
the mothers who, never having invited
the confidence of the young hearts, live
to see it bestowed anywhere and every
where but in accordance with their wishes.
Is it, can it be enough to a mother worthy
the name, to be satisfied that her daugh
ter’s physical wants are cared for ? What
of that yearning, hungry soul, that is cast
ing about here and there, for something to
satisfy its questions. ,(5h, give me a
thought sometimes of this. When she sits
there by the fire or by the window, musing,
sit down by her and love her thoughts out
of her. Cast that fatal •* dignity ” to the
winds, which has come between so many
creatures and the heart to which they
should lie nearest in these important form
ing years. “ Respect is good in its place
but when it freezes up your daughter’s
soul-utterance—when it sends her for sym
pathy and companionship to chance guides
what then? A word, a loving, kind word
at the right moment—no mind can over
estimate its importance. Remember this
wheu you see the sad wrecks of woman
hood about, and amid the sweeping waves
of life’s cares and life’s pleasures, whatso
ever else you neglect, do not fail to know
what that young daughter of yours is think
ing about!"
-—m —
*arT he reason why some people know
not their duty on great occasions, is that
they will not take the trouble of doing
their duty on little occasions.

Sensible Advice-Miss M. E. Davis,
one of the five Uiterary Editresses of
the Iuka (Miss.) Mirror, thus talks to
the “gay and festive” ones:
Never think a lady dead In love with
you, because she chances, occasionally,
to smile graciously- on you. Remem
ber every woman lias more or less co
quetry in her nature, and that she may
probably mean nothing more by her
gracious smile, than to induce you to
declare yourself to he her devoted lov
er, that she may add your name to her
list of conquests.
After taking a drink, never sit so
near a lady that she will he compelled
to inhale the nauseating fumes of
liquor.
