THE TRUE HERO.
..__.__
He is a hero, who risks his life
For his country’s good, on the field of strife ;
no is a hero, who bears his flag
’Till naught islcft but a tatter’d rag ;
He is a-hero who lifts his arm
To shieldhis tl'iend from fatal harm ;
He is a hero who buffets the wave .
To pluck a soul from a watery grave;
Who cli s a ladder with stifled breath,
To snatch a babe from a fiery death :—
Yes ; heroes these, sublime and grand,—
The'pride and boast of the proudest land ;
But greater than all is the nameless youth,

“There’s pa! Here comes pa! 0h, pa,wc’rc
'glad to see you ! Hurrah for pa !” etc.,_ etc.
The bishop looked at. the children as they
flocked around him. and clung to his legs
and coat, and was astonished to perceive
that they were neither his nor ,thc late
Brown’s. He said, “you youngsters have
madc'a mistake; l'am not your father?’
and he smiled gool naturedly.
“0, YES, you are though !" screamed the
little ones in chorus. ' ‘ '
“But I say I (am not," said the bishop,
severely, 'apd frowning; Don’t y-Olt know
where little storydtellcrs go? It is scandal-
ous to violate the truth in this uranncr.
My name is Potts.
“Yes, we _know- it is,” exclaimed the
children—“we know it is; and so is ours,
thatis our name now too since the wed-
ding." , _
“Since what wedding?” demanded th
bishop, turning pale.
“Why, ma’s wedding, of coursie. She
wasmarried yesterday to you by Mr. Young,
and we are all living at your house now
with our newlittle brothers and sisters.”
The bishop sat down on the pavement
and wiped away a tear. Then he asked :--
“Who was your father ‘2" -
“Mr. Simpson,” said the crowd, “and he
died on Tuesday.”
“And how many ot'fiis infernal old- wid-
ows,——I mean how many of your mother
are there ?” ~ . _
“Only twenty-seven,” replied the children
“and there are only sixty-four of us and are
awful glad yOu have come home.”
The bishop did not scem'unusually glad ;
somehow, he failed to enter into the enthu-
siasm of the occasion. ~Therc appeared to

Who laughs to scorn thc'tempter’s power,
And stands by the right in 'danger’s houi'.

ms TRIALS AT or'mrsmusj'rmn. ,
Bishop Potts of Salt Lake: City was the
husband of three wives and the happy father
of fifteen interesting children. ' Early in the
winter the bishop determined that his little '
ones should have a good time on Christmas,
so he concluded to take a tfip down to San
Francisco to see what he could find in the
shape of toys to gratify and amuse them..
The good bishop ‘packed his carpet-bag.
embraced Mrs. Potts one by one and kissed
each of her afi‘ectionately, and started upon
his journey.
He was gone a little more than a week,
when he came back with fifteen; beautiful
mouth-organs in his valisc for his darlings.
He got out of the train at Salt Lake, think-
inglhow joyous and exhilerating it would
be at borne on Christmas morning when the
whole fifteen OT those mouth organs should
be in operation upon different tunes at the
same moment. Butjust as he entered the
depot he saw a group of women standing in
the ladies’ room apparently waiting for him.
As soon as he approached, the whole twenty
of them rushed up, threw their arms about
his neck and kissed him, cxclaiming:
, "Oh,.Theodorc, we are so—so glad you
have come back! Welcome home! We!-
come, dear, dear Theodore! Welcome once
more to the bosom of your family!" and
then the entire score of them fell- upon his
neck and cried over his shirt and massed
him.
The bishop wasjs'urpriscd and embarrass-
ed. Struggling to disengage himself, he
blushed and said .— . »
“Really,ladies, this kind of thing is well
enough—it is interesting and all that, but
there must be some kind of a-that is, an
awkward sort ofa ecxcuse me, ladies but
there seems to be, as it were a slight mis-
understanding ‘about the—I am Bishop
Potts.” . .
“We know. it, We know it dearest," they
exclaimed in chorus,.“and we are glad to.
see you safe, safe at home. We have 'all
been right well while youwere away, love."
“It gratifics me," remarked the bishop,
"to learn that none of you have been a prey
to disease. I am filled with blissful serenity
when Icontemplatc the factfibut really I
do not understand why. you should rush
into thishilway station and hug me be-
cause your- livers are activc and your diges-
tion good. The precedent is bad; it is dan
:gerous l".
“Oh, but we didn’t!” they exclaimed in
chorus._ “We came here to welcome you
because you are our husband.”
“Pardon me, but there must be some little
—that is to say, as it were, I should think
nbt. Women, you must have mistaken
your man." ‘
“Oh no, dearest 1” they shouted, “We
were'married to you while you were away !',
“What i” exclaimed the bishop, “you
don’t mean to say that—” , ~
“Yes, love. Ourhusband VWilttamBrown,
died on Monday, and on Tuesday- Brigham
had a vision in which he was directed to
seal us to you ;._and so he performed the
ceremonyXat once by proxy."
“Th-th~th-th-under!" observed the bishop,
in a general sort of a way. . .
“And, darling, we arc all living with you
now—we and the dear children.” ‘
“Children! children!” exclaimed Bishop
Potts, turning pale, “you don’t mean to say
that there is a pack of children, too ?”
“Yes, love, but only one hundred and
twenty-five, not counting the eight twins
and the triplet." ' ‘
Wha-wha-wha-what if you say 2" gasped
the bishop, in a cold respiration : “one
hundred and twenty-five . One hundred and
twenty-five children and, twenty more
wives! It is too much—it is .awful!" and
the bishop sat down and groaned, while the
late Mrs. Brown, the bride, stbod around in
a semicircle and‘fanncd him with her.‘ bon-
nets, all except the red-haired one, and she
in her trepidation made a futile effort to fan
him with the coal scuttle. ‘
But after a while the bishop became rec-
onciled to his new alliancc,. knowing well
that protests would be una'v'ai-ling; so he
walked home, holding ‘as many of the little
hands of the bride, as he could conveniently
gra'sp in his, while the red-haired woman
cal'riedhis umbrella and marched} in front
of the parade to remove obstructions and to
scare sma‘ll boys. .
When the bishop reached the house, he
went around among the cradles which filled
the back parlor and the two second-story
, rooms, and attempted with such earnestness
to become acquainted with his new sons and
daughtersthat he set the whole one bun.
dred and twenty-five and the twins to cry-
ing, while his own original .fif‘tecn stood
around and joined in the chorus.
Then the bishop went a and sat on the
garden fence to whittle a stick and solemu- ’
ly think, while Mrs. Potts distributed her~
self in twenty-three places and soothed the
children. It occurred to the bishop while
he mused, out there on the fence, that he
had not enough of mouth organs to go
around among the children as the family
now stood; and so, rather than seem to be
partial, be determined to go back to San
Francisco for one. hundred and forty-four
more.
So the bishop rcpackcd. his carpet-bag
and began again to bid farewell to his fami-
ly. He tenderly kissed all of Mrs. Potts
who were at home, and started for the depot,
while Mrs. Potts stood at the various win-
dows-and wavedhandkerchict‘s at him—all
except the wornan inith the warm hair, and
she in‘a fit of ,abaent-hlindedncss, held one
of the twins by the leg and brandished it at
Potts as he tied down the street,
The bishop reached San Francisco, com-
pleted his purchases, and was just about to
get on the train with his one hundred and
forty-four mouth organs, when a telegram
was handedhiln. ’ It contained information
to the effect that the auburn-haired Mrs.
Potts had just had a daughter. This in-
duced the bishop to return to the city for
.the purpose of purchasing an additional
organ. _
On the following'Saturday he returned
home. As he approached his house a
Missouri. At a recent couclavc
be inacertain sense, two much samenelss
about these surprises, so he sat there with
his hat pulled over his eyes and considered
the situation. Finally seeing there was no
help for it, be rushed up to the house, and
forty-eight oers. Potts rushed up to him
and kissed him, and told him how the pro-
phct had had another vision .in'which he
was commanded to seal Simpson‘s widow
to Potts. ‘ . . -
the cradles to . his writing-desk, where he
felt among the gum rings and rattles for his
'writing paper, and then addressed a note to
Brigham, asking him as a personal favor to
keep awake until after Christmas. The
he sold. Then the bishop 88w clearly
enough that if he gave presents to the other
children and not to the late Simpson’s the
bride relict of Simpson would probably
and make it warm for him.“ So, repacking
his carpctbag, he started again for San
Francisco fdr sixty-four more mouth-organs,
while Mrs. Potts' gradually took leave of
him in the entry—all but the red haired
wOman, who was up stairs, and who had to
be satisfied with screeching good-bye at
the top of her voice. '
I On his way home, after his .last visit to
San Francisco, the bishop sat in the car by
the side of a. man who had left Salt Lake
the day before. ' The stranger was commu-
nicative. In tho course of the conversatiOn
he remarked to the bishop: “That-was a
lively little afiair up there in the ‘city on
Monday." '
“Whatjafi‘air?” asked Potts.
“Why, that Wedding; McGrath’s widow,
you know—married by proxy.” _ .
“You don't Say,” replied the bishop. “I
didn't know that McGrath was dead."
“Yes; he died on Sunday, and that night
Brigham had a vision in which he was
ordered to seal her to thc bishop."
“Bishop 1" exclaimed Potts. “Bishop!
what bishop f" _ »
“Well, you see there were fifteen of Mrs.
McGrath and eighty-two children, and they
shoved the whole lot ofl‘ on old Potts. Per-
haps you don’tknow him!“
The bishop gm 9. wild‘unearthly shriek
and went into a hysterical fit, and writhed
on tho floor as if he had hydr obia.
W hen 'he recovered, hc leaped from the
train and walked back to San Francisco.
He afterward took the first steamer for Peru,
where he cutcrcd a monastery and became
a celibatc.
His carpet bag was sent to his family. It
contained the balance of thc mouth-organs.
On Christmas morning they were distribut-
ed, and in less than two hours the entire
,two hundred and eight children were sick
from sucking paint off them. Adoctor was
called, and he seemed so much interested
in the family that Brigham} divorced the
whole concern from old Potts and annexed
it to the doctor, who immediately lost his
'rcason and would have butchered the entire
family if the red haired woman. and me
oldest boy had not marched him off to a In-
natic asylum, where he spent his time try-
ing to arrive at an estimate of,thc number
of his children by cyphering‘with an impos-
sible combination of the multiplication table
and algebra—MazAdelor.

Homes of Poor Settlers in Nebraska.
“Ono half of the world knows not how the
other part lives.” We were impressed anew
by this familiar adage while reading a letter
of a missionary of the American Sunday-
School Union in Nebraska, giving some ac-
count of his field, and espciallythc homes
of many of the poor settlers. He says:
“Our State is'yourig and growing rapidly.
The majority of the settlers, however, are
men of limited means; and whom their $14
arc expended in’securing a homestead, many
cannot build comfortable houses until they
make enough from _thcir farms. Timber is
very scarce, except on the borders of large
streams; and so log cabins-the first resort
of settlers in other Ssates—are out of the
question. Therefore "Sod-houses,” or “Dug-
outs" arc the only resource. The former,
built out of blocks of sod, is in danger of
being washed away by heavy rains. The
latter is made by digging a hole in the earth
and covering it with brush and sod; and is
ornamented with one hole for a window
and another for a door. The car-then floor
does not need scrubbing, and is not burden-
ed with a carpet. The cottonwood bed-
stcads and stools arc destitute of paint.
Fleas, musqnitocs and bugs claim a shelter,
and rattlehakcs enter occasionally. Yet
the children that issuc'from these holes (rc-
scmbling the homes of gophcrs and wood-
chuck) are as happy as if their house were
a ‘hrown stone front’ on Central Park."

Small Pox.
The following is the last part of a letter
written by the Rev. Thomas K. Beecher to
a lecture committee in Genesco, N. Y., who
had scrlt him word that they were obliged
to postpone his projected lecture because of
a small pox panic in that place: .
“Pardon me for adding that I am amazed
at in this intelligent nineteenth century,
mil in the refined village of Gcncseo, there
should be a smallgpox panic, when the,only
calls that I make it a mattenof duty to at-
tcnd with punctuality are calls .upon small
pox patients. I would rather have the
small pox than the tooth-ache any time,
though ilrc latter is not catching.”
“If any word of intelligent contempt from
me can be of use to you, please pass the
word‘aro'und from me that cleanly and vac-
cinated persons are~in no more danger of
small pox than they are of virtue without
cflort.”
“Every year for the last twenty-five years
I have been exposed again and again, and
never dreamed of takipg any precaution ex-
cept cleanliness and vaccination. I have
had it in my family, one member sick, and
no other takingit, and have seen it in its
very worst forms, so I speak by the card
and not theoretically. Tell the good peo-
ple of Geneseo not to make fools of them-
selves.” .

This instrument is especially designed for the per-
fect application of
on. more CATARRH uuulnv. J
It is the oniy form of instrument yet invented
with which fluid medicine can be carried high up
and llcijfdclly applied to all parts of the affected nasal
‘mssagcs, and the chambers or cavities communicat-
ng therewith, in which sores and ulcers frequently
exist, and from which the catarrhal discharge gene-
rally proceeds." The want of success in treating
Catarrh heretofore has arisen largely from the impos-
libility of applying remedies to these cavities and
:harnbcrs by any of the ordipary methods. This
obstacle in the way of effecting cures ls entirely
overcome by the invention of the Douche. Ir. usin
this instrument. the Fluid is carried by than weigh ,
(no canning, forcing or pumplng being remitted.) up one
nostril in a full gently flowing stream 0 the highest,
portion of the nasal passages, passes into and thor-
oughly cleanses all the tubes and chambers connected
therewith, audflowc out of the opposite upstrtt. its use
is pleasant, and so simple th 3 child can under-
stand it. Full and exp Iclt direction-
accompany each instrument. When used witlrthis
instrument. Dr. Sawe‘s Catarrh Remedy cures recent
attacks of “ Golf in the Head ’ by a few ap-
plications.
Symptoms of Catnrrh. Frequent head-
ache, discharge falling tutu throat. sometimes pro-

Asbeautiful Kitty one morning was trip-
ping
With a pitcher of milk, from the fair
of
Goldmine. -
When she saw me she stumbled, the pitcher
it tumbled,
‘And all the sweet buttermilk watered the
plain.
0 what shall I do now ‘? ’twas looking at
you now I
Sure, sure, such a pitcher ITll ne’er meet
again ;
Twas the pride of my dairy; 0 Barney

You’re sent as a plague to the girls of

I sat down beside her, and gently did chidc
her,
That such a misfortune should give her
such pain ;
A kiss then I gave her; and, ere I did leave
her '
She vowed for such pleasure she‘d break
it again.
’Twas hay-making season—[can‘t tell the
reason-—
Misfortuncs will never come single, tis

The Humor-n of Adverthlng.
Advertisers are adopts in ambiguity. A
lady advertises her desire to obtain a bus-
band “with a Roman nose having strong rc-
ligious tendencies.“ “A spinster particular-
ly fond of children,” informs the public that
she “wishes for two or three, having none of
her own.” Somebody wants “a young man
to look' after a horse of the Methgdist per-
suasiOn ;" a diaper desires to meé‘fiwith an
assistant who would “take an active and
energetic in a small first-class trade, and in
a quiet family ;” and a Boston chemist ad-
vertises, “the gentleman who left hisstom-
ach for analysis will please call and. get it,
together with the result." Slipshod Eng-
lish is not, however, confined to the ddver-
tising columns, or we should not read of the
shooting of a. wild cat “by a little boy five
feet eight inches long ;" of a procession
which was “very fine, and nearly two miles
in length, as. was also the prayer of Mr.
Perry,- the chaplain ;” nor should be much
scandalizcd to note the fact recently stated
in some journal, that ‘ p self-made man ar-
rived in California twenty years ago with
only one shirt to his back, and since then
has contrived, by close application to busi-
ness, to accumulate over ten millions." An
English theatrical paper, after announcing
a forthcoming benefit performance, went on,
“Of course every one will be there, and for
the cdification of_those who are absent, a
full report will be found in our next paper.”
The following advertisements are collected
from Irish papers: “One pound reward.
Lost, a valuable cameo bl ooch,'representin g
Venus and Adonis on the Drumcondra road,
about 10 o’clock on Tuesday eveniffg." Ad-
vertisemcnt' of a wine merchant: “The ad-
vertiser, having made 'an:advantageou’s pur-
chase, ofi'ers for sale, on very low terms,
about six dozen of prime port wine, lately
the property of a gentleman 40 years of age’ .
full in body, and with a high bouquet},
The two following emanated from a well-
known livery stable keeper 2' “To be sold.
cheap, a splendid grey horse, calculated for
a charger, or would carry a lady with a
switch tail.” "To be sold cheap, a mail
phzetou, the property of a gentleman with
a movable head, as good as new.” “Ten
shillings reward. Lost, bya gentleman, a
white terrier dog, except the head, which is
black. To be brought to,” »&c. To these
Irish advertisements may be added an Eng-
lish one, which Eves the subject of a humor-
sscsscd. Old frien s from the country invited to

A reviv‘alist is reported to have told this
story to illustrate coming straight to the
point: ' . .
\thn a boy, he wassu‘mmoned to testify
in a case of assault, in which one man had-
hit another with a hoe. A host of wit-
nesses had been called, who “heat about the
bush" in the most tedious and provoking
manner, without giving one iota of inculpa-
ting proof. This exasperated the lawyer
for the prosecution, who brokeout as fol-
lows, as the teller of the story entered the
box.
“Here, boy, We’ve been going around
and around this case all day, and yet have
no evidence to convict the prisoner. Now,
sir,” he savagely continued, “do you hear
me? I want you to come to the direct
point. Did you see‘ the blow struck ?”
“Yes, sir!”
“Ah, ha i” chuckled the. lawyer, rubbing
his palms together, and grinning immoder-
ately. “Now’ we shall have something to
work upon. Here, my good lad, take this
cane (handing him his walking stick). If
you saw the NOW struck you must know
how it. was given"—
“Yes, sir. 1"— _
“Now, then, no words about it, I tell
you 1”» thundered his interrogator. “I am
the defendent and you are the prisoner.
Now just raise the stick and show the court.
The bewildered lad did “raise lhe stick,"
and the next instant it came crashing down
upon the‘head of the astounded lawyer,
echoing from the bald pate to the end of
the room, and sent him staggering to. his
seat.
“That’s the way it was done sir!” said
the boy, amid the shriek: of laughter of the
whole court room. The discomfited coun-
set, with a ghastly attempt at a smile. said
that he had done with tlnfiwitness—the’evh
deuce was direct. "

A ministerial friend gives the following
incident which recently occurred in a school
with which he was acquainted.
The teacher of the infant class in a Sun-
day school in D asked her scholars if
any of tllem had a verse of Scripture to re-
peat. Up went a little hand, and the
[clicker said, “Bessie, what is your. verse?”
.The child answered, “Blessed are the dress-
makers for they shall be called "the children
of God.” - '

In the ruins of Pompeii therefwas found
a petrified woman, who, instead of trying
to fly from the destroyed city,had spent her
time in gathering lip her jewels. She sav-
ed neither hcr life nor her jewels. There
are multitudes making the same mistake.
In trying to get earth and heaven, they lose
both. “Ye cannot serve God and Mam-
mon.” Be one thing or the other.

The latter retaliated by burning his barn
down, and then went gunning for- the old
man, but couldn’t find him. -
A doctor, like everybody else at this sea-
son, went out for a day’s sport, and com-
plained of having killed nothing. “That’s
the consequence of having neglected your
business,” observed the wrfe. '
