Look at that braeo of hands, onoe soft and pretty, now sutfaied wilh Efiyptian blushes. Look into thoae optica and tell ua tales of synipalhy. And look ai that Mount Tnm on our right obeek bone, liase ball 1    Tbat is Ihe row.
Il oane about tbus. Secondary deploy¬ ment is to shirksonic on lbe ayslem Ihe doctor said we nocdrd exeroiso. Doctor knows. He lold us lo join base ball; wo joined. DnuKht a book of inslruolions, and for fivo davs atudifd it wisely, if not too well. Then we bonpht a auftaraeoop cap, a red belt, a preen abiit, yellow trous¬ ers, pumpkin colored sboea, a paper collar, and purple necktio, and, wilh'a lot of othor delegates, moved gently to the grnund.
There were two nines. These nines were aotaponisla. Tho bnll is a pretty little dinp of snflneia, thc size of a cnoso- epg, and five dsprees harder than a brick. Tho two nineg pla; against cnch other. It i« a quiet panic much like chois, only a little more chase tban cbera.
There was an umpire. His position is * hard one. Ua sils on a box and yells 'Toul."    His dul; ia severe.
I look tho bat. Il is a murderous play- thinp, descended from Pocbahonlaa lo the head of Joho Sniilh. The man in front of rae was a piloher. He waa a nice pitcher, but he aent tho balls hot. Tho man behind me was a catcher. He caught it, loo!
The umpire said "play." It is the moat radical play I know of, this base ball. Sawinp oord wood ia mconliphl rambles bcsido base ball. So lho pilcbcr aent a ball Inward mo. It luuked pretl; ooinlnp ; so 1 lel it eomo. Thon ho sont anniher. I hit it with the club and hove it gontl; upward. Then I started to walk to tho first base. Tbe bnll lit in tbe pitch¬ er, or his hands, and snmebndy said he caupht a fly ! I walked leisurely toward the bale. Another man look lho bat. I turned tn see how ho was makinp it, and a mule kioked me nn a oboek. 'The man said it was tho ball. It felt liko a mule, and I reposed on lho grass. Tha ball wont on I
Prelly eoon thero wero two more flies, and three of us flew out. Thon tho ctber nino came in and us nine went ont. This was bolter. Ju,st os I waa standing nn roy disinily in tho loft field, a hut ball, as thcy called it, came skyrocketing toward ino.    My captain veiled, "Tako it!"
I hastened gently forward to whero the ball was aiming to descend. I havo a pood eyo lo measure distances, nnd saw at a glanco where the little rDrolite waa to light. I put up my hands. Ilow sweet¬ ly the ball descended. Everybody lonked —I felt something warm in roy eye! "Muflin 1" yelled ninety fellers.     "Muflin
be d d !    It's a   cannon   ball!"    For
three daya I've had two   pounds   nf  raw beef on that eye. and yet it painelh 1
Thon I wanled lo po home, bnl my caplain snid "nay." Ro I naycd and stayed. Prelly soon it waa my slrike. "Hrick fo the bat!" yelled the umplro. 1 wont, but not all serene aa was my wont. The piloher sent in ono hip high. I missed il. Hc sent in another neck high. It struck me in the pullet. "Foul!" yell¬ ed the umpire. Ho sent in the ball again. This time I look it square and aent il 1 down the right field, throngh a psrlor win¬ dow—a kernaene lamp, and rip up ngainsl I the head of an infant who was quietly I taking its nap in his or ita innlhor's arms. Then I alung lho bnl and meandered forth lo the first base I heord high wnrds and lonked When I slung tbo bal I hod with it brnken tho jaw of Iho umpire, and was fined ten eents.
The Enme went on. I liked il It is sn much fun to run frnm base lo baso just in time to be put nnl, or tn chase a ball threc-furlbs ofa mile down hill, wbile all thc spectatnra yell "muflin!" "go it!" "home run!" "go round again !" or "go round a doxeo times!" Baso ball is a aweet litllc game. When il came my turn to bat again. I nnlieed everybody mnrn back about lon rods I Tho new umpire rrlreated about twelve rodi. lie was tim¬ id ! Th9 pitcher sent'ero in hol. Hot balls in time nf wnr are good. Rut I don'l liko'cm Iw hut for fun. After a while I got a fair clip at it, and ynn bot it went, entlinn the daiaiea down the right field. A fat man and bis dog sat in Ibn shade of an oak enjoying Iho game. Tbe ball broke one leg id the dng and landed, lika a runaway engine, in Ihc corporosily of the fat man. lie was takrn boiue to die.
Then I wont on doublc-quiuk lo tho field, and tried to stop a hut ball. It came toward me from thc bat at tho rato nf nine milea a uiinttte. I put up my bands, tlin ball went sweetly tinging on ila way wilh all the skin from my palina wilh il. More raw beef!
Tbat waa an eventful ohap who fnst in¬ vented baso ball. It'a nuch fun. I've played five games, and this ia the result: "Twenly scTeo dollara paid ont for thiogs.

When tho spring freshets como. or tho awell of tho audden sunimer lain has raised the lakes abovo Ihelr commnn lovnl, slill theso beauties of vegclslion rise with the rising tide. Whon tho storm comes thundering down tho mountains, and Ihe billows loss, and whilo capa sparkle, slill tbeso broad, shield like leavea, float and warp and un¬ dulate, but ennnot be submerged. Why ? Tliero is a long, fino filament which stretches downward through lho depths nnd moors them to lho bollnm, wbcro tho in¬ terlocking roots hold ihem wilb a graip which will anITer the stem to break befnre they will unclasp.

Win. Savory, an eminent minister among the Quakers, was a tanner by trade. Ono night a quanlily of bides were stolen from his tannery, and ho had rensun to bolicve tbnt llio tbief was a quarrelsome, drunken neighbor called John Smith — Next week tho following adveitisonicnl appeared in tho county newspapers:
"Whoever stole n qunnlity of hides on lho .Olh ofthis month, is horeby informed that tho owner haa a sincere wiah lo be bis friend. If poverty induced him to tuko tbis falso stop, the nwner will keep lho whnle afl'air secret, and will gladly put him in thc way ofnblaining money by moans moro likely to hring peaoe of miod 1"
Thil singular advorlisement attracted considerable attention; but the culprit nlnno knew who had made tha kind offer. Wben bo rrad it his heart molted within bim, and he was filled with enrrow fur what he hnd done. A fow nighti after¬ words, as the lonncr's faniily were about rcliring to rest, they heard a limid knook and when the door wns opened, thero stood Jobn Smilh, with a load of hidoa on his shoulders. Without looking up ho aaid : "I have brought theso back, Mr. Savory ; whero shall I pul Ihcm ?"
"Wail till I oan get a lantern, and I will go to tho barn wilh theo," ho replied, "then thou wilt cnmo In and tell mo how this happened. Wo will see whal can bo dono for thoo."
As 8000 na Ihoy wore gnne oul, his wife prepared aomo hot coffee, and placed pies and meat on lbe table. Wbon thoy re¬ lurned from the barn, sho said : "Neigh¬ bor Smilh, I thought tomo hot coffee would be pood for thee."
lie lurncd his bnck towards hcr, and did not apeak. After lenninp against the firo'plnoe in silence for a few niomenls, he said in a choked voice—"It is the firsl lime I over stole anything, and 1 have fnlt vory bodly about it. I am sure I didn't oneo think that I should ever como lo what I nm. Kut I took to drinking, and thon to (luarrclling. Since I began to go down hill, everybody gives me a kick.— You arc the firsl man that bat offered me a helping bind. My wife is sickly and my cliildren starving. Yon havo sent to them mony a meal, Qnd bless you ! Hut yet I stole the hides. Hut I tell ynu lbe truth when I say it is llio first time I was over a Iblef."
"Lel it he the last, my friend," replied Wm. Savory. "Tho secret Ilea between onrselves.

BUSINESS AND RELIOIOV.
God gives grace adequate to every need I io life, and czpacia every Christian to grow in hulincsi, in tbo precise aphore in which He puts him. Tbe busineas man may bo¬ come godly behind tho oonnler, no leti than tha ininiiter in the pulpit, if ho lunga aod prayi fur Divine grace to tanctify his Tooation. The American Prcibyterian lias tomo good words on Ibis aubjeot:
We often hear Chrisllani complain of their leanness and eroplineia, andatlribulo it all lo thoir buiinots. If thoy are correct in the cauie of their want of religious en¬ joyment, then citber they are engaged in a wrong hosioesa, or they are pursuing it in awrong manner. No lawful builnois— aod a Chriiliao eannot engage in any oth¬ er—pursued in a proper manner, will in¬ jur* the religious eojoymeole of tho child of Ood, Ho thai has the love of GoJ in hit beart, aod does hit whole duly each day, toward God and man, will never flnd occasion to charge the blame of hit lean- nata to bis buaineat. The true Chrialiao, who does all to the glory uf God, ia nover moro happy Ihan wben full of buainesa with Goo, lot bim work for Ood eTery day io the week, and eooMcraleall bia income to the forthoranoe of Hia canse in the earth, and ho will fiod lhat bit buaineat, inalead of being a bindranee, will ba a help—a real meant of grace to him. lo- stoad nf letting hil businrat twallow up hil religion, hil religioo will iWellow up bit boaioeoa.
