THE APPLE. 
BY CLARENCE COOK. 
I picked an apple from the ground, 
A perfect apple, red and round; 
Its flower-like perfume caught the sense 
"With guests of balm and frankincense, 
Borne on the wind that lightly flew 
Through the clear dome of cloudless blue. 
A swarm of ants had found the prize 
Before it met my wandering eyes, 
And careless in their busy pleasure, 
Ran o’er and o’er the fragrant treasure. 
I blew them off, nor cared to know 
Whither the luckless things might go. 
So God, who holdeth in his hand 
This perfect w'orld on which we stand, 
Blows us, ah whither, with his breath ? 
Our friends who miss us, call it Death.

THE UNYIELDING WIFE: 
fiouso-keeping, I engaged to take charge of 
a district school, which was managed by a 
board of trustees, who were authorized to 
employ and pay a teacher, tho teacher being 
more or less controlled by them : their oc¬ 
casional interference was, to a temperament 
like mine, exceedingly irritating. 
Ono day I returned from school in a very 
angry mood, assorting that I would neither 
submit to tho dictates of the trustees or any 
one elso, when my eldest sister said, with 
an arch smile, “What will you do when you 
are married ? You will then have to ‘love, 
honor, and obey.’” My temper was not in 
the least softened by tho question, and I re¬ 
plied,very emphatically, that when I married 
it would be my husband’s duty to make me 
happy, and if he did not conform to my 
wishes I should endeavor to make him.— 
Foolish, wayward girl, that I was, to resolve 
in my own mind that I -would abide by so 
absurd a determination.— how little did I 
reflect how much influence, prido and ob¬ 
stinacy would exert in causing me to adhere 
to this expression of perverted will.

riding some of the necessary articles for Finding he had taken tho night-koy I deter¬ 
mined to sit up no longer. I retired, but 
could not sleep. The mild beams of the 
moon came softly stealing through the win¬ 
dow filling tho room with fantastic shapes 
of light and shade, bearing to my troubled 
mind a self-examination too long deferred. 
As the night deepened and my husband 
came not, I wept bitter tears of self-accusa¬ 
tion, and in proportion to my fears for his 
safety did my repentance for the past and 
resolves for tho future deepen and expand. 
I knew the store had closed some hours 
before, and wo had fow friends, indeed none 
with whom he could be spending tho eve¬ 
ning,—where can ho be ? was the constantly 
recurring question. J ust as the clock struck 
one, I heard the click of the night key, and 
his step on tho stairs. With my fears, van¬ 
ished repentance from my volatile hoart, 
and by the time he reached the room I was 
prepared to pour a storm of invective on 
his devoted head. Ho paused on the thresh¬ 
old, and as the moon shone full on his face, 
I perceived that he was pale and excited, 
and in tho moonlight, exhibited a ghastliness 
that shocked mo so much I sprang from the 
bed, exclaiming, “Joseph ! Mr. Leland, what 
is the matter ?” He stared at me an instant 
and in an excited tone replied, “Don’t bo a 
fool, Clara; go back to bed and let me alone.” 
The truth flashed on my mind, and I indig¬ 
nantly and silently, again pressed my pillow, 
■where I sought to fasten the blame on him 
rather than take any share to myself. The 
next day nothing was said of tho occurences 
of tho preceding day and night; in fact there 
were few words spoken on any subject; I 
felt injured and a gloom seemed to have set¬ 
tled on the countenance and manner of my 
husband. 
It was not till years after, that I knew 
what I may as well mention now. When 
Mr. Leland left the store on that eventful 
night, ho paused a moment on the thresh- 
hold uncertain whither to direct his steps, 
dreading, after the toils of the day to en¬ 
counter tho fretfulness of an arbitrary wife 
at home. Homo !—homo no longer to his 
peace-loving and gentle spirit. Just then 
an acquaintance passed, and accosting him 
gaily, invited him to go and partake of an 
oyster supper at a fashionable restaurant. 
Unhappily, his stomach prompted his mind 
to accept the invitation. That night the 
tempting wine cup was held to his lips; a 
second and third followed in rapid succes¬ 
sion, and in what state he sought his cham¬ 
ber, wo have alroady seen. 
Following this, there came a succession 
of days and months fraught with tho deep¬ 
est misery to both of us. I will draw a veil 
over the recollections of this period, only 
mentioning that but a few months had 
elapsed before the hollow cheek and blood¬ 
shot eyes told a tale that none who saw him 
could fail to read. My husband’s conduct 
and appearance at this time, instead of 
causing self-reproach, and exciting pity, 
led me to look upon myself as the most in¬ 
jured of wives, and my selfish and wicked 
heart, hardened towai’ds him till I rarely 
spoke, save in tones of harshness and re¬ 
proach. 
We had now been married about two years. 
One morning Mr. Leland went to the store 
as usual but soon returned. On looking at 
him I caught my breath in astonishment; 
his eyes were wild and gleamed like hot 
coals, and as he staggered across the room, 
ho would have fallen had ho not grasped a 
chair into which he sank. Ho sat a moment 
as if collecting his thoughts, then in a voice 
firm and solemn, whilo I almost felt his 
burning gaze he said, “ Clara, this day I am 
a ruined man—my employers have watched 
my steps, have lamented over my downward 
course, have expostulated with me; finding 
it all to no purpose, this day on which I 
should have been raised to an honorable 
and profitable position finds, me cast oft’, 
sick, broken-hearted, alone, without money 
and without friends. Trouble and disap¬ 
pointment drove me to the wine cup; then, 
to find oblivion for my sorrows, I neglected 
my business, became involved in debt, and 
this is the conscquenco. I fear that you 
have long since ceased to love or respect 
me, Clara, and think mo too degraded to feel 
such an emotion,— but it is not so—God 
knows I lovo you, and it is the conviction 
that this love has been thrown back on my 
own heart, without any sympathy or return, 
that has made me what I am.” 
I felt that his words were true, alas ! too 
true—and tho thought of all my unkindness, 
my love and waywardness, came rushing on 
my heart with overwhelming power, that 
brought agonizing tears to my eyes. As my 
husband ceased speaking his head sank on 
his bosom; 1 sprang to his side and found 
he had fainted. Using such restoratives as 
were at hand, I placed him in bed and sent 
for a physician. For woeks ho lingerod on 
tho verge of tho grave. In the delirium of 
fever he uttered truths that his kind heart 
would have shrunk from inflicting on his 
erring Avife. At length he began to recover, 
but before ho rose from that couch of suf¬ 
fering, mutual confessions had been made, 
and I, tho guilty aggressor, sought forgive¬ 
ness of him whom I had so deeply wronged 
even as I had before asked it of our Heav¬ 
enly Father, and together wo prayed for de¬ 
livery from temptation. Never shall I for¬ 
get the light of love and hopo that beamed 
from his eyes when the past was put out of 
remembrance. What cared we now if we 
were poor ? we were rich in faith and love, 
and if health was given us we might yet be 
happy. To me tho past had brought a use¬ 
ful lesson. At this time my parents and 
sisters exercised a kindness toward U3 that 
called forth our heartfelt gratitude. Joseph 
remained feeble a long time, and mother, to 
whom I had told all, took him to their 
pleasant homo in tho country, and nursed 
him carefully and tenderly, while I remain¬ 
ed behind, sold off our things, and with the 
assistance of my kind father, every debt to 
tho last farthing was paid. As Joseph was 
still unable to labor, my father proposod 
that we should remain at homo, my husband 
keeping accounts and assisting’in such light 
matters as he could do, while I assisted my 
mother. Ho said ho had enough for us all. 
0 how thankful I was, and how hard I tried 
to be good and kind to all. 
About a year from this time, our little child 
was born, but my cup of joy at this event 
was doomed to be mingled with sorrow. Jo¬ 
seph began rapidly to decline—neither love 
or caro could save him, and they laid him 
in a shady nook beneath the great willow 
in a corner of the farm, and tho little brook 
that babbles by murmurs his requiem to 
this day. Just as his eyes wore closing for¬ 
ever on this world, I knelt beside him with 
our boy in my arms; my husband placed ono 
wasted hand on tho head of tho child and 
tho other on mine, and said, “ Clara, inas¬ 
much as you lovo me, guard well tho foot¬ 
steps of this little one; I entrust his happi¬ 
ness to your keeping, believing our Heaven¬ 
ly Father will bless your endeavors—fare¬ 
well—the God of lovo bless and keep you, 
my wife and child.” I have considered this 
his dying trust a sacred ono, and have en¬ 
deavored to execute it, with what success 
the well ordered life of my son will attest. 
I remained at homo till my son married: 
since then I have lived in tho family. My 
mother has passed away, and there are now 
two graves beneath tho willow. My father 
is an aged man, and resides with my eldest 
sister on the old homestead. 
I am now an old woman, full of years and 
experience, but I trust that each successive 
year since I returned to my father’s house 
has found mo wiser and bettor; and if tho 
knowledge of my bitter experience shall 
prevent your taking a single false step which 
will surely bo followed by its appropriate 
punishment, tho end in writing this confes¬ 
sion will have been accomplished.

A GOBLET OF WATER UPSIDE DOWN. 
Tms is an exceedingly good trick, when per¬ 
formed adroitly. Fill a goblet with water, lay a 
piece of paper on the top of it, place the palm of 
yonr left han i flat on the paper, and press it close¬ 
ly down ; then take hold of the foot of the gob¬ 
let with the right hand, and invert the position of 
the glass, still pressing the paper close with the 
left hand. Hold it in this manner for a minute or 
two, and then withdraw the left hand, when the 
paper will remain attached to the glass, as shown 
in the illustration; for the pressure of air under¬ 
neath, acting against the paper with a superior 
weight to that of the water, is sufficent to retain 
it in its position, and consequently sustain the 
water in the goblet.
