THE BEAUTIFUL, 
Walk with the Beantifnl and with the Grand, 
Let nothing on the earth thy feet deter; 
Sorrow may lead thee weeping by the hand, 
Bnt give not all tby bosom thoughts to her; 
Walk with the Beautiful. 
I hear thee say, “The Beautiful I what Is it? 1 ' 
O, thou art darkly ignorant I Bo sure 
’Tis no long weary road its form to visit, 
For thou canat make it smile beside thy door; 
Then love the Beautiful. 
Aye, love it; ’ti3 a sister that will bless, 
And teach thee patience when thy bean is lonely: 
The angels love it for they wear its dress, 
And thou art made a little lower only; 
Tnen love the Beautiful. 
Some boast its presence in a Grecian lace; 
Some in a favorite warbler of the skies; 
Be not deceived 1 whate’er thine eye may trace, 
Seeking the Beautiful, it will arise; 
Then seek it, everywhere. 
Thy bosom is Its mint; the workmen are 
Thy tho’ts, and they must coin for thee, believing, 
The Beautiful exists in every star, 
Thou mak’et it so; and art, thyself deceiving, 
It" otherwise thy faith 
Dost thou see Beauty in the violet's cupf 
I’ll teach thee miracles! Walk on this heath, 
And say to the neglected flower, “ Look up, 
And he thou beautiful I” If thou hast faith, 
It will obey thy word. 
One thing I warn thee. Bow no knee to gold, 
Less innocent it makes the guileless tongue: 
It toms the feelings prematurely old ; 
And they who keep their best affections young 
Best love the Beautiful-

THE UNMEANT REBUKE. 
Charles Nelson list! reached his thirty- 
fifth year, and at that age he fom.d himself 
going down hili. He had once been one of the 
happiest of mortals, and no blessing was wanted 
to complete the sum of his happiness. He had 
one of the best of wives, and his children were 
intelligent and comely. He was a carpenter by 
trade, and no man could command better wages, 
or be more sure of work. If any man attempted 
to build a house, Charles Nelson must “boss” 
the job, and for miles around people sought him 
to work for them. But a change had come over 
his life. A demon had met him on his way, and 
he had turned back with the evil spirit. A new 
and experienced carpenter had been sent for by 
those who could no longer depend upon Nelson, 
and he had settled in the village, and now to@k 
Nelson’s place. 
On a back street, where the great trees threw 
their green branches over the way, stood a 
small cottage, which had been the pride of the 
inmates. Before it stretched a wide garden, but 
tall, rank grass grew up among the choking 
flowers, and the paling of the fence was broken 
in many places. The bouse itself had once i -ecii 
white, but it was now dingy and dark. Bright, 
green blinds had once adorned the windows, 
but now they had been taken off and sold. 
And the windows themselves bespoke poverty 
and neglect, for io many places the glass was 
gone, and shingles, rags and old hats had taken 
its place. A single look at the house and its 
accompaniments told the story. It was the 
drunkard’s home. 
Within, sat a w oman yet in her early years of 
life and thought; she was still handsome to look 
upon, hut the bloom had gone from her cheek, 
and the brightuc- had faded fiom her eyes. 
Poor Mary N«•!.■>,. ! Once she uad been the 
happiest among tin happy, but now none could 
be more miserable 1 Near her sat two children, 
both girls, and both beautiful in form and fea¬ 
ture; but their garbs were all patched and 
worn, and their feet were shoeless. The eldest 
was thirteen years of age, her sister a few years 
younger. The mother was bearing them re¬ 
cite a grammar lesson, for she had resolved that 
her children should never grow up in ignorance. 
They could not attend the common school, for 
thoughtless children sneered at them, and made 
them the object of sport and ridicule; but in 
this respect they did not suffer, for their mother 
was weLi educated, and she devoted such time 
as she coulu gp: re to their instruction. 
.For more than two years, Mary Nelson had 
earned all the money that had been used in the 
house. People hired her to wash, iron and sew 
for them, and besides the money paid, they 
gave her many articles of food and clothing. 
So [she lived on, and the only joys that dwelt 
with her now were teaching her children and 
praying to Hod. 
Supper bine came, and Charles Nelson came 
reeling home.' He had worked the day before 
at helping to move a building, and thus had 
earned money enough to find himself in rum 
for several days. A* he stumbled into the house - 
the children croue: • d close to their mother, and ; 
even she shrank aw -ty, for sometimes her bus- < 
band was ugly when thus intoxicated. 
Oh! how that, man had changed within two ; 
yearfi! Onco there was not, a finer looking man 1 
in the town. Inf.amebehad been tall, stout, 
compact, and perfectly formed, while his face ; 
bore the very beau ideal of manly beauty. But ] 
all was changed now. His noble form was i 
bent, his limbs shrunken and tremulous, and his 
l'aca all bloated and disfigured. He was not the 
man who had once been the fond husband and j 
.doting father. The loving wife had prayed, 
j and wept, and implored, but all to no purpose; i 
the husband was bound to the drinking com- : 
panions of the bar-room, and he would not ; 
break the bands. 
That evening Mary Nelson ate no supper, for • 
of all the food in the house, there was not more 1 
than enough for her husband and children; but ^ 
when her husband had gone, she went out and 1 
picked a few berries, and thus kept her vital ( 
energies alive. That night the poor woman 
prayed long and earnestly, and her little ones 
prayed with her. 
On the following morning Charles Nelson 
sought the bar-room as soon as he rose, but he 
was sick and faint, and the liquor would not 
revive him, for it would not remain on his 
stomach. He drank very deeply the night be¬ 
fore and he felt miserable. At length, how- 
We will not tell you how the stout man wept, 
nor how his noble friend shed tears to see him 
thus; but Charles Nelson took the plan, and 
having studied it for a while, he went out 
where the men weie at work getting the timber 
together, and Mr. Manly introduced him sh 
their master. That clay he worked but little, 
for he was not strong yet, but he arranged the 
timber, and gave directions for framing. At 
ever, he managed to keep down a few glasses of night he asked his employer if he dared trust 
hot sling, but the close atmosphere of the bar- him with a dollar. 
room seemed to stifle him, and he went out. 
The poor mun had sense enough to know that 
if he could sleep he should feel better, and he 
had just feeling enough to wish to keep away 
from home; so he wandered off to u wood not 
far from the village, and sunk down by a stone 
wall and was soon in a profound slumber. 
"When he awoke, the sun was shining down hot 
upon him, and raising himself to s sitting pos¬ 
ture, he gazed about bim. He was just on tbe 
point of rising, when his motion was arrested 
by the sound of voices near at hand. He looked 
through a chink in the wall, and just upon the 
other side he saw his two children picking ber¬ 
ries, while a little further off were two more 
girls, the children of the carpenter who had 
lately moved into the village. 
“ Come, Katie,” said one ol these latter girls 
to her companion, “let's go away from here, 
because if anybody should see us with those 
girls, they’d think we play ed with ’em. Come.” 
“But the berries are so thick here,” remon¬ 
strated the other. 
‘•Never mind — we’l: come out some time 
, when these little ragge- . drunkard’s girls are 
not here.” 
80 the two favored nro s went away hand in 
hand, and Nelly and Nancy Nelson sat down 
' upon the grass and crir< 
“Don’t cry, Nancy,” said tbe eldest, throw¬ 
ing her arms around her sister’s neck. 
“ But you are crying, Nelly.” 
•Oh, I can’t help it,” sobbed tbe stricken 
one. 
“ Why do they blame us?” murmured Nancy, 
gazing up into her sister's lace. Oh, we are not 
to blame. We are good, and kind, and loving, 
and we never burl any body. Ob, I wish some¬ 
body would love us; I should be so happy.” 
“And we are loved, Nancy. Only think of 
our noble mother. Who could love us as she 
does?” 
“ I know—I know, Nelly; but that ain’t all. 
Why don't papa love us as he used to do? 
Don’t you remember when be used to kiss us 
and made us so happy? Oh, how I wish he 
could be so good to us once more. He is not—” 
“—eh, sissy! don’t say anything more. He 
may be good to us again; if he knew how we 
loved him, I know he would. And then I 
believe God is good, and surely he will help us 
sometime, for mother prays to him every day.” 
“ Yes,” answered Nancy, “ I know she does; 
and God must be our Father sometime.” 
“ He is our Father now, sissy.” 
“ I know it, and he must be all we shall have 
hy-and-by, for don’t you remember that mother 
told us that she might leave us one of these 
days? She said a cold dagger was upon her 
heart, and—and—” 
“ —sh! Don’t, don’t Nancy, you’ll—” 
The words were choked up with sobs and 
tears, and the sisters wept long together. At 
length they arose and went away, for they saw 
more children coming. 
As soon as the little ones were out of sight, 
Charles Nelson started to his feet. His hands 
were clenched, his eyes were fixed upon a va¬ 
cant poini with an eager gaze. 
“My God!” he gasped. “ what a villain I am! 
Look at me now! What a state I am in, and 
what I have sacrificed to bring myself to it! 
And they love me yet, and pray for me!” 
He said no more, but for a few moments be 
stood with his hands still clenched, and his eyes 
fixed. At length his gaze was turned upward, 
and his clasped hands were raised above hi 9 
head. A moment he remained so, and then his 
Lands dropped by his side, and he started home¬ 
ward. 
When he reached his home he found his wife 
and children in tears, but be affected to notice 
it not. Hs drew a shilling from his pocket—it 
was his last—and handing it to his wife, he 
asked her if she would send and get him some 
porridge. The wife was startled by the tone in 
which this was spoken, for it sounded as in days 
gone by. 
, The porridge was made nice and nourishing, 
and Charles ate it all. He went to bed early, 
and early on the following day be was up. He 
asked his wife if she had milk and flour enough • 
w 
to make him another bowl of porridge. 1 
“Yes, Charles,” she said, “we have not 1 
touched it.” 
“ Then, if you are willing, I should like some 
more.” 1 
The wife moved quickly about the work, and i 
ere long the food was prepared. The husband 1 
ate it, aud be felt better, lie washed and 1 
dressed, and would have shaved had his hand 
been steady enough. He left his home and went < 
at once to a man who had just commenced to 1 
frame a house. i 
“Mr. Manly,” he said, addressing tbe man f 
alluded to, “I have drank the last drop of alco- t 
hoiic beverage that ever passes my lips. Ask 1 
no more questions, hut believe me now while 
you see me true. Will you give me work ?” 1 
“ Charles Nelsou, are you in earnest?” asked i 
Manly in surprise. s 
“ So much so, sir, that were death to stand t 
upon my right hand, and yonder bar-room upon c 
my left, I would go with the grim messenger s 
first.” 
“ Then here is my house lying about us in 
rough timber aud boards. I place it all in your [ 
hands, and shall look to you to finish it. While a 
I can trust you, you can trust me. Come into ( 
my office, and you shall see the plan I have j 
drawn.” :

“Mary,” he whispered, while tbe t-ars ran 
down his own cheek-, “you are not deceived. 
1 am Charley Nelson once more, and will be 
while I live. Not by any act of mine shall 
another cloud cross your brow.” And then he 
told her of the words he had hoard the previous 
Monday, while he lay behind the wali. 
“ Never before,” he said, “ did I fully realize 
how low I had fallen, but the scales dropped 
from my eyes then as though some one had 
struck them off with a sledge. My soul started 
up to a stand-point from which all tlje tempests 
of earth can not move it. Your prayers are 
answered, my wife." 
Time passed on, and the cottage assumed its 
garb of pure white, and its whole windows and 
green blinds. The roses in the garden smiled, 
and in every way did the improvement work. 
Once again was Mary Nelson among the hap¬ 
piest of the happy, and her children choose 
their own associates now.
