hin Of life. Others, too, by a course Of
proAigacy and vice, have drained to the
very dregs their parents cup of happi-
ness, and made them anxious for death
to release them Of their sulierings. .
how fearful must be the doom OF those
children who have thus embttered the
lives Of their honored parents |! IL there
is ga world Of woe" beyond the pr lecincls
ot the tomb, surely they cannot escape
its horrors.
There can be no happier reflection
than that derived from the thought Of
having contributed all in our power to
the coInlort and happiness Of our fathers
and mothers. When called away from
our presence, as sooner or later they
may be, the thought will be sweet, that
our efforts and our care smoothed their
decline of life, so that they departed in
comfort aud peace. II it were other
wise if we denied them what their cir
cumstauces or necessities required, and
our hearts were not like the neither mill
stone, it must prove a thorn in our flesh to
sprinkle our days with sorrow and regret.
Ye who are blcst with parents, now,
be careful of your treatment to them
Receive mildly their reprools, listen to
their counsels and obey them. Ii they
are aged, and their "days have dwinded
to the shortest span," think no care too
great for you I" bestow upon them, no
money foollshly spent that will purchase
their comfort, and no time thrown away
that is devoted to their happiness. -
Honor, respect, and love them. Spare
no effort in their behalf, and do nothing
that will give them pain, or g,ieve them
in the least. Your own offspring will
honor you, you will be respected where
ever you are known, and gain the appro-
button of iIeayen.-Porilmd Tribune.

Respect to aged parents we consider
one of the greatest virtues. There is no
period in life, when our fathers and
mothers do not claim our attention, our
love and our warmest affections. From
youth to manhood, from middle age to
r,per years, If our honored parents sur
yiye, il should be our constant study
how we can best promote their welfare
aud happiness, and smooth the pillow OF
,hoir declining years. Nothing better
recommends an individual than this at
,rnlion to his parents. Permitting them
10 share in his prosperity and his honors,
without burdcning them with his per-
plexilles and trials, it is a mark OF true al
leciion and will be source OF consola-
ion through life. There are such dutiuI
children; men whose highest ambition
seems to be the promotion OF the happi
ness Of their fathers and mothers. They
watch over them with unwearied care
supply them with all their wants, and by
their attention and kindness remove al
care and sorrow from their hearts. Or
the contrary, there are others who seen
