The proverbial oracles Of our parsimoni

waste Of fortune is by small expenses, by
the profusion Of sums too little singly TO

same kind is prodigality Of life: he that
hopes 10 look back hereafter with satisIac-

the present value OF single minutes, and en-
deayor TO let no particle OF time fall useless
TO the ground. An italian philosopher ex-
pressed in his motto that time was his es-

nothing without cultivation, but will ALWAYS

We find in late sermon of Theodore
Parker, the following story. The subject Of
the discourse is rest
They tell story that one day Rabbi yu-
dab and his brethren, the seven pillars OF
wisdom, sat in the Court of the Temple on
ieasiday disputing about rest. One said that
il was to have attained sufficient wealth, vet
without sin. The second, that il was fame
and praise OF all men. The third, thar it
was the possession Of power to rule the
state. The fourth, that il consisted only of
a happy home. The fifth, that il must only
be in the old age Of one who is rich, pow
erful. famous, surrounded by children and
children's children. The sixth said that all
were vain unless a man keep all the ritual
law Of Moses. And Rabbi Judah, the ven.
cradle, the tallest Of the brothers, said, 'Ye
have spoken wisely, but one thing more is
necessary, he can only find rest, who to all
these things addeth this-that he keepeth tine

playing with lilies in his lap, and hearing
the talk, dropped them in astonishment from
his hands. and looked up---that boy of
iwelve-and said-'Nay, nay, fathers, he
only loveth rest, who loves his brother ms
himself, and God with his whole heart and
soul. He is greater than fame, and wealth,
and power happier than happy home
without il, better than honored age, he
is a law to himself, and above all tradi-
Iion. The doctors were astonished. They
said-when Christ cometh, shall he tell us

At a time when the gentlemen OF France
are asserting the 'Righis Of Man." no won
der the ladies are protesting against the
"Wrongs Of Woman" Amongst the many
Clubs. which the temporary triumph Of
Club-law has engendered in Paris, there was
lately opened "Club des Femmes.'' AT
its first sitting much confusion was created
by the criticisms OF number OF the Lords
OF the Creation, who had intruded them
selves upon the assemblsge. This is un-
fair. What would be the result if a corps
OF ladies' was let loose to criticise the House
OF Commons? The "Club des Femnes."
has promulgated the following
CODE OF RIGHTS.
/. Woman naturally is superior to man.
The rule OF the husband by the wife is in
the order of nature.
2. The wife is the natural guardian Of
her husbands secrets.
3. To the wife belongs the absolute con.
troll OF her own millinens' bills.
4. The extreme age Of woman is thirty
years. She may be below this age, but
cannon pass beyond II.
4. Woman has right 10 her opinions.
II is an odious tyranny which enforces the
reasons of them.
CODE OF DUTIES.
l. 1t is the duty of woman to insist ON
her own way. This duty is paramount.
The end juStifes the means.
2. Ii is the duty Of the wife to love and
honor her husband. The word "obey" is
abolished except as duty of husbands.
8. 1t is the duty Of every woman TO SET
of those advantages with which Nature has
provided her. Dress is thus invested with
the sanctity OF religious observance.
4. The human species IS the only one
which clothes itself, amuses ITSELF and cooks
It's food. Woman, is the highest being in
the scale Of the human species, has ex-
elusive sovereignty in the three domains Of
the Table, the Toilet and Society.
PROJECTS OF Laws.
l. A law rendering it penal in husbands
to grumble at cold meat.
|. A law imposing various terms of i'm
Prlsonment on the husband who COMPLAINS
OF deficiency Of shirt-bultons, struggles
for the last word, or exhibits impotence
while his wife is dressing.
5. A law to constitute and punish the Of
ienee Of Lezemarriage, or conjugal treason,
of which shall be adjudged guilty,
Every husband found in possession Of a
!atch-key, without written permission Of his
wife:
Every husband bringing home friends to
dinner, without notice Of at least twenty
Tour hours; and an adjudication thereon by
the proper authority!
Every husband paying attention to any
other woman in the presence of his wife:
Every husband convicted Of smoking, UNI
less when the wife smokes also.-Psolck,

The months we used to read of
Have come TO us again,
With cheefnlness and sunniness
And rare delights Of rain;
The lark is up, and says aloud,
East and west | see no cloud.
The lanes are full Of roses,
The fields are grassy deep;
The leafness and floweriness ~
Make one abundant heap;
The balmy, blossom-breathing airs
Smell Of future plums and pears.

any local investigation will throw a light
on an obscure passage in Heredotus that has

is the aspiring Young architect, who walks
through the ruins of the ancient world,
armed with measuring tape, and Judges oil

he thought Of certain temple, and he tells
you the diameter and circumference of It's
columns. But OF the soul, or spiritual
meaning Of such structure--the motive that
animated its builders, or the idea which was

than the lizards that play about its ruins.

BRANDRETII'S PILLS.

BE UNPREJUDlCED.-L no foolish per-
sons be so preiudiced against this now truly eel
ebroted medicine as to despise this advice; let
it be used Immediately on pain being felt! no
matter where it may be, whether in the head or
feet, whether il be in the neck or abdomen, whe-
ther arising from external or internal cause, use
the Brandreth's Pills, and rely upon it, that the
pain will go, the body will be restored to health
as soon as nature has received sufficient assis.
tance from their effect.
The quantity of impure humours discharged
from The body by the action of the Brandrelh's s
Pills, is replaced in the course Of few hours
with new and pure blood, by the digestion of a
moderate meal. BY purging the body with this
medicine theswhole mass Of blood becomes en-
tirely purified and regenerated.
That blood is the life of the body, presume
is undisputed, therefore shall say that it being
the SEAT of LIFE, it must also be the seat of dis
ease. If disease be in the blood, we should ab-
stract the disease only, not the blood. 1t is the
impurities which must be removed by purgalion
TO secure our health, in all states Of the wealth
er, in all situations, and in all climates. The
blood, like good spirit, is always trying to ben
eft the body by lis struggles TO expel impurities.
But it is not capable to effect its own purifcation
at all times TO do this it must often have assis-
lance. When the blood is loaded with impuri-
ties, especially in this climate, the consequent
ces may be fatal, provided the blood is not Puri-
fled at once, and this is sure to be effected if
