The IrRcr Life.

49, BY s. n. LLOYD. 80
Hhs oatward World that round as lies,
IL not the World in which we dwell:
The InnerWor alone is real
Tho world we neither buy nor sell,
I'm master Of all outward things;
Within my soul take my seat,
And nature comes in perfumed robes
And lays her treasures at my feet
AL things have within myself
Guns set and suns within me rise;
live within bright palace walls,
Arehed Ger by lovely jewerd skies;
some AMI go, wandering bee
That roams each aowery-scent.d field,
And treasures up the golden fruit,
My daily thoughts and pastinss yield.
lock at things not as they seem;
In all | see the Fathers face;
An natureis part of him
The bending sky is his embrace,
His breath embalms the dawy flowers.
He makes the sun his triumph e.r,
His voice hear in every breeze,
His smile | see in every star,
He builds his alter every where,
On every heart His dews distill,
His heaven is with the pure in heart,
Its temple-gates the human will.
Turn away from beaten paths,
Where trade and politics deceiv 9,
And love to roam each wood and glen,
And feel my breast with rapture heave;
The world wants not that which have,
But still love the inner Life
And nought can tempt my heart away
To mingle with its scenes of strife;
For deep within have vein
More rich than gold that veins the earth,
And deep within are loving thoughts
That give to joy and trust their birth;
That inner World, o be it mine,
And mine to trend each sacred hall,
Ts enter in its silent courts
AMI lknow the perfect Soul of All.

there, went to the store of real live Yam

EiFE3esS,

Man should be lirm-woman should be
frm-oll our decisions and doings should
show frmness and reason: What can we
effect by trlning vibrating course! Does
any one know OF man who becnme rich
or happy, on account of there being no de-
rendence to be placed in him? We presume
not. Firm pcss Of character carries man
through the world easily, and MAJ kes him
respected by all, gains for him good
name, and sheds around him innumerable
blessings. Wilhout it he is despised by his
rrien ds, led into thousand suores by his
enemies, eIticed from virtue by those we
least suspect, and finally may commit
crimes for want Of tirmnoss to resist the
allurements OF vice.
Firmness Of character stamps the image
of man with something more than animal
1t raises him above the grove]ling earth, a.

bove all petty feelings of the heart. 1t is

A Few WORDS FOR CHlLDREN.-You
were made to be kind, generous and mag
unanimous. II there is boy in the school
who has a club foot don't let him know
that you ever saw it. If there is boy
with ragged clothes don't talk about rags
when he is in hearing. If there is lame
boy, assign him some part of the game
which does not require running. there
is a hungry one, give him part OF your din
ner. Iflhere is dull one, e,help him to get
his lesson. If there is a bright one, be not
enyious of him; for if one boy is proud of
his talents and another is envious Of them
there ase two wrongs, and no more talent
than bofore If q larger boy has injured
you, and is sorry for it, forgive him, nnc
ask the teacher not to punish him. The
whole school will show by their counten-
ance how much better it is to have a great
soul than a great fist.
