A good woman never grows old. Years
may pass over her head, but if b~enevolence
and virtue, dwell. in her. heart, she is as
cheerful as when the spring Of life 6tst
opened to her view. When We look upon q
good woman we never think other age; she
looks as charming al, when the rose ofyouth
bIoomed on her cheek. That rose has not
faded yet; il will never fade. In her family
she is the life and delight. ; In her neigh
borhood she is the friend,and benefactor.-
In the church, the devout worshipper and
the exemplary christian. Who does netre-
|spect and love the woman who has passed
her days in acts Of kindness md mercy; who
has been the friend Of man and God; whose
whole life has BEEN q scene Of kindness and
love, Q devotion to trutb and religion? We
snch a woman cannot grow old
She will slwsys be fresh and buoyant IN
spirits, and active in humble deeds of mer-
|cy and benevolence. If the young lady de-

OUR CARES ARE BLESSINGS.

There are few who have not many cares:
few who do not complain of them. But
who is better forbeing without care ? That
parent is very unwise, who anticipates eve
|ry desire, and removes every source Of care
that may be in his child's way. It were far
better TO teach him to moderate his. desires,
and to labor diligently for himself and the
welfare of those around him. s-H
Care sobers the mind, and makes it fa-
|miIiar with the realities and responsibilities
Iof life. Care moderates levity, and tends
to check the tendencies to recklessness.-
The man who hassbusiness which requires
constant attention, and is faithful in giving
it the regard TO which it is entitled, is kept
in a state Of mind favourable to moral and
religious culture. The responsibilities which
rest on him are designed TO make him
thoughtful and serious, and to retain him
from maynard and evil tendencies. The
slightest observation will show that the In
.dustrious class of society, both among the
rich and the poor, are the most ~virtuous, and
are society's pillars and ornaments. @
There may be such a thing, no doubt, as
too much care. Iron constitutions have
been broken, and premature old age, or ear
ly death, have been induced by tasking the
body and mind beyond the limits Of mortal
endurance. But 9 proper measure Of life's
cares is blessing. The burden which they
impose may bend the frame, but the exer-
ton which it makes in bearing it will pros
mote health and sigor. g They msy write
wrinkles on the brow {; but they also in
scribe peace and b~enevolence on the heart.

kords Of Kindness will impart
A healing to the wounded heart;
And though the tear doth fill the eye.
There's comfort left when love is nigh.
'Tis sweet to mingle signs and tears,
With those whom we have loved for years ;
And sweeter still with them to share,
Life's joys unmixed with pain and care.
The joys Of life! oh, they abound
Like flowers upon a fertile ground, #
When cultured well and nursed with care
A beauteous sight, a prospect fair.
, IT'S only those who win not raise
Their eyes from earth, to upward gaze,
Who cannot see the heaven above
The thousand blessings sent in love.
While we recount our mercies DER,
The treasures rich we have in store,
They multiply, increasing fast,
Like rain-drops on the ocean cast.
Then upward turn the eyeto Heaven,
Where endless joys are freely given;
There may beloved ones meet again;
Released from every care and pain:
