THE MOTHER.

A writer beautifully remlrks that a
mans mother is the representative of
his Maker. Misfortune, and even
crime, set up no barriers between her
and her son. While his mother lives,
he will have one friend on the earth
who will not listen when he is SANDER.
ed, who will not desert him when he
suffers, who will soothe him in his sor.
rows, and speak TO him of hope when
he is ready TO despair. Her affection
knows no ebbing tide. 1t flows on
from a pure fountain, and speaks hap,
piness through The vail of tears, and
ceases only al the ocean of eternity.
Don't say you will become rich until
YOU have asked your wife. Of all spend
thrifts that nature ever invented, a
thoughiless women is the most so. We
care not how much money man may
make, if his wife does not second his
endeavors, he is just as sure of dying
poor as if he had kept a grocery store
and trusted every body.

THE THREE HOMES.

"Where is thy home" | asked child
Who in the morning air,
Was twining flowers most sweet and wild
In garIands for her hair;
my home," the heppy hear, replied,
And smiled in childless glee,
"ls on the sunny mountain side,
Where soft winds wander free."
Oh! blessings fall on arles, youth,
And all its rosy hours,
When every word is Joy and truth.
And treasures live in flowers!
"Where is thy homer" asked Of one
Who bent with blushing face,
To hear a warriors tender tone
In the wildwood's secret place;
She spoke not, but her varying cheek
The tale might well impalt,
The home Of her young spirit meek
Was in kindred heart.
Ali souls that well might soar above
To earth will fondly cling,
And build their hopes on human love,
Tha, light and fIogile thlng
"Where is thy home, thou lonely MANI
.. asked the pilgrim grey,
Who came, with furrow'd brow. end wan,
Slow musing on his way;
lie paused, and with solemn men
Upturned his holy eyes,
1.-THE land seek thou meier hast seen,
My home is in the skies!" .-..
o! blest-lhrice blesll the earl must be
To whom such thoughts are given;
That walks from worldly letters free,
It's only home is Heaven!
