Physical Benefits of the Sab
= p'4titLll bath.

The Sabbath is Gods special present
to the workingman, and one of its chic
objects is to prolong his life. and preserve
efficient his working tone. In the vital
system it acts like a compensation pond
IT repenishes the spirit, the elasticity
and vigor which the last six days have
drained away, and supplies the force
which is to fill the six days succeeding
and, in the economy of existence, it an
swers the same purpose as, in the econ
omy Of income, is answered by a savings
bank.
Z The frugal man, who puts aside a
pound TO day and another next month, and
who 10 quiet way is always putting
away his stated pound, from time to time
when he grows old and frail, gets not only
the same pounds back again, bat good
many pounds beside. BGT
AND the conscientious man, who hus-
bands one day Of his existence every
week-who, instead of allowing the Sab
bath to be trampled and torn in the hurry
and scramble of life, treasures it devoutlv
up-the lord Of the Sabbath keeps it for
him, and in the length of days and hale
old age, gives It back with usury. The
savings bank of human existence is the
weekly Sabbath. .l '..r. ..

Good Manners.

g It has been said that, mans manners
form his fortune. Whether this be really
so or not, it is certain that his manners
form his reputation, stamp upon him, as
it were, his current worth in the circles
where be moves. If his manners are the
products Of a kind heart, they will please,
though they may be destitute of graceful
polish. There is scarcely any thing OF
more importance to child Of either sex,
than good breeding. Ifparcnts and teach
ers perform their duties to the young,
faithfully, there will be comparatively few
destitute of good manners. e ot ...H
y Go into family where the parents
are civil and courteous towards each
other, and towards all within their house
hold, whether as jewellers or guests, and
their children will learn good manners
just as they learn TO talk, from imitation.
But reverse this order of things concern
ing parents, and the children learn i'll
manners, just as in the former case, they
learned good manners, by imitation.
GRANDCHILDREN TO beha We at home as you
would have them act when abroad 1t is
almost certain, that they will, while chill
dren, conduct themselves when abroad as
they have been in the habit of doing UNI
der like circumstances, when at home
Re Courteous is an apostolic injunction
which all should ever remember and
obey. Then would good manners be the
common inheritance of mankind.

That binds your youthful heart, hs
Ills one that only Truth should weave,
And death can only part. -i5

The home of ripper years,
The treasured scenes of early youth,
In sunshine and in tears

All these and more she now resigns,
To brave the world with thee.
Her lot in life is fixed with thine, Gti q"

And well known twill be her pride,
To soothe each sorrow there.

And may your days glide swiftly on
