CHASING SHADOWS AND CATCHING
.Ll------ IT OIIDS IL 40

Some of the older juvenile readers OF the
Youths Instructor, doubtless, sometimes have
their thoughts directed TO the subject of what
follows; and the reading of it may afford them
some valuable hints, when they are about decid-
ing upon choice, which is to have most i'm
portant influence upon them through life.
A young man meets pretty face in the ball
ROOM falls in love with it, courts it, marries,'
goes to housekeeping with it, and boasts of hav-
inc a home to 90 to, and WIFE The chances
are nine to ten he has neither Her pretty face
gets to be an old story-or becomes faded, or
freckled, or fretted-and, as that face was all he
wanted, all he "paid attention to- all he sat up
with, all he bargained for, all he swore TO" love
honor and protect" he gets sick of his trade !;
knows dozen faces he likes better; and gives
up staying at home evenings; consoles himself
with cigars and oysters, whiskey-punch, and pol
tiles, and looks upon his home as a very indiffer-
ent boarding house. family of children grow
about him; but neither he nor his fair face"
knows anything about teaching them; SO they
come up r.skelter-made toys of when ba-
bies, dolls when boys and girls, drudges when
men and women; and so passes year after year,
and not one quiet, happy, homely hour is known
throughout the whole household Another
Young man becomes enamored of "fortune"
He waits upon it to parties, dances the Polka
with it, exchanges billet dour with it, pops the
question to it, gets eyes" from it, is published
to it, goes to the parsons with it, calls it" wife"
carries it home, sets up an establishment with it
introduces it to his friends, and says (poor fell
lowD that he, too, is married, and has home.
It's false. He is not married he has got no
home; and he soon finds it out. He's in the
wrong box; but it's too late to get out of it;
he might as well hope to escape from his coffin.
Friends congratulate him, and he has to grin and
bear it. They praise the house, the furniture,
the cradle, the new Bible, the newer baby; and
then bid the fortune and him who "hus-
bands" it good morning. As if he had known
good morning since he and that gded for
tune" were declared to be one. Take another
case A young woman is smitten with pair
of whiskers. Curled hair never before had such
charms. She sets her cap for Them they take.
The delighted whiskers make an offer, first one
and then the other, proffering themselves both
in exchange for one heart. The dear Miss is
overcome with magnanimity, closes the bargain,
carries home her prize, shows it to her pa and
ma, calls herself engaged to it, thinks there was
never such pair (of whiskers) before, and in
few weeks they are married. Married. Yes,
the world calls them so, and we will What is
the result? A short honey moon, and then the
unlucky discovery that they are as unlike as
chalk and new cheese, and not to be made one,
though all the ministers in Christendom pro-
nounced them So Youths Instructor.

LITTLE AND MUCH KNOWLEDGE Washington
Irving, gifted American writer, says it is with
knowledge as it in swimming. The one who
cannot swim much, splashes near the shore,
makes more noise, attracts more attention, than
he who goes off into deep water, dives and
brings up pearls and treasures from the bottom
So those who have but little knowledge make
great noise in Boosting of what they have, and
in various attempts to show off to advantage !;
while the truly learned are modest, unassuming,
and seeking how to be useful Let all drink
deep at the fountain of Science If possible.

YOUNG CATTLE IN WNTER.-The American
Farmer recommends the following treatment to
young cattle generally, in winter, which is judi
cious, and squares with the practical mind Oft
editor of that valuable agricultural journal:
GAIL young cattle should have provided for
them comfortable sheds, facing the south, or the
southeast, the floor of which should be e!eva-
ted an inch or so above the level of the enclo
sure into which the sheds open-the sheds
should be well protected upon the north and
west, should be deep enough when aided by a
projecting roof, to keep off drifting rains-the
stalls should be provided with bedding, and
kept clean and the animals themselves would
be all the better for curryng and combng, and
rubbing down with straw. They should be fed
three times day with long provender, and re-
ceive once q day moderate feed of grain Of
some kind, or mixture Of cob-meal or bran, and
cut straw. If good size is desirable, all young
cattle should be so fed as that the food given
would contain the materials out Of which bones
fat muscles, and tendons are to be fabricated
for without the necessary substances be pres
ent in the food for such purposes, we do not
conceive how they are ever to be formed. The
idea of ever raising fine animal upon half or
quarter allowance of food in our humble judg-
ment, is entirely out of the question Young
cattle should always be kept in good heart, in
good growing condition, neither very fat, nor
very poor. They should receive the allowance
of salt, or salt-lime and ashes, recommended
for milch cows-say in about one-half or three
fourths the quantity, according to age.
