KEEP YOUNG There is no su.er de-
s,royer of youth, of youths privileges. and
powers, and delights, than yielding the
spirit to the empire Of iltemper and selfish
ness We should all be cautious, as we ad-
vance in life, of allowing occasional sorrow
ful experience to overshadow our percep-
ton of the preponderances Of good.
Faith in good is at once its own rec,ilude
and reward. To believe good, and to do
good truly and truslluly, is the hesllhes,
of humaniiy's conditions. To take events
cheerluly, and promote the happiness of
others, is the way to insure the enduring
spring of existence.
Content and kindness are the soft vernal
showers and fostering sunny warmth that
keep mans nature and being fresh and
green. If we would leave gracious me-
mory behind US, there is no way better to
secure it than by living grsciously. A
cheerful and benign temper, ,ha. buds forth
pleasant blossoms, and bears sweet fruit for
these who live within lis influence, is sure
to produce an undying growth Of green re-
membranes that shall flourish imm ortally

ToBAcco-sEED OLA British resident
in Russia, who is member Of the imperial
Geographical Society of that country, and
gardener to his Excellency, Gen. Vsevolodj-
sky, near K'zlor, has found by experiment,
that the seed Of The tobacco plan, contains
about fifteen per cent, of an oil that has SUI
perior desiccalive qualities, which may be
employed with advantage in paints and var
nishes. The process of extraction is said
to be simple and easy, requiring only re-
duclon of the seed to powder, which is to be
kneaded into stiff paste, with sufficient
qusni.y of ho. water. The oil, when ex-
pressed, is exposed to a moderate heat,
which, coagulssing the vegetable albumen OF
the seed, precipi.ases all the impurities to
the bottom of the vessel, leaveing the oil in
perfectly clear and limpid stale.
