We confess ourselves idolators of this Ii
brary religion and are grateful for the
blest ministry of books 1t is = kind of
heathenism which needs no missionary
funds, no Bible even to abolish it; for
the bible itself caps the peak of this new
Olympus, and crowns it with subimty
and glory. Among the many things we
have to be thankful for, as the result of
modern discoveries, surely this of print
ed books Is the highest of all one can
never think Of the name of Gottenberg
without feeling of veneration and homage
We no longer wonder, with this and
other instances before US, why In the old
days of reverence and worship. the saints
and benefactors of mankind were exalted
into kind of demi-gods, and had worship
rendered to their tombs and memories tor

most touching of all human generosities.

a double immortality ? The birth of this
person was an era in the worlds history

Christ The dawn of printing was the
outburst of a new revolution. which in

We sometimes amuse ourselves by com

could be satisfied to kill it as they did -

Waiting for q Guest.

Nothing, perhaps, is more annoying to
host who has invited dinner party than TO
have to wait for one Of his guests, especially
If that guest be a person Of more than ordi-
~ pretensions. And not only is the gener-
Gus entertainer rendered impatient al perceiv-
ing how fast the piquancy and favor Of his
costly dishes are wasting away, but he has
also the modification of seeing, in the half
suppressed irritabiity which rest upon eoun-
tenances Of those who have attended punctu-
ally, plain manifestations that the warmth Of
his meats is being diffused through the tenn
per and conversation Of his guests. II would
be well for diners out, especially for literary
lions, who are commonly supposed 10 bo
somewhat tender TO pungent criticisms, to
bear in mind the knowing remark Of cele-
brated French wit, who was asked why he
was SO particular in coming early when inrit-
ed out to dine. Because" said he, 81 have
frequently noticed that the faults of one who
is waited for, invariably present themselves
to those who wait for him."

AbSlemiOuS Diet.

Many cases of illness, both in adults
aud children. NAV be readily cured By alb
stiueuce from all food Headaches, disnr-
dered stomachs and many other attacks
are often caused by violating the rules Of
health. and. in consequence, some parts of
the system are overloaded. or some Of the
organs are clogged Omitting one. two
or three meals as the case may be. gives
the system a chance to rest and allow the
clogged organs to dispose of their burdens
The practice Of giving drugs to clear the
stomach, though it may afford the needed
temporary relief. always weakens the sys
TEN, while abstinence secures the good
result without doing any injury.

when you have a turn of headache or 9TH

"Go without my supper
But if that does not cure you, what

Go without my breakfast We physi-
clans seldom take medicines ourselves. or
use them in our families, for we know that
abstinence is better. but we cannot make
our patients believe it"
Many cases of slight indisposition are
cured by change of diet, Thus if per

Interesting agricultural Experiments.

fact that the same weight of the southern

THE EXCELLENCE OF LABOR.
BY NJ 6. b. sHISDEH.


Oh laborer bending DER thy toll,
With earnest heart and moistened brow,
Thy work is holy; liles turmoil
Is full Of meaning, even now.
Grieve not that It's thy fate to earn
By labor hard iay daily bread
All when will man thy lesson learn,
On natures every page outspread;
That all must labor all must bow
To heavens stern. vet wise decree,
And earn each joy with moistened brow!
For id,eness Is misery.
Say is the rich man happy. who,
Though gratifying every sense,
To nature holiest law untrue,
Spends all his lite in lndolence
Co, gaze upan his care-worn :aoe.
And catch his eye so cold and DIN;
Each discoEtented feature there,
And tell me if You envy him
No no they only can be blest
Who faithfully, while here they stay,
Fulfilling heavens high behest.
Toll patiently from day to day.
Then labor on thou child of toll
Work with thy hlnds-thy head-thy heart
Mans glorious destiny fulfill,
It's purest zest TO life impart.
And when each evening hour shall come,
Oh with what uualloyed delight
Mayst thou enjoy thy peaceful home,
And sounIIy sleep the liveIong night.
Yes, honest 'abor gives 10 rest
What neither wealth nor power can give
The conscience pure, the quiet breast,
Tired nature : best restorative.
All hail 10 HIM who understands
And does The work he finds TO do;
But woe TO those who fold their hands
To God and to themselves untrue!
