HOOD ON HEALTH.

Tom Hood gives the following capital adj
vice on health flake precious care ofyour
precious health--but how, as the housewife
says, to make it keep? Why, then, don't
cure and smoke dry tor pickle it in ever
lasting acids, like the Germans Don't bury
it in potato-pit, like the Irish. Don't pre-
serve it in spirits, like the barbarians. Don't
salt it down like the Ncwfoundlanders.-
Don't pack it in ice, like Captain Back
Don't parboil it like gooseberries Don't pot
and don't hang it. A rope is bad "cor-
don sanitare." Above all, don't despond
about it. Let not anxiety have "thee on
the hip" Consider your health as your best
friend, and think as well of it in spite of all
its foibles, as you can. For instance, never
dream, though you may have ''clever hack
Of galloping consumption, or indulge in the
belief that you a-e going the pace. Never
fancy every time you cough, you are going to
coughy-pot. Hold up, as the shooter says,
over the toughest ground Dependency in
nice case, is the overweight that you may
kick the beam and tho bucket both at once.
In short, as with other cases, never meet
trouble half way, but let him have the whole
walk for his pains, thcugh it should be a
Scotch mile and bittock. I have ever
known him to give up his visit in sight of the
house. Besides, the best fence against care
is ha ha wherefore take care to have one
around you whenever you can. Let your
sslungs crow like chanticleer," and as like a
game-cock as possible. Itexpands the chest,
enlarges the heart, quickens the circulation,
and 'slike trumpetmake the spirit dance y

How seldom we think Of the dead. Al
though we sit around the same hearth where
once they sat, and read from the same volume
they loved to rerusc, yet we think not oftbem.
0, how tie heart throbs with wild, uncon-
trollable emotion, as we stand beside tho dy-
ing friend we have dearly loved. We try
without effect, to prolong the precious life ;
we follow down to the margin Of the dark
flowing river; the spirit Of the loved one pas
ses onward alone, and we are left to linger on
the shores Of time.
We think as we lay the iuanimate form In
the cold grave, aud the damp Garth CRATES
barsbly over it, that we will ncrer forget !;
that the life scenes shall ever be fresh TO our
memory and even wonder that the busy null
titude can still move on as before
The sun shines as brightly on the new mado
grave. Again we minglc with She busy ,jost-
ling throng Weeks and months roll on--wo
visit the graves less Frequently we cease q
think Of the lost one. save when SOME incident
Of by gone days recalls to our memory.

is between the ages Of 16 and 20, they re-
greet bitterly the loss when they como to feel
themselves inferior in knowledge to almost
every one they converse with; and above all
if they should ever be mothers, when they feel
their inability to direct or assist the pursuits
Of their children. they find ignorance severe

their industry. and let modest opinion Of
their capacities be an encouragement to them
in their endeayors after Knowledge. A mod

that SO many women are such triaing insipid
companions, 80 i'll qualified for the friendship

task Of governing and instructing a family !;
it is often from the neglect Of exercising the
talents which they really have, and from omit

neither fortune nor age can deprive them, and

You may trace his footsteps now,
On the naked woods and blasted fields,
And the brown hills withered brow.
He has smitten the leaves of the grey old trees,
Where the pleasant dream came forth,
And the winds that follow wherever he goes,
Have shaken them down to the earth
He comes, he comes-the Frost King comesi
From the frozen Labrador
From the icy bridge of the northern seas,
Where the white bear wanders o'er
Where the fshernan's sail is stiff with ice,
And the luckless forms below,
In the sunless cold Of the atmosphere
Into marble statues grow
He comes, he comes--the Frost Spirit comes
And the quiet lakes shall feel
The torpid touch of his glazing breath,
And ring of the skaters heel,
And the streams which danced on the broken rock
Or sang to the leaning grass,
Shall bow again to the winter chain,
And in mournful silence pass.
He comes, he comes-the Frost Spirit comes
Let us meet him as we may,
And turn with light of the parlor CRATE
His evil power away;
And gather closer the circle round
When the freight dances high,
And laugh at the shrek of the baffed fend,
As his sounding wings go BY
