Short Sermon on Money.

My hearers-this is not only great but
mysterious world that we live in and pay rent
for. All dIscord is harmony all evil is good;
all despotism is right-ior, as Alexander Pope
says, whatever is, is right except the left
boot. and wanting to borrow money. You
may want sense, and the world won't blame
you for it. 1t would gladly furnish you with
the article, had it any to spare, but unluckily
it has hardly enough for home consumption.
However, if you lack sense, you are well
enough off, after all for if you commit falr
pas. as the French say, you are let go with
the compliment, poor fool, he does not know
any better. The truth is, great deal of
brains is great deal of botheration. An
empty skull is bound to shine in company be-
cause the proprietor of it hasn't wit enough to
know that there is possibility of making
nincompoop of himself, and therefore he DASH
es ahead, hit or miss, and generally succeeds
beyond exxectation. Let man be minus and
plus brass, and he is sure TO pass through the
world as if he was CREASED from ear to ankle
but rig up for him complete machinery of
thought, and it is as much as he can do to attend
to it. He goes TO the grave, ruffied and tum-
bled, curses life for its cares, and moseys into
eternity pacS-saddled with mental misery.
o. for the happiness of fools.

Winter.

Where in the whole range of poetic litera
ture, is there picture of Winter and Famine
more graphic than this from Longfellow'
'Hiawatha J"
o, the long and dreary Winter
O,,the cold and cruel Winter!
Ever thicker. thicker. thicker
Froze the ice on lake and river,
Ever deeper, deeper, deeper
Fell the snow over the landscape.
Fell the covering snow, and drifted
Through the forest round the village.
Hardly from his buried wigwam
Could the hunter force passage,
With his mittens and his snow-shoes
Vainly wslked he through the forest.
Sought for bird or beast, and found none,
Saw no track of deer or rabbit,
In the snow beheld no footprints,
In the CHASTITY cleaning forest
Fell, and could not rise from weakness,
Perished there from cold and hunger.
0, the famine and the fever!i
o, the wasting of the famine
o, the blasting of the fever!
o, the wailing of the children!
o, the anguish of the women
All the earth was sick and famished;
Hungry was the air around them,
Hungry was the sky above them,
And the hungry stars in heaven
Like the eyes of wolves glared at them

Prayer was moi invented it was born with
the first sorrow Of the human heart; or, rather,
man was born TO pray 10 Rlorify God, or 10
implore him, was his only mission here below !;
all else perishes before or with him; but the
cry Of glory or alteration, or of love which he
raises towards the Creator, does not perish on
his passing from the earth; it re-ascends, from
age to age, 10 the ear Of the Almighty, like
the reflection Of his own magni6cence. 1t is
the only thing 10 man which is wholly divine,
and which he can exhale with joy and pride is
homage to Him 10 whom homage alune is due

TRANsPosITIoN OF FIGURE NINE.-The
numeral nine has certain peculiar property,
knowledge of which will be of importance to
accountants and cash keepers. 1t is this =
When an error has arisen from any transposi-
ton of figures, the difference between such
lransposed number of figures is uniformly
multiple of the numeral nine. For instance,
suppose an error occurs in bringing out a trial
balance or cash settlement of the amount in
question, or that the sum short or over can be
divided by nine without any remainder, there
is strong probability that the mistake has
been made by iransposing figures at any rate,
if such mistake takes place by reason of trans
position, the sum in question will divide by
nine without remainder. To illustrate this
further IT 81 has been put down 70 the err
Tor will be Is, or twice Q exactly; if 1922 be
set down 223 the error will be 90, or eleven
times 0, and so on between any transposed
numbers. This class of error is very common

To MAKE CoFFEE. The proper way 10
make good coffee is 10 roast it carefully, in a
cylinder over a charcoal fire, until it is of
light brown color, then the cylinder should
be taken off the fire and turned gently until the
berries are thoroughly cooled. The best part
of the aroma is dissipated by the abominable
practice of turning out the coffee in an open
dish so soon as it is roasted. Any one can
see that the finest part of it escapes you can
smell it in every crack and corner of the house.
When cooled, it should be put in mortar and
beat 10 powder. A coffee-mill only cracks the
grains, but mortar pounds out the essential
oil. Then put it in an old-fashioned tin coffee
pot, pour on the hot water, stand it over a
fire, not too hot; let it simmer gently. Ii
your fire is too hot, it will burn the coffee and
spoil it. Then, take the lin coffee-pot fresh
from The FIRE, stand it on the table, and if you
want an appreciative friend. send for u.s.
