We think we can show how much cheaper
it is to take the Lady's Book at Three Dol
lars than any other magazine at Two Dollars.
We will take a late number of both. The
Two Dollar Magazine contained 80 articles.
the Lady's Book 62.
| The Two Dollar Magazine contained 81 en-
cravings, the Lady's Book 81.
The Two Dollar Magazine contained 81 pa.
ges, the Lady's Book 100.
Twenty-four more engravings, twenty-siN
more articles, and thirty-six more pages
nearly double the quantity. The lowest clul
price Of the Two Dollar Magazine is 81 ,25
lowest club price of Lady's Book s 1871, only
II cents difference in the price, which is three
and a half cents on each number, and for tina
sum (three and a half cents), you receiv,
twenty-six more articles, twenty-four NOR
engrayings, and thirty-six more pages month

cents worth. This view of the case hai
probably never before been presented, but il i

KINpNEss. Would it not please you
to pick up steins of pearls, drops OF
gold, diamonds and precious stones, as
you pass along the streets Ii would
make you feel happy for month to come
Such happiness you can give to others.
How. do you ask BY dropping sweet
words, kind remarks, and pleasant smiles,
as you pass along These are true pearls
and precious stones, which can never be
lost of which none can deprive you.
Speak to that orphan child see the dia'
mouds drop from her checks. Take tho
hand of that friendloss boy bright pearls
flash in his ewes. Smile on the sad and
detected. a joy diffuses his cheek, more
brilliant than the most precious stones.
BY the wayside, mid the city's din, aud
at the freside of the poor, drop words
and smiles to cheer and bless. You will
feel happier when resting upon your pill
low at the close of the day, than If you
had picked a score perishiug diamonds
The latter fades aud crumple in time
the former grow brighter with age, and
produce happier reflections forever.

The Pauper's Funeral.

Lightly, tread lightly, yc are bearing away
The heart of sleeper, once joyous and
light,
Long burdcn'd by sorrow, the glory of day
Has scatter'd those shadows of darkness,
and night.
Tread gently the pathway that leads to the
tomb,
its portals ere long may be opened to thee,
And think, as ye gaze on her lies closing
gloom
How bright the Hereafter,of that soul may
Think We in the morning of Youth that she
dreamed
OF so dark and tcmpestuous a sunset as
this2
To her the long voyage of the future then
A realm of cnchantmcnt, an Eden Of bliss.
Did she dream of the poison that lurked in
the cup2
Did the shadow Of Poverty then hover near
To lock from her view loves pure fountains
ur7
Nay, her heart knew no sorrow nor shadow
of fear.
Then lightly, tread lightly, our sister was she
Who goes unlamcnted to sleep meath the
sod
And her Haven OF bliss is far, far away
AS the soul of the proud from its duty,
and God.
