WOMAN AND PIcTUREs.-If indeed, woman
were mere outside, form and face only, and if
mind made up no part of her composition, it
would follow that ballroom was quite as
appropriate place for choosing wife, as an
exhibiton-room for choosing picture, But
inasmuch as woman are not mere portraits,
their value not being determinable by glance
Of the eye, it follows that a different mode of
approaching their value, and different place
for viewing them, antecedent to their being
individually selected, is desirable. The two
cases differ, also, in this, that if man select
a picture for himself from among all its ex-
hibited competitors, and briug it to his own
house, the picture being passive, he is able to
fix it their; while the wife, picked up at a
public place, aud accustomed to incessant dis
play, will not, it is probable, when brought
home stick SO quietly to the spot where he
fixes her, but will escape to the exhibition
room again, and continue to display at every
public exhibition, just as if she were not be-
come private property, and had never been
4 definitely disposed of.--Hanaai More.

From the Gem
The Burdock and the Violet.
By HARRIET WOOD

1t came up III the garden, that burdock,
Just behind the violet and close to the rose
bushes. 1t was in the corner close up to the
fence, and we would let it stay, and it should
have all the kind care and gentle attention
that the roses and the violet had Roadside
burdocks VIC knew were coarse, vile things,
with their dusty leaves and their sharp burs
ever adhering to the passers-by, and we would
like to see what garden burdock would be
like; whether it would be bright and fresh
and delicate for growing in such sweet COM
pany, and so we were merciful, and let it stay
And it grew among the roses and the violets,
and gentle hands watered it often, and the
earth was sotened about the roots, just as
for its fairer neighbors; but it waited not for
them in its progress upward. 1t shot up,
rank and tall, and wide leaves spread all
abroad aud threatened to cover up and obscure
its less assuming neighbors. Aud at last the
blossoms came. They were large and strong
aud armed with keen thorns, and the flowers
changed into burs, and they reached out their
thorny fingers and grasped the passers-by,
and the white dust lay thick on the rough
woody leaves, and the seeds flew out on the
wind to seek lodging places, where another
year new crop should find toothold and sus-
tenance A violet crept through the fence
and looked up brightly beside the hard, dusty
street, and we said we will let it grow there !;
and so it grew. Water, it had none except
from celestial fountains care, it had none ex-
cept from sunshine and sweet dews, and the
kindly gances Of the passers-by; yet there it
lived and bloomed sweetly, wasting its sweet
ness on the desert air." Its green leaves we're
as green as its cherished kindred of the Aow-
er-bed and its blue eye reflected as hopefully
as the blue of the summer sky
So we said to ourselves, Outward circum-
stances and mere surroundings are but little
after all and il change to Nature comes, it
must be work deep inwrought by other than
earthly hands

Age.


But few men die of age. Almost all die
Of disappointment, passional, mental, or bod
lily toll, or accident. The passions kill men
sometimes, even suddenly. The common ex-
preston, choked with passion, has little ex-
aggeration in it; for even though not sudden
ly fatal, strong passions shorten life, Strong
bodied men often die youDg-weak men live
longer than the strong for the strong use their
strength, and the weak have none to use.
The latter takes care of themselves; the for
mer do not. As it is with the body so it is
with the mind and temper. The strong are
apt to break. or like the candle, to run; the
weak burn out. The inferior animals, which
live, in general, regular and temperate lives,
have generally their prescribed term of years.
The horse lives twenty-five years the OK
fifteen or twenty; the lion about twenty the
dog ten to twelve the rabbit eight; the
guinea-pig six to seven years. These num-
bers all bear similar proportion to the time
the animal takes to grow to its full size.
But man, Of all the animals, is the Que that
seldom comes up to his average. He ought to
live hundred years, according to this physi-
illogical law, for FIVE times twenty are one
hundred but instead Of that he scarcely reach.
es, on the average, four times his growing
period the cat six times and the rabbit
even eight times the standard of measure
meut, The reason is obvious-man is not
only the most'irregular and the most intem-
perate. but the most laborious and hard-work-
ed Of all animals He is also the most irri-
table Of all animals; and there is reason to
believe, though we cannot tell what an ami.
NAL secretly feels, that, more than any other
animal. man cherishes wrath to keep it warm

1t makes me sad to look at thee,

Upon that frozen bough.
Though warmly clad, the wintry blast
So small aframe must pierce,
The snow comes driving thick and fast,
The darkening clouds look fierce.

When SUMMER ones invite 7

Broke on the stiffness of the wood;
With low echo returning long,
And died away in mellow mood,
The lowest vale beneath the green,
The rocky nook along the glen
Gave silent tokeRof the scene,
Happy, unused TO haunts Of men.
The pleasant place, spoke iowly them
The grove awoke no murmur rude,
But like soft music, more flowing when
In melody of Solitude.
Pause by the constant flowing rill,
Whose pebbling motions ceaseless flow
