Thc Passion for Display.

The world ID crazy. Tho call is for
show--show-an still show. There is not
one person in q thousand, male or female,
who dares fall back on nothing but his real
simple self for power by whose aid to get
through the world, and extract enjoyment 0s
he goes along. There is too much living 10
the eyes Of other people. There is no end
to the aping, the mimicry, the false airs and
the superficial ants. And until people take
a new view Of things entirely, and resolve
10 turn very short corner in order to live
obedienty to such a view, the world will
90 on as it has been going on for ever SO
long, and all of US will continue TO chase
bubbles only to see them burst mere water
drops in cur hands.
1t trequireS rare courage, we must confess
to live up to ones enlightened convictions
in these times. Unless you consent to join
in the general cheat, you are hcoted at and
jostleJ out Of reach. There is no room fo;
you among the great mob of pretenders.-
II man dares to live within his means,
and is resolute in his purpose not to appear
to be more than he really is, let him be ap
plauded. There is something fresh insuch
an example. 1t deserves to be set down as
one Of the oddities and curiosites Of the
age. The few who devote themselves tc
such fine resolutions can, we fear, be count,
ed upon the fingers. But still, they are the
little heaven in the huge lump. The mes;
will yet be stir ed by the truth and simplicity
of their examples, When they oha'l sue
ceed in restoring old times again, then we
may begin to talk about the reconstruction
of society upon a new basis, and not mucl
before.

Movc of Beauty.

So deeply is this instinct implanted in ell
animated nature, that not only the educated
man, but the untutored savage, and even the
minimizing brute, are swayed by its silent
influence. Throughout the universe runs a
spirit which is ever striving to discover the
abstract beautiful, and to re unite the broken
and mutilated symmetry of the wide creation.
We once read of lion who fell in love with
a beautiful woman, Yho used to visit the
Geological Gardens daily, where he was
kept, for the purpose of taking drawing of
him. As soon as she entered the pavilion,
the noble forest king would make the most
vehement and intelligent demonstrations

fully through the bars, and c1ouching ao
near to her as possible-while his eyes
seemed to lose their wonted fiefceHess Of
expression, and his whole manner showed the
most pleasing and fawning satisfaction. -.
When she had finished her daily task and
retired, the grief Of the noble animal became
fierce and ungovernable. He beat the bars
of his prison with his mighty arms, and
struck furiously at all who approached
even his keeper-who no more dared to visit
him, as usual, or put himself within his
reach. At last, when the lady had compile.
ted her drawing, and came no more to the
mena oario he becarle for several daVs wild
and furious to such degree as to threaten
the safety Of all around him, and at length
pined in sullen silence-refused his food and
starved to death.-Home Journal.
