Edneated Man and woman.


The educated man-the educated wo-
man; how noble a spectacle do they pre-
sent Behold him in the majestic beau
ty of his well-built and carefully y-devel-
oped form; his senses true and rapid;
his strength unweakened by low indul-
gences, and undiminished by laziness
and neglect. His sleep is sound and
dreamless. He wakes with the sun, and
gazes with a never-eeasing wonder at
the splendid miracle of his rising. The
morning song of birds is music to his
ear. He steps forth from his chamber
and treads with delight upon the fresh
ened earth. The carly breezes salute
his keen senses with healthy thrill
The blue heavens breathe a tranquil JOY
into his uncontaminated soul The
hum of the wakening world rouses his
energies and draws attraction to his Gus
tomary labOrs. If he tills the earth, he
walks a-feld with brave and vigorous
step. If he be a professional man, he
takes up his unfinished task, with a
happy consciousness that good work
shall be done to-day If he be a teach
er, he goes gladly and hopefully to the
scene of his appointed duties, and, with
ever-renewing interest and hope, watch
es over the daily growth Of those-the
young promise of the land-whose
minds and characters are intrusted to
his oversight and conscientious care.
Behold her, too, the paragon of intel
lectual, moral and physical beauty-the
educated Woman-the queen of the
earth-the charm Of society-the best
companion, adviser, guide and friend of
man-the better half Of humanity
Culture has added to her natural delica-
oy q refinement. Letters have clothed
her womanly graces with a charm Of
taste and intellect. She moves in her
destined path Of duty, as If she had de-
scended from a higher sphere, to adorn,
delight, instruct and elevate society
The imputed weakness Of her sex is
transformed into strength, whose gentle
power is mightier than the boasted
strength Of man. In prosperity she
turns her afluence to the noblest uses,
and becomes the almoner Of Heaven
Her presence sheds upon the splendora
Of wealth a grace and charm without
which riches are a vulgar show. She
calls around her the creations Of art and
poetry-herself the loveliest creation of
them both. She summons order out Of
chaos; she turns discord into harmony
she scatters moral darkness, by the ge.
nial sunshine Of the soul. In adversity
her virtues shine out with the most lus.
tre. Her brave soul refuses to be cast
down. Here, certainly, she rises TO Q
conspicuous height above him who II
sometimes called her lord and MASTER
With what uncomplaining frmness she
encounters privationj with what courage
Gus devotion she bows her noble beauty
20 the tolls and hardships which sudden
poverty, like a cruel cOnqueror lays up
on her. With what meek and soul-sub
DUNG submission she accepts the mos
burdensOmo conditions Of existence
and without a murmur leaves the en-
ohalted bowers in which her youth.wal
passed to tread the rugged ways Of duty
through the hard realities Of life itself
leaving to those who survive her tht
blessing Of her spotless example, an,
the undying memory Of her dying smile
