A PLEA FOR THE DEARDLEss.-ln
1889, the young Constable Of Castile was
sent by his sovereign ITO facilitate Pope
Sixtus v. on his exalta,ion to the papal
throne. The pontiff, displeased that so
young an ambassador had been deputed to
him, could no, help saying, "And well, sir,
did your master want men, by sending me
an ambassador without beard w-,lf my
sovereign had thought" replied the proud
young Spaniard, "that merit consisted in a
beard, he would have sent you n goat and
not Il gentleman.

BOOKS, TRUE LEvELLERs.-God be
thanked for books. They are the voices of
the distant and the dead, and make us heirs
Of the spiritual life Of past ages. Books
are the true Jewellers. They give to all who
will faithfully use them the society, the
spiritual presence, Of the best and greatest
Of our race. No matter how poor am. No
matter though The prosperous Of my own
time will not enter my obscure dwelling
If the sacred writer's will enter my obscure
abode under my roof-if Milton will cross
my threshold to sing to NE Of Paradise, and
Shakespeare to open to me the words o.
imagination and5t!.e workings Of the hu
man heart, andaFYanklin to enrich me viii
bis practical wisdom-l shall not pine fo
want of intellectual companionship and
may become a cultivated man, thong,
excluded from what is called the best sorie
ty in the place where live.-Dr. Chan

PAST TRoUBLEs.-Don't harp on past
troubles. When we see a pale, nervous
woman, inihe midst Of her frienls, prefer
ing to entertain them With list oflhe rack
ing pains she has, suffered, to saunter in
Gods free air and sunshine. We cannot won
der that the rose returns not to her blancb-
ed cheek. Why is it that to some those
memories are very meat and drinka They
consume them-,he bitter agopy is acted
over and over again, the team thrice shed,
the place cherished where such dreadful
thing occured--tbe scar fopdly petted that
