: An Old Story in a New Dress.

A very long time ago, in the western
mart of England, their lived an aged cou-
ple, whose time had passed away since
early youth, in the every day round of
farm life, and who had never been known
to have the least ill-feeling toward each
other since the time when good old Par
son Heriot had united them in the holy
bonds Of wedlock, twenty-five years be-
fore. So we'll was the fact of their con-
iugal happiness known, that they were
spoken Of far and near as the happiest
pair known. Now, the Devil (excuse the
abrupt mention Of the name,) had been
trying for twenty years to create what is
SO called ga fuss in the family" between
those old companions. But much to his
modification, he had not been able to in
duce the old gentleman to grumble about
breakfast being late once, or the old lady
to give q single curtain lecture. After
repeated efforts the Devil become dis
couraged, and had he not been a person
of great determition he would doubtless
have given up the work in despair. One
day as he walked along, in very surly
mood, after another attempt to get the
old lady to quarrel about the pigs get
ting into the yard, he met an old woman

LIFE.

False world, false love, false friends
All, all, are hollow as our widest dreams
Our lives are but dissolving views,
Where nothing is the thing it seems,
Let a man lead what life he may,
Fen Virtues self, in word and act;
And Envy's pois'nous fang cen then
Shall 81 rs venom on his back.
His acts be laid to selfish ends,
His truths be twisted into lies
His name, if famed away from home,
Shall there be open to surmise.
We learn, where'er our footsteps take us,
Deceit has foothold, Truth little chance
Looking at it in worldly way,
Virtue is mans worst inheritance.

you will find more real equality in social

Sister Margaret and Sister Mary, so high

as much self-devotion in carrying lone
wall flower down to the supper-table as
ever saint or martyr in the act that has
canonized his name. There are Florence
Nightingales of the ballroom, whom moth
ing can hold back from their errands of
mercy. They find out the red banded,
gloveless undergraduate of bucolic ante
