The Lark's Example.

Poets are talking eVerlastingiy of
rising with lark, and brushing away iu
the early walk the fresh dew Of the
morning. What do they kuow about
that same early dew ? They never
saw any of it in their lives. Do thew
know that it is made of the very cold
est kind of wateE? Not they. They
imagine it is composed Of beautiful
little crystals, Just like so many dia-
lnonds, that will not wet your feet and
legs, as if they had been pluuged into
a mill pond.
Rise with the lark indeed Unless
one could soar too, as he does, high
above the earth and its chilling dews,
q man had better keep snug in the
house, till they have time to eyapornte.
The lark knows better than to be TAX
ing walk before sunrise In the wet
fields. Upward, upward he flies as
far from them as he can, and sings to
meet the glorious sun on his return to
onr hemisphere. He would very quick
ly get too hoarse to sing long, if be did,
as some city people do. when they are
Furaliziag as they call it, that is. get
ting out of warm beds soon after day,
and rushing into the cold morning air,
which is about as bad as that of the
evening. without any previous accli.
nation. Take the morning air by all
means, but take your breakfast Erst.
We suspect the lark has sense enough
to do this. He gets the early worm
no doubt for his breakfast. --Nenark

The Figure Three

In all ages the number three has had
much mysterious significance, and 1t is
said that tho Arabian character 6
signifies Trinity in Unity.
However this may be, the character
holds high position in many of the
secret orders of the present day, and
one of their penmen has given the fol-
Toying deductions, principally from
ths ancient scriptures:
"Whsn the world was created we
find lald, water and sky, sun, moon
and stars. Noah had but three soEs;
Jonah was three days IN the whales
belly, our Savior passed three days in
the tomb; Peter denied his Savior
thrice There were three ratriarchs
Abraham, Isaac aud Jacob. Abra-
hsa' entertained three angels, and Sam-
uei was called three times. "Simon,
lowest thou me2" was repeated three
times. Daniel was thrown into den
with three lions, for praying three times
q day Shadrach, Meshach and Alb
ednego were rescued from the flames
Of the furnace. Fhe ten command
ments were delivered on the third day.
Job had three friends. St. Paul

baker and butler were to come to pass

self three times on the body of the
dead child, Sampson deceived Deliah
three times before she discovered the
secret Of his great strength. The Sc
cret letters on the cross are I. Fl. S;
SO also the Roman motto was compos-
ed of three words. an hoe signo.'"

Sleep.

There is no fact more clearly estab-
lished iu the physiology of man than
this, that the brain expands its ener-
gies and itself during the hours of
wakefulness, and that those are recup-
Grated during sleep; if the recupera-
tion does not equal the expenditure,
the brain withers-this is insanity
Thus it is that, in early English histo-
ry, persons who were condemned to
death by being prevented from sleep
ing always died raving maniacs; thus
it is, also, that those who are starved
to death become insane the brain is
not nourished, and they cannot sleep.
The practical inferences are these; l.
Those who think most, who do most
BRAIN work, require most sleep.
That time saved from necessary sleep
is infallibly destructive to mind, body
and estate. 8. Give yourself, your
children, your servants-give all that
are under you the fullest amount of
sleep they will take, by compelling
them to go to bed at some regular
hour, and to rise the moment they
awake; and within fortnight. nature,
with almost the regularity of the ris-
ing sun, will unloose the bonds of sleep
the moment enough repose has been
secured for the wants of the system
This is the only safe and sufficient
rnae and as to fhe question how
much sleep any one requires, each must
be rule for himself; great Nature
will never fail to wdste it out to the
observer under the regulations just
given.

HUMAN NATURE. An Eastern pa
per tells good anecdote ofan opElent
widow lady, who once afforded queer
illustration of that cold compound of
incompatibles called human nature "
It was Christmas eve Of one of those
old fashioned winters which were so
cold. The old lady put on on extra
shawl, and as she hugeed her shiver-
ing frame, she said to her faithful negro
servant
sit is aterrible cold night, Scip. /

Green, must be suffering Take the
wheelbarrow eli it full Of wood; pile or
a good load, and tell the POOR woman
to keep herself comfortable. But be-
fore you go, 'Scip, pat mp some more
wood on the fire, and make me nice
mug of flip"
1hese last orders were duly obeyed,
andth old lady was throughly warm
ed, both inside and out. And now the
trusty Scip was about to depart on
his errands of mercy, when tiscopsder-
ate mistress interposes a2uil:

hoaU that Impression came, | cannot
tell. There is another very strange
thing about. it, he added every.
thing here on board seems TO me quite
familiar; yet am sure that ! never was
! in your vessel before. It is all puz-
zle to me- What did your mate see Z"
Thereupen Mr.. Bruce related to
them all the circumstances above de-
tailed. The conclusion that they final
" arrived at was, that it was special
interposition of Providence to save
them from what eeemed to be hope
less fate.
The above narrative was communi-
Gated to me by Captain J. S. Clarke,
of the schooner Julia Hallock. x who
had it directly from Mr.. Bruce himself.
They sailed together for seventeen
months, in the years 1886 and '37; so
that Captain Clarke had the story from
the mate about eight years after its
occurrence He has since lost sight
of him, and does not know whether he
is yet alive. All he has heard of him
since they were shipmates, is that he
continued to trade to New Brunswick,
that he became the master of the brig
Comet, and that she was lost.
I asked Captain Clarke if he knew
Bruce well, and what sort of man he
was.
"As truthful and straightforward a
man" he replied, as ever met in all
my life. We were as intimate as
brothers; and two men can't be
together, shut up for seventeen months
in the same ship, without getting to
know whether they can trust one
another's word or not. He always
spoke of the circumstance in terms of
reverence, as of an incident that
seemed to bring him nearer to God
and to another world. I'd stake my
life upon it that he told me no lie"
O
Ia July 1859. The "Julia Hanock'' was
then lying at the foot of Rutgers Slip, New
York. She trades between New York and ST.
Jago. in the Island of Cuba The captain al
lowed me to use his name, and refer to bin as
