What We Sow We shall Reap.

There once was an old man whose eyes had
become dim, and his ears deaf Whom he
sat at the dinner table, he could hardly hold
his spoon, SO that sometimes no split his
soup on tho cloth. His son and daughter
In law were much displeased at this; at last
they made their old father sit la a corner
behind tho stOvo, and gave him food in q
little earthern plate. He never got so much
as he could eat, and no would look towards
tho table with wet and longing eyes.
Ono day his hands let the little dish fall,
and It was broken. The woman scolded,
but he said nothing; he only sighed. They
then brought q wooden trough for him
Once he was sitting thus In the corner !;
his little grandchild, about four years old,
was playing on the floor near him, with

"what arc you making ," asked tho
father, smiling.
Il am making . troutb, answered the
child, "for father and mother to eat from,
whom they are old aud am grown big"
The man and his wife looked at each other
In silence, and their tears flowed fast. They
brought their old father back to the. table,
and gave him as much as he wished, and
they never spoke angry words when his

Reading for Youth.

rope. A lifetime, devoted entirely 10
reading, would not afford time for the
perusa! Of one tenth Of he books already
published, 10 say nothing Of the vast an
nual increase. and the great amount Of
periodical literature.
As. therefore, with the time young men
have for reading, only very small por.
lion-not one in a huEdred-of the
existing books aud Of the periodical mat.
ter can be read, it becomes necessary tha,
the youth should be very select in choosing
works 10 which they devote their time and
attention. II this is not the case, valu.
able time is, a. least, wasted.
In selecting books, act as in choosing
friends. There are those with whom we
cannot associate, and books we cannot
read. without receiving positive injury -
Then there are light. tritlng and foolish
people and books, whose company tends
TO dissipate the mind, and give il distas;e
for everything manly and noble. Select
only few books for perusal, and those
calculated to improve The mind and the
heart
The manner Of reading is important.
Books should be read not merely for
amusement, but for purpose. Cole
ridge divides readers into four classes
"The first" he says. "may be COM
pared 10 an hour glass, their reading be-
ing as the sand-it runs in and it runs
out, and leaves not vestige behind.
"a second class resembles sponge
which imbibes everything. and returns il
in nearly the same state, only little dir
Iier.
"a third class is like jelly bag. which
allows all that is pure 10 pass away, and
retains only the refuse and the dregs.
"The fourth class may be compared tc
the slave in The diamond mines Of Col
conda, who, casting aside all that as worth
less. preserves only the pure gem"
Another author says, il is necessary tc
have a fixed, noble purpose behind dis
position TO read, as behind physca
strength in secular pursuits. Otherwise
what is read will be Of comparatively lit
tie service.
These few hints on reading are designed
as merely suggestive OF thought, and per
haps discussion among our young readers

Canoes and How They are Cut.

ducCd, those cut in hard stone. and those

this purpose are tho oriental ONYX, provided
they have at least two different colors in
parallel LAYERS. Tho value Of the stone is
greatly increased for this purpose If it has
four or Ave differently colored parallel
layers. If the layers are so thin as to assist
in marking the dovico of the cameo. For
example: specimen of stone which has
four rparaIlul layers may be used for cameo
of Minerva, when tho ground would be
dark grey. the face light tho bust and
helmet black. and the crest over tho helmet
brown or grey. All such canoes are
wrought by a lapidsry's lathe, with pointed
instruments of stool and by means of
diamond dust. Shell cameos are cut from
large shells found on the African and Bra

one white, and the Othe. either pale coffee

A BusT OF LoRD NELSON WoRsuIrED AS
AN lDoL.-AmODg tho Acul mountains there
has boon found, in an old house, a bust OF
Lord Nelson. Ii is of white marble, some.
what stained By time and neglect. Nelson
10 represented in his costume of admiral
and bears ON his breast five decorations.
Ono in eommemoration of the battle OF
Aboukir, has the inscription "Rear- Admiral
Nelson of tho Nile" Another medal bears
the words: almighty God has blessed his
Mujosty's glory !"
This bust, interesting in its artistic and
historical association was found ON an altar
devoted to the fetish worship, where for
half a century IL has been revorenced as the
Deity of tho Mountain Streams. Tho names
of the seulptOrs were "CoaIe and Lealy, Of
Lambeth"
Thus for hfy years the bust of an En-
gllsh admiral has been worshiPed as . hea-
then idol.
The finder of the statue has refused an
offer of hvo hundred dollars for it.
