most intimate friend !; I tell you, girls, it:
all luck, after all. It depends altogether
upon circumstances whether or not you ev'
er make the acquaintance of the man you
love. By the way, I ought to remark just
here, that young lady should endeavor to
place her affections upon one whose ac'
quaintance she has already formed and
whose sentiments she understands. But,

line womau's heart. Aint it; girls?
However, don't drink poison, or throw
yourself into the pond, because your love
affairs do not go exactly according to youl
wishes. I'm quite philosopher, girls
indeed I am-and my advice to every
body with headaches and heart-aches, is
quite simple: Keep cool, do the best you
can to remedy matters, and trust to God.
aNever say die !'-never allow any
thing to unnerve your hearts, but cheer up
and take courage, for, if you try to do all
in your power to rend the clouds and let
out the warm, bright sunshine all around

revived, and the snow about the door o!
your hearts will soon, very soon be thaw,

do not for moment imagine, that such
creatures are true representatives of all the

o my! I do wish everybody would try
to be happy, that the. days were longer,
and the nights shorter, in our hearts! ]
declare my reader, I sometimes think that,
asa people, we are very much given tc
grumbliDg, and that our dispositions are
becoming morose, sour, fretful and all that
kind of thing. .,. ..: .
There is much left in the world for which
our hearts should be profoundly grateful
The daily experience is not all dark and

sensible hearts.

perhaps I should get into deep water if
I do not bring these remarks to close.

his head when he was boy, to keep his
promise, and follow me in all my literary (O
