That was beautiful idea of the wife ofan
Irish schoolmaster, who, while poor himself,
had given gratuitous instruction to poor
scholars, but when he increased in worldly
goods, began to think be could not afford to
give his services for nothing:
''Oh James, don't say the like of that"
said the gentle hearted woman, don't; "a
poor scholar never came into the house
that | didn't feel as if he brought fresh air
from Heaven with him. never miss the
bit give them-my heart warns to the
soft and homely sound of their bare feet on
the floor, and the door almost opens of itself

MISCELLANEOUS READING.
HEBREW WoaEN.-The tender devotion
which the daughters of Israel bestow upon

HEBREW WoaEN.-The tender devotion
which the daughters of Israel bestow upon
their parents, especially upon their father,
is full of beauty and pathos. In the dark
alleys of the Worlds Ghetti, when the old
Hebrew man toddles home from his daily
strife with prejudice and iucre, wondrous
change transforms his face as he crosses the
threshold of his weather-beaten house. The
furtive glance expands, the crooked gait is
made straight, the many wrinkles OF his
brow are made smooth, the COUGHING form Of
the pedler disappears, and the old man
stands erect as if he were worthy OF better
things; the smile loses it's sinister grin,
and is clothed with genial beauty. Rebecca
has kissed away the ugliness Of the money
changer, and to see him sit down at his to-
BILE after havings sent up to Jehovah prayer
for good luck and plenty of gain for the COM
ing day, and chat with his daughter, who
delights in humoring his jokes, il a treat
for an artist in search of the picturesque, or
for poet in quest of the romantic. Rebec-
cas- abound not only in the regions OF the
Ghetti, but in the middle, and higher, and
highest order of Hebrew abodes. Here we
find the daughters, as class, watching with
Argus eyes fathers and mothers happiness
and comfort Here, on the domestic shrine,
all the fires of love and affection are burning
so vigorously that unwittingly even the SYM
pathies are consumed, which are wanted to
kindle the great flames round the sacred al
tar of common humanity. Unless this
drawback is constantly kept in view. our de-
scripton Of the Hebrew daughters love for
her parents would be calculated to surround
the feeling with TIVE angelic atmosphere.
