Keep Your Eye on Your Neighbors.


Take care Of them. Do not let them stir
without watching. They may do some
thing wrong, If you DO. To be sure, ; on
never knew them TO 10 anything very bad;
but It may be on your account they have
not. Perhaps, if it had not been for your
kind care, they might have disgraced
themselves add families a long time ago.
Therefore, dono relax any effort 10 keep
them where they ought to be; never mind
your own Lusiness-that will take care of
itself There is man passing along-he
is looking over the fence-be suspicious of
him /; perhaps he c6ntemplates stealing,
some of these dark nights there is no
knowing what queer fancies he may have
got into his head.
If you find any symptoms of any one
passing out of the path of duty, tell every
one else that you see, and be particular to
see great many. Its a good way to cir
culate such things, though it may not ben
eft yourself or any one else particularly.
Do keep something going Silence is a
dreadful thing though 1t is said there was
silence in Heaven for the space of half an
hour, do not let any such thing occur on
earth It would be to much like Heaven
for this mundane sphere. If. after all
your watchful care, you cannot see any
thing out of the way in any one, you may
be sure it is not because they have not done
anything bad!; perhaps, in an unguarded
moment you lost sight of them throw out
hints that they are no better than they
should be-that you should not wonder if
people found out what they were after
awhile, then they may not carry their heads
SO high. Keepit going, and some one viii
take the hint and begin to help you after
awhile-then there will be music, and eve
rything will work to charm Windham

A person of an observing turn of mind,
if he has rode through country town, has
probably noticed how the curious young
sters along the route will fill the windows
with their anxious faces in order to catch a
glimpse at all passers- by. Our friend John
athan, peddler, drove up in front of a
house, one day, and seeing all the hands
and the cook stareing from the windows,
got off from his cart, and the following di-
alogue took place with the man of the house:
Johnalhan-Has there been funeral
here lately ?. .. t.
Man of the house-Here? No. Why
Johnathan-Why, saw that there was
one pane OF glass that didn't hare head in
IL!
Man OF the bouse-You leave, blasted
quick, or there qCW be funeral.
