Want of Leisure.

People are very apt to be mistaken
in this affair Of leisure. There are very
few men who put every hour Of theil
time to the best use. Often those who
have the least to do don't half do tha
little, while those who are most engag
ed do every thing thoroughly. I'll give
a plain illustration drawn from every
days experience. IF you want any mat
ter, whether of profit or charity, done
expeditously, and we'll done too, go moi
to the man who half bis time stands Of
sits with his hands in his breeches pock
cts, but to the very identical person
who being a thorough business doing
man is always at work. That is the
man for you. An idler from habit re-
CARDS every thing that requires a little
labor, study or confinement as an an
looks on a mole hiH. 1T seems like a
mountain. But an industrious man
looks at his labor before him with tn,
eye ofa man who is not afraid of it,
And here is the secret spring Of hi:
ability he does not loiter or hesitate
he acts promptly at once.-[Cor. Gene

OLD WINTER Is COMING.

if OLD WINTER Is COMING.
Old Winter is coming agsIu-alack I
How icy and cold he is
He cares not pin for a shivering back,
He's saucy old chap to white and black,
He whistles his chill with wonderful knack,
For he comes from cold country.
"A witty old fellow this Winter is;
mighty old fellow for glee
He cracks his jokes on the pretty sweet miss,
The wriukled old maiden, unht to kiss,
And freezes the dew Of their lps--for this
Is the way with such fellows as he. .. TO-
q DID Winters frolicsome blade wot-
He's wild in his humor and free !
He'll whist e along for the want of his tho't.
And set all the warm III Of our furs at nAught,
And rufIle the laces, by pretty girls boushti
For frollcsome old fellows he.
Old Winter is blowing his gust along,
And merrily shaking the tree
From morning till night he will sing his song
Now moaning and short--now bowling and long
His voice is loud, for his lungs strong
A merry old fellow is he p.
Old. Winters tough old chap l ween--
As wicked ever you'll seel
He withors tho flowers so fresh and green
And bites the pert nose of the miss Of sixteen,
As she trumphantly walks in msidenly sheen
wicked old fellow is he
Old Winters tough old fellow for blows,
As tough as ever you'll seei
He will trip up trotters, and rend our clothes
And stiffen our limbs from fingers to toes
He minds not the cry Of his friends or his foes,
A tough old fellow is he
cunning old fellow is Winter, they say,
cunning old fellow is he!
He peeps iu the crevices day by day,
To see how we're passing our time away.
And marks all our doings from grave to gay.
I'm afraid he Is peeping at me. w'

Selecting Colora.

The art of selecting colors which snit
the complexion aud general style Of the
wesrer, is not generally known among
the ladies. The following may be use
full to themg ..'..s..
For fair-haired or dark-haired ladies,
those cOlors which produce the greatest
contrast are best. Thus for fair hair,
sky-blue is very becoming. Yellow
and orange, tinted by red, are becoming
to ladies with black hair. Rose color
should never be put on iu actual con
trast with rosy complexion, because
the latter loses by the comparison it
should be separated by white lace
blonde, or, if cap or a bonnet, by
locks of hair. Pale green is exceed
iugly beco ming; it makes them appear
rosy--but is unfavorable to ruddy faces,
for it makes them too red. Violet
should never be used for fair complex
ions, except for q very deep tint for
contrast. A violet dress will make q
fair complexion look green, and yell
low one orange-which is bad for all
compilations. Dead white, such as cali
co, is rood for fair compilations, but
bad for the contrary; for which the
white muslin, or tulle, in folds or en-
reehe, is more advantageous.

Failing Eyesight.


When sight is beginning to fail, the
eyes should be favored as much as pos
sible. This can be done: -..
l. By sitting in such a position as
will allow the light to fall upon the
page or sewing, oblquely over the
shoulder. 2. By not using the eyes
for such purposes by any artificial light
or before sunrise or sunset. 3. By
avoiding the special use of the eyes in
the morning before breakfast. 4. By
resting them for halfa moment or so
while reading or sewing, or looking at
small obje cts, by looking at things at a
distance or in the sky; relief is immedi-
ately felt by so doing. 5. Never pick
any collected matter from the eyelashes
or corners of the eyes with the finger
nails; rather moisten it with the saliva
and rub it away with the nail of the fu-
ger. 6. frequently pass the ball of the
fingers over the closed eyelids, toward
the nose. This carries off any excess
of water into the nose itself by means
Of the little canal which leads into the
nostrils, from each corner of the eye,
which canal tends to close up, in conse
quenoe Of the slightest Inflammation at
tendant on weakness of the, eye. z.
Keep the feet always dry and warm, so
as to prevent any excess of blood from
the other end ofthe body. 8 Use eye
glasses at first, carried in the vest pock-
ct, attached to guard, for they are iu
stantly adjusted to the eye with very
little trouble, whereas if common spec
tacles are used such proc ess is requir.
ed to get them ready, that to save trou.
BILE the eyes are often strained to answer
purpose. 8. Wash the eyes very
abundantly every morning. IF cold
water be used, let it be tapped against
the closed eye with the fingers of the
right hand, not striking hard against
the ball of the eye. But it would seem
better plan to open the eye in pure
blood warm water, because warm watei
is more penetrating than cold; it dis
solves more rapidly any hardened mat
ter that may be about the lids, aud I il
more soothing and more natural 10
The momsntthe eyes feel tired, the very
moment you are conscious Of an efforl
to read or use the needle, take walk
for an h our, or employ yourseIfin SOM
exercise OF requiring the close use o
the eyes.--[Hall's Journal.

NuTRIMENT LOST BY MEAT IN Cook
INa.-Various kinds of meat are diff
ferently affected in this way: thus boiled
chickens lose Is per cent, boiled ducks
as much as 27 per cent. Much de
pends on the mode of dressing. A leg
of mutton broiled loses 10 per cent.
roast 25 per cent. The fatter meat is
the more it loses and hence it should
only be fat enough to be TENDER
ROast;meat contains, bulk.for bulk, more
nutriment than the same meat if boiled
But this is a disadvantage, since it is
more difficult of digestion; and the evil
is increased by the same amount being
required to satisfy hunger, aud with less
concentrated nutriment; since the stom.
ach judges that it has had enough
chiefly by the relative quantity that
has been taken hunger being appeas-
ed by quantity rather than quality.
