KEYS OF THE HEART.

The heart is an instrument fashioned in beaven,
And chords of pure harmony to it are given,
That but Tightly touched will awaken to birth
Sweet music to soothe the sad children OF earth
But the keys of the heart that lie silent will rust
VIII loose all their music, be covered with DUST
Till sefshness, discord, impurity, strife,
Will bury forever the sweet songs of life
Let melody rise from the key of your faith,
To reach thro' the valley and shadow of death
To open the gates of the bright world of bliss,
And soften and charm the dark sorrow of this.
Let hopes song triumphant through all your life ring
Till it join the glad chorus that heavens angels sing
Through blight and through blossom, through glad
ness and pain,
Let the angel of hope in your souls palace reign
And forget not the key that is sweetest OF all,
Causing showers of mercy from heaven to fall;
Which links souls together below and above,
Joining all to the father who named Himself Love u

1t was an October night, in Philadelphia.
The air was cold as November. 1t was
late, and there was not much noise on the
streets. In cozy room sat man. He
looked careworn and haggard. He shaded
his brow with his hands. His wife, beau
tiful woman, stood beside him, smoothing
his hair, and speaking words of encourage
ment to him.
"It is no use, Bell" he groaned. Ii
cannot command ten thousand dollars by
tomorrow noon, / must go to the WALL
The banks are tight, and there is no money
to be negotiated for in the street. L am a
ruined man."
Perhaps this may be of use to you,"
said his wife, handing him slip of paper.
He went to the lamp, and read as follows

MOTHER's WORK.

Toiling at noon like busy bee,
Teaching the little ones A, B, c.;
Hearing the older ones read and SPELL
Smiling and praising whenall goes well;
Washing and brushing, 'twixt work and play
Such is the mothers work day by dayl
Sowing good seed in their path along,
Sowing by action, by word and song;
Never once pausing to count the cost,
Knowing that much that is sown is lost;
Bearing prayer in her heart Away
Such is a mothers life day by day.
Robing each form for its nightly rest,
Hearing the faults of the day confessed s
Thus at her knee as her fowerbuds nod,
Sealing and giving the day of Cod.
Now, may good angels her watch essay,
Angels have watched o'er her work all day.

[By crusty old bachelor who lives in family where

Toiling all day like galley-slave,
Teaching the little brats how to behave,
Hearing the older ones quarrel and fight,
Slapping and cutting with all her might
Washing and brushing, and whipping their noses
Such is the mothers work till the day closes.
Sewing up rents in their best pants torn,
Patching on cloth over the worn;
Never once pausng to count the stitches,
Darning alike the boys and the breeches;
Thankful in heart when they're out of the way
Such is the mothers life day by day
Sending each nightgowned urchin to bed,
Longing to hear the last word said;
Wishing them happy in heaven above,
With all the warmth of mothers love-;
Now, may good angels be thankful alway-
That they never work like mothers all day.

A Letter of Introduction.

Two little boys were standing at a gate
They were both about the same age. But
one of them was finely and taStily dressed,
while the clothes of the other were coarse
and ragged. 1t was in the autumn. The
huskers were busy in the corn-feld, and
from the strip of the woods beyond foated
out the sound of the woodcutter's axe.
Have you no better clothes, Benny ?"
asked the well-dressed boy.
|" No, / haven't Johnny"
'fWhy do you not get better ones, Ben
nyT
" Because can't. / haven't got any
money"
"That is bad, Benny. Are you going to
school this winter ?"
(" I guess not, Johnny must stay out
and do such little jobs as | find to do.
would like to go to school very much.
only wish knew as much as you do, John
N.Y.
Pooh F! / don't know anything. am
sorry for you. am glad that am better
of. But that does not make me feel proud.
God made you as good as am, if your
clothes are ragged"
Benny took his little friend by the hand.
"A tear glistened in his eye.
1Ou udt0 always UOCu hlHu w LuCi
Johnny Allen" said he you have never
hooted me, nor taunted me like other boys.
So have sometimes taken up your quar-
rels, and will stand by you when we are
men,"
" Look here, Benny, how would you like
to work on farm all winter2 Good clothes,
enough to eat, and little pocket money,
nice family to live with, and plenty ofwork."
6 I would like that"
"Then can help you. 1t just occurred
to me. My uncle Abbott wants little boy
on his farm. will give you letter to
him."
Two days afterward Benny stood in front
of Uncle Abbott awaiting reply. Uncle
Abbott was pleasant looking man, not
yet stopped, bat with hair quite gray. He
put on his spectacles, opened Johnny AL
lens letter, which read as follows
" Meadow Brook, Oct. 9, l845.
Unkle abbott this is Benny He is good
Boyle is poor and has no home. Pleas
Keep Him & Civ Him work.
Your Neffew
JOHN allen"
Now, Johnny was quite small boy and
not SO we'll learned as Benny supposed him
to be. But Notwithstanding the spelling
misuse of capitals, and want of punctua-
ton, the letter ofintroduction was sufficient.
Uncle Abbott gave Benny home for a
number ofyears.
