POETRY.
The World Would DO the Better for |,

If men cared lees for wealth and fame.
And less for battle fields and glory:
II writ in human hearts, name
Seemed better than in song and story,
II men, instead of nursing pride
Would learn To hate and abhor It.
III more relied on love to guide,
The world would be the better for K.
If men dealt less in stocks and lands.
And more in bonds and deeds f,aternal;
II Loves work had more willing hands
10 link this world TO the supernal;
III men stored up Loves oil and wine.
And on bruised human hearts wouldpour il
III yours and "minc would once combin,
Tskworld would be the better for it.
If more would act The play of life.
And fewer spoil II in rehearsal:
If bigotry would sheath its knife
It'll God became more universal;
If CUSTOM gray with ages grown.
Had fewer blind men to adore il;
If talents shown for Truth alone.
The world would be the better for il.
IL men were wise in little things
Affecting less in all their dealings, ..
III hearts had fewer rusty strings
10 Isolate their kindly feelings:
III men. when Wrong beats down the Rirbt,
Would strike together and restore il;
If Right made Might in cvery aght.
The world would be the better for It.

WEAR THIS IN YOUR HAT.-Pay your
debts as soon as you get any money in
your pocket, Do without what you don't
need. Speak to n friend in n seedy coat.
Speak your mind when necessary. Hold
yoTr tongue when prndcnt. If you can't
lend man money, tell him why If you
don't want to, do the same. Cut any ac-
quaintancc who lacks principle Bear
with inilrmitics, but not vices. Respect
honesty, despise duplicity Wear your
old clothes till you can pay for new ones.
Aim at comfort and propricty, not fash
ion, Acknowledge your ignorance, and
don't pretend knowledge you havnt got
Entertain your friends, but neper beyond
your means

MANNERS Rs--If there is one thing above
another that we admire among young
folks, it is good manners. Good manners
arc not learned, so much aj acquired

rough manner at home, bcgcts a habit
which we cannot lay aside if we try,

agreeable at home. Home is the school
