There Is proverb A father can more
easily maint.in six children than SIX children
can one father" Luther relates the story
There was once a father who gave up every
thing TO lis chiidren--his house, his fields, his
good--and expected for this the children would
support him; after lie had been some tine with
the Oldest son. the latter grew tired OF him, and
said 70 him, father Lad son born 10 me
this night. and t,ere, where Your arm char
stands. tie cndle must coa.s; viii you notPer-
hans 90 to ny brother, who has large room?
After he had been some time With the second
son, he also grew tired Of him andsaid, "faih-
er YOU like w.rm room, and that hurts my
head. Won't you go tony brother, the bakers
The father went, and after he had been sonic
time with the third son, he also found him
troublesome, and said to him: Father, tho
people run in and out here all day, as if 1t were
q pigeon house, and you cannot have your noon
day sleep; would YOU not be better of at my
sister Kate's near the town wall?" The old
man remarked TO himself, " Yes will DO soi
willtryit with my daughter" She grew weary
of him, and shs was always so fearful, when he
went to church or anywhere else, and was
obliged to descend the steep stairs; and at her
sister Elizabeth's there was no stairs to descend,
as she lived on the ground floor,
For tho sake OF peace, theold man assented,
and he went TO the other daughter but after
some time she, too, became tired Of him, and
told him, by third person, that the house near
the water was too damp for man who suffered
with the gout, and her sister, the grave diggers
wife, at ST. Johns, had much drier lodging
The old man himself thought she--was right,
and went outside the gate to his youngest
daughter, but after he had been three days with
her, her little son said to his grandfather,
" Mother said yesterday to cousin Elizabeth
thst there was no better chamber for you than
such one as father digs" These words broke
the old mans heart so that he sunk back IN
his chair and died.

MISCELLANY.
Honor the Aged.

Treat the old people with kindness and re-
spect. Hardly day passes that we do not
notice much which is deeply painful. A true
hearted man and gentleman viii honor old age
and its gray hairs. The ill-bred treat the old
rudely, and laugh at their tottering steps, or
old-fashioned manner of speech The Arabs
honor the aged. It's beautiful feature in hui
man character--a veneration for the aged
We lovethe man or woman who looks reverent-
Il upon those whose steps are fast going down
TO the grave. Young people oooften shun the
aged, as though their infrmities were conta-
gious Old hearts are grieved at such treat
ment. They cling fondly to the young, and
feel quickly the kindly neand helping hand.
The old mans mind has garnered wealth Of
observation and experience, and he is ever hap
py to converse. His heart beats quickly to
the voice of youth, and the dim old eyes kin
die with light as he talks of the past.
We love the old man and the old woman
They are but little way advanced on the path
way Of life A few brief years at most, and
we. if life is spared, shall stand in the dim twi-
light of two worlds. DJ the young ever think
of this? Do they ever dream that years will
steal upon them, until their black locks are
gray, and their strong limbs shrunken and
tremulous? Docs the spring-time OF year last
to the journeys end-no autumn or cherries
winter? No, no, young man or maiden. You,
too are growing old. You would not like to be
stunned, because time ireo varIivd you rie0 the
sere and yellow leaf" of earthly existence
Shun not others, then, for il is painful TO Wit
ness such neglect Of that veneration and re-
sp,ct which is due to those who, like ripened
shocks, are awaiting the harvest of death.
"Spcak gently to the aged one;
Griove not the care-wOrn heart;
The sands of life are nearly run
Let such in peace depart"
Speaking of old age-while in a railroad
train the other night, we noticed an incident
which filed our heart with pleasant thoughts.
An aged couple were seated together, their
heads both gray, and their eyes dim and sunk
en. Both though fatigued had fallen asleep,
the wife falling upon the still, broad-shoulder-
ei husband Il was beautiful sight. Thus
through half century they had journcyed to-
.ether the rugged oak and the clinging vine.
There were hslowed thoughts as we watched
them. Il would have excited no attention TO
have witnessed the young wife leaning thus
upon the choice Of her young dreams, and s
future all bright with hope. But after all the
ardor of youthful love and affections had pass
ed through the ordeal of lifes realities, then to
see the old wife still leaning upon the arm with
so much childish confidence and trust, was
scene of most touching and hallowing beauty.

OH ASK he NOT.

Oh! ask me not for smiles tonight
can but only sigh!
Do streams reflect the morn's fair light
When clouds oerspresd the sky?
mol sorrows cloud is on my brow,
Its shadow in my heart,
And with the gay and joyous now
/ cannot act part.
0h ask me not FOR songs tonight.
'TweTe all in vain to try;
Can shattered bells give forth sweet tose
Along the balmy sky?
When winters cold and icy chain
Hath bound yon murmuriag stream,
Itsings not sweetly Ger the plain,
AS in the summers beam.
Ny thoughts are with the loved and lost
They're thronging round me now,
And with them come on memory's tide
Sweet dreams of long ago,
That cause my lonely heart TO grieve
For hours of by-gone years;
Then ask not smiles or songs-but leave,
Oh leave ME to my tears.
