revolution in the lighting world. 1t

u it superior to anything extant

DUsr AND GIRLs.-A few Sabbaths
since Eda was, at her own request, allow
ed to go to Sabbath School, her first time,
and there she learned the startling intelli-
gence that she was made of dust. Little
Eda's mind was fully impressed with the
importance of the great truth, ss was
evinced by her frequent reference to the
subject, in the shape of questions answera-
BILE. This morning, however, she pro-
pounded sumner, which brought down
the house. Intently watching her mother
sweeping, as if to learn the art she must
finally practice, saying not word, her
eyes rested on the little pile of dirt ac-
cumulated by her mothers broom. Just
as the dirt was to be swept into the street,
the little philosopher burst forth with
" Ma, ma! why don't you save the dust
to make some more little girls?"

Not long since, middle-aged gentle

carrying large white rabbit-a pet.
Just before the stage stopped at toll
gate, the lady asked the gentleman to
hold the rabbit q moment, while she ar
ranged some other packages. He took it.
covered it in his shawl, and snugged it in
a manner quite fatherly. The gatekeeper
noticed it, asked if it was their child and
unwell. The gentleman replied, eyes,
our 6rst-born, the poor thing" After
the vehicle had resumed its journey, the
gentleman handed back the pet, saying,

At the request of our "Deyil'' we're

is an old story, but good one, and will
bear repetition:

alters afore his eyes, and q orful yell
ready to pour cut the first motion he
seed me make. So he larnt to swaller
things as he run, and alters kept his laigs
well under himself, for he never knowd
how soon he might want to use em in
totn his Internal carcus beyond the reach
ov flyin rock. He knowed the whiz ov

tu see who flung it, but just let his head
fly open: :tu gin howl roomto cum, and
set his laigs q gwyin the way his nose
happened to- be pintin. He'd shy round

"Don't Like My Business"

There is no greater fallacy in the world
than that entertained by many young
men that some pursuit in life can be found
wholly suited to their tastes, whims and
fancies. This philosophers stone can
never be discovered, and every one who
makes his life search for it will be rn-
ined. Much truth is contained in the
irishman's remark: alt is niver aisy to
work hard" Let, therefore, the fact be
always remembered by the young, that
no life.work can be found entirely agreea-
bic 10 man. Success always lies at
the top of hill if We would reach it,
we can do so only by hard, persevrring
effort, while beset with difficulties of
every kind. Genius counts nothing in
the battle of life. Determined, obstinate
perseverance, in one single channel, is
everything. Hence, should any Que Of
our young readers be, debating in his
mind change of business, imagining he
has genius for some other, let.him at
once dismiss the thought, as hewould a
temptation to do evil. If you think You
made mistake in choosing the pursuit
or profession you did, don't make another
by leaving it. Spend all your energies
in worhing for and clinsing to it, as you
would TO the lie boat that sustained you
in the middle Of the ocean. If you leave
tit, it is almost certain that you will go
down; but if you cling to it, informing
yourself about it until you are its mas
ter, bending your every energy to the
work, success is certain. Good, hard,
honest effort steadily preserved in, will
make your business or profession grow.
since no one should expect to reach
period whea he can feel that his life. work
is just the one he could have done best,
andliked best. We are allowed to see
and feel the roughncss in our own path
way, but not in others; yet all have
them.
