pies Of infancy. Wordsworth, was not

the most exquisite child that lives in
English words. And when speaking
Of middle age. of its peculiar tran
quiity and humor, why not tell Of its
peculiar beauty as wellp Men and
women make their own beauty or
their own ugliness. Sir Edward
Bulwer Lytton speaks in one of his
novels, of man "who was uglier
than he had any business to be"
and. if We cnnld h,t read ;... every
human being carries his life in his
face, and is good-Iooking or the re-
verse as that life has been good or
evil. l On our features the fine chisels
Of thought and emotion are eternally
at work. Beauty is not the monopo-
ly Of blooming young men and of
white and pink maids.
There. is o slow growing beauty
which only comes to perfection in
old age. Grace belongs to no period
of life, and goodness improves the
longer it exists. 1 have seen sweeter
smiles on lip of seventy than I ever
saw on lip of seventeen. There is
the beauty of youth, and there is also
the beauty of holiness-a beauty
much more seldom met, and more
frequently found in the arm chair
by the fire, with grand children
around its knee, than in the ball
room or the promenade. Husband
and wife who have fought the world
side by side, who have made com
mon stock of Joy or sorrow. and aged
together, are not unfrequently found
curiously alike in personal appear
ance and in pitch ant tone of voice,
just an twin pebbles on the beach,
exposed to the same tidal influences,
are each others alter ego. He has
gained q feminine something which
brings his manhood into full relief.
She has gained masculine something
which acts as a foil to her woman
hood. Beautiful are they in life,
those pale winter roses, and in death
they will not be divided. When
death comes, he will not pluck one,
but both.

spread that nobler banquet where the
soul is fed, without fear of gluttony or
dissipation. As books bring into our
daily circle, as familiar companions, the
noblest spirits that ever wrought on earth,
and permit us to rear our children under
the influence cf TIC noDlest natures, so
the piano, with simple incantations, brings
up from their sleep the noble brother
hood Of song, and persuades them to
dwell among us.

Voltaire says, "man loves life, yet he
knows he must die; spends his existence
in dffusing the miseries he has suffered
cutting the throats of his fellow-creatures
for pay-cheating and being cheated
The ~ulk of mankind are nothing more
than a crowd of wretches, equally crimi.
