The Golden Side.
81 MRS. n. A. KIDDnh.

There Is many rest in the road Of life
II We only would stay to take it;
Aud many tone from the better land.
If the auerulous heart would make it,
To the sunny soul, that is full of hope,
And whose beautiful trust ne err faileth,
The grass is green and the flowers are bright,
Though the wintry storm prevalent.
Better to hope though the clouds hang low,
And to keep the eyss still lifted;
For the sweet blue sky will soon peep through
When tho ominous clouds are ritted;
There was never light without day,
Or an evening without morning;
And the darkest hour as the proverb goes,
Is the hour before the dawning.
There is many gemsin the path Of life
Which we pass in our idle pleasure,
That is richer far than the jeweled crown,
Or the miser's boarded treasure;
1t may be the love of little child,
Or a mothers prayers to heaven,
Or only beggers grateful thanks,
Fer cup Of water given.
Better to weave in the web of life,
A bright and golden filling,
And to do Gods will with ready heart,
And hands that are swift and wiling
Than to up the delicate minus threads,
OF our curious lives asunder,
And then blame Heaven for the tangled ends,
And Sit and grieve and wonder.

II ,,R EDWARD nu1xrn 1rrroz.


Fresh glide the brooks, and blows the gale,
But yonder halts the quiet mill
The whirling Wheel the rushing sail,
How motionless and still
Six days Of toll, poor child Of Cain,
Thy strength the slave Of want may be,
The seventh thy limbs escape the chain
A God hath made thee freel
All, tender was the law that gave,
This holy respite to the breast,
TO breathe the gale, to watch the wave,
And know the wheel may rest.
But where the waves the gentliest glide,
What image charms to light thine eyesi +
The spire reflected on the tide,
Invites thee to the skies.
TO teach the soul its noble worth,
The rest from mortal toll is gain;
Go snatch the brief reprieve from earth
And pass-a guest to heaven.
They tell thee in thy dreaming school,
OF power from old dominion hurled,
When rich or poor, with juster rule,
Shall share the altered world.
Alas since time itself began,
That fable hath but fooled the hour,
Each age that ripens power in man,
But subjects man to power.
Yet every day in seven, at least,
One bright republic shall be known;
Mans world awhile hath surely ceased,
Then God proclaims his own.
eix days may rank divide the poor.
o Dives, from the banquet hall;
The Seventh the Father opes the door,
And holds his feast for all

No DANGER OF TOO MUCH STUDYING
4 writer in a leading Magazine has an inter
estiug article upon study. He regards study
rs healthful, and says that real study condu
ces to peace of mind aud body. Many girls,
and boys too, are incapabl. Of it. | have
known parents lament the effects Of hard
study on their children, when those children
never knew an hours hard study, and never
could compass it if their life depended on 1t.
What they suffer from is inability to study,
not study. Parental ignorence, vice, weak
ness, or mismanagelneus, have given them
bodies and souls alike nevertheless and fac
cid They can 60 to parties, follow the fash
ions, lounge over books, perhaps pore and
worry over them; but they are utterly inca
pabIe of concentration, energy. struggle. vic
tory. Their minds are insane and their bod
les dropping. Others have fine physical powers
in which their plny souls are well nigh lost
Others have strong souls, but chained to s.
body of death. By all means let such chill
dren quietly fall out of the ranks"
