First and Last.

1t is long ago in the days that are past,
When life was young aud my blood lowed
fast,
And my dreams were of wealth and an
carly fame,
When thought 10 win me a golden name
That loved being to me more fair
Than the viewless forms of the upper air.
Older in years was she than
But oh, the glance Of her lustrous eye
Was brighter TO me than the light that
lives
In the MONDAY beam which the warm sun
gives;
So gayly young mans fancy plays,
Round the woman he loves in his early
days.
Hair of a golden shade had She
Hair more golden by far 10 me
Than the golden hue Of the goldenest
wine;
Oh. she was something half divine
Face and figure and eyes and hair,
Ah, never was queen on a throne more
fair.
A jeweled crown for her stately head,
Scinctiliant diamonds and rubies red,
With pearls of the Orient, milky white,
And opals filled with lurid light,
Turquoise and jasper she'd have worn,
Had been the heir to kingdom born.
But the love which 1 cherished is long
since dead,
And the woman loved IS long ago vel,
And other loves in my heart found room,
To bud aud blossom and kindly bloom;
For love, like flower, springs up anew,
In the place where the old one lived and
grew.
Time has been gentle and God has been
good,
And slower motion is in the blood;
And the hair which olce was black as
night
To day with the frosts OF age is white,
As sit and think of the buried past,
When life was young and the blood run
fast.
And my heart is filed with gentler love
Which ncssles within 1t like dove,
For the child who climbs to my knees this
day,
And prattles and laughs in her childish
way,
AS she presses to mine her locks of gold

LOOKING OUT FOR SLIGHTs.-There are
some people always looking out for
Sights. They cannot pay visit, they
cannot receive a friend, they cannot
carry on the daily intercourse of the
family, without suspecting some offense
is designed. They are as touchy as hair
triggers. If they meet an acquaintance
in the street who happens to be pre-oc-
cupied with business, they attribute his
abstraction to some motive personal to
themselves, and take umbrage accord
ingly. They lay on others the faults OF
their own irritability. A fit of indiges-
ton makes them see impertinence in
everybody they come in contact with.
Innocent persons, who never dreamed
of giving Offense, are astonished to find
some unfortunate word, or some mo-
mentary taciturnity, mistaken for an
insult. To say the least, the habit is
unfortunate. 1t is far wiser to take the
more charitable view of our fellow be-
ings, and not suppose a slight is intend
ed, unless the neglect is open and direct
After all, too, life takes its hue, IN a
great degree, from the color of our own
mind. If we are frank and generous
the world treats us kindly. If, on the
contrary, we are suspicious, men learn
to be cold and cautious to us. Let q
person get the reputation of being
touchy, and everybody is under more
or less restraint; and in this way the
chances of an imaginary offense are
vastly increased. People who fire uI
easily miss deal of happiness. Then
liaundieed tempers destroy their own
comfort, as we'll as that of friends. They
have forever some fancied slight to
brood over. The sunny, serene content
ment of less selfish dispositions never
visited them. Bssz s:.3

A Ton OF HAY BY MEAsURE.-It is
a matter Of considerable dispute how
much hay in the NOW ought to be al
lowed as ton in weight. In some OF
the agricultural journals figuers widely
apart are given as correct. Some assert
that cube of 10 feet square is required
or 1000 cubic feet; while others place
it as low as 6 feet square and 3 feet
deep, or only los cubic feet. Now both
of these cannot be right, neither can
any measure be fixed upon to hold
good under all circumstances. Hay, al
the bottom of the NOW will be more
solid than at the surface, and the whole
will be very much affected by the guam
tity of grain put on top of it Iif any,
and the depth of the hay.

TEACH THE GIRLS TO RIDE.-TheFe is
no requirement which woman can
have, as well as man, more beneficial to
health, more inspiring of confidence
and self-pOssession, more inductive of
thought, variety and usefulness, than a
full knowledge how to manage a horse
and ride on horseback. Buy good
saddle and bride, fit the girl with pair
of Turkish trowsers, and a short skirt
jockey dress with cap and plume, and
set her to riding as soon as she is six
years old. Of course she must at first
have good, steady, reliable horse; but
a daily practice will soon exhibit her
obtaining perfect mastery of her horse,
and skill in riding and maintaining a
firm seat, outrivaling the smartest boy
to be found. Give the girl horse and
send to do errands. She will soon find
the PAGES of the horse, and learn court
esq with business. She will acquire
health, and frame for perpetuation ;
and should she ever-though discontin-
uing the practice for twenty years-be
required to ride horse for doctor,
or i'll travelling, the requirement will be
found retained, and her self-possession
and control of the horse as good as the
day she acquired it.

POSITION IN SLEEP.

1t is better to 60 to sleep on the right
side, saws Halls Journal of Health, for
then the stomach is very much in the po-
sition of bottle turned upside down,
and the contents of it are aided in pass
ing out by gravitation. If one goes to
sleep on the left side the operation of
Iemptying the stomach of its contents is
more like drawing water from well.
After going to sleep, let the body take
its own position. Ii you sleep on your
back, especially soon after hearty meal,
the weight of the digestive organs vein
of the body, near the backbone, COM
presses it and arrests the flow of blood
more or less. If the arrest is partial,
the sleep is disturbed and there are I'M
pleasant dreams. If the meal has been
recent and hearty, the arrest is more de-
cided and the various sensations are
such as falling over a precipice, or the
pursuit of wild beast, or other impend-
ing danger, and the desperate effort to
get rid oft arouses US, and sends on the
stagnant blood; and we awake in a
fright, OF trembling, or in Precipitation,
or feeling exhausted, according to the
degree of stagnation and the length and
strength of the efforts made TO escape
the danger.
