A Malden's "PsaIm of Life"

Tell us not in idle jingle marriage is
on empty dream, for the girl is dead that's
single, and things are not what they seem.
Life is real, life is earnest, single blessed
ness fb; "Man thou art, to man return
est, +" has been spoken of the rib. Not en-
joyment and not sorrow is our destined
end or way, but to act that each tomorrow
finds us nearer marriage day. Life is long
and youth is feetirg, and our hearts,
though light and gay, still, like pleasant
dreams, are beating wedding marches all
the way. In the worlds broad field of
battle, in the bivouac of life, be not like
dumb driven cattle-be heroine-a wife.
Trust no future, howe'er pleasant, let the
dead past bury its dead act, act TO the
living present heart within and hope
ahead. Lives of married folks remiud us
we can live our lives as well, and departing
leave behind us such examples as shall

brother seeing shall take heart and court.
Let us, then, be up and doing, with heart
on triumph set; still contriying, still pur.
suing, and each one husband get.

A STORY FROM NED BRACE. Mr. Bacon,
of Edgefeld, S. c., The hero of the Geor-
gia scenes, under the name of Ned Brace, ;
was once courting lady in Georgia or Car
olina. She had refused him frequently, and
he MS often renewed his suit. At one inter-
view she became extremely annoyed at his
importantly, and told him that she could
not marry him; that their tastes, opinions
likes and dislikes were totally different. -
'In fact" said she, "Mr. Bacon, don't
think there is one subject ON earth upon
which we agree"
~ assure you, madam, that you are mis-
taken," said Mr.. Bacon, ''and L can prove
it,"
'If you will mention one thing about
which we agree, said She ~ will marry
you"
s "Well, said Mr.. Bacon, 81 will do il.
Suppose, now, you and werc travelling to-
gether; we arrive at night at hotel, and
there are only two beds vacant in one
there Is man, And the other woman
which would you sleep in2"
"She rose Indignantly, and replied,
"With the woman, Of course, sir!''
80 would l." earnestly responded Mr..
Bacon.

The Hot Water Cure.

A paragraph has been going round the
papers to the effect that the Hon. Eduund
Burke, when i'll, used hot water as pana
cea. He used to pour it hot from teaket-
tie into basin, and sup it with spoon as
one would soup. Hot water consumed in
this way forms what the ancient medical
world would call diluent, deobstruent, and
diaphoretic. The water, be it observed,
should be hot-not what we call lukewarm,
or as our fathers would have called it, hleaw;
for the word lew, or luke (which is corrup-
tion,) expresses the whole idea, and the
compound word lukewarm is, as Horne
Tooke said, an unnecessary reduphcatlon,
just as if one should say coolwarm or hot
warm. Lew or tepid water makes man
puke; but water, as hot as can be slipped,
stimulates the stomach, assists it in pushing
on i'll digested or half-digested food, and
provokes perspiration. The addition of "a
squeeze of lemon;juice to the hot water
makes it extremely palatable if the tongue
is Aabby or ill-tasted and any purgative,
followed by this hot drench, acts quickly in
half-dose. Some years ago, dyspeptics
were seen to be slipping hot water just after
dinner for the prevention Of gastrodynia and
waterbrash; but even physicians have fash
ions, and this one has gone to its own place.

The First Thousand Dollars.

The first thousand dollars that young
man, after going out into the world to act
for himself, earns and saveS will generally
settle the question of business life with him.
There may be exceptions to this statement,
yet, for a rule, we think that it will hold
true.
The first condition is that the young man
actually earns the thousand dollars in ques-
ton. He does not inherit this sum. 1t
does not come to him by streak of good
luck, as the result of fortunate venture in
the purchase and sale of hundred shares of
stock. 1t is the fruit of personal industry.
He gives his time and his labor for it. While
he is thus earning and saving it, he must
earn two or three, or perhaps four times as
much, to pay his current expenses. He is
consequently held sternly to the task of in
dustry for very considerable period. The
direct consequence to him is steady, con-
tinuous, and solid discipline in the habits Of
industry, in patient, persistent, forecasting
and self denying efforts, breaking up all the
tendencies to Incidence and frivolity, and
making him a watchful economist of time.
He not only learns how to work, but he also
acquires the love of work; and, moreover,
he learns the value of the sum which he has
thus saved out of his earnings. He has
toiled for it; he has observed its slow in
crease from time to time; and in his esti-
mate it represents so many months or years
of practical labor. His idea of life is shaped
by his own experience.
These natural effects of earning the first
thousand dollars we hold to be very large
benefits. They are just the qualities of mind
and body which are most likely to secure
business success in after years. They con-
stitute the best practical education which a
man can have as worker in this warning
world. They are gained in season for life'S
purpose, at the opening period, just when
they are wanted, when foolish notions are
most likely to mislead an inexperienced
brain, and when, too, there is full oppor-
tunity for their expansion and development
in late years. Men have but one life to
live, and hence they start from opening man
hood but once. And the manner in which
they start, the purposes they have in view,
and the habits they form, will voluntarily de-
termine the entire SEQUEL Of their career on

as a little child, he shall not enter therein. :"
When the train reached B, a gentle
man who had been engaged in conversation
with another, accompanied by his little SON,
babe his traveller adieu and said to
the child: "Good-bye, Charley; take care
of yourself"
"My father will take care of me, p" replied
the little fellow, with a readiness gratifying
to the father and amusing to the bystanders.
How true it is that the very first, as well
as last, lesson for him to learn who would
enter the kingdom, is to distrust self and
trust God.
How many an anxious fear for the future
would be removed, could we learn ever to
say, with the guileless confidence of the
child, "My Father will take care of me p

Brighten Up.

This is the best direction, whenever the
skies lower out of doors or in.
Nothing ightens labor like cheerfulness,
and nothing makes the wheels of toll drag
so heavily as sullen Or angry spirit.
There is no grace that can equal it in a
woman, and with all our daughters accom-
phshments, let US strive to make this one Of
the chief. 1t is almost as contagious as bad
temper, but not quite. There are surly dis
positions that can withstand its influence
some time before they melt, just as the ice
bergs which come drifting along from their
northern homes into the warmer seas, with,
stand for space the mild rays of the sun,
and the caressing of summer waves. But
at last the old hulk yields, and disSolves
trembling, and melting, and falls to atoms
wholly vanquished. If sunshine can thav
al iceberg, do not despair of its power OF
any heart.
But if we would have this sweet bird 81
love singing in our bosoms, we must train
the heart right. Only soul that draws
fresh water morning by morning from the
fountains of life, can have this peace and
Joy which will make her own life blessed and
blessing.
Oh, mothers, in the hurry and hustle Of
every day cares, do not forget this. KeeE
the end of the way ever before you, what
ever else you forget. 1t is small matter
that your family should go without bread
for day, but oh, it is terrible that your
soul should famish eternally.

Reluctance to Leave the Old for the New.

Sir Robert Peel once presented far
mers' club in England with two iron ploughs
of the best build. On his nextvisit, he found
the old wooden mould-boards still at work.
"Sir," said a, member of the club, "we tried
the iron, and we be all of one mind that
they do make the weeds grow" Within the
circle of our agricultural acquaintance, we
know farmer who winters thirty head of
cattle, cuts sixty tons of hay on meadows
without stone, and still does it all with
scythes although the clatter of half dozen
machines can be heard from his front-door
any pleasant July morning. He has at
length procured horse-rake; but the pros
pect for mower is yet dubious. When the
desirableness of labor-saving machine has
been demonstrated, we advise its immediate
use. A good mower will pay for itself in
three years, and horse-rake in two; and it
would be wisdom in many man to save his
poultry-money or his pork-money for an in
vestment of that kind next June rather than
to salt it down in some savings bank.
