Some Of the ways in which even avery
small sum, actually saved and put aside
in early life, serves as q stepDing stone 70
future competence, are these; <
The saving gives the young man the
reputation among his neighbors and bus
mess associates Of being careful, frugal,
and prosperous. IL gives him what is
called good business credit, 1t is accept
cd as an index of his business character,
and instead of his being forced to seek
employment, opportunities seek him.
Besides, his little ready capital enables
him to take advantage of business OPEN
ings which, If wholly empty.handed, he
could not aspire to. II enables him soon
10 become his own employer most inn
portant consideration. Money begets
money. Capital has natural tendency
TO increase itself, and very little capital
in the hands of q iu1iciousperson,a and COM
bined with the labor of strong and skill
ful hands, is vast help. The dav laborer
or the mechanic who has few hundred
dollars in the bank, or invested in good
interest bearing security, Is a capitalist as
well as working-man, and is prepared
to reap the advantages of his double
capacity. stt-t 1850.
But mainly, the saving and keeping of
the first hundred or the first thousand
dollars is the key to future success, from
the fact that it builds up business char

of economy, and fixes them for life; it
puts the young worker on the right road I;
accustoms him to keeping out of debt,
drills him in the homely science Of keep
ing his financial matters snug, and builds
up granite determination to force ex-
penses below income.-N y. Homestead.

The voice is commanding and repellant

start up suddenly.

in fact rushing back again even faster
than they had run away, as If they were

The Stones turned aside as he presented
the magic plants to them, and, forming
themselves again into o column behind
the largest one, they advanced directly
upon Beneadik, who had fallen on his
knees in an agony of terror.

him with its enormous size; and the rest,

Two Meals a Day.

If any man or woman of forty five or
over, not engaged in hard manual labor,
especially the studious, sedentary and in
door, ,liyers, would take but two meals a
day for a menth, the second not being
later than three in the afternoon, and alb
solutely nothing afterward, except it
might be in some cases an orange or
lemon, or cup of warm drink, such as tea,
bremo, sugar water, or ice-cream, there
would be such change for the better in
the way OF sound sleep, feeling, on wax
ing, of having rested, an appetite for
breakfast, buOyancy of disposition dur
ing the day, together with Il geniality OF
temper and manner, that few, except the
animal and glutton, would be willing to
go back to the flesh pots of Egypt. "Ben.
| Wade" as he is frequently called, one OF
the political lions OF the West, has taken
but two meals day for twenty years, and
| if all sedentary persons, those who are
| indoors a greater part of their time, would
after tho age of 'forty-five, observe the
same inflexible rule, there can be nc
doubt, other things being equal, that long
years of happy exemption from the ordi
nary ills would be the result. The reason
is, that the stomach would have time Il
rest for recuperation, and would thus b'
able TO perform its part more thoroughly
making purer blood, giving better sleep
and securing an appetite for breakfast

the second meal seven hours after thu

The Sabbath.

One morning gentleman was going to
church. He was happy, cheerful
Christian, who had great respect for the
Sabbath. He was singular man, and
would sometimes do and say what the
children are apt to call "funny things"
AS he was going he met stranger driving
heavily-loaded wagon through the town.
When the gentleman got right opposite to
the wagon he stopped, turned round, and
lifting up both hands, as if in horror, he
exclaimed as he gazed under the wagon.
"There, there, you are going it You
haze gone over it.
The driver was frightened. He drew
up his reins in an instant, cried, "Whoa,
whoa - and brought his horse to stand.
Then he looked under the wheels, expect
ing 10 see the mangled remains of some in
nocent child or at least, some poor dog or
pig that had been ground to jelly. But
he saw nothing. So, gazing all about he
looked up to the gentleman who had so
strangely arrested his attention, and
anXiously asked.
"Pray, sir, aohGt hd0e Id0ne ?"
"Gone over the fourth commandment" "
was the quick reply. Remember the
Sabbath day to keep it holy.
