How to Prosper in Business.

In the first place make up your mind to
accomplish whatever you undertake; decide
upon some particular employment, and per-
by assiduity.
Be not afraid to work with your own
hands, and diligently too. GA cat in gloves
catches no mice" He who remains in the
mill grinds, not he who goes and comes
Attend to your business; never trust to
another. "a pot that belongs to many is
i'll stirred and worse boiled"
Be frugal. ''That viii will not make
a pot, will make a pot lid" 'Save the
pence and the pounds will take care of them
selves"
Be abstemious. "Who daintios love shall
beggars prove"
Rise early. 1.-The sleepy fox catches no
poultry plough deep while sluggards
sleep, and you will have corn to sell and
keep"
Treat every one with respect and civility
Everything is gained and nothing lost by
courtesy GOOD manners insure sue
cess"
Never anticipate wealth from any other
source than labor especially never place de-
pendence upon becoming the possessor of an
Inheritance. HE who waits or dead mems
shoes may have to go long time barefoot"
HE who runs after shadow hath a
-wearisome race"
Above all things never despair. God is
where he was. "He helps those who truly
trust in him."

Don't Hurry.

Believe in travelling on step by step
don't expect to be rich in a Jump. Slow
and sure is better than fast and flimsy.-
Perseverance, by its daily gains, enriches q
man far more than fits and starts Of fortu-
nate speculation. Little fishes are sweet
Every day thread makes skein in a year.
Brick by brick houses are built. We should
creep before we walk. walk before we run,
and run before we ride. In getting rich,
the more haste the worse speed. Haste
trips up its own heels Don't give up
small business till yeu see that a large one
will pay you better. Even crumbs are
bread. Better a little furniture than an
empty house. In these hard times, he who
can sit on a stone and feed himself had bet
ter not move. From bad to worse is poor
A crust is hard fare, but
meme at all is harder. Don't jump out of
the frying pan into the fire. Remember,
many men have done we'll in very small
shops. A little trade with profit is better
than great concern at loss small fire
that warns you is better than large fire
that burns you A great deal Of water can
be got from small pipe. if the bucket is
always there to catch it. Large hares may
be caught in small woods. A sheep may
get fat in small meadow, and starve in a
great desert He who undertakes too much
succeeds but little-John Plouqhnan's
Talks.

RAPID INCREASE IN POPULATION A man
passed through Nevada City, Mo-, one day
last week, who had gone there to settle,
and, from the number Of children that were
around the wagons, some Of the citizens
thought that it was an orphan asylum that
was moving, and commenced talking with
the old gentleman. The old man said he
was sixty-four years of age, and that he
had with him ninety-four children, grand
children and great grand children. In fact,
there were enough childaen to start two
respectable village schools. Tho colony was
from Indiana, said they liked the country
pretty we'll, and would purchase land as
soon as they found location to suit them.
He stated that his brother was coming
out as soon as he settled, and that he had
one hundred and seventeen children, grand.
childred and great. grand children. This is
the number that are living, and it is almost
most incredible to believe that two men
have actunlly more children and grand
children that all the children in Nevada
City, and one of them only sixty four years
old. A gentleman went to one wagon that
had SO many heads sticking out from under
the wagon-sheet that it looked like coop
full of chickens, and asked the lady how
many children she had. She looked around,
as if counting them, and said II had four
teen when | started, and [ guess they are
all here"

Who of us couldn't stretch it little
If we only tried

Who Of us couldn't stretch it little
if we only tried
A little girl and her little brother were on
their way to the store one morning. The
grass on the common was white with frost,
and the wind was very sharp. They were
both poorly dressed but the little girl had
a sort of cloak over her which she seemed
to have outgrown.
AS they walked briskly along she drew
the little boy closer to her, and said, "Come
under my cloak Johnny"
ut isn't big enough for both, sister"
"Then will try and stretch it a little. u
And they were soon as close together and
as warm as birds in the same nest.
What lesson How many shivering
bodies, and sad hearts, and weeping eyes,
there are in the world, just because people
do not stretch their comforts a little beyond
themselves.

An Extraordinary Theory---Can
Life be Indefinitely Suspended.

A distinguished Swedish chemist, Pro-
fessor Grusselbach, profestor of the Uni
versity Of Upsal, has come to the conclusion
that those Egyptian mummies which are
found in the ancient tomhs on the Nile in a
complete state-that is to say, without hav-
ing been deprived of their brains and en-
trails, like most mummies-are not embalm-
ed at all, but "are really the bodies Of
individuals whose life has been momentarily
suspended, with the intention of restoring
them at some future time, only the secret of
preservation was lost Professor Grussel-
bach adduces many proofs in support Of his
idea-among others, his experiments during
the last ten years, which he says have always
proved successful. He took a snake and
treated it in such manner as to benumb it
as though it had been carved in marble, and
it was SO brittle that, had he allowed it to
fall, it would have broken into fragments.
In this state he kept it for several years,
and then restored it to life by sprinkling it
with stimulating fluid, the composition of
which is a secret. For fifteen years the
snake las been undergoing an existence
composed of successive deaths and resurrec-
tions, apparently without sustaining harm.
The Professor is reported to have petition
to his government, requesting that crimi
nal who has been condemned to death may
be given to him to be treated in the same
manner as the snake, promising to restore
him to life again in two years. It is I'm
derstood that the man undergoing this ex-
pertinent is to be pardoued. Ofcourse, if a
man can be kept in state of suspended
animation for two years, he may be kept
for two thousand years, and. if the Professor
succeeds, we may lay up few specimens of
our contemporaries for exhibition in the
thirty ninth century.--Appzeton's Journal.

A STORY WITH A MoRAL.-A Conneeti-
cut exchange tells the following story Of a
boy who was sent from Groton, Conn,
with bag of green corn. The boy was
gone all day, and returned with the bag
unopened, which he dumped on the floor,
saying:
'There's your corn go and sell it; I
can't.
'Sold any ?"
"No I've been all over London with it,
and NOBODY said anything concerning green
corn. Two or three fellows asked me what
[ had in my bag, and | told them it was
none Of their business what it was !
The boy is not unlike hundreds Of bust
ness men, who will probably call him fool
for not telling What be had to SELL They
are actually doing the same thing on 8
much larger scale than did the boy, by moi
advertising their business in the papers.

us to lift. But God does not require US to
carry the whole at once. He mercifuily
unties the bundle, and gives us first one
stick. That we might easily manage, if We
could only take the burden appointed for US

A Mans greatness lies not in wealth or
station, as the vulgar believe nor yet in
his intellectual capacity, which is often as
ISOLATED with the meanest moral character,
the most AFFECT servility to those in high
places, and arrogance to the poor and low
ly but mans true greatness lies in the
consciousness of an honest purpose through
life, founded on a just estimate of himself
and everything else, on frequent self ex-
animation, and steady obedience to the
rule which he knows to be right, without
troubling himself about what others may
think or say, or whether they do or do not
do that which he thinks and says aud does.

If We Would.

If we would but check the speaker
When he soils neighbours fame,
If we would but help the srring
Ere he utter words of blame;
If we would, how many might we
Turn from paths of sin and shame.
All the wrongs that might be righted
If we would but see the way!
All, the pains that might be lighten'd,
Every hour and every day,
If we would but hear the pleudings
OF the hearts that go astray.
Let us step outside the stronghold
OF our selfishness and pride;
Let us lift our fainting brothers.
Let us strengthen, ere we chide;
Let us, ere we blame the fallen.
Hold light to cheer and guide.
All, how blessed-ah. how blessed
Earth would be If we but try
Thus to aid and right the weaker,
Thus to check each brothers sigh;
Thus to walk in duty's pathway
To our better life on high.

There are seeds of mighty good;
Still, we shrink from souls appealing
