A Tribute

RE MEMORY OF COL. PATRICK VINCENT o'NEILL
WHO DEPARTED THIS LIFE JUNE 26, 1870
Softly, the hand of friendship strikes the Tyre,
With trembling eagerness strain to find,
Harmonious with the Borrowing desire,
\ To render fitting tribute, true and kind,
To the dear friend, beloved and genial hearted,
Who burst assunder prison bonds OF clay,
! And with the swift-winged messenger departed
Il To that bright home beyond the shoreless sea.
$The many.mansoned city of "Our Father"
b Prepared by skill eternal, living thought,
land tenderest care-where His beloved gather
Fast as the life task melted each is wrought,
with white robed angels in the plains elysian,
Whose dazzling splendor still remains untold,
Surprising even Inspirations vision,s
As st. John saw those pearly gates unfold.
Not mine the gift of language, to portray
His many virtues, or the noble traits,
Gilding his memory with glowing ray,
So bright that every human frailty fades
Meier did misfortune plead with him in vain,
Nor friendless, from his Preside, turn away,
But still, affection faintest sigh of pain,
4 Unto his answering heart found ready way.
Bearing st. Patrick's ever honored name,
a Whose virtues, we'll he strove to initiate,
His cherished faith e'er ready to proclaim;
) As son obedient, and affectionste,
As brother, ever tender, fond and true,
A loving husband, father kind,
Winning esteem, and 10 We, from all who knew
His genial, generous nature, rare to find.
Ah what a secret list Deaths hand unsealed,
Of want relieved, and weil-tir1ed kindly aid,
While widows signs, and orphans tears revealed
Their friend, their refuge, in the hour of need.
3ut the recording angel smiled, and wrote
A shining record of sweet charities,
he noblest, best work, of his life, wrought out,
isSt. Vincent like, unseen by mortal eyes.
nd tho with passionate and tender yearning,
THE lovipp onas wh o sadly m and mourn him

LESS FooD.-Less food means temperance,
precisely this nothing more or less. 1t does
not mean the Temperance reform; it means
simply the avoidance of excess. 1t is the ex-
cess, or the little too much, that hurts. Itisthc
feather that breaks the camel's back. And is
it, then, SO hard that little can be avoided?
Yes, that is it; we must have little more
there is little more room in the over-crowdcd
stomach. And what is the consequence? Sim
ply little uneasy feeling. Sometimes this is
all, but not always. 1t is however, always a
hurt, that will be felt by-and-by, and more as
the individual persists. But even for the pres
ent, with many men, it is a bad thing. per-
son will feel stupid; he will have the blues,
because the stomach, through the nervous in
fluence, affects the whole system, making the
body dumpish and the mind dull, and the indi-
vidual anything but agreeable. Now, this is a
common fact; we sec it everywhere, every day,
every meal people "hog it," that is the word:
Why not just cut off the little cXcesses, and
thus be cheerful, be healthy? Some men do
this. Reader, try it, and you will thank US.
Remember, it is not hard; the habit is soon
formed, and then you will be in a new atmos-
sphere; you will live new life. Think not
you are the one aimed at; We are all more OF
less at fault here. Much, much more happy as
race should we be if we paid more attention
to dict.-C6untry Gentleman.

GAS THE Twra is BENT THE TREE is IN
CLINED."-We often hear mothers wondering
why their daughters are so indolent, or so ig-
norant of household matters or so careless in
their habits. They complain, and scold, and
fret over it, but they make no attempt to teach
them any better. The fault lies with the moth
ers themselves; instead of training their girls
to habits of industry and neatness, instead Of
instructing them to household ways, they have
allowed them to grow up without any training
at all.
Girls are not going to learn these things OF
their own accord they must be taught from
the time they are old enough to learn, how to
be neat and industrious. The teaching of them
must be systematic, beginning in their early
years. it will not do to train them month,
then leave them three months to Go as they
please. Education is, after all, the mighty ma
gician that turns everything into gold. Moth
ers, educate your girls to be neat and industri-
ous, and you will never have to complain that
they are not neat and industrious women
Train them carefully in household ways teach
them to make puddings, and cakes, and pickles,
and preserves; show them how to be tidy about
house, how to do everything in the neatest
manner. Teach them by preccpt and example
it is worth the trouble; for, instead of having
drones and slattcrns about you you will have
we'll trained and useful helps.

SPEND WIsELY.-Look most to your spend
ing. No matter how much comes in, if more
goes out, you will always be poor: The art is
not making money, but in keeping it; little
expenses, like mice in barn, where they are
many, make great waste. Hair by hair, heads
get bald. Straw by straw, the thatch goes off
the cottage, and drop by drop, the rain comes
into the chamber. A barrel is soon empty, if
the tap leaks but drop minute. When you
mean to save begin with your mouth: there are
many thieves down the red lane. The ale jug
is great waste. In all other things keep with
in compass. In clothes choose suitable and
lasting stuff, and not tawdry fneries. To be
warm is the main thing. Never stretch your
legs further than the blankets will reach, or
you will soon be cold. A fool may make mon
ey, but it needs a wise man to spend it, Re-
member it is easier to build two chimneys than
to keep one going. If you give all to back and
board, there is nothing left for the savings bank.
Fare hard and work while you are young and
you have chance of rest when you are old.
