Resist the Beginnings.

The Arabs have a fable of a miller,
who was one day startled by a cameI5
nose being thrust in the window of a
room where he was sleeping. "It is
very cold outside" said the camel.
II only want to get my nose in"
The nose was then let in-then the
neck, and finally the whole body.
Presently the miller began to be in
.convenienced at the ungainly COM
panion he had obtained in a room GER
tainly not large enough for both. If
you are incOnvenienced, take your
leave" said the camel "as for myself,
I shall stay where am"
MORAL: Yield not to the humblest
entreaties of temptation. The wedge
once entered, the obstacle is overcome.
Let the "nose' in, and the whole body
will soon follow. Resist the begin-
nings

Computing Interest.

The Chicago Journal gives a new
rule for computing interest, and says
it is so simple and so true, that every
banker, broker, merchant or clerk
should post it up for reference. By
no other arithmeticaI process can the
desired information be obtained by
fewer fgUress
Sir per ceat.--Multiply any given
number of dollars by the number Of
| days upon which it is desired to ascer-
tain the interest, separate the right
hand figure and divide by six; the
result is the true interest on such sum
for such number of days at six per
cent.
Eight per ce1t..-1fultipIy any given
amount by the number Of days upon
which it is desired to ascertain the in
terest, and divide by 45, and there
suit will be the interest of such sum
for the time required, at eight per
cent.
Ten per cent.-Multiply the same as
above and divide by thirty-six, and
the result will show the rate of inter-
est at ten per cent.

Body and Soul.

A distinguished clergyman and a
distinguished gymnastic teacher once
met at a large dinner party, and fell in
to a playful contest Of courtesy as to
which should precede the other in go
ing out to the table.
"Certainly, you should go first, " pO-
litely urged the gymnast, "because
you have the care Of the soul; and
the soul is Of higher dignity than the
body"
"Nay," replied the clergyman, not
to be outdone in afability; 81 cannot
precede you, for you have the care Of
the body; and he who cares for the
body cares for the soul too"
81 believe you" )" said the gymnast ;
$50, if you please, we will advance
arm in arm-symbuIizing the beauti-
full reciprocation Of influence and OF
dignity between the two parts Of our
nature"
"Agreed!' said the clergyman, as
he offered his arm.
This anecdOte is an apt text for ser
mon which ought to be preached in
every pulpit-a sermon which might
be made both a long and interesting

Select Miscellany.
A Rnsh Promise.

The Portland Argus tells the fol.
lowing story of young lady who is q
pupil at one of the schools in that
city, and who has already, it seems
beaten her father at mathematics:
She modestly proposed that if her
father would give her only one cent
on one day, and double the amount on
each successive day for just one
month, she would pledge herself ney-
er to ask Of him another cent as long
as she lived. Pater.familias, not stop
ping to run over the figures in his
head, and not supposing it would
amount to a large sum, was glad to
accept the offer at once, thinking it
also favorable opportunity to include
a possible marriage dowry in the iu-
ture. At the twenty-ffth day he be
came greatly alarmed, lest if he com
piled with his own acceptance he
might be obliged to be ''declared a
bankrupt on his own petition"
But at the thirtieth day the young
girl demanded only the pretty sum OF
$5,368,609 u! The astonished mer-
chant was only too happy to cancel the
claim by advancing a handsome cash
payment for his folly in allowing him
self to give bund-Or his word he
considered as good as a bond-with-
out noticing the consideration therein
expressed, and by promising TO return
to the old custom Of advancing small
er sums daily until otherwise ordered

Ladies Should Read Newspa-
PeFs.

1t is a great mistake in female edu-
cation 10 keep young lady's time and
attention devoted only to the fashion,
able literature of the day. If you
would quality her for conversation,
you must give her something to talk
about; give her education with the
actual world, and its transpiring
events. Urge her to read newspapers,
and become familiar with the present
character and improvements Of our
race. History is of some Importance
but the past world is dead; we have
nothing to do with it. Our thoughts
and our concerns should be for the
present world; to know what it is and
improve its condition. Let her have
an intelligent opinion, and be able to
sustain intelligent conversation nc
cOrding to the mental, moral and re,
IigiOus improvement Of our times. Let
the gilded ANIMALS and poems on the
centre table be kept part of the time
covered with weekly and daily jour
nails. Let the whole family, men, wO'
men and children, read newspapers.

Heaven.

Henry Ward Beecher ridiculcs the
idea that the inmates of Heaven do
nothing but stand around a great
white throne with harps in their hands
and sing psalms. Mr.. Beecher, it
seems to US, has the right view of the
matter. There is no scriptUral ground
for limiting the activity and employ
ments Of immortal beings to a mOnOt-
OnOus physical exercise; and it is a
wonder that the folly of doing so has
not been perceived long ago. 1t is
much more sensible to suppose that
the people in the other world enjoy
social and intellectual delights, and
have varying occupations according 10
their capacities, similar to those that
are enjoyed by the good on earth, only
more perfect in quality and degree.

Among the duols which deserve to
be recorded, is that between the celo-
brated Irish barristers, John PhiIpot
Curran and John Eagan, nick-named
"Bully Eagan." The latter was u
man Of immense size, while Curran
was slim and short. The chances of
being hit were, therefore, in favor Of
the former, for Gas Curran said) it was
like firing at a haystack. Curran
therefore proposed to- equalize the

Post.Omce AToner Orders.

1t appears from the Postmaster
Generals Report that the money
order system is now working very
successfully in our twenty-seven
thousand post-offices, and is as pOpu-
lar as it is in England. The English
have long known the value of it, for
they have had it for nearly thirty
years, a fact, the New York Times
thinks, affording a curious commenta-
~ on the slOwness with which people
Of different nations will accept ideas
of social science from one another
In England the safe sending of money
in that way is thought as great boon
as the actual transmission of letters.

Culture for the Whole Man,

The ministers of religion sometime.
seem to forget that man has any fac
ulties except the religious that are
worthy of culture. Man, in theil
Judgment, would appear to be made
up OF two essences; viz: depraVity and
susceptibility to religious Impressions
the first being under the dominion
of Satan, the second and vastly the
weakest, requiring a constant miracle
OF divine grace to act at all. While
we confess to depravity in man, we
find many other powers, which, under
proper culture and encouragement,
would lead him to yearn after the
higher culture Of the soul. We hold
that all the talents, tastes, sentiments,
and propensiLies, should be recogniZ-
ed as the gift of God, and properly
cultivated and regulated; then shall
we be men as well as Christians; he
rOes, not half developed towards;
giants, not pigmies; sons of God, made
in his noble image, and under his
tathorly care coming to be perfect men
in Jesus Christ.
The Christian who is willfully in
sensible to the beauties of art, who
despises the cultivation of science,
who sees only evil in society unless il
don the Puritanic garb, is on kindred
ground with the ascetic of the desert,
and will neutralize the effect of his
many virtues by the little respect
which will be had for his Judgment.
How noble is the fully and evenly de-
velOped man All is grandly bar
mOniOus. Yet not only is such a soul
developed in its calm strength, but al
so possessed of the most exquisite
Christian hoxibiIity, moving easily in
all the accomplishments of refined life,
graceful as it is strong, wonderful in
It's adaptation 10 every demand-for
the refUrmer's pulpit or the martyrs
fagOt, and not less for the charm OF
the social circle or the adOrnment of
home; master of the principles of phi
lOsOphy and the niceties of taste, and
over all, as the crowning glory, tho
roughly consecrated in its desires for
the glory of GOd.-[PhrenOlogical
