A PROVERB.

Do you not like proverbs? We
do. Perhaps you remember this
short one which kindly crept into
cur column acknowledge and
Good-nature' short time ago:
Constant occupation prevents
temptation" 1t doesn't sound
very musical, but it has rupg in
our ears SO constantly, and the
thought has done US so m ch good,
that we are disposed to talk about
it little.
Some people think that word
temptation" is a fearful thing.
Don't be frightened at it. 1t
doesn't necessarily convey ideas
of lying, stealing, numbering and
such other horrible things? but
may apply to little things not near
ly so frightful and yet almost. as
powerful to do evil. If we could
only learn that it is little things
which trouble us and keep US back,
that it is little things that do us
good and help us on, it would be a
grander accomplishment on our
part than committing the whole
dictionary to memory, and far
more profitable.
How much happiness there is
sometimes made Ira this world by
a smile, how much sadness by q
frown! But you have heard this
sermon about "little things many
times already end we will not re
peat it. What we began to write
about, was how TO keep from being
troubled by temptations of any
sort, little Or large, foolish Or fend
ish.
The whole lessons given in that
little proverh: Constant occupa
ton prevents temptation" 1t is
an.excellent truth expressed in whar
q logican would call an "abstracs
manner. Stated 'concretely' il
might be expressed as follows:
If you feel inclined to trown, the
best way to keep from doing it is
to smile.
If you are tempted to be lazy, the
best way to drive away the inclin-
alton is to go to work.
If you have heard some evil
corrupt story which rings in your
ears and you know is poisoning
your mind, and your thoughts will
dwell upon it, the hest way to drive
the ugly thing away is to think a
bout something else, or read OIL
talk about something else.
In short, it means this: if you
want to refrain from doing some
thing wrong or unprofitable Dc

necessity of constant and active effort to
achieve that success, for We can say no more

quite impossible for the new Capitol TO

An Odd Mixture.

A New York correspondent tells the
following tough story: AT some of the
balls which have recently been given,
special accommodations were made for
ladies accompanied with babies. One
large room was changed into nursery,
and provided with cradles and cribs, so
as TO look more like founding hospital
or the infant department of an orphan
asylum than anything else. The other
night a party of young men by some
means obtained admission to the baby
department of the ball, and set them
selves to work at changing babies. No
less than fifty infants, between the ages
Of four months and four years, were
changed in as many seconds, and the
party made their escape just as the anx-
ions mothers, fresh from the triumphs of
the German, we're making their way to
the nursury to visit and refresh their
tootsy-wootsies. Such a scene as took

MIR. Bingham,s vehemenee.

Grace Greenwood speaks of Mr.. Bing-
ham, of Ohio, as follows:
Quite the opposite to him is Mr.. Bing-
ham, who yesterday made his great effort
on the Georgia bill. A most earnest,
imprisoned, rapid orator is he, gifted
with equal force and fuency. In speak
ing, he frequently leaves his seat-which
is one of the first line on the semi-circu-
lar space in front of the Speakers desk
and, after making point, returns in
silence, but only again to sally forth, re-
minding one of some fiery old animal
emerging from his den on foray, and re-
turning after victory. The old Scotch
woman, Boosting of the power of her
minister, said that "he had already
banged the insides out of twa Bibles"
and thought it was well for the Holy
Scriptures that no copy lay within reach
of Mr. Bingham vigorous whacks yes
terday. Neither Moses nor the prophets
could have stood before him. AS it was
he banged every desk in his vicinity, and
made all ring and rattle again. Mr..
Bingham is certainly very powerful
debater; and, could he only speak with
more deliberation and distinctness, would
be very impressive orator, He looks
like man Of power, and will, and am
bition.

How TO take Cold.

After any kind of exercise, do not
stand moment at street corner, for
anybody or anything; nor at an open
door or window. When you have been
exercising in any way whatever, winter
or summer, go home at once, or to some
sheltered place; and, however warm the
room may seem TO be, do not at once
pull off your hat and cloak, but wait a
Wholesome FIVE minutes or more, and
lay aside one thing at time; thus act
ing, cold is impossible. Notice mo-
ment: When you return from brisk
walk and you enter warm room, raise
your hat and your forehead will be moist;
let the hat remain few moments and
feel the forehead again, and it will be
dry, showing that the room is actually
cooler than your body, and that, with
outdoor clothing on, you have really
cooled off full soon enough. Many of
the severest colds | have ever known
men to take, were the result of sitting
down to warm meal in cool room
after long walk; or being engaged in
writing, have let the fire 90 out, and their
first admonition of il was that creeping
chilliness which is the ordinary forerun-
ner of severe cold. Persons have
often lost their lives by writing or read
ing in room where there was no fire,
although the weather outside was rather
comfortable. Sleeping in rooms long
unused has destroyed the life of many a
visitor and friend. Our splendid parlors
and our nice spare rooms help to en-
rich many a doctor Halls Journal Of

r ! y, or LearnIng a Trade.

A writer in the Manufacturer and
Builder pertinently asks; why isit that
there is such repugnance on the part
of parents TO putting their sons TO a
trader
A skilled mechanic is an independent
man. Go where he will his craft wilt
bring him support He need ask tavors
Of none. He has, literally, his fortune
in his own hands. Yet foolish parents
ambitious that their (" sons should rise in
the world" as they say, are more willing
that they should study for profession,
with the chances of even moderate sue
cess heavily against them, or run the risk
of spending their manhood in the ignoble
task of retailing dry goods or of tolling
laboriously at the accountants desk,
than learn a trade which would bring
them manly strength, health, and indie
pendence. In point of fact, the method
they choose is the one least likely to
achieve the advancement aimed at for
the supply of candidates for positions
as errand boys dry goods clerks,
and kindred occupations is noto-
riously overstoeked, while, on the
other hand, the demand for really
skilled mechanics of every description is
as VIGOROUSLY beyond the supply. The
crying need of this country to-day is for
skilled labor; and that father who ne
elects to provide his son with a useful
trade, and to see that he thoroughly mas
tiers it, does him q grievous wrong, and
runs the risk of helping, by so much, to
increase the stock of idle and dependent,
if not vicious, members of society.
tits stated in the report of the Prison
Association, lately issued, that of four
teen thousand FIVE hundred and ninety
six prisoners confined in the penitentia-
ries of thirty States in 1867, seventy
seven per cent, or over ten thousand Of
the number, had never learned a trade.
The fact conveys a lesson of profound
interest to those who have in charge the
training of boys, and girls, too, for the
active duties of life.
