YOUR HOUSE.
BY MRS. NJ. A. KIDDER.

BE tue to yourself at the start, young man,
Be true to yourself and God:
Ere you build your house mark well the
spot,
Test all the ground and build younot
On the sand or the shaking sod.
Dig, dig the foundation,deep, young man,
Plant firmly the outer wall;
Let the props be strong and the root be high,
Like an open turret towards the sky,
Through which heavens dews may fall.
Let this be the room Of the soul, young
man
When shadows shall herald care,
a chamber with never 4 roof or thatch
To hinder the Lighter door or latch
To shut out the spirits prayer.
Build slow and sure-'tis for life, young
man
a life that ouilives the breath;
For who shall gainsay the Holy Word:
''Their works do follow them,' saith the
Lord,
"Therein there is no DEATH
Build deep, and high, and broad, young
man,
As the needful case demands;
Let your title deeds be clear and bright,
Till you enter your claim TO the Lord Of
Light,
For the ''house not made with hands"

Every disciple of Izak Walton
knows that salmon will not take the
hook in their spawning journeys,
but it is not generally known that
the inhabitants of British Columbia
attributed to this fact the loss to
England of Oregon and Washington
Territory. In a recent speech de-
livered by DR.. Helmken in the Colo
NAL Assembly at Victoria, on the
San Juan boundary question, he
gave the following explanation Of
the causes which led TO the cession
of that country to the United States:
ain 1915, when negotiations were
pending between Great Britain and
the United States with respect to
the boundary line, Great Britain
claimed the country known as Ore
gon and Washington Territory.
The British ships of-war were sent
out to examine the country and re-
port to the British Ministry upon
its value. The Earl of Aberdeen
was Premier at the time; the. COM
mander of one of the ships was the
EarPs brother, and he and Others
went ashore at Columbia River and
tried to catch salmon with flies,
The salmon wouldn't take the flies,
and the officers caught no fish
When they returned to their ship
the Earl's brother wrote home
THE country is not worth farth'
ingn And the British Ministry re
| linquished all claims to it."

Success

The most important element Of
success is ecOnOmy-economy of
money and economy of time. By
economy we do not mean penurious-
ness, but merely such wholesome
thrift as will disincline to spend our
time or money without an adequate
return ,either in. gain or enjoyment.
An economical application of time
brings leisure and method, and ena-
bles us to drive our business, in
stead of our business driving u.s.
There is snothing attended with re-
suits so disastrous as such a amiscal-
culation of our time and means as
will involve us in perpetual hurry
and difficulty. The brightest talents
must be in effective undersuch pres
sure, and life of expedients has no
end bat penury. Worldly success,
however, through universally CO.
veted, can be only desirable in so far
as it contributes to happiness, and it
will contribute to happiness very
little, unless there be cultivated a
lively beneVolence to every anima-
tedsbeing. "Happiness," it has been
finely observed, sis in the proper
ton of the number of things we love,
and the'number of things that love
u.s." To this sentiment we most
cordially subscribe, and we should
wish to see it written on the table
ofevery heart, and producing its
ever DC @lr4t,aritV- The man, what
telligence, who can treat IIaS 4fAy- in
others woe-who is not bound q
his fellowmen by the magic tie OF
sympathy, deserves, ay, and Will op-
tain. the contempt of human kind.
Upon him all the gifts Of fortune are
thrown away. Happiness he has
none. His life is q dream, a mere
Iethargv, without thrOb of human
emotion; and he will descend to the
crave "unwept, unhonOred, and un-
Sung" Such a fate is not to be en-
We'd; and let those who are intent
upon success, remember that. sue
cess is nothing without happiness.

Moral Courage.

Have the courage to face a diff
Guilty, lest it kick you harder than
YOU bargained for. Difficulties like
thieves often disappear at a glance.
Have the courage to leave a convlv-
ial party at the proper hour for do
ing so, however great the sacrlhce;
and to stay away from one on the
slightest grounds for objection,
however great the temptation to go.
Have the courage to do without that
which YOU do not need, however
much YOU may admire it. Have the
courage to speak your mind when
it is necessary that you should do so
and hold your tongue when 1T Is
better Won should be silent. Have
the courage to speak to apoor friend
in a seedY coat, even in the street,
and when a rich one is nigh. The
effort is less than many people take
it to be, and the act is worthy of a
king.
Have the courage to admit that
YOU have been in the wrong, and
YOU will remove the fact IN the mind
of others, putting a desirable i'm
preston in the place of Al unfayora'
BILE one. Have the courage to ad
here to the first resolution WheT
YOU cannot change it for better, anC
to abandon il ut the eleventh hOul
upon conviction. Have the courage
to cut the most agreeable acquaint
ance you possess, when he lack
principle. y friend should bea
with a friends information'-no
vices.

Prayer n sweet Refuge.

Precious gift, that brings 30 near the things
that seem so far,
Heaven itself let down the earth with gates
ajar.
The riches and honors of this life
may, in a measure, conduce to our
happiness, and relieve our temporal
wants, but, ah, how small and fleet
ing they appear, when compared
with the sweet privilege of ap-
preaching the mercy seat, there to
breathe forth our wants and desires
to one who is ever waiting to bless.
Do we feel that our trials arc pecu-
liar, and that we must have sympa-
thy? How painful to rehearse ali to
an earthly friend; yet we can go and
tell Jesus with our hearts; he will
understand US, though our lips be
sealed with sadness.
To approach, in any way, those
10 whom the things OF this life have
seemed to make our superiors,
would summon our best courage;
but not so when we would ask any
favor at the hand Of God. All we
need is to feel our want, and ask
with childlike simplicity. Thanks
to his great name, He has promised
to never turn US away empty. Be-
lieving this, how it rests the burden
ed soul to shut out, for q season, the
world, with its many cares, and
hold communion with God, and feel
that we are casting our care upon
Him, for lie careth for u.s."

TiPsy SOngsters.

Good temperance people will be
shocked to learn what a sot-no
milder term can be used-the mock
ing bird makes of himself in Flor
ida. His special weakness is the
berry of the Pride of China tree, up
on the Juice of which he becomes as
drunk as a lord. n flock of upsy
mocking birds is very funny sight.
They fly around in the most conf
cal manner, hic-Coughiug, and stag
gering like real men, mixing up all
sorts of bacchanalian songs, and in
terrupting each other in the most
impudent manner, not at all ike well
behaved birds. 1t is even said that
they will fly out promiscuOusly, in
trude on domestic relations, forget
the way home, and get into each
others nests and families, just like
the lords of creation. 1t Is not i'm
probable that also, like the lords OF
creation, they become very penitent
after the season is gone and the year
" frolic is over, and that they make
many good resolutions, join the
temperance society, and keep sober
till the next seaeon comes around,
and the berries are ripe once more.
AS they are knocking BIRDS" ii Is
not out of the way to suppose that
they are only initiating men.

AT HOME.

When was dead, my spirit turned
To see the much frequented house,
/ passed the door, and saw my friends
Feasting beneath green orange boughs;
From hand to hand they pushed the wine
They sucked the pulp of plum and peach
They sang, tn ey jested, and they laughed
For each was loved Of each.
listened to their honest chat;
SAID one "To-morrow we shall be
Flooding along the measureless sands,
And coasting miles and miles Of sea-
Said one: "Beiore the turn of tide
We will achieve the eyrie-seat."
Said one: "To-morIow shall be like
To-day, but much more sweet.
Tomorrow said they, strong with hope
And dwelt upon the pleasant way;
Tomorrow" cried they, one and all,
While no one spoke of yesterday.
Their life stood full at blessed noon!
j, only 1, had passed away;
Tomorrow and to-day" they cried;
/ was Of yesterday.
l shivered comfortless, but cast
No chill across the table-cloth;
/, all forgotten, shiyered, sad
TO stay, and yet to part how 10th;
l passed from the familiar room,
who from love adpassed away,
Like the remembrance of guest
That tarrieth but a day.

"Order what you WILL" he said

The evening of the ball Lou was
disappointed that her husband did
not come home in time to see her
dressed; but she could not keepher
party waiting, and was obliged to
go off without seeing him. Pa
Half an hour later EalconeF came
home. He enquired of the house
maid, who had been aroused from a
nap by the violent jerking of the
parlor bell, if her mistress had gone
out and sleepy as the girl was, she
was startled (as she afterward aver
red) "by the look of his face " as he
dismissed her.
He went 10 his own room, where
little Eddie lay asleep, but turned
abruptly from the peaceful picture.
The heavy ice of despair lay on his
heart. Falconer Il Frost had failed,
and he was a defaulter to the
amount of more thousands than he
| could ever hope TO repay; his good
name was gone; nothing out beg

the disgrace would be reflected on
his wife and child. He passed to
his dressing-room, turned the key
on the inside, and ten minutes later
the neighbors were startled by the
report of a pistol. They forced the
door and found that TO the name of
bankrupt" aud ''swindler," /" which
had been applied 10 him as soon as
the failure had been made public, he
had added that OF suicide.
They were fearful tidings that
reached his wife's ear in the midst
of the festivities, and hurried her
home and vainly might she, in
frantic accents, call on that lifeless
form "only to speak TO her once
mOre," and she would be content to
live on dry crusts in hovel for the
rest of her days"

non,t be Too sen.l,Ive.

There are some people-yes,
many people-always looking out
for Sights. They cannot carry on
the daily course of the family with
out some offense is designated.
They are as touchy as hair triggers.
If they meet an acquaintance on the
street who happens TO be pre-occu-
pied with business, they attribute
his abstraction in some mode per-
sonal to themselves, and take um-
bragg accordingly. They lay on
others the fault of their irritability.
A fit of indigestion makes them see
impertinence in everybody they
come in contact with. Innocent
persons, who never dreamed OF Of
tense, are astonished TO find some
unfortunate word or some momen-
tary taciturnity, mistaken for an in
suit. To say the least, the habit is
unfortunate. 1t is so far the wiser
TO take the more charitable view of
our fellow-beings, and not suppose
a Slight is intended unless the neg
let is open and direct. After all,
too, life takes its use in a great de-
gree from the color ofour mind. III
we are frank and generous, the
world treats US kindly. If, on the
contrary, we are suspicious, men
learn TO be cautious 20 us. Let a
person get the reputation Of being
touchy, and everybody is under
more or less restraint; and in this
way the chances of an imaginary IN
suit are vastly increased.

An Amusing CoIIOquy.

into the middle of the room. "Hell.
Do YOU believe that anybody who
lives in Chicago ever goes to hell:''
His customer responded that he
feared a great many had gone, and
that a great many more, who wore
living like the Individual before
him, were on the way there. Al
this the agitation of the barber
reached fits climax, and throwing
himself in most imposing attitude
and putting on a face of awful
solemnity, he cried out: Its utter.

that .recuperation and progression

stand still and leave their destiny
TO chance. There is no question of
chance, il is Gods decree upwards
or downwards they must go; and 10

antly, to elect to go downwards.

"Generation after generation,

Wit is sometimes worth money,
but it is quite essential to have q
good-natured customer to deal with,
When Allan Ramsey, the great
Scotch poet, began life, he was SO
poor that he could not meet his first
half years rent. After it became
due he met his landlord and ex-
planned the circumstances and ex-
pressed his distress at his failure to
meet his obligations. The jolly
landlord was quite kind to him, and
said that, as he was a lad of some
genius, he would give him chance
to cancel his debt without q shil-
ling.
"If," said the creditor, "yOu'll
give me rhyming answer TO four
questions, in as many minutes, Ill
quit you the rent altogether"
Allen said he would try. The
questions were: "What does God
love?"
"What does the diviI love?"-
"What does the world love?-
"What do love"
Ramsey wrote:
''God loves man when he Tefrains from sin
The devil loves man when he persists
therein;
And you'd love me, could 1 pay you what
l owe"
"The rent is paid" said the far
mer, giving his ingenious tenant a
hearty slap on the shoulder.

Death of n Man-wOman.

Mr.. Samuel Buck, an eccentric
character we'll known i'll the vicinl-
ty of Conneaut, Ohio, died recently
near that village at an advanced
age. He is represented to have been
a man of good family, and with
fair education and natural abilities,
but possessed of a strong passion TO
ape the manners of the opposite sex.
For many wears he had lived alone,
and, with surprising facility, he per-
formed all:the duties of a housewife
and farmer at once. In the morning
he would don wOman's attire,
which became his delicate person
well, prepare breakfast, eat: and
having put the house in order, would
unpin his chignOn, exchange hi;
hoopskirts for trowsers, and go oul
to plough OF chop wood, as the cast
might be, till noon, when he coulC
appear in the role of lady cook. HI
was very fastidious in his tates, and
when attired as a fashionable wo
man, with his long, wellkept hal
done up la mode, he would recely
and entertain company so GRACEFUL.
and naturally as to deceive all eX
! cent those who knew him, and al
ways seemed quite unconscious tina
he was playing q borrowed part.
