anecdote related by Sydney Smith, in speak

is applicable to Bourbons, who do not rec

the stern fact that the people are tired Of cliques

I'm the Winter of 1912 there set in a
great food upon the town Of sldmouth. The
tide roes to an Incredible height. The
waves rushed in upon the houses. and every

beach, was seen ct the door Of her house
with mop and patterns. squeezing out the

Practical Ideas.

To be good housekeeper requires educa
ton and practice; but if woman's heart il
in the work she will soon learn, if NECESSITY
places the duty before her.
When the comfort and prosperity of g
loved husband renders it necessary to econo-
mize and live to the best advantage with small
means, devoted yife will turn her thought
and care to tie duties Of her homs
The help of good, careful, prudent house
keeper, enables maa to advance his bus
ness prospects more than anything else vo
man can do.
The superficial accomplishments of board
lng-school miss are nothing compared to 8
practical education in all that pertains to ma
king home attractive, and sensible men know
it.
It is very imposing to witness the majestic
sweep of yards upon yards of, expensive silk
founces and laces into parlor, but, young
man, it requires large income to support SO
much style.
1t is delightful to talk with young lady
who knows French, and all the latest novels,
and to have divine creature dispense hex
best skirmishes of flirting with her eyes,
smiles and fan, but, young man, there oft is
but little heart or sincerity in such practised
charms. A girl who has only common
school education, and the accomplishments
taught her by loving mother, of cooking
and all other domestic duties, will be more
likely to make you good wife.
She may not have the nost polished ad-
dress. She may not be able to entangle you
with battalions of arts and wles with which
petted fashionable belle surrounds and cap:
lures beaux, but she will prize the love of an
honest heart more, and in truth and sincerity
devote her life to rcquitting the love and
kindness given her.
If your income be only few hundreds a
year, fashionable devotee of style and heart
smashing will in few years fret herself into
miserable wreck, and be a dead weight upon
you; while fresh-hearted, domestic girl Will
develop into blooming matronly woman Of

THE EVENING HEARTHSTONE.

Gladly now we gather round it,
For the toiling day is done,
And the gray and solemn twilight
Follows down the golden sun.
Shadows lengthen on the pavement,
Stalk like giants through the gloom,
Wander past the dusky easement,
Creep around the fre-lit room.
Draw the curtain, close the shutters,
Place the slippers by the fire;
Though the rude wind loudly mutters,
What care we for wind sprite's ire?
What care we for outward seeming!
Tickle Fortunes frown or smile?
If around us love is beaming,
Love can human ills beguile!
Meath the cottage roof and palace,
From the peasant to The king,
All are quaEng from lifes chalice
Bubbles that enchantment bring.
Crates are glowing, music flowing
From the lips we love the best;
Oh, the joy, the bliss of knowing
There are hearts wherein to rest
Hearts that throb with eager gladness-
Hearts that echo to our own
While grim care and haunting sadness
Mingles meier in look or tone.
Care may tread the halls Of daylight,
Sadness haunt the midnight hour,
But the weird and witshing twilight
Brings the glowing hearthstones dover,
Altar Of our hottest feelings
Childhood's well remembered shrine
spirit-y earnings-son reyealings-
Wreaths immortal round thee Irvine.

A BEAUTIFUL INcIDENT.-On a bcauti-
full summers day, clergyman was called
TO preach to young Episcopal congregation.
At the close of his discourse, he addressed his
young hearers in such words as these:
'Learn that the present life is a prepara-
ton for and has a tendency to eternity. The
present is linked to the future throughout
creation, in the vegetable, in the animal,
and in the moral world AS is the seed, SO
is the fruit; as is the egg, so is the fowl; as
is the boy, SO is the man; and as is the ra-
tional being in this world SO will he be in

Enoch walking with God 10 calm and bet
ter world. beseech you, live then, for a
tread upon, and learn lesson of wisdom
The very caterpillar seeks the food that fos-
tcrs it for another and similar state; and
more wisely than man, builds its own sep
ulchre from whence 10 time by a kind resur-
| rection, it comes forth new creature in al
most an angelic form And now that which
craw!ed flies and that which ted on COM
paratively gross food, sips the dew and revels
in the rich pastures, an emblem of that par
adise where flows the river of life and grows
the tree of life. Could the caterpillar have
| diverted from its proper element and mode
of life, if it had Eever attained the butterfly s
splendid form and hue; it had persisted a
| worthless worm. Consider her ways and be
wise. Let it not be said that ye are more
negligent than worms and that your reason
is less available than their instinct. AS Of
ten as the butterfly fits ACROSS your path, re-
member that it whispers in its flight, olive
for the future"
With this the preacher closed his dis
course; but to deepen the impression, a but
terhy, directed by the Hand which guides
alike the san and atom in its course,
futtered through the church, as if commits
stoned by Heaven to repeat the exhortation-
There was neither speech nor language, but
its voice was heard saying to the gazing au-
dience olive for the future"
