A BUSY LITTLE BEE.

Here is another little bee,
As busy as any you can see,
| have half mind 10 kiss her
She is minding her little bro Their,
To save trouble to her mother
And oh how mother would miss her
What trouble little brother can give,
He will tumble, as sure as you live.
He wrigglss and squiggles about,
And out Of your arms he goes,
Like water out ola sieve,
Uuless you hold fast by his clothes
And that before any one knows
He is so slippery about the legs,
And his thighs are as smooth as eggs
And then, too, hcnever will settles
He grubs about everywhere
For such things to put into his mouth,
Such as bits Of crockery or metal
Good neither for hunger nor drOuthD
Or no wants with the scissors to play
Well, these must be taken away,
And then he goes into a tantrum,
And has to be soothed and made reasonable,
With words that are sensible and seasonable.
Dear little Busy Bee
Not the ne but she)-
For all her watching and tracking him,
She never thinks Of smacking him;
She uses her hands for caresses,
For caresses and no other,
Though fear her baby brother
Sometimes pulls hard at her tresses,
And spoils her dear little dresses
OF all the Busy-busy Bees,
This is one Of the best;
For kindness is her motto.

Let us seek rather the kingdom of God
and his righteousness and all things shall
be added unto us let us throw off our coats,
aud, leaving the question of the Trinity an
open one, teach the poor and the lowly that
cleanliness is next to godiness; let us try to
save and cleanse what of womanhood is left
in "poor and common" and seek out little
wrongs as hidden treasure that we may
put little right in their place let us frown
down waste, for God has only made enough
of each thing let US honor toll, for toll is
the sunshines brother; let us seek the heart
of man, for there is eternal life, and not ask
tOomuch of his head, for that fruit is not yet
ripe.

When person is in puzzle, being come
to point in life where many roads meet,
and there is no sign.post, there is no greater
mistake than to try to direct yourself by
your reason. 1t won't help at all, for ten to
one, it is biased by inclination. Neither are
friends very likely to help, for they can, for
the most, only decide according to what you
tell them. The first little sign of duty that
comes, if it is only in the way of setting your
house to rights, or casting up your accounts,
is the sign-post set up by Gods providence,
and when that is done, he will be sure to
open the way wider, if you only have pa
thence to wait. But we are apt to overlook
the little duty, and think we will attend to
it when we have settled the great one and
50 we set out on the wrong road, perhaps
never to regain the right one.

HOW TOT SPOKE OUT IN SUM-

Tot was going to Sunday school. Now,
Tot was the smallest, rOundest, and sweetest
four-year old baby in New York State--so
her mamma said-and as she had only been
to Sunday school once before, she was quite
excited over it.
"Mes do-in, mamma I" she said, with tri-
umphant toss of her golden curls "TOt is a

THE INVISIBLE CHILDREN.

Oh, it is not when your children are with
you, it is not when you see and hear them,
that they are most to you; it is when the
sad assembly is gone; it is when the daises
have resumed their growing again in the
place where the little form was laid it is
when you have carried your children out,
and said farewell, and come home again, and
day and night are full of sweet memories it
is when summer and winter are full of touch
os and suggestions Of them; it is when you
cannot look up toward God without thinking
Of them nor look down toward yourself and
not think of them it is when they have gone
out Of your arms, and are living to you only
BY the power Of the Imagination, that they
are the most to you. The invisible children,
are the realest children, the sweetest children,
the truest children, the children that touch
our hearts az no hands of flesh ever could
touch them.

Boston, with fair success, and though the lofty
literary lights there shone rather frigidly upon
him, the newspaper boys took him up cordi ally,
dined him at the Parker House, showed him

Funnel Hall, the Burnt District, &C.; and, in
short, gave him front view Of the sacred and
Inimtable institutions of the Hub.
