ProVidentially Directed.

Among the attendants of late Meth
odist Conference, was n very beautiful
and intelligent looking young lady,
who drew the admiring gaze of many
eyes, particularly eyes masculine, al
ways on the lookout for feminine faces.
During the intermission at noon,
spruce young minister stepped up to the
Presiding Elder, and said, with an air of
secrecy:
"Did you observe that young lady
who sat by the first pillar on the left ?''
"Yes," said the Elder. "What Of
her?n
"Why," said the young man, 81 feel
impressed that the Lord desires me to
take that lady for my wife. I think she
would make a good companion and
helpmate in the work of the ministry"
The Elder, as a good Christian ought,
had nothing to object.
But, in a few moments, another can
didate for ministerial efforts and hon
ors, and for the name of husband came
coniidentially to make known like i'm
preston regarding the same identical
young lady.
"YOu had better wait awhile. 1t is
not best to be too hasty in determining
the source of such impressions" said
the more prudent ElueF.
And he said well; for hardly were the
steps of the second youth cold at his
side, ere a third approached with the
same story, and while the worthy conf
dent still marvelled, fourth drew near
with the question:
"Did you notice the fine, nOble-look-
ing woman on your left ?n
"Yes," cried the swelling Elder.
"Weil, sir" went on the fourth vic
tim of that unsuspicious girl, cit is
strongly borne in upon my mind that it
is the will of the Lord that l should
make proposals Of marriage to that lady.
He has impressed me that she is to be
my WIFE"
The Elder could hold in no longer.
'Tmpossible! impOssible"' he ex-
claimed i'm an excited tone, 'the Lord
never could have intended that four
men should marry that one woman!

The Sexes.
ARr As Al occrrAr1oN ron wonAN.

AAI ~ An OCCUPATION FuE WOMAN.
My own belief is, that we have no
grounds for and no right in making any
difference whatsoever in human beings
on account of sex, either in their edu-
cation or occupations, more than Nature
has done; and that half of the troubles
we find in the world would arise from,
and are just judgment upon, our pre-
sumption in making any distinction be-
tween them in fostering the self-conceit
OF the one and sacrificing the independ-
ence of the other. Let the same educa-
tion, from the first to the last, physical
and mental, be furnished for both sexes;
let it be accepted that, as they will need
the same physical sustenance, so they
will need the same intellectual food;
that the two who will in time become
one flesh shall be in union and harmony
with each other, i'm attainments and de-
sires, in their minds as well rs their
bodies, and then we shall have the per-
feet harmony in difference.
The compensation which appears to
me Nature makes to women for the
comparative Withholding of muscular
strength, is endowing them with greater
power of endurance in the first place,
and gift OF natural aptitude and quick
ness, WHICH, Nnen IL exists IN men, we
call mother wit. Thus we see that whilst
men become irritated and impatient of
the repetition of little troubles and would
put violent end to them, women, like
charity, are long suffering and kind over
vexations, which in their connection
with their children and other cares often
last daily for years. The quickness and
aptitude they have may be the support
which nature gives them through their
instincts, as a balance to mems muscu-
lar superiority; and this seems to me to
indicate that the sensitive touch and
quick perception and delicate hand point
out the practice of art rs peculiarly
adapted for wOman's occupation, be-
ing i'm itself the most refined and deli
cate of all manual labor as it is also the
most perfect expression OF the impress
siOns we receive, through our eyes, OF
physical phenOmena.-Fd Waller Smith.
