II is good sign when man is proud Of
his work or his calling. Yet nothing is more
common than to hear men finding fault con-
stanty with their particular business, aud
decming themselves unfortunate because fast

hood. In this men fret, aud laboriously de.
stroy all their comfort in the work or they
change their business, aud go on miserably,
shifting from one thing to another till the
grave or the poor-house gives them fast grip.
But while occasionally man fails in life be-
cause he is not in the place fitted for his pecu-
liar talent, it happens ten times oftener that
failure results from neglect and even contempt
Of an honest business A man should put his
heart into everything that he does. There is
40 profession that has not its peculiar cares

by changing his business. No mechanical
business is altogether agreeable. Commerce,
10 its endless varieties is affected like all
others pursuits with trials, unwecome duties,
aud spiri,-tiring necessities. 1t is the very wan

lireis and burdens of his calling, and give his
mind every day to consideration of them

IF all our troubles we're single few men
would complain Of them. But when they
come in iloeks and crowds then people cry out
against them. But do they not always come
single, and do we not keep them, and pile
them up and put yesterdays troubles upon
morrow, until we break down under them.
Troubles do not come in packs, like hounds,
but come single, and can be mot one by one
and conquered or borne. A woodpile can
not be carried in the arms, but separate it
into single sticks and child can say to it,,
BE thou removed to yonder place. and it
shall be done. So trouble, in bulk, cannot be
borne, but trouble, taken as it comes day by
day, is ballast, keeping the mind steady

quicker motion on the roughest waters,

Jesns our Refnge.

The friend who narrntes this interesting in-
cident vouches for its truth in every particu.
lar:
A family from the North of Wales sailed
from Liverpool to make home in the New
World. For few days, with fair wind
aud a clear sky, the vessel made good speed,
and there was on board that peculiar buoy.
ancy Of heart which is often only the pre-.
lude to a great sorrow. The young emigrants
spent many pleasant hours in laying plans for
their future home, and as they looked away
to the west in hope, their little child playing
on deck was scarcely less conscious Of danger
than they,
But a storm rose, and the sea grew dark
with the tempest. The ship became wreck
and, in the confusion, the mother was separa.
ted from her husband and child, and was
given up for lost. The father and his little
one cluug to a piece of the wreck and were
picked up by passing vessel and carried
back to Liyerpooli and, returning to his old
home with broken heart, he gave up all
the pleasant dreams of new home across
the sea.
On the next day after the storm, sailing
vessel lay becalmed. The captain saw lit.
tie speck far of upon the waters, and as he
could make no progress he sent out two men
to bring it in. The idle crew watch them
aud when they draw near, they rest on their
oars and listen for moment, and with all
speed hasten on. Aud when they return
with the object Of their search, this is their
story "When we came near we heard the
voice of singing, and when we rested our oars
we could hear woman's voice floating over
the sea, singing the words;
Jesus, Savior Of my soul,
Let me to thy bosom fly,
While the waters near mo roll,
While the tempest still is high
Hide me- o my Savior hide
TIL the storm Of life Is past;
Safe into the haven guide
Oh receive my soul at last
Other refuge have / nonoj
llanrs MY helpless soul on thee
Leave, all leave me not alone,
Still support and comfort
All my trust on thee Is stayed,
All my help from thee bring
Cover my detenceless head
With the shadow Of thy wing.
1t was the lost mother, having given up all
hope of the earthly home and its companion
ship, turning in love to the heavenly home
aud to Jesus her refuge. After few weeks
the family were reunited, and for many
years they have enjoyed that new home Of
which they were dreaming on that il-iated
voyage.

I Management OF Children.

There can think, be no greater disaster
IN the home, no greater mistake in the at
tempt to manage a family, than the failure Of
Of the two parents to make their authority
absolutely one. The household in which, for
any reason or from any cause conflict of
authority exists, is the saddest Of sights to
one who wishes well to children. There
should be earnest conference between parents
concerning the best methods and objects !;
there should be perfect unanimity in the gen.
eral system Of management adopted by them.
It is uBspeakably better to make some mis-.
take in unison, than to let the minds of chill
dren get confused as to whom they shall
obey Let the father and mother speak with
one voice. if they wish the voice of either to
be respected. Appeals from one to the other
should never be permitted. Where this is
allowed, wretchedness of many kinds ensues,
and management gives place to mismanage-
ment.-J. Z. ABBOTT, in Hearth and Home.

one day after school, were engaged in snow.
balling, William had made a good hard
SNOWFALL. In throwing it, he "put in too
much powder" as the boys say-he threw it
too hard, and it went farther than he intend
ed, right through parlor window All the
boys shouted, There, you'll catch it now
Run, Bill, runw They took to their heels.
But William Strengthened up and said, 81
shall not run" He went directly to the
house where the window had been broken. lie
rang at the door, acknowledged what he had
done, and said he was sorry. lie then gave
his name, and the name of his father, and Of
his fathers place of business, and said the
damage should be paid for. That was true
courage. 1t is cowardce that would lead a
boy, when he has done an injury like that to
sneak away and run to conceal It, instead Of
standing up and facing the consequences -

A Compile OF Graves.


During recent eIrand to Lancaster-.-that
quaint and rich old Pennsylvania city--we
visited the resting places of two historic char.
acters-James Buchanan and Thaddeus Ste
yens.
Mr.. Buchanan lies in Woodhil Cemetery-a
picturesque and most romantic burial ground,
the Greenwood or Mt. Auburn Of Lancaster.
Mr. Stevens sleeps in what looks like gar.
den spot, in the heart of the city-an acre de-
voted to the dead in the midst Of the living
a burial place known as Sheriner's grave
yard, so-called from being mostly occupied
with the mortal remains Of single family
and their defendants. The brave old states
man wanted to be buried there because the
other cemeteries excluded the bodies of me-
groes, and this one recognized the common
clay Of all Of Gods children and gave equal
welcome to white and black
Mr.. Buchanan, who during his life held
himself aloof from the negro, lies at proud
distance from him in death, maintaining
among the worms which are feeding on both
that aristocracy of race which his administra-
ton attempted to perpetuate, but which an
overruling Providence obliterated in blood
A solid block of marble--CaucasiaD in its
whiteness bears this inscription;
Here lies the remains OF
JAMES BUCHANAN.
Fifteenth President OF the United
States,
Born In Franklin county, Pa,
April %, 1891,
Died at Wheatland, June |, 1868.
Mr. Stevens sumbers under a mound which
has nothing but grass to cever it, except as
some chance passenger throws flower or two
in tribute to the old hero's memory. Nobody
could tell why there was no monument. 1t
is three years or more since the dead lion
was laid there to moulder away and ua.
less republics are permitted to be ungrateful,
or executors to be parsimonious, there is no
excuse of some granite shaft, or obelisk, to tell
