Praying to t-ae Point.

A CERTAIN lawyer, who, whilom, dwelt In
one of our New England towns noted for its
over.reachiogs and shortcomings during a
revival, came under conviction. His ap-
peals were responded to by one Of the saints
an eccentric but very pious old man, honest,
plain, blunt, square-toed and fat-footed who
thus went at it:
"We do most earnestly entreat thee, Oh
Lord, to sanctify our penitent brother here !;
fill his heart with goodness and grace, SO
that he shall hereafter forsake his evil ways,
and follow in the right path. We do not
know, however, that it is required of him
who has appropriated worldly goods to him
self unlawfuIly and dishonesty, that be shall
make restitution four-fold, but we do besecch
thee have mercy on this our erring brother,
as it would be i'm possible for him to do this,
and let him off for the best be can do with
out beggaring himself entirely, by paying
twenty-five cents on the dollar
The next applicant at the meeting, was
an elderly maiden who got her living by 60
ing into different families, and spinning for
them She, also, had been famous for her
short comings-never giving full accounts
on her yarn the forty threads to knot,
was point to which she very seldom reached.
The blunt old man briefly disposed of her
case:

wilt thou enable her to count forty p

The TRUE Observation-Disclosures of the al
legged inhumanity Of mankind is owing to
their being deceived. If people are sure of
an accident or a calamity, crowds hasten to
relieve it. By veracity we charm in con-
versation; by sincerity we influence opin-
ions; by trust worthiness we render friends
loving and secure, add to general confidence
of men in men, and Ivy thus Strengthening
the foundation of society, acquire the right
to an analogous personal sense of wo;th and
frmness. Truth gives a sense of security
to the strongest. The true man has but
one answer to give to interrogators, one sto,
ry to tell them, nobody's face to fear.

Mem who Win Women.

God has SO made the sexes that women,
like children, cling to men-lean upon them
as though they were superior in mind and
body They make them the suns of their
systems, and their children revolve around
them. Men are gods, if they but knew it,
and women burn incense at their shrines -
Women, therefore, who have good minds
and pure hearts want men to lean upon
Think of their reverenclng drunkard,
liar or libertne. If a man would have a
woman to do him homage, he must be man
ly in every sense; true gentleman, not af
ter the Chesterfield school but polite, because
his heart is full of kindness to all one who
treats her with respect, even Difference, be-
cause she is woman ; who never conde-
cends to sa ~ things to her /; who brings
her to his level, ifabis mind is above hers
who is never over anxious to please but al
ways anxious to do right who has no time
to be frivolous with her. Always dignifed
in speech and act who never spends too
much upon her, never yields to temptation,
even if she puts it in his way who is am.
bilious to make his mark in the world,
whether she encourages him or not; who is
not over careful about dress, always pleas.
ant and considerate, but always keeping his
place of the man, the head, and never looa.
ing it. Such department, with noble prin-
ciples, good mind, energy and industry,
will win any woman in the world who is
worth winning.

Poetry.
I'm the Brighter Days to Cone.

Al aEhV IbEES aR1GA EVSdS SV OAsa(
In the brighter days to come,
We shall forget the gloom
That falls around the weary heart
Like shadows of the tomb.
The sunshine then will brightly fall
Upon life's golden store
And cares that throng our pathway now
Will come to us no more.
1t is the dream of brighter hours
That cheers my heart to-day,
When roses, blushing through the thorns,
Will gladden. all my way.
And if no starry crown be set
On life's unfading tree.
Hope whispers that a chaplet wreath
Is waiting there for me.
Alas how many pilgrims here
Are watching long in vain,
For brighter days of happiness
To come to them sgain.
They never see how cold and dark
The shadows round them lie,
For hopes bright star sends its pure ray
Athwart the frowning sky.
If here there never comes to us
The joy for which we wait,
TITS that sweet voice that leads Us still
Up to the pearly gates
1t is the angel Hope that comes
A messenger of love-
To brighten all the hours of life
And leads US home above.
