rest to the joys Of life. All is blank, and.
there IS no hope or succor except that

LITTLE THoRNs.-The sweetest, the
most clinging affection is often shaken by
the slightest breath Of uukindness. as the
delicate rings and tondrils of the vine are
agitated by the %faintest air that blows in
summer, An unkind word from one
beloved often draws blood from MANY a

the keenest edge Of yindictive satire. Nay.
the shade, the gloom of the face familiar

These are the little thorns, which. though
men of rougher form may make their
way through them without feeling them

Walter Savage Lanor used TO relate an
anecdote of an English Judge, who being
on circuit two old men were brought before
him as witnesses, and, according to custom,
he began to chat with them, among other
things, about their age, for the purpose of
giving moral lesson to the young barris-
ters.
"Well, my good man, said he to the
first witness, show old may you be ?''
"About eighty seven, my lord"
81 dare say, now, you have lived very
sober life."

the gentlemen of the bar, "you see what
fine thing sobriety is The witness looks
as though he would live twenty years
more"
The bsrIisters nodded assent. In his
turn, another witness came forward who
looked particularly hale and robust.
"And how old are you, friend ?" inquir-
ed the judge.
"Ninety-five, my lord" was the reply.
"Ninety-five I'll answer for II, you
have led sober life-haven't you ?'
Witness hung his head and answered
81 don't like to answer afore all these
gentlemen"
"NeveI mind speak out"
"Well, them my lord, l haven't gone to

AT this his lordship looked rather blank,
and the bar smiled. The judge then said !;
