"AND Satan has some mischief still for
idle hands to do" Very true; but the
man who cultivates taste for reading is
never idle; he is never lonesome; time
never drags on his hands. Sunday is not

cease to labor, but an occasion upon
which he should strive to improve his
mind. Wiederhold keeps on hand a
splendid supply of newspapers, periodi-
calls and pictorials.
