4 Human Life.

What a wonderful thing n human life is
Who considers it rightly2 | do not now
mean some human life, but any human life
mot the life of the great more than the
little. On some day,-and it matters not
when or where, the good God, Father Of
JUS all, lays little babe on a woman's
breast. 1t is a wee thing, just breathing a
soft, sweet breath, the faintest ripple Of an
unconscious lile,-the merest germ. 1t is
the dawn of an immortal history of strange,
! was about to write divine, consciousness.
Earthquakes rend the globe, great forces
convulse, it may be, the material universe
but in that fragile bosom are stored poten-
cies mightier than all material agencies
not so obvious, but infinitely greater. Help
less it lies there on the pillow of maternal
love, The fountain springing at its lips,
nourishes il. 1t drinks and sleeps and
grows. A little while and its dull eye
grows bright Inquisitive wonder looks
out between the lids. The days and weeks
and months swell into years. The baby is
boy, the boy youth, the youth man.
Mastering up the years to the drum-beat Of
each pulse, como joys and sorrows, hopes
and loves. Young manhood, with its witch
ing ardors and exciting, but too deusive
hopes, stands, flushed with pride and nmbi-
tion, before us. Real life is in the cihng.
AS yet, it opens with brightness and beauty.
The gathering clouds show only the silver
linings--it is smorniug, with the sweet breath
Of spring But on behind these come other
years. The dun level of middle manhood
and mature age, crowds quick upon the
vanishing hold of youth. Now life is real
and earnest. Sorrows and cares and labors
flood all the moments to their brim, and
heartaches and weariness come with the
mornng and thicken to the evening. The
great, hard world with its manifold evils,
and the stormy eternity, with its terrors,
open upon the gaze of the immortal spirit.
The struggle is brief Death strikes one
part Of life has been lived-the greater
part remains. Such is the outline Of each
human history. TO one there is more Of
evil, to another more of good but the story
is the same. Among these lives come oc-
casionally one Of more than ordinary beauty,
and men love to gaze on it and linger over
it. II is the charm Of the generation-oi
the ages. When il vanishes, darknes:

ooh, no I'm only a little tired
that is all
One evening she kept me by the sofa
much longer than was her custom, while
she arranged lessons, and laid out work
enough il seemed to me, for months.
"Nhy so much to-niehtr | inquired,
conscious that my heart ached, and vaguely
suspcciing the cause.

and | am anxious that you shall have suf-
iloont work TO anticipate as well as to

almost sobbing

boy before long, what shall | say to her p
Then | knew ALL and my grief knew
no bounds. It is no use to 60 on. She
died i'm two days after; and when hear
folks saying, There is woman at the
bottom Of IT, feel like telling the whole
world what a woman did for me"

What Ny Little Boy Taught Ne.


Tommy, come to mamma
a sullen little face, with scowlng brows
and pouting lips, appeared at the door.
" What have you got TO do?"
" ! We got to stay in bed all day" And
With the words Tommy ierked of his jack
ct, and kicked one boot across the chamber
floor.
What naughty thing have you been
doing2"
Spelling the Gala lily"
The words, tone and manner of the little
boy Of six were so hard and defiant that
vague alarm seized me, and | said gently :;
Come here, my poor little laddie and
get in mamma's bed. You look very cold :"
The downcast eyes were lifted in strange,
glad surprise, and the remaining garments
were laid aside softly. Slowly, shyly and
quesiioningly the little fellow crept in by
my side and lay quite still
Now, Tommy, tell mamma all about it,"
" | only Just pinched the littlest leaf
wanted to sec what it was rolled up so
tight for There's ever so many more"
Yes, Tommy, but no more like this
one. All the year you have seen these lit
tie rolls unfold into broad, glossy, green
leaves but this one, Tommy, was a bud
If you had watched, without touching it,
you would have seen it grow larger and
lighter in color, until some bright morning
you would have run down stairs, to shout
and clap your little hands over the most
beautiful flower you ever beheld 1t would
have looked up lovingly into your face from
its heart Of gold, and its pure velvet lips
would have smiled upon you for letting it
live and bloom. am so sorry you hurt
the dear little bud, that now can never be
a flower
" Can't it be mended mamma ?"
No, dear"
You mended the cup broke"
Yes darling A broken China cup
may be made whole again buta sweet lit
Tie bud, waiting to become a rich, golden
flower, pinched and torn by cruel fingers,
can never be restored"
And God cannot restore it, mamma ?'
The penitence, pathos and despair of the
child's face was indescribable | drew the
little form TO my breast in silent awe.
I'm most as bad as Cain, mamma,
sobbing heavily.
How is that, dear ?"
I've killed something. But, mamma
| did not mean to, truly didn't know
was hurting the little bud. III mover touch
a plant again-only look att, mamma, anC
love it, and wait for the morning, when it'll
be great beautiful flower"
Precious little teacher! What lessor
for US mothers In the hurry and worry
Of this toiling, moiling world, are we no
in momentary danger, as we walk in the
garden of our homes, Of pinching, if moi
killing, something2 Think of the tragedy
it would be, if, through our haste and heed
lessness, we should crush and destroy the
bud of tenderness, so full and bursting il
the heart of child, and give to society (
callous, unieeling man or woman There
are such in every community. Did tn,
good God, whose name is Love, make then
so? Who, then, is the wretched culprit
And whore shall he or she be found in tha
great and awful morning when the Lord o
the Garden shall demand the full and glo
rious flower which was to have been de
veloped and perfected from the sweet littl
bud given into the bosom Of father an
mother r?-Home Guardian.

Reality, not Fancy.


There is such a thing as sin and there
is danger in sin---danger to the body
danger to the understanding danger to the
affections; danger to the taste and the i'm
agination danger to the conscience dan
ger in this life and above all, most ap-
palling danger in the life that is to come
For, as a man dies, so shall he rise again
As he leaves this world, so he starts in the
other. If he is environed with evil habits
if he is filed full of sins and transgressions
that is the capital with which he begns.in
the life that is to come.
l beseech Of you, my young friends, so
many of you as have come down hither,
not to be misled by the vain show Of the
world into which you are introduced. |
beseech of you who have come hither re-
Gently, and are already beginning, in the
place where you are, to be ashamed Of your
Bibles, and are forgetting the promise
which you made to your mothers, and the
VOWS which you made to yourselves, do not
suffer yourselves to be shared. Surely, in
vain is the fowlers snare set right in your
sight, and you put your foot in it and are
caught
beseech you believe in virtue; believe
in truth; believe in honesty and fidelity ;
believe in honor; believe in God; believe
in Gods laws and in Gods providence.
Put your trust in God, aud in the faith of
God, and not in the seeming of deceitfll
and apparently prosperous men. Let no
man witch your soul from you, let no man
dazzle your understanding from you; let
no man by any sinuous courses draw you
aside from that straight and narrow way
where there is safety. And whatever else
you get, have peace every day with your
own conscience. Whatever else you offend,
do not offend your God. Keep Him on
your side. Do what is right, and then
fear no man. Do what is right and trust
in God, and all the world cannot hurt you.
Neither time, nor DEATH nor eternity can
harm those that follow the light that God
throws upon their path. And for all i'm
perfections trust to His gracious and for
giving love.

How YouNG MEN Should DRISK.--
Stand up straight like man, your left side
to the bar, take the glass neatly and firmly
between the thumb and forefnger Of the
right hand, letting the little finger drop
down to near the bottom Of the glass, swing
the glass in plano exactly corresponding
with the top of tho bar, until it is precisely
before you. Just then throw the head
back little, push the chin forward, SO as
to leave the throat in full, open, easy
position. Compress the lips tightly, draw
full breath through the nostrils, and with
graceful curve raise the glass until the
rim is within about three inches of your
chin. Now is the supreme moment. just
here turn your eyes upward, think of your
mother, and open your hand instead of your
mouth If any one laughs, it will be an
insult which you should resent by not going
there again.

MaIds and Misiresscs.


1t should be plain that examples are as
much to servants as to children; since in
manner and social training servants are as
children. The peasant-girl- reared in an
Irish cabin or German cottage, can hardly
be expected to be a model Of politeness or
of personal neatness. 1t is quite possible,
however, to teach her by example alone.
If the mistress be courteous to every mem
Der of the family, and they in turn to her,
the maid soon feels the atmosphere of good
breeding, and unconsciously becomes amia-
BILE and respectful. But let the mistress
speak sharply to her husband, or scold the
children in public or let the master con-
stantly fiad fault in the presence of the SER
want, and she will shortly discover that
courtesy is not one of the essentials of the
establishment, aud will, most likely, add
black looks and unciyil words to the gen.
eral disharmoDy. Servants being imita-

Constant watching is injurious to any
child. Little faults may, by system Of
espionage, be aggravated into fragrant sins.
Choose the best time for reproviug delin-
quents, but be careful about doing it all at
time. Let them get on your "blind
side" occasionally, for vanity has a great
deal to do with our behavior, and mis-
chieyous child is just as anxious to court
observation, as is he who desires to be con-
sidcred remarkably good. Many evils the
Savior noticed, but did not rebuke. Con-
slant hammering frequently produces cal
lousness.
