Another day, his little son Arthur,

golden hair remain in my memory as a
more angelic apparition than any cherub-

1t is Better.

Better to wear a calico dress without
trimming, if it be paid for, than to owe
the shop keeper for the most elegant silk,
cut and trimmed in the most bewitching
manner.
Better to live in log cabin all your
own than brown stone mansion belong
ing to somebody else.
Better walk forever than run into debt
for horse and carriage.
Better to sit by the plain pine table, for
which you paid three dollars ten years
ago, than send home new extension
black walnut top, and promise to pay for
it next week. ~-
Better to use the old cane seated chairs,
and faded two ply carpet. than tremble at
the bills sent home from the upholsterers
for the most elegant parlor set ever
made.
Better to meet your business acquaint-
ances with free "don't owe you a cent
smile, that to dodge around the corner to
escape a dun.
Better to pay the street organ grinder
two cents for music, if you must have it,
than owe for grand piano.
Better to gaze upon bare walls than
pictures unpaid for.
Better to eat thin soup from earthen-
ware, if you owe your butcher nothing,
than to dine off lamb and roast beef, and
know that it does not belong to you

SEPTEMBER.


Not the full richness of autumnal gladness;
Thine the first languors of decay and sadness,
Roses not withered quite, yet slowly fading,
Leavess only edged about, with tint and shading
Cranes uurpling on the amefhSstine cluster,
Not all fulfilled, their highest tone of luster;
Juice-suekled fruits, on orchard bougfs late
swinging;
Still swelling with the sweets, moist skies are
bringing.
Pumpkins a-gold upon the slopes reclining,
Slow, mellow suns above, haZe-dimmed in shin
ing;
Brooklets, bereft of half their fret and babble,
Among the lichened rocks and pebbly rabble; :.
Gales, scented with the late mown hay and
No more to deck the fields; the summer s over;
The birdlng's song has lost its wonted sweet
ness;
A twitter, now, the breadth of its completeness.
Quiet the days; the cricket's note so cherry
Death seems afar-and yet, before the morrow,
The scene may change, ollr waking he in sorrow
Fer human life oft die in their September
As calm and sweet-some of us well remember; /;
Happy are they to fade, when fade the roses,
Before the auturnn-tide its frost diseloses;
Or, like the empurpled grape of royal spIendor-
or full ripe fruit completed life to render;
Let us be wise; give both due thought and meas
ure,
Then death viii not o'ercome, nor idle pleasure

Roger, the Scripture moveth us in sundry

thy spirit" Lyman Beeeher also preached
one of his best sermons with only one lis

discoursed at the Metropolitan Hall, "a
Sixth avenue, yesterday afternoon, to an
audience of three, his subject being the

course was listened TO with deep attention
by the intelligent audience. No collection
was taken up at the close of the services.
