How TO MAKE MIsCHIEF.-Keep
your eye on your neighbor. Take
care of them. Do not let them stir
without watching. They may do
something wrong if you do. To be
sure, you never knew them to do
anything bad, but it may be on your
account they have not. Perhaps if
it had not been for your kind care,
they might have disgraccd themselves
a long time ago. Therefore do not
relax any effort to keep them where
they ought to be. Never mind your
own business-that will take care of
itself. There is man passing along
he is looking over the fence-be
suspicious of him perhaps he contem-
plates stealing, some Of these dark
nights there is no knowing what
queer fancies may have got into his
head.
If you find any symptoms of any
one passing out of the path OF duty,
tell every one else what you see, and
be particular to see great many
1t is a good way to circulate such
things, though it may not benefit
yourself particularly. Do keep some
thing golng-silence is a dreadful
thing; though it is said that there
was silence in heaven for the space Of
half an hour, do not let any such
thing occur on earth, it will be too
much for this mundane sphere.
If, after all your watchful care, you
cannot see anything out of the way in
people. you may be sure it is not be-
cause they have not done anything
bad perhaps in an unguarded mo-
ment you lost sight of them-throw
out hints that they are no better
than they ought to be, that you
should not wonder if the people found
out what they were, after little
while, then they may not hold their
heads so high. Keepit going, and
some one else may take the hint, and
begin to help you after a while, then
there will be music and everything
will work with a charm.

Agur said, Give me neither pov
erty nor riches" and this will ever
be the prayer of the wise. Our in-
comes should be like our shoes If too
small, they will gall and pinch US
but if too large, they will cause US to
stumble and trip. Wealth, after all,
is relative thing, since he that has
little and wants less is richer than he
that has much but wants more. True
contentment depends not on what We
have; tub was large enough for Di-
ogenes, but the world was too little
for Alexander.

resembling the waves OF the ocean, and
IN still others stretching our for miles IN
one uiibrokeli level, from which the sun
reflected Its rays with glare almost lin-
rndurable. But one o. tile Most singular
features In connection with this section
was the absence of rain or moisture; the
days were ever sunny and hot, the nights
without dew and generally warm. For
more than five years, 1t is said, By those
who claim TO know, there had been no
rain there, until some three months since
the spell was broken. Suddenly, and
with scarcely any warning, rain COM
menced to fall, pid for thirty hours came
down steadily and increasingly, unac-
ctmpanied by wind, but yet a thorough
drenching rain. For two or three days it
remained pleasant, wien suddenly a
water-spout was seen winding Its way
through the valley. IL came In zigzag
course across the upper end Of the lake,
stricking the range.of hillson the east side,
and coursing rapidly along them. The
canyons and gorges were soon iilled with
water, which poured from them III fearful
