We learn that the old Cushnoc House,

excellent one but what will the Sunday loaf

Woods in Winter.

When winter winds are piercing chill,
And through the hawthorn blows the gale,
With solemn feet tread the hill 2
That overfows the lonely vale. 80 u
Ger the bare upland and away
Through the long reach of desert woods,
The embracing sunbeams chastely plan .a-
And gladden. these deep solitudes
Where, twisted round the barren oak,
The summer vine in beauty chung,
And summer winds that stiffness broke,
The crystal icicle is hung. Co.,.
Where, from the frozen urns, mute springs
Pour out the rivers gradual tide,
Shrilly the skaters iron rings
And voices fill the woodland side. ga +
Alas how changed from the fair scene
When birds sang out their mellow lay,
And winds were soft and woods were green,
And the song ceased not with the day.
But still, wild music is abroad,
Pale desert woods within your crowd;
And gathering winds, in hoarse accord,
Amid the vocal reeds pipe loud.
Chill airs and wintry winds my ear
Has grown familiar with your song;
I hear it in the opening year
listen, and it cheers me long.

How to Garry q Gun.

1t is natural for boys, American boys
at least, when they have reached a GER
tain age, to want to have and to handle
a gun. This is all proper enough, pro-
vided the gun be properly handled.
The excitement and relaxation to be got
from an occasional hunt, we believe to
be good for our often over worked boys.
1t stirs the blood, and gives variety
and zest to life, and, under proper d.
rection, has u sort of culture about it,
tending to the development Of courage
and manliness. Yet it is at the same
time a dangerous amusement, and often
seems to be attended with rashness and
to beget recklessness. Who has not
had their blood made to run cold by
the rash handling Of a gun in the hands
Of boy. Accidents, from this source,
are quite too frequent, accidents which
often are no less than the wounding,
manning or destroying the life Of a
friend. In view of these facts the fol-
lowing excellent advice, contained in
the Turf Field and Form, should be
carefully read:
"To carry gun 80 that under no cir
cumstances can its accidental discharge do
injury to life OF limb, :is q matter of prime
pardonable sin in your own practice. or
tolerate it in q companion. When riding
never lay your gun in the bottom Of the
wagon unless it is provided with = leathern
case. and never, under any circumstances,
exploded cape. Never permit the mu1.le.
Of your gun 10 point upward under any
circumstance. When riding hold your,

Pay Cash.

Oh, how hard it is to pay bills! Ev-
erybody knows this. It is such pleas
ant thing, too, to have money in your
pocket, and there is no way by which
this desirable result can be secured e1-
cept by spending less than you receive.
Nothing assists in this calculation so
much as paying for what you get when
you get it.
When you run up bills at the butch
er's, the bakers, the milliner's and
dress-,naker's, you never know exactly
what you can afford. It is very hard
to keep track Of all your accumulating
indebtedness, and you are tempted to
spend the money lying idle in your hands
for things which you can do just as
we'll without, and in this way incom-
mode yourself when the day for the SET
tlement of bills arrives.
Every tradesman knows that people
buy more freely on credit than for cash.
When the pocket-book is drawn upon
every time that want is to be satisfied,
there is true appreciation Of the value
Of what you give, as we'll as Of what you
get; but when things are not paid for
at the time, there is less appreciation
Of the cost than the purchase.
In housekeeping especially, the
