DELIcArE PEorLE.-The-e 10 cou.
slant sympathy expressed BY robust
people for those Of sEght physical con-
stitution. We think the sympathy
ought to turn in the opposite direction.
II is the delicate people who escape the
most fearful disorders, and, in tkrcs
cases out Of four. live the longest.
Those Of gigantic structures are almost
always reckless Of health. They say !:
Nothing hurts me-, and 90 they stand
in drafts, and. so out into the night air to
cool Cd. and eat crabs at midnight, and
doff their -hannsls in April, aad get their
feet wet. But delicate people are shy
OF peril. They know that disease has
been fishing for them for twenty years.
and they keep away from the hook
No trout can be caught II he sees the
shadow Of the sportsman on the brook.
These people, whom everybody expect
to die, live On most tenacious,y. We
know of young lady who evidently
married wealthy man of eighty-fvc
years on the ground that he was very
delicate and with reference tn her one
third. But the aged invalid is SO care

Moreover, fence run in the Virgins

far as it is caused by stock roaming
upon the roads, would it not be cheap
er for us to supply pasture to the AMI

such burden? Ny venerable father,

PRAcrIcAL NorEs.-Ane eminent phys.
ician, who devotes bis whole attention
to diseases of the throat and iun, saws
that about three-fourths of all throat
diseases would get well by wearing very
loose collars and no neckties. He said
that often singers would come to him
for throat disease and loss of voice, and
he would tear open their cravats, and
cure them with no other treatment
whatever. "Fhe pressure of the col
lar on the arteries of the neck is very
bad for the health" said he He also
aided: If You have Z disease of the
throat, let nature do the curins and the
physician just as little as possible"

that would otherwise reseed the ground

GOLDEN GRAINS OF THoUoHf.-Pride
IL precarious, but virtue is immortal.
+: We have made justice q luxury Of
civilization.
Every dog has its day, and so does ev-
cry dogma.
Some people look at everything, vet
really see nothing.
1t is easier to be q harmless dove than
de ,ent serpent.
! 1t is little trouble TO a craven hinge
to be patient. even in fiy-time.
Humor must fall ont OF mans
mouth like music out of bobolink.
Envy is like flv, that passes all a
body's sounder parts, and dwells upon
the sores.
Mice fatten slow in church. They
can't live on religion any more than
ministers can.
Repentance begins in the humiliation
of the heart. and ends in the reforma-
ton of the life
Life is a masquerade. There is scarce
" any person, or class of persons, who
appears in his true character.
Wealth is an awful trust! How SOL
EMMY will the thought Of ill-spent
wealth comfort many on death-bel.
Some men marry to get rid of them
selves, and find that the game is one
that two can play at, and neither
win.
Educate the whole mantle held.
the heart, and the bodv:-the heal to
think, the heart to feel, and the body
to act.
Fashion cheats the eccentric with the
clap-trap of freedom, and makes them
serve in the habiliments of the harle-
quin.
they who were most weary Of life,
and are vet the most unwilling to die,
are such who have lived to no purpose
who have rather breathed than lived.
Men discover that it is far more con-
venient to adulterate the truth than to
refine themselves. They will not ad-
vance their minds to the standard; there
fore they lower the standard to their
minds.
Error is the negative oftruth as dark
ness is to light, or as death is to life
These are essentially irrcconciiiablea and
antasonistic. Truth will make us hap
py, can conduct US to God, to immor-
tally, to heaven.
The world is governed By three things
Wisdom, Authority, and Appearan-
ces. Wisdom is for thoughtful people,
Authority for rough people, and APP
pearances for the great mass Of super
fetal people, who can look only at the
outside.
Be careful to make Friendship the
child, and not the father, of Virtue; for
many strongly-knit minds are rattle,
good friends than good men. So. al
though they do not like the evil their
friend does, yet they like him who does
the evil; and, though no counselors OF
offence, yet they protect the offender.
