CARRYING a LADDER.-Did you ever
see person cary a ladder ne puts i;
on hls shoulder, or it may be he puts his
head between the rounds and has ono of
tho sides resting on each shoulder. and
having it nicely balanced walks along. A
man with ladder is an interesting object
IN crowded street. He looks at tho end
before him, but the eud behind him he
cannot sec. If he moves the front end to
get out Of the way of person, eway goes
tho rear end just as far 10 tho opposite d.
rcctIou, and tho slightest turn of bis BODY.
only few inches, will give the ends n
sweep OF several feet, and those in the way
may look for bruised hats and bumped
heads, while tho window-gllss along the
street Is in constant danger from tho un-
seen rear eud Of the ladder. When n
small boy | was carrying q not worry large
ladder, when there was a crash. An un-
lucky movement had brought the rear end
of my ladder against a window. Instead
of scoldiDg me, my father made INC stop
aud said very quietly, look here, my
son, there is one thing wish you always
to remember that is, ever ladder has two
ends / never have forgotten that. tho
many, many years have gone, and | new
er see man carrying 4 ladder or other
long thing but what remember the two
ends. Don't wo carry things besides lad d,
ders that have two ends? When | see
young man getting fast habits | think
be only sees one end Of that ladder, and
that BIO does not know that tho other end
IS wounding his parents hearts. Many a
young lady carries a ladder in the shape
Of a love for dress aad fnory she only
sees that qualification Of foolish pride
at the forward end Of that ladder, while
the end that she does not 500 is crushing
true modosty and pure friendship as she
goes along thougtlessly among the crowd.
Ah yes, every ladder has two ends, and it
is thing to be remembered in moro ways
than ono.-The NoraUian.

WHY EARS SHOULD Nor BE Boxed. -
The passage Of the ear is closed by thin
membrane, especially adapted to be iuau-
enced by every impulse Of the air, aud
with nothing but the air to support in-
ternally.
II any ono designed TO break OF over
stretch the membrane be could scarcely
devise moro efficient means than to bring
the hand forcibly down upon the passage
Of the ear, thus driving she air violently
before it, with no possibility Of its escape
bat by the membrane giving way. Many
children are made deaf by boxes on tho
ear in this way. There are better ways Of
punishment, aud bottor place.
