MENTAL LABOR,

As marvellous instance of what
one man may achieve by doing
Systematically and thoroughly
whatever he undertakes, we can
not do better than consider the
life of Alexander Won Humboldt,
the author of Cosmos" There
was no part of the world he had
not visited, and he had been no.
where without acquiring the most
exact knowledge of the whole
country, all its physical character
istics, as well as the language hab-
its, customs, laws and religion,
and history of its people. He led
this life till he was ninety years of
age and even then no facts, in
any part of the world, that had
any bearing on scientific truth es-
capped his notice. His mind was
museum, where all the knowledge
that had been brought into the
world was placed in order, careful
ly guarded, and always ready for
use. We are not wrong in attrib-
uting the boundless learning and
prodigious memory of this great
man to his habit of systematizing
his mental labor, and to his pow
er OF self concentration, and to h is
belief in the wisdom of God.

sABBATH-DAY SUGGESTIONS.

To de-pGnd is u be ungrateful
beforehand. Be not hooking FIR
ell. Often thou drainest the gall
OF fear while evil is passing by thy
dwelling. Verify evils may he
couried, may be wooed, and may
be Won by distrusi f; for the soil is
ready for The seed and suspicion
put aside The help
ing hand - IHpper.
What is most dangerous to the
mind is the habit it acquires of un-
ia .thfulness. True love to God
thinks nothing small. All that can
please or displease him is great. 1t
does not produce constraint and
weak scruples, but it places no
limit to its fidelity; it acts with
simplicity. and as it is not embar-
rassed with things that God has
not commanded, it never hesitates
a moment about what he does
command. whether it be great or
small.--EeneiOn.
Happiness Is the will Of man
rushing clong the path of God -
God il God of joy, and you have
the choice to become a creature Of
blessedness. What sorrows come
in time, eternity will transform
into glory, If you will follow God,
The tears of this life will be wiped
from your eyes if you will fol-
low the Son of God whitherso-
ever he leads, Whoever will may
come to a blessed immortality
Not all who Will the heaven, but
who will the virtue that forms its
found ,tion. We see, then, a world
of happiness coming from God,
into it the irresponsible pass with
out loss of one; but into the ra-
tional accountable, go by divine
free will. Oh. come, all we who
love happiness. Come to the gate
way, Christ and God, and you have
found the prize. - DdUid Suing.
No thought of purity, or virtue,
Or truth, that God gives to us to
set afloat in this world, can ever
perish. And so of the words we
speak; we may utter them and
they are gone. We may never
think of them again but this uni
verse is a vast atmosphere of
waves, and they run on and on,
and stop and knock at the door,
the ear; leaving the human heart
to take it in, and on again and on;
and if there be a thought worthy
to be reiterated, another voice
takes it and sends it on. And il is
thus that what is vile drops as into
the ocean to be buried out ofsight,
and yet not lost, for the vile has
made a stain that, save by the
blood of Christ, can never be wash
ed away; but the pure and true
lives on until Its contamination
finds its home with the purified in
heaven. Bishop Simpson.

A good deal can be told of the
workings of the human male by OBJ
serving the manner in which be wears
his hat. He who draws his hat far
down upon his head is revolving a
desperate idea in his mind; he who
pitches bis. hat forward, low upon the
forehead and high upon the pack, is
indulging in self conceit and over
estimating his importance considerably
he who allows his hat to fall back so
that its brim fairly touches his coat
collar. is indifferent TO the opinions of
others; he who cocks his hat upon one
side Of his head is bursting with vanity
and wants taking down a triae; the
man Of good common sense seldom
wears his hat in Gather of these posi-
tons but carries it lightly upon the
head in q horizoual position. The close
student of human nature can read his
man by these signs, and not fail to
arrive at a pretty correct estimate Of his
individuality.
