Tom did so. From the will it ap-

who were her brokers, had, on step
ping from her carriage, trodden on
a piece of orange peel, sprained her

Toms quickness in extficating her,

to attend to her, she would doubtless
have suffered very severe injuries,

Tom had forgotten all about it,
but the old lady had not, and his at
tention to her on that occasion, and
more especially his care of a favorite
lap dog, which the old lady had in
her arms at the time of the accident,
had so won upon her that she had
made q note of his name. His ad-

had at last found out, after some
months search, for Tom had not seen

Fell on the upturned faces OF the roses,
And on thine own upturned-alas in sorrowl
was IL not Fate that on this July midnight
Was il not Fate (whOSe name was also Sorrow
That babe me pause before that garden gate,
To breathe the incense OF those slumbering roses
No footsteps stirred the hated world all slept,
Save only thee and me. / paused-l looked
And in an instant all things disappeared,
(Ah, bear In mind this garden was enchanted)
The pearly lustre OF the moon went out
The mossy banks and the meanderng paths,
The happy flowers and repining trees,
Were seen no more; the very roses odors
Died in the arms OF the ad0ring airs,
All-all expired save thee-save less than thee,
Save only the divine light In thine eyes
Save hut the soul in thine uplifted eyes
saw hut them-they were the world 10 me,
| saw but them-saw only them for hours
Saw only them until the moon went down.
What wild heart histories seems TO lie enwritter
Upon those crystalline. celestial spheres!
How dark woe , yet how sublime hopel
How silently serene, a sea OF pride
How daring an ambition yet how deep
How fathomless capacity for love!

In the words Of an intelligent and
successful farmer, "Be industrious,
frugal, thoughtful, and attend to
your own business" Industry in all
callings is the chief element Of suc-
cess. Prudent frugality, not degen-
Grating into parsimony, nor stinginess
to the family, the stock and the soil,
is essential; save everything from de-
probation, the stock, the pastures,
the woods and the fields; they must
not be suffered to lose their fertility.
Above all save time.

DIFFERENT WAYS OF LOOKING AT
IT.-Diherent eyes see different
things in looking at the same land
scape. a farmer sees crops and cat.
tie ; a naturalist, birds, insects, and
an artist, rocks and trees, and lights
and shades. Young eyes and old
eyes may look very differently on 8
painting.
Some time since a party of ladies
and gentlemen went on tour of in
spection through Durham Castle.
The "lions" were shown to them by
an elderly female of sour, solemn
and dignifed aspect. In the course
of their peregrinations they came to
the celebrated tapestry, for which
the castle is so famed.
These" said the guide, in true
Snowman style, favored with dash
of piety to suit the subject, and point
ing to several groups of figures upon
the tapestry, these represent scenes
in t he lite of Jacob"
ooh, yes; how pretty!' said 9
young lady, with a laugh, pointing
to two figures in somewhat close prox
unity, she continued, 81 suppose that
is Jacob kissing Rachel"
"No, madam" responded the in
dignant guide, with crushing dignity
that is Jacob wrestling with the an
gel"
The man haw-hawed, the young la
dy subsided, and offered no further
expository remarks. but groaned un
der sense of unworthiness during
the rest of the visit.

DoN'T SCoLD.-For the sake Of
your children don't do it. It's a great
misfortune to have your children
reared in the presence and under the
influence Of q scoId. The effect of
the everlasting complaining and fault
finding Of such persons is 10 make
the young who hear it unamiable, ma
licious, callous-hearted, and they Of
ten learn to take pleasure in doing
the very things for which they re-
ceive such tongue-lashings. As they
are always getting the name of wrong
doing, whether they do it or not, they
think they might as well do wrong as
right. They lose all lambition to strive
for the favorable opinion of the fault
finder, since they see they always
strive in vain. Thus scold is not
only a nuisance, but a destroyer of the
morals of children. If these unloved,
dreaded people could only see them
selves as others see them, they woull
flee to the mountains in very shame.

Sentiments.

There is certain noble pride through
which merit shines brighter than
through modesty.
Deliberate with caution, but ACT
with decision and yield with gra
ciousness, or oppose with frmness.
We are all hunters in the field Of
life. Some of us bring down our game,
but most of us end in a wild-goose
chase.
"lf | for my opinion bleed, opin
ion shall be surgeon to my hurt, and
keep me on the side,where still am.
'-,&akespcare.
Self interest, that leprOsy of the
age, attacks us from infancy, and We
are startled to observe little head:
calculate before knowing how to re-
feet.
"Since time is not a person we car
overtake when he IS past, let us hon
or him with mirth and cheerfulnes:
of heart while he is passing. Goethe
1t is with little souled people as il
is with nariow-necked bottles, the
less liquor they have in them the
more noise they make in pouring il
out.
He that is truly polite knows how
to contradict with respect and please
without adulation, and is equally re
mote from an insipid complaisance
and low familiarity.
BY virtue of the Deity, thought
renews itself Inexhaustibly every day;
and the thing whereof it shines
though it were dust and sand, is &
new subject with countless relations

SSTFFLEs SPREE -SnifIles brought

the parlor, feeling as mean as sour
lager, when something in the corner
of the room attracted his attention.
Raising on his elbow, he gazed stead.
lily at it. Rubbing his eyes, he stared
again, and as he stared his terror
grew. Calling his wife, he asked
hoarsely:
"Mirandv, what is that?"
"What is what, Likey?"

wife calls him Likely for short and
sweet.

like a politician.

Here catching another glimpse Of
the terrible object, he clutched bis
wife and begged in piteous tones
"Don't leave NEEDN'T leave
your Likely" and burying his face in
the folds of her dress, he sobhed
and moaned himself into a troubled
sleep.
Then his wife stole gently to the
corner, picked up the toy snake, and
threw it into the stove.
