was observed to have a queer-looking wild bird

to compass the death of some body else, and this
bird was to be used as a counter-charm. A gen.

dollars if any one would rebuke the superstition

lie LIFE TO CoME-What does q
man take with him when from the ex-
treme verge Of life he launches into
what lies beyond ? It looks as if he took
nothing. Death seems to pass sponge
over ali that has gone before. Be it
the end, or be it a new beginning. It
seems-a total breaking off from all that
life has hitherto consisted in. That is
what makes It terrible.
But If we look at it truly, his past life
is just the one thing that man does
take with him when he dies. He takes
himself. And that self is the product
of all his past experience and actions.
AS an oak bears in itself the result Of
every shower that through long years
has freshened it, Of every gale that has
toughened it or striped its boughs, of
sunshine that has fed it and the drouth
that has parched IT, so man, when he
stands at the end of life, is what he has
beer made by all his joys, and sufferings,
and actions, That is what lie takes into
the other world-his own character.
The life to come and the life that now
is, are parts of one another. They are
related. Tue man is not the same that
the boy was, out what the day was, en-
terrell into the man as q part of him.
The strength we gain by our victories
this year, and the weakness ipto which
we come 0y defeat, will De a part of US
next year. So. there is not an act, not
word but casts its influence forward
into the tomorrow tLat lies beyond
death.

WoNAN's SPHERE. The opinions of
the venerable Dr.. Mark Hopkins, ex-
President of Williams College, as to the
sphere Of woman, have been widely
published, as well by .he graduates of
THAT College as by his various works on
moral and s)cial science. The modifica-
ton or softening of his view is, therefore,
o matter of widespread interest. We
learn from the Springfield Republican
that he lately delivered lecture at
Vassar College, in which he said:
| would at this point, correct my teach
ing in "The Law of Love- to the effect
that home is peculiarly the sphere of
woman, and civil government that of
man. now regard the homo as the
joint sphere of man and woman, and the
sphere of civil government more of an
open question as between tho two.
1t is, however, to be lamented that the
present agitation concerning the rights
Of woman is SO much matter of s'rights,"
rather than that of "duties,' as the re-
form of the latter would involve the
former. State Journal"

CURDLED EGGs.-Wash half a
dozen eggs, put them into sauce
pan, cover them with boiling water,
and place them where they will
keep hot, but not boil. Let them
stand about seven minutes, then
skim out carefully, and serve at
once. The whites should be tender
and custard-like throughout and the
yoiks stiff or fluid as preferred. It
ID the leathery white that makes
common hard boiled eggs so difficult
of digestion. Broken over warm
hominy, milk toast, oatmeal mush,
crushed wheat, boiled wheat, or
warm potato, these curdlea eggs
make delicious dressing.
