will come right up To your chamber to
save you the trouble of coming down,

make your toilet, and comment on how
gray your hair is getting, and wonder
if you are not a great deal stOuter and
redder in the face than you used to be.

Why should people read? and what
is the real, solid value of printed
matter? There are three good solid
reasons for reading and we can think of
no others. They are-tO be made wiser,
to be made nObler, and to be innOcently
recreated. Books which neither confer
information which is worth having, nor
lift the spiritual part of us up to lOftier
regions, nor, by judicious diversion,
refreshen the mind for further serious
efforts, are bad books, and the reading
of such is invariably idleness, and not
unOften the most dangerous kind of
idleness. Reading is not, as 80 many
people nowadays seem to suppose, good
in itself, as so many things are which
are by no means as highly thought of.
All energy that is not injurious, waste
full, or subtracted from some other effort
incumbent upon him who puts it forth,
is good, as walking, riding, boating end
the rest. But the reading of which we
speak cannot, under the most favorable
construction, be regarded as energy.
On the contrary, it is the very LATEST
form of laziness. People fly to it when
they think they have nothing else to do,
and they fatter themselves that by read
ing they are really doing something /;
and thus, nine times out of ten, they
exonerate themselves from the obliga-
tion of performing some duty which is
distasteful to them.-Ienple Bar.

A Good pr.ee to go Fishing.

The water is very clear at Hommer-
fest, in Lapland; you may see every
thing that goes among fish. A few feet
down you may see the young cod snap
ping at your hook, if you have one; a
little lower down the coal fish, and the
huge plaice and halibut, on the white
sand at the bottom. In other places are
the star fish as large as a plate, and
purple and green shell fish of all sizes.
The plaice is taken in the following
manner: In calm weather the fisher
men takes strong fine rod, to which he
has fastened heavy spear, like a whale
harpoOn. This he holds ready over the
bow of the boat while another person
paddles it forward slowly. When the
fish is at the bottom the boat is stopped,
the harpoon is suddenly dropped upon
il, and thus it is caught. In two hours
the fishermen get boat load. The
halibut is caught with the hook. They
sometimes weigh five hundred pounds,
and if drawn up carelessly will overturn
the boat In many of the mountainous
districts the rivers swarm with trout,
the habit of which is to conceal them
selves beneath boulder rocks i'm the bed
of the stream, yenturing out only at
night to feed. Men, each with heavy
hammer, will enter these waters and
strike one or two blows on the stones,
when the fish rush from their lurking
places partly stunned, and are easily
taken.

Thinking.

Thinking, not growth, makes perfect
manhood. There are some who, though
they have done growing, are still only
boys. The constitution may be fixed,
while the judgment is mature; the limb
may be strong, while the reasoning is
feeble. Many who can run, and jump,
and bear any fatigue, cannot observe,
cannot examine, cannot reason or judge,
contrive or execute, they do not think.
Accustom yourself, then, to thinking.
Set yourself to understand whatever
you see or read. To run through book
is not difficult task, nor is It very
profitable one. To understand a few
pages only is far better than to read the
whole where mere reading it is all. If
the work does not set you to thinking,
either you or the author must be very
deficient. -4 IL ......
