Industry, Its Dignity and Usefule,

AhuustFyy It's plS MY anu Ssc'o'S'o'
There is no condition in life better
calculated than that of laborious me-
chanic, for man to feel and realize a
proper sense of his own dignity and in
dependence. He retires to his meals
from the fatigue of the day, with full
conviction that his sturdy hands have
earned the refreshment of his table.
His time never hangs heavy upon his
hands, and his robust frame and hardy
sinews test how essential this exercise
is to the health of his body. He pro-
crosses onward, as it were by inches. to
competency, and he learns the practical
lessons of economy and frugality in his
family expenditures. Removed from the
vices and gorgeous temptations of fash
ionable life, he knows how to bride his
ambition he feels the blessings of his
family hearth, and can look without
sigh on the gaudy pagentry of the day.
This is true moral independence that's
curb on our unruly desires This tenn
perance in the exercise of all our wishes,
are the very materials that constitute
valuable citizens. 1t shonld be the pride,
as undoubtedly it is the right Of labor
ing man, to indulge in such ideas. The
glory of laboring man is connected
with all that is dear in human life, it is
identified with peace and contentment,
with the early smoke that rises from the
family cottage, with the ripening har-
vest that seems to nod impatient for the
sickle EB.

A Sad story.

The Saratogian tells the following sto-
ry of misery and want: CAT a funeral
on the east side yesterday the son-in-law
of the deceased was in deplorable state
of intoxication, while the daughter and
child mourned the loss of father and
grandfather. The deceased, who had
reached the winter of life, was carried
away with consumption, but had he been
properl y cared for and nourished, would
undoubtedly have lasted some time yet.
As we are credibly informed, there have
been many times within the past few
months when the victim Of that terrible
disease lacked the commonest necessaries
Of life; and even the want of handful
of fuel during the coolest days compelled
him to remain in bed to keep from freez-
ing. The daughter did the best she
could to alleviate the sufierings of her
parent She sought work and performed
it willing ly, but her scanty earnings
would not go far to support family of
four, for one of this number was her
husband, who has allowed alcohol to
obtain supremacy over himself, most
pitable object to behold, having reached
that degree where he had lost almost
his entire self-respect. 1t seems sad that
he cannot be reclaimed and his family
receive the support he would probably
give them did he not waste his substance
and strength in the depths of rum"

Be A MAN.-Foolish spending is the
father of poverty. Do not be ashamed
of work nor of hard work. Work for
the wages you can get, but work for half
price rather than be idle Be your own
master, and do not let society or fashion
swallow up your individuality-hat, coat
and boots. Compel your selfish body to
spare something for profits saved. Be
stingy to your own appetite, be merciful
to others necessities. See that YOU are
proud. Let your pride be of the right
kind. Be too proud to be lazy too proud
to give up without conquering every diff
tculty too proud to wear coat that
you cannot afford to buy too proud to
be in company you cannot keep up with
IN expenses too proud to lie or steal or
cheat; too proud to be stingy.

A man of piety may be lodged in the
rudest cottage, and his occupation may
be only to sweep a street; yet let him so
sweep a street that, through the honest
and diligent doing of his duty, God is
glorifed, and men are led to speak and
think better of religion, and he forms a
link between earth and heaven. He as
sociates himself with holy angels.

Remember the power of indirect in
huenee-those which distil from life
not from a sudden brilliant effort. The
former never fail the latter often. There
is good done ofwhich We can never pred

invisible influence on character which
he alone can read who counted the sew

M0lleable Glass.

The French journals contain an account
| OF experiments made with a new kind of
glass so perfectly annealed as to have lost
all brittieness, wherefore the inventor calls
| it, justly or unicstly, malleable glass. His
name Is DE la Batre, and the experiments
were made at the workshop Of the railroad
company OF Point d'Afn, said company wish
ing TO ascertain the value Of an invention
winch at the present day is exciting a great
deal OF interest, especially in such pursuits
where glass is exposed to a great deal Of
strain and danger.
pane of glass a quarter of an inch thick,
or which the borders were supported by a
wooden frame, was laid On the ground. A
copper weight OF four ounces was dropped
on Its surface. elevatipg gradually the
height OF its fall. The glass broke at the
shock caused by two and half feet of fall.
In place OF that pane another, half as thick,
was substituted, of One-ejgth finch in
tnlckness' OF the glass tempered after new
method. Inc same weight was dropped,
arising successfully to the height OF the
ceiling OF the hall, without causing any
damage to the glass.
The experiments were continued Outside
the building and the experimenter climbed
on q ladder leaning against a wall. to let
the weight fall. 1t broke at a fall from seven.
teen feet. 1t was then proved that the tenn.
pered glass does not break by shocks of
longer or shorter duration, as the common
glass does. 1t is broken in great number
of very small crystals, resulting from it's
new molecular disposition. When thrown
on the ground the tempered glass rebounds.
