The Old School. houses.

School architecture is far from perfect, as
many an unlucky boy and girl know from
experience, having taken severe colds from
windows opened to secure ventilation. But
the sohoolrooms Of to-day are paradise
compared with those of the last century. A
veteran gives his recolections Of boyhood at
school
The first winter 7 attended, I remember
that the walls were almost black with smoke
and dirt The top Of the room was thickly
covered with balls OF paper which had been
chewed up and thrown against IT, There
was a large. open fireplace. The wood used
was green, drawn 30 the door sled length, and
sometimes in whole trees, to be cut mp 10y the
large boys. The room was very cold in the
morning, and scholars were allowed to leave
their seats and form a semicircle around the
fire. The struggle for desirable positions
often called down on the offenders severe
discipline with a large stick, which was ap
piled with more vigor than nowadays. Large
quantities Of wood were burned during the
forenoon, and during the afternoon the large
accumulation Of burning Goals would throw
out intense heat.
Being honored with front seat with nc
desk before me, have a vivid recollection OF
the torture endured while compelled to face
this fiery furnace, while in the morning
had suffered almost as much from the cold
being too small and weak to get a glance at
the fire through the dense crowd that en-
circled it. After reading my little lesson
which occupied hut few minutes, aud
taking a glance at the six pictures in Web
ster's spelling book, | had nothing to do hui
turn and twist and take a general survey OF
things. | had one amusement which was
very precious to me. 1t consisted in rolling
wet paper into ball aud tossing it up the
very steep aisle, and watching 1t roll down
again. This was not one of the require
ments Of the school, and | was often sud
denly arrested while zealously engaged in il
by warm and painful sensation about my
ears and the roots Of my hair.

How many unhappy girls have paid dearly
for the early upbringing OF their young hus-
bands, who, the first glamour Of love passed,
treat their wives as they were allowed to
treat their sisters, and as they saw their
fathers treat theirmothers -careessly, disre-
spectfully, with n total want of that con
sderate tenderness which is worth all the
passionate love in the world thus-thongh
they may pass muster outside as excellent
husbands, never doing anything really bad,
and possessing many good and attractive
qualties-co -contriying somehow quietly to
break the poor womanly heart, or harden it
into that passive acceptance of pain, which
is more fatal to married happiness than even
temporary estrangement. Anger itself is a
safer thing than stolid, hopeless indifference.
The best husbands ever met came out OF
family where the mother, most heroic
and self-denying woman, laid down the alb
solute law, Girls first Not in any author
ity but first to be thought of, as to protec
ton and tenderness. Consequently, the
chiyalrous care which these lads were taught
TO show to their own sisters naturally ex
tended itself to all women. They grew ~
| true gentlemen--gentlem homogeneous, ,unex
acting, courteous of speech and kind of heart
| IN them was the protecting strength of man
hood, which scorns 10 use its strength excep
for protection; the proud honesty OF man
hood, which infinitely prefers being loyingl,
aud openly resisted, TO being "twisted rount
ones finger" as mean mon are twisted ant
mean women will always be found ready t,
do il but which, think, all honest men ant
brave women would not merely dislike, bu
utterly despise.-Mrs. Crdh.

Walking with God.

The difficulty which most people have in
religion, is to bring the thought of God into
their daily lives. His very greatness makes
it hard to connect Him with homely, every
day matters. We get some sense of Him in
church, or in the prayermeeting, or in rare
hours of exalted feeling. But when we go
into the busy world, where most Of our life
is spent, God fades away into heaven, that is
farther off than the blue sky above our heads.
This is a great loss to us. 1t is neglect on
our part, of our highest opportunity God
walks with us, in closest nearness, at every
moment There is in Him, if we could learn
to take it, provision of helpfulness, OF sym
pathy, of sufIiciency, for every step in the
whole round of our daily life. The very
things that seem insignificant aud without
spiritual meaning, are set round US by God
as part of our education. And if we ha-
bitually recognize His presence in them, all
the incidents of business and our household
care and daily walk, would become threads
of gold, holding us in the sweetest and no
blest friendship with our Heavenly Father

Likeness TO Christ.


This likeness of the follower of Jesus to
Him is ono Of character Al any Of ms are
worth, morally, is exactly represented by our
character. That is all we have for our capi'
tai here, and il is all we shall have for our
capital in heaven. Wicked people under
stand this, and their great aim is to destroy
the character Of the good. 1t was this they
were aiming at in respect to Christ when
they said lie is a wine-bibber and glut-
ton" They hated Him because people cred
tied Him with being a good man. II was a
devilish conspiracy on their part 10 destroy
His reputation That was the strong, vital
thing about Him, and they banded t6 de-
stroy that. II is the strong, vital thing in
us who follow after Him to-day Not in our
moods or feelings; not what we believe in
respect 10 truth but in what we are at heart
and taken as a whole really are, are we to
look TO find our needed likeness to Christ

Of Christ, then may we have hope Of glory

Tweed's Faithful Wife.

They were married when the man was
a chair-maker, aud they might have had a
happy career had the former remained hon
est. They lived in plain manner, mingled
with mechanics society, and were the parents
of two boys aud two girls, good-looking aud
healthy children. The era Of meretricious
slpendor has come aud gone like dream,
The girls are married. Each had diamond
wedding, and each has sunk into obsepriiy
and poverty. The two sons once held iins
appointments in the service of the ring, but
they are now only lounging around the city
hall The mother is in widows dcsolation.
The ill-gotten wealth is almost all gone. A
million and a half has passed into the hands
of her lawyers, and her husband is still a
prisoner A seedy and eorpulent old man,
inhabiting pair of rooms in Ludlow street
ial, is all that is left of one who has been
alderman, congressman, chair-maker and
lawyer, commissioner Of parks, public build
ings and docks, state senator, and for seven
years the autocrat of this city. The only re-
deeming feature is the faithful wife, who is
reducing herself to poverty in hope of OBJ
tanning her husbands rplease.-N. T. Letter.

Christians and Things Temporal.

God never intended temporal things for
His peoples portion; therefore from them
they must not expect their relief in times OF
trouble lie will have us read His love to
us by things within us, not 10y things with
out us He hath other ways of expressing
His love to His people than by the smiles of
His providence upon them How would
earthly things be oYeryalued and idolized,
if, beside their conveniency to our bodies,
they should be marks and evidence of Gods
love to our souls A Christian is TO value
himself as the merchant or the husbandman
doth. The merchant values himself by his
bills and goods abroad, not by the ready
cash that lies by him; and the husbandman
by his deeds and leases, and so many acres
ol corn he hath in the ground, and knows he
hath a good estate, though sometimes he is
not able to command twenty shilings
Christian, thy estate also lies in good prom
ises, and new covenant securities, whether
thou hast more or less Of earthly comforts in

Gods Justice.


We marvel sometimes that Gods justice
is not promptly and signally displayed, and
that those who sin are not at once destroyed
They would be- if the forbearance of God did
not exceed the forbearance Of the holiest OF
men. But wicked men live and prosper, not
because God Indifferent, but because he is
patient, and gives them time and opportu-
nifty to forsake their evil ways. The world
is fun of instances TO show us that divine
Justice, though long delayed, is at last exc
cuted. Nothing is more foolish, if We were
aware Of it, than to envy the prosperity Of
the wicked.
These difficulties will vanish in the light
Of the judgment day. The enemies Of the
good man may try TO add bitterness to hi
misfortune, and say why does not Goo
befriend YOU and why does he not punish
us ?" But the end is not yet. In that day
when the secrets of all hearts shall be made
manifest, virtue will be rewarded and vice
punished, and all the spirits Of men whether
saved or lost, will be forced toexclaim "GoC

Christ's Sympathy.

"If," says Augustine, ga man should
come up to embrace thee, to kiss and honor
thee upward, and beneath, with n pair of
shoes beaten full of nails, tread upon thy
bare foot, the head shall despise the honor
done unto it, and for the foot that smarteth,
say, Why treadest thou upon me?' So,
when feigned gospellers honor Christ, our
head, sitting in heaven, and oppress His
members on earth, the head shah speak for
the feet that smart, and say, why treadest
thou on me p" Paul had zeal toward
God but he did tread upon Christ's feet on
earth for whom the head cryeth forth from
heaven, Saul, Saul, why persecutest thou
me 2" Although Christ sitteth on the right
hand Of His Father, yet liveth lie on earth !
lie suffereth all calamties here on earth
lie is many times evil entreated here ON
