without going on purpose these
present themselves TO the intel'i-
gent farmer, and when the har-
vest is ripe, or the corn ready for

laziness or wicked waste of time
aud opportunity, as the man prac
tees who never has time TO do
anything properly. He goes to
town With three errands, and
comes Nome with only one finish

He plows for fifty acres of corn,
but has no time to get in but for

and chops with Il duller axe for
the lack of time to sharpen them.
All these are the lack OF fore
thonght and system-a neglect to
use the brain that God has given
him to share and direct his work
and save the muscle. An OK will
do the work but he cannot plan it.

have been "a good deal up and down the
world, and / neither did see either perfect
horse or perfect man, and never shall until
two Sundays come together. You cannot get
white flour out of a coal sack, nor perfection
out of human nature he who looks for it
had better look for sugar in the sea. The
old saying is, " Lifeless, Faultless." OF dead
men we should say nothing but good, but as
for the living, they are all tarred, more or
less, with the black brush, and half an eye
can see it. Every head has soft place in it,
and every heart has its black drop. Every
rose has it's prickles, and every day its night.
Even the sun shows spots, aud the skies are
darkened with clouds. Nobody is so wise but
he has folly enough to stock stall at Vanity
Fair Where l could not see the fools cap
have, nevertheless, heard the bells jingle. AS
there is no sunshine without some shadow,
so is all human good mixed up with more or
less evil ; even poor law guardians have their
little faiings, and parish beadles are not
wholly of heavenly nature. The best wine
has its less. All mems faults are not written
on their forcheads, and it is quite as well they
are not, or hats would need wide brifns yet,
as sure as eggs, are eggs, faults of some sort
nestle in every mans bosom. There's no
telling when mans sins may show themsel-
yes, for hares pop out of a ditch just when
you are not looking for them. A horse that
is weak in the legs may not stumble for
mile or two, but it's in him, and the rider had
better hold him UP well. The tabby cat is not
tapping milk just now, but leave the dairy
door open, and we will see if she is not as
bad thief as the kitten. There's fire in the
flint, cool as it looks wait till tho steel gets
a knock at it, and you will see. Everybody
can read that riddle, but it is not everybody
that will remember to keep his gunpowder
out Of tho way Of the candle.

AXE THERE OTHER INHABITED WORLDS !?
Around the sun, n sphere OF $4,000 miles
in diameter, there revolve anumber of globes;
some, tho more important, called planets, and
the rest asteroids, or else, If very small, aero
lites, or meteors. The planets are, of course,
the bodies most likely to prove interesting to
us, and they may therefore be proftably
enumerated. The nearest to the sun is Mer
curry, 81 millions Of miles distant next comes
Venus 65 millions of miles distant then the
Earth, 05 millions of miles. Outside of us,
farther from the sun, are Mars, 142 millions
of miles from that luminary; Jupiter, 4S3
millions Saturn 900 millions Uranus, 1900
millions and Neptune, 5000 millions.
An idea of the comparative size of these
bodies and other distances from the sun may
