Passing triumphant while admiring throngs,
With accIam atiOns and eKuIant songs,

Indifferent to the hero and the crowd.
His jealous followers would have driven aside
The sorry creature, but that good man said,
Stretching kind hand DER the suffering head,
Respect the burd.n' Then maJestic-eyed,
lie paused and passed on, saying him nay;
The heavy-laden also went his way.
Thou happy soul, Who traveest Ike a king
Along the rcse-strewn pathway Of thy Iot
Respect the burden Thou may'st il, or not,
For one heart is TO another sealed thing
Laughter there Is that nideIh sobs moans; a
Firm footsteps can leave bIood-prnts the stones.
Respect the burden, WhatsOe'er 4. be;
Whether loud outcriss the startled air,
Or in dumb agony of loss, despair
Lifts her sGIl face, like tranquility
Though each strained hsartIng quiVers shrinks

BEAUTIFUL EXTRACT.

Until we can cad the heart of another
without doubt, and know all the circum
stances of his life, all the many links in the
chain of accident that has surrounded him,
we should not blame him too much or be
too wrathful with him. What he has done
may he i'll, but we cannot know why he did
it or how he may have repented the doing.
A moment of strong feeling, an hour of
wrath may turn the feet upon the down
ward road so hard to retrace. We see one
lying at the foot of precipice, but we do
not know how he fell over what cruel
hand smote him-what lie betrayed him
nor how he chung to the brink seeking in
vain some helping hand.
Pity the fallen wretch and heal his
wound If you can l believe that Of all the
people who need pity, foremost stand
those who have done evil deeds. The good
find consolation in their own consciences
for any SORROWS; but the wicked who,
doubtless, get out in life meaning TO be as
| good as the best-who sometimes seem to
have been the victims of demons bound on
their eternal destructiOn-must be very

Yet such things happen 70 seldom that 1t is

a pauper in the community or burden to

sneered at as stingy, and misery, than to
spend in needless profusion the money Tor
which you have toiied. Better to acquire
ard peraeyere in the habit of saving money
until you can count it by thousands, than
TO work every year and find yourself not q
