The Marthas.

What observer of human affairs can fail
to recognize everywhere the class represented
by the bustlng, offcious, indefatigable Mar
tha. worn with her toll, yet ever making
lnore-greedy of all the work, yet complain
ing of others rest There are men, and
there are nations, that seem ordained to be
the fags of the world; whose honest pride is
to keep its larder stored and its wardrobe
full; who exist only to sweep its passages
and clean its windows and find their most
complacent dignity in spreading its table
with the whitest cloth, and preserving its
accounts in the safest order. They do not
deliberately think these administrative cares
to be the great object for which man is set
upon the stage of being; they are always Oh
the way to some higher end, only they never
reach it; for when they are Just within
step of it, and the neatest preparation has
been made for beginning to live, some new
dust is discovered that must be cleared
away, and some finish, positively the last
constantly remains to he interposed. FUN
ing under selt-imposed tasks, they think
themselves the hardly-entreated servants OF
all ; deploring the slavery of life they would
be at a loss'to use its freedom. Does any
one suppose that il Martha had been more
than taken at her word, she would really
have sat at Jesus feet, with surrendered and
kindling mind and that she would not
rather have started up on the remembrance
OF some loose screw in the economical ma
chine, which must be set fast ere her atten.
tion could be at liberty. And is it not plain
that the half of mankind whom she repre-
sents, while lamenting that their years are
spent in drudgery, and leave them 10 time
for wonder, thought, and love, are at home
only among the means of life, and these
once ready, would be perplexed to live,
And so it is that they are always preparing
for time that never comes one trife more
of management, and then they will sit down
to wisdom and as they run out on this final
errand without their hat, death overtakes
them Ikea thunder-shower and drives them
to the shelter that forbids return.-.Se,mons

Country Life In the Winter.

1t doesn't speak very well for the inven
tive genius of our rural population, nor foI
their social instincts, that they have allowed
the old-tme merry-makings to die out with
out providing anything to take their place
Were such rural enjoyments as apple-bees
corn-huskings, spelling g-matches and singing
schools in which old and young united, quilt
ings and house-warmings, so characteristic
of pioneer life or a new state of society that
the old settlements cannot keep them up
If so. the descendants of the sturdy and
rather severe old-fashioned folks-who, not
wthstanding their grave demeanor and Sc
rious views of life, loved innocent hilarity
and jovial gatherings nearly as well as they
did their psalms and long sermons--ought
to invent something more acceptable to
modern tastes. Instead of doing this, how
ever the great majority of rural commune
ties content themselves with humdrum sort
of life. Perhaps it comes from there being
a different sort of young people in the coun-
try now, that such practical and happy
frolic as an apple-bee is no longer in vogue.
We can imagine that young lady might

ism to join a a"parng party. But think
of the old-time picture: In the ample
kitchen, with its great Fireplace piled high
with wood, that sends the flames cracking
and roaring up the chimney, the girls and
boys of the country neighborhood are gath
cred. Some have pairing machines, and are
making the jackets fly from heaped-up pans
of Greetings and Spitzenbergs. Others
with knives "quarter aud core" and others
with needle and thread string the pieces for
drying. 1t is busy scene, but not so busy
as to prevent the joke, the song, the story,
and even the shy love-making. Before the
old sentinel in the corner has ticked out
eleven o'clock, apples enough to festoon the
great kitchen have been strung, and the floor
is cleared for a hearty dance to the inspir-
ing notes of vigorous fiddle. 1t is no Ian.

showing off good clothes, but a genuine,
joyous, innocent dance. llomely and rustic :
Yes, but natural, free, mirthful, and promo

longs to the olden time. Now-a-days, when
Biddy reigns in the kitchen--when machines
are whirling aud clanking everywhere, from
beating eggs and washing clothes to cutting
the grain and loading and moving away the
hay-when everything goes quickly to
market from the farmers field aud door
when the young folks "go West " or flock
to the cities---the conditions of life are all
changed. Yet this is no reason for social
stagnation in the country during the inter.

and with bitter tears took counsel of Him
who had made both the root and the flower
He told her that for her soul, her body and
her household she needed just the same three
things she had given her flower. Plenty of
fresh air and water and sunshine. Then
Saint Margaret was much comforted. She
bathed her soul in the great fountain that
was made for the very purpose till IL was
winter than snow. She breathed the pure
air OF the Holy Spirit in the Bible and
prayer, and warmed her heart in the sun
shine of Gods love. She made her body
neat and beautiful as she could, and her
house so clean that even the stove and old
tins on the wall reflected the sunshine, and
daily she opened her windows to the pure
air, till even the beds and closets were sweet
as baby's breath. Then she made sun.
shine in the house and all through the neigh
borhood with kind words and loving deeds.
This she did for many years, till her life
grew far more fragrant and beautiful than
her hyacinth, and when the angels came
for her they called her Saint Margaret

The Duty of Woman to be Lady.

Wildness is a thing which girls cannot af.
ford. Delicacy is IA thing which cannot be
lost and found. No art can restore TO the
grape its bloom. Familiarity without love,
without confidence, without regard is de.
structive to all that makes woman exalting
and ennobling.
"The world is wide, these things are small,
They may be nothing, but they are all
Nothing? 1t is the first duty of a woman
to be lady, Good breeding is good sense
Bad manners in woman is Immortality.
Awkwardness may be ineradicable Bash
fulness is constitutional. Ignorance of eti.
quette is the result of circumstances. All
can be condoned, and do not Danish man or
woman from the amenities of their kind
But self-possessed, unshrinking and aggres.
sive coarseness of demeanor may be reck.
oned as state prison offence and certainly
merits that mild form of restraint called i'm.
prisonment for life. 1t is a shame for wo.
men to be- lectured on their manners. 1t is
bitter shame that they need it, Women
are the umpres of society. 1t is they to
whom all mooted points should be referred
To be lady is more than to be prince.
lady is always in her right inalienably
worthy of respect. To lady, prince and
peasant alike bow. Do not be restrained
Do not have impulses that need restraint
Do not wish to dance with the prince un-
sought; feel differently. Be such that you
confer honor. Garry yourselves so loftily
that men shall look up to you for reward,
not at you in rebuke. The natural senti.
ment of man toward woman is reverence
He loses large means OF grace when he is
obliged to account her being to be trained
into propriety. A mans ideal is not wounded
when woman fails in worldly wisdom; but
if in grace, in tact in sentiments, in deli.
cacy, in kindness, she should be found want
ing, he receives an inward hurt.-Gaa Ham

Mistakes.

we sometimes make some very great mis-
takes III this world-mistakes that bring
about sad results, which cause us much pain
and sorrow. Some whole lives seem TO
be one continual chain of mistakes, with
scarcely broken link, and, of course, twi.
light shadows envelope the pathway Of such
unfortunate human beings. One mistake
often casts spell of darkness over a human
life sn1 robs it of its beauty and bright
ness, and so amultitude of them cannot fail
to cause gloom and CONSERVATION. 1t is a
little strange how long we are in cleaning up
the lessons of wisdom, that will save us from
hasty words and actions. We learn very
slowly the principles of a true life-gather.
ing them up with tears and sorrow, and
weeping at our sad mistakes at each step.
stern experience seems to be our only teacher
in the life that is so full of mistakes The
truth is we rush on so wildly through life,
never stopping to consider the results of our
hasty words and actions until it is too late
to avoid the consequences. Then we reap
with sorrow, what our hands scattered in our
hasty blindness. So ii is all through life.
We emerge from the shadows only to plunge
into them again, and we treasure up one bit
ter lesson only to receive another Not I'M
til, foot-sore and weary we stand upon the
verge of the grave, do we learn how to live
Oh, how we shall mourn at last, over our
hasty deeds and bitter words strewn so
thickly all along our life path. It is true
that they are small, and unmeant, but yet
they will embitter our lives and bring shad.
ows over it, There was one who lived
long time upon earth who never made any
mistakes. He never sowed the seeds that
bear harvest of pain and regret. Upon
His beautiful life there rests not a stain of
sin. He was tempted just as we are, and
yet lie did not make a single mistake. He
lived for an example to us, and yet we blum
der along III our weak, blind way, aud put
away our model from u.s. Strange that we
should prefer to walk among the silent shad.
ows, instead of dwelling in the sweet blessed
sunlight of love and happiness. But yet,
perhaps the Master will pity our weakness,
and save us at last. Then we shall see clearly,
and understand the grand principles of
true life. Then the mystery that clusters
around this life will be made plain, and we
shall make no more sad life faiures.-By

the fine imposed upon the law-breaker, so

A Firesidle Saint.

Saint Margaret was not always a saint (;
she lived in a coarse, bad ueghborhood, and
she was just like her neighbors They
washed their faces every day and combed
their hair on Sunday, and cleaned their
houses when company was coming; and
because their hands were idle their tongues
were very busy, aud made a great deal of
trouble, and their feet carried them to bad
places. Bat Saint Margaret was passion
ately fond of flowers. She loved TO stand
at the florists windows and near the flower
stands in the MARKET that she might enjoy
their beauty and sweet smell One day She
picked up on the pavement small, round
root, something like an onion, covered with
a coarse, reddish-brown skin, Saint Mar
garet knew at once that it was not an onion,
but flower root So she took it home,
planted it and gave it plenty of water aud
air and sunshine. Carefully she watched
it, until there grew up tall green stalk,
with lovely dropping blossoms-a double
white hyacinth, aud the close air of her room
was filed with its fragrance, Then Saint
Margaret was seized with burning desire
that out of her rough, coarse life should grow
something as beautiful and fragrant as this
hyacinth. She fell on her knees beside it,,

A BEAUTIFUL SIGHT.-I do not know a
more beautiful sight on earth than man
who has served his Lord for many years, and
who having grown gray in the service, feels
that in the order of nature he must soon be
called home. lie is rejoicing in the first
fruits of the Spirit which he has obtained,
but he is painting after the full harvest of
the Spirit which is guaranteed to him. |
think | see him sitting on a jutting crag by
the edge of Jordan, listening to the harpers
on the other side, and waiting till the pitcher
shall be broken at the fountain and the
wheel at the cistern, and the spirit shall de-
part to God who gave it, A wife waiting
for the husbands footsteps, a child waiting
in the darkness of the night till its mother
comes to give it the evening kiss, are por
traits of our waiting, 1t is pleasant and
precious thing so TO wait aud so to hope.

JOnah's One Sermon.

Jonah was but one man, and he preached
but one sermon, and it was but short SER
mon as touching the number of words, and
yet he turned the whole city, great and
small, rich and poor, king and all. We be
many preachers here in England, and we
preach many long sermons, and yet the peo-
pie will not repent aud convert. This was
the first fruit, the effect, and the good that
his sermon did, that the whole city, at his
preaching converted, and mended their evil
living, and did penance in sackloth. And
yet here i'll this sermon of Jonah is no great
curiousness; no great clerkliness; no great
atfectation of words, nor of painted elo-
quence; it was none other but, :" Yet forty
days and Nineveh shall be DESTROYED !" 1t
was no more. This was no great curious
sermon, but nipping sermon, pinching
sermon, biting sermon it had full bite ;
it was rough sermon, and a sharp, biting
sermon. DO you not here marvel these
Ninevites cast not Jonah into prison that
they did not revile him nor rebuke him +?
They did not revile him nor rebuke him, but
God gave them grace to hear him, and to
convert and amend at his preaching. A
strange matter, so noble a city to give place
to one mans sermon Bishop Latimer 1880.
