A WORD TO BoYs.-Boys what are you
going to live for? For riches, or honor, OF
pleasure2 Or have you thought nothing Of
the matter Happy all day long, you have
dreamed of nothing more. But the time will
soon come when, if God spares you, you will
be called upon to take place in this busy
world ; and it is we'll that you should fix ear.

is not enough to be Industrious, and honest
and honorable Both our life and our living
is of God, and he demands of all his children
dutiful regard to his wishes and these he
has given US in his word. Having desire to
do his will, you cannot fail to secure his bles'
sing; and he will incline your heart unto wis
dom, for "the steps of good man are order
ed of the Lord" In Gods glory is the best
prosperity, because for this end were you ere:
ated and he intends that herein you should
find your highest enjoyment.

s9 She was an angelic blonde, and tripped
through the market until she reached stall
where handsome butcher stood. "Have
YOU hearth" she said, blushing timidly.
"Have heart, miss?" responded the butcher.
"Do you think I can watch you day after
day, and see your eyes dropping as they meet
mine; that I feel your velvet breath on my
cheek as I stoop over to serve you, and not
have heart? All !! maiden, am all heart,

WITTY DIvINEs.-It was frequently said
of lately deceased English Bishop, equally
celebrated as wit and divine, that he was
never at loss for an answer; and certainly
few men ever possessed 8 greater power of re-
partee or welded it to better purpose. On
one occasion, as he was on his way to London
by railroad, a clustering fellow in the same
car, who did not know him by sight, broke
out as follows: II speak my mind to anybody,
I do I'd just like to see the man that could
put me down. There's that Bishop of L.,
now, that they make so much fuss about; l
only wish I could come across him, and I'd
ask him a question that he'd be puzzled to
answer, smart as he is" "Well, sill" respon-
ded quiet voice from the opposite seat, "now
is your time, for I'm the Bishop" "Oh you
are the Bishop are your" quoth the swagger.
er; "Well, then, my Lord, which is the road
to Heaven ?" "Nothing simpler" answered
the Bishop, with smile; ':just turn to the
right and then keep straight on" By his
own admission, however, there was one occa-
sion upon which even this master of words
found himself completely non.plussed. In
one of his walks through London, he got in
conversation with workman, for whose en-
tertainment be produced rare Greek coin,
telling him that it was upward of 1000 years
old. "Won't do, Guv'nor," retorted the ar
tisan, laying his grimy fore6nger derisively
along the side of his nose; "dy'e think do
not know as how this years only 1858 yet Z"
Music TAKEN OUT OF SoNG.-The latest
sentimental ballad is entitled "Give Me the
Home of My Childhood" Bless your soul,
we'd do it in minute, but-why haven't you
heards Old Tagers closed out three mort.
cages on it in 1867 and '6S, and the next year
it was sold for taxes, it was seized for debt in
the summer following, then your oldest broth
er claimed that it belonged to his wife, and
brought suit in her name to recover, and be-
fore that was through they found an old flaw
in the title, and in trying to straighten that
out, it transpired that your grand father had
no government patent on it at all, but had
stolen it bodily from the Indians and now two
halfbreeds have brought suit to recover the
property as the heirs. The house was burned
down two years ago, and the neighbors have
used the fences for kindling wood !; your wife's
cousin is trying to get hold of the lot, and
your half brother jumped the property one
night, put up a little shanty on the alley cor
ner, and is now in possession. There doesn't
seem to be much show for you, but you might
file your papers, buy your lawyer and sail in.

The IRREPREss1BLE.-They we're all out at
the springs-father, mother and FIVE year old
boy. After an invigorating bath they went
up the hill to the chicken soup" spring, and
while regaling themselves with the delightful
drink, the little one looked at the bubbling,
streaming water moment, and then asked /:
Mamma, what makes the wafer boil sor'
"God does my son."
."How does he do it?" ,
"Oh! he builds big fire under it."
"Does he build the fire his own selff
"Yes, I suppose So"
The little one reflected a moment, then
asked:
mamma, does God kick over the chairs
and swear at Mrs. God when he has to get up
and build the fre?'
The wife glanced suggestively at her hus-
band, but his eyes were fixed, intently, upon
some object away down the river. The 81,
lence for minute was absolutely painful, and
then the man softly remarked:
II never before knew the Humboldt to be
so low at this time O year"

In the life of Alfred the Great.
by Asserius, we read that, before
the invention of clocks, Alfred
caused six tapers to be made for his
daily use; each taper, containing
twelve pennyweights of wax, was
twelve inches long, and of proper
tionate breadth. The whole length
was divided into twelve parts, or
inches, of which three would burn
for one hour, so that each taper
would be consumed in four hours;
and the six tapers, being lighted
one after the other, lasted for twen-
ty-four hours. But the wind blow
ing through the windows and doors
and chinks Of the wall of the chapel,
or through the cloth of his tent, in
which they were burning, wasted
these tapers, and, consequently,
they burnt with no regularity; he
therefore designed a lantern made
OF OK or COW horn, cut into thin
plates, in which he incIosed the
