earnest teacher will think of the del

BEN BUTLER AS a LOVER.


Ben Butler commenced his career
as d diplomat and an artful dodger at
an early AGE. While attending col
lege at WateryilIe, No, he became
engaged to q esLimable young lady
there, but desiring for some reason
to sever the engagement, the pros
pective reformer adopted a novel plan
to accomplish his purpose. The
family of the young lady were promi-
uent in the temperance cause and
sternly arrayed against tue flowing
bowl. Wishing to shock their SEN
sibillties in the highest degree. Ben
INDUCED in a bogus but glorious
drunk, staggering around tie town
in the most rowdy-like fashion, and
conducting himself generally in a
manner that made the veritable and
most accomplished bummers envious.
He finally rolled an offensive citizen
into a ditch AID was promptly waltz
ed off TO the calaboose. He chuckled
heartily oyer his strategy, counting
his disgrace as nothing compared
with the success of his scheme. His
afianced was overwhelmed at his
downfall and dispatched a note to
him releasing HIM from his engage
ment. while her father requested him
never to darken their doorway again.
Ben appropriately called the Beast,
was jubilant, and, gleefully paying
his fine, emerged from the police
court with a proud and victorious
tread, a free man prepared to browse
in pastures new. This story Ber
gloated over to a college classmate.

HOW DOES YOUR DAY BEGIN?

The first waking moments of tie
day are o fpeculiar value to every con-
scientious person, no matter what his
business. But to the teacher they
are O sacred time containing the
promise ofall the good for the day,
which lies within his possibilities. BY
the history of all his yesterdays he
knows THAT his to-days will bring
critical moments, when even the ex-
preston of his face or the tone of his
voice may make an indelible impress
sion either for good or for evil upon
he sensitive soul material before him.
The comparison is more expensive
than happy; but the teachers life
often appears 10 us as the walk of a
tight rope. The slightest movement
of q mnscle, the least unsteadiness of
nerve, circumstances of no conse-
quence elsewhere, become things of
greatest moment in his critical feat.
The equilibrium is so unstable, the
balancing is so delicate, that tribes
become matters Of greatest magni-
tude. However, it is not the teacher
to whom these little things are of great
Importance it il to the youthful,
plastic minds and characters among
whom be walks. His influence, his
unconscious balancing, if it may be
SO called, is working for eternity.
Re ought to be under q moral and
intellectual tension, whether realized
or not, such as belongs TO no one
else. In lis Intercourse with his pn-
pills, nothing can happen which may
