THE BEAUTY OF QUIET LIvEs.-There
are great multitudes Of lowly lives lived
on this earth which have no name among
men, whose work no pen ever records, but
which are we'll known and unspeakably
dear to God. They make no noise in the
world, hut it needs not noise to make life
beautiful and noble. Many of Gods most
potent ministers are noiseless. How silent
" the sunbeams fall all day long upon the
fields and gardens, and yet what JOY cheer
and life they diffuse. How silently the
flowers bloom. and yet what sweet fra
GRANGE they emit! How silently the stars
move on in their majestic marches around
Gods throne. and yet they are suns or
worlds How silently Gods angels work,
stepping with noiseless tread through our
homes, and performing their blessed min
istries about us! Who hears the fiutters
of their wings, or the faintest whispers OF
their tongues? And yet we know that they
hover over us and about US continually.
So Christ has many lowly servants. who
work so quietly they are never known
among men as workers, and whom He
writes down among His noblest ministers.
They do no great things, but they are
blessing. oftentimes perhaps unconscious
ly, wherever they go.-Ezchange.

A REvoLUTIoSIzISG THREAT.-I have
heard the story as applied loosely, but as
Jenkinsor's father-in-law tells it, it has
more of point and pith than other cases.
Jenknson WAS the man who entered the
complaint He was young merchant.
and had married the daughter of an old
to he headslrong and independent, plainly
giving her licge lord to understand that
she should be her own mistress and do AS
she pleased.
Jenkinson regarded this as An outrage.
and in the plentitude of his Indignation he
betook himself to his wife's father. and
there entered complaint, deep and bitter,
against the fair recusant, and unfortunate
| ". BY his laundering he more than half
intimated that the girl had not been
brought up as she ought to have been. But
the old man betrayed no ill-feeing toward
his son-in-law.
did the vixen say she would do as she
had mind tor
"Yes, sir"
And she makes you generally uncon-
fortable?"
"She does indeed, sir"
Goodness me! What ingratitude! And
only last week l gave her that beautiful
set of rubies."
al know it, SIR
Jenkinson, paid twelve hundred dol
lars for those stones and the setting"
II should say that they were cheap at

thought they would make her so happy
and so good. But have plan in my
mind. | shall put up with no more re-
ports of her short comings. She thinks
she will inherit fat piece of property
from her old father, but she may find her
self mistaken. have given her the ru-
bies, but will give her nothing more until
know that she has mended; and if hear
another word of her willfulness-if hear
another word-I will scratch her name
from my will and leave her but lesson
on behavior. If she troubles you any
more, you can tell her what say; and be
/ sure mean 1t. II is time she should al
low her old father TO rest in peace"
A month later, and the old merchant
asked his daughter how she was flourish
ing at home.

believe how good and kind James is. He
isn't cross any more at all" ...-.-
The old man nodded with satisfaction.
His threat had its effect.-Re1ding Eagle

RECEIPTS AND BILLs.-One of the sim.
plest transactions of business is that OF
taking a receip for the payment of money
Il might have been passed over but for a
recent occurrence. A lady paid a bill
took a receipt, and on returning to her
home she burnt it. On being asked why
she destroyed it, she replied,"l always
like to feel sure that it can't come up
again" AS she is "A very intelligent wo-
man. we can not presume that her case
is anomalous. As a general rule, re-
ceipt should be taken for all payments oI
money, and receipted bill for all pay
ments Of things purchased. A bill re.
ceipted is especially important where one
is in the habit of buying on credit; for The
most careful merchant may present YOU .
bill which you have already paid, and &
careless merchant is yet more liable to dc
it. In such cases hari feelings or ser
Gus trouble may ensue unless you avoid i
by paying the bill second time. See
that bills are dated and signed. Examine
the extensions and footings. Receipted
bills aleIlso vtry useful for reference, ant
much more to be depended on than one
memory. Bills and receipts should, there
fore be preserved. They should be neatly
folded to one width, and on one end shoul(
be written the name Of the payee' or recip
. lent of the money, with the date Of pay
ment, and then secured together and lail
in convenient place for reference.
