TURNING THE TABLES ON ScRIBE.--Scribe,
the dramatist, met his match in a nobleman
ambitious of gaining literary reputation by
proxy, from whom he received the following
curious epistle Sir, have the honor to
propose to you to associate yourself with me
in the composition of a drama Your name
willfigure by the side of mine; you alone
composing the play, and alone defrayng all
the expenses of the first representation. You
shall have all the profits, for work only for
glory" Scribe replied " Sir, have never
been accustomed to harness together In nv
carriage horse and an ass am therefore
unable to accept your very kind Offer" The
nobleman closed the correspondence with -
!" Monsieur Scribe, received your note of re-
fusal to unite our literary labors. You are
liberty not to understand your own interest,
but not to allow yourself to call mo horse"

COLD FEET.-Cold feet usually result from
unequal circulation. People of active minds
will generally find relief by wearing at times,
during their mental tasks, a linen CIR cotton
sirull-cap frequently wrung out in cold water.
The brain is thus cooled. and the blood sent
more naturally to the extremities.
A brilliant New York minister was COM
PEELED to write his sermons with his feet in a
hot bath. A prominent hydropathist advised
the wet head-cap, and it worked like charm,
enabling him to dispense with the inconveni-
ent tub of water.
The feet should be washed in tepid water
every day or two, but not in water SO
hot as to make them tender. Including the
bath, dip them into quite cold water, which
closes the pores naturally, and then wipe and
rub thsm entirely dry and warm them. No
business at the desk, the counter, the bench
mo domestic task or conventional crcum-
stance-is of SO grave importance as to warm
ones feet when they are cold. You can't af-
ford the hazard to health incurred by indffer-
enee to the discomfort nature is giving you as
a premontion of danger. Keep your feet
dry. If, by accident, you wet your feet, don't
be foolish and sit till death-damp steals your
vitals. Exercise common sense. and remove
the wet stockings. If chilly. take a warm
foot bath, ending with the cold dip and rub
bing dry. If in judicious way, people
would wet their feet oftener--ciean up TO
their ears--it would be better for their health.

The best treasure on earth is the most neg
lccted. 1t is the open door to the secret place
ofprayer. There all riches fall from heaven
into contrite and believing souls There God
crowns His princes who prevail with Him
through selfconquest. There life flows down
heavenly river, into the spiritual being of
the worshiper. You feel poor in grace-try
the closet. You are fainting in poverty-try
the riches of grace in the sweet solitude of
your closet.

Wherever true wife comes, home is always
around her The stars may be over her head; ;
the glow-worms in the night-cold grass may
be the fire at her foot but home is where
she is aud fora noble woman it stretches far
around her, better than houses ceiled with
cedar or painted with vermilion, shedding its
quiet light far for those who else are home

Avoid intermeddling with the affairs of oth-
ers. number of people seldom meet but
they begin discussing the affairs of some one
absent. This is not only uncharitable but
positively unjust. 1t is equivalent to trying
q cause in the absence of tho person impli-
Gated. Even in the criminal code person is
presumed to be innocent until he is found
guilty. Society, however. is less just, and
passes Judgment without hearing the defence.

Let us never BIO afraid of changing our
opinions, not our knowledge. That is form
of pride which haunts the more powerful

ones declared opinions /; but it is not found
in the great child-like geniuses. --Kingslcy.
