Little Things.


Little villages are nearer to being
atoms of shattered paradise than any
thing we know of; and little fortunes
bring the most content, and little hopes
the least disappointments.
Little words are the sweetest to hear;
little charities fly furthest, and stay
longest OH the wing; little lakes are the
stillest, little hearts the fullest, and lit
tie farms the best titled.
Little books are the most read, and
little songs the most loved. And when
nature would make anything especially
rare and beautiful, she makes it little;
pearls, little diamonds, little dews.
Everybody says a writer calls that
little that they love best on earth. We
once heard good sort of a man speak
of his little wife, and we fancied that
she must be perfect little bijOu of a
wife. We saw her, and she weighed
two hundred and ten pounds; we were
surprised. But then it was no joke
the man meant it. He could put his
wife in his heart

Walking.

OF all the exercises that a man can
take that of walking has justly held
first rank. Ii is one of the most natural
and, when taken under proper condi-
tions, one of the most pleasurable. 1t
puts in action all the organs and tends
to produce healthy blood. The lungs
become freshened with oxygen and the
brain grows clear. All the muscles are
exercised, that gentle degree of fatigue
is brought on which makes rest desir-
able, and ifa pleasant companion shares
the walk very agreeable stimulus is
given to the mind. But it is not every
man who knows how to walk, nor
every woman either, though Miss Won
lIillern's successful accomplishment of
one hundred and fifty miles in fifty
hours shows what women, properly
trained and with strong natural pedes-
trian capabilities, can expect TO do.
You should not walk just after Il meal
or without an end in view. If possible
select companion who enjoys pedes-
trianism and who is both intelligent
and good natured. Begin by walking
only little and extend your jaunts
day after day. The thing will pay in
the long run, Thousands of business
men might enhance their health and
prolong their lives by walking each day
to and from their places of business.
