Let Them Work.

Bishop Simpson, in one Of his Yale lee
lures, urged that activity be secured in all
the church-members, and in so doing he said
Active work is also necessary to give to
each congregation unity and harmony. An
inefficient congregation is usually trouble
some one. Among unemployed people dis
cords and st'ife are sure to enter. The
familiar lines of DIR. Watts G Satan finds
some mischief still for idle hands to do }
are illustrated everywhere. There are men
in every congregation who are exceedingly
troublesome. They annoy the people and
the minister They have an immense
amount of surplus energy which is seeking
for employment Such persons need extra
work, and must have it to be kept quiet.
In one of DIR. Chalmers ragged schools in
Glasgow there was a boy who could not be
controlled, and was a constant interruption
to the school. After bearing long with
him, it was resolved to expel him. The
superintendent of the school, seeing ele-
ments of power in the boy, pleaded for one
more trial. 1t was before the days of gas,
or even of kerosene lamps, and the school.
room was lighted with common candles
These were placed on movable stands, such
as were formerly used by shoemakers, and
which consisted of an upright stick fastened
into square board with an opening in
the top of the stick, through which piece
of leather was drawn that held the candle
The candles needed frequent snufliug, and
so the superintendent appointed this uncon
trollable boy general candle-snutfer. From
the commencement of his work change
came over him. lie entered into his work
with spirit, and became one of the best boys
in the school. lie only needed TO be em

seat to a plain looking woman who entered,
and another to colored woman. Once
saw ex-Representative Charles Foster get
into full car where four little colored girls
sat in demure row of course none OF
them offered to rise, for they are very ten
acious of all their rights and privileges. He
looked quizzically along the dusky row, then

Bashful Men.

We never saw bashful man who was not
the soul of honor. Though such may blush,
aud stammer and shrug their shoulders
awkwardly unable 10 throw forth with ease
the thoughts that they would express, yet
commend them to use for friends. There
are fine touches in their characters which
time would mellow aud bring out percep-
tions delicate as the faintest tint is to the
unfolding rose and their thoughts are none
the less refined and beautiful that they do
not flow with the impetuosity of the stream
let We are astonished that such men are
not appreciated-th ladies with really
good hearts and cultivated intellects will re-
ward the gallant Sir Mustachio Brainess
with smiles and attention because he can
fold a shawl gracefully, and handy compl-
ments with Partisan elegance, while they
would not condescend to look upon the
worthier man, who feels for them rever
ence so great that his every glance is wor-
ship. The man who is bashful in the pres
ence of ladies is their defender when the
loose tongue of the slanderer would defame
them; il is not he who boasts of conquests,
or dares to talk of failings that exist in the
imaginations alone; his cheek will flush
with resentment, his eyes flash with anger
to hear the name of woman coupled with a
coarse oath yet he who would die to defend
them is least honored by the majority of the
female sex. Who ever heard of bashful
libertine? The anomaly was never seen,
Ease and elegance are his requisites upon
his lips sit fattery, ready to pay court to
blue eyes and black; heis never non-plnssed
he never bushes. For glance he is in
rapture, for word he would professedly lay
down his life. Yet it is he who fills our
dens with wrecks of female purity; it is he
who profanes the holy name of mother
desolates the shrines where domestic happi-
ness is throned; ruins the heart that trusts
in him polutes the very air he breathes
and all under the mask of a polished gentle.

you lovers and would you possess worthy

him TO stand aloof, while others stand around
you. If he bushes, stammers even at your
approach, consider them as many signs of
his exalted opinion of your sex. If he is re.

tunes weigh him down in the balance; for,
depend upon it, with him your life will be
happier with poverty than with many

Health and Wilderness.

In working for the health of the soul, we
must regard many things. All the healers
in the world are co-workers and to keep a
man in perfect health, no good influence of
any kind can be spared. To he healthy in
any particular and remain so, it becomes
necessary to be healthy on all sides. II a
man says, g" | will not lie, nor swear, nor
steal, but | mean to get something for moth
ing every time find man foolish enough
to stake his money on a slow horse that
man is like an apple with rotten speck in
it-he will before long be diseased to the
core. And if man says, " | mean to edu-
cate my children in art, and science, and
literature; but as for the spiritual educa-
ton they talk so much about nowadays,
that's all nonsense" he will probably live to
see his mistake. His children will grow
up undeveloped on what ought to be their
strong side, and disease will creep in there,
and its baleful influence will show on all
sides of their character. On the other hand,
the monk who, despising bodily health, and
throwing away his social nature, attempts to
attain perfect health of soul by going out
into the desert alone to mediate on spiritual
and divine things, makes the same mistake
on the opposite extreme, and his very spirit
itself will become diseased and dwarfed, be-
cause he neglects all his other faculties.-

doubt and uncertainty, without anchorage

81 have no objection TO holding on, but will
you tell me what to hold on byy" Here is
question which men do well to consider
before they reach the closing scene. II they
are to hold on, what are they to hold on by 2
Where is their trust Where is their con-
fidence? What certainty have they as they
go down into the shadows Surely man
who comes TO his dying hour needs some
thing better than infdelity can give him
he needs the guiding hand of him who is
the resurrection and the life, who has CON
quered death and triumphed over the grave,
and who is able 10 bring Us safely off at last.

OF the soul, both sure aud steadiast, and
which entereth into that within the veil"-
