In Scotland there is u branch OF
the legal profession known as
"Writers to the Signet " A young
gentleman was apprenticed to one
of these writers. The youth thought
himself n very fine sort of person,
much above ordinary apprentices.
One evening the master desired
him to carry n bundle Of papers to
u lawyer whose residence, was not
very far of. The packet was re-
ceived in silence, md in few
minutes the youth walked out, fol
lowed, and overlook the porter car
rying the parcels. Selling his hat
the master followed, and overlook
the porter, relieved him of the
packet, and walked in the rear OF
the apprentice. The lawyers house
being reached and tho door bell
rung, tho youth called out
"IIere, fellow, give me the par
celr' and slipped a sixpence in his
hand without looking around"
"Hcre it is for you |" exclaimed
voice which caused the youth to
turn around. His confusion, as he
beheld his master made him
speechless. Never after that was
he above his business. Il Youth's

The Methodist Recorder says
"Work is the law of our being
the living principle that carries men
and nations upward. The greater
number of men have to work with
their hands as O matter of necessity,
in order to live; but all must work
in one way or another, if they
would enjoy life as it ought to be
enjoyed. Labor may be burden
and chastisement, but it is also an
honor and a glory. Without 1t
nothing can be accomplished. All
that is great in man comes through
work, and civilization is its product.
Were labor abolished, the race Of
Adam were at once stricken by
moral death.
