A clergyman who lately left Liverpool in
one of the huge ocean steamers began to feel
rather uncomfortable soon after leaving the
mouth of the river, and after having had an
introduction to the captain sought him out to
learn if there was any danger. The captain
did not answer Immediately, but led his pas
senger to the forecastle, and told him to listen
to what was going on. The clergyman was
shocked to hear party Of sailors swearing
vigorously, and expressed his horror to his
conductor. The captain merely remarked:
"Do you think these men would swear in
such manner if there was any real danger?"
whereupon the parson appeared satisfied and
retired.
A day or two afterward, when they en-
countered quite a severe storm, the clergy.
man, remembering what he had been shown
before, managed to make his way with great
difficulty to the forecastle, and was overheard
by the captain, as he came away, exclaiming
to himself: THANK God, they're swearing
yet!'

"Never marry a man who has only his love
for you to recommend him. 1t is very fasci-
mating perhaps. but it does not make the
man, and if he is not in other ways what he
should be, you never will be happy. On the
other hand, the most perfect man who does
not love you should never be your husband.
But, though marriage without love is terri.
BILE, love only will not do; for if the man is
given to vice, or is mean or dishonorable
with other men, the time will come when
you will either loathe him or sink to his level
1t is hard to remember amidst kisses and
praises, that there is anything else IN the
world to be done or thought of but love max
ing; yet the days of life are many. and the
husband must be trusted-a companion, a
friend, ss well as lover. Many girl has
married man whom she knew to be any,
thing but good, because he loved her so,
and the flame has died out on the hearthstone
of home before long and beside it there has
been sitting one that she could never hope
would lead her heavenward, or who, if she
followed him as a wife should, would guide
her steps amiss"

THE SILENT LIFE.

We lead two lives, the outward seeming fair
And full Of smiles that on the surface lie;
The other spent In many client prayer,
With thoughts and feelings hidden from the eye
The weary. wosry hours Of mental pain,
Unspoken yesrnings for the dear ones gone,
The wishes half def ued, yet crushed again,
Make up the silent life we lead alone.
And happy Visions we may never show
Gid all this silent life with sweet romance;
That they will fade like suuset's clouds we know,
Yet life seems brighter tor each stolen glance.
This silent life, little reck its power
To strengthen us for either good or Ill,
Whether we train our thoughts like birds t. soar,
Or let them wander wheresoe'er they will.
This silent life, not those we love may share,
Though day by day We strive to draw them close,
Our secret chsmber-none may enter there
Save that One Eye that never seeks repose.
Aud, II beneath that Eye we do not quail,
Though all the world may turn from aside,
We own a secret power that shall prevail
When every motive Of our lite is tried.

LOSING AND LIVING.

Forever the sun is pouring his gold
On hundred worlis that beg aud borrow;
His warmth he squauders on SUBMITS old,
His wealth on the HON . of want aud sorrow;
To withhold his Isrgess Of precious light
Il to bury himself In eternal night.
To give
Is to live
The flower shines not for itself az all;
Its 10y is the joy IL freely diffnses;
OF beauty and bsln, it Is prodigai,
Aud it lives in the light IL freely loses;
No choice for the rose but glory or doom,
To exhale or smother, to wither or bloom.
Todeny
Is to die.
The seas lend silvery rain to the land,
The land its sapphire-stresms to he ocean,
The heart sends blood to the brain OF Command,
The brain to the heart its lightning motion;
And ever and ever we yield our breath,
1ill the mirror is dry ana images death.
To give
Is TO live.
He ia dead whose hand Is not opened wide
To help the need of q human brother;
He doubles the length of hi- lifelong ride
Who gives his fortunate place to another;
And a thousand million lives are his
Who carries the world in his sympsthies.
To deny
Is TO die.
