And the largest rent is mended:

And b highest wall is made:

So the little coral workers,
By their slow and constant motion,

And the nobtest undertakings
Mans wisdom hath conceived,
BY oft repeated effort
Have been patiently achieved.
Then do not look disheartencd
On the work You save to do.
And say that such a mighty task

Home Politeness,

a boy who is polite to his father and
mother is likely to be polite to every one
else. A boy lacking politeness to his pa,
rents may have the resemblance of courtesy.
Ia society, but is. never truly polite in spirit,
and is in danger, So he becomes familiar. of
betrayiag his renl want of courtesy. We
are all in danger of living too nseh for the
outside world, for the impression which we
make 10 society, eoVesing the good opinions
OF those who arc in a seuee a part Of our
selves, and who will continue to sustain and
be Interested in US, Notwithstanding these
defects of doportment and character.
We say to every boy aud to every girl,
cultivate the habit of courtesy and propristy
at home-in the sitting room and kitchen as
well as in the parlor, aad you will he sure in
other places to deport yourself in a bccom-
Jag acd attractive manner. When one has
a pleasant smile and a graceful dcmesuor. il
Is a satisfaction to know that those are not
put on, but that they belong to tho char
ae'er, and are manifest at all times and un-
der all eircumstanocs.
