"Why?'
"Why, because he has been working

At this one OF the men began TO
chuckle. Then the ehuckle ran into a
laugh, and finally he had to sit down.
"What's the matter with you?' was
asked
"Why, Im-Im that wOmans hus,

WHAT L LIVE FOR.

/ live for those who love me,
Whose hands are kind and true;
For the heaven that smiles above me,
And awaits my spirit too;
For all human ties that bind me,
For the task my God assigned me,
For the bright hopes left behind me
And the good that can do.
live to learn their story,
Who suffered for my sake
To emulate their glory
And follow in their wake,
Bards, patriots, martyrs, sages,
The noble of all ages,
Whose deeds crown hiStory's pages,
And times great volume make.
live to hold communion
With all that is divine;
To feel there is union
'Twixt natures heart and mine;
To profit by aflliction,
Reap truth from fields OF fiction,
Grow wiser from conviction
And ill each great design.
l live to hail that season
BY gifted mind fOre:old,
When men shall live by reason,
And not along by gold;
When man tO man united,
When every wrong thing righted,
The whole world shall be lighted
As Eden was Of Old.
l live for those who love me,
For those who know me true,
For the heaven that smiles above,
And awaits my spirit too;
For the cause that lacks assistance,
For the wrong that needs resistance,
For the future in the distance,
And the good that | can do.

A WoRD FOR WIvEs.-Many women,
saws Harriet Beecher Stowe. suppose
that they love their husbands, when,
unfortunately they have not the begin
Ming OF an idea what love is Let me
explain it to you, ny dear lady. Loving
to be admired by man, loving to be
petted by him and loving to be praised
by him, is not loving a man. All these
may he when a woman has no power Of
loving at all--they may all be simply
because she loves herself, and loves 10
be fattered, praised, caressed, coaxed-
as a cat likes TO be coaved, and fed
with cream. and have a warm corner.
But all this is not love. 1t may cE-
ist, 10 be sure, where there is love; il
generally does But It may also exist
where there is noloye. Love, my dear
ladies, is selfsacri6ce, il is life out Of
self and in another It's very essence
is the preferring Of the comfort, the
case. the wish of another 10 ones own
for the love we bear them. Love is
giving, and not receiving. Love is not
a sheet Of blotting paper or a sponge,
sucking in everything to itself; it is an
out springing fountain, giving from il
self. Loves motto has been dropped
in this world as chance gem OF great
price by the Iovliest, the fairest, the
purest; the strongest Of lovers that ever
trod this mortal earth, OF whom it is re-
corded that lie said: at is more blessed
to give than 10 receive" Now, in love,
there are ten receivers TO one giver.
There are ten persons in this world who
like to be loved, and love love, where
there is one who knows how TO love.

EVERY LADDER Has Two ENDs.-
When a small boy, was carrying not
avery large ladder, when there was a
crash. An unlucky movement had
pruuguu tirv -A-,A OF 49,, lalI""
against window. Instead of scolding
me my father made me stop and said
very quietly: Look here, my son, there
is one thing l wish you to remember;
that is, every ladder has two ends. |
never have forgotten it, though many
years have gone. Don't we carry things
besides ladders that have two eDds'
When I see a young man getting fast
habits ! think he sees only one end OF
the ladder, the one pointed toward
pleasure, and that he does not know
that the other is wOunding his parents
hearts. Many young girl carries
ladder, while the end she does not see
is crushing medesty and friendship as
she goes along thoughtessly among
the crowd. All yes, ever ladder has
two ends, and it is a thing to be remem-
bered in more ways than one.
