o. SUNSHINE.
Broad and bright the sunshine
On the terrace lay,
Touching with an equal ray,
In equal gladness to illume
Violet-bed and yewtree gloom.
Yet within the silent room
Dimly rose the day.
Merrily the sunshine
Caught the upper pane, ..s
But as yet it strove in vain,
With its glitter to surprise
The yearning in the lady's eyes,
Who. lonely, meath the sweet Spring skies,
Fought life's long fret and strain.
Lower crept the sunshine
Down the lattice tall,
Till it saw its radiance fall
All along the silent floor,
Past the heavy close-shut door,
Through the room that knew no more
- Light step or CHEEKY call. t 'a.
The triumphant sunshine,
Flooding all 1t saw,
Laughed at last her gaze to draw,
From where the phantoms Of the past
An eternal shadow cast;
And her glances fell at last,
AS in breathless awe.
Where the glorious sunshine,
Danced, and shone, and giowed,
Wnefe tne LrestSlIeu RiSluio 'io"N"
The tall cross that stood above
All her best of life and love,
And mid her bitter sorrow stroVe
10 point the higher road.
"And," said the happy sunshine,
'Oh heavy eyes that mourn,
Oh! heart, from it's chief moorings torn,
Look at the Joy with which he dowers
The Weakening earth and budding flowers;
Trust to the God of sunny hours,
Nor dare in griefs keen scorn
ITO turn away from sunshine;
Nor in the sense of loss,
With reckless hand aside to toss,
The comforting through nature given,
Thetrials of our way to heaven.
See how the brightest gleam from heaven
Clings longest round the cross

A WONDERFUL INvENTIoN.-The Legge
patent sends as many words over single wire
in minute as the most skillful Morse opera
tor can send in an hour, delivers at the recely-
ing station a fac simile of the copy furnished,
and does it all without the help of skillful
operator. Anybody who can turn crank can
send message, in his own handwriting, with
any private marks or other devices he pleases
simply by first writing his message on chem
ically prepared piece of paper furnished by the
company. Practical trials of this apparatus
have shown speed of $500 words minute,
but it can be enlarged so as to do even better.
A morse operator who can send or receive
1000 or $500 words an hour can command the
highest salary, and even then there is nothing
to guarantee him against making a mistake-a
thing which by the Legge process is impossl-
ble Pictures can be transmitted in this way,

. THE INFLUENCE OF GREAT EXAMPLE,
One communion Sunday an old Kentucky SOL
dier who fought under Gen. Jackson at New
Orleans, and knew we'll what manner of man
he had been in his fighting days, attended the
Hermitage Church and saw the aged warrior
kneel reverentially before the altar. He was
transfxed with astonishment. After the ser
vice was over he was observed to be unusually
silent and thoughtful, and upon being ques-
toned, related what he had seen. He con-
cluded his narrative thus:
ssWhen 1 saw the man who had fought
armies, parties cabinets and had never fought
without conquering, get down on his knees III
that church, 1 said to myself, We'll, when
General Jackson kneels, 1 tell you, boys, l
think it about time for me to knock under. "
Four weeks AFTER ne joined the church, and
lived and died a pious, exemplary member.

DANGEROUS CoMPANIoNs.-When young
man has made up his mind to walk on the
edge of precipice for the sake of seeking pros
poets, he always finds plenty of company. There
are abundance of people with strong heads,
who, having walked these paths until they are
quite certain of their foot hold, are ready to
90 out with new beginners If they acciden-
tally lose their heads and fall over, whose
fault is that? Not theirs, of course. They
never fall. They look where they step, and
their heads do not turn. 1t is not drunkards
and thieves who are dangerous companions to
the green boys just in from the country. On,
dear, no! 1t is your respectable young men
that have learned to sip discreetly in all sorts
of forbidden fountains, and nibble here and
there carefully of the forbidden fruit. They
are held as pattern. They drink, but are
never drunk. They have exactly the knack OF
seeing and knowing all that is to be known, in
the ways of wickekness, and yet keeping every
step with the righteous. Some OF them are
church members and Sabbath-schOol teachers;
some are regular shrewd business men. They
are never going to hurt themselves they tell
you, but they believe in certain freedom.
They never could see the sense of temperance
pledges. For their part they don't need them,
and if there is anything they abominate, it is
your radical, straight-laced people, who keep
always in the dusty turnpike for fear OF the
precipice

SUNSHINE AND SLEEP.-Sleepless people
and there are many in America-should court
the sun. The worst soporifc is laudanum,
and the very best sunshine. Therefore, it is
very plain that poor sleepers should pass as
many hours as possible in the sunshine, and as
few as possible in the shade. Many women
are martyrs, and yet they do not know it.
They shut the sunshine out of their houses
and their hearts, they wear wells, they carry
parasols, they do all possible to keep off the
subtlest and yet the most potent influence
which is intended to give them strength and
beauty and cheerfulness Is it not time to
change this, and so get color and roses in our
pale cheeks, strength in our weak backs, and
courage in our timid souls? The women OF
America are pale and delicate; they may De
blooming and strong, and the sunlight VIII De

Architecture for Women.

There is one branch of labor which ha
always seemed to me to be peculiar v
suited to women, which as yet they have
approached refer to architecture Who
so well as woman knows how house
ought to be arranged to make it con-
venient for doing work? Who has finer
sense of beauty and the fitness of things
1t seems to me that the work of the archi-
tect is one which, ia many respects, is
peculiarly womanly. Drawing and plan
ming houses is useful and beautiful art,
akin to sculpture and painting, in which
women have already had cheering success
1t is kind of work which does not soil
ones dresses, and, being kind of mental
labor, is certainly on par with teaching
1t is work which lowers ones social
speaking after the fashion of
current false notions-less than almost
any other, not excepting that of the teach
er. Women have shown peculiar liking
for the fine arts, and have done them
selves credit in their pursuit; why should
they not in architecture the oldest of all
arts? A beginning has been made Some
women have entered upon the work, and
others who follow will find pleasant
and remunerative field for their activity. =
