A correspondent of the Country
Gentleman proclaims rye the great
pasture grass. He says: Rye can be
grazed for years all the season as a
permanent pasture grass. In a two

edge that rye had, in that country,
been regularly grazed as pasture
gras, for three years in succession, af-
fOrding good pasture to the end OF
that period. Rye is very hardy,
deep roofing and vigorous growing
grass, and grows freely and vigorous
~ on almost any soil, even when it
Is very difficult to grow the finer or
binary pasture grasses in dry seasons.
and since it takes several years to es-
tahlish good compact grazing soil
with the hest grasses, why is ii not
preferable to plant the hardy rye,
which can be grazed for five or six
seasons as readily as for two or three,

Half the burdens of life are caused
by worrying. And more than halfour
worrying is about the future. AS we
know nothing of the future, not even
one hour beyond the present. but can
only surmise and imagine. it follows
that by far the greater part of all our
worrying is simply about imaginary
things. Hence the folly of it. The
great difficulty, however, is that we
caunot help it by any direct effort of
the will. There is only one cure for
worry, and that is to work 50 hard
and so earnestly at our present task
as to haye no time for aught else and
to leave the future to God.

In MemOriam.

At a meeting of the Officers, teach
ers and scholars of the Ev. L. Sabbath
School. Sunday morning. Dec. 23d.
1883, the following preamble and res
olutiOns were unanimously adopted.
WHEREAS, 1t has pleased Almigh-
ty God in the wise dispensation of
His providence again to enter our
school, and take unto himself one Of
the Oldest and main supports of our
number, thus forcibly reminding US
of the uncertainty of life and the Ger.
tainty of death. Therefore:
Resolved. That in the death of our
esteemed Brother, ]. M. Arnold. our
school has lost one Of its most faith
full and CONSTANT members.
Resolved, That il is to US a source
of deep satisfaction that while in his
youth he gave his heart to God and
that when death approached. it had
no terrOrs for him, his last words, be-
ing in prayer, were for the Sunday
School.
Resolved, That in his home he was
a kind husband, and loving parent,
and here as elsewhere gave evidence
that he had "passed from death to
life" and was with the Lord.
Resolved. That as school we feel
the loss we have sustained and deep
ly sympathize with the bereaved
family yet while we mourn our loss,
1--WE sorrow not as those that have no
hope" but rejoice in the blessed pros
pect we have, if faithful and true to
God of meeting our brother again in
that better world. where there is no
parting nor sorrow.
RESOLVED, That weshould endeayOr
to profit by this sad visitation and
that sooner or later we too shall be
called to cross the dark river, and
that it behoovers US to follow the ex-
ample OF our departed brother, and
live in readiness for the summons,
whenever it may come.
Resolued. That this preamble and
resolutions be recorded in the minutes
of our school, that they be furnished
to the local papers for publication
and that the secretary of the school
be requested to furnish copy to the
family of the deceased.
