A Troublesome individual.

The employee who is afraid of doing
too much is not the sort Of man who
ever becomes very valuable to his en-
ployer or to himself. His aim seems
to be to do just enough to save him
from censure or dismissal. He saun-
tiers instead of walking; he does every
thing with sort of lackadaisical air, as
if he were performing q great act of
condescension in waiting upon you at
all he says yes and no as If every
letter cost dollar, and they were the
last he had; he gazes out of the door,
away off yonder. while you ask him q
question. and then fortunes you with
Yes or NO; he never eondescends to
correct your mistakes, if you make
one; or, if he does, it is with the tone
of one vastly superior to your humble
and unworthy self, and excites in you
q determination to have as little to do
with him as possible; he makes all his
preparations for departure before the
hour, SO that not q minute of his own
time is lost; be does as he is told, but
no more; he never thinks of how he can
advance his employers interests, In some
unbidden way, and has not brains
enough to know that when cultivating
the habit OF thought of the business of
his employer he is laying up capital
and strengthening his own resources
for the time when he shall start bust
nest of his own. There are many such
clerks as this. but may their tribe
diminish.

The Rose of Sharon.

The rose of Sharon is one of the
most exquisite flowers in shape and
hue. It's blossoms are bell-shaped, and
of many mingled bues and dyes. The
history of thus flower is legendary and
romantic in the highest degree. In the
East, throughout Syria, Judea, and
Al abba, it is regarded with the pro-
foundest reverence. The leaves that
encircle the round blossom dry and
close tight together when the season of
blossom il over, and the stalk whitening
completely away from the stem, the
flower is blown away, at last, from the
bush on which it grew, having dried up
in the shape of ball, which is carried
by the sport of the breeze to great dis
tances. In this way, it is borne over
sandy wastes and deserts until at last,
touching some moist place, it clings to
the soil, where it immediately takes
fresh root and springs to life and beauty
again For this very reason the ORR
entails have adopted it as an emblem of
the resurrection

A Talk with Young Men.

Observe that pale young fellow cross

Did you notice the thing he was car

could not touch bottom with his pole. He
jumped toward the shore hoping to fall into
shallow water. but it was some twelve feet
deep. When he jumped it sent the raft
